Here is the second installment of our somewhat foolish Ferrari 308GT4 project. We are on our way to getting its wonderful (but potentially very expensive) V8 engine fired into life and this first job of getting the fuel system to work is very important. The next episode is likely to be the office building build, let me know of this side of our workshop activity is as interesting as the car projects... Thanks for watching!!

Hi Edd and crew,, I had one of these GT4’s which I rebuilt mechanically so here are a few pointers from watching this episode, Regarding the fuel system, inside that canister which is actually the fuel filter holder is a fuel filter, I did see you blow through it but it would probably be a good idea to open it up and replace that filter, There’s also another fine gauze filter behind that nipple which was connected to the fuel tank, seeing that you were able to pump fuel around and into that bottle chances are it’s not blocked but it wouldn’t hurt to remove, check and clean if needed being you are this far into it.. Also as mentioned, there is a fuel filler hose which connects the fuel filler pipe to the top of the tank,, that hose often gets over looked as it’s hidden but after 50 years, it will most likely be perished and has been a source of engine fires when people have refuelled at the gas station.. The reason the rear spark plugs had more corrosion than the front is that when it rains, the water drops right down on that rear bank and water pools up on to the spark plugs, even they are protected somewhat by rubber spark plug well boots.. On my car I fabricated a small gutter/channel that sat under the firewall that caught any rainwater and drained it to the sides of the car.. Great show which is bringing back a whole lot of memories,, I’l certainly be watching it until the end
@georgebettiol8338Күн бұрын
Edd stated that he would replace the filter once the 'cleansing fuel' has been inserted, circulated and removed - ie. to prevent the unnesssary contamination of a new filter. Agree with the requirement to replace the hose near the filler neck as it's also likely to be perished.

From what's been found so far it looks to me like the car has been run on a shoestring budget with minimal maintenance for the latter part of it's working life and just parked up when it became too troublesome. At least cars of this era are purely mechanical with NO fancy electronics and the nightmare that can come with troubleshooting them. This vid just shows why the temptation to pour in some fresh fuel and try for a start should be avoided at all costs!👍 Slow, steady and methodical gets the job done. Great!😀

Nice to see Ed back. I bumped into him at a conference in Bournemouth, hes a really nice guy. I dont have Ed's patience and would have left the balance pipe in position to remove the drain plug. Sprayed the plug with Kroill and heated it with induction heater, to be belts and braces you could run a nitrogen purge gas through the tanks. I'm looking forward to the next video. The tanks are aluminium, which explains the lack of internal corrosion 😊

@timgosling618923 сағат бұрын
The 308 is renowned for choke problems because the choke control doesn’t get used; it’s unnecessary to start the car. You need just a few pumps on the accelerator to start it even in really cold weather. If warm just slowly open the throttles and turn the key. For preventative maintenance it’s a good idea to check the tanks for micro perforation where they rest on their insulating pads; it’s a known problem area for corrosion. Also, while the air box is off check the coolant pipe running down the centre of the V. It gets baked and can split.

For fiddly jobs like cleaning that banjo fitting I've found that a gun-barrel cleaning product called "Ultraclean" made by a company called Napier of London is really good. It's basically a woven patch material that's rough on one side for scrubbing and smooth on the other for polishing. Cut a bit off the roll, clamp one end in a split pin and wrap it 'round to the desired diameter. You can also use little bits in a loop of plastic covered wire as a "pull through" on bendy metal fuel and oil pipes. I learnt about this after spending an afternoon trying to fish out the lump of cotton wool that had fallen off the end of the plastic in a really annoying place. A set of phosphor-bronze gun-cleaning brushes is also a useful thing to have in the workshop too. You can get them from about 4.5mm up to 20mm and they're really good for cleaning out gummed up threads in engine blocks.

Greatest respect for Ed China and his marvelous talent putting vehicles back on the road. I am surprised that they didn’t go for an engine out service straight away, give the unknown condition of the engine. An engine out service would give them the most access to the engine internals, the valvetrain,etc, and do a compression test, and ascertain how much wear there is in the engine. I recall on a wheeler dealer episode, they did an engine out service on a vintage Lamborghini, so it surprises me they didn’t go that route here. Apparently the new owner doesn’t have the budget for a restoration of this vehicle. Shame!

Welcome back boys and a Happy New Year to you both. I'm liking witnessing the kidney flush of this potential monster, amongst other routine ops. Also looking forward to hearing her wail...but not too soon as I'm learning lots as we head towards that moment...with this and other episodes in this series. Great stuff, keep up the good work! Also it is strange to see such good bodywork coupled with obviously somewhat neglected serviceable parts - cost implications here, me finx!

Inheritance machining calls the "unplanned" extra work as side quests. So good job completing our sidequests.

Classic stuff Ed. I'm sick of seeing sensors and emissions 'stuff' on YT. This is vintage excellence from you, John and The Ferrari !. Thanks. Ace video watching is back again !!!!!!
