Ferrari Daytona & Lamborghini 350GT - Remedying 2 classic Italian V12s | Tyrrell's Classic Workshop
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 27 сен 2024
- In this episode, we delve in to a “day in the life” in the workshop. Iain uses some tricks of the trade to recover lost cylinders in two V12's that haven't been fired up in anger for some time. The Lamborghini 350GT is about to be stripped for body restoration and a full service, but first it’s important to assess thoroughly how it drives before the serious work starts, so parts (such as sticking brakes) can be dealt with at the same time. The Ferrari Daytona has already spent time in the workshop but has developed a running fault that requires further investigation.
Thank you once again to everyone for the overwhelming reception of these videos and for all the support of likes, subscribes and wonderful comments. It gives us tremendous encouragement for the future of this channel.

“We’ll just try her again, just because we can”
That’s as good an excuse as is needed 😎
I have revisited this video because of "Becaue of we can"!
would be rude not to
"Let's try and get the plug started, get it happy and there we go." This guy is like a Bob Ross of car mechanics.
A true sparkplugwhisperer
Yes! I was just thinking exactly that.
Iain needs to grow an afro. 😁
@@delahayenator To start the spark plug in an alloy head DOHC engine, I push a piece of fuel line over the plug, then insert it into the head to ensure it can enter the head without cross threading.
@@mattjacomos2795 yes that's a great tool for spark plugs on twincam engines
Came to this channel via Harry, and it's already one of my favourites, fascinating and informative , incredible knowledge and skill, yet presented with the care and patience that allow us to take it all in...Mr Tyrrell, you have probably forgotten more about classic cars than I will ever know, but thankyou so much for sparing the time to share some of that knowledge with us.
This exactly!
Myself also. I love his V-12 rebuild for his Espada.
Totally agree with you!
That V12 noise! Marvelous craftsmanship!!
I spend my days staring at computers and Iain spends his days staring at V12s.... I really didn’t think this through!
Right?
tell me about it...
Gave me a laugh. Thanks.
Steve Hertfordshire1 You, me, and most of the rest of the world.
Staring at v12s on my computerscreen 🤣
One video 2 glorious legendary Italian v12s being properly sorted out on the road! This channel is such a blessing for us that will never be able to own these cars or have a man this talented work on our cars. Such a sad state of affairs that many of these cars do sit and just rot under their own weight and not being properly exercised. Thank god for people like Tyrell and Harry that properly cane these great legends now and then to show us how great motoring once was.
Wrenching with a Rolex Diver is another example, Rolex was created for the explorer and not the investment banker. Meant to be worn. Thank you Tyrell for letting us into your world.
"Let's see what she's like when we open the taps.... Oh Yes!" Always blown away by your knowledge Mr Tryrrell "The Prof!" Thanks for sharing these insights into classic cars - I'm no mechanic but these are fascinating and a must watch!
Yes. A. True pleasure to watch you. Work
did eejit Tyrrell would put a glass Eye to sleep... he knows he,s Craft!! But adding A bucket load O shite in between !! he,s a drawn out sack O shit
Good heavens these classics sound AMAZING
A petrolhead’s dream, this channel. Harry’s Garage got me here and I love it when their videos pop up. Lunch time viewing sorted 👌
me too :)
@Ben Hicks...ditto:-)
lol me too
Me too, excellent content
You're not wrong.
We have had a Daytona in the family from new (1973). Father-in-law bought it to replace his V12 E Type which kept 'missing' cylinders. We all love it and this year it was passed on to the next generation of the family. It is fabulous to drive, but there's always something to do. Saying that we love it and your video catches the fun, - that lightweight flywheel means it's a really free running engine, but if you bring the clutch in with insufficient throttle, it 'dies' instantly. Could go on about it forever, but you've made me smile alright!!
That V12 of the Daytona singing up to redline, gave me goosebumps! Loving the slightly modified format of this video where you also test drive the cars. Looking forward to more.
Damn this channel! Hedge needs trimming, grass needs cutting, car needs washing, etc, etc.
I think I'm hooked to your videos and Harry's and nothing else is getting done! Fantastic, thanks.
At 76 years of age I have heard you name often over the years, it’s a pleasure and a privilege to “meet” you at last, truly a craftsman, a delight to watch. Thank you, very best regards, Peter
Been a while - glad to see you're well Peter
At 78 years of age I think of all the videos I must have missed. I gotta ((gifted)) a "smart"!!! Mobile phone only a couple of years ago (I never wanted one). Marvellous, in-depth presentation, quiet, knowledgeable, a benison for us car starved people in India. I began driving on my Dad's Fiat 1100 when I was 10. Hats off to your delightful work
Hearing the two engines come back to full life is pure music to your ears! Video's like these are the only way most of us can enjoy these stunning classics, thank you.
24:42 "Struck lucky there." Yes, the sort of luck had by knowledge and experience.
Well produced- good lighting, good sound, camera work that does not call attention to itself (bless you!), not too short, and not too long.
No ridiculous intro, no annoying background music, no over zealous presenter, the list goes on. It's amazing how little faff is needed when the core content is excellent.
The more you practice, the luckier you get!
That was my thought exactly, that's not luck, that's tons of experience knowing what to look for.
Such an immense amount of knowledge, experience and skill so no luck involved 🙂
If only my university lecturers could have explained things so clearly.......
Delivered in the restrained way of speaking that the British are known for in a clear and concise manner.
I came here from Harry’s G too. What a privilege to watch and listen to this gentleman. The Engine Whisperer Extraordinaire. Legend indeed. Thank you Ian.
This channel is just perfect, informative and interesting! Loads of detail is exactly what folk want to watch! Perfect
These videos are a perfect compliment to Harry's Garage, thank you for taking the time to produce them. They provide a perfect balance between intrigue, interest, information and entertainment.
I feel underwhelmed clicking the like button. There should be button called “legend”
Or at least 'really like'.
Agreed, and watching Iain at work is akin to watching a skilled physician diagnosing a particular malady in a patient. Maybe a new title for Iain's channel could be Dr Tyrell's Car Clinic.
Oops, sorry Iain, Tyrrell, of course.
Ya right
@@jeffharper6259 Piacere davvero!
I suspect this gentleman has forgotten (this morning) more about car mechanics than most "professionals" will ever learn. Fascinating.
The steering wheel on that 350gt is absolutely gorgeous!
This is one of the best automotive channels on RUclips. Bravo.
I feel like an apprentice when Mr Tyrrell speaks to the camera
Please, please, please never ever stop making these. Thank you.
We are incredibly excited to be part of this, Iain is an absolute master.
More insight than Jay or Doug could ever have. Intuition and knowledge applied to common sense. A happy motor is a joy to behold!
The knowledge level is just amazing!
This channel is excellent. Watching this is the best kind of escapism.
The 550 and the Land Rover in the background... patiently waiting to see more of those!
Speedy Beef I spotted a Fiat 850, would love to see the Tyrell touch on a very basic Italian car.
@@irvb9881 Is that the red one with the gorgeous wheels behind the 550 Maranello? Or what is that one?
@@buse67 it's a Fiat Dino Spider
Sabeel I love your comment . Not many people understand older car's or motorcycle's .Time is required . And yes we need a legend button
This is quickly becoming one of my favourite channels. Especially with these operatic V12s!
The V12 is an endangered species. I had a Mercedes with one but it never matched the character of Ferrari’s and Lamborghini’s. What a fantastic series this is, and what a pleasure to see such a pristine working environment compared to the chaos on other channels.
Thank you Harry for introducing us to this charming fella. I love these videos on some proper Italian cars with heaps of character.
30 minutes isn’t long enough!!!
Another delightful episode. Cheers Harry for persuading Iain to start this channel. To any petrolhead this is a real treat, only made better by the joint episodes with the Espada. Congratulations.
Iain thank you, really enjoyed the hands on fault diagnostics with following road tests. I also enjoyed your series of films with Harry and his engine rebuild. Brilliant content please keep them coming. Best wishes. Nick
I would die in this shop. To be taught by such a knowledgeable person on all the most beautiful and legendary machines would be a dream come true. Just awesome!
14:30 being form the States I thought you were turning directly into an oncoming car 😳
Same.
indeed, especially after a rolling stop.....
Same here. My brain was going "On your left! On your left!"
no in the UK we actually know how to drive we don't need idiot proof autos!
@@futnostalgia
You missed the point entirely.
To quote LJK Setright, "If there's one thing I like more than a straight six, it's two of them".
Sadly missed is Mr Setright. A truly great motoring journo.
Yes very sadly missed, as I well remember his exploits in an E Type rushing everywhere
I vaguely recall Setright's Aston Martin debacles. Can't recall the model nor the magazine (Car perhaps?), but his fiddling with it, helped get me hooked on old, fussy crap. A long time ago, most of those old magazines were dumped due to their condition, but as a teen, I dug through the garbage to save what I could.
@@santosh911 Could it be Bristols rather than Astons?
@@promerops you're probably right. Tinkering seemed to be a part of the culture of the time. I also recall some tests of Alpina's first experiments with a BMW 2002 around the same time and by the same magazine.
This is wonderful. Perfect tempo and detail level, topped up with some absolutely beautiful V12 melodies. Heaven.
All vids are so cool! Hooked and whatched them all in one weekend. If I ever have a classic car, Iain is the only one to touch it. If I ever have children I want him to raise them. What a fanastic channel. Like a lot of people say: as a petrol head, thinking knowning it all, I learned so much already. And no music, just the college teaching of Iain. Perfect.
I love the Lamborghini. Great colour combination and beautiful interior.
the sound of that Daytona .wow..... great video thatnks for taking the time to share your work...
I love your gentle touch and the fact you wear a Rolex whilst tinkering with these V12 beasts.
Harry's next video: 'So I bought a Daytona.' Oh I do hope so!
Making me relearn my early days as an apprentice with fiat in the late 70s i could work for someone like you youre a tonic!
Wonderful. Seriously I could watch one of these every day. As you know, and as all the commentators do also, you and your team are the real deal.
Absolutely superb. Please don't stop these videos. Always lusted after a Daytona but could never stretch to it. When we lived in Bracknell in the late 60's, early 70's, my brother and myself used to pushbike over to Egham to watch Maranello test driving the Daytona's, and others, up and down the Egham bypass. Probably could not do it nowadays - too many cameras!
Love how youtube subtitles [music] when the engine is running well :)
Brilliant videos...no high fives, no 'sick', no woo hoo, no crazy fake deadlines...just brilliantly explained and beautifully presented skill and knowledge,,, I wish I was young enough to be an apprentice
I've loved all the previous vid's, they've all been wonderful but this one was even a little better, my cheeks hurt from grinning like a fool the whole way through, it was great hearing you describe what was happening n why, to see you fix the problems and explain the what n how, then experiencing the Daytona getting a run, that sound, truly beautiful, thanks so much.
Very enjoyable.The sound of that Daytona takes me back to being 13 years old in the passenger seat of Dads Daytona coupe.It was new in 74 from Ian Anthony Ferrari.The reg was TEN444L.He sold it in 75 .I wonder where that lovely navy blue car is today.Thank you so much for spending time on these fabulous video snapshots.
Lovely video - and a joy to see someone who REALLY knows engines and how to treat them with care and attention. My dad was an engineer and had the same approach - don’t just go replacing everything - check, consider, recheck and only do work that has to be done. Wonderful mechanical sympathy.
I waited a full 4 seconds before clicking on this video
Ahmad Abdallah
Me Too!!!
You take it too long
As a 65 year old "Guy"... who loves cars, your videos have opened up a new chapter!!! It's like I'm in school again. Never did I imagine I would get this close to so many ground breaking vehicles. And observe a Master at work.. T Y...🎩🇺🇸🎩
I just love these videos. Ian’s delivery is so calm and he explains everything with the right amount of detail. Keep them coming!
It’s the Daytona’s light load / low revs sound that gets me . It just says I’ve got sooooo much in reserve , just let me know , I’m ready.
My favourite is though the Lamborghini. Such a sweet sounding engine.
Wonderful Italian V12s! They do make such a great sound, and yet they’re so smooth (when running correctly!). Back in the day, I used to run an XJS HE and also a late model Silver Shadow Mk1. When jumping straight out of XJS into the RR, I was always amazed at how much smoother and quieter the V12 was. Under any other circumstances I would marvel at how smooth and quiet the RR was! Very much Looking forward to your next video....
Spectacular video again, sir. You have such a talent from the years of experience you have. And so eloquently spoken a narration. I’ve been watching you since you started with Harry and have watched every video. I so look forward to more and more. Even this one being three years old is like brand new. Cheers. Rochester, New York.
Thank you for your kind comments. Greetings to Rochester!
Another brilliant episode! Thank you Iain Tyrrell
I first heard a Daytona while driving in northern Italy in, I think, 1970. Autostrada. We were doing around 110kmh in a Hillman Imp when when this beautiful car went past us. I can still hear the engine notes.
Peter Townsend's thinking, "It never sounded that bloody sweet when I had it!".
That’s because only one of his ears works! 😄
I'm a Harry's Garage punter and that's the first time watching and I have to say you're a natural and come across very authentic, cheers.
Amazing, loving these video's Tyrell, keep 'em comming! ;D
Each time I watch a video of yours I realize how little I know about properly maintaining a classic cars. I’ve been incorrectly applying the auto repair technics and methods I learned as a kid in the late 70’s and early 80’s. Now I’m almost afraid to do anymore work on any of my classics without watching your videos. 😁
Absolutely essential petrol head viewing that you simply cannot miss....your knowledge Dr Tryrrell ; Just blows me away...wonderful.
That Daytona enginr picking up from, I suppose 3/4k rpm, sounds sublime!
It’s lovely to watch the quintessential Britishness of Mr. Tyrrell, that understated succinctness that Americans don’t get. I live in Victoria Australia and not once does Mr. Tyrrell say, ‘it’s like,’ followed by a facial expression or sound effect that is supposed to replace language. Some of us still appreciate how sublime the English language can be when properly used. Mr. Tyrrell obviously knows this and has the confident manner of a professional with hard won knowledge in his chosen field. It’s pleasing to watch a master at work. I too came across from Mr. Metcalfe’s channel and thank you for encouraging Mr. Tyrrell to venture into the world of cyberspace. It’s a virtual toy shop for people like me who may never experience the joys of owning such cars. Though I have been blessed with some very nice motorcycles. More of Messers Metcalf and Tyrrell would improve RUclips immeasurably. Well done gentlemen.
My dad thought me how to check plugs and leads the same way on my A35 and Morris Marina back in the mid 80’s. Same tech, different quality. “Tight and a quarter” to know if a plug was torqued correctly!
My condolences,,, my Dad had 3 (THREE!) Morris Marinas.
Mr Tyrrell is an amazing master mechanic. Never seen skills/knowledge like his ever demonstrated before. I'm sure his hourly rate is a big number, but you clearly get what you pay for, and you probably end up saving a lot of money in the long run.
Great content since the beginning from a humble and skilled man ! Love it :)
Iain, you say 'LUCK', what an understated statement, your experience is 'brilliant', so good to watch a 'master' at work. Regards, RichardA.
Thanks for this; much needed in these dire times.
Among the very best of car shows out there, and only the 4th episode. Congratulations sir!
The "greenhouse" of the 350GT is simply gorgeous...the entire car really...
My Fathers boss had one and had me in it when I was 9, that was in 1968, it was for me like a spaceship and I think it's when I caught the car bug, it still affect me the same today.
I especially love the way the windscreen curves into the doors.
Superb, keep it up. As an education on the older Italian V12's, this is a priceless resource. Superb.
11:30 Now that’s a happy face!
Pasquale I caught myself smiling too! There’s some superior quality automotive drama going on at this channel. Keep it up!
Me too! 😂
I got that same grin at 11:29 and felt a connection at 11:30
The absolute beauty of genuine automotive drive ability troubleshooting skills. You don’t see that anymore in the industry; it’s become more of a parts replacers.
It is cool how fuel delivery technology and the air fuel delivery systems at the time allowed you to fine tune the overall performance of an engine.
Liked how spark plug test to verify for spark and the strength of the spark jumping the wire.
Verified the air mixture by pinpointing which cylinder was at fault with the misfire.
a trick with a simple fouled plug is to pull the wire loose just enough so there is an air gap at the terminal on the plug , then the coil voltage does not get bled off thru the shorted plug, once fired and cleaned by revving a bit, shut down and re attach fully. great two stroke MC trick also. if I owned one of these I'd also have a pre oil system . really a great idea and not too expensive. I used the smaller Moroso accusump on my GT Mustang. engine stores its own oil pressure for a shot before start next start up.
The most beautiful classic cars ever!!!!!!
I remember doing this to my own cars in the 70's. Tuning carbs and checking for spark. I even had a carb synchronizer for balancing multi carb cars. Most shops won't even work on carbed cars anymore.
Tyrell however is a true exotic car whisperer.
I love the way your running your channel now,doing episodes on just one car at a time and ypur getting into every detail(which we gearheads like) please do this full time and do a video/car every day. You know ALOT about the car your doing which is great. Keep doing this and your channel will please a lot of people. Thanks from Newfoundland
Brilliant! So glad to see someone who is a real expert rather than a generic RUclipsr buying exotics without knowing how they work. Love the channel - please keep posting.
This channel, and Harry’s Garage, are as good as car videos get on RUclips. Brilliant stuff and thanks so much for sharing.
I'm relatively new to this channel. Excellent no nonsense videos and information. Keep up the good work.
One of if not my favourite RUclips channels. Soothing to listen to your knowledge without shouting like the majority of the other names doing car vids! Please keep them coming and thank you!
First time I have ever commented on any you tube channel. Mr Tyrrell I wish I had you around when I spent £1000's on an F355 I had in a past life, your passion is so obvious. When I get another one, she will be looked after by you. Love the content. Thank you
would Iain take apprenticeship , I ll bring my sleeping bag and live of bangers & mash ?
Seriously, one of my favorite automotive channels on RUclips. No nonsense, just all high-quality content that I could just watch over and over again. Thank you for making these videos!
I love watching Ian work on cars. Not just the fact that he’s very knowledgeable about so many makes, it’s his patience and care for the machines that I enjoy. He makes it interesting and makes you want to watch. Well done Ian! Al (fellow car guy from the states)
Just love how you take us along for the journey. You tell us that what may be sounding good is actually terrible and only half of what it should be. It is amazing to me that a V12 with half of it's cylinders not working sounded as nicely as your second car did. I can tell you that American engines wouldn't be doing the same thing. You ended with how you appreciate us, but I want to say how much I appreciate you letting us view your world of cars few of us will ever see or ever be able to work on.
Thank you mr. Iain Tyrrell that we gained more understanding of how unique, delicate, personal and stunning are the handmade small production series models on both Ferrari and Lamborghini. The old classics are the result of the hard work of their builders.
My dream cars are the Ferrari Spyder 250 GT SWB California Models and the Ferrari 250 GT SWB Berlinetta models as well as the Ferrari 250 GT Lusso.
Of the modern Ferraris, the impractical but damn beautiful Ferrari Testarossa 512 TR and Ferrari 599 GTB.
But my first love as a little boy was the 1967-1969 Volkswagen Types 2, with a 21-Window Sunroof. My father was a transporter from 1970-1974.
I love this channel and this guy. Not one of these wannbe you tube car reviewers who know nothing. This guy can actually tune and fix these classics and knows his stuff inside out. Brilliant stuff.
Another wonderful video. I haven’t got a clue when it comes to mechanical knowledge but love classic cars and have a deep respect for expert knowledge such as this. A brilliant, brilliant channel. Thank you
Fabulous to see the 350GT, I've never seen one in the flesh, but I had a book on Lamborghini as a kid and must have read it a dozen times. It's a lovely thing, and so rare.
Absolutely fantastic RUclips channel.
A natural in front of the camera with a mix of specific car history technical information, light tutorial all in a relaxed light-hearted tone.
Camera work is to a professional standard. Thanks
Mercedes 300 sel 6.3 road test?
Mentioned it on the first video, heard nothing yet. I'm a fan of the other cars, but the big Benz has to be my favourite.
Some 45 years ago a then neighbour imported one from the USA. It took him a year to get it certified and registered in Germany. With german headlights and bumpers. His son will give it to his son within the next ten years 😊
Holy Mother, the sound of that Daytona! It's even better than you could possibly imagine it would be!
He's wearing a Rolex working on the engine....😂
“Because he can...”
It's okay, it's his work Rolex. Because he likes nice watches, and he can. Best of luck to him.
Ray G sure ☺️ just that you don't it that much... ☺️ when i start seeing him wearing a Patek i'll start to worry a bit 😂
It’s the least expensive machine in the shed.
They were/are supposed to be tool watches for divers/pilots etc
After seeing you on Harry's garage i was fearing the worst and thought we would be seldom seeing you, then i get home and see this. Thanks Ian, what a treat!
This is the first one of your videos that I have ever watched, I got to say I truly envy where you are in life right now. As great as it would be to own these cars, to be a mechanic like yourself and get to work on multiple cars with your what seems to be an all around knowledge of these vehicles...actually seems to be the ultimate.. You appear to be in the perfect stage of living life.. Envy indeed..on multiple levels👍🏻👍🏻! Not only getting to drive all these cars but the genuine joy it seems to bring you I want to just say working on them but it appears to be what you’re doing is more than just working on them🖖🏻😉 You got a subscriber 👍🏻
