Lo of old [ __ ] me W suit you too rough would know today me and Mr best go down to help a friend of mine with a Chie tank won’t start Le you can’t run away me I reckon sh do you can’t steer it you can’t start it can’t

Do yeah so we’ll start by bleeding the steering caliper yep pump up hold It release pump it up a load of times pump it yeah Che main engine off plenty of oil plenty of oil the colant I should try and check the colant stup guys Perfect Right green an freeze this is the main one you need to be worried about this is your uh do

Bit off for a Day Too see if without this it’ll uh run away or red flat out should we say it’s got plenty in it that’s all right then really you want to check all of that before your first started ever in the gear box

Do you think we ought to put some oil in the filter no connected up the power that sounded helpful oh Is that running Right well we were just about to drive it out but it’s just packed up recking the fuel filters are block Adam’s well pleased about that cuz it was so easy to start last time we’re better see if we got any filters you’re enjoying that making that look easy oh my

God so we thought we had got block filters but no they’re actually just absolutely full of water which ain’t the greatest something terrible is happening Adam’s trying battling to keep it outside the environment oh dear give it the old crank oh no great cars and a great deal

More great cars and a great deal more l l Call so we’ve got two engines neither of which start [Laughter] Not spinning still not Spinning ad it’s spinning he spinning it got no hydraulic oil in it if you do a hydraulic start it needs hydraulic oil good old Max check nothing we’re going to go for take two hydraulic Start you should be able to hydraulic start them from inside but of course that system also needs bleeding so Adam’s now going to do it with a spanner on top of the pump that’s now cranking the main engine over Hydraulically and obviously all that water in the injection pump hasn’t done any favor he not really liked it hopefully we can burn that out and she’ll get over it in a minute and go she didn’t you can crank for as long as you like on a hydraulic starter but on

Electric starter it soon burns the brushes out on the motor Still don’t want to play ball so I don’t going to try and slacking an injector bike on the main injection Pump [Laughter] Really oh hell [ __ ] up [Applause] Oh [Applause] oh okay I’ll okay go right well we got it going Adam was just starting to lose his compassion slightly also dropped the 19 mil spanner under Bo engin so we going to got another 19 mil spanner which is his favorite snpp on one just to T up the last two injection

Partes on the engine that was a real pain to believe very Good Is it charging Yeah probably just leave it uncharged it don’t charge I’ll take over no you just hold it there it’s actually running quite nice hardly any smoke not smoking new yeah but it is running on T Water and Air can have all the money in the world but you can’t have clean

Diesel I was about to smash everything you wer very happy were you is it going to stay running I think it will I think it will I think she’ll be some now not the switches if you’re not the switches you don’t start we’re going home we’ve done what we said we’re going

To do which was uh fix the steering how was the steering not a bit of smoke poor old Chie don’t put water in your fueld tank that’s the moral of the story On a scale of 1 to 11 how flat are the battery still uh 10.9 10.9 what Volts black that didn’t take much child at all I think you want some new back to risk you reckon just a bit recking it once just leaving and never looking at ever Again another great success sh day in parad [ __ ] that is is that also just say all know I now a website that wasn’t made by me cuz I’m not clever enough and there will be some bits and pieces and tank related parts that you can buy and put in your house

And garden and some swag as well that you can wear cheers
