I learn something from you every time a watch the show! Ex: to test the coil, light the car on fire!!😂
Right on!
My grandpa was a LeSabre driver, traded every two years as far as I can remember. He wasn't fancy enough for a Cadillac, like my other grandpa.
😢😢jj😮😮😮😮😮j😊
ha ha
😅🤣😂
Thank God for Mortske he keeps me sane, and has the only youtube Car Show worth watching, !!!
Puddin an Mortske
so is sleeper dude and his wife and 3 children and derrek at vice grip garage..
Yes puddins fab shop and mortske repair
Sleeper dude is really good as well.
You sure you're sane?
Came for the cars...stayed for the fire-fighting.
Ha
Now I’m intrigued. 30:37 Nothings on fire yet. Watching for smoke.
1:17:25 looks like my barbecue.
1:18:37 one thing I have been meaning to do if fill a 2 liter bottle up with Baking soda. Poor man’s fire extinguisher. Pop the cap and shake it over the flames.
Man, Williams and Ree. Holy throwback man. I have a signed t-shirt from them from the brown county fair circa like 1999 when I was wee pup.
Collector!
Honestly Sir Mortske I was kind of baffled that you never pulled the Carb. & tightened the lose base down. HELL, Even PUDDIN WOULD HAVE DONE THAT, LMAO.
Actually I can see Duff in the background shaking his head, " TIGHTEN THE BASE DOWN ". All the while keeping 1 eye on the gas pump that the critter was hiding behind, GOOD DAG HE IS.
@1:23:00, first start after the fire, I'm watching some loose sparking just below the carb near the valve cover on the left side.
I thought I was the only one who watched the videos that closely. I saw that as well. Could be the source of the miss.
Buick's are awesome and you should feel HUMBLE to work on it's greatness.. Love love love the Lesabre! Nice!
Duff always looks so happy to go on a R I D E! Great video
DAG'S LOVE RIDES, 100%. HELL YOU CAN'T EVEN SAY THE WORD, THEY GO KRAZY, LOL.
The uni-points is for setting the dwell. GM set them to get the vehicle running. Then you attach a dwell meter to the coil. Set dwell, then timing, then carburetor. Dwell effects timing, but timing does not effect dwell. Start with the basics to give the engine the best chance of running. Setting points with a feeler gauge, does not always guarantee the proper dwell angle of the points. You can set dwell with the ignition on, and using your loser switch to crank and adjust the dwell. It saves batteries, and starters. Crank, crank, crank.
Excellent information!! I'll use it tunning my late father's 1958 Plymouth Suburban. If you're interested in following along, playlist on my channel.
Good info. I started working on cars in the mid 80s when fuel injection and computer control was starting to appear on cars but as a driveability technician at my gm dealership I did my share of work on carburetor and points ignition cars.
This episode of Mortske Repair has been brought to you by Mortske Low Life, the bongwater of bottled beer. But seriously, today's episode has it all: crappy starter, dead jumper pack, burnt coil, exhaust cut-off, and real flames on top. How could you NOT enjoy it?!?
And attacking spiders to scare the shit out of someone with arachnidphobia(probably wrong spelling)
You know, Mortske Repair to me is like your favorite tv show you raced home to watch on Monday nights after school or work. Thank you for another great show!! Hey, just a thought but I think you interviewing your dad on his interest in cars and what his first thoughts were after the LS swap on his Buick were would be awesome.....his real thoughts. Anyway, Thank you Mortske and Thank you Duff!!
Thanks for the kind words!
I only watch for the duff monster hes a awesome puppy
that was a good fire, even better than puddins...
we had very few V8s in UK, the most common one was an ex buick 3.5l with alloy block, heads, + manifold. we called it the rover V8...
Buick 300 is basically an iron block version of a BOP aluminum 215. You can build a stroker with an aluminum block using the 300 crank. Really makes an mgb haul the mail!
Good to know!
Always wanted to build a 300 Buick V8 or put a Buick ultra high compression 215 aluminum V8 in a grey 86 Buick regal V8 sport coupe I had so I could harvest the oldsmobile 307 roller cam V8 for a cutlass I had at the time of well most of that didn't happen except the oldsmobile 307 was the thermostat I had that came apart and pretty much trashed the oldsmobile 307 the thermostat stuck open the water pump stopped turning,blew the top and bottom radiator hoses spewed hot antifreeze all over the front of the regal and removed paint off the fenders and core support, and replaced the water pump, thermostat, radiator hoses and it started puffing white smoke and starting to rattle at idle... Turns out it cracked both heads in front and in the middle of the head holes 1,2,5,4 block and cam and crank was fine rattle was the middle bearings on the 5 and 4 cylinder pistons starting to spin on the crank so I pulled it and put it on a engine stand then the engine stand got borrowed from there the oldsmobile 307 got sat behind a recliner chair in the garage and my younger brother gave it to a buddy for parts I was not happy, anyways I ended up putting a 79 oldsmobile 350 quadrajet intake on a set of 75 olds c heads on a diesel oldsmobile 350 in the regal and it would run lol!!
This is a top of the line full size luxury car, so incredible how big these cars were, like a gigantic land barge.
Haven’t watched yet but I’m planning on doing a shot everytime you say easy peasy lemon squeezy. I hope I’m conscious by the end. 1:45 I better get the big bottle
Mortske Monday what can go wrong will go wrong. Banged your head on the hood then caught the engine on fire. LOL 😆. Great video in all.
good times!
I read that 1963 was the last year for the aluminum heads. Buick probably had some left to use up. That was the lightest production V-8 at that time.
sweet!
You never disappoint brother ... the Look on Duff Dogs face is priceless
He sure loves his life 👍🏻
Between the Williams and Ree reference and you and Pookie’s 10 minute Midwest Goodbye, you’ve reached peak Dakotas. Makes me homesick.
She may be cracked, wracked, and rusted; but she’s all there-and she’s a Buick! A Rock Auto fuel tank, Macco paint job, and Midas exhaust puts her right into the looks ok from ten feet away class. Definitely Duff approved! The spider never bothers me-but when you hit your head on the hood I immediately felt it (because I’ve done it-ouch, that one hurt!). Thanks for the work you do for us, and always, always; Love The Duff!
our pleasure!
This car might be the most interesting car you have picked up for the channel. Probably the best deal price wise too. Its not a popular car but its unique and it delivers everything that a car of that period should. Wouldn't feel bad about hot roding it either.
Here I am on holiday, 5 day in the Belgium Ardennes ( battle of the Bulge ) sitting with my feet in the creek so extremely bored trying to convince myself to apply water and soap to the van, but saved by the bell by Mortske and Duff with Buick content, your timing was as ever excellent! Thanks you made my day!
excellent choice!
The Spa race track is nearby isn't it ?
@@barrycuda3769 yes it is!
That’s cool that you help out the old farts at the local museum. You’re a good guy.
I try
The topper is so great !!!! It looks right out of a 1982 science fiction movie!!!!!!!
That topper actually looks pretty cool on the cowboy Cadillac 👌
not bad!
My first car was a 1964 Le Sabre. A very similar car that you have. I enjoyed watching as it brought back memories. I learned to perform tune ups and brake service on that machine. As I.recall the transmission kick-gown was electric with a switch incorporated into the accelerator pedal that actuated when the car was floored. Thanks for the video.
Good times!
My cousin talked me into subscribing to this channel, said lt was relatable, I'm glad she did because it is relatable to the things in my life and it's very entertaining as well!
Welcome aboard
My Dad had one of those when I was a kid, baby blue with a dark blue interior. I remember as a little kid sleeping in the back package tray when we traveled to the Black Hills is South Dakota. Thanks for the memories.
Good stuff
Always a pleasure! Great content! Well done!
HOLY FIRE Mortske. You know Puddin is going to get on ya about that one and great video man. I like low profile hats too.
Woo Hoo Another Mortske Fire! Glad you didn’t lose the shop!
Me too!
I had a 1966 GS, 401 with the Riv dual quad set up. 2 speed trans with 4.11 posi . t had the Buick 5 spoke rally wheels. Loved that car!
I'm not really a GM guy but I have to admit that the Buicks from 1960 to 1970 were the best looking cars!! That's my opinion. Another great video by the way!
glad you enjoyed it!
I agree. Very, very elegant, sharp designs. I think these cars might have influenced european car makers in their later designs.
Definitely the fire helped to clear the intake from all the mouse crap that was on it. I can't imagine how you can break or get the base of the carburetor so lose? I think the Minnesota rust got to the car other wise it is decent. Very much enjoyed the entire content of the video.
It's a common problem on those gm carbs with the separate base plate. The gasket is a thick cardboard type material to act as a heat sink. As the car sits thru the years, the gasket dries out and shrinks, causing the bolts to loosen.
Dig the topper, love that it keeps things dry and somewhat secure. Maybe do a shirt to help out the museum, just a thought.
That out cold reference with Pig pen was great. Solid movie 🍻
Dang right
Loads of great parts there for an old school hot rod. And that engine is a great fit for old English roadster builds. Enjoyed hearing the update on the museum as well. Very cool episode! Thanks for letting us hang out.. oh, and if the Amish can move a building, so can you.. 😂
She was definitely a drive-in cruiser, those seats have seen unspeakable things 😂.
No comment
I've got a 74 Catalina ...
There's a hide a bed in the back and five sets of golf clubs in the trunk.
Kind of like the Station Wagon I had with Foot prints on the inside of the Rear Roof :)
@@RockyRaccoonsdead bahaha!
Stop it !! You're making me miss my 1964 Chevy Nova I had back in the 70's during high-school. It was a two door, but the back seat was comfortable....... Oh those were the days!!
Moving a building… definitely a great 2nd channel idea.🎉
stay tuned!
Damn Mortske, trying to burn down the shop? What was that sweet old truck beside the Buick?
Another model I'm not familiar with, I bet they were very smart cars in their day. This is an awesome channel, I could watch it all day. Thanks for another great post Mort.
Thanks for the kind words!
The one year only 1964 Buick 300 has an aluminum intake AND factory aluminum heads. In '65 they went to cast iron intake and heads.
good to know!
Prayers to the family of the loss officer in Fargo 🙏
Dang you and Dylan McCool both putting out 64 lesabre videos. Awesome
It's been a while since you've had a good fire!! I was expecting a scream or something but you kept your cool. Thanks for the video, always entertaining!
No use in getting excited!
@@MortskeRepair That's true!
Once you get the carb sorted out it will probably be a good runner. Don't see any blowby. I am an oldy so I lived and breathed breaker points. It was a great time when HEI ignition came out. So many issues went away.
After today and past events you really need a handy dandy Mortske Fire Extinguisher.
Another Mortske classic…..enfuego!!! 🔥🔥🔥
Always good content... I look forward to watching your shows..
It's almost guaranteed there will be starter issues or a fire. This video has both!
@@PapiDoesIt double whammy!
Trans pan and modulator location sure looks like a THM 400. They were available in 1964 full size Buicks.
That makes sense because someone's comments about their kickdown in one of those cars is wired to switch on the accelerator pedal to a wire on the firewall running down to the transmission... That is how kickdown switch is wired for a th 400 turbo I've fixed several of them on gm square body trucks usually the c20 and the 4x4 one's..
I came to make the same comment, it’s a TH400 for sure.
Loved the Williams and Ree reference took me backj to my younger days. I remember watching them at the Ramkota in Pierre and several ties at the SD state fair.
Greetings from the UK and pleased to see another great video Mortske… and no snow
Always great to see what new adventures you’re up to 😊 just be careful not to get hurt 👍
Now that I’ve watched it all the way thru I hope I didn’t jinx you with the warning 😐
Another great show Mortske! Thanks so much Sir!
Wow glad you didn't get burned .
Great job on getting that Buick running.
Can't wait till you make another exciting video.
You and me both!
🕷 yeah good one Mortske, got me 😂
Only at Mortske repair does a person put a gas fire out with water 😂
Water just goes under the fire and makes it spread. 😅
Hey Mortske and Duff 👋, great video today 👍. It's alive and driving, so it's a win. Have a great week ahead 👍
Mortake Repair Friend great job on getting the Classic Buick up and running again, she just needs some TLC 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸😃😃💪💪💪👍👍👍👍👍
Right on
Another stellar episode, your content takes me back to garage days of yesteryear! Thanks Mortske !
My pleasure!
When it caught fire I was looking for Ralphy 'I'm in danger' 😂
missed opportunity!
And always good seeing the dog Duff too 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸😃😃💪💪👍👍👍👍👍
If I tried driving something like that on the roads in Australia I'd get picked up, beat up and locked up for sure. Great video Morske.
Fire was a nice add on.👍
That fire really worried me! It lasted for so long! And you were right there in it! Suppose it exploded!
That fire!!!! great episode Mortske. Would love to hear more about your time in Australia.... I remember you saying it in a video ages ago
The canopy looks great! If you take it off you'll be kicking your own ass when the time comes that you need it. Seriously the canopy looks like it was made for it. Tom in Idaho
never heard a topper called a canopy!
Had me a 1964 Wildcat 4 door hard top once upon a time... Those nailheads are pretty tough. Would love to have that ride again... except for the undercarriage rot. Great video. Love then Buicks
Our family car was a brand new 1974 Buick Century Regal 4 door in beautiful Maroon color. Same car that KOJACK drove on his TV show.
Always happy to see you on Monday. Audio was much better on your drive...I usually have a hard time making out what you are saying but today was good. 😊
appreciate feedback!
Whatever you are using for videos is exceptionally clear very good quality. Love your vids buddy keep up the good work.
Great video. I'm glad you posted keep them coming thanks
What a Mortske Monday , Reminded me of when I took my dads 64 out and ran it against the local 53 Fords then put it back in the garage to cool down . Its a teenage dream , having the horse power to make a few bucks to fill the tank and leave no evidence !!! Hope you sell yours off to someone who will spend a some money and bring it back around . Till next time , hang loose keep cool , keep your wit sharp . stuart in Ontario .
Great video on will it run on the 66 Buick. Just needed some fire in the hole. Lol 😂 Thank you Mortske successful. Going to need some love. Ready for it’s new home. And I love caps.
Great start to the week 😁 as always another great video.. thanks
glad you enjoyed it!
my father was big into buicks .he had a 1965 buick skylark 340 nailhead 4 speed posi rear he ordered it new from the factory sold it when i was a kid in the late 70s..and thank you for the hat
Sweet
Been awhile since you've had a great fire. Well done!
you still did get it running! That says a lot about you for not giving up!
Dang Morty sparked up a fire😅! Glad you didn't burn down the shop. Good video; I love me some ole Buicks👍.
That's an early entry into the brougham era -- a big luxury car ride for a cheap price.
I had a '75 LeSabre for about two weeks - gigantic car. It was all good but just not me. My mother had a '95 Century -- that car is probably one of the most solidly-built high quality car GM ever made. Was a grannies car but man that thing was bullet-proof.
Brings back old memories. I took 7th place in a demo derby with a very straight 64 Buick identical to yours. Air even worked.
good stuff!
That fire/thermal incident is probably worth working into the channel intro. Def a youtube short. Maybe even a Mortske thermal incident "best of" video
So happy to see your firemaking skills have not diminished. You'd make a fine Eagle Scout.
I always enjoy it when you hang around with Pookie.
Love this series…. I have a 65 CORSA and did a lot of the stuff you’re doing as a rookie too!! Good Luck… used parts are a crap shoot!!
I love old Buicks! I really love how Mortske pronounces "LeSabre" the same way I do.
Another great rescue, especially liked the fire part…I had new 70 Buick GS 455 convertible. 13.85 qtr mile times on oem tires. Won a number of street races, nobody knew what it was.
I hope you kept it!
"YES" the legendary 455 that was in Buick, Oldsmobile and Pontiac, great engine.
Course they're all under General Motors.
Great Show !! Keep Them Comin !! See "Sound of Freedom" !!! ASAP !!!
Duff told me those new roach clips are the cats ME-OW !
Grateful for all your efforts. I honestly get a smile when I get an alert about either channel !
glad to hear it!
Good gravy you got me again with the spider deal. Nice job. Doing fantastic fixing things. Keep up the great work
every time!
I had a 64 Buick La Sabre1974, when I was at Technician school learning to be a jet engine Technician for the USAF.
I can't believe how calm you where with that engine fire. After the water started spreading the fire, I was starting low key panic looking behind you for your fire extinguisher. Lol great video.
I'm an unpaid actor, I do my best!
dad had a 80s buick lasabre for cab for many years was a good car all the Buicks were great. good time. cheers morts.
That topper is GOOD, gotta love period correct useful accessories! Old toppers make great storage sheds out of pickup beds!
Totally!
Great content 👍 guys. Had a Buick or two in our family, great car's for the most part. Thanks for sharing 😊.
Our pleasure!
Best kind of fishing to me... All the city water holes around here so dry. Your lucky to have access.
It sure is
Great video! Informative as well entertaining.
Cool video as usual! When I was a kid my parents had a '64 Buick Wildcat 4 door hardtop, very similar to this one. Was a great car! And the used car warranty I use: Once you drive it off the lot, if it falls in half, both halves are yours.
Right on
Cars hard come by these days
Its been a while since you set something on fire, thanks I needed that!
No problem!
Great video a Buick I have never seen buddy had a Buick special ok sedan. Take care Duff and Sir !
