Hi there well done for getting it going 👏 I used to service one of these for a friend in the 80s. It was a very comfortable car to drive. I noticed when you lifted the distributor cap the centre spring was there but not the carbon Bush that attaches to it? Did you replace the distributor cap or is it still running on the spring? It was a common fault for the carbon Bush to wear away and fall out causing all sorts of problems. Have enjoyed the episode and have subscribed. Prefer older vehicles I have 30 year old van and wife has 26 year old golf. Cheers

Oh man, you'll have to almost manufacture it from scratch. Greetings from Spain!

Greetings from Ireland,I love your video,Thank you for having your video subtitled for us who live in the "Silent World"

Disappointed you didn't go for a LS build but interesting.

Thanks, i have fond memories of these. This is the first car i remember my mother having.....it went from brand new to full on Flintstones in the time i was in primary school, courtesy of the UKs salty roads

2.50. "Flight of the Phoenix" flashback.

If you really want to be special, look for the bolt on 4x4 conversion. Though in 4x2 they can go nearly anywhere.

Stop the music in the back! Really irritating.

Eventually is good enough for a slav on a low budget my friend

I had a 126 as well - amazing, how roomy it is....make sure to grease the front - axle regularly, best : every week...otherwise, the steering becomes stiff and - worst case - blocks...the problem is, that the front - axle layout is more or less the same, as on the Fiat 500; with only one grease - nipple at the pivot....the grease escapes the " easy way " - and the other end would not get any fresh grease....and bolt and bushes resent that. Another problem is the vibration of the little two - cylinder....and they like to throw the bolts of the exhaust - outlet out, and destroy the threads at the same time....they can only be repaired once by using an M 10 - bolt. Very important : the " air - thermostat " to open the flap for cooling the engine ! If it does not work properly, the engine overheats. Bye - bye head - gasket. Having said that, it is still a very nice little car.

The Zastava Yugo is n o t a bad, not to mention " the worst " car - nothing but propaganda by Americans, who are too stupid to know better. It is nice to drive - and this Fiat - engine does not need any proof for its reliability. It is absolutely worth saving !

Oh, I love Trabants....you got a very nice one of the last series; new door - openers, EBZA ( electronic ignition ), new drive shafts and coil springs at the rear axle.... I hope to see it on the road soon ! By the way : make sure the little spring for the accelerator cable is n e w....if it snaps, the engine turns at full revs and you can only stop it with the petrol - tap...The carburettor BVF 28 H 1 - 1 ( which was originally fitted on this model ) - is not the best choice - a good old " HB " carburettor - and she purrs like a cat...GDR did not have plastic bottles. Duroplast is made of cotton wool - and incredibly resistant !

Nice Dyane ! ( type " AYA " ) There were two engines available, Dyane 4 = 435 cc, 21 h.p - and the Dyane 6, like yours, 32 h.p. Although she runs, inspect the chassis - if the steering becomes stiff it means the chassis bends and strains the steering - column. We reinforced the chassis just next to the four bolts of the steering - box - which is as well the front suspension.

Nice Seat - or Fiat - 850....my mate drove them until 2020...make sure the cross - member under the front transverse - leaf - spring is in good order and the fixation of the steering - box....they are always good for bad surprises. Apart from that, engine - parts are no problem ( same for wear - items ). This engine was still used in the first Fiat Pandas - but it turns the other way round, so you cannot use the distributor...

This is n o t a 1,1 l - engine...they have got the radiator at the front end, this is a 850 cc, radiator bolted to the steering - rack. Spare parts can be found very easily. 1.1 - versions are called " GTL " - type R 1128. These " plastic " petrol pumps are no good for nothing. To be on the safe side, you should have cleaned the petrol reservoir, they have got a plug to make this easy ( allen 6 mil ).

My dad had a Renault 6 back in the 1970's, which is very much the same spec as the R4, with the quirky gear change and the big glass specimen bottle as an expansion tank for the coolant.

Ovaj ti je 45ica. Ima puno razlika sa 55ica. Imali smo dve 55ice pa mogu lako da primetim razlike. Chak i Yugo za Americhki nije bio isti kao taj za Yu pazar. Ali tamo se izgubio dok su ameri imali svoje shevrolete kadilake krajslere i josh mnogo vishe. Retko se tamo pojavi u neki auto otpad za neka smeshna cena. Kod nas eto ima ih josh sa neke cene oko 1000 i neshto eura za "dobar" primerak.

Dobar si auto nashao. Josh ne mogu da verujem da si je nashao na otpad. Ko li je uopshte bacio ovaj auto?! Lepa je, pali, vozi. Potrebno joj je sregjivanje da bi bila u top stanje, ali se moze voziti i ovako svaki dan. Jedno pitanje: Dali si mozda chlan Citroen Forum Srbije? Ja jesam. Imam 2cv6 Spachek iz '73 godishte, znam puno o Spacheke i Dijane a na forum se i lepo druzimo i uvek saznajemo neshto novo. Pozdrav. Zanimljuva informacija o Dyane: nastala je kao auto koj sa malo noviji dizajn trebala da parira Renault 4 katrica. Iz danashnog aspekta rekao bih da je Dijana mlagja sestra Spacheka.

Katrica je zanimljiv auto. Nashao si primerak koj se moze srediti. Jedan moj prijatelj je kupio jednu i kaze da ima puno delova za njih i da nisu skupi. Jedino moze biti skupo ako auto trazi mnogo toga da se zameni ili popravi. Oldtajmer koj se moze voziti svaki dan. Planiram i ja da kupim jedan samo shto ja trazim jedan model sa aluminiumska maska i okrugli zmigavci ako mogu takav da nagjem. A lepi su i oni plavi kasniji modeli sa kremasta maska i lajsne. Vozio sam se u jedan. Udobnost je blizu kao na Spachek. A Katrica ima snazniji motor i brzi je od Spacheka.

Thank you. Love this.

Assembled in Slovenia? I had a 1963 R4 which was assembled in Australia. The seats in an R4 are more comfortable than those in most modern cars. You have a good idea to save simple cars with small engines.

Possibly my favorite car of all. It ticks every box: Perfectly roomy for 4, with a decent trunk. Performance is "sufficient". Flexibility and practicality of the hatchback and 4 doors.. Simple reliable engine that can be fixed at home, Great fuel economy. Comfortable seats. Apart from the body roll, great handling and grip. And a superb ride that laughs at potholes and speedbumps. Compare with the Fiat 500, the Mini, the Morris Minor, the Citroen 2CV, the Beetle, the Trabant: They all lack some attribute that is present in the R4. The R4 is the optimum "economy car".

Your English is very good !

Actually the engine and transmission are mounted 'the wrong way'. Distribution chain is near the firewall. Also the eniges you mentioned: The 1289cc engine wasn't standard althouygh the (rare) 954 cc engine was. The 845 base engine was an Billancourt engine, developed after WW2. The later engines are Cléon engines. Developed in the sixties. Liked and subbed!

Ey man! I actualli own a same type of trabi in the Netherlands... Also a 601 universal in the same color as youre's!... Make her great again! And haha its made out of duroplast nothing plastic about that... Its cottonfibre with somesort of hardener... :p Hope to see a New video on the trabi soon and going to follow youre progress! Greets from the netherlands

Happy New Year brother!

Good work, Greetings from Canada.

Svaka čast, sve legenda do legende. Samo naatavi brate, jedva čekam nastavak!! 👌👍🤩

❤

I love the cars you have on your channel! I don't think you would see a SEAT 850 here in Canada. You will get it going, no problem. Cheers, Rob.

🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

Brm brm

😅😅😅 pojačavač sistem bravo

Samo nastavi imaš fantastičnu osnovu👍👍👍

Let me know in comments below, would you like to see more of videos fixing up car or describing car history. I would like to know for next video editing, cause another amazing car is on the corner. Thanks for support ❤

Yugo je zakon super automobil super video samo pohvale i ništa više. ❤❤

Bravo😅😅😅😅

Hello, I have a 1987 Mercedes 190e, which is great fun. I must say, I love the cars that you have on your channel, they are all so interesting! Cheers from Canada, Rob.

😂😂😂😂 genijalno

Renault 4 is truly a masterpiece of French design and engineering! It’s a special car that perfectly captures the charm and brilliance of French craftsmanship.

U R4 nikada nije isao motor od 1.3 litra. 1.1 je najveci po kapacitetu.

Wow

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
