That pipe unblocking was impressive to say the least! 😂

Hi Baz. Really enjoying the channel and content. Don't envy anyone in the motor trade these days, cars are becoming more and more complicated and difficult to work on! When i started as a mechanic back in 1980 cars were so simple! Plugs, points, condenser etc, relatively easy to diagnose and fix any car back in the day. Glad I got out when I did, been retired 3 years now. Don't miss the trade one bit! Keep up the good work!!

I assume it's not just me that finds Baz's calm way of working, really relaxing to watch (certainly more relaxed then I'm working on my own cars) 🤣

I've done a lot of work on my wife's Mini over the years. She loves the car, it handles well and they are stylish. All I would say, is that I don't find the build quality that good - things often break when you're doing a job and cause delays and trips to the Mini parts department! 😄

Top tip, take the pcl connector out of your air blower and screw it into the pipe and put airline straight to it. Same thread and works a treat

He swears off camera. We all swear. It's stress relief. As a home mechanic, no better feeling than when a bolt just frees itself. No worse than when you feel a bolt rounding off...

ive found putting a smear of hylomar blue on gaskets keeps them in place while fitting

Amazing diagnostics & repairs...Only question I have: since you replaced so many gaskets, washers & bolts...Why not just replace the small pipe which was clogged...?
@bazmeredith
Ай бұрын
A gasket is a gasket and they need replacing when removed... The pipe is a pipe and is now clear if I had any doubt I would have replaced it, I agree what you're saying and it's a good point

Mates a main dealer mech on these - says that banjo bolt always carks - they now leave it on & use fire/pokey pokey to avoid the ballache of removing the manifold. Renaults do the exact same.,

@@bazmeredith Personally I hit the banjo with a blowtorch before trying to remove it & have had great luck wiggling them back & forth gently before winding out. I have the time to do that tho - his place is always manic so they do the least risky/fastest fix every time. Plus they don't really care, lol, so once it's vaguely unblocked, they send it. :-)

Great video showing the complexities of working on a Mini. Certainly not for ramps on the drive methinks! The OBD Computer is certainly a must for working on modern cars. Main dealers are minting it on service for sure . 👍

Top work as always baz 👍 could i just get away with using a blow torch to unblock pipe? Or do you have to get it oxy acetalyne hot? Cheers 🤙
