5.1 BMC Dynamometer Test

This 5.1 BMC diesel was purchased blind from a online auction. As a completely unknown quantity I have been slowly working through the engine, firstly removing and cleaning the sump and checking the condition of the crankshaft bearings, fitting and timing a injector pump and finally today testing the engine on my Dynamometer

Thanks for video! I really enjoy the old British built stuff, it was just finishing Frontline service on farms when I was a kid going to primary school. Definitely well made and some excellent engineering. Shame there aren't any of the tractor manufacturer companies left.
You'll have to do a video on your Montego , montegoson👍

Good to see you back on youtube mate. It looks like the old BMC has plenty of life left.

Your channel is super informative and much appreciated ! Some of us are just encountering these machines for the first time . I'm looking for a basic tutorial on operating a Nuffield 4/65 . From basic driving to manipulating implements . If anyone knows of one I'd greatly appreciate it .

I remember these engines they could sometimes suffer from porous liners. they are a wet liner engine,

Cheers from Finland. Can you share info, where you bought parts to this engine? I Have similar engine and it requires full overhaul before installing to nuffield.

I usually get my parts from Charnleys here in England, but I would have thought there would be someone in Finland. I would put the question to the Scandinavian Nuffield/Leyland group.

@@montegoson Charnleys is familiar shop. Have bought many parts to Nuffield and Leyland from there. Thanks for help and keep up the good work 👍
I like your videos.

Any 5.1 with mini mac for sale I'm after one for my 460 to do a conversion

[@montegoson]

Few and far between, but watch the auctions and eBay, they do come up now and then.

I have fitted ford cargo minimec to this exact engine. Timing marks didnt line up as well.
Of course you need to look up the timing on the cam to the main gear and you need to be carefull that you are looking at the correct marks.
I used spill timing method to get close like here: th-cam.com/video/XGyok0Ra13k/w-d-xo.html
Also I dont have coupling like you do so I cant do fine adjustment, luckily I seem to have gotten it just right.
