I liked the oil level dropping down after startup. If you haven't seen it yet there's a video on banks performance's channel with a clear rear end cover, really shows how that oil moves and foams.
@@ElTurbinado This is one of the rare circumstances where the dubbed version is far better than the original, the Russian's who watch the original channel have no idea what they're missing out on.
The translator is one of the reasons why I subscribed. I like to see what’s going on in other countries but unfortunately they don’t have a translator or the cc is not in English. BMI Russian rocks!!! And great work Garage 54!!
Is there a Garage 54 channel with original audio and (for example) English subtitles? The disturbing dubbing/narration is the only reason I have NOT subscribed to this channel. I pity those who live in countries where films and series are dubbed by default instead of subtitled.
When I was an apprentice mechanic the school had a Diesel engine with windows cut into the rocker and side covers, it was cool to watch running. Thank you Garage 54 👍
When I started in a repair shop, most of the people were drunk as Spongebob Squarepants and could find issues that the sober shop foreman couldn't... It was like pointing random engine parts and then changing it, or cars catching fire in the rain because there was an overpass at the wrong moment...
In some countries, they just don't check oil level... When the car stops turning left and right, it has run low on oil... When you see Smurfs coming out of engine, there is no oil left at all..
@@Monni95 Unless you're in a modern car which usually don't have analogue pressure gauges but instead have dummy lights that only come on when you're already out of oil.
This was an AMAZING educational opportunity to see how the oil flows through an engine and how much oil it takes to properly lubricate a running engine and why it is so important to maintain proper fluid levels. Thanks. This was amazing
This is starting to be some really high tech stuff for a simple garage which fixes cars. You've come a really long way and I hope you have a ton of way to cover over the years. :D
really love the honesty. dude has probably seen and fixed thousands of engines and ohter stuff, but still gets excited to actually SEE the stuff he was working on for decades and is honest/modest about it. "Now we understand" indeed
To see how much oil gets pumped out of the oil pan is great information. I never realized that running a engine just a little low of oil could have seriously bad effects. Love what you do, it's always teaching me something new no matter how silly it might seem.
This makes me want to change my oil! The way the oil turned milky means it has water in it either from washing it or from a coolant leak into the oil! Very cool to see how the oil is sprayed and flows back down!
I remember assembling a "Visible V8" model kit (clear block, heads, pan and valve covers, with metallic colored crank, rods, pistons, cam, and valve train) around 1960. Of course it didn't run, but with the starter motor turning it over and little red bulbs lighting in time at the end of the spark plugs, it was easy to see and fully understand the four stroke engine cycle and how the entire engine worked, especially for being only ten years old at the time. Went on to apprentice under a master mechanic after college and could always fully comprehend and appreciate what was actually happening in an engine, right or wrong. Not sure if my Mom knew she was starting me on my career centered around automobiles at that early age by giving me that wonderful Christmas gift. Thanks for this video!
You guys are awesome! I came for the -30 transparent oil-case and valve-cover, I stayed for the everything else! I'm so awestruck at your dedication to precision while you completely defy all the conventions - truly proving Picasso's famous quote “Learn the rules like a pro, so you can break them like an artist.” Can't wait for your next "Will it work?" Blessings, peace, and prosperity to you and yours
I'm a dentist and use that same suck down technique (on a much smaller scale of course) with models for teeth trays (bleach, straightening, nightguard, etc.) and it is very much a practiced skill. I like how you showed the failures and kept going until you got it right! Amazing to see the tech on a LARGE scale like that!
At Jasper engines, we used valve covers with flat plexi glass to verify the rebuilt engine was oiling properly. I have seen Banks Engineering use plexiglass rear axle covers. It is amazing to see the aeration that takes place which actually damages the gears over time. Great video and great translator!!! 🇺🇸
Ive watched you do crazy stuff for a long time but this one is REALLY interesting, getting to watch the inner workings of an actual running engine etc BIG thumbs up from me,
I love it! 10/10!! Always wanted to see that! I think they actually do that in development and testing of gearboxes. To see if everything gets enough oil
Hey can you do this with oil that’s been cold/frozen. I want to see what happened to a motor with cold/frozen oil thanks please like for them to see and do it thanks.
I like this one, a lot! Factual, informative and realistically down to Earth. Then to think, this is going on inside your engine all the time you're driving, whether tearing it down the motorway, or nonchalantly ambling through the countryside, this unseen act is being played out from start to finish of your journey.
This is easily one of the best videos you have ever done! You guys have outdone yourselves, which is hard because all you content is amazing! I want to see more stuff like this!
1: One of these days, BMI Russian needs to do a face reveal lmao. 2: I’d love to see a special video where it’s Life of Boris translating instead of BMI Russian.
it never occurred to me that the level in the oil pan would go down much with the engine running. I was surprised at how much it went down, but it makes sense when you think about it. This is why it's so important to maintain a proper oil level.
Thanks guys, loved that and it reminded me of a tool I had many moons ago to help tune SU,Webber,Stromberg carbs etc. It was a spark plug adapter that you replaced for the spark plug. It had a perspex or glass lens to see the actual color of the combustion flame, adjust carb = orande flame too rich and too light blue too lean, u get the right blue.. Spot on adjusted, also got an old vacuum device to match 2 su's or Stromberg's.. Back to the 80s, lovely simpler times...I miss them
I love how at 8:49 the windshield adhesive on the rocker cover has clearly failed, resulting in the cover bouncing around freely. Not a word is mentioned though. Don't change, Garage 54, you are the best automotive related youtube channel by far.
One time I got naked and wrapped myself in nothing but Saran Wrap and went to see my psychiatrist. I said "Doc do you think I'm crazy?" He responded by saying "I'm not sure if your crazy, but I can definitely see your nuts!"
One of the best videos I"ve ever seen. Worked on cars for 40 years nice to get an inside view.Wish that metal sheild down the center of the valves was not in the way. Keep up the good work
Crazy to see how the oil foamed up when there wasn't enough in there. And as soon as the olive level was sufficient, it was flowing normally. Great stuff
I re-built a lot of engines and transmissions over the years and understood how it all works but seeing it continuous without oil running down the block like when you adjust valves or have a leaky valve cover. But seeing it without having to rush to turn off without running engine out of oil is great.
