Starting 1991 Ford Transit 2.5D After 10 Years + Test Drive

1991 Ford Transit 80 Van 2.5D 51kw

[@victor4837]

About ten years ago I bought a 2.5 DI engine (1992 year, 4DA code) for a project, which I could not finish. I mounted the engine on a cradle and I am running it once in a few months just to listen to it 🙂! Many thanks to Flexiny!

[@davidbillberg2203]

Before looking at the video. It's a diesel Transit. No problem for Flexiny.

[@samholdsworth420]

So he got a car running that will never drive on the roads again? Lol

Imagine in a few years when someone does a video of a 2.0 ecoblue transit that hasn’t been started in years. Will only need a new engine and 4 injectors and it’ll fire straight up 😄

[@user-so6dz3nn2h]

Отличное видео, владею таким транзитом уже 11 лет, сейчас мало эксплуатирую, когда покупал многие думали это старый хлам, пробег был 500 тыщ и скорее всего скрученвый, проехал еще почти 200 , зимой мало езжу, летом очень часто, у меня турбированый EPIK, летом хватает что б потягаться с малолитражками, кузов начал подгнивать, нужно латать, пока не продаю, оставил для себя, пусть доживает свое при мне, хотя еще можно оживить и кататься работать😊

[@woolly3603]

This is by far the cleanest vehicle ive seen on your channel, it deserves to go back on the road!

[@IdiotRace]

I can see rust on the arches, in the door jams. Usually on something like a transit that means it's gonna be crusty af underneath.

Самый надёжный форд транзит(святая простота, чем меньше электроники, тем лучше) - хвала инженерам! , не то что сейчас выпускают, Именно на этой модели закончилась эра надёжных, ремонтопригодных, неприхотливых транзитов!!! 🎥👍

I was used to hear this engine sound in my childhood, in early 90's. Tanks for making me hear it again. Good job!

[@flyfrun2563]

Your a legend. Someone tried to get my transit started and he destroyed the engine. I wish every mechanic was like you.

[@muckle8]

Last of the old reliable transits - great old faithful workhorse - deserves a makeover

[@donnydimitrov4196]

The best transit ever made . Thank you for your video . Many memories these transits are still running in Bulgaria

[@vladg2239]

USA: this van has 200k miles, it's time to recycle it. Flexiny in Eastern Europe: this van has 500k km, put new battery and it's ready for drifting.

[@Timico1000]

To be fair: this Transit won´t be roadworthy in most european countries.

[@jdmfl26]

these transits with these engines were truly amazing machines, my dad owned one, althou a slightly newer model with the pointy headlights. The point is, if it werent for the rust, which appeared in almost every body panel on this astonishing vehicle, we would probably own it to this day, becouse the engines were absoloutly immortal. Great video and great sounding and looking car.

[@robt2151]

I recall getting a new Transit in 1968, the rust had already started before it was delivered.

[@stevenmoran4060]

⁠everything was rusty when you got it back then.

[@user-jw8ob9pd7c]

О да😊

[@karvapea50]

This generation Transit is such a legend on Europe🥳

[@IronSunsetscales]

pre facelift model, odd for a 91 year transit, love that it's the short chassis flat roof model, and tailgate instead of doors, not many of those hanging around anymore!

[@borjaevo]

Sounds very healthy. The engine seems to be pretty fine

[@pedroadelino100]

I still see in my country people who make this vans workhorses.Such a wonderful engine too. This van goes forever,just need a nice owner,but is a bit with rust. Nice video like always guys,love your content. Have a nice 2024

Great video flexiny, great work, amazing, dependable ford diesel, lovely sound 😀👍👌

[@sohumichigozumaki1214]

Именно на таком, 1991 года выпуска, отъездил 18 лет. Всякие были ситуации и условия, но ни разу эта чудо-машина меня не подвела. Модель была редкая- 2,0 литровый карбюраторный двигатель... Единственный минус- ржавел. Продал только 2016 году, но и сейчас вспоминаю его добрым словом.

У меня до сих про такой же, 1990г, верой и правдой служит. Родной пробег 800т км, но еще не было капитального ремонта. У нас в Санкт-Петербурге с этим проще, нет ограничений по возрасту автомобиля

Great economical engine. Very good on fuel. They need a new timingbelt every 60.000 km. I had one snap on me once. Bent a couple of pushrods and a rocker broke. After fixing that it ran fine again.Not the best starters in cold weather. You really need a good battery.

My dad has one even the same config although there is one difference, it has barn doors and no tailgate, 1991 Ford Transit 2.5TD (was turboed by importer because Finnish laws at the time) sadly it has sat for more than 17 years (18 this year) because headgasket broke, blew one frost plug out and at the same time all of the waters came out too, so it needs a little work before it can be driven again also it has rust
