Replacing the engine in the Ram Promaster city project 

The attention to detail along with the sarcasm make your channel better than 99.9% of the garbage they put on tv! Keep these great videos coming Scott

I really enjoy the way you do your vids. No annoying music, just the sound of work being done with a thoughtful overdub of the procedures in editing.

I know you said you’re a mechanic, but I’ve gotten so used to seeing you do body work that is weird to see you take apart the drive train and put it back together, but enjoyed watching you work nonetheless. Always fun to watch another Vehcor video and it was fun to see Mr Spotty without the masking tape. Lol

the "clicks" of your "torque wrench" are priceless....

One thing i've learned over the years. Parts cars are awesome. There is always something you'll end up needing you didn't think you'd need.

Just got done work.. and it was hard eating dinner watching. Thanks for the laughs! Stay safe and be well.

Entombed Mr.Spotty instantly starts haunting the engine bay. Figures...

Starts without pissing fluids out everywhere... that's a win. Ship it! LOL

Ahhhh the Picasso of sarcasm,a Friday highlight😎

It’s funny that I give these videos almost better attention than the few tv shows I watch like Law and Order “Organized Crime”...etc.

Mr. Spottys friend the train rolls by... seems like Mr. Spotty wants a "indefinite vacation"🤣 Thanks as always for the comedic relief - I'm about to graduate and I look forward to this to destress each Friday!

Either you have an above excellent memory, or a rash of manuals. I would never remember which bracket went where. Another great job by Scott at Vehcor. Thanks for sharing.

Hello Scott, it's always a pleasure to follow your videos. I look forward to them every week! Roland from Belgium.

Mr spotty it's gona get motion sick there 😂

12:20 Mr Spotty's troll train when rolling by and blowing the horn outside the shop again! Naughty him!

that module on the weird double bracket is for the transmission, it's got the ZF logo on it. Thank you for another great video!

What a lovely little converter bolt access hole. For a minute I thought you were doing the old converter still bolted dismount.

I’m always impressed at the lack of cuss words. I can’t change my wiper blades without dropping half a dozen F bombs. Always look forward to Friday’s for these videos

No one wants melted nuts is the quote of the day. I'm glad I wasn't taking a drink of a beverage when you said that or it might have came out my nose!

You make it look easy, Scott, your skill is second to none, I work for a utility company in Northern Illinois, I swear I passed you in the dirtnali on Lamont rd , last week.

I like the get to the job without a ton of dramatic B.S. during the build. Down to earth. Plus it's good to see someone that knows what they're doing. Thanks.

Great video. Love your work ethic and attention to doing thing right.

I always look forward to your friday builds ! Nice job.

Its so satisfying when you do a job like this and it starts on the key,the other scenario is best not thought about but we've all been there 😀

I wait all week for your videos and they are definitely worth the wait!!!

I could really use a stupid shield. You should sell those!

Lovely Jubbly, humour is to die for.

Thank you. Never delete your channel/videos 🙌

Scott, I must commend you for all you know in tearing down something and being able to put it back together. I know you have a system or even you couldn't do it.

27:40 The support bracket is for if the exhaust pipe breaks for some reason, the it will not hit the ground and get tangled up under the car.

It's the ZF TCM for the 9HP48 transmission. It's made in Greencourt for ZF and Chrysler make it under licence. Same transmission fundamentals are used in Land Rover Discovery Sport and Range Rover Evoque. In the Land Rover applications, it pulls away in 2nd and uses 1st as a low gear off road. The Chrysler version pulls away in first and probably never sees 9th.

Thank you Vehcor, very cool.

Wow putting an engine and trans in a vehicle and the leaves on the trees were the same color when you finished as when you started. I think I need to step it up a few notches.

you educate me that a good mechanic is priceless,..... Also just what it does take to repair a modern car or truck,.... thanks for the education.

Nice change of content. Thank you for sharing.

Vitamin S. Sarcasm. You have helped my Corvair restoration with your skills and sarcasm. Keep going! Thx.

You make things look so easy.

I've never seen this model of Ram in New Zealand. We have a surprising number of these on the road, usually as company cars, considering how much they cost. They start at NZ $94,000 to $122,000. The median income here is $53,000 and a Toyota Land Cruiser is about $70,000. So you can imagine at that price these are prestige cars and so are usually only bought buy companies to put their logo on.

Good Video Scott with the right amount of sarcasm & wit, GMC, Ford etc must love you 🤣🤣🤣

Dude you saved my life with a few things.. this build makes no sense to me and I hate it more than anything I worked on.. I’m so happy you’re one of the only people one the internet that actually speaks speaks English clearly. You are the fucking man! I didn’t take the route you did for rebuild. I actually went ahead to reman the motor, broke the bell housing on install (no idea what happened) so I went ahead and did a full trans service as well. Took 2 months to get all the parts and work done… dumbest thing I’ve ever seen.

Excellent video as always Scott 👍🏻

Very interesting, much different than the usual body work etc. Thanks for the lessons..

Dang I thought we were building a mid engine van, thank you for your videos really enjoy watching.

Liked the motor in the middle best 👌easy to get to most everything

Lots of fun watching.

Since you are rebuilding this van, I'm sure it will be a better build than Dodge did. If....I mean when the trans goes out, Mr. Spotty will be there waiting to get out haha! We have 10 of these vans at work and they leak coolant, leak power steering fluid, don't shift well, a couple with sway bar/ball joint issues, and have noisy brakes. Good luck with the project. Keep up the great videos!

Entertaining video. I saw the Dejana(custom truck/van manufacturer) sticker on the door frame. Fun fact, I work about a mile from their factory. Now you know. Keep up the videos!

Top job as usual, love to be able to do this.

Good video thanks Scott .

yay more vids, since I'm not feeling all so good this helps me feel better.

South main auto will appreciate this one. Great video as always.

Great work Scott. Mr. Spotty :D

Mid-engine Promaster... Now that's pretty funny stuff right there! :-) I have to say I look forward to Friday's to see your videos, keep up the great work!

Awesome video, Scott!

Always waiting for a new video to pop up, even though I've been watching your channel for a few weeks now. I did a similar job to your dropping the engine on a 2014 Ford Taurus just to replace the internal water pump 😬

Another great video. Very well done. Enjoy that there is no silly background music.

Fun to watch as always!

Nice work as always! We have them here in Europe as Fiat Doblo, but unfortunatelly not with the 1298 hamster power engine...They usually are multijet diesels.

I bet you wish you had left the Headlamp out to get at the PAS ;) Love the way that you do work It's pretty much as my Merchant marine first engineer Grandfather taught me (Y) Thanks for sharing and Welcome to my world of working on European cars!!

5:53 Strongest, hardest working, power plant that will ever be in this engine compartment.

Hámster power. I trow up the Mate here in Argentina. Good luck with the fiat Doblo

Amazing video, can't wait for more videos.

I've wanted one of those to turn into a camper

The more I watch your videos, the more I feel confident in fixing up a a project car myself.

Once again, you demonstrate your versatility by tackling another non-GM vehicle, well done Scott ! Now about that Mustang !

How you know where all the fasteners go amazes me.

Nice work 👍🏻👍🏻

Good job as always!

great job. You made it look much easier that it was. That I am sure of.

from the Netherlands thanks for the video

This "Ram" has brought the "Boring" in Boring Build Friday to new heights!!! You are the only thing that makes it most watch worthy. I had to drive one of these for a couple years and can attest to the "would not take it if they gave it to me" qualities of this P.O.S. I had to drive it like a go cart because of the horrible transmission lagging and pausing. Floorboard till you are up to speed and then let off. You definitely have to drive it like you assume it is going to quit on you at any moment.

I'm always in waiting for your videos

Well Scott, that was beautiful! Love the sound of nuts and bolts being put to use. Here is a question for you please. Are Torgue specs not used anymore or are they no longer needed because of new materials for Bolts etc.?? I used to have to "click" for real. But your videos are great, love your explanations and most of all enjoy you sharing your work! Thanks, Rich

Friday night treat! Love the vids soooo much!

The next guy to take apart the trans and sees Mr. Spotty will say, "someones BEEN here before".

The sounds of a Milwaukee burp gun pulling bolts to factory torque accompanied by astute sarcasm makes for a Musak free video and twice as enjoyable. Welcome to Italian engineering where the key phrase is: "She fit where she touch!"

That engine swap was a nightmare. It looks like it wouldn't be possible to do it if you didn't have a lift. I can't imagine a worse design for working on. Might explain why they got rid of the van instead of continuing to fix it. I guess fixing the rear wheel arch is going to be easier than what swapping the engine was. Looking forward to seeing the repair next time. All the best from Queensland Australia.

As a chrysler tech you did great other than cleaning the grounding terminals and points chrysler has alot of ground issues on these particular engine/trans combos leaving one head starching during diag because crossover grounding

Thanks for the videos watch them alot

European connections and snap on cordless tools keep up the great work

You made that look easy. Nice job. Did you flush that oil/goo from the heater core or will you just run it a little and drain it?

Good job thank you for sharing

Amazing video ❤

Thanks for the vid. Always wondered why FIAT does not market the van for what it is, a Fiat Doblo.

Thanks for the video!

Great work

Another great video with awesome content. 👌

Good job

Pacing the floors waiting on tomorrow's video.

Could this be the afternoon crew new vehicle? Keep up the great work Scott!

Great video Scott! You make it all look so simple... and no cussing??? haha

The engine mounting bolts are one time use FYI... it is possible they will break

Great video!! I have had my van since 2017. 130,000 miles are there any service or prevention measures you would recommend thank you

Great as always 👌

Good stuff.

Thanks for sharing, I need your help, what is the correct position for the transmission hoses to the cooler, let's take the lower transmission hose as a reference, in which of the two connections on the cooler would it be? upper or down?,. Thanks..

I had one come in with all intake valves bent kinda weird because it was in time i pulled radiation out and pulled engine out the front front dunno if any easier I was able to leave the subframe in tho

You need to try CRL cleaner in your heater cores ?

Looking good 👍🏼

It will make somebody a nice work van when completed .. The front brakes sure do look like ones of a Vermont vehicle LOL
