    You’ve done so well Alex. Well done buddy I’m so proud of you. You are living proof that you can do anything if you just put your mind to it. I can’t wait for the next episode 🤗👍
    Take care ( Roger )

    Awesome progress, the DB9 is one of my favorite Astons of all time.

      Haha let’s say the dark trousers were a strategic decision on the day 😂

    Aston1936 in the States has recently had 4 extra injector O-rings that he was just giving away from what I remember. He ran into the same issue of them coming in an 8-pack.

      Haha I just don’t get why they’d sell them as 8, unless they use the same injectors in their V8s

    Hi Alex, I need torques for the inlet manifold gaskets on the DB9 and I don't do Instagram. Your help would be well appreciated. A tip my hat to you for the work you have done already. Even fully qualified mechanics would surely shun a job like this!

      Okay mate - if RUclips allows you to put your email address in reply to me, pop it on here and I’ll send across a copy of the workshop manual by email!

    Hello Alex, I just bought an Aston Martin DB9 submarine. Got it ar Cooart in the US and I am now waiting for it to arrive in Switzerland. Do you have a link to the workshop manual in order to separate the body from the power powertrain. I would like to do the 50 step program on it.

    Hi. I need tightening torques for the crankshaft and connecting rods for the rapide. I think it may be the same as in db9?

    It will probably be fine Alex! At least you’re not paying a specialist to remove the manifolds, etc to do the job like I did!! As for misfires and the risk to the catalysts, that’s apparently a real, but in reality very rare issue. Good luck. Enjoying watching the process. Good, nerdy viewing!

    You’re a lot braver than I am to take this job in. Nice one! Is it really worth using 1 old spark plug after all that work? Probably fine, but what a pain if you use one which was somehow damaged in the flood. All that work to get access again!

    • @itsalexbaldwin
      @itsalexbaldwin  9 месяцев назад +1

      Thanks Richard, a lot of people have said this to me in person too - almost a worrying amount 😂
      The spark plugs aren’t from the flooded engine, but the new one I bought; there were a couple in there that looked virtually brand new, and I used one of them!
