The pressure tester really comes in handy to check for leaks before putting the part back in place, especially if it is a difficult place to work in. I've seen times I would have loved to have a tester like that, would have saved a lot of grief. Thanks for sharing, I can't wit for part 2. Take Care and Stay Safe. Bob
John, If you keep an old baking tray in the workshop you can dump a tray of washers or screws into it and you will find it easier to pour them back into the tray or container they came out of.
Gotta love when a 5 minute job goes sideways, eh? I think most mechanics have a stash of leftover o-rings, washers, gaskets, etc. to pull themselves out of the stink when trying to get stuff done. Kind of fun how when one has a machine shop at home he or she gets, "Hey could you . . . " a lot, lol!
SO a guy has a flat tire on the side of the road one day. If the guy is British, he will take the tire apart and fix it with parts and tools he carries in the boot. If the guy is German, well, German tires don't dare fail. If the guy is Japanese, he writes the manufacture and demands a formal apology. And if the guy is American, he gets a tow to the nearest garage and buys 2 new tires on a credit card! You really have to admire the Brits ability to get every last mile out of something. Well done John.
Hi John, that pulley looks like a horrible bit of material, they certainly weren't going overweight when they designed that thing! Nice repair though considering. Cheers, Jon
Imperial Mike always does a great job. LOL I saw that piece come off and I saw the time estimate lengthen. Funny how 5 minute jobs become 2 hour jobs. I never throw away any kind of pulley. They eventually come in handy. Git'er done. See you in part 2.
Great share John ! I think that was NPT thread , But no matter you got it sorted very well .. Cheap cast pulley there , Brave soul to even try to fix that .. ENJOYED
HI, are you getting mistaken between BSP, BSPT and NPT, NPS threads, all look similar at a quick glance(the T threads are obviously different to P threads) but there very big difference when it matters. Black iron/Malleable fittings are BSPT.
Ya pipe (P) are tapered and tube (T) are not; maybe vice versa. Not that easy to mistake. As soon as you try to make up the fitting with the wrong kind you’ll know.
How does BSP seal? NPT is tapered and used with pipe goop or Teflon tape. I guess you kinda answered the question when I got further into the video. But couldn't the end user just have used the pipe after you put the BSP onto it or did they need the coupling as a way to grip the assembly?
The difference between npt and bsp is not much 55 deg thread for bsp and 60 deg for not both have the same taper and seal the same way, there are pitch variations on most sizes except 1/2 and 3/4 .
@@gth042 I remember those da yes! Loud and clear now! Took me a couple months though! Damn talented guy whether you understand him or not! And he’s added a few new words to my vocabulary to boot!

I knew it, generator driven by the steam engine to charge Debs new EV!!!!!!!!
Great vlog, thanks for sharing.
They’re witness marks all right, witness to a clumsy bastard😂😂 Thanks for another goodun’ John.
Blimey, it must be hot, Johns took his hat off. 🤣
It's getting washed because of the Queens birthday!
It's the one day of the year when it's not raining up north.

Always enjoyable and interesting. Thanks, John.

Packs of fibre washers and O rings are available from Lidl every now and then for less than 3 quid. Saves a lot of messing around!
Amazing how many times a 5 mins job turns into a marathon repair .
John you're a bonnie metalworker but you'd make a terrifying dentist!

Great video. Nice work John. Thank you for sharing.
Another job well done John, great video.
An intersting film again thanks
Bloody hell tha's got hair!!
That pulley looks so fragile. You have a good hand with tedious projects.
Well done.

Good one John . Cheers .
The Danube waltz goes so we'll with machine vidoes
Second for me it seems
Thanks for sharing John man, lots of love to you and yours

Great as usual john 👏
You can buy those pulleys off the shelf for a couple of quid, but that's not the point 😛
Aye, no doubt have the same amount of metal in them as a couple of quid :)
Did you convert your test pump from an off the shelf oil unit or????
Thanks John
I've heard them called "apprentice marks".
Good job. Do you like that lathe you have? I can't find anything like that in Thailand lol!
Am I the first evening john
Indeed you are

I’ve never understood a word of what you’re saying, but I can see exactly what you’re doing so I thank you for putting out such great videos!
Keep watching, it takes a few months. Before long, you too will have an updated swear-cabulary. It just happens. He's done this to thousands of us!

Looks like 1/4 NPT to me.
