RESTORING OUR WRECKED 150,000 MILE MK2 FOCUS RS (PART 5)

[@iaing2030]

Hi Ben, Mechanic tip for you on the reason nuts are seizing. If you use a wire wheel on a die grinder or angle grinder to clean the threads up before putting WD40 on they will come off.

[@monty6545]

Above 350 bhp those plastic inlet plenums melt and collapse . Also you might want to replace the oil filter housing and fix that whistling mouse under the bonnet by fitting an aftermarket recirculation valve .

[@russellwade7810]

It's great to see the mk2 rs filtering into the vids it helps people like me prepare for parts that are now starting to wear out 👍👍

[@alexbmwfan342]

Some of these ford focus and ford fiesta vehicles are sweet, love how it sounds expecially as its an RS

[@waynelewes7817]

That new scorpion set up looks😍 and sounds sweet! 🎶

[@jonathanjordan1180]

Great to see both dads on here on Fathers Day - great videos keep up the good work

[@anthonyproud2551]

Top work there, sounding much better. Gary at Collins really knows his stuff👍

[@rafaelalvarado7473]

Glad to see Lee again. We miss Lee.

[@stevenfoleyuk9404]

Love this car and that new Exhaust is mint . You are doing a great job and looking forward to seeing it finished .

[@carlbrown7865]

Great job. Thought you would of got Collins do you a full mongoose system

[@yan4524]

Ben's Dad AND Lee turn up, guess who adjusted the exhaust bracket ! 😂😂😂😂😂 These new videos are comedy gold, keep it up.

[@fredd3.14]

an induction coil heater could save a lot of headache, its a good buy if you're working on rusty bolts. much more convenient and more direct heat into the metal than a torch, makes it easy. love the vids!

[@darranjsamuel3063]

Awesome work Ben 🙌🙌🙌 FairPlay your nailing it mate 😁 the Scorpion sounds wicked! and seeing Lee and your Dad was the cherry on Top 😁

[@Yakazuka]

That previous exhaust looked more like it was meant for the ST Mk2, looked pants either way, that Scorpion exhaust is lush - epic work, and as always love the bants 😆

[@johnpells5992]

Great video , love these videos were your working in your new unit on these older cars good job 👍👍👍

[@mbfcamanslife]

Ben if a nut look really rusty get a small drill bit 3-4mmish and drill a couple of holes through the nut then cut through the rest with a chisel.

[@dubway89]

Great video Ben! Love seeing this RS come along. Sounds absolutely mint with the scorpion on too, drive by next! Good to see Lee knocking about too

[@EVILGT]

Cheers bud 👍🏼

[@BiglumpADV]

First exhaust I ever put on a car was a scorpion back box. Twin DTM so it had the same flick up exits, sounded epic

[@johnrowell942]

Great project RS and nice ehaust system 👍

[@R50DNL]

Need to get an uprated Recirc valve to stop the whistle on start up and revs 👍

[@tonymcnamara9368]

It's good that you show the reality of auto repair, that even the simpler jobs can take hours because of rust weld! Too many make it look too easy, and that's not the case, even working on newer vehicles.

[@EVILGT]

You’d have a field day with me then mate. Everything just seems to be a nightmare 😅👍🏼

[@tonymcnamara9368]

Cheers mate glad you’re enjoying the effort 👍🏼

[@BenGillam]

Are you going to do something about those rusty bits underneath? Top of it looking great now :)

[@EVILGT]

Had them checked and they are structurally sound. Don’t have the time or budget to make them look any better mate. Got to have a line with some of these projects otherwise you’ll never stop

[@davidwebb8877]

Good shout Ben

[@IOMskatezone]

Good lad Ben keep up the graft your learning fast mate and your dad still giving me a good giggle 🤣

[@sambolton1970]

RS 📃 certificate in the post!! 👍 Well done Ben!

[@mrvoorhees2627]

Focus rs is coming on nicely. I'm waiting to see what the seat does when it's mapped you've made a nice job of that i know its over budget but its been done really well not bodged 👍👍

[@EVILGT]

I’m excited to see that too! Hopefully will be done very soon 🤞🏼

[@lewisgcham2450]

Think we need a drag race between the cupra and RS 👀

[@tiks1862]

Little tip next time you do drop links. Put a gun on it and tighten them and it will snap the threads and falls right off 👍

[@leestephens8663]

Best thing for the lamba sensors is heat them up

[@andy17211]

Great work Ben

[@James-my6ko]

Ben's two dad's both visited the workshop 😂 . Great video Ben 👍. Looking forward to the video where Lee tests it after all the work has been done on the car.

[@dannyauto5901]

Well done Ben , great work❤❤

[@kevy2300]

Hi Ben, where did you get the rear break dust shields from please. They've gone rusty on my RS too

[@EVILGT]

Parts plus mate 👍🏼

[@kvirk7583]

Nice of you to join us lee lol x

[@darrenm7964]

Awesome video as usual Ben, glad to see you giving things a try you should buy yourself a gas blow torch or a handheld induction heater or both they will come in handy with the rusty motor's you work on 😭😭 plus I don't think you needed a new lambda sensor just a blanking plug it will be mapped out when you get your tune sorted 👍

[@EVILGT]

Nice one mate. Collins said I needed one even though they’ll effectively be mapping it out as it needs to just be there and plugged in to complete the circuit etc 🤷🏼‍♂️👍🏼

[@jimmcdonald5721]

I'd be getting that front bumper realigned. Looking at the black front panel it's probably had a front end bump.

[@billybronx3534]

Awww😂mate glad to av Lee Roy Back 😢😂

[@focusst171]

Just listened to the before and after. Have you had the turbo checked? I can hear a squeak when you rev it which sound like turbo bearings

[@EVILGT]

It’s normal for these mate. Recirc valve 👍🏼

[@benpenagonzales6014]

Get those standard springs back on. Will look sweet still and drive so much better

[@ljk5573]

Lee… 👀 was that you!!?? Sorry I blinked.. 😂 good to see you even if it was for a millisecond..

[@djrichylaurence8991]

Quick motor. Nice

[@freemoyoyo]

I can hear the mouse when you rev it, need to change that recirc valve to a mountune or something similar

[@EVILGT]

That bloody whistle is so annoying 🤣

[@freemoyoyo]

@@EVILGT yep lol

[@danielfelton8285]

Heat is the key

[@mjjr1000]

10:01 pipe wrench and stamp on it usually works for me lol

[@kevinjames7367]

Massive improvement 👏

[@LeggyPete]

Sounds good 😉😎

[@jaytc2003]

Hope the quality was OK on your scorpion. I got a downpipe from then last year, turned up missing the scorpion tag and the downpipe was full of swarf. Contacted them, terrible customer service, asked me to send it back to them for them to weld the plate on st my expense. I asked for them to collect it and drop off a replacement but they went radio silent. In the groups I am in I won't recommend them. Anyway, car is coming along nicely, good work 👍. Nice to see your real and adopted dad there as well 😁

[@EVILGT]

Sorry to hear about your bad experience mate. We’ve had 3 systems now and haven’t (touch wood) had any issues 🙏🏻

[@jaytc2003]

@EVIL GT you have a large following though where people see it, I don't 😂

[@WAXANDAWAY]

Nice to see the curb assassin in the video again 😂

[@eQuASiANXane]

Maybe think of getting some drill wire brushes and get cleaning all the shit off the nuts, bolts and threads before dousing everything in WD. Always found it helps a lot

[@iStewy]

Id recommend keeping the mountune decat over the scorpion but class vid as per usual

Your name suggests that you could be biased 👀🤣👍🏼

[@mountuneaddict]

@@EVILGT I do have a mountune mk2 mr375 residuals are just in favour with mountune tuning . Although 420 Collins will transform it. When I went mr375 from the mp350 the car came alive and was next level. Good effort on bringing this car around enjoying the updates.
