Octogenerian Forensic detective of defective 110 year old engines, brilliant, has given me incentive to strip a Triumph tiger 110 engine that suddenly lost compression a few weeks ago. here I go
Like the whole thing! Since tinkering with a 1027 Austin Seven in the late fifties I have played with spanners but you two young men fill me with admiration. May we all live for many more episodes.
Love the Mk.X on the hoist there in the background... My dad had 2 of them (one of which I was brought home from hospital in when I was born, hence my soft spot for them!) plus a Daimler Sovereign, all 4.2l. Along with 2 Rover P5B's and an Austin A35 with Shorrock supercharger and more gauges than a Harrier!!
Might want a bit of anti-corrosive in the coolant, that water was a bit red for my liking. Otherwise good work. We have all made mistakes, and if we are any good, we will have opprotunity and experince to make some more. Glad to see progress, and what a deal on that engine!
Fantastic old school engineering 👌 Wish I could give them my Mactool impact cordless !!! It saves so much time and we engineers always need more time ❤
Being English, when I saw the title “shed racing” I took it literally. However, though disappointed that there was no racing of motorised sheds, this turned out a real treat instead. Subscribed.
Always look forward to the latest from Shed Racing! Too bad it all had to come apart, but at least we get to see more of this beautiful engine and car! All the best from the colonies.
Watching you and John working together is an absolute joy to behold you each know where you need to be right on que and Tania's filming and editing is also a great pleasure to enjoy. Thanks to all of you for sharing your skills and knowledge with us out here in Tubeland
@@nazdagg2027 It looked like they found 3 pieces. Including the loop end. Suggests it might have come out of something. We shall have to wait for the next episode.
now thats a clever modification on the van beautifully done as we have come to expect from Ivan and John , looking forward to the next part of the hall and scott , keep up the great filming Tanya
Superb production, loved the black cat, choice of music and some lovely personal touches. There is nothing not to like about this either in the production or the aspects of engine building. Wonderful!
Sorry to see that you're having problems with the Hall-Scott engine Ivan. A mate of mine had a similar problem with his '63 E Type Jag engine, the split pins in the castellated big end bolts were a bit undersized and the reciprocating motion caused them to wear away and fall out into the sump. Most of them stayed in the sump at the bottom, but one piece got pulled through the pump suction screen and jammed the oil pump causing it to seize. Great video Ivan and John, I always look forward to your next installment.
Afraid that my ears stood up when you said the big ends 'were pinned' . . . after finding that 'corpus delecti' in the pump, I'd have been wading around the sump pan in my Hall & Scott wellies, while gazing upward with a big torch . . . & counting. : )
You guys are a rare breed & so meticulous & accurate in your method I just love watching & listening to your voice,you explain things perfectly ❤️ good luck with the re-rebuild 👍
Ivan, years ago I rebuilt an ex-Nascar Chevrolet V8 and it had 5 stages of scavenging in the dry sump system. The pickup for the lifter valley had a small screen epoxied over it. The system was designed to isolate the valve train lube system from the rest of the engine, so a dropped valve wouldn't frag the rest of the engine. You sure were lucky with the oil pump! Perhaps the cat has something to do with it!
FFS don't let the cat near that anti freeze. Poisons the poor blighters. Love the Hall and Scott. Superb. P.S. get a moroso oil filter cutter. Like a tin opener, no hacksaw swarf to confuse things.
Thank you Ivan another most interesting and entertaining video, a pleasure to watch you and John working together in harmony even when you offer him a red hot part to hold! Good luck with the Hall and Scott engine rebuild, pleased that you found the problem.
I like how modern to Ivan is 1960s! I've rebuilt a couple of pre war engines now and the most nerve wracking thing is seeing if you have oil pressure or not when it's actually running. You can tell if the valves open and close and the pistons won't hit the head by hand and not having spark won't matter, it just won't start, but no oil is my biggest fear. In my Riley engine I had the opposite issue, too much pressure. I have a modern filter on it (and I need to steal your disguising it trick) and it blew out the filter o ring and oil went everywhere. No damage done luckily.
Another great video, I'm looking forward to seeing the next part of this one and finding out what the problem was. Thank you for keeping these old cars running for us all to enjoy 👍🏻
Cheers from Portugal ! Never a dull momento watching your videos ! This one was even more special ! What about the Salmon you bought in Portugal ! Keep that spirits high ! Cheer again to you and John !
Love the show love you guys you get it done. We used to use an oil filter cutter to open filter, s it does not pollute the filter with metal from a saw it works like a tin opener. You can buy them for low money on the web. Nice tool I think you would like one.
Glad to see the Hall + Scott was repairable, as always with these old engine's knowledge is the key Thanks for sharing and look forward to the rebuild video. Great work for Tanya on video and editing just getting better and better Keep up the great work.
That vans like Doctor Whos Tardis, never would have thought that car would fit in , sneaky notches behind the removed rear light a nice touch to miss the spinners !!
Sorry to see that you have problems with the engine but it does make for a very interesting video! So thanks a lot for letting us follow along and watch as you two take it to bits.. And thanks Tanya (I hope I spelled her name right) for the great editing and camerawork. Best regards from above the Arctic Circle in Sweden
Again, excellent episode. You take me back to my engine fumbling days with my; in those days, Lotus 7. I’m now also in my 80 but no longer yearn for the sounds and smell of a car workshop. I did work for Speedwell Conversions in Finchley for a time, Graham Hill was a director in those days. Just for a second there, while you were climbing into the car, you reminded me, facially, of my absolute Hero, Sir Stirling Moss. Am spreading the word as often as possible and looking forward to your next episode. Thanks.
Thanks Ivan John and Tanya for your excellent casting and content complete with episode cliffhanger. Hi Amelia and 27 is a perfect age to be married. Stay safe and you have kicked off a rainy day in Australia with this episode. Absolute corker.
I'm very curious about John's origin story. It looks as though the two of you have worked together for ages. That perfect wordless style of collaboration is such a joy to watch.
Wish that I could click the like button 100 times. Every new episode is eagerly awaited and does not diapoint whent it arives, Thankyou for a great series and special mention to Tania/Tanya, for the excellent camera work and editing.
So, so interesting, can't wait for the next H&S instalment......... Great video, I think you've got the music mixed with workshop sound levels just right.
Glad you didn’t hurt the engine. Or that’s what I gleaned from your final comments. Look forward to seeing the next episode and what actually happened rot the old girl.
Thankfully I’ve never had cause to open an oil filter, but doesn’t that get a bit messy? I can see that it wouldn’t be adding any contaminants. Cheers.
"I drove it very carefully" 😂🤣😂.. Yeah... With NO OIL PRESSURE... I tried that one night coming down the A9.... Got to Bankfoot before she died !... Broke my heart... Hexagonal oil pump drive the size of a pencil ROUNDED !!!! 😭...
Kid that cleans our shop lost the oil drive on his mustang. We told him to cut the oil filter and look for metal particles. He came back all upset that there was metal in the oil filter. He used a hack saw to cut the filter. 😅
hi Ivan Johns gold to your setup good show keep um coming thank you
Gracias por dar a conocer tanta historia, abrazote desde la Patagonia Argentina.
Never a dull moment with Ivan and John, its like CS I. with engines.

No, a lot lot lot....better than CS...
This is real....CS is fiction
😅😅😅😅👍
@@arielsaeth Good luck with the Triumph. (Belatedly).. What was it? Broken ring? Valve seat? Valve?
Like the whole thing!

You always need a lucky black cat to show where the real priorities of life lie. Food, fun and mechanics. A superb video all round!
Superb detective work & spannering, love how the hall & Scott is almost made to measure to fit the van
Fantastic old school engineering 👌
Wish I could give them my Mactool impact cordless !!!
It saves so much time and we engineers always need more time ❤
Thank you great work - love the Van tail light mods and the oil filter cover - “Put it somewhere safe” love it - Regards
Being English, when I saw the title “shed racing” I took it literally. However, though disappointed that there was no racing of motorised sheds, this turned out a real treat instead. Subscribed.
Waiting to see where this split pin came from! And so nice of Tanya to say Hello while John was filling the radiator.
Always look forward to the latest from Shed Racing! Too bad it all had to come apart, but at least we get to see more of this beautiful engine and car! All the best from the colonies.
Amazing. Old school mechanics, no oil pressure just drive it easy to the next mates house. So much gold in here.
This is better than anything on telly. Two young lads messing about with spanners.
Now that is something SPECIAL!
Watching you and John working together is an absolute joy to behold you each know where you need to be right on que and Tania's filming and editing is also a great pleasure to enjoy. Thanks to all of you for sharing your skills and knowledge with us out here in Tubeland
I haven’t got a clue about engines but somehow it’s extremely interesting watching this amazing character, it humbles me🙏
Excellent, thanks Ivan and co. Look forward to the next Hall and Scott installment
yes, got me curious now. what you call a split pin, we call a cotter pin. did you find the whole pin or just the legs?
@@nazdagg2027
It looked like they found 3 pieces.
Including the loop end.
Suggests it might have come out of something.
We shall have to wait for the next episode.
What a fantastic video. Can't wait to see where the spit pin came from. Much respect from Texas.
now thats a clever modification on the van beautifully done as we have come to expect from Ivan and John , looking forward to the next part of the hall and scott , keep up the great filming Tanya

Just gets better and better. The production, sound, music and content is first class, thank you.

Brilliant Ivan, old cars, never giving up, good photography, and a mairriage coming up, perfect!!!!
You guys are a rare breed & so meticulous & accurate in your method I just love watching & listening to your voice,you explain things perfectly ❤️ good luck with the re-rebuild 👍
Those little words 'I put it away safely' (never to be found again) me too !!!
It's a bit like the hear -after .. what am I hear-after

Another great video. I like seeing all the different bits of engineering hidden inside. The music during the tear down seemed very fitting.
Cheers from Portugal ! Never a dull momento watching your videos ! This one was even more special ! What about the Salmon you bought in Portugal ! Keep that spirits high ! Cheer again to you and John !
A proper 'boys own' adventure.Big thumbs up.
Thanks.💛💙
Oh Ivan you bloody tease! Not telling us what the problem is and we have to wait for the next instalment!

What a legend! Unmissable.
A real labour of love there Ivan for the both of you. Well done.
Been a longtime waiting for another Shed and this was one of your best. Well planned, filmed and put together. Congrats to Tanya, keep them coming.

Fantastic video. Great bit of detective work on the engine and marvelous filming by Tanya.
Best wishes, Dean at Retromeccanica, Oxfordshire.
Thanks Ivan and john👍👨🏻🏭
I wasn’t too interested to start with but now I’m utterly intrigued !😊
Please guys, don't weld inside that wonderful shed! It would be an absolute tragedy to lose it.
Once more down into the rabbit hole of Ivan's life, and what a glorious place it is, too!
Greetings from Australia. Those quick release tail light's are genius to get the wheel hubs through, well done mate.
You two gents are amazing at what you do with these engines. I am glad you found the problem. I am looking forward to the next video.
Everyone who has a brush with Ivan has good luck in life. To the Barnsley Rocker lass, congratulations😸😸😸
Thanks Ivan John and Tanya for your excellent casting and content complete with episode cliffhanger. Hi Amelia and 27 is a perfect age to be married. Stay safe and you have kicked off a rainy day in Australia with this episode. Absolute corker.
I love these aero engined specials but what a labour of love.
Classic Intro.
You can imagine the BBC [et al] taking 3 days and 50+ takes sliced together
Long Live Ivan (+) The Feral Cat
The heat treatment of welded hardened steel is an art in itself.
I'm very curious about John's origin story. It looks as though the two of you have worked together for ages. That perfect wordless style of collaboration is such a joy to watch.
Tip top always. Thank you. Jim

You guys are SO entertaining. Thank you so much for putting out these videos. I'm hooked!
I absolutely like the way, you are doing it oldschool.
The act of adopting a stray cat will karmedicly fix your oil pressure problems.
I'm on tenterhooks now. Superb content and production. Loved the music too.
So, so interesting, can't wait for the next H&S instalment......... Great video, I think you've got the music mixed with workshop sound levels just right.
Thanks Guys...you inspire me to just keep on keeping on...as you "blokes" do
I think I’ve just learned two or three tricks watching you guys work .. Extra points for the shop cat! Another great video Ivan…
Wounderful ❤️👍
This is a fabulous channel👏
Glad you didn’t hurt the engine. Or that’s what I gleaned from your final comments. Look forward to seeing the next episode and what actually happened rot the old girl.
Enjoyed every minute my favourite you tube channel right up my street!😃
old mate needs safety glasses 18.15 when cutting the oil filter. :-) just a friendly tip. love this content BTW :-)
The jazz works better than the heavy metal. Great stuff!
An inspiration as usual. Very much enjoyed.
If as you said the bigends bolts are locked in with split pins surly you should have taken the sump off and checked them?
Great content and video. Looking forward to the next one.
Love your videos top class, do a competition and the winer spends a day at your work shop
Always entertaining and informative, I do enjoy your vids...
Enjoy your films very much Ivan
Nice video! Thanks for sharing. 😉👍
This is good enough to be on TV!
Fantastic , loved every minute.
11/10. Again! Thank you to all.
Finding a split pin in the sump..tear down yes immediate
I use my lathe to open oil filters, proper size bolt in the chuck, screw filter on, open :)
Thankfully I’ve never had cause to open an oil filter, but doesn’t that get a bit messy? I can see that it wouldn’t be adding any contaminants. Cheers.
Very soothing watching you guys tinker.
Great to see you 2 again - was getting worried !
Another great episode! Just the kind of thing I enjoy. Cheers from the US
This is so good, cheers Shed Racing Team!
Videos just keep getting better and better , good content 👍👍👍👍
Now you’ve got a cat this channel will explode!
Not a cat that's a puma , great filming , very interesting ! Ta
15:11 I'm going to have to get one of the blue-tipped wrenches someday.
Very well edited video with nice music. Keep up the good work. Also very interesting video
"I drove it very carefully" 😂🤣😂.. Yeah... With NO OIL PRESSURE...
I tried that one night coming down the A9.... Got to Bankfoot before she died !... Broke my heart... Hexagonal oil pump drive the size of a pencil ROUNDED !!!! 😭...
