S2EP18 - Gearbox Removed from a Seized F135? - Why is Jack's FJ45 only a 2 seater?

The Cadet blue would look awesome on the 45. Love the little guest cameos of your completed 40. That thing is a beauty!

A diesel mechanic mate told me when the oil is fresh it usually shows the oil was down or non existent, they seized it, put new oil into it in the vain hope it would run. He said he saw again and again and again in his job with small ( smaller ) engines!

Another great video. Thanks for the shout out Jayson. Glad the buffs are getting some use @cruiserscot

[@40ChannelCruiser]

Yep snowed again today. They have been getting an awesome workout!

[@travislarson5192]

Great Episode! If Jack is taking suggestions, that Cadet blue would be an amazing color. I'm sure it'll be great whatever he decides. I really enjoy and appreciate this channel. Thanks for the content.

[@40ChannelCruiser]

Thank mate, I appreciate the support and comments.

Another great video Jason you really need to save that 135, I normally spin the oil pump with an old blade screw driver and a drill to pump oil all around the engine then I use a pinch bar on the fly wheel ring gear against the bell housing sometimes works.The oil looks clean because it has not run in years unfortunately the 135 is prone to the head cracking and letting water into the engine maybe its not the cylinders stuck but the crank. Looking forward to the next video. Thanks for the video.

[@40ChannelCruiser]

Thank you mate, will be looking the crank. Hope the head is not cracked.

The cadet blue 1970 2 seaters were apparently Australian Navy orders from what im led to believe. I have one as well

[@40ChannelCruiser]

Yes, we are lead to believe the same. I would love to find an old photo of one in Navy service.

I’ve already let ya know on the post but still intriguing that mines 11th month 70 and 2 seater cadet blue!

[@40ChannelCruiser]

Thanks for sharing. It would be great to build a bit of a catalogue of the 2 seater cadet blues.

[@joebrodie]

That Cadet Blue is a nice color scheme. Is there some still left in the body panels?

[@40ChannelCruiser]

Yep all the inside is still cadet blue.

[@TomHaigh-m5j]

My in laws have a 2/70 fj45 in cadet blue it’s a 2 seater as well. Would love to find out some more info on them

[@40ChannelCruiser]

So far every Cadet Blue I have seen from 70 - 71 has been a 2 seater.

[@allout4wdriving941]
