I thought setting the ignition on my 71 Norton commando was bad, Seeing as the factory marks were so far out. but you have another 10 cylinders to worry about. Great content, enjoyed the details.

For those that don't know or notice that RR don't use gaskets and rely on the precision of the mating surfaces to seal. A smear of Hylomar is used to stop oil weeping.

Fantastic video great job it’s so interesting I really enjoying all the videos keep the great work going I’m so glad you are getting all army trucks tanks back on the road 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👌👌👌👌👌👌👌 thanks

Really interesting, like the detail even if I don’t see me spannering on a 27 litre RR engine anytime soon!

Excellent

Love to have seen the data plate on top of the rocker cover,to see where & when the engine was overhauled

A great watch.

Warum benutzen sie nicht den LKW zum Schieben von hinten als Unterstützung ?

Used to strip whole engine and rebuild (Base Over-hall) these. Good idea to check backlash on pinion gears. The black data plate, could you let me know what was stamped on it please?

that rolls royce tool looks like a tool to undo the nut on a vespa fuel tap.

Just made a donation- not much but I hope it helps

Thoroughly enjoyed watching a very complex procedure 😊

Have I got this wrong - or is the factory pale green applied to RR engines almost the same colour as the green applied to old-school Detroit Diesels?

I believe its one of the best engine looking and sounding

Fabulous. Very skilled. Thankyou.

Great to see another "Tinkering" challenge. If I ever get to your side of the planet I will visit for sure. cheers, Butch.

Was it from Campbell Barracks Hohne? There was an AVRE parked on a plinth on the drill square before the camp closed

My old wagon (09FD37) is in the background!!

That was a great video, looking forward to the next instalment. 😎

Thank you. Very cool. I'm really hoping that you ground hop this baby and share that with us. I can almost hear it already.

Brilliant as usual, many thanks!

Amazing stuff, to me. I've not been able to tinker with engines since the 80s (company cars etc) and these days I take one look and shrug. Sure there's an engine there under all the plastic covers. Must head over for a visit sometime.

Very interesting job well done , experience is everything , look forward to next episode

Cool that DDR and USSR did not invade us in the 6o`s...... Most of our tanks would be in service changing spark plugs......... With the optinal tool...... Great show guys ....! 😃!

Top stuff!

Clever stuff right there... Haven't done stuff like that since my apprenticeship days many, many moons ago...!!

The cylinder numbering on Aero Engines by convention runs from the propeller end - so number 1 nearest the prop and because the Meteor is derived from an Aero engine that's why it is like it is. Fun fact - Jaguar XK engines are also numbered the Aero engine way (number 1 on an XK is at the clutch end) because at the time, Jaguar had pretentions. :-)

Donation is USD

When we use to test those ignition leads we’d do continuity with ohms reading. Then use a Megger insulation tester to make sure the HT lead wasn’t leaking to earth. Good vlog, personally I enjoy the technical talk & explaining 👍

Another great video guys! I can't wait for part 2.

Great to hear that someone still knows the true value and uses for Hylomar. A lost art to many but those that know, know!

Great video thanks to all

Dear Mates, I am a huge fan of your RUclips channel and as I want too see more of your great work I would like to buy some of your merch if possible. Do you have some hoodies left in storage? All the best and thank you in advance

Great now I have to watch a video timing a engine that I’ll never work on. Lol

Thanks + many of the first will be last! Also, I think you will find that Samco, not sure about anyone else, can supply silicone hose in various colours including olive green, black and grey (or blue).

Have you thought of having a channel collaboration with Mr Hewes he tinkers with tanks also. ☘

I have four full pages of history on this avre

Ex gate guard barker barracks paderborn in 07

Donated :) Looking forward to see it running again. Hope i can visit next time i visit the uk part of the family

Doba search for Merlin Archive. Run thevtank reg...it give a fair cover of its career locations.

Have a word with tanksalot nick Mead......plenty of spares..

Did you remove the quillshaft?

JUST NOTICED THAT THE BLUE STICKER ON THE BACK OF THE SALIDAN THEY ARE REPAIRING, IS A ( Q.D.G ) QUEENS DRAGOONS GUARDS STICKER. SO AT ONE POINT THEY MUST OF SERVED ON THAT VEHICAL. WOULD BE INTERESTING TO KNOW WHEN IF THERE'S ANYONE WHO KNOWS:OR THE MUSEUM COULD LET US KNOW?

Donated, many memories working on AVREs some good some not so good. looking for to seeing her back running.

It’s an AVLB. Armoured Vehicle Launching Bridge….

Some fantastic 3-figure donations coming in =- including one absolute cracker (01EB57 = The Number Of The Beast). Chuffed to see it going so well already.

Donated. Looking forward to seeing it complete. Might be a good idea to ask Mr Hewes to do a shout out on his channel.

Can't wait to come back to see it

Welcome back. Did you have to hand over shekels or did the MOD do the decent thing?
