It definitely doesn't. This is almost real time.. showing all the problems and fiddly time consuming things, including tea breaks. This series makes me feel better about why it takes me hours and hours and hours to do a simple task. ◉‿◉

Not only you daps, makes me feel better as well  Lol  and the boo boo at the end.

No tv ear so it's my only weekly viewing and handily released on the only night I have enough time to watch it.

I watched him stick a screwdriver in an abs sensor and lever it out, I thought "he will bust that"

Circa £4000 for a decent one

Ed Said he thinks that's the sound of the alloy threads stripping sooooooooo, surely just a quick helicoil will fix it ?  165Nm is a lot for a small looking bolt. :dunno:



Edd China Series - dapleb - 01-08-2021

Yeah steel bolt into alu and maybe it was 180nm or 200nm or 150nm.



Some bloke who obviously does this regularly said they always timesert or helicoil when it's off regardless....as they know if they don't they will most likely strip.



He also said the threads are cut with tri-lobe bolts at factory and him cleaning it up with a standard die may have altered the way the bolt contacts and helped the failure...either way it's bust and will need more fettling...how refreshingly realistic!

Lol


Arrrgghhh no....my pet hate...claw hammer for engineering!!


Edd China Series - leehenty - 08-08-2021

Claw hammer has no place in engineering workshop.



When I did Moose's VFR stator, it had those funny trilobe bolts. Doesn't really cut a proper thread. All of them broke trying to put them back as the shank is around 4mm. Well I didn't break any much but Moose made up for it. Ping shit, ping shit, bugger was the mantra. Lee have you got any helicoils ?

Still miss miss him and his drawings of stuff he wanted.
