Couple of things... 1. Thanks for not blasting some obnoxious music on the video. 👍🏻 2. Thanks for taking the time to get the lighting, camera angles, and focus right.👍🏻 3. Thank you for not stumbling and mumbling through fifteen minutes of pointless monologue. 👍🏻 Superb video. Skills wise you are a ninja. Subbed.

I'm restoring a 1986 2 door 325i. I paid $500 for it from a friend whose uncle was the original owner. It only has 120,000 miles on it with hardly any body damage. I found that the rack and pinion of a new BMW Z3 roadster fits my BMW perfectly and at the same cost of an E30 rack and pinion. I love your channel.

Great work! If I could offer one tip - when soldering those types of connections, consider using a bit of extra flux, and dwell just a half-second longer on the joint. A couple of those were bordering on being cold solder joints which can fail in time.

Sure, people do remanufacture alternators and other auto parts, but often they don't work or look as good as the original unit. That is why some car restorers will go to great lengths to get the smallest details correct. For example, I often had to install cheaply rebuilt power steering pumps and racks that looked awful. Someone would just pray and spray flat black paint, and by the time the part arrived, some of that paint was already peeling off.

They dont get thrown away, they always get refurbished or recycled since they are made up of aluminium, copper,steel, etc. There's a core charge on alternators and starters. Return the old part and get your core charge money back, and the parts store will send it to a manufacturer for restoration to be resold again.

Great video as always, but you need to clean the tip of the soldering iron and then tin it with fresh solder, so the tip is shiny, which will help when soldering, also with large parts like this, use some flux on the item being soldered, let it heat up and then apply the solder, the solder should flow easily, on to the part and will make for a much better joint.

Agreed, flux is your friend. Some of those look like cold solder joints, which is prone to cracking under vibration. I would recommend getting a solder station with an iron amd heat gun. They are cheap, but they work well. Solder your joints, use the heat gun on heat shrink tubing. I've had my ebay 898d+ for about 5 years, and just recently the iron is in need of replacement. Keep in mind, I live in a all weather climate, and its in my barn/workshop.... Good work though, most would rather just buy a refurbished one.

Nice restoration! I repair alot of this Bosch alternator , share some tips with you when next time you wanna disassemble them, cut off the over thread screw the 4 screw that hold front and back cover (mostly the over length screw will bend so will very hard to unscrew it),after 4 screw and regulator removed just use hammer slighly knock the front case it will easily get out because the rear bearing has a plastic cover holding it so is very easy (keep the stator stick on back case else 3 stator wire will get rid off like your video), remove pulley and fan than use jaw puller to remove rotor, replacing the brush you can just grind off on back side of the regular place the brush wire has clamp original than the brush will drop off and there will have a hole you may replace the brush and solder it. Hope it helps you on your next disassemble~

Came back to watch this a second time, as it’s so dope. Quick soldering tip: The reason your solder wasn’t flowing great is that your iron was dry, and you didn’t soak the target with heat enough before apply solder. Wet the iron, put the heat up, get good contact for a good while before hand (use the flat of the iron, that’s what it’s there for), add a little flux if you have it, then feed your solder into the point where the tip meets the surface.

That was fun to watch. Thanks for putting it together, as I know that was a ton of work...both for the restoration, and for videoing and editing it. A couple suggestions. A product called "Kroil" is the best penetrating oil. $19 a can (here in the USA) but worth every penny. Buy yourself a set of either Snap-On or Mac screwdrivers. You'll stop ripping the heads out of screws. When you put bearings back into housings, coat the exterior with copper anti-seize, and they'll not only drop in easier, they'll be easier to remove. And if you haven't tried soda blasting for aluminum, you might really like how it turns out! Excellent job, and it turned out REALLY nice!

You have awesome videos, but there are some things in this video that got my attention. First, I don't know why did you bother yourself with changing the brushes, voltage regulator is a spare part and it costs less than 30$. Second, you are doing full restauration and you put back old heat tubes that are in bad condition on stator wires. Third, I have noticed that when you assembled the alternator, it didn't spin freely like it should, that means that bearings didn't sit all the way down, so there will be a lot of friction and heat that will result breaking down the bearings. Don't look at this as a negative comment, just some guidelines for next restauration :) Looking forward to see more of your videos :)

With stuck screws that are starting to strip out, make sure you have a fresh driver bit, clean out the screw head and apply a bit of valve grinding paste to the bit, this stops the bit slipping in the screw head and allows a lot more torque to undo the screw, if that doesn't work try the same with an impact driver and then have at it with a drill or grinder to get the head off if all that fails. I noticed youve covered your sandblast cabinette against over spray. 😊 Where did you find this thing, at the 3 fathom Mark of the dead sea?

Very common mistake about Phillips screws is they use wrong size of bit, so it slips from screwhead and starts grinding it.

flux core wire works fine he should clean better the surfaces and use a hotter iron...for starters and alternators i use a 140watt iron...never had trouble soldering brush assemblies etc....his solder joints look a bit cold

if you use flux core wire and both surfaces are clean there is no need for flux....i have been repairing starter and alternators for years and never bought any fluxor nedded to and my solder joints look and perform well

There's always need of flux above all when you're dealing with old stuff with a lot of oxidation even after cleaning the part to join.It's a basic rule of soldering. I believe you are talking about being lucky in soldering, like saying: *" I always run up to 250 km/h and i never failed"* . Bye and have a good flux

no iam not lucky i am a professional and no you already have the damn flux inside the solder...you just need and should to clean-scrape off the dirt of the parts

One thing : You really need to learn how to properly flow solder... These are all "cold joints". Keep heating it, much, MUCH longer. Until it flows.

Soldering is a short learning curve that one simply needs to practise a bit. But it is really easy once you get the hang of it ;o) In short : heat up BOTH the parts to be soldered together. Only using the bare soldering iron. Do not add solder yet. When both are heated enough, introduce solder only to the parts (and not to the soldering iron). If hot enough, the solder will flow nicely over both parts. Keep adding solder and heat, until you have a nicely flown solder joint. Don't remove the soldering iron TOO SOON (which is what is happening in this video, in my opinion). Keep heating and flowing a bit more and longer. Don't be afraid that the solder will "fall off", into the device (which I think you are afraid of here?), as the solder will only bond and stick with the heated parts.

I noticed that soldering problem on almost every restoring channels. By seeing the skill of these guys, it's strange because it's not that complicated to make a good solder joint.

Et le non-remplacement du régulateur, la pièce la plus sensible du machin! Bricolo...

Nice job on 99% of it. A couple of things. I would have just replaced the brush assembly. If you are going to solder things, you need to tin your tip and use flux. The soldering iron is a little weak, it needed a little more power. The rest of it was great. I've already liked several of your videos and i'm going to subscribe too. Keep up the good work.

2 quick tips, when you solder add some flux paste, it makes for a cleaner solder job and also cleans ups quicker. Also a finer tip helps ALOT. Just my few tips after learning about 10 from you 😂 good stuff!
