Back in Service After 10 Years - Garden Find V12 BMW E31 850i Revival - Project Marseille: Part 3
Added 2021-04-18 23:42:36 +0000 UTCPart 3 of project Marseille has landed! This is the one where the glorious V12 comes back to life!
I honestly didn't expect it would take this much work to get it running, but I persevered and the engine is singing again. A huge milestone and the next step is to get into a driving condition.
Took me a bit longer to finish the video cause of the Hans sketch. I'm again goofing around, hope you like it :)
Thank you all for your kind support!

2021-04-20 16:55:55 +0000 UTCNot a bad idea but then there's a hole for water and dirt to collect. I think it's better to leave them on.

2021-04-20 16:41:01 +0000 UTCAfter you re-thread the spark plug holes do the adapters stay in the cylinder head or do they come out with the sparkplug the next time you change them?

2021-04-19 12:19:39 +0000 UTCGreat video as always. Good to see the experts back!
2021-04-19 10:55:31 +0000 UTCWow! The grande dame is alive again. Very nice. And thanks for the sketch! One question/remark regarding the jack pads: Wouldn't it be smart to remove them while driving (keeping them in the boot or the garage) and only use them if you need them? Or would that be too much of a hassle?
2021-04-19 10:33:20 +0000 UTCSuper video thank you, loved the Hans antics - augh those pesky thread extractors, never had any success, swear they're an invention of the devil just to make bad situation worse ;-)

2021-04-19 07:48:47 +0000 UTCSomeone has been cutting until 2 in the morning! Your dedication for YouTube will get you far and bring us fans even more awesome videos from you! :)
2021-04-19 04:41:17 +0000 UTCI noticed the same arc on the connector over the left headlight. Someone else did on the YouTube comment section too. Ocd fans
2021-04-19 02:50:08 +0000 UTCWhat an eye you have! Watched this so many times during editing and didn't notice it. It's the headlight connector, I'll take a look at it tomorrow.
