Bentleys and Rolls Royces of that era. leaked fluid even when brand new. I was at the Rolls/Bentley dealer, getting my Sterling 825S serviced, and noticed a technician building Lucite trays. I asked him what they were for, and he said "catching all the leaks!" Since this dealer also sold pre-owned vehicles that were often in the showroom, I asked "Oh, for the used cars?", and he said, "No, the new ones."

Hi, I had exactly this misfire with my Turbo R. Turned out to be the mechanical fuel injection pump needed a tweak, it was done by ear using the centre adjustment screw by a 65-70 year old Bentley tech at the local dealer who did his apprenticeship on these engines, also swapped the plugs for copper core and said don’t fit anything else! Been perfect since. Hope this helps?? Keep up the content. Love the channel. Rob from the U.K. if not sell me the Bentley!
@tyzorg
@tyzorg 4 жыл бұрын
Pardon my ignorance but if the mechanical fuel injection pump needed adjustment and the misfire only shows up past 2k.. does that indicate a lean (or perhaps rich I guess?) condition which caused the misfire, NOT an electrical pulse / ignition issue?
@lakesidesecurity3845
@lakesidesecurity3845 4 жыл бұрын
Bruh239 I’m not an expert on the system, but I’ve worked on a few Over the years, they are very sensitive to adjustment of the automated enrichment, so effectively we are speculating that an over rich or over lean is causing the misfire as the engine changes speed. This can also be caused by wear to the pump over the years. A slight enrichment hides the lower pressure now produced through wear. The Merc’s used to suffer exactly the same issues using the same system.

mis-fire on Bentley: Sometimes the ignition "module" develops a bad ground connection. irc it appears to be well grounded mounted on distributor, but in fact isn't. run a grounded wire to the ignition module's gnd connection. I have fixed RR's with no spark this way and I know they sell a kit in th uk to fix this.

Hey Hoovie! Regarding that Mercedes 500e. That noise sounds very similar to the noise my 2005 w203 made after getting brand new engine and transmission mounts. The cause was the new Corteco mount for the trans was not sitting properly and torqued its self crooked causing a whirling noise and premature trans mount failure. I thought the worst however putting a new factory Mercedes trans mount which was about $65 solved the whirling noise for me. Might want to ask your shop just to swap out the mount.

Hoovie, my dad threw some insights in for you: It could be a number of things, most likely ignition related. Coils are new, but what about spark plugs and high tension leads? If original they’re probably worn out. Also no discussion of distributor cap/rotor which can also cause misfires on this vintage car. He is right though, these cars cost a lot to maintain. He’s on to the mineral oil issue - if you fill reservoirs when the rear end is raised, oil will overflow to the ground as the rear settles from not being driven. Happens to my car too. And of course, all British cars leak something!

In Citroen you can change position of the suspension (dont know if its a thing there) and when there is to much LHM (thats the name of this mineral oil in Citroen) and you lower the suspension it can overflow from reservoir!

The mineral oil leak is from the two overflow tubes ( you are correct about it settling when it sits). The reservoirs are overfilled. I have the ignition test procedures if you’re interested. I can email the test plan from the factory manuals. It’s worth checking the small timing belt in the distributor. They start to fail over time and will occasionally jump a tooth. Just a thought.

Good point: when the cost of repairs greatly exceeds the value of the car-what is the point. In the USA, once you have an accident (and repairs >75% of the value), the insurance company will scrap the car-then you have a choice - fix it (and have the value reduced by the insurance carrier,m or sell it for parts. There is no way to recover from such a loss. Which is why these cars end up in junkyards.

Tyler, I have a suggestion on the Bentley. With the engine at idle, go around the CIS-E fuel head(it's the silver thing with all the fuel lines coming out of it, the Wizard will know), and, one-at-a-time, loosen them about 1 turn. a 12mm open-end or flare nut wrench will do it, and let out some fuel. You'll likely find the gas that will escape to be dirty & discolored. Let this crummy gas & dirt out of all the holes, 1 at a time, and go around 2 or 3 times if a lot comes out. There may be a bit of water there as well. Tap on the lines right at the fitting with the wrench. Only do 1 line at a time, then tighten, and go on to the next. The CIS-system was common on Mercedes cars from 76 to 91. We had trouble with them all, often from lack of service, or poor gas. Use only premium fuel, and add 2 bottles of Chevron Techron, available at most of the chain auto parts stores, to a full tank of gas. It might be helpful to pull the fuel injectors, run some mineral spirits through them, and replace the seals. As you have learned, English cars don't take well to being stored. If the suspension is losing its pressure, you're leaving it alone too long, and you will pay for that.

That whirring noise coming from the transmission on the 500e sounds like it could be the torque converter. Might be wrong though, somebody else will correct me. If the torque converter IS the issue, it might not be locking up correctly, which can lead to that sound you are hearing. It's also possible that it's slightly off balance, but I kind of doubt that.

My E350 was making a similar noise and it turned out to be a bushing in the pump that the input shaft goes thru. Dropped the trans, removed the pump, replaced the bushing. On the inside of the bushing, you could see it was wearing unevenly. It's been quiet since tho.

I have a Mercedes 560sel with hydraulic rear suspension. When the oil raises the car and sets the ride height, it should NOT backflow back into the reservoir when the car sits but after a few months and being 30 years old, its forgivable. Clean fluid and filter (if the Bentley has one) and load the trunk and have 4 people in it, drive it hard and it should resettle the leveling valves and flush any junk causing backflow. Try it. I rebuilt my whole sls system and that was the final cure for overflowing reservoirs and sagging rear ends

For the Bentley, look at alternator output. I had a Range Rover Classic that had a similar problem. Chased ignition and fuel system components. It would only do it when cruising on the highway and under light throttle. I was able to duplicate the problem in my driveway using a VAT40. Low voltage output from the alternator while cruising caused the fuel injection and ignition systems to cut out. Threw a new alternator in and all my symptoms disappeared. Hope this helps.

I know you’re planning to sell the Bentley, but if the pressure from the rear suspension is backfeeding to the reservoir while the car remains dormant, you could install residual pressure valves in the lines. They’re one way valves which don’t allow the fluid to back feed. They’re relatively inexpensive (a few dollars each), go right in-line on brake line with flare fittings, and are pretty easy to find, from vendors such as Speedway Motors. I’ve used them on numerous hot rod builds and they work great. Anyway, stay healthy and safe Tyler, and thank you for all the great video content over the years...looking forward to more in the future!

Over 12 years ago, when I was selling my 2nd 745i (I was a big fan of this new BMW design of E65), I had a plan to buy 760i as a second car. Fortunately, I was eager to share this great plan with my service expert in local BMW service center (not the authorized one, but the one I was using for quite some time) and they told me to not even thing about it. High pressure fuel pumps, issues with cooling and engine overheating, even engine cracks were common with this model. I'm really glad I did listen :D
