so sweet dude...this is what man were made for...exploring and cruising...fixing cars with basic tools available, beer and bbq...and off course punani as well ayeee....
Qaz 300 -That engine had a soft metal head gasket, they didn't need to be ultra meticolous refacing the block or head, the soft metal gasket is designed to conform to the irregularities Terminchiator - you would be referring to a skim and a chim - £80's worth of work at any good local garage in the UK - TheBuffaloeye - they would do just fine based on that video clip
they probably already knew it was going out. if the headgasket was split that bad down the middle, the head will most likely need machining however a new headgasket will get them home.
@justinjobrien Packing an extra gasket is a no brainer If you are travlling in a country where the next civilization is 400 miles away and you don't know if you gonna meet any human beings for days. I am from Mongolia also and you would be amazed of what our drivers take with them for the open road. Clutch disks, drive shaft heads, pads , gaskets, 2-3 spare tires etc. You will not survive with a tire change kit and a small tool kit.
im changing the head gasket on my suburban right now. but to do that, even on a straight six, in the middle of no where is super cool. well back to work.
if anything, its a good example of how NOT to replace a headgasket. Im guessing by the fact that they just 'happened' to have one handy that it was blowing head gaskets left, right, and center. The head gaskets require a good bit of attention to detail and proper installation and prepwork to function properly and not blow out.
wow. they seriously put gasket sealer on a head gasket thought i saw it all. probably why it keeps blowing. but still props even with it being a inline motor(way easier).
With russian cars ad trucks, every mongolian drivers expected to be good mechanics too. If you couldn't fix the car in the middle of the countryside especially in winter time that was a certain death. I heard a story of a driver who survived 6 days by burning a tire a day not to freeze, and on the last day by pure luck he was saved by a passing truck driver.
Assuming that at the beginning when it said 17XX hours, they are on a massive road trip... massive road trips cross many countries = pack TONS of shit, shit as in gaskets, filter, all the lil shit that will fuck you up if you don't have...
the head gasket only takes few hours if u got the right tools, only u no help, you can fix your car form $20 to $80 for the head gasket if u take it to a shop average $1,200 !!! what I do buying cars with bad head gasket for very cheap then sell them running.
If thats all a head gasket repair takes, a few mongolian men in the mountain, then never let yourself get ripped off at a garage. Either do it yourself, or get a couple of mongolian men from the mountains. lol.
gotta do one of these for my mum... might be easyer to drop in a new motor... I will tell her to buy a new motor , that way I'll still give the head gasket a go and if it doesnt work then in goes the new engine..
Not to kill the battery trying to start it. Just like a motor bike, just pop the clutch. All fluids have to be recirculated esp oil to the top of the engine.
i think its because it was a stick and they probably killed the battery when changing the gasket so they toed it to start the car ....maybe an answer thats plausible i could be totally wrong though
This would work if the engine hasnt overheated. As long as the head isnt warped to out of tolerance its all good. Besides what did they do before torque wrenches? Granted its nice to have one, and I'd carry one if doing overland trips but you just know when a bolt is tight enough if your good which these guys are.
They carry a lot of things like food, water, tents and etc so it makes sense to carry some car spare parts too. Plus, almost all of them are mechanics so they obviously knew the problem(s) of each car they own.
@Terminchiator excuse me im curently changing my head gasket , and i dont know what does skimming mean ( i speak french ) and where do you put the silicone sealant ? thank you very much .
@qaz3000 you need basically to detach dirt without scratching metal, sand it evenly with paper going delicate on problem areas (aluminum heads need machining), clean with air the cyliners, clean with pure acetone the surfaces and torque it spirally starting by centre (i think usually spirally)you use before the torque key then turns NO SILICONE SEALANT, NOTHING TO USE i said that because they needed something to glue the dirt temporally, maybe they have the gasket but no products, translate it
Very cool-to bad more folks weren't as crafty as these guys,now a days most people shit there pants and need to see a therapist,and still whine for weeks..Another reason why the rest of the world is catching up and I for one am all for it......Great job guys........
wow i must say if you're my hero's lol lol very nice job...lol truthfully i have to give you credit because i had to do something like that but i wasn't in the obbis of nuthing ness lol lol but i am actually glad i clicked on this video becausee i tip my hat to you guys on getting a head changed and running with out shaving the heads...awsome job lol you just got another 1735hr out of the truck lol
I still can't believe how your countrymen (who I now respect beyond words) were able to strip that engine and change the head gasket. I addition to this, on the same trip, they changed a leaf spring on the rear axle. Not only did they change it, but they spent all night hammering a piece of steel into the right size and shape to replace it. Unbelievable! I wish those Russian jeeps were available for sale here in Canada!
Thank you very much for the respect! Yeah that kind of repair on the go is not somewthing unusual back home. It is a country with harsh climate and isolete places so you have to know what you are driving, and know how to fix it if something goes wrong. Those drivers know their cars like the back of their hands. Was in the same situation once (150 km's away from Ulgii) and had to disassemble and reassemble a broken carb a good few years before i even got my license.
One of the leaf springs broke on the rear axle. They spent half the night hammering a new one from a piece of steel and installing it. Good as new. Of course, the next day the driver was so sleepy we almost went off the road. Good thing the road was just another tire trail in the desert.
i asume you are some sort of idiot, that was only the top end of the engine, the whole engine would be impossible to lift, and its an average sized engine
HEY!!! my other comment didn't show!!! In that one i corrected myself, yes i did realize that that was actually the top end of the engine.However, i am sort of an idiot in that jumped the gun in saying that the engine was tiny.
I have to say, I am hughly impressed, disassempling the engine and putting it all together, and finally the sound of life came from that engine, these guys are amazing, thank you very much for sharing this video, now I am off to your channel... maybe I will subscribe but no guerantees..;)
I've never seen anything like it. I had to laugh when I learnt it was the head gasket -- the guide didn't know how to say it in English, so he had us in suspense until he tossed the burnt-out one on the ground.
these guys are professionals, trust me. If you go out with these guys and cars, you are in good hands, cuz they know their cars more than the factory of the cars.
i find it funny that, even though they had all the tools and the gasket with them.. they didnt have a set of jumper cables to jump it. :)
