You know during times of anxiety there is something calming about watching someone breakdown, clean and re assemble an engine with dirt as a workshop and sandals as footwear. Hope for us yet.
Love watching these guys do this sort of strip downs. No fancy workbench or tons of specialist gear, just a basic tool set, an old wheel & a couple of bits of wood to chock it up
a tue mechanic doesnt use gasket makers coupled with gaskets, a true mechanic doesn't reuse old crankshaft and head studs, a true mechanic doesn't invert the tightening sequence of the screws, a true mechanic doesn't put new valves on an engine without wearing the seat and check if it does vacuum, and the list goes on
I love this guy. Hand tools and a work bench and he can rebuild anything. At least he has been using a torque wrench as of late and on the bike engines I have seen him rebuild/reassemble he had no machine shop work done to them. I would have been worried had he not taken this one to a machine shop before re-assembly considering its a car engine and not just a little 4 or 2 valve small engine he normally showcases. Also notice he replaced the freeze plugs after he painted the block. This guy is doing his best to do things right. He's better than most mechanics I know in the US lol.
Клапана еще бы притёр и было бы лучше, а так они прогорят через пару тысяч километров, и масло за место dikstron 3 5-10 w 40 нужно, которое он залил в коробку автомат льют.
I rebuild engines meticulously in my shop, all machine work done at a race shop. After watching this guy carefully, he used all good practices and updated technologies such as rings, machine finish, and head gaskets/seals. I would absolutely trust this "old generation" engine rebuild for 100,000 miles, at the very least.
i've noticed the torque wrench as well. most of the "mechanics" that work for the dealerships in my area has no idea what i'm talking about when i explain to them.
Given that he rebuilt this engine in a dusty backyard with chickens running around, etc, he did quite a decent job on that engine. A couple of things were missed. Didn't see the ring gaps being checked or the main and big end bearing clearances checked (with good old fashioned plastigauge or flexigauge). But he may have done these and not filmed it. I did see that he used a micrometer to measure the journals. He didn't oil the piston rings before inserting the pistons into the bores. Also not sure if the head was resurfaced or the valve seats redone, but he probably did do this as overall he seemed to know what he was doing, like extensive use of a torque wrench. So, even with limited facilities that Lancer motor will probably run perfectly for years to come. Great little video.
ring sizes checked at 8:08 (dont see why else he would test fit them in there). Didn't oil rings, but oiled bores at 8:47. Camshaft and lifters had definitely been serviced and that wasn't filmed, so I imagine he did a full head service off camera. We only see bottom end and bore serviced in video.
He didn't check the end play so hope that was OK, also the block and head needed resurfacing and the valve seats didn't really look good! A waste of time doing a full rebuild without doing any of that..
actually, I think he tries to show us, he did something, I mean he did engine overhaul. some step missing actually in this video, NOT perfect but NOT bad. Do this Video Again WIth Fully Details with using OME spec. last time you did but not enough. Use your camera suitable Angles. Please work with a clean environment, equipment, Use safety Equipment because this video is watching students and so many people, they will follow you, you will be a model for your society anyway, will see you next time with a perfect video. good luck
Well I don’t think this was an actual engine rebuild video, maybe his meaning of restoration is different from yours. And another big factor that could come into play is they probably don’t have the budget or accessibility to certain important things. Just enjoy the video :)
MITSUBISHI magic. Wow, you guys are mechanical wizard. I am amazed that you guys wear fancy shirts and do serious dirt work and don't get dirty, a true master craftman.
So I went from watching dudes building pools in the middle of the jungle to watching dudes with flip flops restoring engines. What a great time to be alive.
Looks like they are from South India may be Kerala OR Karnataka ...... I must say they know what they are doing ..... I am really impressed ..... Practical knowledge is what matters and they have that ..... I have seen people who know a lot in theory but don't know a thing when you ask them to implement it :-)
@@JAfonsoNunesMartins10 Just record yourself taking everything apart and if you get stuck you can watch what you did to take it apart and just put it back together using that
It's funny that people rebuild every nuance of an engine, only to create new problems down the road. I've worked in the power industry and if these were valves or turbines, a careful inspection before returning a part or assembly back into service is always the first choice. If it isn't wearing, that's the first thing you leave be.
He's so good at what he does, it's a joy to watch! The reborn engine rejoices! I'm glad you took such good care of my Japanese car engine! Thank you very much! From the Japanese
In Sri Lanka Japanese cars and motobikes are best selling and people love to keep them running they just every last penny for it. Japanese cars and bikes are the best.. good market in Sri Lanka
I wonder what the milage was on that engine? I love to see things being used to the fullest. If it's broken, fix it. If it's not broken, use it until it is, and then fix it. I rode an old Honda XR250 Baja around Sri Lanka, and that bike had seen some miles on it. The clutch went in Dambulla and a mechanic came up from Negombo on a bus and we swapped the plates out together by the roadside. I bought him some breakfast and he hopped back on a bus back home whilst took the road to Trinco. Love Sri Lanka. Loved that Baja as well. Good times.
Your channel is simply the best Sri Lanakan RU-vid Channel, bar none! As an amateur mechanic my self, I'm beyond impressed. I think you're probably one of the most gifted mechanics anywhere in the world. Keep building stuff
Amigo, que trabajo más impresionante, excelente, una maravilla de restauración de un motor felicidades. muy buen video, gracias por compartir. disculpa que no hable tu lengua
Excellent engine for its time, very reliable and quite powerful. The Hyundai Pony MKI also used it. The first Hyundai ever built. My grandfather had it in Greece.
For some, they lose more money even having this done for them much less doing it themselves instead of just junking it and getting a new... whatever this came out of!
TENNSUMITSUMA the thing is with doing what this guy did you’ve seen every part of your engine and you know it’s perfect unlike buying a used one. And for the people who want performance this is how you do it you take it apart you add performance pistons and all the other goodies crank shaft etc.
If only engines were this easy to disassemble and assemble. You straight up PULLED the crackshaft pully off with your fingers.... So well done editing the video. Looks good and is entertaining.
i have seen this, i lived in Sri Lanka for some years and i had an old 1960 mitsubishi jeep (4DR5) the mechanic was amazing about what he could fix and not replace, we in the west truly waste a lot.
The problem with some of you people from these so called developed countries.... Think that people from other places, like Africa, South East Asia, The Caribbean and Latin America are some backward bush whack people with no Brains, quite the contrary. You could learn a thing or two.
This is very informative video, the mechanic is well organized a systematic in everything he do. i love seeing more video tutotials from you.thank you for sharing..
I’m actually quite impressed with this overhaul. He seems to know what he’s doing. Not sure if he used plastiguaged the crank and checked the ring gap but this engine looks like it’ll run for quite awhile.
Those were the engins I knew growing up back in the early 80s very straightforward none of this high-tech nonsenses. One thing to note is you should have the cooling system connected. because a Engine that is rebuilt tend to run more hot since everything is tight and the piston rings need a break in period. But overall great video!
Very TRue Ricardo .... This engine is really old still uses traditional Ignition Coil with Primary and Secondary coil ..... Ignition Cable too ....... That is my concern too that they ran the engine without Cooling System .... I guess they have only run it for few minutes not hour ;-)
Thanks YT algorythm ... 20 mins well-spent .. Remarkable work & craftmanship, mad respect & thumbs-up (i seriously can't believe why so many dislikes on this vid) .. Cheers
