SAD NEWS FOR MY PAGANI ZONDA S600...*MYSTERY ENGINE FAILURE*

[@jimboooooooooo]

What do you think happened to the motor?

[@glazedegyptian]

It wants to feel like a Zonda and require maintenance

[@nickmason4017]

Bad rings.

[@legomyyoda8454]

It's a Lemon from the factory. Thats my guess.

[@josephmattingly4512]

The wiring in these cars pre 96 is always suspect. Typically it goes like this: the maf sensor wiring insulation deteriorates to the point of shorting out (especially if the wiring gets disturbed to service intake boots or throttle actuators) at which point the engine goes full rich which in turn washes out the cylinders causing excessive friction to destroy the rings and cylinders. The MAF wiring is separate from the injector harness which usually gets replaced. If you remove some of the insulation from the mafs wiring it will be very obvious and the deterioration usually runs all the way to the ecu "coffin". Unfortunately mercedes used a white glue to bunch the wires together at the grommet leading into the coffin so to remove the maf wiring properly by de-pinning it at the ecu connectors and completely removing the bad wire will result in other wires getting damaged. Best to build a new lh and rh sfi harness from the ground up. If you have this issue going on you will absolutely fuck that mint engine you are installing in short order. That is the only way a sub 100k mile m120 dies if it was otherwise maintained.

Good to see you keeping your word on being consistent here. Came a long way man. Keep it up

[@jimboooooooooo]

Thank you will do!

[@recognizereal7ify]

Lol its only one video

[@DayDream-RR]

@@recognizereal7ify True but you gotta have hope xD

[@TrVlogs82]

Lmfao BIG MIKE!! Damn, we should be brother & sister at this point we are everywhere together.

[@MaxSpeedMike]

@Tr Vlogs haha what's up brotha!!

[@Hudsoncal5]

Stick with it, it’s not going to be fun or easy getting this off the ground… We’re all here, stay positive and motivated, and DO NOT STOP uploading Jimbo!

[@timfleenor3705]

Low mileage means the car has sat for extended periods of times. That means piston rings can stick and valve seats can corrode, causing compression leaks. It makes perfect sense. I would trust the 200k+ mile car over the sub-100k mile car 95% of the time....

[@seank3683]

Happy to see you back with the channel Jimbo, look forward to the future content you bring!! Maybe a spotlight with the old vette at some point?!

[@ozziemcc]

Best of luck moving forward... you'll do great!

[@jimboooooooooo]

Thank you!!

[@dbrad32]

If Jimbo can figure out a way to squeeze more power from this car and give us the heavenly F1 sound this may be in my top 3 favorite cars of all time on KZbin!!!! I’m obviously a huge AMG fan but man everyone’s got to appreciate this thing!!!!

[@DaveA441]

This is exactly what I subscribed for years ago. The simple jimbo life vlogs about his car. I own a 84 4 speed C4 and a 1968 Camaro convertible and the rarest Jeep LJ wrangler

[@TheWorldOfKel]

If you car sounds anything like Effspot S600 it'll be NUTS! Can't wait to hear the Glorious sounds that are to come....

[@agustinszalai3159]

Good to see you back and consistent! Looking forward for what’s to come!!

[@petescarport]

I’ve had a few of these all over 150k miles and no issues internally. So crazy to see that happen. And let me tell you mine was beat on too. Great to see you fixing her up.

[@chasehiggins32]

Glad to see you back man

[@SwanDrives]

Happy to see you back, I always missed your vids when you stopped uploading your personal stuff here. Looking forward to future content man!

[@johnconnick3796]

Good job jimbo , here's to a successful future 👍

[@alexandergil1154]

Well it’s not like that s600 got a little beating while in savage garage

[@isaacbrown3150]

These M120’s really don’t like to sit but that’s still a confusing one, glad you found the problem even as unfortunate as it is

[@llRaZzLeDaZzLell]

If you are no longer with SG, you should create your own identity otherwise you are not really “moving on”

[@HappyHarvick4]

Glad you uploaded already!

[@MrCrazyking81]

Good to see you "back" I missed your content for a long time!

[@Lburt07]

What happened to the Murci after you sold it? How many brakedowns has it had since and are you gonna film with it again? And maybe buy it back?!?! PLZ DO!!!

[@jimboooooooooo]

All very good questions, and all will be answered in an upcoming video :)

[@olyons]

You gunna post crown rally stuff from last year haha?

[@bryanrb21]

Exciting new beginning and looking forward to some badass vlogs! 👍👍🔥🔥

[@CricketThomas]

Glad you’re back!

[@michaelleroux7706]

I can't wait to see your videos I'll always be here supporting you

[@brentonmcclean3647]

Hey Jimbo...your last upload even teared me up a little...but hey you've got this man ! You're very talented and confident💪...I forsee you developing more and or new awesome content for all of us as time progresses. Chin up and I look forward to the future "Jimbo" will bring !✌😎👍‼️

[@justinr5425]

You seen effspot merc? You're trying to get it to sound like that ?

[@jimboooooooooo]

I originally tried to buy that exhaust system. But, The guy who makes them in Japan ignored me. I reached out every which way you could. So I decided to just have them made myself.

[@bibbysvj]

what happened to the muricelago??

[@coreymorgenstern8065]

I like these videos better than just seeing somebody drive a car all the time I like the talk

[@maxtrenck8511]

Looking forward to first drive! 👍🏼

[@Stealthm3p]

Been subbed since the “most hated mustang” glad to see you posting over here again 😃

[@kaa478]

Very exited to see this soon and please show us more of the mercedes collection

[@njw1840]

The plastic timing chain guides on the inside of the motor or it could be the wiring harness is starting to go bad

[@ScottHillsmusclecargarage]

It looks like you've got some spaghetti to cook up, with a look of your headers. One side reminded me of the bundle of snakes on the Shelby cobra racecars that raced LeMans in the 60's.

[@manishmkt]

I fell in LOVE with SG because of you Jimbo and I definitely miss your long hairs with those red glasses.

[@mash7438]

Hi Jimbo

[@was786loaded]

Jimbo this is the way forward bro

[@bryanrb21]

Jimbo can't wait to see more from your channel! I am local and if you ever need help with vlogging or whatever hit me up!👍👍

[@suvdrift]

The text message notification 😂😂😂. Now I will use it as a YT notification

[@01transam]

I hope you guys invest in a starter heat wrap to help save it from the heat of the header.

[@iannorton4463]

OMG Jimbo 😲 , surely you cannot weld the diff...? What are you thinking of..? Back street bodges R us?? Get a scroll for it, they are not dear atall.. ✌🇬🇧✌🇺🇸

[@Mr_CJ_rambo]

Waiting on that race Jimbo 😎

[@amazin7006]

These engines can be a bit finnicky, same with the v8 of that generation. The fuel system can just randomly cut power and its hard to diagnose. Fuel filter, fuel regulator, vacuum hoses... it just goes on and on. A specialist can diagnose it within seconds but its hard as just an amateur who isn't used to these stock m120s

[@4200timeB]

Such a badass car

[@datboytai863]

We are so close to eachother glad you’re back in md

[@dougc9192]

This is going to be so bad ass

[@glazedegyptian]

Title gave me a good laugh thank you

[@keiran_k_3912]

Fun fact: that starter is about the same size as the starter in a 70 charger

[@Valdismith]

WHat about Effspot's 12K exhaust, it is not the company that does them, it has been done by a Japaneese guy, he calls a genius, right? I swear Effspot's has the best sounding exhaust on this car.

[@Adanklifts]

You took the vidoe down right before i hesrd what was wrong with it i was so sad😂😂😂😂
