- In this video not much talking as to wanted to get the engine done. Clearly not all bit were filmed eg. Toorque the head but it was done. Thanks for watching we are now at 300 Subsribers which awesome!
Great Video Like the presentation. Presumably thats your dad giving support.
Yes, since i use his shed and tool i have a bit of an obligation to listen to some of his advice. I was wanting to make sure i had the distributor drive on right, although in the end there is plenty of adjustment on the distributor itself to make up for one tooth wrong
Superb job. Congratullations and keep those great skills 👍
Sounds good. Well done
Fantastic
nice one looking good
Great job
Thanks, nice video. Lube under the bolt's head besides its threads!! The ex rocker shafts & bearings/bushs were starting to look bad in 72 for some reason, clearance was opening up and I don't know why. I do know that the importer's warehouse in New Jersey had a HUGE box of new exhaust rockers on hand, while I'd never replaced one in almost 4 years. Good luck.
Great 😍👍
Hi Kraabs! Very great job!😛👍👍👍
Great to watch. You make it look so easy! Would love to do that to my own engine. Q: did you skim the head before putting back on?
Thanks for watching. Yeah Head skimmed and pressure tested, there is a maximum skim in the Manual we went over that a it was fine
Wow what a transformation. Are you self taught? Brilliant job
Are you self taught or a mechanic by trade? Wow what a transformation
Thanks for the Support, self taught alot about the make through reading and watching other CZcams videos. My father has also taught me a fair bit amd gives advice when needed
Please can you confirm the direction of rotation of the engine for me. I understand that it rotates Counter clockwise when viewed from the driving position with the engine installed in the car.
Thankyou
Hi Kraabs, great video! Thanks a lot for sharing. Which manual are you using, in the 1974 manual it seems not all info are available, for e.g. timing chain clearances.
That engine looked mint once you were done!! Always a great feeling to hear it start up for the first time!!
Im in Auckland and collecting parts for the restoration of my 1965 id19 . Where did you get your engine parts from?
Cheers,
Chris
Ordered most from Der Franzose, they seems to have a pretty good range. Auto France in Auckland is pretty good got a few non engine parts of him bit probably has lots of engine stuff too. I recently got a spare motor off trademe if you need any main components
Great thanks for those contacts. I'll look them up. My id19 looks alot like yours did. Lots of surface rust but not too much rot, and like yours i got no idea about why it stopped going so will need to pull it apart to find out.. how did you find out what to measure in the crank and pistons to work out what needed replacing?
Did I just see silicone being used for a sump gasket?
As per the 1974 repair manual
