@freezeme360 a personal favourite is the hell spring. Small enough to to hide in shop dust. Large enough to fly across the room and land, apparently, in another dimension. Rumour has it you can place a 10mm socket under your pillow and a fairy will find it for you overnight
great video, I love how you go into details because many of us here are a little more than amateurs and as myself there are plenty of engineers I wish you tear down a high end turbo+waste gate and expose the technologies involved
Just watching your videos you've taken away the fear of working cars being so complex. These videos make me want to learn more and do more with my own car.
Like everyone else says, it's so good to see the boss of a race company doing this sort of thing, it shows us you're a true car nerd, and that you're aware that all us amateur car nerds want to know this sort of stuff. If you are able, please keep going with tearing down things that we don't usually get to see!
In 1994 I had a 16v Golf 2 which ran a Bosch high pressure pump like the one you opened. A fitter and Turner friend and I opened it up and serviced it.......car ran another 180 000 km on it. He started a successful business doing repairs!!!!
I have been watching your channel for years and always enjoy listening to your perspective on these things. I would definitely want to see more videos like this, where you explain the inner workings of how these things work, or how you build your racecars
Oh man... the flying E-clip. I started racing RC back in the 80's when they used E-clips on everything. I feel your pain trying to find that damned thing. Seeing the armature from that larger pump takes me back to the days of the Hudy Commutator lathe and cutting motors between rounds and tuning your brushes for the perfect amount of contact pressure and timing.
That brief pause when the C-clip launched itself, I've felt that same feeling before 😆. Great videos. This is one of the best channels for mechanical geeks like me.
Thanks for sharing Stephan, I would have thought AEM used a brushless motor but guess the engineers have their reasons. Also like your teardown video's keep em' coming!
You're a super knowledgeable man, Mr Papadakis, with an excellent, relaxed presentation style that comes with that knowledge. I enjoy all of your vids, even though I don't need to know any of what you show me as I don't have the £££ to modify or even buy a sweet car. Definitely interesting though. Totally subbed.
Awesome video, you explained so much that I've always wondered about. I would like to see you year apart a power steering pump, and a rack and pinion to show how steering works on modern cars.
Shocked me a bit when I learned about it a few years ago. Honda recently had an issue where, in the pursuit of energy efficiency, they ran the fuel pump at variable speeds according to flow need. With some fuels this would cause sulphur build up in the motor and then pump failure. So a software fix was put out to increase the minimum speed. further, fuel carries away heat from the pump motor as well as lubricate and I assume clean it from commutator dust.
Great info Steph, I find nearly all the older bosch external pumps start leaking at the body o ring but still work. I decrimped a couple of them to replace it, then just use them for fuel transfer
Would love to see a single, dual, or maybe even triple damper teardown side by side. I know the triple would cost a lot but one can hope you've got some fully re-buildable ones hangin' out
Other than missing an explanation of how the pump element of the 044 style pump (like how you explained the reactive turbine pump element works) this was a really cool educational video! 😁
Interesting. I have disassembled a few pumps for fun and this is what i found. Bmw E30 318i: roller. Audi C4 V6: turbine. MB W210 V6: screws, like the pasta screws.
Lol it’s good to know that even papadakis drops stuff on the ground and has to crawl around to find it.
At least his floors are white so they're easy to find
And there’s the reason for having a clean workshop ;)
His workshop is way cleaner them my living room
Lol!
Lol
No disassembly is complete without a search for the jeeesus clip
@freezeme360 a personal favourite is the hell spring. Small enough to to hide in shop dust. Large enough to fly across the room and land, apparently, in another dimension.
Rumour has it you can place a 10mm socket under your pillow and a fairy will find it for you overnight
Jeezless!
@@tojiroh you'll find it when you need a 9mm or 11mm
@freezeme360 maybe you’ve got imperial fairies. Try a 7/16 or 13/32
"Want to see me teardown other stuff?"
Uh yes, basically anything. I'll watch.
agreed, open up anything and everything engine-related. Maybe a power steering pump or AC compressor next? Different variable valve timing setups?
Yeah, I want to see everything. My suggestion is maybe an AC compressor or a electric bypass exhaust?
Yaaasss, tear down all the things
Mabe the electric power steering
Tear down the newer brushless pumps or dry sump oil pump
@Peterbjorck posted a video on dry sump pump just a few hours ago. Very educational videos just like this one :)
Look back a year he's torn down a dry sump system
I appreciate that papi papa isn't just a big wig in an office but actually knows the ins and outs of all his cars.
I think he's the exact opposite: totally involved with every aspect of his cars' development. Great knowledge and a great teacher.
a workshop floor so clean you can find a c-clip on the floor easily after it pings off across the room.... niiiice!
A ABS unit would be interesting :)
That i would love to see!
To the top good Sir!
2 fuel pumps were harmed in the making of this educational documentary.
Nope...they were...um...er...hmmm...sacrificed at the "Alter of Knowledge"...
This is extraordinarily detailed and broken down for us to easily understand. Thank you for sharing this with us.
LMAO 6:44 Literally me every time I install valve springs and a retainer pops out
That was me in kitchen yesterday assembling my heads😅
The end of the video is a classic when you are dealing with screws and that kind of clips, such a relief when you find them 😂
That’s a clean floor to be able to find tiny e-clip
I dare say he has next level ocd cause i've seen some clean work areas but nothing like him
@@nuvisionprinting definitely , the man has a dedicated room just for building his engines
@@nikogambino2723 i've also seen dedicated engine rooms that aren't quite at the level of papadakis!
the gudgeon pin retainer clip that i lost on the floor and is preventing me from finishing my engine rebuild be like.
great video, I love how you go into details because many of us here are a little more than amateurs and as myself there are plenty of engineers I wish you tear down a high end turbo+waste gate and expose the technologies involved
Love seeing things torn apart in ways you can actually see how they work! Thanks for the description during disassembly too. More please!
Didnt find a 10mm while looking for that e clip did you?
Lol
Pap works on BMWs now... No 10mm needed. 😁
Tear down everything! Love seeing tear down videos by experts.
I'll never sleep again from so many great youtube creators always posting lol
Who else you watch? I'm bored lol
I thought I was the only weirdo up at 2am every night watching TH-cam lmao 🤣😂
@@imacaryay7628 applied science just uploaded
5:37 . I love that shot, very nice to see you are not taking everything too seriously.
Love your stuff Stephan, keep it up.
Love teardowns of anything automotive oriented thanks for all the awesome content.

μπραβο ρε στεφανε,μου λυθηκαν καποιες αποριες που ειχα χωρις να χαλάσω την τρομπα.
6:45 lol, I've been there too... but my garage floor is nowhere near as clean, took quite a while to find it :D
yes please more tear downs and deep explanations of how stuff works
More teardowns!!!
I love how clean and organized your workshop is. That’s the first thing I look for when I take my car to an Indy mechanic.
The fuel injector, small cc to large cc.
Came here to say this, maybe also include port vs direct injectors
loved the end bit. the blessing of working in a clean shop is finding dropped nuts and bolts
I always press the like button at the beginning because I know I will always be satisfied by the rich content. Thank you for the knowledge Papadakis!
I still can't believe we get to see how your team operates. Please keep content flowing it's awesome.

I don't care what's next. Just keep 'em coming! I love getting down in these weeds, Thanks for taking us along!

Would love to see a shop tour. Tools, cabinets, etc
That brief pause when the C-clip launched itself, I've felt that same feeling before 😆.
Great videos. This is one of the best channels for mechanical geeks like me.
You sir are a great content creator... this is of the channels I can actually rely on to find ENTERTAINING INFORMATIVE videos.
Thanks for sharing Stephan, I would have thought AEM used a brushless motor but guess the engineers have their reasons. Also like your teardown video's keep em' coming!
Thanks for this info. I tapped my aem pump a few times I it came right back to life
I just love how the floor and workplace in general is really clean. So that also you can still find your clip when it decided to go on a field trip
Used those pumps for years, but never took one apart. Very cool. Thanks
Your videos are absolutely amazing: Short and to the point and yet I always learn something. Thank you so much!
Great demo of Hydrostatic/dynamic pumps and their differences
I literally did a how do fuel pumps work search last week, thanks for the tear downs, exactly what I wanted to see :)
Can’t get enough of these videos. The cleanliness of the workshop always makes it for me! 🤤
Best TH-cam channel for car geeks. Great work Steph 😎
This was pretty cool. I just realized how clean your workspace is. It looks so professional.
Yeah those e-clips like to fly off into the ether in my shop LOOOL
yes please! more teardowns for misc parts! It was interesting to see the inside of a pump, although it just turned out to be what I expected. Thanks!
I’ve always admired how clean your shop is! Thanks for the video!
That was the single most imformativ and interesting video I have ever seen.
You're a super knowledgeable man, Mr Papadakis, with an excellent, relaxed presentation style that comes with that knowledge. I enjoy all of your vids, even though I don't need to know any of what you show me as I don't have the £££ to modify or even buy a sweet car. Definitely interesting though. Totally subbed.
Great stuff Steph! From building 1000+ HP racing cars to messing around with the details this is a great channel for engineering enthusiats.
Thanks for the tear-down video. I'm happy to see the structure inside. I wonder what's the common problems that the pump fails.
Loved the video definitely want more of this!
Hard out! Teardowns, tech insights, bring it on Stephan
Great Video ! i really liked it and it was so cool to watch whats going on inside of the fuel pumps. Thanks a lot for that and take care!
Definitely want to see more teardowns. Thoroughly enjoyed it, please do more Mr Papadakis
It's always amazing how much info you pack into such short videos while remaining entertaining. Please keep them coming.
Great video
Once I melted my fuel pomp bracket because I run on 1/4 tank for months and it wasn't enaugh fuel to cool down the pomp.
Tear apart a break master cylinder! Or a shock! Love your videos, thanks for the amazing descriptions and awesome quality.
Yeah I could literally watch/listen to you talk about anything lmao genuinely appreciate the content, thank you 🤙
Always such good videos and you always seem like such a nice, chill guy
This is great info! Would love to see some more videos on stuff like this.
thats real teaching who needs vocational school when you got papadakis and youtube
There's no substitute for hands-on instruction.
Awesome video, you explained so much that I've always wondered about.
I would like to see you year apart a power steering pump, and a rack and pinion to show how steering works on modern cars.
Literally watch every video you release within minutes 🤣
Need ya own tv show with a lab coat on, Papadakis teardowns with the explationations like no other
Thanx for all the awesome tech/info Stephan....always interesting to check out your videos...
Yeah, tear down some more stuff. That was cool and informative.
Fantastic video, do more of this kind of stuff!!
love your videos! make as many as you can and I will watch them all.
The entire electric motor is sorrounded by fuel
Me: 👁👄👁
This shocked me as well. But it makes sense.

Dope video man and yes you should totally dicect more shizzle!
My thirst for random information loves these kinds of videos!
Very informative, I knew nothing and now my mind has exploded
More teardowns please! Thank you.
Another vids from Papadakis? Yes please!
I love this video disassembly. I hope you make other video like this soon
It would be interesting to see a teardown of a shock absorber/damper
Brother I cam watch you work on anything and you make it interesting
Great idea for an episode
Love to see more stuff like this 👍
I love this stuff. please do more teardowns.
I would just love to see more videos from you maybe going over your race weekend each race . Great VIDEOS
Very informative for ppl who cant break apart parts👍
these youtube channels really provide more education than my "institute"
Great info Steph, I find nearly all the older bosch external pumps start leaking at the body o ring but still work. I decrimped a couple of them to replace it, then just use them for fuel transfer
More of this! Good stuff!
Roller vane pump. Thanks for explaining.
Love to see this type of videos
Wow... your workshop is so clean ♡
"AEM was nice enough to flow me a couple of these pumps"
punny
Another flawless video!
Would love to see a single, dual, or maybe even triple damper teardown side by side. I know the triple would cost a lot but one can hope you've got some fully re-buildable ones hangin' out
That was interesting, thanks
Other than missing an explanation of how the pump element of the 044 style pump (like how you explained the reactive turbine pump element works) this was a really cool educational video! 😁
Interesting.
I have disassembled a few pumps for fun and this is what i found.
Bmw E30 318i: roller.
Audi C4 V6: turbine.
MB W210 V6: screws, like the pasta screws.
In spanish the literal translation is endless screw, i don't know if it's just like that.
Your videos are very in depth aswell as very helpful! Excited for every upload
Good stuff. I enjoy all of your videos.
Absolutely love your channel! Such a wealth of information!
You are the best, man! You explain everything very patiently and clear! Thanks 🙏
Man always a pleasure to watch...
