    I just restart my freelander 1.8, for the first time after, rebuild all engine. I double check all the electrical conection and fluidd, but hase same metalic sound like yours, and have some idle variation. Is normal? The idle variation can be from the small batery that i took from my 1.6 Toyota Corolla. I apreciate any advice. Thank you so much!!

    My first car was a 1957 100e that my father had sold a set of new Gulf tires to the owner. He returned two weeks later asking if we would give him his $100 back (that was what a set of 2 ply 13” tubeless tires cost back in 1964 and that included mounting and balancing). Well my father told him that he could not do that because he could not resale the tires as new to recupe his money, not to mention the labor of taking them off again. So the guy said that he would take a hundred dollars for the car because the r were engine was needing a rebuild. I was turning 16 in a few months so my dad agreed and told me to park it on the back corner behind the tire changing area and that I could only work on it when I was coughed up on my school work and my shift at the station. Our neighbors owned an auto parts and machine shop. So it only took me about a couple of hours to take the motor out and call them to pick it up. Luckily all of the bolts were SAE so that there were no special English tools required. But what was required was patience, it took our 3 months for the machine shop to get the rebuild kit and then a month to work it into the schedule. As you can imagine I was anxious to get it back, so I spent the time modifying it. Let me say that even though I had never seen this car before, the flathead engine was nothing new to me and my father. Our service truck, which was totally restored from the frame up, was a 1948 Ford F 150 with a flathead V 8. Well the little e100 was s powder blue paint that was faded and dull and worn through in place on top of the finders, so my first modification was to paint it. I choose Corvette Candy Apple Red Metal Flake, but in those days it was an enamel paint, and I had to water sand the dead paint off multiple times, paint it with a primer and when cured from sitting in the Florida sun, water sand it multiple times. Then came the time to spray the finished enamel. Luckily there was a retired man who knew how to paint and he gave me instructions and encouragement. It actually came out pretty good with on on or two runs that were not obvious until you looked closer. While I waited for the engine, I took the front bumper off and tossed it, jacked up the front suspension a little, put a set of the largest 13” tires on the rear, and on the inside I put a pair of fighter jet seatbelts that I bought at the surplus store, replaced the shifter knob with a brass small piston from a chainsaw, put a tube type radio in the glovebox sitting on a sling for shock absorption, wedged the speaker between the shifter and the firewall, and finally I could not afford a tachometer, but I took a pressure gage off of an old radiator cap tester that was being replaced and I drilled a hole in the water pump and tapped it and ran a 3/16” copper tube through the firewall and up through the dashboard and mounted the gage there on the right side of the speedometer. So when the engine revved, the gage went to higher pressure until it reached the “Redline”. It was hilarious as it made a clicking noise as it wound up and down. But it was a different time and this was a step above the Soap Box Derby and luckily I lived in a small town and had minimal encounters with heavy traffic and large trucks. Although the little 26 hp engine would scoot the car along at over 70 mph on a flat mile or more stretch of road. My parents must have realized the danger that this small car entailed, because they made me sell it and get a baby blue 1955 Chevy BelAire with a Blue Line 6 cylinder engine just before I graduated and went to college. I assume that my car might have been brought here by a military person who ordered it with left hand drive? I never knew of a Ford dealer who sold them. Well that is my story about my English Ford. The only other one that I saw was in a car magazine and it had been made into a dragster and had to be driven from the back seat….

    I put a Mk 3 Zephyr mill and box into a 100E back in the day, 107E diff, similar firewall work, but a bloody nightmare overall. Glad to see you didn't hack into the flat panel on top of the firewall, that adds a lot to the strength. Provided its not rusty, the 100E is quite a stiff shell, especially the 2 door, unlike the very 'flexible' 105E shell.

    I reckon you could do the loom yourself, with a bit of thought and time. Basic Kit car loom should do There are brand new motorcycle looms available for peanuts online, I've often thought about adapting one of those for a carb car. Minus the alternator wiring, all the necessary circuits are there. Be a good side hustle to get into too. Wiring seems to scares everyone else off 🤣

    Hi, I see its a while ago since you made this video, but I hope you could help me with a issue I'm facing right now. Today I tried to install my new downpipe (catless + opf delete) under my MK7 TCR, but I just can't get the sensors before and after the OPF off. I think those are the pressure sensors (the smaller tall ones)? It seems that they are really stuck. I already tried some heat and WD-40, but without any luck. How did you managed to remove these sensors? Any tips or special tools needed? My car is only from 2020, I just can't imagine that they are seized already. All of the other sensors and O2 sensors are no problem, only the pressure sensors.
