V12 Piston Dance - BMW E31 850i - Project Marseille: Part 7

In the episode of project Marseille, work on the M73B54 V12 engine continues. We remove and clean the pistons, replace rod bearings, dismantle and clean the oil pump, refurbish the power steering pump and carbon canister for fuel vapors.

Sreten is a freaking jeweler. The amount of care and dedication he put into this rebuild is overwhelming. Hope she starts up flawlessly on the first try!

[DashDrones]

I was miserable until I opened my email and there it was. A wonderful message from Patreon, more V12 goodness..

[IkeVMAX]

This is not just an another YouTube video, this is therapy after an hard workday! Bless you Streten!

[stevebi]

The hardest part about watching your videos is getting to the end and realizing I'm gonna have to wait 2 weeks or more for the next one. I seriously enjoy watching your content more than any network TV show. Keep up the great work. Aloha from Maui.

"Check the clearance, Clarence!"

As if Sreten just snuck a reference to the movie Airplane into an engine rebuild video! Nicely done!

[lxjmwoh]

The carbon fiber towels never get old. It makes me laugh every time I hear it.

[davidnitschke]

There is not any old BMW that can threaten Sreten.

[erqadezz]

Still can't belive you don't have 1 million subscribers man.. love your work and passion for cars 😁

[grishgnchegng]

I'm glad to se our guy Sreten back at it with the carbon fiber towels, really shows the dedication needed

[petermuller]

your level of detail and work ethic is truly something else. first changing out the o-ring around the e39 oil dipstick, now putting special lube under the bolts to make the torque more percise... a car rebuilt by you truly deserves a special badge, right on the trunk, and in 50 years time bmw's rebuilt buy you will be the most special and sought after models of each generation.

HAHA my 6 year old heard your “cooooming up” intro and flew down the stairs to ask if it was project Malaga… absolutely blew me away, never noticed him paying attention whilst I watched your videos before, he’s sat next to me watching as I type this! 👌🏻🫡

Quick tip from personal experience with ultrasonic cleaner which I believe it will make a lot of difference: boil water with the kettle and pour it inside the main bath - (don’t expect those “home use” ultrasonic cleaners to heat up), place the parts in poly bags mixed with water and cleaning liquid ( you don’t waste too much cleaning liquid and you achieve better result).
Keep up the good work, greetings from Greece!

This channel is among the best Youtube content out there, regardless of whether or not you like working on cars. Great job and hope you keep this going for a long time.

Top- mar is the most famous polish brand when it comes to engine heads and they have already done heads for many polish projects.

[arthurlekov]

This channel is where you see quality over quantity. It is the best channel out there, no doubt about it. The long episodes and the attention to detail. It is perfect! Bravo

[danh]

I can’t even begin to say how much pleasure I get from these videos. It has changed the way I work, truly inspirational.

[diliqn]

I am still wondering how you have only 397K subs. All the auto enthusiasts, alongside with bmw maniacs are maybe not even interested in this videos. This channel should be the bible for the DIY engineers. I am a benz guys but always watch your videos, either with coffee in the morning, or beer in the evening :). Keep up the good work, and greetingс from Bulgaria брате.

I not only admire your skills but your humour is hilarious. I also like that you’re not taking yourself too seriously 🎉

[stalthyone]

You are a goddamn legend, Sreten. I haven't seen anyone care for a BMW as much as you do. You have put your heart and soul into every project, and we’re the better for it. Thanks for continually bringing us the best content on YouTube. You look the part air that lovely BMW lab coat, my friend. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise. Project Marseille is looking to surpass the perfection of Project Chicago, and I want to see all that goodness! Stay safe, and we’ll see you in the next chapter of this lovely story.

Great to hear that TOP-MAR will do your heads, great choice!
