My old man is nearly 80... But hearing Chris talking is like listening to him over the years. Some blokes just know shit and how it works... These people make the world go round. So much respect. 💓
Perfectly explained Chris!👍 Think there's only one other way you could show what happens is one of those cross sectional model engines that are in some musuems.
Another reason the valves survive is, they go straight up and down in the head and are not mounted at an angle, that's what usually guarantees bent valves. Nice one guys 👍🏼
Chris why do you make any problem that you guy's come across look so easy to rectify. Bearing in mind this comes from some one who has very basic knowledge of how an engine works. It's your knowledge of anything mechanical look so easy and makes me love the videos that you and Rob do stay lucky and healthy looking forward to the next one 😊 as usual.
I've been a subscriber since the very early days when Chris would have absolutely nothing to do with being on camera! So much so that i wondered if he was fully onboard with the idea of TH-cam. Such a change (for the better) :-)
A van with motor work performed by Chris. Just came in from feeding the horses and riding a 4 wheeler down to the pond and I thought my night couldn't get much better. Thank you guys, it makes working 12 days in a row worthwhile.
Hello Rob and Chris, great video as always, but a special shout out to Chris for the time he took to explain what he was doing and how the damage may have been caused, with the help of a diagram- quality. Thank you for taking the time to upload another video. Ged
Chris saying that the camshaft had had a clump reminded me of my mum- I’m 55 and on more than one occasion she has said to me “you’re not too old for a clump!”😂😂😂 brilliant video guys- the time goes too quickly watching them ,thanks 👍👍👍👍👍
Ford Tiger Diesel engine . Built in Dagenham engine plant . Great to hear Chris doing more talking . Very interesting . Another great video guys . Keep em coming ......
Fantastic tutorial Chris, just the best at explaining engine damage !! Please explain at some point what happens to an engine if you don't change the oil for a while !!! Fantastic video yet again guys , thankyou so much for the co part auction, the best !!
Excellent video for me .. own a 2011 Peugeot Partner for micro camping which had under 20,000 miles on it. First job I had done on it was the cam belt and water pump due to its age and not the mileage done. Very useful to know about the cam/followers should anything ever happen to mine (here's hoping it doesn't). Thank you once again, you have my continued support on the channel.
Thanks Chris for talking us through why there's possibly not too much engine damage in this situation. Very informative and interesting even for us non mechanical folks!
For someone without engine knowledge, this was a great drawing for me. Always good to hear Chris's voice. Straightforward, also clear for non-motor mechanics.
Liked as always. I watched half before work, and half now I’m home. Someone once said to me, if you can draw a perfect circle, you can draw anything. Chris did a perfect description, and I’m giving him 9 out of 10 for the diagram 😂
Thanks guys, and thanks Chris - love it when you share your knowledge. I am not a mechanic, but totally understood your explanation and found it very interesting - every day is a school day!
Great video. I enjoyed the explanation from Chris about the cam. I must admit I was dubious about interference fit cam lobes, but I'm coming round to the idea, as they don't destroy the engine.
Great explanation Chris, now i get it, brilliant, you are some mechanic, you should be a teacher at a local college with you know how. Money in that van guys. Really enjoyed that tutorial, i always wondered how that can cause such damage.
An interesting vlog gents, good to see that the engine was designed to avoid severe damage from a cam belt issue, not sure an eco boost would cope quite so well.
For anyone who isn't mechanically minded they was a good explanation Chris. It is great that many engines have this sort of fail-safe mechanism now, a lot cheaper on the pocket. Thanks again Rob and Chris for another great video. I hope you have a good weekend, oh and be careful with the heatwave Gents. 🌞👍👍
I actually slowed the frames down and enjoyed Chris working on the engine I really enjoyed watching the master at work. Thanks for the lesson and a very informative video Chris And Rob Tom
I really really love the content at the moment chaps. It's great Chris doing his thing too. I'd really recommend get a Rode Wireless Go 2 and the SC15 Cable to connect the receiver into your iPhone. You'd both have a microphone pack that you could clip on your shirts and the sound will be so good. 👍
Hi all well what have I become I have worked all my life up to 66 years old now in my 70s. Lots of jobs all in engineering for a Apprentice to General manager and all the jobs in between. But now the high Point of my week is what are Rob and Chris up to 3 times a week. Keep it up your channel is Brilliant.
Rob, it is always nice to see growth in peoples character. You both integrate your expertise and experience so that 1+1=3! We are delighted to see Chris’s extending his “presenter“ development to include careful technical explanations So good to see and informative to boot! Well done to you both. We enjoyed a three month stay on Bosham Hoe some years ago and frequently visited friends in Birdham and Chichester. It is indeed a delightful area. Your pickup stirred fond memories of old friends and nice times. Philip 🇳🇿
Chris is among the most talented all rounders on youTube... surprised he's not yet been picked up by Discovery/Velocity etc... to do TV work. He's really really good.
Chris your explanation made perfect sense to me, and trust me that is a huge compliment (yes I'm basically an idiot), but I understood everything you said. It is great to see you taking the lead sometimes. Thank you again both of you, like many others I thoroughly enjoyed it. 👍👍
Great to see kriss doing a lot more to the camera but guys can I just say thanks for all you do my nephew has started as an apprentice and the likes of this video he watches over and over and is learning so much and he loves the channel he never misses a video
Doh! so close...but understand you need to secure new project in compound! even on a 12 plate will still make for a sort after van! well done have been watching you guys progress most tea times great no bullsh*t videos,practical and entertaining!
He is a master at work, great to watch. Well impressed with his sketch and explanation, our make. a Great lecturer. Hats off to you Rob with your purchases. Cheers guys. 👍👍👍👍
Yet again the master demonstrates that what could be an expensive repair is dealt with in his knowledgeable manner. yes the valves were cracked so the saying goes Crack on well done
That was absolutely brilliant Chris and Rob - the way Chris described what went wrong, along with the diagram was superb. Certainly a full days work in anybody’s book. Such interesting content you are both jointly putting out, it sure makes for some excellent viewing.
Chichester is absolutely gorgeous - been there loved it. Chris can probably do the top off one of those engines in his sleep ! The only problem with this is if too many of the "opposition" watch these vlogs they will get wise to how straightforward a repair this can be and your supply of nice cheap vans could dry up lol
maybe you add some clarification here! when you install the new camshaft and bearing caps, you are opening some of the valves. so the camshaft has to installed in proper time relative to the crank.
Crankshaft is positioned 90degrees past tdc so all pistons sit at half way to enable fitting/ clamping down of the camshaft. New belt is also fitted at 90 degrees past tdc to enable rotation of the camshaft to the correct position and avoid piston to valve contact.
@@sruk got it, gets more complicated with a v6 or v8!. i haven't changed a timing belt since my 1980's volvo which was noninterference, very simple back them!
Great video, masterclass tutorial from Chris on the workings of the valve gear. Another excellent vehicle saved for someone’s business to prosper. Keep them coming guys👍🇺🇸
A very interesting video lads. Chris taking it to another level with his explanation and diagram. With Rob’s skill in buying projects finding parts this really is the dream team. I watch a couple of other car repair channels which I enjoy but you guys really are in a different league. Have a great weekend lads.
Another cracking video and so so informative as to how you could be fooled into scrapping a good vehicle because of ignorance by the break down service or lack of knowledge. Rob you must appreciate how fortunate to have a partner in business like Mr magic Chris. I am sure that you both have your skill base and to see you complement each other is a joy to watch, The co part video was brilliant and to get access to show your loyal followers speaks volumes in how you are esteemed. Keep the Faith 👍🇬🇧LondonPaul.
I really enjoyed that video and just think you could not get chris on video a few years back now he's videoing narrating and starring in them and he's drawing us pictures what more do we want great stuff can't wait see the new project
Great video chaps!
Thank you buddy very much appreciated I’ll get our coffee Monday morning with that 👍
@@sruk no problem great videos and deserves appreciation 👍
💯💯💯👌👌👌👍👍👍
Chris talking to camera is great, very knowledgeable!
Very good explanation
My old man is nearly 80... But hearing Chris talking is like listening to him over the years. Some blokes just know shit and how it works... These people make the world go round. So much respect. 💓
Nice one Chris, really well explained with your diagram. Much easier to make sense of the failure with the drawing. Keep up the good work guys.
Perfectly explained Chris!👍

Remember when Chris wasn’t interested in speaking on camera?
I’m so glad he’s confident now, it’s really great to get a little bit of your knowledge.
I've been a subscriber since the very early days when Chris would have absolutely nothing to do with being on camera! So much so that i wondered if he was fully onboard with the idea of TH-cam. Such a change (for the better) :-)
I'd be happy being half as knowledgeable as Chris the bloke is an absolute legend.
A van with motor work performed by Chris. Just came in from feeding the horses and riding a 4 wheeler down to the pond and I thought my night couldn't get much better. Thank you guys, it makes working 12 days in a row worthwhile.
Well explained Chris, I wondered why no piston and valve damage, just shows how important it is change the water pump when changing the cam belt.
Hello Rob and Chris, great video as always, but a special shout out to Chris for the time he took to explain what he was doing and how the damage may have been caused, with the help of a diagram- quality.
Thank you for taking the time to upload another video. Ged
Chris has an incredible amount of knowledge on motors
Chris saying that the camshaft had had a clump reminded me of my mum- I’m 55 and on more than one occasion she has said to me “you’re not too old for a clump!”😂😂😂 brilliant video guys- the time goes too quickly watching them ,thanks 👍👍👍👍👍
Haha a clump round the ear ‘ole
Chris, you would do very well as a tutor teaching young apprentices, nice, clear explanations and a simple drawing is literally all that is required.
Ford Tiger Diesel engine . Built in Dagenham engine plant . Great to hear Chris doing more talking . Very interesting . Another great video guys . Keep em coming ......
brilliant great to see Chris really coming into his own co presenting these videos what a team
loved Chris's explanation - perhaps next time he could cover the job of the hydrollic tappets a bit more
Fantastic tutorial Chris, just the best at explaining engine damage !!
Please explain at some point what happens to an engine if you don't change the oil for a while !!!

I love when Chris gives a master class. You both explain things so well and easy even this old accountant can understand them. Great video as always!
Being an old accountant you love the fact that there’s not much to spend out on the repair LOL 😂
Thanks Chris for talking us through why there's possibly not too much engine damage in this situation. Very informative and interesting even for us non mechanical folks!
For someone without engine knowledge, this was a great drawing for me. Always good to hear Chris's voice. Straightforward, also clear for non-motor mechanics.
Loved the diagram, it makes sense now
Chris is like that good school teacher i never had!
Great work , love how Chris is getting so much better when filming by himself :)
Very concise explanation by Chris. Great job.
Liked as always. I watched half before work, and half now I’m home. Someone once said to me, if you can draw a perfect circle, you can draw anything. Chris did a perfect description, and I’m giving him 9 out of 10 for the diagram 😂

Great video guys really enjoyed that and Chris’s diagram and explanation was top notch absolutely great and very clear.
Another fabulous video Lads, Chris's diagram and explanation was really first class.
Thanks.
Great video. I enjoyed the explanation from Chris about the cam. I must admit I was dubious about interference fit cam lobes, but I'm coming round to the idea, as they don't destroy the engine.
Great description of how the damage occurs Chris.
Chris is pure spetznaz when it comes to repairs and explanations
Chris's tech talk interludes are brilliant. Reminded of the Fuzz Townsend bits in Car SOS. Adds to the already great vids. Thanks, both.
Cheers guys for all your great work and entertainment!
great explanation from Chris about what happens when the cam belt goes, have a great weekend guys and thank you for the upload
Great explanation Chris, now i get it, brilliant, you are some mechanic, you should be a teacher at a local college with you know how. Money in that van guys. Really enjoyed that tutorial, i always wondered how that can cause such damage.
Tech Time with Chris....precise and very informative.
Well done Chris on the tutorial for those that are not so mechanically minded.
That was a very clear explaination of the damage to the top end of that engine, thanks Chris.
Chris manages to explain these issues in such a simplistic way, good on you. 👍
An interesting vlog gents, good to see that the engine was designed to avoid severe damage from a cam belt issue, not sure an eco boost would cope quite so well.
What ever happened to the old Chris this new 1 is a natural at the camera and voice over. Dream team.
For anyone who isn't mechanically minded they was a good explanation Chris. It is great that many engines have this sort of fail-safe mechanism now, a lot cheaper on the pocket.

A treat to see Chris working at his best.
what a brilliant description of interference damage . nice one Chris
I really really love the content at the moment chaps. It's great Chris doing his thing too.

Thanks for the explanation Chris, very informative.
Brilliant with the drawings! Thank you Chris
Beautifully explained Chris. Wish all mechanics would do the same.
I love hearing Chris explain these things and the drawings help too !
I look forward to each and every video !
Great explanation Chris
Thank you Mr Chris, a great explanation and Mr Rob is great as usual.
Hi rob & chris this channel should be a tv program it is better than what they show on there now you two are stars
How much did the C63 sell for? You mentioned it but was only the porker and the camper van
Nice diagram Chris, cheers for the explanation
Really enjoyed Chris's explanation of the failure, makes sense. Great video as always. Have a good weekend guys.
Just love a mechanical repair,I have also done six of these it's very rewarding bringing an engine back too life
Chris your explanation made perfect sense to me, and trust me that is a huge compliment (yes I'm basically an idiot), but I understood everything you said. It is great to see you taking the lead sometimes. Thank you again both of you, like many others I thoroughly enjoyed it. 👍👍

Super job Chris a very good explanation. Boy you can't half work to that new music!😚. Loved to heard it running, anyway enjoy your weekend guys, 😎👍
Really well explained chris, loved it
Great video and explanation. You make this kind of engine surgery look so easy and effortless.
Doh! so close...but understand you need to secure new project in compound! even on a 12 plate will still make for a sort after van! well done have been watching you guys progress most tea times great no bullsh*t videos,practical and entertaining!
The drawing made this video. Thank you for that addition Chris.
He is a master at work, great to watch. Well impressed with his sketch and explanation, our make. a Great lecturer. Hats off to you Rob with your purchases. Cheers guys. 👍👍👍👍
Plenty of "followers" to this channel, but none are bent out of shape. Good work guys.
Chris is a mechanical genius. Great video

I like the way the engine works, don’t no if it’s by design but how good is it, just cam shaft and followers
That is great Chris explaining the issue a bit more indepth, thanks Chris
Chichester is absolutely gorgeous - been there loved it.
Chris can probably do the top off one of those engines in his sleep ! The only problem with this is if too many of the "opposition" watch these vlogs they will get wise to how straightforward a repair this can be and your supply of nice cheap vans could dry up lol
you may not be rembrandt, but the picture was the best way of explaining it Kudos to you :) :)
Nice description Chris, very interesting.every Day is a learning Day,thanks for that!
Chris is the master at this cannot wait for the next video on the van well done guy’s.
Have watched this channel for years. Has become part of the family.

Makes perfect sense now with the diagram from Chris Van Gough. Perfect.
Looks like it's in pretty good shape for it's age and I really enjoyed the diagram and explanation. Thanks Chris
Really enjoyed Chris' explanation of what happens when belt water pump fails
loved Chris's explanation of the engine
Great video, masterclass tutorial from Chris on the workings of the valve gear. Another excellent vehicle saved for someone’s business to prosper. Keep them coming guys👍🇺🇸

Great video again guys, Chris's explanation of the engine failure was brilliant. Love your videos
Superb video, great explanation for the failure, thanks Chris and Rob👍🏻
Chris.... you the man !! Perfectly explained 👌
Great work Chris . Nice that you explained the issues that go wrong when a belt goes for those that dont know.
