I Destroyed My Engine!

Time for the 79 to get a new Engine! Rocket Rod and Greg get to work on undoing all the hard work they did last year and swapping it over to a new engine.
The 79 is one step closer to doing what she loves... 4WD Tracks!!

[@rollyb5061]

best of luck Craig and a job well done for the content, yes Rod do a pull down of the old motor

[@midlandt4249]

We used to have a hole drilled in the end of our fork tines with a temporary tow ball , great for shifting trailers and a good stop for stopping the lifting sling slipping off.

[@Lets-go-somewhere-mick]

It’s good how you show a little of the tedious stuff, the time lapses of the less interesting stuff we’ve seen before. Always enjoy seeing you communicate with the guys, clearly a lot of mutual respect in the workshop.

[@wazza8396]

All the best with your new career Craig

[@GrandadBaz]

[@WholesaleAutomatics]

[@tubbytub2990]

Hi Rocket, should have a old engine giveaway? The old motor from the 79 to the best comment? Would turn it into a coffee table with pictures of your Toyota

[@stuobrien3132]

[@WholesaleAutomatics]

Thanks David

[@tonycook2347]

Thanks for the vid guys. Would love to see a tear-down vid of the old engine plus some more detail on the new motor. time to pull in and out, cost, delivery time frames, things to look out for ie: pics of injectors etc. Can see myself going through the same process at some stage. thanks again for the vids.

[@WoodlandsArchive]

Of course I want to see what whent wrong with the old engine! Watching you blokes tear it apart, ah sunday arvo with a cold one. :)

[@agentcrm]

Absolutely pull the old engine apart. Please don't just scrap the engine, it's going to be worth rebuilding for such a minor issue. Farwell Craig, hope you have a great time at what every you're doing next.

[@WholesaleAutomatics]

Thanks agentcrm

[@lindsaybawden6586]

God luck Craig and all the best for your future endevours. and would love to see a "what went wrong" on the engine Great content as usual

[@rododonnell9783]

Defo need to see the old engine stripped down, and good luck Craig

[@WholesaleAutomatics]

Thanks Rod

[@BrettLevin]

Great job guys , Craig it was a absolute pleasure watching your vids and best wishes on your journey

[@WholesaleAutomatics]

Thanks Brett

[@overlandready]

always good for a "what went wrong" eppisode, I have to do that on a BMW motor in a few days too... that'll pay for my auto conversion... 🙂

[@bomesosikore2752]

Thank you

[@shanevonharten3100]

Definitely need to see inside the engine.

[@jo_clarke1960]

Great work, looked a snug fit to say the least. Tear down vid would be great. With the work that's been done in total, don't think she'll be seeing the tracks again 😁

[@martinlang9615]

Very keen to know what went wrong with the old one. Question: what source did you use for all the torque specs. I’m interested in knowing an accurate source as any misprint/mis transfer of info to digital could spell disaster? Nice job guys.

[@harryworth8527]

Yes please, as a 79 series dual cab owner I'm very interested to know what went wrong and perhaps if you could indicate how things came about.

[@bedmaker]

Definately would love to see a tear down video of what went wrong. It'll be interesting!

[@iandibley8032]

Arrh that's how it goes , when I saw the flogging the 79 on that Kimberlies trip I was concerned probably would have popped the heads off. No matter great content she will be better than ever. The location of the starter motor on the v8 is ridiculous. Enjoyed the content yeah definitely a what went wrong with old engine ,probably won't sleep hoping my LC V8 doesn't have similar issues 😂

[@brianroberts3575]

As usual, another great video, would love to see engine rip down! All the best Craig on your new adventures😊

[@WholesaleAutomatics]

Thanks Brian

[@patrickscodellaro2047]

It'll be interesting to see what happened to the original engine.

[@christurner68]

Yes, what went wrong?

[@craigtomkinson2837]

Lovely Ep Guys.

[@jameswebb3000]

All the best man

[@jake-coombs]

Please do a what went wrong on the old engine

[@theacreelife]

Another great video guys! I really like your style and am happy to finally see another video on the 79. Like most Comments here in keen to see a “what went wrong” on the old motor. More importantly, I can’t wait to see this thing back on the road. Have you missed it Rod?

[@blacksheep6888]

I would have thought you could have left the wiring on the engine and simply disconnected it from the computer and fed the harness through the fire wall, used this method Toyota Celia and others, mabey you can't on that model 4x4. Great job fellows.

[@gregbayliss4737]

😂 that wasn’t an option with the upgrades and modifications Rod has done to his 79 it would have taken longer

[@mmmmdeliciousbacon]

Really looking forward to a pull down of the old engine. And good luck Craig, saw you in so many videos including that one of when half a tree fell on your 4wd when camping and almost killed you and your daughter 😮. Hope to see you Craig on another channel 😊

[@WholesaleAutomatics]

Thanks B

[@dougnelson9433]

Be good to see what happened to the old engine

[@spoofking91]

Why didn’t ya just pull the cab off the chassis Rocket Rod hahah? Or maybe it wasn’t possible with the big canopy?

[@charlesemerson6763]

Would love to know what went wrong. Bye Craig we'll miss you.

[@WholesaleAutomatics]

Thanks Charles

[@DieselAddiction]

Should have done a turbo upgrade while you’re at it.

[@peterjewell9436]

Good vidoe Rod do a strip down i suspect it it got dusted or did a piston cant wait to see what went wrong

Craig, hope it all works out with your future endeavours.

engine strip down request👍. thanks for the content

[@55Agro]

Dropping the car to the floor is ok with a hoist. Had enough hassle with my old 1HZ in the 80 to never tackle the V8!

[@pauljbusby]

Scavange Oil Pump. Can be diagnosed and repaired without taking out the Engine. Good thing you blokes only do Transmissions

[@gregbayliss4737]

Quite right we thought about that but the engine was totally dusted so far down on compression to do a rebuild in the workshop wasn’t viable. That’s why we decided to just get a crate motor reload.

[@pauljbusby]

Are you ever going to head out with 4WD 24-7 guy’s again Rocket??

[@bogged2theeyeballs695]

Bloody easy with a forklift. Wish I had one. Definitely interested to see what went wrong with the old engine. Also, where did you source your new engine ? Good luck Craig. Only here once . Follow your dreams mate. 👍

[@WholesaleAutomatics]

The new long motor was sourced from Croydon Toyota here in Victoria but we had to wait a few months for it to become available.

[@bogged2theeyeballs695]

@@WholesaleAutomatics Wow. A brand spanker, not a full reco engine. That would have come with an eye-watering price tag. Thanks for the reply.

[@MrNeroDiablo]

@@bogged2theeyeballs695 They are cheaper to buy than recon, not sure if it's the amount of machine time the V8 consumes as well as the diesel engine parts. How much that motor has cost Toyota in lost sales may never be known.
