Well, I guessed it right. This video appears to be indeed, filmed in Texas. I was watching and wondering where we might be. I put two & two together and came up with an educated guess of Texas, I considered the topography of the land, the vegetation and the miserable gray sky. I had thought, that perhaps, it was somewhere around Marin County wine country, in California, but that awful, gray sky told me, it must be one of those miserably, hellish, hot & humid, cloudy, muggy & buggy "Devil red" states, of the south. Sure enough, I discovered that Austin was listed as the location. Isn't that interesting? Sometimes, my insight amazes me.

Hello there, I see you have a Fiennes full flow oil filter fitted, what is the oil pressure at idle? Do you think the valve tappets need to be adjusted? Is there sufficient oil supply to all 12 rockers? Happy motoring.
@LWVH814 ай бұрын
I do not know enough technical stuff to answer your question but the car runs fabulously and smoothly. The late great Fienes went over the car thoroughly in the previous ownership and I’m benefiting from having such a good car.

Hello again, I've just watched the video again.... and the tappets (valve clearance) really do need adjusting, the engine will be much quieter and more responsive with the correct clearances. I hope you don't mind me commenting. Best wishes.

If one day Rolls Royce management does consider or perhaps is allowed to reproduce and make such similar shape design of classic and antique looked Rolls Royce limousine long wheel based sedans to the market, certainly they are going to be a real sellout and high demands by the Rolls Royce lovers. This classic model is so lovable indeed ❤😂🎉!

My father had one of these in the early 70's. I remember going on a vintage rally & it running the bearings. At about 8 years of age, I helped him rebuild the motor. That was when I learned simple things, like how to use a ring squeezer & a valve spring compressor.
