@@TheBenakroyd yeah, cyl 5 and 6 have bad valve guides I believe and likely ring wear, smokes like crazy when engine braking downhill at high altitude. Had 200k miles before I got it.
there is this thing called "traction".... meaning the more your wheels spin, the less traction you have. in short, if you start sliding around, putting your foot through the floor and revving the hell out of the car, only makes it spin more, reducing your chances of climbing the hill.. just my 5c
Don’t think you realise how steep it is, and I don’t think going slower would of helped I think the only way I would of make it would be to get into the next gear, but I’d had to many failed attempts and this was my last so I decided to keep my foot to the floor
@@TheBenakroyd understood, I myself have been offroading a ton of times, but mostly sand not mud. And the rule on sand is, the more you spin, the deeper you dig in, the higher your chances of failure. but if you find a method that works for you, thats great
@@stephenfdw if you look at the end I have the brakes on and it’s sliding back down the hill, should give you some indication of how steep, slippery it is, and like someone else said my tyres are pretty crap
@@stephenfdw That's very true on sand and snow, but whilst climbing muddy hills I've also found that flooring it and trying to find any grip yields the best results. Don't know the science behind it, I have a hunch it could have something to do with how much momentum you carry up.
In mud you need to spin the tires. It flicks all the mud out of the tred and gives you grip. If you drive gently the tred just gets filled with mud and you have 0 grip
All that horse power, and it's getting up that slope about as fast as a wet flannel up a drain pipe.
maybe with some unfinished tires, it would have made a better impression
Going to get treps soon
And bang engine rebuild!
You don't know about the 606?
@@olemortenelstad2571 depends who built it.
I’ve thrashed on my 606 for 20k miles, massive blow by but it just won’t quit.
@@HairHelmet u sure it not from the vacuum pump. They pump into the engine

Impressive hp but a standard Land Rover would do same job
Don’t think you can work out how steep it is, it slides down with the brakes on
Mercedes OM606 ???
