    What a beauty! I have only come to love older cars like these (non-sports/muscle cars) in recent years. The P1800 is such a neat little car.

    Oh for a time when a head would only take a week, I took mine into a shop in Vancouver last October and got it back in May! Much the same, new valve seats, replaced the valves, double springs and sleeves and stem seals.

      He does have his own channel on here called workshop diaries.
      He uploads a new video every week, normally on a Thursday or Friday
      They are normally around the 30 minute mark, and quite involved but informative

    Should have checked air mixture screws on carbs first, as the plugs where black and running far too rich.
    Could have saved £85 on carb kits.

    all good but this was really about maintenance of what you have rather than improving on it as you would have with say freer air cleaners and exhaust...

    amigo la compresión de los motores no se mide con el motor en marcha esa no es la manera en la prueba del agua si está correcto maestro yo soy un técnico mecánico con más de 50 años de experiencia trabajando hasta la fecha

      What does this have to do with milking? They post the videos they owned and paid for to advertise the show featuring all of the mechanics used.
