  • We drain and fully clean a Lada gearbox to see how far you can go when the transmission is completely dry inside. The result - further than you might expect.

    Now it is time to fill the engine with antifreeze, fill the cooling system with engine oil, automatic transmission fluid in the brake system, and lastly brake fluid in the auto trans! Let's see how long what lasts then. Lol

      gearbox and brakes would hold for very long, until sealing goes bad because of wrong oil.

      It'll shift rough, blow a ton of steam out the exhaust, and eventually the coolant will boil away if the engine doesn't seize first. That'd be perfect for this channel.

      Indeed it's the 2101 with the 1.2 L 64hp (1970-1983)
      The other models are known as:
      21011 (Lada 1300) 1.3 L 69hp (1974-1983)
      21013 (Lada 1200s) 1.2 L 64hp (1977-1988)
      As far as I know the only way you can distinguish the 2101 from the 21011/21013 is:
      * on 2101 the bumpers have fangs
      * the reversing light is placed under the bumper, instead on 21011/21013 it's placed under the right tailight
      * on 2101 there are no grilles on the pillars
      * on 2101 the reflectors are placed under the tailights, instead on 21011/21013 they're placed on top of them
      * on 2101 the emblem on the front grille is more rounder than the 21011/21013 which is more rectangular
      * on 2101 the steering wheel has chrome rings, but in this video the steering wheel was probably taken from 21011/21013.
      * after 1974 the warning lights on the dashboard became wider on 2101 and after 1979 the color of the speedometer panel became black instead of silver.
      on 2:30 the dashboard can be seen for a part of a second

      That's so true since I've been the second owner to an 87 dodge ram d100 with an A904 3 speed auto. My grandfather and I rebuilt the transmission and made modifications just so the fluid could get to the torque converter hub in Park since that was its main issue from the factory. It has a slant 6 225 which is amazing and runs like brand new after we cleaned and replaced vital parts on that and I painted it red and black

    1 - Fill the engine right to the top with oil and run it, let's see what happens. I was always told to ALWAYS fill the oil to the right mark or it might explode if you over fill it... So give it a try.
    2- Same as above, but with the gearbox all the way full...
    Those Ladas sure are strong!

Opened up the block drilled out the valves inlets a little bit reseated them engine tuned the whole thing a little cleaned it chucked it back inside and then we just send it. A bmw 316i e46 with the block of a tuned 318 e46 and a 316i gearbox so all the ratios was layed out for far less horsepower .. so yea i managed to get past every mot here in germany and never got cought even tho i had now a top speed of 240 kmh and instead of 110 hp we dyno ran it at a 190 with the modified software and new top end.

    A long damn ways in a Ford Ranger.
    A few years ago I bought a Ranger that would pop out of fifth, Never cared much it was a beater and 5th was useless anyway.
    Drove it every day to work 35 miles one way for a few months. Decided to go see a girl I was talking to online, Going to drive from Asheville NC to Lynchburg VA so did an engine oil change and while I had it on a lift I saw the underside of the 5 speed was bone dry, no signs of any leaks.. Made it to Roanoke VA when the trans decided to lock down. When I got it home and took the trans apart it was bone dry inside and out and the teeth of the gears had grenaded. I was amazed it lasted so long. Unlike the long distance relationship that ended that day lmao.

    I personally drove a fiat ducato for work (about from 1990), we lost all the oil due to a leak, and drove all the day approx. 150 km with no oil in the gearbox (of course we didn't know).. only when we started to ear noise we realized that.. and we returned to the base anyway.. the gearbox was wining like a concrete mixer at full load!! Pooor little gearbox!!

      Deep Engineering: They actually have superior build quality. Duplex timing chain not a timing belt...this is just the beginning the more you delve the more delight you find...case hardened components like valves, heat-treated springs, metal clips and tabs...we use plastic wherever we can in the west. Lada does too, to be fair but not as much. I actually had a list naming 101 far superior items in a Russian Lada than a Western Ford Mondeo. BTW, I drive a South Korean KIA Optima 3, ISG 1.7TD. It has superior deep engineering, western cars have a thing called "kerbside beauty" meaning they look fabulous from the kerbside but the deep engineering is shit. A Russian built Lada has no kerbside beauty but has superior deep engineering. You dig?

    in the late 90's my buddy had a beater '86 Jetta with a 5spd. he had it for about 5 years and near the end he had to have the steering rack replaced because it was worn out. During the repair, the mechanic asked him a funny question... "Does your 5th gear pop out on the highway". My buddy said yup, but it was doing it since I got the car about 5 years ago. The mechanic said to him, do you know you've been driving without any oil in your gearbox, because your axle seals are shot, and the 5th gear popping out is a tell-tale symptom. The mechanic replaced the seals and filled the gearbox with oil, and my buddy drove the car for another year without issue until it was wrecked in an accident.
    Moral of the story? Who knows how many kilometers were done without oil in the gearbox, my fried put about 60,000km on it before the axle seals were fixed. VW made some good stuff in the 80's.

    the blue hue of steel appears around 300-350°C; dark blue a little less, near 260-280°C (that's on hardened steel; color is used as a visual reference guide when forging steel and "tempering" it after hardening. Varies a bit with different alloys)

    I drove around on an empty gear box for 3 years. I had a tranny rebuilt in a shop. They never even put any oil in it before reinstalling it. I always thought I was just bad at shifting gears. When it finally failed, I opened the cover on it and it was full of shavings, not one drop of oil, no sludge, just rainbow colored shavings and really messed up gears. This was in a 1966 Ford F-250, had the granny low tranny. Drove probably about 50,000-70,000 miles with no oil in the gear box.

  • @edwardcalvert

    I had it happen where in 1999 I had the stick shift transmission on my Chevy serviced and I didn't realize it until years later. The shop used the wrong lubricant and it all boiled dry. The transmission began making whirring and whining noises. After having another shop replace the lubricant I put this stuff called X treme Friction Fighter in. It quieted the transmission but a few years later, the transmission failed and had to be replaced. This was interesting because I see an illustration of possibly how the transmission in my Chevy might have failed if I had done nothing.

    Procedure:
    • put test car into its highest gear
    • attempt to burn rubber (or to even get the car to move out of its own shadow)
    Prediction:
    unhappy clutch as evidenced by acrid odor emanating from the "clutch region"
    Extensions:
    • repeat experiment with a Volga
    • repeat experiment with a Zaporozhets 968
    • repeat experiment with a BMW
    • repeat experiment with a Camry
