WIN THE LAND ROVER ⬇️ https://raffall.com/421495/enter-raffle-to-win-land-rover-defender-or-10000-hosted-by-mrhewes Our Gulf War Centurion 165 AVRE has a serious problem… This particular tank was used during the Gulf War to help clear the infamous “Highway Of Death”, but after years of service the old Rolls Royce V12 engine is now fighting for survival. Although it still runs, something inside the engine has catastrophically failed. One of the valve seats has dropped out causing huge amounts of smoke, major loss of power and oil being thrown everywhere — creating a very real fire risk every time the engine is started. In this video we begin the enormous task of removing the entire engine from the tank. What sounds simple quickly turns into a massive operation involving hours of stripping components, disconnecting systems and preparing the vehicle for one of the biggest lifts we’ve attempted in the workshop. Using our Chieftain Armoured Recovery Vehicle, we finally crane the damaged engine out and start investigating just how bad the destruction really is… Can this historic Gulf War machine be saved with a replacement New Old Stock engine?

"Is that 12 mil?" "It is now". Engineering excellence.
Jack's tee-shirts never fail to make me laugh...
The machines are awesome, but the best part of this channel is the banter! Love to hear the lads take the piss
had to giggle a little bit at the comment about so much oil the americans are about to invade.

You should use your swift cut plasma cutter to make a large wheeled oil collection pan to fit under a tank.
Run the engine up OUTSIDE. Then if any fuel floats are stuck they will be simple to repair.
Pulling a literal tank engine out with forklifts and brute force is peak mechanical content! 💪
“ I am completely stuck”…..ya, lots of videos start like that 😂
Great idea by Ted to drop his tennis ball under the gearbox thus ensuring that the job is definitely completed.
I love Jack’s YouTube inappropriate T-shirts!
I'm pleased to admit that I'm never surprised at what kind of T-shirt Jack is wearing.
No Train Drivers were strained during the production of this video.
Of course you're gonna drive a tank through an house. Mr. Hewes moment of all time
dont risk it, run the "new" engine outside unless you enjoy doing things twice
Ted is the safest amongst the whole bunch lol
🎶" so Charlie and me , had another cup of tea and then we went home."🎶
Loving Jack T shirt, he should has a spin off shop just from them
You lads make us proud to be British!
Is that a 12mill, it is now 🙈🤣🤣
