Thank god for the forum guides for both the Magna (did my TL VR-X Manual) and also my Legnum (even worse with the rear turbo). Couple special tools needed, mainly a 10mm or 12mm zero offset spanner (I forget which now, been a while), plus the tensioner tool he showed. And for one of them I needed like 1M of extension bars.

I don’t have worlds for how happy I am that you didn’t sell the AU, grandmas au was off the road for about 11 years and I inherited it with a fair front end smash which is why it was de regoed and sat in a shed for all that time. Your videos gave me the confidence as a young car enthusiasts to commit to fixing it myself and doing it properly. I’ve never been happier with a car. Every time I drive that thing I say it is such a win of a car, coming from a daily driven pretty clapped SX territory ghia that I still like to drive. Although the Falcon Forte is about to roll over to 100000 seeing yours just shy of 300000 going strong makes me feel pretty good that she’ll be around for a while, I am more of a stock ford guy myself but I can appreciate spicing up a silver turd, making some good bogan content from it too. There isn’t enough no BS aussie auto content creators around, keep it up mate, your bloody brilliant. Keen to see more of the Fairmont Ghia, and as you where talking after the Magna got painted a possible respray for her as well, both of ours are the same colour but my paint has only really seen a few years of sun and other than the scrapes on the fence post on the plastic bumpers she’s dead straight and looks like a mirror no fade and no bog, done the claybar and turtle wax every 3weeks so hopefully I’ll get my moneys worth out of the paint but I’d like to see how a well painted liquid silver au comes up. As I said, keep up the no bs content, it is a big winner mate.

Really glad you've put so much effort into restoring this! Had a 3.5L manual TH Magna and I miss it - unfortunately I found so much builders bog in the passenger side a pillar from a previous owners accident and I just didn't have the confidence that it was structurally sound enough to survive an accident but that thing had the ralliart headers with a straight through exhaust (2 ¾ inch I think but cannot remember) and that thing managed to get a 14.71 ¼ mile time (in fairness I took out all the seats minus drivers obviously, the exhaust from the cat back, spare wheel, anything that added any weight. With the weight it hit 14.91. These things are a boat but they were an absolute joy to drive especially on a long road trip! I hope you are getting the same joy out of this as every other Magna enthusiast has!!! By the looks of these videos, you are mostly just not the timing belt aspect 🤣

That's a big job for your first timing belt. You did well. My first was when I blew a water pump on a Friday night. Grabbed the pump and belt kit Saturday morning from work, had it all apart that afternoon, and back together Sunday afternoon, so I could get to work Monday morning. I didn't worry about doing the cam seals either. Looks like a right angle impact wrench would be a good investment for getting those cam pulleys off though.
@IGDZILLA21 күн бұрын
I've heard (never done it) you can hold the cam pulley with the old timing belt tightly wrapped around it and clamped down somehow. I've got to do this job too and I've been putting it off. I really understand how you were feeling. Hopefully your miserable experience breaking the pulley has saved me and others from a similar fate. I had to do the starter motor a few weeks ago and that was made more difficult by having a filthy engine from a neglected valve cover gasket leak. But at least I got a brand new Bosch starter from Repco on clearance for $179. That was my first real experience working on a car. Never used a trolley jack before. I found the trolley jack four doors down the street on the roadside whist I was on my way to buy one. Somebody is looking down kindly on me.

Nothing like giving it a birthday freshen-up. You know it is good when you hear boss music. RTV or grease is good for paper gaskets and you can serve without ripping the old one. RTV likes to snug up and wait a while then tighten for a good seal, you can still clean off the RTV leaving a clean look. 21:31, just like any exotic... 35:28 It is set right, and the eccentric pully adjusts for variance/wear in the belt. 38:17 is when you get that little taptaptaptap, of the other people you are with messing with you.

Sean you did your best with the tools you had so good on you for giving it a go. However after seeing your frustration with breaking a part, the water pump bolt didn’t wanna do its job, the amount of crap you have to remove to do the job and not having the right tools its sometimes better to have the pros do it. As you know it’s important to do this particular job and you have to get it right the first time, as this is an interference engine. I’m about to have mine done, I purchased the kit and I’ll remove most of the external parts to allow the mechanic to get onto the more critical components and save a few bucks, my Pajero is the 6G75. I, like you, enjoy being able to say I did it myself but with some jobs its ok to let a mechanic do certain things, he has the training, the right tools like the SST, and he’ll be the one to knock the job over in a few hours while you’re doing the more important things to you, and everything would have been replaced.

Good job (apart from the bits that suck, for obvious reasons). A few pointers: * Buy good quality timing belts/chains, not cheap Chinese belts/chains. If it's an interference engine and the timing belt/chain lets go, you'll be in a world of pain. * Always start bolts by hand before you get onto them with power tools. * When the manual says to torque to spec, but doesn't give the spec, it will probably be the generic torque for the bolt diameter that's usually given toward the front of the manual, where it gives very basic info that people usually ignore. * The belt and seal replacement would be a lot easier with the engine out of the car, but that's a very big job. * The belt V's the pulleys will have what's called "hunting teeth" to prevent uneven wear from the teeth on the pulley always using the same teeth on the belt. The hunting teeth will make sure all pulley teeth mate with all belt teeth to keep the wear even (note that this is hunting teeth between the belt and the pulleys, not the crank pulley and the cam pulleys). I changed the timing belt of my R31 Skyline many years ago. Would I change the timing chains of my VZ Commodore? Too big a job: I'm going to take it to someone who has done probably hundreds of them. I recently replaced the front struts, lower control arms, tension rods and even the tie rods (inners and outers), so I'm not averse to getting into some fairly serious work on the car, but the timing chain isn't worth the bother for me. This is especially when the difference between the cost of a timing and ancillary parts kit is only a few hundred bucks less than getting exactly the same kit supplied and fitted, with an oil and filter change and new coolant as part of the job. I'd have to buy extra tools that I'll never use again specifically for the job, so once all of that's factored in, I wouldn't be saving much by doing it myself. With the broken pulley and the extra tools, I suspect it wouldn't have been a lot different with the Magna (but you also wouldn't have had nearly as interesting a video). Anyway, well done and thanks for the video.

Great video! I am going to have to pull apart my VRX engine bay soon to change a bunch of gaskets and stuff... Any suggestions to help with taking stuff out of the engine bay? I LOVE your car, keep up the good work!
