- So in this episode i started working on the engine. It runs pretty good, the timing chain was changed not long ago, so i am glad that doesnt need to be tackled. However, the other parts were not so fresh, so i started with cooling system (radiator was recently changed too), auxiliary belts, tensioners and pulleys, new waterpump, vanos solenoid seals, i also got new oem hoses for the power steering reservoir, etc. Pretty happy with the end result, i think it all went well, if you liked it too, please consider subscribing ;-)
thank you!
Attention to detail is impeccable. Good show chap!
Much appreciated!
You Need To Pain Those Valve Cover's ASAP Keep Up The Great Work!
YES! that is next part on the list :-) thank you
excellent music for a video very relaxing ,thank you .
thank you!
This restoration is so cool, this has been my dream car since i was a kid
thank you, it should continue again over winter :-)
hope that is a new fan clutch as never put back a old on when you do a belt sevice as they are cheap replacement and could when they go wrong cause a catastrophic failure to the coolant systems, pipes and belts
of course, brand new OE. would not put back in the old one, when i have everything torn apart ;-)
Nice job! It's always a joy to see my E38's twin being given proper treatment and the magical tool called a steam cleaner being used too. One question though, so please correct me if I missed it. Did you replace the Transmission Cooler to Alternator coolant hose? That seems to be the stumbling block I'm hitting on mine when facing the same tasks to resolve a coolant leak.
heyyy, thank you so much! oh i love my steam cleaner, i would have to say it is the best tool i have in my garage for detailing..
transmission cooler to alternator coolant hose? :-O can you send me some part number? i dont think i have ever seen such line, transmission cooler lines are going in the small oil cooler and back.. alternator i didnt touch yet, it runs good so far, so i dont remember how the coolant is routed there :-)
nice
Wow Love It, Dope Job dope work 👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽
thank you :-)
Timing chains and vanos okay on this one? You were half way into the timing chain job with that much disassembly!
yes, timing chain was changed around 5000-7000km before that..
even if it wasnt, i dont think i would be brave enough to do that job on my own :-D
not to sound negative but i hope you replaced and didnt just clean the power steering reservoir theres a filter in there
I found that out recently :-O i didnt replace it, since i didnt know about it, but i should do it sometime down the line
@@TheFuxxoWorksGarage it happens, did your model come with Servotronic? it's like power steering but it makes the wheel light as a feather
I believe so, yea
