I always loved the first Scorpio! Enormous and futuristic. And what a cool name!

old cars man... use it for years no fucking problem. todays cars, 1 little bump and its 5k $ for repair

if there ever was zombie apocalypse, and you needed a car, you two would be safe!

we recognize the 90s with this car Ford will never die 🇺🇸❤️

good battery

old fords never die

90s cars will never let you down

From 1987 to 1996 Ford and VW in Brazil have made some Frankstein cars, VW's engine under Ford's hood, i.e. But there is one good car, Ford Versailles, that inherited this Scorpio dashboard design and steering weel. As in Brazil we didn't have the Scorpio, now I understand "where" they've got some tricks of this video european car! Great video, congrats!

1988 Ford haven't turn for 4 years long time got it running about time awesome mechanic men love this video keep up the good work friend bless you

Хорошее авто из эпохи где было качество и на нём не экономили, как сейчас!!!!

My brother have one V6 Ford Scorpio 2.9 24V cosworth, I love it!!

One of the comfitabalest seats I ever sat in the Scorpio, the leather seat was like something else. I remember these well, had the VM motoroi engine in

Good battery, smoking plus + accu cables at 2:13. Keep those cold start video's coming.

Моя первая машина, Скорпио 1986, 2 литра. Покупал в 1995, 6 лет служил верой и правдой. Потом поменял на Мерседес 124. Но это совсем другая история...

I`m driving my scorpio every day. It is 1990 2.9V6.

Hi i didn t knew about the channel till yestarday and that s because i take the task of restart a Chevrolet Chevette (the brazilian version) of 1989 that was 3 years stoped in my garaje. A good battery a spit of fuel in the carburator an after four trys it started! So this is my new favorite channe,l congrats from Uruguay!

FORD SCORPIO is forever !!!

Я так понимаю тачьку забрали на запчасти. Вот ето качество. И комплектация ЧИА, ранних годов выпуска с листвой побокам в кузове хечбек. Просто мечта.... Столько простояла, а множество электроприборов работоспособны! Люблю Форды, а особенно Скорпионы

I love the sound :) Good quality on your videos!

Loud from the outside but quiet in the inside. Good sound proofing used by Ford.

1988, the Car is the same age as me, 35 Years! Great car

These cars were huge inside (hatchback version were the best as interior space.. they are some kind of living room). Except of camshaft wearing at 4cyl engines and big rubber joint on the front wishbone, there was no problems at all. That diesel were very sluggish.

I'd love to have an old Ford Scorpio

Super classic car from the past!

these videos remind me to these Davidsfarm cold start videos. including prime for a good time :)

In Sweden I’ve not seen one Ford scorpio in years but it’s a great car and a comfortable one too.

This just reminded me that the Ford Scorpio also came in Diesel engine form in Europe, (I’m not sure if we had that option in the U.K.?) I like it because it’s a beautiful car and with that extra economy too! 👍👍👍

He needs to get a move on, He has an airport run in half an hour

Sounds very quiet inside considering how loud it is from the outside.

If you notice the rev counter red lines at 6000 rpm.... Either the dash was replaced or it used to have a petrol engine in it from the factory .

my father still has this one, around the same mileage 280k km, needs valve seal replacement, and will do another 200k easily.

1:56 leave me aLOOOOOONNNNEE!!1

I've had a 1.6 Sierra sitting 5 years in grass n under trees. started well after 10 mins and ran perfect. Sadly i scrapped it after a month. Had 466.000kms on it

I just love much this beautiful sounds ❤❤❤

Nice Video. That battery you're using is a real hero. I looked up the spec's on the engine and you could almost say the starter motor has more horse power than the engine does. 69hp is not a lot seeing's the car is 1340kg would be very slow.

Nice engine

I remember when this shape came out, I always preferred the Mk2 Grannie.. It was much like when the ‘jelly mould’ Sierra replaced the MkV Cortina, there was plenty of tutting lol

So pleased to see this ! An engine you could repair yourself without all this bloody ECM rubbish

Only a few of these cars left in Uk ..

I never saw a wisard before. Respectufully from France.

Quick Carl , hold the engine , because it will fly away !

Who else was waiting for the sleeve on his jacket to get wrapped around the fan belt??

Purtroppo auto così non ne fanno più! 👍😭

And it turned out very nice

Never was as fond of the Mk3 Granny Scorpio as the Mk2 but they were still super nice cars. My Uncle used to have a white J reg Ghia with all the bells and whistles. Lovely car...until he scrapped it in part exchange for a Honda Accord. 😒

90% of engine wear takes place at start up an of u rev the hell outa the engine that won't help longivity. U my friend have helped knacker an engine up.

6 yrs ago ...! Ford & Mazda normally not heavy maintenance break down , just the wear n tear items , such as fuel hoses , caburator gasket , water pump , tyre bearing ...! Still beauty just need cleaning ...! i wonder wheres the vehicle TODAY ...! 22.06.2021

До того как вы залезли в машину стартер прожил почти 30лет,после вас ему от силы неделя осталась...

Flexiny you and your team are the best :D

Satisfying good old Ford

I love the work you do on these old ones just to get them started up? So what do you do once you get them running? Sell them? Salvage them? Repair them?

What do you do with the cars once you have started them up?

Это старый , добрый ФОРД СКОРПИО. Надёжный трактор.

The Peugeot 2.5 engine’s bottom end was bomb proof , but the cylinder head was aluminium and that gave no end of problems . The cylinder head wasn’t thick enough and as a result they gave head gasket problems . Peugeot tried giving the head bolts different torque settings to try and get the gasket to hold a bit better, but the heads cracked and went porous in the exauhst port or the pre combustion chamber . If the head was made out of cast iron , it would have been an excellent engine , but unfortunately the aluminium head lets it down horribly . It appears that this car was dumped because of said problems.

Remember that back in 90s my dad had one these, once we had a topic about cars and he told me that Scorpios has the best rear seats for banging girls, ever since he told me that, I look different to these cars, I like them even more + he was right about back seats and specious interior. 😁

Scorpa oli mugav liikur... olen omanud kahte sellise kerega. Üks neist oli sama mootriga 2,5D (Peugeotilt pärit diisel) ilma turbota...suht uimane ja kuumakartlik ja teine oli 2,8i bensukas, sellega oli juba ägedam lasta, aga janune oli. Kokkuvõttes hea masin kuid kahjuks kui pidevalt roostetõrjet ei tee siis saab kere otsa :D

Sounds nice

It kindly fires the bravo, but for a long time it turns on the starter and will burn the starter so it can break the battery.

My dad use to own one of those scorpios back in a day when I was a teenager in Ukraine . I use to steel it from garage and take girls for a ride in it... on day cop caught me but he was stupid and did not understood that it was not my car (It was same last name in dads registration and my driver license only different initials) those were the days.... love the car - it was HUGE inside

I am absolutely enthusiastic! This car is so rare. Is it a licence-built Peugeot engine or a genuine Ford unit? I remember they had a non-turbocharged direct injection 2.5 engine but that was in the Ford Transit.

Red lining at 6 thou for a oil burner that’s amazing mmm

If got a 1.8 petrol focus with 176.000 and it still runs sweet.

I have Sierra MK1 ohc 2,0 1984. Cold start after 10 years. I start engine after like 5 minutes. Just with new battery. With old gas.

Best engine is the 2.0 dohc👌❤

I was going to grow some sunflowers next year but i think i will copy you and grow some Scorpios instead

A lot of car for your money back in the day, very comfy and plenty of toys. Shame they love to rust.

Diesels very rare in these.

Ford Scorpio and Ford Sierra is best

Sounds like a Transit Engine this. Very rare thought 2.5 Diesels and there fast cars

У меня такой же в гараже, только заводится с пол тычка

thermostat to replacement ?

When was the car last used in normal service?

Old Peugeot engine. Solid but needs a turbo for the Granada.

Is this the same engine as used in the transit from the same era? love your videos btw.

Is this a original diesel ghia with a/c and trip computer? If it is, I'm very interested, how trip computer calculates fuel

One careful owner Damon Hill

Buen coche ese...

11:38 vrum vrum *vRuMMMM* .

If that sleeve gets caught in the fan ,it will rip his arm off.🙈

what did you do with those pipes at approx. 4 m? thanks - great work btw. Cheers

Think I had one of those engines in my ldv van

Mialem kiedys takie cos teraz bhm chętnie kupil

Tough battery

❤

How do you start that up like outside

immortal Peugeot indenor engine xd3p, in italy is common used in uaz 469

That's a Peugeot Diesel engine?

nice

Good reliable car

schade um die vielen schönen Autos. Solche Schätze gelangen immer in die Händen von Taugenichtsen

Diesel Ghia! LOL HAHAHA CLASS!

This scorpio need a full restprations.still can be used

Here in Brazil diesel cars are prohibited by our government, can this car go back on the streets again? What country is this car in?

Why no starting fluid ever :l

Очень надеюсь, что вы залили хотя бы дистиллированную воду!!!!

is that the same diesel thats in the transit?

Do you guys do this for fun mainly

is this the 2.4 york engine? looks like it? the fore runner to the 2.5 di

That's a typical Peugeot diesel engine as fitted to the Granada and Sierra the ldv wasn't much better fitted the 2.3 non turbo in a transit mk2 and only run it on veg oil for 2 years till the body fell apart then sold it on on its last mot with us

2.5D 69 HP ?
