If theres anything Ive learned over the years watching this channel... the Lada is one of the most versatile, non-caring, reliable vehicles in existence
Or NOT
they do seem rather durable!
@@anjoLas yes
The Russian old Volvo haha
@@qwerrrz202 damn.... volvo wagons are actual tanks!
Starting the engine with the belt around the tire was great
They started the engine with a strap on the wheel and stopped the car with a starter motor 🤣
Old trick bro. Get an engine with a double harmonic balancer pulley and you can start an Auto the same way from the engine
@@tommiraeko8541 what?? Explain it... Wanna learn 😅
That was freaking brilliant, i legit thought they were going to push it
Hey Guys,
Garage 54 is one of my favorite automotive youtube channels, you continue to make great content!
I know the world is a little crazy right now... I know that a world leader does not represent the entire population of a country, I enjoy the genuine humor and good times you guys offer!
I'm a huge fan from the USA, I am always going to support this channel and hope the best for you!
Stay Safe Guys!
Same here. From Michigan.
Same here. From Indiana
Hell ya Russia for the win
Same here from New Zealand
@@TheGoodMedicine I’m right behind Garage 54, and politics should not come into what is a non-political channel. However, Russia for the win? Seriously?
I'd like to see them put a hand crank on a modern car.
Good idea
They should put a hand crank on a locked engine and see if they can spin the engine.
Trying to imagine a Golf or Toyota Corolla with a hand crank... 🤣
@@emilschw8924 what about a mustang lol, imagine trying to start that with a crank.
For a while I owned a '66 Ford F100 pickup truck that I kept in the employee lot at Orlando International Airport. It was painted in 7 very nice shades of latex house paint, complete with a smiley face on the doors...
Happy Truck!
In any case, I got in it one day and as I was pulling out of a space in the lot the brake pedal went to the floor. A leaking rear cylinder caused this. It finally blew out and I was stuck at the airport. Or so it seems...
The truck had a toolbox in back,and there was a bottle of gear oil in it; Oh what the hell I said, and poured the gear oil into the master cylinder. It worked! Interestingly, the brake pedal was VERY hard, and kind of slow, but it did the job to get me the three miles home. I replaced the cylinder the next day and cleaned out the whole system, which showed no signs of problems at all. Two years later the brakes worked just fine when I finally sold the old beast to a friend in Orlando; He still has it~
At rate Garage 54 goes through Lada's, it's only matter of time before there are none left in Russia.😂
Considering most of Russia's car population is probably Ladas, I would not be surprised if they never run out.
That was hilarious attempt to start, “let’s just push it”. I would definitely park that thing on a hill
This is exactly what i was asking to see, thank you and thank you for your hard work!
I wanna see milk in the differential!
Whole milk has a thin layer of fat, its not the same viscosity as gear oil, but i'm curious what would happen to the gears! You have never used milk on a video before and it isn't like water or soda.
Thanks garage54 for all the videos you make!
Milk or buttermilk! Would be cool to see how they react.
Heavy cream and lard
And add self rising flour and biscuits in the rear.
I bet it would make butter lol
@@dennisford2000 Haha that would be funny, you would probably notice a slight HP reduction in that case 🤣
Hi, no matter whats going on in the would I still love you channel, I am a motor machinic from UK Living in New Zealand, 50 years ago when I was an apprentice my old boss told me if I ever run out of brake fluid to use Milk! full cream if I could, as it is very close to the make up of brake fluid, I never tried it, give it a GO! all the best Geoff.
Once it spoils and curdles it wouldn't bare any resemblance to brake fluid. Your boss sounds like a guy that would add sawdust to a gearbox to make it shift better
My old boss told me that if I ever ran out of milk for my corn flakes, use brake fluid, as it is very close to the make up of milk.
U.S.A. LOVES GARAGE 54 ...
I had no idea they still made crank handles! Awesome demonstration on how fun these would be!!! Thanks for the show!
That was because they expected the battery to go flat in the cold siberian summers. I imagine hand cranking it in subzero temperature was pretty torturous.
that would be a rough way to start your day, let alone your car!!
I once blew a brake line over 200 miles from home, limped as far as I could until I lost all brakes due to a single reservoir mastercylinder.
I crimped the rear line off, and luckily had a quart of ATF behind the seat, i filled it pumped the crap out of it got a little pressure and drove home.
Had to pump the petal three times before giving it the final press to stop. But it got me home, saved a tow/shop bill.
ATF in a brake system?!
you see thats a good video, what other fluids will work where. I have atf and windshield wash in my car. What do those do decent enough?
@@skylined5534 Uh-huh, Flushed the entire brake system 4 times after repairing the broken line, and drove the vehicle for another 2 years lol
i love crank start cars. Bring them back :DDD
How about putting airbags into the tyres and detonating them while driving at the track? Or perhaps detonating an airbag in the sump of a running engine? Keep up the great work!
they did do an episode on air bags for body work.
Yes already did it
I'm glad this channel we are still able to watch it during war
Ladas are probably some of the best cars you can buy . They are indestructible
They are also notoriously difficult to keep on the road when cornering .... You easily end up in a ditch.
Not if your suspension is maintained. I corner at 120km 70mph in the mountainpasses here in Bulgaristan with my Lada Estate, and face no problems with handling (even though we got potholes so big they lead straight to China). Ofcourse you cant expect a Lada to turn corners like a modern car though - first its a 60s design, and secondly its suspension is pretty soft, and is 5 santimeters higher than the original Fiat124.
Wait so it has power seats yet a hand-crank starter???
That sucks, there goes all my hopes to have Cola in my motorcycle and when thirsty I would open the cap and start drinking it 😭
My dad had a zsiguli ( lada) in Hungary for 12 yrs.... we never had problem with it except once timing chain needed to be tighten up...
3:19 really clever way to start a car😍👌
Try making a lada engine run in the opposite direction, swap exhause and intake and also the cams and what else and try to fire it up turning the other way, would be pretty interesting driving around in reverse starting would also be interesting and also what would happen when you are coasting and than switching into a forward gear turning the engine backwards
That Makita probably has more Micro-Chips than the Lada.
One of my mates used neat Fairy washing up liquid on his FS1E Yamaha. It slowed the fizzy down but was spongier than the rear worn drum. NOT ADVISED lol
That interior was nice, no cap.
Any experiments with coke are 107 percent fun 🤩
Im Rockso the clown and I used to do cccoooocccain!
@@shawnstillman736 ohhh yeeaah😆😆😆
If nothing else, it probably would clean/flush out the system. New Cola is nothing like the old, old Cola would clean coins make them shine like new.
Esse lada meu tio teve um desse aqui em Sorocaba SP
Hey !!!! The tow strap wheel start !!!! ...done that a thousand times on broken snowmobiles but on a car !!! Yes !!!! Hahaha 👑 !!! ...I will shock friends when this situation comes up !! Thanks for the Fun !!!
I used to use cooking oil for break fluid and power steering. Works perfect.
over time even in sealed conditions, it breaks down since it's organic, turns into a sludge, and stays that way even at heat. Hope you change it from time to time before it turns into a jello!
@@dimitar4y the real problem is probably the low boiling point
@@TomAlter1000 oh shut up, over 40% of the human population is illiterate, and 99% of all people believe in the obvious lies mainstream media says.
@@dimitar4y well said D Hristov. 👍. And mainstream media is deffo filtered and they show you what they want you to belive. I'm not brainwashed either like most the world is.
@@purplediesel7392 the police are a hypocrisy that people want to be safe, but also not - because they leave it to others. And the police don't work for your safety, they work for the elite. When's the last time a cop busted an obviously corrupt politician? If you go and shoot an insane world leader, the po po will be there to stop you.
3:17 I’ve never would of thought I would see that lol
An older guy I know had to do this as all of his brake fluid was gone, it got him to a shop safely enough, but the entire braking system was junk after that
And all he had to do was use ANY petro oil, then flush it after the repair. Could've used baby oil LOL
Why not just use cooking oil or something.
I reckon the gasses in the cola were coming out of solution, filling the system with air
Essentially the same problem as the Coke-tire inflation where the gas kept returning to its liquid phase (partially). -You might be on to something.
Starting a car with a cargo strap! Bad ass man!
You should try replacing break fluid with sunflower oil
I want to buy a Lada after watching all these videos. I have ridden in a Lada once when I went to Ukraine years ago, but the guy didn't let me drive it. I think he assumed I was joking :(
That model of lada has been made with leather seats etc. quite proper accessories. Those are really rare anywhere.
I hope that person that said pop would work for brake fluid that replied to my comment to another comment about using pop for brake fluid sees this.
Did you use POP3 or POP4 cola ?
Everything goes better with a Coke, it doesn’t stop better.
Hello, greetings from Argentina, sometime in the past I heard that instead of brake fluid they used methyl alcohol. maybe you can try that
What’s that things mpg? I’d drive tf outta it ever day n go to work
daam i wonder what happened to the spring bucket @1:52 ..strange
Engine oil as braking fluid, given that Citroen used mineral oil in its braking systems for many years. :)
Fill the, sump, radiator, brake reservoir, and diffs with straight ethenol and run the engine untill it's hot.
It's gonna work
Finally a good use for Coca-Cola
Those seats look like they came out of a lexus
Fun to watch thanks!
I like the fact, that the assistant is trying to stop the car with starter ;D
Never tried but I heard from my grandfather that in the old times when you run out of brake fluid you just milked a cow down the road and that milk(from cow not processed) work just fine as a brake fluid. 🤷♂️
No.
This Lada looks interesting inside a Lada long Limousine was really good working and good looking
You guys are so awesome!
Hold on, it's got power seats but hand crank to start🤣🤣🤣🤣
lol u can feel one little tiny bubble, of course its not goin to work while carbonated, especially
Brake fluid performance is measured by its resistance to boiling. It is also hydroscopic and absorbs moisture from the air causing it to go bad. Either way trying to use water or any low boiling point fluid in a brake system is about the dumbest idea EVER....
Brake-a-cola not stop you!
Vlaaad. I dont know if you missed it but the keys are in the ignitionlock 😂😂
Try the Cuban method.
Alcohol
Shampoo
Brown sugar.
Apparently it works
there was a jeremy clarkson show from the 90s where he went to cuba, and they were making brake fluid out of shampoo
Like you to test the soapy water brake fluid and how soapy do you have to get it to work
Thanks
years ago my mate filled his brake reservoir with epoxy resin, mistaken it fot the brake fluid, to be fair they were both yellow tins, he never had any leaking cylinders.
I guess a Lada can do anything and is next to impossible to destroy. You could probably run the thing on orange juice and replace the oil with pancake syrup and it'd keep going.
They should make a video on replacing a starter motor with a crank
Why? You get the exact same thing....
@@-never-gonna-give-you-up- would be an interesting process to see some thing are not as simple as they seem
Love this so much! Any fluid is non compressible by nature,if the coke was completely flat and the system was pressure or vacuum blead it would work for sure.
All matter is compressible, even liquids. If they were incompressible then the speed of sound would be infinite
@@emoryjenkins6481 are we talking about time travel and the space time continuum? Is this back to the future or are we working on cars here? Yes,of course even black matter is compressible,when you find some black matter to do your compression tests on let me know but at the moment,the amount of pressure coming from the master cylinder will likely not compress coke a cola any more then it would brake fluid,just sayin,that’s all.
@@natedogg1238 the reason people bleed brakes is to remove moisture that the brake fluid collects because the water compresses more than the fluid and makes the pedal spongey
@@bernie232 I’m sorry…what?? Wow,ok..I’m just gonna roll with this..but I have one question,just one..and as a licensed mechanic I just need to know….if your removing “water” then why is brake fluid hydroscopic?? Bottom line,if it doesn’t push past the seals and it has no air,it will work.
@@natedogg1238 brake fluid is hydroscopic, not by design. The fluid absorbs moisture from the atmosphere and ends up building up at the calipers causing rust and a spongey pedal feel. If you have ever bled an old brake system with old brake fluid that has moisture in it you would know exactly the effect it has.
Name of the song at 1:38 ?
These guys need to make an 8 cilinder subaru boxer engine with 2 ej25s
It’ll work for a few times but then stop working, but it’s acidic so over time it will rust everything
Coca-Cola in. Radiator
Thanks guy yeah i kind of thought would not work at all but heck it was entertaining anyway. Just to see someone try it.
Those seats look like they came from a Volvo PII
Ive used vegetable oil to make brakes work to get them to a scrapyard before
You should try home made cuban break fluid
Why is the garage smaller?
The Lada is the original Honda .
Dishwashing detergent in the brake system does anything?
Informative video. I like it. Thanks for sharing Garage 54.
love the show, it proves you can do anything to a Лада, Пока
They have to use coke due to sanctions... hahaha
Is it possible to make a cross plane crank on an old Lada engine?
I've heard Turpentine is supposed to work, dunno if that's true.
Mad love to you guys, this channel is one of my favourites. I hope TH-cam doesn't demonetize you or worse just for being Russian, that'd really suck.
Yo, is that interior out of a Mark 4 Jetta/Bora? It looks like it.
Change it to maple syrup, even with shaking there’s too much air in the system.
Hard case having a super nice modern seating setup and a hand crank....suppose ya want somewhere nice to sit after giving up winding her over by hand👌🤣
Super greatings from hollandia
And now we know.
Free valve! Lada motor with free valve upgrade!
Ultimate MAD LAD 😂
What about motor oil in the break system
Maybe next time they do that experiment they use cooking oil!😂
I have a co-worker who has to top his clutch off with brake fluid weekly.
I'll send him a link to the vid
I am convinced that is kia sorento interior iv had 2 and it looks exactly the samw
Engine oil as brake fluid?
converting hydraulic brakes to air brakes
Holy Moly ! Coka Colon
cola has CO2 dissolved in it which as with any gas makes for bad hydraulic fluid because it is compressible.
See how high you can get a lada engine to rev to, double valve springs, lightened flywheel, nitrous etc
Didn't know that these cars were so outdated that they still used hand cranks in the 1970 (80s?)😐
Transmission fluid in the brakes or gear oil
Should have used the boxed syrup concentrate instead, less or no water.
