- Last week it was looking increasingly like the engine would have to come out. This week things are looking more hopeful for the InfluEnzo, my cheap Ferrari 308. I also get to start it up without a silencer on..!!!

Your boundless positivity in the face of the Influenzo, is like the 'unstoppable force meets an immovable object' analogy.
Love it and get them T-shirts produced , especially the last one, very classy!
My favorite is the last one too!!
Why not make some and give the profits to the NHS or some appropriate charity. I’d buy one or two.
If your new exhaust flows better, you will need to adjust the carburetors to compensate. Be prepared to re-jet and re-tune the system.
Your enthusiasm is just amazing to watch and follow Jack...Those t-shirt designs are fantastic, I’d definitely get some made up as well as mugs etc.
Thanks Carl, have a good weekend my friend!
This is the only RUclips channel I watch where my stomach goes from normal, into knots, back to normal, into knots again, and finally somewhere inbetween as a smile breaks over my face as I hope that it will be ok in the end - every god damn video I watch. Its a real roller coaster ride every episode. And I don't even own the car, one like it, or have any vested interest, other than it all works out for you.
Thank you mate, have a great weekend!
I'm loving your enthusiasm for the 308 and I'm glad it hasn't broken you. Yet!!!!!
Yeah! More mayhem!! I’m really sorry for your misadventures with this car, but it is REALLY entertaining 😜👍
It's a part of the experience! I've had a couple of Italian classics, lots of spannering, less driving, but great experiences.....it was even better getting rid of those cars... (-;
Luv the vids...can’t wait to see the end result.good luck
an encouraging outcome, hope this really is it, we are all cheering you on!
Great news, well done! A few of us called it as coolant mixing, good to have it verified. I can imagine the relief you felt hearing that!
I have so much respect for your ingenuity and determination. Can't wait for the next instalment.
Great video and so happy she’s all ok... can’t wait to see and hear the new exhaust!
So pleased for you...... yet again, really good news and a smart move taking it to the professionals. A good fun vid..thanks. 👍🏽🇬🇧
Really enjoying these and your never failing optimism is just great in these bleak times. You’ve set the bar high!! Keep it up and really looking forward to the next one....
Thanks again for sharing this. I was really looking forward to watch this vid, and now I am again for the next one. Keep up the good work. Cheers
Thank you Patrice!
My favorite “show” on RUclips. Can’t wait to hear the new exhaust sound!
Thanks for posting an update...FINALLY..I was beginning to go through withdraws.
Great news been waiting for that all week
Your enthusiasm is infectious, avid viewing.👍
Brilliant I look forward to you’re weekly update! A great job again chief, keep up the good work you’re enthusiastic videos are what we need right now! Legend
Thank you Kevin 🙏
Another great video! I’m so happy for you that things are working out. Thanks for the clip of the engine running without a muffler, reminded me of my previous’67 Eleanor Mustang, the side mufflers did little to nothing. Cheers!
good to see the channel gathering the momentum it really deserves.....
Really enjoying your videos keep up the good work 👍
I am so glad that things are looking so much better. Thank you for your boundless enthusiasm and optimism. Top bloke.
good show! you keep getting lucky with every hurdle.
Great news. Glad for you and the influenzo. Really curious about the new exhaust. And glad you found the design funny as it was meant to be.
Sensational stuff! Indeed a labour of love. You have convinced me this is all possible, even for me.
I've only recently discovered your channel and I'm loving it!
Wonderful to hear, thanks!
one of the coolest vids I have seen, well done 27
Loving your positivity. Keep it up as helping me though lockdown blues!
I must say the creative quality of some of your viewers is amazing, very impressive and well thought out. Wish you well, I am late in coming to your channel, but thoroughly enjoying it, especially all the juicy details. So glad it looks like another "win" belated as it may be.
Awesome, can't wait to hear the new pipe 👍👍👍👍🏁
That’s very good news to hear!
Love your enthusiasm. Best car channel on RUclips.
Thank you!
Really enjoy your channel. Love the ferrari journey and your enthusiasm. Good luck and hope to see your car zooming around the Cotswolds
Fab Nigel, thanks for the kind words!
Great news and so inspired by your videos. Of course you should do the tee-shirts, if not for the money then for your fans. You've built up a great following and we all look forward to every update on the Influenzo.
Fantastic result! Cannot wait to year the new exhaust.
Brilliant vid. Don't ever change 😂😎
We really still are children aren’t we? I still remember drilling holes in my 50cc Vespas muffler when I 14 and I still giggle a little every time I hear a ludicrously loud car😂.
My 2nd gen MX-5 developed a hole in the exhaust and a first it was hardly noticeable so I sort of grew into it sounding a tiny bit more well "more". Only then I had a drive that wen through a tunnel and oh my. Still it could be fun to a have a switch of sorts.
Don't forget 'Happy Families' playing cards and clothes pegs on our push bikes 😀
@@WoolyBuggerPicker
Omg I used to put clothes pegs on my Choppers spokes 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
FEE_lo: and a great friend of mine drilled holes in a coke can which we used as a “silencer” on his Raleigh Runabout way back in 1975. Oddly enough my current series of “toys” all have standard exhaust systems.
Have I finally grown up???
Phil B I’m afraid it’s a sign of the times. Unless it’s a classic of some sort we need to pass smog yearly. I’m planning a resto-mod as a loophole. However if it isn’t a legal restriction that makes you keep those fun killers on your toys.... shame... shame on you 😂😂😂.
Awesome sounding with open pipes. Glad the coolant is sorted. Keep it up.
I can't wait for the new exhaust!
Great vid and glad your car is ok! Can’t wait for the new exhaust!
LOL, love the laughing at the end. Looking forward to the new exhaust!
As I said before, you're a brave man with a good sense of humor! Good luck with the new exhaust. I'm sure that it will look and sound great!
Great to see your oil-in-coolant issue was not! Also, the exhaust silencer you've purchased looks a lot like the version I had on my 308 and it did sound fantastic! And yes a lift does make removal and install a much easier task. Good luck and keep having fun!
I'm 57 (based in East Sussex) - I *love* your videos. I love seeing you so happy with your toy. It makes me happy. Enjoy it and keep smiling. It's a pleasure to see you deriving so much pleasure - I'm not really into cars, but I have an 18 year old Honda which I've owned for 10 years and until recently I've had to make some repairs to myself. There is a definitely a certain satisfaction to be derived from doing repairs yourself and I too have gotten the bug of enjoying my car a lot more as a result of my fixes to mine. Can't wait to hear how the new exhaust sounds!
Thanks Jez, great to hear that even a non car guy enjoys it!
I'm so happy it wasn't the head gasket. Older cars so love to give us joy and pain! Awesome ride sir!
Looking forward to the new exhaust.loving your vids.
Thz for the new video, good luck!
Sounded like a Spitfire at the end lol Glad things aren’t as bad as you first thought, can’t wait to hear the new exhaust.
aha! I think that is what I suggested in my comment on your previous video, ie the boiling water during overheating has agitated crud in the radiator and also possibly a chemical reaction, different property coolant is defo something to look into, hope it rights itself after a good flush and fresh coolant, looking hopeful though which is good news.
Thanks Chris! Enjoy the weekend!
Glad things are progressing. Watching your videos has convinced me to buy a late model Mitsubishi Mirage as my next vehicle, as engineering was not an option in the design.
Great video .. thank you
Well I guess having a car with issues makes for better videos, love the positivity and patience, well done
Brilliant fun, can’t wait for the next one!, get it ready and drive to Le Mans in September for race day 👍✌️🥳
Also check out Ratarossa as just got a video out on exhaust
Possibly the best videos on RUclips, cheers for the entertainment 👏👍
Phew! I've been thinking about this during the last week. Thank goodness it appears to be something less than you first thought. I watched the last vid again and began to doubt the head gasket theory, it didn't look milky enough. You are certainly being tested by this car, stick with it. It will be such a reward in the end. Looking forward to hearing the new exhaust.
This video has it all! Microphones, melodrama and PJs! Really pleased on the coolant front - result 👍🏻
Thanks Ben!!
Your channel along with Matt Armstrong's are my favourite...love the realness...makesme want to restore a Pug 205 Gti...always regret the time I bought a Golf Gti instead of the Pug!
I had a sneaking suspicion your head gasket was fine! Great job getting it checked out, you must be feeling a lot better again. Of course loving the content Jack, thanks mate looking forward to seeing that new exhaust installed.
Thank you Tristan!!!
Great news on the engine!!
Great video Jack. Very entertaining. 👍
Loving the content and the Pug and 308 😷👍
I’m glad it wasn’t anything serious with the coolant! Can’t wait to hear the new exhaust!
Thank you for starting it without an exhaust. This is always a must during exhaust mods.
Great news that it doesn't look like a head gasket failure. Love your reaction to the exhaust free tune!
😄🙏🙏🙏
fantastic car RUclips guy with zero ego. great vid
Bring on the new exhaust!! Glad the engine turned out ok. Keep up the great videos so entertaining.
This car has taken on a life of its own, and your enthusiasm for rooting out all it's imperfections is contagious and compellingly entertaining!! I have an old Jeep Wrangler TJ, and like the InfluEnzo, my Jeep seems to double-down just when I've fixed something and I'm feeling brilliant! One day it will be perfect! Anyways, I've always loved the 308 as my favorite car, and never missed an episode of Magnum PI! In fact, I was in Honolulu in '83, and looked for but never found Robin Masters' 308. Love watching these updates!!
Thank you and enjoy your Jeep, love a Wrangler!! Nice tough and simple cars!
There are more plot twists on this channel than in the soaps, you seem to have a good video formula it feels very episodic.
Good to see another happy ending! ... ish. I really think you should do the T-shirts, not to just to raise money but because the public want them!
You had me going at the end there too. Great news about the coolant. Probably just needs an "Italian tuneup"!
Somehow I get the feel of Hoovie’s garage😬 Great news on the coolant Jack!👌🏻
Fantastic news, I'm really pleased for you. Hope the exhaust works out well. I have to say I think this channel is right up there with Harry's Garage and Tyrell's Classic Workshop, well done and thanks for the brilliant entertainment.
Thank you and great name!!
@@Number27 haha, hopefully I will bring you an extra bit of luck along the way!
Omg!!! That sounded down right evil!!!!! Excellent!!!😁
I was thinking radweld too as soon as I saw it. Things are going well! Great stuff! Wear the top half of those pj's in your next film. Keep up the good work. 👍
That's great news! Now for the exhaust....
Oh the joys of classic car ownership,I was once the proud owner of a 1983 911 SC and just loved the tinkering 👍
Great work Jack can't wait for the next update (assuming your neighbours haven't got to you!!).
Your facial expression @12:43 is priceless! 😆👍
And as usual, I've enjoyed this new episode in the Influenzo series very much! Thanks for sharing.
Thank you Alain!!
So happy for you that the 'coolant' issue seems to have turned out ok. I'm not exactly sure why, but watching your ups and downs with this thing, I somehow almost feel like it's my own car. Your crack-up on hearing it without an exhaust was quite priceless...
Ha!! Thank Roger.. enjoy the weekend!
Really glad you sorted that problem I always say as we go we learn more about our classic cars and that’s the fun . Just going out for the drive and having that classic car grin is worth more then any money in the world 👍 jesus your exhaust was loud made my dog jump 😂😂😂
It was louder in the flesh than came across in the video!
I think every car where I've had to replace the pipe even the manifold I've fired it up without. My V4 bike sounds ace without until my ears suffer! (20 seconds later!) Fingers crossed still re: coolant.
Is that a Honda V4 by any chance?
tony sansom yes, NC30.
For all the possible terminal disasters the car and your 🍀 lucky Pjs have not let you down I hope we get the weather now for you to get out and drive it take care and keep doing your great videos luv the R8 one you did 👍
Lucky PJs rule!!!
I bought a 308 GTB Vetroresina, from my couch, unseen, from collectingcars during lockdown. 😂Runs like a dream so far - bodywork needs love but i am so far lucky. Love this series - very timely.
Yes Jack, get the T-shirts printed 😉👍 Loving the story. Hope you love the new exhaust as much as you did the old one .. @9.40 😉😁
One of the most interesting videos and something different on youtube, brill
Fab thanks George!!
I'm loving the InfluEnzo videos Jack! Cracking stuff bud🙂, running the 308 with the exhaust off it sounds like a Hemi with crazy lumpy cams 🤣. I'm looking forward too you're next update buddy 👍
Ah, one of my most loyal viewers! Thank you Ryan, have a great weekend fella!
@@Number27 Cheers Jack! You have a good one too buddy 👍
I had to replace most of the exhaust on my 81 GTV pretty much from the collector to rear. No more back box, just a centre-mounted hotdog. Yes she's loud, but oh what a joy. And you get the full range of off-throttle burbles, pops and crackles.
Quality video
So entertaining and like a Netflix series I can’t wait for the next
Well done that man, my heart sank for you when suspected oil in the expansion, properly chuffed for you now. Roll on the new exhaust and next video
Wonderful!! I knew that the headgaskets weren't blown, that goop just did not look like oil migration into the water to me. So brilliant news. Indeed, gotta get rid of those stock exhausts which strangle all Ferrari engines!! I have a Kreissieg on my 348, and when I give it some, it puts a huge smile on my face.....
Looking forward to the next episode with your new exhaust and a clean cooling system......
The influenzo lives again!!
Cheers Kevin 🍻!!
Sounds like a Spitfire Merlin engine on start up. Magic!
Love love love your videos, you remind me of myself with my 30 year old 944 turbo 😂 can’t wait for the next one!! PS . hurry up! your super fan Dan 😉
Thanks Dan!! Enjoy the weekend!
The last time I anxiously waited for the next weekly episode was when I was a kid waiting for the next magnum Pi ! 😅. Absolutely loving your clips. Don’t want them to end. I secretly wish the enfluenzo keeps throwing curve balls for you to solve. It’s like magnum pi meets Sherlock Holmes meets Jay Leno’s garage 😁🤙🏼
Thank you so much, really appreciate the nice feedback!!
Ha! Everybody keeping their fingers crossed equals great succes! Good to hear it seems to be working out okay. Enjoyed the video again, especially the excessive giggling at the end and the look on your face. Reminded me of Sean Connery in the Hunt for Red October. Keep it coming please!
Thank you Arthur!! The support really helps!
Really love these vids, only realised today we were in contact on Facebook re my Mk1 Golf Campaign
Ah great! Enjoy the Golf!!
Congratulations on coolant fix it's great that the mot helped out if you didn't have that help shop air on the cylinder will resolve if there is a blown head gasket it will eventually push the coolant out of the radiator with cap off peace
Excellent news!
Sometimes a coolant and engine flush ie a “ fresh start “ either eliminates the issue , or helps to pinpoint it ..
Glad it worked out for you ...👍
A new zorst required I think...😂😂😂
