thanks for sharing this! I just bought a DS23 and will have to learn its quirks to maintain her, although I dont think I'll ever go as far as removing the whole engine, fortunately, she is in good shape
Wow! I'm impressed by the electric ratchet! Time saving tool, although too big in tight places. Nevertheless, quite useful on several, accessible places!
fun fact andre citroen was a dutch man called andre limoenman (lemonman) he changed his name to citroen becouse the french did not understand his original name citroen means lemon in dutch but to make it even more understandable for the french he had the umlaut be placed on the e
yorrickwi : votre explication concernant son véritable nom limoenman me semble " FANTAISISTE, CURIEUX, ET ÉTRANGE. ..! " en FRANCE , je n'ai jamais entendu une telle version...
@@gil7555 He was a dutch Jew and so the derival of his name is plausible! Bien sûr, monsieur Citroën d'appelai Lemon quelque chose. Je ne parle pas le néerlandais, donc je ne connais pas son nom exact, mais l'histoire est bien connue!
Thanks for the video! I own a '64 DS-19, the engine is completely ruined and blocked by rust... But i also own a '66 ID-19 which seems to have an engine that could be repaired and put to the DS. Both cars haven't been running since early 80's i think and i guess that removing its engines, fixing one of them, putting it again to the DS, reconvert it to LHM (now it seems to be LHS) is gonna be an extremely hard and expensive work, what do you think? My dream is doing it, but i don't know if i realli can, which makes me feel extremely sad when i think about it....
@@echan275 Thanks for your interest E Chan! Sadly I have to say that I was cheated many times trying to buy a good engine for the car, ending by loosing quite some money and I got tired of trying... I gave away the '66 and kept the '64 which I still have, untouched since then. And I decided to change project. I Imported a '58 Plymouth from USA and now, finishing new interiors and waiting for white wall tyres and it'll be done. I've thought to sell the '64 DS but I feel bad about it, like I could still fix it... But I don't know... We'll see...
