Hope you have enjoyed all of the fixes, the rest are in Part 2 and in case you didn't make it to the end to see the link to Part 2, it is right here:- ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-T0wxFUUo9JU.html 🐎 🐎
Hey Edd, Part 2 is not on your "Videos" tab on RU-vid. It's only findable through this link or by looking up the Mustang playlist. Don't know if it was intentional, but wouldn't want you to miss out on any views. Cheers!
Edd you surprisingly make a convincing cowboy. 😀 Really enjoy your tutorials and repair videos. You explain everything just enough without ever talking down to your audience. You would make an excellent instructor at a technical school.
Been missing you Edd, last I tuned in you were working on that rusted out range rover, and fixing the chassis, good to see you back, and I downloaded the entire Wheeler Dealers Series so I can watch it anytime I like, what a great show that was as well, anyway carry on Amigo....Javi G.
Agreed, and I fully support his choice to not carry on with Wheeler Dealers when they wanted to change the format from a technical-based show to more of a drama-based show.
Great filming! Love those unusual camera angles and the lighting. Was nice to see almost the entirety of the visco fan removal. To be there for the full struggle.
Nicely packed trunk for the perfect road trip. Nice hose-age. Always delighted to learn things I never knew I'd want to know. Must 'ang out here more often. Ta.
Thank you for sticking with us, hoping to crack through jobs with a little more regularity, probably! I think Adam will be glad to finally have his car back too!!
Wouldn’t be bragging that your over 3000 years old, CIA and MI6 like to insert and probe things they don’t know 😂 just search the internet about government alien probing😂
Huge respect to Edd after years on Wheeler Dealers but if you're going to modernise a vintage car's cooling system by adding an electric fan, you might as well replace the old heavy brass/copper radiator with a lightweight aluminium unit. The aluminium unit would also be more effective at dissipating heat and keeping the engine cool.
1:28 you're welcome ;) "Well this would have been Episode 66 if the big lug hadn't done so many overdue jobs that the show needed to be cut in two. So this bit is now episode 65 and part part to of Episode 66 is now actually Episode 66 not the second half of Episode 65 which, if not cut in two, would have actually been Episode 66 because we would have published Episode 65 when we were supposed two two weeks ago!! Because you have bothered to read this far we might as well let you know that Episode 65 was going to be about Edd's driving bed car, Fast Asleep, which was repaired and spruced up for a pop video for a song by Mereki Beach called 'Wake Up Dead'. Don't worry, we'll go to the huge effort and expense of re-numbering that video (how about 67 or 68?) and will post it up in due course, maybe in the next few weeks..."
@@eddchina no worries. There is an industrial estate opposite my house & they have a few US cars over there. They sound great, not sure what they all are though. One is a Cadillac & I think a Lincoln as well. They fire them up & rev them a lot
Nice to see you Ed, best wishes to you, I could have done with your help, my bmw x5 had to have a timing chain replacement, and it's been an absolute nightmare!
Those golfball style dimples do not make the blade stiffer they infact make it quieter by changing the way the air flows over the blade so it's about aero/fluid dynamics not material strength Also why not use new hoses instead of the cruddy old ones also a new water pump wouldn't go a miss either
1:28 took me AGES to catch the screen message - and finally I read that the number sequences are out on the videos 65 and 66.. Got it - after about 20 tries to pause the video. Do I win anything ?
Wow, Edd’s talking a mile a minute! Take a breather sometimes 😆 that Mustang seems to have an excellent paint job. I’m coming around to gold in my old age 😏
Only just found you Edd, didn't know you had a channel, subbed. Thanks for all the knowledge you have bestowed upon us down through the years, this show is well edited too btw
Great video for an on going problem with all Mustangs. I have enjoyed a 65 and 68. The cooling solution for me was not electric, not very trust worthy. I used a stock 68 big block radiator ( 24 inch) and a high flow water pumps. Not all water pumps are created equal. I also, run a 195 temp value. Cars runs perfect with a/c and Florida heat. Keep up the good work
Edd I saw one of the Outspan cars at Custom Car show Crystal Palace around '72. Years later 3 of them were in a yard in South London rotting away for years I used to drive past
Edd, te sigo desde España me gusta mucho como explicas tus progresos en las recuperaciones de joyas sobre ruedas,cuando puedas haz una restauración de un coche de fabricación Española,seguro que todos los que te seguimos disfrutaremos mucho con tu trabajo.saludos.
Great video, good to see you back. However, on the Alternator wiring, you did the right thing wiring a new correctly sized cable, but you did not put in a inline high amperage fuse. This will protect in the rare happenstance the alternator or cable got shorted. Also, you disconnected the Alternator jumper harness and tucked the engine harness side of the inline connector above the crossmember. The main B+ of this connector will still be live, the Black/Yellow Wire. This is because it wires to the B+ side of the Starter Relay and is spliced with the main feed for the fuse panel. You either need to seal up that intermediate connector the alternator jumper connects to, or alter the wiring so that Black/Yellow circuit no longer has power. Also, the field circuit will be powered (White Wire) if the original regulator is plugged back in. Might want leave that unplugged.
Does it make a difference if the thermostat is mounted in the upper or lower hose? Also can you leave the stock fan in place and use both (with the electric fan as a “pusher”)?
😀👍🏿 YO the china man is still in the room..And I'm here for it. I'd love to be in his or anyone else like him circle of close friends for comradery and knowledge.
Fair enough, can’t argue with that. Hope you didn’t miss the galvanising and powder coating of the Range Rover chassis: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-aiKNTyWJ9AM.htmlsi=PKXykIdQG5LWnMMc ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-ychixOvaOl0.htmlsi=jrXRZX21LeLLsm3m

2 top tips. 1st.. unless you are presenting a pebble beach show car, source an Aluminium radiator, the reason is 2 fold . Although aluminium is thicker and can reduce thermal transfer, the aftermarket suppliers are able increase the surface area ( not overall size) for the coolant to properly do its job. Another reason for using aluminium is metal fatigue from the thermal cycling and exposure to the elements. Copper/brass unit WILL eventually corrode and de-laminate due to the cooling fins separating from the cooling tubes . 2nd one is placement of the fan switch. External switches like this SHOULD be either in the engine block or as close to the water pump exit side as possible. Having that switch at the pump or block ensures it will activate as the peak temperature of coolant exits the system .
