I love Patti's little face sticking out the zipper
I love how you depict what we Argentinains call "the deep Argentina" (la Argentina profunda); the remote, isolated parts of the country away from the main cities. And also the way you show how kind people are everywhere you go in the country.
I know that Patti is the love of your life and that you take good care of her. I have noticed that when you strap her to the harness, the strap seems a bit short. It pulls the harness quite a lot when Patti is laying down on the seat. I think that she would be more comfortable if the strap was a little longer, so the harness doesn't shafe on her "arm pits" if you know what I mean. This is not a critique against you, just a suggestion to make her rides a little more comfy.
It's so great to see Patti looking less anxious and being playful....she really is a gorgeous girl ❤
Hey Legend. Might be a good idea to check your fuel system. Running in those countries there is a big chance of low quality and contaminated fuel. It seemed the engine was starving for fuel which means it could be several faults; contamination in the fuel tank covering the fuel pick up, restricted fuel filter, fuel tank vacuum because the tank isn't venting (but let it sit for a while and no vacuum is present similar to Tori's problem), a blocked screen where the fuel enters the carby after the fuel filter (not sure if Tori has one), contamination/water in the carby bowl or a fuel line that is failing. So rip the fuel tank off and check for contamination, if the tank has a breather make sure it isn't blocked (it may vent through the fuel cap like a motorbike), change the fuel filter (be good idea to cut the old one open to see how contaminated it is), check the condition of each fuel hose, ask the Tuk Tuk dealer in Bolivia if there is a carby inlet mesh screen and clean it if it has one, remove the carby bowl and check for contamination and clean if necessary. If the carby bowl is full of contamination you may need to strip the carby and clean it. Don't doubt yourself, this is all pretty straight forward and I can see you have the ability to handle it! Don't let a break down stress you out bud, that's when the adventure really starts and humanity will take care of the problem and you! Buen viaje Blue! Your Aussie mate in Asuncion.
Those countries? Big chance of low quality/contaminated fuel? I think you are stereotyping. I have never had fuel problems in my life in Argentina, nor in the southern countries I have traveled through.
Wouldn't the black spark plugs be more an indication of running too rich, rather than bad fuel?
low quality/contamined fuel in Arg ? wtf are you on?
Bro said Super 95 when he got gas lol we don’t even have that in the US.
We get only 87, 89, or 91 grade
@@JacyHowes RON vs AKI
You handled it perfectly and relaxed
It always works out
We had a crap day on the road in Ecuador yesterday, rain stray dogs and mountains vanishing in fog and it felt crappy. You are on a very different level of pain in the wilderness. Breaking down is no fun anywhere. What a day what a day.
I bet the fuel line going to the carb is getting hot and boiling the gas in the carb essentially vapor locking. The car sits it starts and runs fine. After getting hot again ur back to flooding issue.
Pull the back engine cover. Let the air get in and out. Keep her cool. ✌️
Keep a can of carburettor cleaner, if engine stop and won't start, remove spark plug and spray some into the engine, if it starts, you got fuel problems.
What a roller coaster ride couple of days, glad it all turned out good. So nice to see you back on the road enjoying your trip.
Always a little like that on the three wheel dream ahaha thanks for your support as always!
Gotta recheck your carb. It seems to be jetted wrong. You shouldnt have to pull over and let it cool all the time. The owner's manual has all the info you jeed to keep TorII running well
Don't throw away your old spark plugs. Find a shop in your travels and have a local repair shop clean up the old plugs and use them as backup parts if you experience the same problems again.
I kept them and cleaned them up good 🙌🏼
Can u clean them with fine sand paper?
Get some sandpaper or wire brush and clean up the spark plugs you pulled out because you can reuse them if you need ?
Woooo my happy place on Monday nights. 🤙🤙🤙🤙
Loving your journey. I hope you come through Phoenix when you get to the states. Can give you a place to park and stay.
Stay safe mate. 🙏✌
I just found your channel and look forward to joining you vicariously on your journey. Enjoy every moment…both good and bad. Patti is an awesome travelling companion to have.
So excited for your journey. Praying for you in all the highs and lows. When you come through Canada I hope wherever you travel along whether it’s the mountains or the prairies you have a nice warm place to sleep and hope that it’s summer by that time.
Hey mate. Keep those old spark plugs and hit em with the steel brush to clean em up so you can use them as spares later. As long as they still fire when connected to the plug there’s nothing wrong with em. Just a bit dirty. They will just get dirty on their own but if they get dirty quickly it could be because of shit fuel, or a bad fuel to air mix. Not a mechanic but I’ve fixed more lawnmowers than I ever intended to in my life.
Those black spark plugs mean you’re running rich. Might consider running some fuel system cleaner or a little bit of toulene through a tank.
Way to adapt and overcome!!! 👏🏽💜
Greetings from Redondo Beach 🇺🇸🇺🇸Glad the to see the vehicle worked and back on the road. Nice tourney drive🌷
Sounds like it could either be a fuel issue or an ignition issue. So it could be either bad fuel or water in the fuel system or maybe a bad coil that loses its ability to send current to the spark plug when it gets hot
The mechanics are pretty simple, finding parts not so much, maybe. Glad it was just plugs. Keep the old ones and scrape the crud off in case you need them later. ❤
Estás haciendo un viaje legendario. En cada video nos dejas más admirados. Nos encanta tu actitud. Que sigas con éxito
cool trip bro. if you came back to Bahia Blanca make a call ! I live here and always have a place to rest in my home/studio in the city center !
11:45 I see that my dad is not the only one crazy enough to do that kind of thing on a old Ka
HOLA AUSSIE BUENO GRAN VIAJE ESTAS HACIENDO¡ BUENA SUERTE X LOS CAMINOS DE DIOS¡¡.
Safe travels! I always have to mention the amazing humans you come across your travels. Keep traveling and giving us legends that amazing content!
Here I the Mohave desert were I am we are about to he 120 degrees or 48.88 Celsius can make any air cooled engine run wierd. I always had to put oil coolers on my air cooled motorcycles to keep them running. I am trying to buy an electric Cargo Tuk from China, will post unboxing if I get it worked out
About time Patti helped you with the chicks
Happy to see that the adventure is still going [somewhat] smooth! Keep up with the great content!
Hey guys in the comments, IDNK what do you think about our countries, but it's not like we are 3000 BC with leaded fuel, fuel is high quality, we have Shell stations for example if you don't trust local gas stations. There have been a really a low ammount of cases where owners of gas stations used to trick with lower quality fuel but it's really illegal and those ppl will get arrested fast.
One thing that happens more often is that YOU are not allowed to fuel your own vehicle like you do in your country, a guy who works for the gas station does it, and that means that there is a really chance of error like
Good luck!
Love it! Thank you for sharing!!
Hola Ryan no vemos mas videos tuyos desde Bahia Blanca. No has estado subiendo? Los extrañamos
Happy Sunday! What a day! What a day!!
What an amazing way too end off the week thank you man much love❤❤❤❤
Good luck 👍
Good morning My hero!
I hope you are doing great on your journey, I just wanted to share that you and Patti have been an absolute must for my morning routine. What are the chances of you doing 2 vids per week like you used to? Even if they are shorter
Reckon the real issue here is that Jets shirt. Can't expect anything to work properly wearing something that's so clearly cursed, man - seemed like Torii ran just fine after you changed out of that! :)
Love your adventures and attitude! You are making awesome content and music is super! Travel safe with Patti and Torii!
Thanks so much. Truly means so much!
Try to swing by the shop for an alternator
Nice video mate
AUSSIE ESPERO QUE CUANDO LLEGUES A CORDOBA PASES POR CAPITAL,ASI TE PUEDO REGALAR UN SALAME Y UN QUESO CORDOBÉS SALUDOS Y MUCHA SUERTE EN TU VIAJE BRO 💪💪💪💪
Yippee! It's aussie day.❤❤❤
Vapor lock
Check that
Would removing the back cover help Tori to run cooler???
Hello mate! My wife & I very much enjoy your content. A question occurs, how do you keep your food cold? Keep safe!
I just eat stuff within a couple of hours
Love sharing in your journey! A question I've always wondered, do you have an ice cooler or some sort you bring to keep your meat fresh?
Not yet but I don’t keep stuff outside too long
Hi Ryan (Is it your name?). I recommend having you a good plate of Locro in 9th of July. That is very good. Also one question, this was in March or April isn't it? Because it is too warm in the south. I guees you are at least two months late with the videos, could be? In that case maybe you are already in Uruguay or Brazil. Have a nice trip.
I thought this was the end of our journey i nearly died because of Torii but i always trust in God. I am just waiting for Torii to reach 100000 km then i promise i'll buy myself a tuk tuk
A little comment for the algorithms 👍
I thought you might change your fuil filter.
If it happens next time just tilt the side mirror a bit it would help u.
Want to buy Ryans heart?
Buy him bread.
Jeez I'm early! Judging by the title this video is probably gonna be pretty interesting. Gonna get some sleep and give it a watch when I wake up
Don't know how ..Bajaj makes best tuk tuks and bikes in india ..you could have just watched and indian garagge video ..to solve that problem
Fuel pump?
Hey your fuel filer cup ,twist off,
@11:00 95 octane? seems WAY too high for that engine... should be 87 or at most 91. Too much octane is not a good thing.
dude consider to change the tires it might get you in trouble
😊😊😊🚐
Love your videos, love your channel, but could you please be careful about swinging & swooshing us around so quickly? It makes me dizzy ever time I watch! I’m a huge fan…maybe just a little smoother & slower showing us everything? Cheers!
dont you look at engine check connection? you should hve tools and some basic engine knowledge.............
