  • Hi with the engine conversion nearly done, it’s time to start working on the rust issues I’ve found on the van (More than I thought it had 😫) So in this video I removed the rusty rotten outriggers and start the prep to fit the new ones. Hope you enjoy the video and thanks for watching.

    Please Subscribe to my channel - I have lots of machines which means going forward I will never be short of content, lots of my videos are small engine related but I do have bigger vehicles to which I also like to work on and improve.
    JUST TO NAME SOME-
    2x Land Rover Defenders, Subaru Impreza WRX Turbo Wagon, VW T4 Transporter, Ford Transit Campervan.
    5x Puch Maxi Mopeds, a Lambretta Scooter, a Yamaha MX100 motorcycle.
    Also lots and lots of garden power equipment. All this will give me years and years of content, so with all that it makes my channel well worth Subscribing to 😀
    A bit about me I grew up around engine’s as my dad was always a car mechanic and that’s how I learnt about them and liked working on engine’s. As the years have gone on my passion for working on engines has grown even more, unfortunately for me my dad slowed down working on cars when I was around 20 in the 90s, So the career I always thought I would have didn’t materialise and I become a gardener, but what do gardeners use? Power tools so that’s when I learnt all about power tools small engine, 80% of my work tools Mowers, Strimmers, Hedge Trimmers, Blowers were bought secondhand and most of them broken and I fixed them up. Most have been high end tools, Honda, Stihl, Kubota, Kawasaki, Husqvarna etc etc the list goes on I’ve worked on loads and usually managed to fix tools that were destined for the scrap heap. I have learnt so much and I pass a massive amount of that on in my videos, so watching my video could save you a small fortune in repair bills, so another great reason to subscribe to my channel.
    Going forward I have plans to faze out my day job and work with the engine stuff much, much more that’s my dream, I also like restoring machines as well. So I’m always adding more and more tools to help me along the way. So the more support I have on CZcams means that my dream may come sooner than I think it will 🤞 I’ll do my bit with the video if you can do your bit to help it could be a great journey forward, thank you for watching my channel I massively appreciate it 🙂👍

    I know that has to be a pain but you will have it sorted out wow that is alot of rust

    • @menditman2004
      @menditman2004  Před rokem

      There was more than I thought, but at least I’ll know it’s solid when I’ve fixed it. Car do rust quite a lot over here in the U.K. and the van is 25 years old, I’ve seen these vans a lot worse than this one, thanks for watching 🙂👍

    Once you get that back together it's gonna be solid and good for as many years you're going to keep it ! Can't wait for the next one 👍

      Hi I’ve had the van since 2008 so it a keeper, I’ll sort it but these things are time consuming so it might take a little while, but I have made progress since this video (video coming soon ) I’ll just chip away and get it done, thanks for watching 🙂👍

      Hi Gary, you not wrong there, but it’s not to bad just a time consuming job, thanks for watching 🙂👍

  • @menditman2004
    @menditman2004  Před rokem

    Hi I can’t give up on it now after I’ve done all the engine work, it will take a bit of time and I am working my way through it ( videos to come) At least I’ll know it’s solid afterwards, ani’s for watching 🙂👍

    Rust is a pain in the arris, it’s never as small a hole as you think. Be as good as new once your done.

    • @menditman2004
      @menditman2004  Před rokem

      Hi I’m not sure as good as new but it will be tidy and solid and that’s the main thing, thanks for Watching 🙂👍

    The problem with the outriggers/inner wing area seems to be due to no scuttle water drain pipes being fitted from the factory , there’s a kit you can get to retro fit these or just weld in barb fittings and use hose pipe

    • @menditman2004
      @menditman2004  Před rokem

      Hi your spot on, it seems such a daft design not to have the pipes fitted from new. I will sort something so it can drain off, thanks for the advise 🙂👍

    Hi mate lot of work is it worth doing but they make a lot of money

    • @menditman2004
      @menditman2004  Před rokem

      Hi it will be worth doing for me, whether it would be to sell on atm I’m not sure, but they are going up in valley and the engine conversion I’ve done does make it more appealing to a lot of people, but I’ve never thought about selling it as I’ve had it so long. I like it at least when it’s done I’ll know it’s solid, thanks for watching 🙂👍
