Many thanks for doing this series, I rebuilt my TF front end last autumn. Replaced the subframe, refurbed brake calipers, new braided hoses as well as all new bushes, poly bushes and bearings (including the wheel bearings which are a sod). Now about to drop the engine and rear subframe to do the same including all new silicone hoses, hi flow radiator new exhaust system etc. You are giving me the kick I needed to get started.
@@Exhausted-autos I had a wheel bearing give up last year l as well as a subframe mount, took the decision then to do a load of work and hopefully sort out any potential overheating issues too.
Great work and great to see this car coming back from such neglect without handing over thousands of pounds to a garage. I hope you have more luck for cheap lambda sensors than I did, my codes went for about an hour and then came back, ended up buying a NGK one which worked.
Nice job! Nice price on the sensor, too! I've found the cheaper ones tend to work best. Once spent £150 on a Bosch one that lasted 3 months before dying. Was so annoyed! P.S. I want your wiper sound on my car. 😂 That's amazing!
As much as I'm enjoying your videos I can't bear watching you without eye protection when you're under the car. I've spent a whole afternoon and and a few hours through the night with a piece of rust in my eye thinking it would clear up on it's own when I couldn't bear it anymore and ended in hospital emergency and a few days with a patch. As you say in your videos safety first and it should come first even if it's not life threatening.
I think your right, and certainly right to point it out....I would certainly pull people up at work on this!!! it's easy at home to skip it when under pressure to get things done. Il do better. 👍👍👍
I just pointed it out because it happened to me, and if I'm being honest it happened 3 times, once when I was chasing a wall with a grinder although I did have my prescription specs on, another time which was more serious I was trying to cut a piece off a flat washer to make it fit in a panel with a shear and the piece I cut flew and hit me in the white of my eye, luckily with the flat side because it would have pierced my eye and ended up with a blister the size of a pea resulting that I could hardly close my eye lids. Anyway, I have been binge watching your videos all this morning since I searched for content regarding the MG TF . @@Exhausted-autos
You have inspired me to get the spanners back out and have a dabble on my very own WTF! It ran out of MOT today so its wheels and tyres to start with.....
Fun stuff! It's another little gem of a video. Our host is looking more comfortable in front of the camera and the production is more polished.
Thanks buddy.... 👍👍
If the wife saw you using the chopping board.. 😂 class.. love the videos

Nice video. Toying with the idea of a TF after owning an A and a B in the past great set of vids to let me know what I might be in for!
Ah. Good old stick! The best tool in the box!

@Exhausted-autos

Do you have a link to the sensor?
