Cold start Opel Rekord 1965 6V

[@josvandencamp8441]

Spark plugs might have become wet caused by the prolonged starting.

[@janclaar2910]

Full choke and no pumping on the pedal.

[@frenchman121]

And no pumping before start.

[@tourri]

If the sparks are wet, you have to put down the pedal to fully open the throttle

[@renehaagsma6107]

Erg mooie auto. Zo hoort een klasieker eruit te zien. Prachtig geluid ook. Maar volgens mij had je teveel op het gaspedaal "gepompt" dat ie was verzopen(?) En te lang starten is voor de startmotor niet super. Maar, GEWELDIGE OPEL. Mèt 6 volt. Love it..

The cold makes any old car start up hard. That's why u get a Die Hard battery

[@olivervaupunkt433]

Hi. Too much pumping fuel with the pedal will cause wet sparkplugs. 🤷‍♂️ Dignition on, Choke fully pulled and only 3 times pump. And give the starter after 10 seconds starting enough time to recover. Like a minute. And after the machine is running you should drive directly. Otherwise the car will use much more fuel during standing, until the engine gets warm. A bit fuel runs also down the cylinderwalls into the oil bath. Even new cars have this always. The fuel makes the motoroil thin. Its like a thinner and oil viscosity can be reduced. I recommend you to always drive directly. The other question is: why to drive an oldtimer in such a bad wet weather. I would never use it during winter and i would park it in a garage during these cold and wet times. My oldtimers see only sunshine and dry weather. Mostly i m driving my newer car through the everyday. Greetings Oliver

[@thoughtlessasmr4977]

Hi. I drive my cars no matter what weather it ism and they have survived so far, they can make it a bit longer. Cant be driven direct because when its cold the engine needs to heat up so the carb can supply fuel. But yes the starter needs longer breaks, but could not for the sake of the video👍

[@Sternvogel007]

@@thoughtlessasmr4977 I love it. This is finally a classic car that still serves as an everyday car. My car is also over 30 years old and is still driven regularly every day of the year. What's more, the car has only ever been parked outside in all weathers during this long period, it has never seen the inside of a garage. An everyday car has a much more natural flair than the showpiece classic cars, which have to look like new cars and usually just stand around pointlessly.

La frizione va sempre tenuta premuta a fondo perché stacca il motore dal cambio facilitandone la rotazione (il motorino d’avviamento non deve far ruotare anche il cambio). Quando il motore si accende non bisogna lasciarlo spegnere finché non raggiunge la temperatura normale di esercizio perché se si spegne prima non sarà freddissimo ne in temperatura rendendo ancora più difficile modularne il comando arricchitore. Se si è molto giovani certe cose non si sanno, meglio informarsi prima… 🙂

Das kenn' ich. Mein erstes Auto war ein Rekord A, aber noch mit Dreigang-Lenkradschaltung. War im Winter immer eine Prozedur das Auto zu starten. Niemals zu früh das Getriebe an den Motor zu kuppeln.

@thoughtlessasmr4977 Would love to see videos of any of your cars that take quite a lot of cranking to get started. Especially any that have a manual choke.

[@floeki-jekker]

i have driven ford taunus 12m 1963 on 6v for 20 years. if it goes out, do not start endlessly, just wait 5 minutes that does wonders. important is half throttle, and do not pump and no choke.

[@nobbyarmbruster]

Remove the air filter cover and spray some brake cleaner into the carburetor before starting. No pumping with the pedal, choke pulled. Brake cleaner is more ignitable than gasoline in cold temperatures.

[@alexkleinhuis2324]

i admire the battery

[@hannuvalila2146]

Warum das pumpen den gantzen zeit??

[@robinprice4877]

Thanks for your reply. What's the longest it's taken to start on a freezing cold morning? Do you ever try starting it without any choke? What's it like pulling up a really steep hill with a cold engine?

[@thoughtlessasmr4977]

15 min max, need to let the starter cool down. I do always need the choke. When the engine is cold it runs bad, needs a lot of fuel and the carb cant handle it until its up to temp, so i could not run up a hill until its up to temp. (Also my carb probably need a good clean)

[@vincecarnevale4406]

You know it's cold when the snow crunches under your feet!

[@robinprice4877]

How long does it usually take to start on freezing cold mornings? Does it take longer when it hasn't been used for several days? How much choke does it need usually?

[@thoughtlessasmr4977]

​@@robinprice4877 When the oil is cold it takes more power to turn around, 6v turns pretty slow. So when it is -10 it takes about 5-10 min to make it start. Often need choke until it starts and goes up in temp. In this video it was hard.

[@laszlototh6235]

Szia! Mekkora Ah-s akku van benbe? Jól bírja!

[@patrickcannell2258]

Why German cars remained 6V for so long beats me! By early 50s, British and American cars were 12 V.

[@classic_opel]

It sounds like heavy misfiring, maybe timing , wires or spark plug problems ? Probably that is why it is starting so slow.

[@thoughtlessasmr4977]

Its running quite okey i think the video makes it sound worse. But i do think it has gotten worse since summer. , it needs to warm up before it gets power to drive. drove it a lot in the summer no problem, before that it sat outside probably for years. I will do a Quick tune up for next season, plugs oil filter carbclean and maybe watch over the timing (for the first time) and hope it runs a better. But hevy missfiring i would not say really.

[@kevinsharp-kn7rm]

[@johnheuts9230]

But only choke and no pumping to start. That it starts later is because the fuel disappeared, so waiting 5 minutes would have helped a lot.
