Video Not Working? Fix It Now

We are on our last few days to try and finish this car so we can drive it home. We are on a journey of taking a 1984 VW Scirocco driving it on an 1100 mile road trip and swapping the engine in the process. in our last two episodes, we picked up the Scirocco and drove it to Florida. We pulled the old CIS Engine and cleaned up the engine bay. We then dropped the new VR6 Engine in worked hard to do the first start-up. The car would not start and we finally diagnosed it as a bad starter. Today we get a new starter and try to start the car for the first time. We then deal with problem, after problem, after problem. Our goal at the end is to drive it from Florida to NC, can we do it? --------------------------------------------------- Elite Motor Works - Jamie's Shop in Sarasota FL https://www.elitemotorworks.net/ Jamies YouTube Channel https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCsPwNcZlxDAxtacYv-wpUvg Humble Mechanic Video! https://youtu.be/kGAI9_sw9io TDC Shop Engine Swap Harness https://www.tdc-shop.com/new-page Eurowise MK1 24 Valve VR6 Engine Swap Kit https://shop.eurowise.com/product-p/ew1072.htm Soloworks Coilovers for VR6 Swap Coilovers for MK1 Golf/Jetta/Scirocco/Cabriolet https://www.shopdap.com/solo-werks-s1vw001-vr-swap.html Soloworks Coilovers for VR6 Swap Coilovers for MK1 Rabbit Pickup https://www.shopdap.com/solo-werks-s1vw015-vr-swap.html Soloworks Coilovers for VR6 Swap Coilovers for MK2 Golf/Jetta | MK3 Golf/Jetta | Corrado | Passat (B3/B4) 2wd https://www.shopdap.com/solo-werks-s1vw002-vr-swap.html Eurowise MK1 VR6 Drive by Wire Pedal Bracket https://shop.eurowise.com/product-p/ew1120.htm Eurowise 02A/02J Manual Clutch Conversion Kit https://shop.eurowise.com/product-p/ew1400.htm Eurowise VR6 Mini Alternator Kit https://shop.eurowise.com/product-p/ew1161.htm ---------------------------------------------------- Shop for VW and Audi Parts Here http://shopdap.com Check out our VW/Audi Shop located in Cornelius NC https://www.daprepair.com/ More info on DAP Reward Credit https://shopdap.com/store/rewardpoints/index/policy/ 0:00 Intro 1:57 More Fuel Leaks 6:20 Exhaust Stuff 6:52 New Starter Problems 10:15 Something Went Well 10:35 New Wheels! / Test Fit 13:07 Clutch Cable / Firewall 14:00 Pedal Bracket 15:55 New Starter / First Start 18:20 Coolant Related Issues 19:08 Marking Bolts / Wiring 20:00 Cutting Shifter 21:00 Startup Attempts & Diagnosing Problems 22:56 Cylinder 6 Dead Misfire 27:40 Last Day Intro 29:38 Finding Injectors at a junkyard 32:34 Playing a Prank ono Paul 34:42 Pauls Wiring / Pedal Progress 37:00 Charles is concerned 37:45 We Have to find another radiator... 39:17 Installing Hood / Checking Clearance 40:15 Pauls Cleaned up Wiring 40:50 Trying to Button up Many Small Details 42:25 New Injector installed / Startup 44:41 Another Coolant leak 46:24 Taking it get gas / Alignment 47:58 Cylinder 1 Dead Misfire 50:05 Testing Junkyard Injector 51:19 Last Startup Attempt 51:49 Test Drive 52:32 We are all Tired 54:00 Driving 700 Miles Home in an untested car 1:02:39 Outro / Future Plans with Car
