What did you find Peter 97 Clips fully built Carmen No way. The whole interior is done. Get out of here. It's super cool.

So very very random video Peter Came here to see what kind of car did you come here to see the TSX Oh a TSX Okay this guy right here. so he came to see this and saw this in the garage and talked to the guy and he will sell it. This is a very old build. Uh it was done in like what? 2001? Yeah or something.

Um so like a all-out show car. DSM build and he will sell it I Mean this is crazy to see right now. but this was done in 2001 and how long did he say it was sitting? Um at least eight years with the fuel that's in it and is it? E85 Oh great. Okay wow.

so the guy's inside. He just came out and we said we're gonna film a little. He was cool. oh my God Are you kidding me? Dude, this is done up.

He said it had a forged motor or something, right? Yeah, fully built motor? Look at the intake. Oh my gosh, you gotta be kidding me right now. So this car was built right about a year after Fast and the Furious came out Oh my gosh. I Mean respect.

Not my thing at all. but respect here. I mean the amount of work that probably went into this car? Well the interior is just mostly painted I guess but different steering wheel. Whoa.

Here is the bumper. What else? Oh wow. It's got a carbon fiber trunk lid too. So is this oh there's no way.

Lexan back glass so this is no with a windshield. Dude, this guy put some money into this car. Are we buying this thing or what? How do you Not buy this? How? All right guys. It's a few days later we got the car.

It is a Talon TSI First time Max has seen it. Dude Yes, you guys aren't gonna believe this. So Peter was looking at the Acura It's like a three thousand dollar. Acura So we got the Acura and this car for 10 000.

Okay, the guy has a stack of receipts like this Big. we actually forgot them over there. We got to get him. but he estimates there's at least sixty thousand dollars in 2001 money into this build.

So we just got it dropped off from the tow truck and we're gonna push it in the shop and and we're getting right into it. Guys, we want to see if we can get this thing to fire up. I Mean this is. It's kind of a big gamble.

If it fires, this is a money making car. this will sell for way more. probably way more than double what we paid for it if the engine's bad and the guy totally trashed on it before selling it to us. Uh, then we gotta spend quite a bit of money to get it going.

but this is what we live for Peter Ten thousand bucks wasn't Acura I mean I Can't believe it. Look at this. I mean this is like 2500 bucks right here. It's got a really nice turbo I think is this a scatter Shield right here.

Oh damn he said it's got a fully built trans and all this stuff is very expensive. So this could be like a six thousand dollar engine. six thousand dollar transmission, a couple thousand maybe like three, four thousand with a manifold and the Turbo eight or ten Grand in carbon. Like yeah, like the carbon each He said Each one of these pieces was 2500 bucks.
Oh and check this out. It's got these wheels from Japan and I Have no idea why this is but it has two valve stems I Have never seen that in my life. Let me know in the comment section. Why? Why? All right? So we gotta push this into the shop and uh, it's been sitting with E85 for a long time so we have to attack the fuel system first.

we're gonna do our normal routine. uh, boroscoping the cylinder, spraying some oil in there, making sure a Piston's not blown up. Uh and then yeah, we're gonna try and get it started in this video. Peter percentage chances this thing fires up after our normal little maintenance routine.

Oh I Got good feeling about this one. I Gotta say 98 98 9 cents on a completely unknown build like that's been sitting for forever with E85 that is. That's a lot of confidence right there. Don't smash that carbon door.

Peter We did it. Yay! All right guys, We got the talent in the shot. Peter and I are dying to get into the mechanical which we're gonna do. uh but we're gonna take this front bumper out of the Interior first.

I'm curious to see if it's in good shape because I just looking through the glass. that is so cool. looking through it looks fine. It's like they just simply removed it outsole lid is carbon fiber? Is it really? I mean they went nuts with the carbon on this dude.

This bumper looks totally fine. let's say Kbd. Oh it's got this cool aluminum. yeah wow.

so it's like a support bracket. Wow! Kbd front bumper I Don't know. Is this expensive? It looks. it looks super high quality.

It's not fiberglass and should we just let's go like just see what it looks like. Yeah, all right all right. I Gotta say they did such a good job with the paint. It looks fantastic and oh did you say this car was black originally? Yeah, okay.

67 000 mile clean title card. Keep in mind people. I Paid eight thousand dollars for my 250 000 mile like basically stock Eclipse. This is insane.

Wow, it's definitely got it's got that look Yeah! I mean I'm personally like the carbon fiber and all this stuff. It's not me as you guys are gonna see with my Eclipse build. I'm going for more of a OEM plus look. but I can respect the amount of work that went into this thing.

Yeah, especially because it's like a time capsule like setup. It's period. Correct. This is so good.

All right. We got eight-year-old E85 in the tank. Oh, that's gonna be crazy. Um I'm thinking let's just go right this? The seven units in the back seat? Yeah.

and this thing's got no backseat or carpets. Oh, so it'll be real easy. Yeah, yeah. All right.

fuel sending unit is somewhere on the passenger side. What does this seat look like? They're brand new? No one's ever said in these things I wonder how much these seats are? Oh, and there's our fuel send unit right here. Wait, look at this. Our tool is right here.
We got a free tool. Excellent. Might as well use that. Hopefully this tool is not here because he was having issues.

You never know, There's kind of a big gap I Don't know. Have you ever seen E85 Uh, after eight years of sitting I've seen it after a year and it's yeah it smells weird but I haven't seen it. It's not good for injectors or anything, so this is going to be very interesting. Thumbs up or comes up.

Yeah, yeah, basically it just it just gums it up. Can you disconnect me? who? Okay, uh. all right. so we'll get some aftermarket fittings right here.

Okay, oh that's that's oh man. this guy's totally probably been in here recently. Oh yeah. I'm already smelling smells very eaty-fivey Get it open.

So excited. Hello! Okay, oh it's full. Oh no that is not good. Oh, it's full and it's kind of brown looking.

Everything's pretty clean. Yeah, let's see if it fires. She could put power to it right? Yeah, yeah, let's let's see if the fuel pump works. All right.

Here is our setup. We're putting power and ground to the fuel pump connector. Are you ready? Yeah, there we go. Oh all right.

kind of sounds like a Honda All right. I mean it's it's doing. it's doing something. We got an organ Fields up.

That's awesome. Great because I think this is a wall bro. Oh yeah, that's definitely the W for wall bro and the W for winning. This could be such a big win right now if this car fires up.

I'm so excited!

And with that, let's go take a fuel sample and see how bad this is gonna be. Alright guys, here's our setup: Yellow Bucket Glass Jar We have our fluid transfer pump and we're gonna.

We're gonna try and get a lot of this stuff out. so E85 absorbs a lot of moisture and it's not even recommended to leave it in your tank for six months, let alone, you know, eight years. I Don't even think it would fire up on this stuff at this point. I Think we're gonna invest in an electric fluid transfer pump at this point with all these old abandoned type of vehicles with bad fuel that we get or or not and I could just get exercise every once in a while like this is working I Think like the packs and the pack traps.
the traps are up there. That's I don't think it's working your traps I'm not a doctor I just play a mechanic on TV I have to feed you all your lines. That is really Orange she's brown. It's made of corn.

This is a full tank and it's got like probably 16 gallons in it or whatever. and I've gotten out like maybe one at this point. This is not. We might need to look into a different way of doing this here.

All right. Well, while we're here, we'll just get a little sample here. I dare you to take a sip of that here? It's corn, right? It is corn. It's healthy.

It's basically a salad, right? Yeah, you're getting your vegetables in. How much? How much would it take? You'd probably straight up die well I wouldn't swallow it I put it in my mouth. Would I be an accessory at that point? Yeah. I bet you to drink this and something bad happened.

Lawyers don't do it Peter Don't do it. You kind of want to. No, no, it's like moonshine, right? Isn't that how Moon's shining? Yeah, let's look at you messed up I'm sure. All right.

we're gonna go up and see if we can drain this from the bottom and we get to take a look at. What Lies Beneath on this car. All right man. everything is fresh.

This thing has probably no miles on this build whatsoever. Yeah, Yeah the brake rotors are totally painted. They have the metallic flake in there as well. That's hilarious.

Made in. Japan Are these expensive? Wheels I Have no idea. I'm kneeling right now I Can't even wait to see what we got going on here. Got a different sway bar? Let's see.

B F B Is that the uh. limited slip? Yes, Yes. this is a limited slip differential. I Want this? There is basically everything on this car.

I Just want to steal and put on my car. Got an aluminum drive shaft? No way we got rid of them. Yeah, The center supports. Oh that's cool.

I'm just gonna call these guys up and get the same thing done. We'll measure it up. Oh, here's our fuel pump. Oh so it's feeding into this gigantic one.

Look at that. All right. So the one we pulled out is the lift pump. This is the actual big boy right here.

The Bosch pump. Well, hopefully this works. We'll have to check that out. and then we have.

Oh, we got a fuel filter right here. We'll definitely want to take that apart. Thin fuel filter? Yeah, let's see and it's going to run extra cool. Wow.

look at all these nice cobwebs, spiders. oh little babies maybe? Uh, we got a little fluid leak action going on here. Wow. They painted the oil pan, look at this, the balancer and all the pulleys kind of match the paint on the car and the guy said that the transmission is all built and ready to handle basically whatever you can throw at it.
Um, let's see. we got the wastegate dump right here so this thing is probably super loud. The calipers are painted to match the body. This is a lot of details.

It's it's all done. Really nice though. You know this is beautiful. All right.

Uh, what are we here for? We need to drain fuel. All right guys. Here's our setup. We are powering up this fuel pump and we have it jumped to the fuel pump up there so they'll come out at the same time.

so all we have to do is turn on our our fuel pump switch right there. We also have a bunch of buckets because this tank is full and we are going to crack the line here at this super cool looking fuel filter and we'll see what comes out. Oh that was really loose. All right here we go people.

The fuel in the tank doesn't really look that bad, but I've seen the 85 at fuel injectors and it just kind of like thumbs up. but I don't know. maybe it's not that old. Oh okay.

well nothing's coming. Oh wait, why whoa What in the world? Oh my gosh, this thing is like totally clogged up. like a like a clogged up artery. Whoa.

Look at the fuel filter. No way. I Mean this is bad, but also awesome. Uh, let's get a pick and see if we can get some of this stuff out or hold on what? Uh, let's just this.

both of these ends are so loose that's so weird. Oh nasty. Oh yeah, that is cholesterol. Oh my gosh, what is this carbon eating Smells like? we're smuggling moonshine over here.

All right, let's see what's inside of this guy. It does thread. Hopefully there's some in here that we can replace. Oh yeah, whoa.

Does that just collapsed? Yeah dude, that is awesome. Oh it's like rock hard too. Wow, people don't leave your E85 sitting around for too long. That's nasty.

Come on. Peter it's it. Smells good. it's corn.

Ah I got it. I was just kidding. Oh nasty nasty shot of vodka I wasn't expecting I was kidding around. Geez, we might have some drink for after work.

Yeah, maybe I don't know. Oh, look for it on uh legitstreetcars.com We're gonna be selling alcohol now. Okay, this is. this is too cool.

We gotta fish this out. Oh wow I mean it is crunchy. Is that the bird? This is how it's supposed to be. Well I mean no.

Oh yeah. I mean no. but this. this is the only filter like element in here.

Kind of weird. That's it because the other one's just like a metal screen. Okay, um. what is this white thing? Uh, maybe that's part of that little filter mesh.

Yeah, and the other one is just a metal screen. so we can definitely clean this out. Is it gummy or crusty? No, it's got me. It's it's um, you know what this reminds me of.
Did anyone out there ever have like reptiles as a kid? My whole room I had like 10 tanks in the room filled with lizards and snakes and tarantulas and stuff. my my parents wouldn't allow me to get a dog. so I rebelled and just bought lizards and stuff I was I collected quite a bit anyway. I would feed them crickets and I would feed the Crickets something that looked just like this.

It was basically like a gelatin with water and vitamins in it. That is exactly what this looks like. comment down below. If you guys have any idea what I'm talking about, what's it called? Do you remember Cricket gelatin Cricket Jello All right.

Peter is Manning our fuel pump switch I'm going to kind of aim this down a little bit. All right. Peter Oh, here we go. Give me what? What's that? uh what's that Metallica song Give me fuel.

give me five. Give me that what you're trying to decide. Okay, okay, stop. turn it off.

Okay, that's gotta be blocked up like crazy. Probably. Yeah, we heard the pump comes on and then it's just like oh here. look we got a little oh yeah it is clogged up worse than Chris Farley's arteries were as a super fan on SNL how are you Bob I Just came up with that right now.

Super fans. Anyone that makes a banker's dozen for me? this is bad. All right. Well it's luckily though, it's easy.

All we gotta do is take this line off about a big bada Boom no you guys see in Italy that stereotype is not correct Peter The pressure. All right. Well the good news is is that I think it is liquid at the fuel pump. That's my deduction.

All right. So we've released all the pressure here. All right guys. I have the air pressure gun Peter is Manning Peter is Manning the bucket.

Are we like milking a cow? We are milking a cow and Performing open heart surgery right now. Oh wow, how much is in there? The whole Line's got to be just totally I want to look but I also am afraid maybe we have to backfeed it All right. let's try this way. Oh there it is Chuck Okay, let's take a look at that shark.

Do we have a baby? Is it a boy? Oh wow, it's just disintegrated. 150 psi of air pressure will do that. but that's that's what the clog was. That gives me hope though that this is going to be easy to do because we have liquid coming out of the fuel pump.

so the pumps are fine. Yeah, so everything and the tank I mean at that point we'd know is good. Yeah? I think it's here forward so the rail and the injectors and everything are. they got to be super close.

So all the important stuff I'd rather have it this way because I don't have to take the tank out and all that. Yes, well, because we can, we're gonna have to backflow the injectors anyway. Yeah, yeah, yeah, this is the easier one. We're good.

I Like it all right guys. We're about to fire up these fuel pumps and drain the tank. Peter You ready? Let's do this. but before we get to that? I Gotta let you guys know about the insane deal from Avalon King on their armor.

Let's get back to the Talon All right I Can't see anything anymore, but here we go. Safety right? Safety. Oh yeah, we all right. that's pretty uneventful really.

but our fuel pumps are both working. They're sounding pretty good. I'll show you guys when these buckets are full. What are we gonna do? What are we gonna do with this stuff? That's what I want to know guys, let us know in the comment section: what are we to do with like probably 15 gallons of bad E85 old E85 Can't you mix it with engine oil and run a diesel truck on it? I Think you can do that? I don't know diesel guys got any use for this.

It actually smells good. like I like it I can't really smell it. Oh yeah, shooter can't smell. Oh are we coming to the end I Think that's it.

Oh that's great because we only filled that one up and about half of this one. Oh yeah. okay. six gallons.

Yeah. I mean it is a saddle tank so it's possible that it wasn't totally full. Well, there's less of this stuff to get rid of to drink to drink. I Mean yes.

I mean to bottle up and sell is premium distill aged distilled liquor. Yeah, yeah, you know what a lot of places they've aged them in barrels. Vhr liquor in in fine JDM gas tanks sorry USD um yes they will correct you Normal Illinois foreign Depot and in pickle buckets. Also look at that Chicago pickle company.

This one's not me. although I wish I wish I did have five gallons of pickles. Where did we get this pickle thing from? I don't remember. All right.

So I think we're gonna call it a day. Oh okay. Peter was gonna flip the switch anyway, but it fell off. Um, but yeah, we don't want to heat up the pumps without running the proper amount of fuel through them, so that should be good.

We drained out quite a bit and the tank should be empty. All right, We have to remove this truck tower brace to get to the fuel rail. Can we swing this guy into a service position? Kind of. Yeah.
Let's just get rid of it. Peter's being unhelpful as usual. See, this is what happens I just wait until Alex needs something done and then do you need me to work? Not involved? All right, Ready? Yeah. Is this how professional does it? Yep, that's it.

Peter Wow, it's called Lefty Lucy Ready tidy I Think that's like the first thing I learned just in life Arigato Sensei uh, the mysterious Japanese language I'm learning much of it as we speak. This used to be Mitsubishi for me, but now it's Mitsubishi. That's exactly it. is it.

Mitsu is three. Bishi is Diamond So there's three diamonds. No way. Mitsubishi Very.

It just blew my mind. So Mitsubishi They make everything. but they make pencils. You can go to this the stationery store in Japan and get Mitsubishi pencils.

No yeah, they're high performance all-wheel drive. They even say can we get those here in the United States though I got a guy. He's got a pencil guy that takes having a guy to a whole new level. Hook me up with some pencils.

Peter The Japanese stationery is really it's it's. top-notch All right. We're gonna get this PCV connection off first. all right now.

we can access this line right here and I am really hoping that we don't have any of that. Gunk build up on these fittings to the regulator because then we'll have to take apart the regulator which I'm not looking forward to. We could have a bad diaphragm then. So anyway, fingers crossed.

All right. Well, this is weird. This thing is really loose on here. It doesn't make any sense.

This is the same on the other side. They are both super loose. huh? All right. let's hold this here.

There we go is this custom anodized red I Don't know. you think they had it match the paint color? Yeah, maybe that looks I Don't know if this came in right. Could be faded though. Hey um, look that looks like it came in red.

It's because it's slightly different Rod right? Uh, what do we got in there? Peter Oh yep. she's crusty. They're crusty. It's the crust.

Like the crustiest. It's dry and crusty. Um, it's got remnants of crusty. Yeah, this is the light.

so we need to blow it out from here down there. All right, let's check out this return. What do we got? Oh, it's plugged. kinda.

I don't know. we got more crusties going on here. Okay, oh, that's promising. Oh nice.

This is at the bottom of the regulator and it's clean. All right. Maybe it drained back so there was nothing. This is the highest part of the fuel system.

All right. let's see a little crust there. This is the uh, the return line that connects to the rail. It's got a little.

oh wow. All right. we got to take this fuel pressure regulator out and disassemble it because I don't trust what could possibly be in here. All right there we go.
This is a nice piece. I have the same one on the Trans Am stuff in there I Don't want to mess with the fuel pressure on this guy. so I'm just going to hold it. There's going to be a spring you're fighting, but be prepared.

Just do it each one of them a little bit at a time. Okay, please be okay. Oh, that diaphragm looks good. Be good.

just a little bit of cleaning I Don't see any tears though on the diaphragm when you get a tear in the diaphragm on your fuel pressure regulator. The vacuum line that hooks up to it right here will have fuel coming out of it which will get sucked up directly under intake manifold and it'll run horrible. Super Rich So always check that. But yeah, we just got to do a little bit of cleaning in here and we should be good.

All right, we're getting lucky so far. Let's get that rail off. What are your odds on the injectors? 100 I Mean they're gonna be. They're going to be really, really clogged and dirty.

but we're going to use our injector cleaning machine. Of course our PI from Amsoil should clean it right up. Foreign fuel rail is coming out. There we go.

Looks like we have some pretty big spacers that I'm dropping everywhere. Looks like we had some pretty big speakers. We have two spacers now. All right.

here are fuel Injectors Are these 1600 CC Fuel Injectors or is that a part number? We're calling Fuel Injection Connection Fic I think these might be 1600 CC Injectors Hey Aaron Uh, my name is Alex and I was just calling to see if you could verify the size of, uh, the fuel injectors that we found on a car we just bought. They have your stamp on them. Um okay. the delayed engraving on the injector, right? Yeah, yeah, it says 125-1600 He said 125.

Yep, all right so that in that case, that'll be the 1600 CP injector for at least a Mitsubishias Well yep, yeah, we got him out of a 4g63. Uh, it's a an Eagle Talent Okay, perfect 1600 CC that's massive. Okay, all right. well thank you so much.

I I Appreciate it no problem Alex you have a good day YouTube Thanks Wow this car's got 1600 CC Fuel injectors. Dude, that's really big. It's Huge I mean what did this guy say for power numbers I Thought he said six something. it was two like 600 all Wheels right? 600 all-wheel but it was detuned to that like it was I Thought he said it was like something like 800 or 900 or something.

dude with this kind of fuel on E85 Yeah, this could be like an 800 horsepower car. like uh, you know, all the way turned up. That's insane. Wow, All right.

well let's see. Uh, let's see what our 1600 CC fuel injectors look like. Oh my gosh Yeah no way. Wow, that was.

These are really expensive too. I Think these are like a thousand bucks for four of them. maybe? I Don't know. Yeah, four of them are eight hundred and forty dollars.

Wow, these are expensive and they are full of garbage. Wow, that is some serious like yeah, this stuff was just white and jelly. That stuff has other stuff. they've had more time to coagulate more air.
Oh come on baby, come out. Oh yeah. if there was a modern day car Indiana Jones movie. this would be like the archaeological find in the movie Indiana Jones and the Last DSM Yeah, Oh yeah.

Oh wow. Look at this all over here. Sweet! LSC Hoodie That's right. Where the heck do you get those site with just three cars.com I Don't know.

just saying. Here's my Indiana Jones moment. Whoa. Oh, Archeology 1600, What does that mean? What are these markings? Look at These markings.

Wow. All right, let's uh. let's get them in the machine. All right.

We're just using some electrical contact cleaner here. All right. So we're filling our little tank up here with the performance improver from Amsoil So this is the reservoir. It's got just a little tiny pump in here and this is what it looks like inside.

This is kind of annoying. It takes forever to fill it up with this little hose, but that's what we're dealing with. all right. So we've put the entire bottle in and we did have a little bit of gasoline some 93 in here before, but we should be good.

All right. Injectors are in our injection cleaning machine and we're on number two idle test. Let's see what happens. Okay, that's pretty good.

So they're kind of racing against each other. You can see that's a little brown and yellow nasty looking fuel right now. so it's about a 50 50 mix between the fuel and the performance improver and it's very, very foamy right now. but they are racing away.

I Don't know about the spray pattern yet. I Think we're gonna have to run this for quite some time. Yeah, and we're at about 30 40 PSI uh fuel pressure and we'll just kind of see what happens here. Yeah, I don't know guys.

last time we used 100 gasoline and uh, it wasn't nearly as foamy like this. It was kind of easier to see the results, so this could be because we're using the the cleaner now. All right, let's let this settle down though and we'll see what our our results are, but they all look pretty even this one may be a little bit lower. All right guys.

here are the final results. This injector, uh, lost by a little bit. It's not too bad. Um, but at this point we're going to drain all this and just looking at how much this tank holds I Think we were running a hundred percent of the Pis.

Yeah, you can see where the level is right now. so we're gonna add uh, 93 octane to the rest and just do this all over again. I Think the gas will really help us see kind of the consistency in the spray pattern because this is not the exact same viscosity as gasoline. It's a little thicker and we really want to see the flow.

And then we'll do the ultrasonic cleaning with just the pi uh in the little tank here. Yeah, so one of these cans treats 30 gallons of fuel, so we have quite the concentration right now, which will definitely help clean the fuel injectors. but I just I Really want to see the spray pattern? the real spray pattern? All right. So we're totally full now and let's see what our spray pattern looks like.
Takes a little while to build up pressure. Oh yeah, okay, all right We're Off to the Races Let's see what happens, but the spray pattern is already looking a lot more normal. Oh, these are yeah. these These are going to be good man.

Peter I Think we got good injectors? Dude, we got good injectors, good fuel pumps. Uh, we're gonna clean up the regulator, we'll clean up the rail, and our fuel system is going to be good. We're yeah, we got to pull some plugs first. And the Boost Okay, so yeah, this one is again just a little bit below the other ones.

Let's just clean them up in the ultrasonic. This is always super satisfying. See you all right? So we have the injector tips in the ultrasonic bath and we're gonna go down. there.

We go. It's a number one ultrasonic cleaning and then it makes this horrible Nails on chalkboard type of sound and we'll let that run out for about 10 minutes and then re-test while the injectors are buzzing away. Let's bore a scope watch. We're doing all this whole fuel system and then it's got like holes and pistons.

I mean I Guess we still need to fix. We need to still fix the car no matter what. but maybe we should have started with the engine first. Wow, look at this plate.

Man this is thick. Well also this says coil unplugged. The white one doesn't Yeah, you're right. distributor still.

Oh that's cool I didn't notice that so they had to have gotten a whole new harness or spliced it in. Yeah well that that you can. You can run that when you run the Vs Emily the DSM link. Yeah, it allows you to do coil unplug.

All right, let's remove some spark plugs. Please be okay. Please be okay. Please be okay.

Brand new. Literally never fired. Wow. that's clean.

That's like scary though too. Lick it. Lick it. It's so easy to lick this one.

Oh my God. of course. I'm gonna lick this one. This is the easiest.

Yeah, it's brand new. There's nothing on here. Maybe. and maybe a little anti-seize Use an Italian torque.

I Kind of don't like to see brand new plugs right now. I'm not gonna lie. really. Why? Why are they running not fired like oh yeah.

like that doesn't make any sense. I mean it only makes sense when you replace the plugs. Maybe maybe the guy wanted to get it running and replace the plugs and then realized like how messed up the fuel system was because those lines were all like kind of loose. Maybe you saw that Gunk and was like forget it I'm out.

That's a lot of it. which makes sense, which makes sense. It's a lot of work. We got to pull apart the entire fuel system right right? and this was a checkbook car.
The guy that owned it didn't actually do like most of the build. it was just dropped off at Shops and stuff. So maybe he was gonna try and get it to go again and then just gave up I Don't know. I I Definitely know that he got the transmission and the drivetrain and the motor built.

Yeah, he didn't build any of those, but yeah, I mean he might have put them in I Don't know. All right guys. going in with the boriscope that is a nice looking piston right there. Oh geez, that's this is the nicest piston we've ever seen.

Yes I mean out of all the cars that we've kind of rescued that haven't ran forever, this is nice watch. I'm gonna jinx myself. but yeah I mean this engine I mean it maybe just has a couple thousand miles on it. It was just all freshly built, never used.

Cylinders look good all right. So that's number one. Here is another one. it's It's all the way up right now so all we can just see is the face of the Piston But that looks good.

and on this one we can see some numbers. 998 one one. We'll have to look that up. Oh yeah, here we go again.

with nine, Nine Eight One one. Let me know guys, Is that a good piston? Uh, everything looks good though. All right. cool.

I Don't even think we need to fog these. They look fine. We're betting a thousand so far. Alex This is.

uh, this is looking too good guys. Uh. I'm a little weary right now. Wow.

Can you just be positive? Come on. I Don't trust anything? Uh, let's let's fog these cylinders and uh, and then we'll try to do the spinny thing. You know, the engine's spinning by hand. All right.

So we got the Amsoil fogging oil going in and we will let that sit for many, many hours first. and this is going to make sure that our first crank or start isn't dry and it'll protect the Pistons the Rings the cylinder walls. all that all that stuff that likes to scratch against each other. it's not properly lubricated, smells really good.

It smells so good. I Can smell that? Well yeah, that smells really good. It's the best. It kind of makes me hungry, right? All right guys.

It's a few hours later and we are going to be turning this crank Like So, All right here. You ready for this? All right? This is going to determine if this motor is good or not I know that's right. I like I Like resting my face on this carbon fiber. Now it's kind of nice.

All right here we go. I'm gonna turn the crank. Oh oh, this piston looks really good. Perfectly there.

we're good. This thing is gonna start in this video. definitely rotates all right. Wow, look at that.

I mean everything is new. The timing belt just? oh yeah. Mitsubishi Guys I mean look at all this stuff. Everything is just top-notch Look at this brand new.

Mitsubishi belt. Well I mean it's not new, but it's you know, very low mileage. It's not dry rotted or anything. but just man.
this is a sweet car. This guy had a ton of money into this. It's got It's got the cam pulleys. it's got the regular.

it's in the power steering pulley like all the pulleys are aluminum. Dude I wonder oh man. I can't wait to hear this I wonder if it's got different cams in it because these things sound pretty good. all choppy.

I'd be hard-pressed to say that he did all of this to the car and didn't put some cams in it, right? All right guys, we're reassembling Peter is reinstalling the spark plugs and coils. meanwhile I just set the machine up for another test so we can have our injector race. Make sure that that one is good actually. I don't know which one it is anymore because I just mixed them all up.

but as long as they're all the same, we'll be all right. Off to the Races Actually, you know what? I'm gonna leave the valve open for a little bit just so everything's up to pressure. We're all good now. Off to the Races Also, we cleaned out the fuel rail.

Just a little bit of carbon choke cleaner and some air pressure and she's looking new all right. We just got done with the test and everything is super. Even these injectors are freshly cleaned and ready to go back in. And if you guys are interested in buying yourself one of these machines, they're actually not too much.

I'll leave an Amazon link down below and I'll reach out to the company and see if I can get you guys some kind of coupon code. Alright guys, I've cleaned out the fuel pressure regulator so we're good to go back together on that. So I gotta remember to put our spring back on and then we're going to need to push this down all right? So I had to push it while Peter got these started, but we're good. I'll just tighten these all down evenly and our regulator is done all right.

We get this little fuel line out. Oh, it's coming out from here. All right. We need to figure out something that will dissolve all that gunk.

This is just gasoline. Oh there we go. It's coming through a little. Oh yeah.

I mean we have a huge chunk right here. Let's just do one of these. Oh yeah, this is like salad as a rack. but it was getting through a little.

Oh there we go. Now it's flowing. This stuff was really hard. it's breaking it up.

Oh yeah, we're good. All right. Cool. Fuel filter is clean for now.

I'll bring this over by the pressure washer. mint it out. We still need to get the filter element, but be okay. temporarily.

All right. Look at this. Our zip tie goes in this end. no problem.

but not this end. Okay, well, that's good. At least we know which end is clogged. All right.

So we got some welding wire and I can get it to go all the way through to this end. so it's just plugged up right in here. Yeah, we hit a roadblock right there, but this is stronger than a zip tie. It might be able just to break it free.
All right. I've gotten the welding cable to go all the way in, so at least we have poked a hole through whatever's in there. Oh yep. Yep.

Yep. hit me in the face. So really yeah? Oh, look at that. All right.

let's try it from the other end. Oh yeah. shooting me I Don't know why I'm putting my face in there to see if it's clogged. If it doesn't blind me, then we're good.

All right. Cool. We'll keep going with that. We gotta clean the fuel filter.

We'll bring this over to the wash bay. Oh yeah. I wasn't doing that before. Oh yeah.

Oh yeah. look at that. Look at that. All right.

Put back, flush it the other way and we should be all right. Let's blast our fuel filter housing. Oh yeah, look at all that. Gunk We gotta go from this way.

Yeah, wow. that's a big difference. Look at that. This thing is clean too.

We're ready to go back together. All right. So I cut open the clear fuel filter that we used on the coupe Quattro Audi to rig up. It's totally professional and normal fuel system that definitely didn't have lines running outside of the door and I was able to harvest the fuel filter element and it fits perfectly inside of this housing.

So I think this just happens to be the same size. although what's supposed to go in here is like a 65 like. K N Style Metal mesh thing. uh, looks kind of fancy so I'm gonna order that up.

but I think this will work for now just to catch anything that we missed. Injectors are reinstalled, the rail is back, everything is tight. We have our fuel pressure regulator uh, spark plugs, coils are back and we checked the engine oil. I was gonna change it but it is brand new.

Uh I think the guy put new oil filter and plugs tried to start it up just by cranking it. It didn't start and he just gave up. Uh, so we're not even a bother changing the oil right now I Just want to see if this engine will run and then we'll go through our full maintenance package. Abandoned car maintenance package? uh, probably in the next video.

but anyway, we just have to reinstall this and it's bombs away. That's not like the best thing to be saying right now, right? We don't want an explosion. Okay, no, no bombs. Oh hey, we want start, start away all right.

Fuel filter is back in and right now I'm going around and collecting up spider webs I'm just getting them all kind of out of here because some of them are on the exhaust and I'm almost certain. spider webs are flammable. Well, spider webs light on fire. I Have no idea.

Did you know that strand for strand? A spider web strand is just as strong is a steel strand. like if they were the same exact size. Really? Yeah, Wow. yeah.

like there was. there was something to Spider-Man like. Spider-Man's legit. All right.
His web was very, very strong and and we have a ton of Spider-Man webs on this car. Look, look at this. Oh my gosh, all these poor flies got murdered and all these babies just waiting waiting to attack. I'm sorry guys, you gotta go I don't want you Lighting on fire I Have no idea if spider webs light on fire, but we're getting rid of them.

Okay, there we go. So this car doesn't have a battery I Kind of kind of forgot about that. The battery on my Eclipse is in the trunk. so when I saw this empty void here I'm like ah, no big deal but no, this needs a battery.

Oh wait a minute. the battery normally goes there. this is where the air box sits. Okay I forgot.

Oh they have a gigantic catch can down there. That thing is really nice and then all of this stuff here. So yeah. I guess the battery is going to be here now.

We have an extra C4 Corvette battery and we're gonna see if that works. Oh did you hear that it's beeping? We got beep noises. Yes, what is this? Oh, it's for your hazards that works. Oh I Can't wait to see what CDs in here.

Carbon fiber Japanese Definitely. We had a Japanese guy who was literate. yeah can you read Japanese very little you should go to school in Japan What was the classes were in English International You just failed them all right? The clutch feels really good Peter Roadside Assistance Yeah here to help I Like how this has become a tradition. You're the you're the official fuel filter guy, the Gasser the 80 80 fiber.

Let's open this guy up. Oh yeah, and we got this mostly put back together and five gallons of the good stuff. Actually probably the worst stuff. It's E85 in the middle of winter? Oh yeah, yeah, it's been sitting.

It's not much better than what we just took out. It's so light racing. you needed that? Yeah. uh I think we're ready right? I like I'm apprehensive to think that we might be ready.

but I think we might be ready. We have a completely cleaned out fuel system. injectors, all the lines brand new plugs, brand new plugs. the oil is brand new.

we have a battery we have E85 we have an ignition key. Two giddy idiots. Yes, we have most importantly that let's let's do it All right. All right.

All right. Whoa. Okay, okay okay yeah. oh and listen to that.

uh. any leakage. Oh is that thing that whoa? Okay, okay and the fuel pump just stays on. Okay, there's no priming this system apparently.

Oh wow. yeah, that's not good. The gauge is lit up but they're flashing at me. I don't really know what that means before we fix the fuel leak.

you know I gotta see what CD's in here. No, there's no CD I don't think it's I don't think it's anything down here I think it's all All About That Sending unit up there we must investigate. Let's see what it is. I forgot to put the the clamp back on I was swapping around because it wouldn't fit I forgot what I was too excited.
All right, you're forgiving. Oh there. Okay, at least we got the part All right. Hose clamp is on.

Let's try this again. Anything? Peter Yes, we're good. Okay, oh look at these gauges. they're going crazy.

Wow, they are going okay. They sweep but they okay. Oh there we go. What? How much is fuel pressure? 80? PS 80.

Plus it's like 80s. Geez, that's really high and the pumps never stop running. Yeah, uh okay. let's let's do this.

I'm ready. Sound like we have ignition? No. yeah. okay.

well. it didn't start obviously but it cranks like really nice. So I mean that's that's a thing. I'm I'm down with that.

but it doesn't want to fire at all and we have a ton of fuel pressure. Um, so we have to look at ignition. What's that looks like it might have been? Oh wait, it's going towards. is it going into the MSD Oh yeah.

oh that's like is it the power of the ground? I Think it might be the power. Oh oh no. here's the power. Uh, this is the ground to the MSD Yeah, where's the power? The power is going here somewhere like I have the power wire on my hand right now so I'll just ground this.

Let's just ground that and see what happens. There's a fuse for something. It's definitely sparking when I ground it. Oh so okay.

Cool. Let's ground it all right. So we just connected the ground right here temporarily and we're also going to reduce the fuel pressure here because I don't know of any system that needs to be that high. So anyway, let's try it right there ready.

Yep, foreign. We got smoke coming out of the MSD box right now. as soon as we push around to it. that's not good I wonder if that thing got wet or something? I don't know.

Man, it definitely smells like yeah, that's burnt electrical to goodness. Dang, that's not good. I Think this MSD box has given up the ghost. Uh, and unfortunately, they don't have a male and female connector so we are jumping them together so effectively we're eliminating the entire MSD ignition out of the picture.

but Peter has to create this connection. Uh yeah. just make sure you hold that connection real real good there Peter and not not get eaten up by the time. Yeah, and watch the timing belt.

There's a possibility they're only using that MSD for a two-step so this should just run fine without it. all right. Here we go. Oh my gosh, it was just a bad MSD box.

No way. Peter You must hold the connection better. Well, okay we. Well, now that we know it runs, yeah, let's just chop this up and put the proper connector on there and and be good.

I can do that and we're right at about 50 psi fuel pressure so that's pretty good. We'll have to fine tune that, but she runs. She popped right off. I Mean immediately, it runs good.

There's no there's not even any smoke in the shop. I Mean, we didn't really have it running that long, but uh, let's fix that connector and hear this thing a little bit more. Okay, so here's what we did: We cut off the connector from here. Um, because I don't believe we need this MSD at all.
I Don't know if we're going to replace that I Think we can tune everything we need with the factory. ECU So we have hijacked that connector which is right here. it's spliced in and now we can just simply plug it in. There we go.

All right. cool. We've just eliminated a lot of a lot of I think unnecessary stuff I Don't really think we need a two-step especially not if it requires all of this madness here. and this thing is bad.

So anyway, yeah, we're done with this. but I'm too excited to actually remove it right now. We got to start this thing up again. Yeah, yeah, it might actually rotten.

All right. This is your first time behind the wheel here. Starting to rock like my name is Brian Spillner. All right here we go here.

we go. Thank you. All right. A little belt noise.

Oh All right. All right. hang on. hang on.

hang on. We have some brutal belt noise. Hang on, don't don't start it. Oh, these are super loose.

Well we got. we got to make some adjustments. We loosen up the bolts in the power steering pump so I kind of have to just pry it here and then Peter's gonna tighten it up. We should be good.

Oh yeah, this is good. All right. Let's fire it up again. All right.

Peter Let's do it. No belt squeal. All right. no belt squeal.

That's good. Yeah, little backfire though and some other weird noises. Let's do it again. dude, that sounds Wicked There is a little rattling going on though.

I don't know what that is. Uh, we got 50 psi and fuel pressure. We're good. Okay, this rattling is nothing important I think it's like a bracket or something underneath the car or or that.

Tower Yeah, I Don't think it's anything important. Okay, go ahead. bitter. she runs good dude.

I Know you're nervous right now, but it's I've got HP PSI Oil pressure. These pizzas are awesome by the way. Oh these guys are cool. What are they? What do we got going on here? We got the boost gauge yeah, boost oil pressure flashing Flash and check engine light.

Oh wait, it's gone. Oh that's weird dude. Does this work? Oh man, how is that sensor still working? Oh yeah, this thing is flashing and it is definitely misfiring a little. Where's the oil pressure? Um, that one's the oil pressure? and also it's oh oh.

this is the oil pressure right here. so we're golden on that. But it's not it's it's. definitely not running the best.

Uh okay. yeah. oh hey. the rattle's gone.

Oh, you put the clutch in. Oh, watch out, Gotcha? Okay, all right, all right. hang on. Let's uh.

260. 350. 4. Okay, this one.

Yeah, this one is running cooler than the other ones, so we might have this cylinder not firing as well as the others. although now it's It's kind of cleaning up though because you weren't It wasn't running before without him holding the accelerator. That sounds pretty good. Oh yeah, dude, you hear that.
That was awesome. It runs great for having all that fuel. Sweet. How's temps now? are they? uh, they're evening out.

Yeah, a little hotter in the middle, which sounds about right. All right. Well, this this one. and then this one is the lowest.

Yeah, it's good. It's getting there. you know? Sometimes they're They're not always perfect because you're measuring at a slightly different angle and length of the runner so that that's pretty darn close. This is awesome.

I Can't believe it. Perfect. He came to life. Okay, I'm okay with that.

Yes, no smoke coming out from anywhere. It runs beautifully. Those fuel pumps are still kicking. We gotta turn this off.

They're like hardwired in to run at all times, which is a little ridiculous. Dude, this is sweet. I Can't believe this car was like about seven thousand dollars. Yeah like if you factor in the Acura we should be able to get all the receipts for this.

The guy said he's gonna, he's gonna produce like stacks of receipts. So we'll definitely show you in the next video everything that was put into this car and we are going for a ride. Yeah we gotta figure out that rattle situation. You know we gotta figure that out in the box and the brakes.

We gotta look at the brakes and we got to figure out what the fuel pressure is supposed to be because it was set very high and then our normal kind of Maintenance routine on these abandoned vehicles will flush out a bunch more fluids. Um and all that good stuff. But yeah in the next video we are driving this. Talent TSI This fast and the furious.

like potentially hundred thousand dollar bill like in today's money. Yes wow. I'm I'm amazed I Know a lot of you guys are like how do you find all these deals and blah blah blah. This was dumb luck.

There was nothing more like a lot of the other deals. I you guys email me like half the cars I buy is from you guys like email hey I Found this in my state and it looks cool it's on Craigslist or whatever this was Peter trying to buy like a kind of beat up Acura for why are you even buying that? Just a flip job. Yeah oh yeah and then this this so anyway I Can't believe it. but I hope you guys really enjoyed this uh this Talent adventure and if you did, don't forget.

Thumbs up! Share the video with your friends! Also, we are on a grind to one million subscribers. Uh so by the time you see this we might be over like 900 000. So if you've been watching the videos and you haven't subscribed yet, please do. We should be able to hit a million this year.

That's all I got for you I Can't wait to see you in the next video. Have an awesome day! I don't even know what I'm saying. See you in the next video. see you in the next video Max Plug in some bloopers, legit street cars behind the scenes.
This is our writing process for uh, figuring out what we say. Oh look at all this gas I'm putting into the car that's not gas c85. Oh yeah. E85 This is just like a professional movie studio.

Alex minutes and I have to clear out all of the cars to give Alex enough facing room. Dude, look at that. I'm over here. Yeah, but I'm over here doing this.

Wow! Your sound waves have moved minutes before we're filming the scene. I come up with the whole thing and then he changes it when he actually says yeah. anyway, so none of it matters. None of it matters at all.

This is just me getting exercise right now.
