Splendid job guys. No jigs,no extensive work shop gadgets,,no documentation, manuals. Yet these guys ,keep their brains in their hands ,for a fine finish . Wel done.

This brings back memories of my father and I repairing the family car in the garage. I didn't enjoy it at the time, but now I miss it. Thank you for the video.

Nice to see someone actually rebuilding a water pump as opposed to just replacing it. This is the way to do things - 100% top marks

After watching many time lapse videos of US big blocks rebuilds in sterile workshops with the latest and greatest full-auto equipment and computer supported tuning, this video made me smile from ear to ear 😁!! Honest hard manual work outside on a classic English engine... I really enjoyed watching this vid, job well done! It made me think of dismantling my Triumph T140E engine in my shed... 👍

It's the way i do it, nothin fancy a good workbench made solid, get my cast iron engine upon it with a hoist, wrenches, rags torque wrench carb cleaner an all that good stuff an start tearing into it, it's not the space shuttle as tarylfixesall says. it's the only real way ta learn about this stuff, putting a compression gage on the engine and comparing readings when valves have been refaced and lapped, proper valve lash, maybe a ring job? pull apart the carb and clean out Gerty's emulsion tube properly serviced air cleaner, its all good. I work on portable generators so I know you have to have a well running engine to turn a genny of rated KW.

Jeez, I'd love to grab you guys and transport you to a modern, well-equipped workshop and see just how much better you could be. I really am humbled by what you achieve with so little. You should feel very proud of yourselves because I know I am. Well done guys

Absolutely fantastic. I love that his bench vise is two of his buddies, and that the overspray from the paint just drifted onto the side of the truck in the background, and that when the seal didn't fit, there was no pause in the work--just get the torch! LOVE IT!!!

Ahahahah, look how things was simple an easy, an look how complicated it become, honestly I really miss the good ole days !!

I loved working on these motors back in the days when you modified your engines for more HP all by yourself. It was fun.

This brings back memories of repairing my first cars engine. No engine stand,bench or even a workshop, just basic hand tools. Looks primitive, but it works with these simple engines. Having those engine remanufacturer tools at the end were a luxury I never had.

Looks good. I do have one warning though. On rod and main bearings.. NEVER put oil on the side that does not have a a rotating surface. Such as when you go to install your crank and rod bearings, they need to be DRY. It can cause you to spin a bearing because the excess oil can force the bearing away from its mounting surface. Speaking from past experience. :)

I enjoy all videos on engine rebuilding, but the videos like this one tell me that rebuilding an engine is easier than I thought. Thank you for the video.

This is an engine that I could easily O/H since I am familiar with all its principles. At 92, this age mechanical tech is right up my alley!

Being a 1956 engine, it will be one of the last of the 803cc A-series (not 850cc), as fitted to the Series II Morris Minor, prior to them going to 948cc for the 1956-on Morris Minor 1000. The spin-on oil filter is one identifying feature; for some reason, they fitted a cartridge-type oil filter (more awkward to replace!) to the later Morris Minor versions...

cracking job lads thank you great to see people who know what to do to a old engine and back to life .

That's what you call "old school" ! good work there gents

Nice restoration. And thanks for using ambient sound and not some horrible musical track over it. Keep up the great work.

Hands on mechanic.. Birds in the background. Beautiful green paint. Great atmosphere. No Covid.

In early 1950s I was in Europe and bought a used Morris minor convertible. We drove it all over Europe and brought it back to Florida. It had several owners after that I saw it often it had a long life.

Back in the mid-60s when I moved to Texas had a girlfriend whose dad was a church of Christ preacher. He had a couple of Morris minors that he enjoyed rehabbing. Watched him go through the engine on one of them and at the time I kind of chuckled because I was running a big Chrysler V8. I thought his engine looked like the starter on my car. His cars are probably still running. Mines probably been scrapped, put on a steamer to Japan rebuilt into a new car, worn out shipped back remelted into yet another new car. Enjoyed the video!

From North Queensland, Australia. Thanks for the great videos. I watch each one...keep it up & thank you.

Brings back memories...my father was an engine fitter working for Rover and so he didn't mind taking engines apart and putting them back together in the early 60's, teaching me in the process. He never used a torque wrench reckoning his "feel" was more accurate. Good 'ole A series 803cc engine: three main bearings and tiny big-end bearings (didn't last long on the new-fangled motorways) plus no tensioner on the timing belt. Thankfully improved over the years but they always had a good appetite for oil IMHO.

It’s fun watching people work on these smaller engines

Just for future reference you’re only supposed to put assembly lube on the inner layer of main and rod bearings. Putting assembly lube around the outside of the bearings increases likelihood of spinning the bearing.

It's an light duty motor. I doubt they'll be going over 120 kph for prolonged periods of time. It'll be fine.

Great little engines. Absolutely nothing fancy, 950ccs of ho-hum reliability. Joseph Lucas (the prince of darkness) electrics You could use leads from a carpenter pencil glued together for dynamo brushes, and other cob-ups that got you going and lasted pretty well. Notice the projection on the rear of the starter. It was squared off so you could put a wrench on it and turn it backwards if the starter drive got stuck (no kidding) there was even a wrench in the tool kit to fit it. Built one in my dorm room in engineering school, drove the RA nuts. Great fun. Never knew what MOWOG stood for, but I remember it. Thanks for the memories.
