Finishing the mci mc5 Saudi

I envy these people so much ,traveling the country in a bus home on wheels. Such freedom.

[@flick22601]

With all the hard work the young lady put into that bus, she deserved the chance to drive it.

Need a clamp down for the laptop now that the brakes work! As everyone said, getting the daughter involved may be the start to great things. Lastly thanks to the family and Scott/Tyler for bringing this story to us. Bus was seriously sick and getting worse.

Another good video! Thank you. Watching from Los Angeles, CA Steve Miller.

[@danielswords3969]

Beautiful moths, I appreciate the added nature content, thanks!

[@hotpuppy1]

Having everyone help out with the repairs makes them invested in it more so it is unlikely that maint. will be ignored in the future. GOOD JOB!

[@siaripop7]

That young lady's work ethic is impressive, besides the fact she knows how to turn a wrench too! Just a thought Scott, when your shop is up you could designate one area for showing samples of the parts in the Detroit Diesels like the liners you showed in this video, a BGM Museum of sorts!

[@paulgrae6120]

[@marty0715yt]

Am I mistaken or did that engine start several times with one revolution of the crankshaft? Amazing!!

[@dth2brny121]

One attribute that 2-stroke Detroits are also known for. First crank of the start motor and the engine gets right at it immediately. Amazing indeed

[@kurtisblow3650]

Job well done and a very satisfying road test. Beautiful coach for a beautiful family. I wish you all much enjoyment.

Those repairs look like a real team effort. A power surge took out the blower motor in my old furnace. My neighbor lost the compressor in his new Carrier condensing unit. I installed a whole house surge protector to help protect the electronics in the house.

I remember reading about these busses when I worked as a mechanic for a Brooklyn bus company. When is one of the bus mags Hausman I beleive Leased these 35' busses with roof heat shields to a company in Saudi Arabia and after the lease was up they shipped them back to the US and listed them for sale in the magazine.

Scott, Considering it wouldn’t climb the hill presuming the engine is electronic did you check to verify it was 100 % throttle? Just thinking out loud. Food for thought

[@Detroitdiesel285]

All that work rolling bearings. Talk of low oil pressure and capacity, never said anything on how these fixes raised oil pressure or not. I like the videos.. but they leave some important things out.

g’day everyone, Kevin here from Australia. Great video a bit of everything and what an awesome bus to work on . Did you do an inside tour of this and I’ve just missed it. But a question I’ve been meaning to ask you Scott . How is it working the long hours with Tyler I remember way back working with my dad and I cherish the memories. Anyhoo again great video you guys stay safe and healthy. ✌️. Peace.

[@briandavis9975]

Scott I'm not sure if you or someone answered my question on your video before this one but why the yellow color on the engine was there some particular reason? Mine is yellow and have always wondered why. Thanks and love your work you and Tyler do and letting the owners get hands on experience and the knowledge working with you. Thanks again for sharing.

Remove Engine. Fully Rebuild Engine. Upgrade Antiquated Cooling System. Add Turbo if one is not currently in service.

[@davidowen888]

Curious on how much it all cost ?

[@davidvivian596]

Hi Scott - this is a very neat looking bus but why is it called a 'Saudi'? Also, do you think the sand-coloured paint on the engine is because it has been remanufactured or simply because someone got happy with spare paint. (Here in the UK a remanufactured/reconditioned engine is sometimes repainted in a different colour to distinguish it from the original).

[@BusGreaseMonkey]

It was made special for use in saudi desert by mci. Extra double layer vented roof and other special features like rear doors for women.
