Reliant Rialto Robin. cold start. Man cave mistake.

[@paulbillingham4594]

Bloody brilliant. Ive never laid a spanner on a Rialto or Robin. The engine sounds brilliant. I can see why these were popular choices for Kit Cards and Trikes. Thanks for posting

[@sallywest5634]

Well done Adam sounds nice now. Looking forward to your Christmas special if you get time, if not thanks for keeping us going with all your video's so far, I think dad and I have watched them all now. Here's hoping that you and you Family and of course little Rusty and the other little one have a super and safe Christmas and new year 🐶🎅

[@geoffmiles8743]

Hi I got a rialto . Not got it running yet . But glad to watch your videos .

[@NorfolkMancave]

Thanks for watching.

[@peterkelly9540]

I love your pickup. Wish I could afford it

[@stephenbibby8650]

I bought a Rialto brand new back in 1987. Great little car. What are your plans for this one ? I’m sure there aren’t many examples still running today so I’m sure they are collector’s items among enthusiasts.

[@clearprop]

Just noticed another mistake - I think, but I'm only just learning! At 11:37 on your LAST video (not this one), you identified number one opposite the one you say is number one in this video. The end result is the same - you've flipped the leads for 2 and 3. Hope that makes sense - at least it proves I was paying attention! Learning a lot from you so keep 'em coming, sir! 👍

[@NorfolkMancave]

Do ya know I think you are correct. very strange.. but we got there in the end and she's running really well now.

[@clearprop]

@@NorfolkMancave Glad to hear it. Really enjoyed these two - something a bit different. Hope you have a great Christmas - here's to when 'the games begin' in 2022. 👍

[@topbloke60]

Great outcome...the engine sounds so much better although I honestly have to say I hadn't noticed you'd got the leads mixed up....ah well no harm done lol. All the best to you too

[@NorfolkMancave]

yes buddy. she really do sound good now. sweet as a watch.

[@MadHuegetts]

always wanted to drive/own one also love the kitten. im also from Norfolk

[@normanstephens5391]

I knew there was something wrong but couldn't put my finger on it at the time. Well done to the person who did. 👍👍

[@NorfolkMancave]

Well we got there in the end Norman. she's running really well now thankfully. Thanks for watching. 🙂

[@robames1293]

great video. When you pull the choke out, can you twist the knob to lock it in position? In the late 1960s I used a clothes peg for ages on my '52 Ford Prefect (while using crank handle, due to lack of funds for a new battery) until I found out. Best wishes from Australia.

[@TheTutorialguy_28]

Well I did not notice the fireing order was incorrect as I'm not too familiar with reliant engines great to hear it running better now and have a very good Christmas and stay safe 👍see you in the Christmas special

[@NorfolkMancave]

Well she all come good in the end. running so well now. I'm quite amazed really. But I must say I do have a big soft spot for this little beast. so much fun to drive.

[@bushratbeachbum]

Hahahaha, love it!! Do you still have it?!

[@JeffMiles-j8t]

Hi did you sell the pig pickup ?

[@andybrace4983]

Bloody good show

[@patricksmith9610]

Awesome video!

[@NorfolkMancave]

Well thank you sir. Thanks for watching.

[@Popeyes66]

We all make mistakes. Merry Christmas NCM

[@NorfolkMancave]

same to you good folk. we got there in the end. 😃

[@chrislewis4830]

WOW a yellow top you do know there a rare high compression engine dont you? and the axle if original is built especially for that engine for the higher turque output. i did have one once it wheel spined in second. There were only so many built. It was reliants attempt at a higher speed engine

[@NorfolkMancave]

I didn't know about anout the axel. But I did read somewhere years ago about the yellow top engine. I must admit it goes like stink for what it is. My ex Mrs had a C5 2.0HDI. Followed me for 25 miles once and said when I pulled away she could not keep with me upto 60. Lol.. I did have her "off the speedo" one. Showing probably 95 MPH. Lol..

[@TheNorfolkWorkshop]

Lovely job their man cave how does a mamod steam engine vid as a Christmas special sound good for me and the Ferguson video is the most popular on your channel so people might like that as a Christmas special at least I would

[@NorfolkMancave]

are you going to do that on your channel Dalton? would make for a good watch.

[@TheNorfolkWorkshop]

@@NorfolkMancave yes uploading tomorrow morning about 9am and look on the description please

[@PaulHigginbothamSr]

A three wheeled pickup. My word, how unstable would his be without a 1/2 ton of concrete in the back. She could haul 1/4 yard of stone for the driveway.

[@PaulHigginbothamSr]

I am waiting patiently to see the Robin Reliant on M10 @ 80mph without all that trash in the rear cubby.

[@NorfolkMancave]

it will come soon good man. 👍

[@PaulHigginbothamSr]

With it full with driveway stone. If she turned 80 it would be a teeth clincher.

[@charnwoodclassiccars2549]

Is she for sale

[@NorfolkMancave]

No not at the Mo mate. I could have sold it 100 times over.

[@eskimojulie]

If i am honest i was surprised that the distributor runs anti clockwise ! so no i had not realised your mistake lol

[@NorfolkMancave]

I was also surprised. I think that's why I put them on clockwise. am so used to dizzys running clockwise. bit hey, got there in the end. Thanks for watching.

[@kevinsheardown1036]

Very good I pall

[@NorfolkMancave]

Thanks very much Sir. she runs a treat now.

[@moondogdieselworks3883]

We’ve all done it, it happens. Lol
