What type of ram is that ddr3 or ddr4

you populated the memory banks maybe wrong with two Dimms, you should have in 1 and 2 not 1 and 3 i had a problem with my T7810 wrong memory placement

nice work!

how much did you pay for the computer?.

your multi core cinebench benchmark isnt working right it should be running all 24 virtual cores...you are only running on 2 cores there thats why your score sucks so bad. make sure you have all cores and have hyper threading enabled in the bios

i have a 1070ti in my pc💀

awesome content, just needs to be edited down for the average watcher. Keep it up!

Wow. Well done what a massive job. I just changed out my T1n wiring harness, and I can say finding one in decent condition now they aren't being make any longer is like gold dust. I will keep my old one as its repairable, but note that my Sprinter previously had a mild case of Black Death in one injector, which caused all the wiring covers to disintegrate and that led to the engine stalling at highway speeds on 2 occasions from electrical shorts. Very scary. I highly recommend checking under the top cover regularly and recognise that sound of the engine 'tick' at the start of this video. Let's call this video a classic 'cautionary tale'.

Why would you let it get so bad

Call florida man!

Something special about those t1n sprinters

PS In relation to the reliability of diesel fuel injectors. As stated the 2009 Ford focus estate 1500 diesel has done 218,000 without the injectors being replaced. My other car a 2012 Ford focus C-max 1600 with a different clamping system holding down the injector just like your sprinter is currently at 62,000 miles and I am now in the process of replacing a fourth injector. I have in other places read that others have been having this problem but Ford does not accept that there is an issue with injectors for the particular model at its year. Thank you again for the video and if people are impatient looking at it they can slide along the play stripe to move on the video and soon find where you resolved the problem.

Great account in real time of your struggle the black stuff and being able to overcome the issue with one injector. Seeing the original state you would not credit that one leaking injector could be responsible. I had the same issue 7 years ago with one injector. I started to smell what I thought was exhaust fumes and thought it was where I was going in traffic and being a diesel I didn't hear the puffing noise till I opened the bonnet to do other work on the car. Only when I removed the top cover could I see the black crud aound one injector. I cleaned just like yourself but could not get the injector to budge. If I had seen your video it would have given me the confidence to persist. As it was a call out mechanic came to my home and did exactly as you did running the engine, getting it hot and eventually by twisting it was removed. After her left, I replaced the seals on the other three injectors.The car had done about 150,000 miles when this happened and now at 218,000 without ever having to change the injectors.

What kind of cleaner do you use?

Great video & Well done, I hope you were very pleased with yourself for fixing it & gave yourself a huge pat on the back. I had the same issue on a 2002 sprinter but it was the injector right at the back.😱 I paid £500 to have it cleaned repaired as I simply wouldn't have been able to do it myself. The mechanic who did the work damaged the rocker cover & I had to buy a salvaged replacement for £85. I had other injector problems a few months after this & a couple of copper washer issues occured. I had a trained Mercedes mechanic work on these & he resolved all the injector issues. The black death is so common on these engines. Ignore the negative comments, there are far too many dickheads on TH-cam!!!!

Well done, i done a neighbors Mercedes 320, that was quite bad.

Good job

Well done sir. What a job and I'm guessing you wish you did this 20,000 miles ago? My T1N is still ok, but I like to see someone tackle the job because I know I will have to do it one day, Thank you. So glad it all worked out for you, Hi from France 🙂

My 2006 t1n has 450000 miles still running perfectly. Great engine

Mine looks like 2 injectors are leaking.

im 99 percent sure the dell needs to be set to AHCI mode . plus reseating the cpu will help

Hi when you fit new monitors in your dash, there's no need to take side trim off, the covers will come off with out. If you want nicer clarity of sound, maybe your head unit might have high pass filter, & low pass filter to adjust, as a facility.

I can appreciate the method. repair the one injector and run it. Strongly recommend cleaning up the whole mess, pulling all injectors and reseal. Honda seals!

thats why its the worlds best engine, the baby kept running for 23000 miles, any other one would have died in the hands of an owner like this. I am a proud papa of a 2006 t1n and this broke my heart

😂😅

Thank you!!!

Three words: Gel Paint Remover (not the California-safe kind if you can get it). Keep piling it on and it dissolves the build up, wipe away with throw-away paper towels and repeat. The solvents captured in the gel do evaporate, so you want to keep piling it on; you can slow this by covering it with clear cling wrap. You HAVE to wear gloves, eye protection and long sleeves when you're working with this stuff. Learned about it years ago to de-coke pistons in rare vintage Euro motorcycles when tracing down cracks during cylinder head & piston inspections , and it's used to de-coke the power valves in two stroke dirt bikes as well as cleaning piston lands/rings without the scratching the surface treatment off. Neat thing is, if you let it do it's chemical thing and keep wiping away the goo and re-applying, you can see the original machining/casting in the surface, Keep the lid on the can, I use spray can plastic lids and plumbing metal acid flux brushes to apply the stuff and pour out as needed. Once you got down to the exposed injector hold down plates you could have just poured this stuff on from the can and let it sit. Next time, right? 😀 You stuck with it, I love watching people work through problems, using what they have and what they know so far- that's how we learn and get better, having problems, we don't even remember the easy jobs! Watching 20 minutes and I kept cringing at all the carbon block accretion you have going on there (it is indeed the worst I have seen from just one injector!)

How they holding up?

Wow thanks so much - this is a really nice overview - love your attention to detail!

Keep doing this man, I love it!

'promosm' 😱

Yeah...could have been shorter but great info. I ordered the honda injector seals for mine, they come from Japan and are supposed to be thicker and not fail. # 2 injector on mine as well but caught it early so just a bit of black spatter.

Why not just buy a complete keyboard, they can be gotten relatively cheap and easy most times to replace

I wish you edited out some of the repetative some of the slow booring stuff.

Wow what a mess lol. Thanks for the video. Crazy amount of work. Good job cleaning that nasty out!

Great video!! I have an OM648 engine and the black death is always a concern for me. This is why I took off the engine cover so I can check for leaks every couple of weeks.

My question and I’m not trying to be an asshole so please don’t take it as that, why don’t you just fix it when you knew there was a problem 23k ago?

what grit are you using on the RO?

There is skill to this I tried the same and gave up and took the bonnet off and had a professional do it Mercedes white. Worth a try I guess.

Thanks for sharing!

Hi, You can just put a screw driver inside the alternator fins and check if the pulley moves one way. When they go the tension pulley tends to move more,plus at tick over there is more engine vibration. When you started it are all the dash lights that stay on due to you removing fuses or is there other faults? Hi from France 🙂

Hey sweet van! I just picked up a 2000 Mercedes Sprinter here in Australia and have been welding in panels on the roof all week. It's worth it though on these killer machines.

I just realized today that my gloves have been covering the microphone on the GoPro, causing the horrible muffled sound you hear sometimes. Working on changing that now!

Hi from France, Europe. Nice work, I did the same about 5 years ago, Also took the chance to change the water pump, and clean the inter cooler and put a new belt and pulley's, I used a Merc seal as I had a problem with an after market seal.

Correction: the seal was not Corteco - that's the second one I have .. somewhere. The one shown in the video is made by elring.

If anyone's worried - my boy was crying because his neighbor friend accidentally ripped the wings off of his small model airplane. He got over it quickly - after a little Scotch tape fixing work.
