Best car show ever. Because of your programme I've just bought a 1988 Lotus Esprit that might otherwise have ended up on the scrap yard. Nothing works but what a car :) Keep safe!

[@frankpineda1832]

I owned 3 lotus a few years back, esprit, elite and eklat (in the US) all 1977, I still miss them to this day, good video 👏👏👏👏👏

Super first class education channel ! Learn so much from you thanks you

[@themessenger5868]

Oh...I was just getting comfy and...stop ! Doh ! More please...

[@alamocannon3791]

And we need the rest of the rebuild....

[@mazdaman1286]

A video of the full strip and rebuild would be an episode of car sos in itself

[@aaronharris5275]

A true engine professor! Love listening to the way Fuzz describes things. I did this kind of work on my T4 which was greatly helped by the series featuring the red transporter camper.

[@welditmick]

If i remember correctly, the liners should protrude above the block face a few thou so when the head is tightened down it all sits flush and seals the liners.

[@Marie579]

Engine oil at night always smells better than napalm in the morning I guess LOL

[@brunocharles3179]

This is very pleasant to listen to you because you speak very clear,and I mostly can follow what you describe when working on your engine. France Normandy

You are the best... Best Regards from Macedonia 🇲🇰🇲🇰

[@jimdemetri8168]

Now this a car show . Make it at least 1hr long

[@wanderer5581]

I managed to do a top end rebuild getting the head off in situ after the belt skipped and bent some valves, fortunately no piston damage, but those sodium filled valves were expensive!!

[@MrAtheHun]

Ahhh Fuzz, the good part of the show.

[@dannywheeler]

I would pay for content like this

[@mattgoddard7708]

Brilliant. More like this please!

[@stumac869]

Looks more like somebody hasn't been changing the coolant as required and/or used rad weld both of which would result in gunk forming in the water jacket (block and head).

[@keithfletcher6123]

Now THAT is proper shedworx .... Holy crap, and he's just dead pan .... Amazing .... How do I support and invest ??

[@brunocharles3179]

Hello fuzz from France Normandy

[@alamocannon3791]

At last,,,,,,,,,,,,More than 4 mins ......Just what we need, More detail to overhauls....

[@gulfstream7235]

No Tim...bliss

[@mariamadiallo1764]

Tim is a businessman really.

[@frogandspanner]

Steel liners? Are you sure - or are they cast iron?

[@markvanderborght7559]

I know it’s a tv show, but try to move waterpump before risking interference with valves due to camshaft not turning due to belt snipped! Unless you checked that earlier…. Tv after all…

[@davefarmery8180]

Different belt

[@oscarondero7249]

How much can car sos charge me to restore mazda rustler 1987. I'm oscar

[@ferraridinoman]

To be honest a crap undeveloped engine!. Remember them being a nightmare in the Jensen Healey!

[@1701_FyldeFlyer]

More of this please and less of the awfully dim Tim. I stopped watching WD when brewer forced Edd out and Car SOS needs more of Fuzz's work not Tim.

[@DoubleOSeven007]

Fact Check. Mike did not force Ed out. Stop spreading nasty rumours.
