Classic Rover P4 Restoration | Rebuilt Engine Install + First Start

It's time to install my Classic Rover P4s recently rebuilt 2.6 IOE straight six engine, back into my 1959 Rover. Before we get to that though, we need to test our freshly rebuilt motor with a first start, and remedy a few teething problems, notably our gearbox leaking oil everywhere. As well as this, we'll be setting up a base tune on our freshly installed engine using a strobe timing light to set ignition timing, as well as setting the fuel mix on our restored SU HD6 carburettor. Ezzy the dog will, as always, be along for the ride - so grab a cup of tea and enjoy the latest installment of this classic Rover Restoration - all in the style of ASMR, with the gentle noise of the Cheshire suburbs and the gentle ringing of spanners to keep you entertained.
