I Failed to Repair my Cheap Aston Martin. It Drove Only 60 FEET on it’s First Drive Before Dying

1. I’m usually with you but this car needs to be parted out! I also noticed you did put the rear main seal in far enough. What a nightmare

2. Sam cracked…..dude, that has to me the most frustrating hobby on the planet.

3. When putting in a full circle type rear main seal like that,you have to do the following procedures: 1. Clean the new seal with brake clean. 2. Clean the block surface 100% (no oil or grease) with brake clean. 3. Wipe a small (almost infinitesimal) on the seal crankshaft sealing area ONLY. 4. On the block sealing area coat with a very small amount of 3M yellow cement. (yellow snot). 5. Then drive the seal on very carefully, straight and into the block driven down to EVEN with the block surface.

4. Bummer. The rooster cursed it.

5. Did you get it fixed?????

6. Life long parts guy here. Felpro rep once bragged that they had 90% of the gasket business west of the Mississippi. No wonder I see so many leaking main seals.

7. Hahahahaha wow!😮😂😂😂

8. I have a sports shift . Working on getting clutch and gears to shift. I think my acculstir is bad. Getting up over transaxle to adjust and bleed is a pain . 2 days. Still not working. You need scan tool to bleed

9. This was a year ago, wow finishing up old projects?

10. So we've got a misaligned clutch wrong seals cheap oil filter what could go wrong 😂

11. Oil filter clogged instantly 😂😂

12. My 09 Outback XT pushed the front main seal out for some odd reason.

13. I didn’t know Adam Sandler was so good with cars 😂

14. Did you really oil the outer of the seal ? Ide use some sealant on the outer rim and keep the oil to just the crank OD

15. Your videos have way too many commercials. They’ve become unwatchable. The juice is no longer worth the squeeze.

16. Or is it kanootin valve

17. Don't forget the kinuttin valve

18. No matter what you paid for an Aston Martin it's always worth less

19. How can you consider reusing a relatively cheap part like that seal, when it is buried under hours and hours of labour to reach it, in case it fails? That's not rational at all, to say the least. You can use to protect the new one and hammer away on this if you place it over.

20. …remember the words of Kenny Rogers: It's a Fine Time to Leave Me Loose Seal.

21. You and your brother look like twins . That commercial was funny.
    If you need a helper, my son loves luxury non-driving cars too.

22. I had a feeling there was going to be issues when he slobbered oil all over that seal. Either dry or a high temp sealant/loctite on the outside of it. I never put them in without some sort of sealant.

23. I LOVE Orange & Blue! (Go Broncos)

24. Here is an idea, why don't you invest in a lift? They are not that expensive.

25. Might have extra oil pressure because of the new oil cooler

26. Yeah..the AMV8 is loosely based on the Jag architecture, but it isn't the SAME engine. You should probably just get the correct AM RMS…kinda like the filter. What is a few bucks when a replacement engine costs $25k?

27. Rear Main Seal Installation…

    I had trouble getting the RMS istalled on my 928 S4 5-speed. I was able to get it started, but could not drive it down.

    What I did was take the old RMS, and using electrical tape, I aligned and taped it to the backside of the flywheel oriented so that both RMS's met face-to-face. I attempted to install the flywheel but the stock bolts were now too short. I ran to Ace and bought bolts half-inch longer which then allowed me to get the flywheel started. I went around and tightened the bolts a half-turn at a time which pushed down the RMS perfectly square all around.

    Finally, started the car and no leaks!

29. I'd feel sorry for you if you weren't a rich you tuber trying to cheap out and trying to outsmart the British crappy engineering trying to be in traffick looking Luke a baller while I cant even get a decent car to drive to work to support my family I hate you

30. No dont reuse it, fit a new one and use this one as a dolly to aide fitting the new one.

31. you DAMAGED running surface on crank when FIRST working on car—– when pulling old seal out…… most likely crank needs COLLAR to create new surface for seal…. ALWAYS put ptfe tape around a seal in a serious position OR bearing sealer TO AVOID IT POPPING OUT…… YAMAHA'S BLOW OUT 2 STROKE CRANK SEALS even brand new oem on perfect shaft……

32. Aston is a pos

33. Other rims looked way better this make it look old

34. Lesson learned: if it's not leaking, LEAVE IT TF ALONE.

35. If in doubt, apply more force. It works ALL of the rarelies.

36. Why the heck don't you install a lift in your barn. I am certain Bend Pack would give you one for the advertising ala `Hoovies Garage and the Car Wizard.

37. Great vid and great ingenuity to find an alternative clutch. Not sure I would put oil on the inside of the seal

38. "the suspense is killing me"
    Oh me too.
    Ooh, flywheel off.
    Ugh, O'Reilly's ad.

39. Sam ass crack you should work at jiffy lube

40. How does Samcrac not have a two post lift?
