Some unusual advice , in my opinion, generally if an engine is running hot unless the static cooling system and water pump is very efficient it can actually get hotter when you pull over so as long as you’re not working it hard generally better to continue driving. equally in the event of a water leak generally the water temperature will suddenly drop low as it is not able to sense Steam in the system so the temperature high is not necessarily going to be good advice in the event of water leak

Great promo! And great music behind it, where could i find it? Jm

Direct Air is better than the EP system.

What year was this video made?

It's a testament to Van Hool's quality that Leyland chose them to equip their demo vehicle. It's sad to see such a reputable manufacturer disappear from the market.

Is that Jeff Bird who later did the Jonkoping hill test with CM’s Brian Weatherley in old and newer 16’s? Always think of that every time I go up it.

Let's connect one of the simplest and most reliable diesel engines (Gardner) to an electro mechanical hydraulic and pneumatic controlled transmission. At least the passengers have heat when the bus stops moving...

60s~late 80s Hong Kong double deck buses used to be equipped with these gear sticks/semi-auto gear box

Worked on venturas tigers as an apprentice in Melbourne Australia. They were leaf sprung when volvo b10ms and Scania l113s were airbags. The tl11 was a beast of a motor but agricultural. This video is well after Australia stopped getting them. Not many videos on them though?

I have a 8LXB fantastic engine

Ulsterbus Tours used these Coaches for a lot of years.

Looks Like The Ulsterbus Tours Colours in the 80's & 90's

Por favor 🙏 sube más del Volvo fh12, pero se la segunda versión año 2000 en adelante

Mecánica a la vieja escuela. Y el sistema neumático muy interesante

Lovely

I remember driving a. Royal tiger full executive .with A rear engine ,manual gearbox all cable linkage. Gears nightmare until Engine & gear box warmed up , the air accelerator took a lot of getting use to on long motorway journeys a great coach to drive.

London Transport liked theirs. Funny their Daimler Fleetlines which usually had them, mostly had Leyland 0680s fitted, yet their Leyland Titans and Olympians all had Gardners.

If the engine cranks but will not start, check the stop valve. Good advice but how about first checking to see if there’s any fuel in the tank?

With regards to 'Non Starts' on Titan buses, we found a number of vehicles where the fuel delivery pipes had rubbed together, causing failure on the road. The armoured flexible pipes also gave trouble too. Some of the pipes were either collapsed inside, or rubbing on parts of the body. If you felt around the flexy pipes, you'd also gash your fingers if you were unlucky. So give me an RT or Routemaster bus anytime. Kind regards to all on here. Thanks for the interesting film.👍

6LX and 6LXB's .. takes me back to my apprentice mechanic days in the mid 60's .. Guy Invincibles and Big J's .. loved these engines and cared for them over many thousands of miles on day and night trunking work .. hardly ever needed a spanner on them .. satisfying to change oil and filter .. never broke down.

What an absolute faff to replace a window! In places like Glasgow where windows were bricked on a nightly basis in the 1980s and even to this day- this design would not work! 😂

hi there, great engine, good to see its got a Burgess oil bath air cleaner to keep things in check

Great coach had them on Alder Valley London link very comfortable to drive

I like how we are given the sequence in which you’ll destroy the gearbox’s clutch plates if you tow it.

hi great video,Gardner engines are good, love the Burgess air cleaner on the side of it, 60s style

The Volvo bus is similar to the Dennis version that was available as well. Stagecoach bus (owns Magicbus in Manchester), also had 3 axle Dennis buses before being sent to Kenya for several years. Those buses came back, and were used for a while until Stagecoach bought low floor versions due to DDA rules.

The first Cummins engine lynx we had delivered required diff changes . They were too fast pulling away.. Taller gearing was required.

Best engine in the world

Lovely vehicle We had two tl11s in Colombo Sri Lanka operated by Ceylon Transport Board. Body built by Unicar Spain and with hydrocyclic gear box Both were scrapped. One is still lying in derelict state and there was a talk to say that it's going to preseved. Two registration numbers are 30-7501,30- 7502

Thank god for Allison Transmissions haha

I used to work on these at WMPT. DUDLEY GARAGE.. after MOT repairs. I would take them for The test. I loved driving the Lynx. 2 Had 90 MPH out of them..Cummins engine.. If you held the 1st gear button down and floored it let the button go these beast s would wheel spin...

Can I be honest for you I’am A Very Very Very Very Very Very Very Very Very Very Very Very Very Very Very Very Very Big fan of those Gardner Engines.

These old tutorials are soooooooooo cool now 😎👍 No DPF filters, EGR valves, catalytic converters and engine management ECU's to complicate everything 😂 The good old reliable days 🇬🇧👍

You have not lived until you have thrown a Lynx down a country lane with "NOT IN SERVICE" dialled up on the knucle grater and just enjoyed driving. I preferrerd the Ambassador but you didn't get paid to drive one of those unfortunately.

A Driver doing that? Not in my day, lol!

This engine is good even as a generator

That is made from Hong Kong is those Leyland buses?

Why does the bus in de Video have a VanHool Logo and not a Layland logo?

Brilliant video. Very informative. Especially the brake band adjustment. I feel most bus companies don’t follow this procedure to the letter and their drivers are definitely not trained how to change gear properly. 😬

This shows why , there was such a problem with ear engagement… far too complicated a system.

We have one but it's a 6xl with A4 speed box and shifter what can we do to make it better

Brilliant Video In An Ideal World But Which Large Operator Of All These Variants Had The Time Or The Man Power To Keep A Vehicle Off The Road For That Length Of Time
