Supercharged LS Patrol EP6 - FIRST START GOES WRONG?

Published 2024-06-26
Once the fabrication is buttoned up on the car we can hit the key for the first start but it doesn't go to plan! Sometimes the small things can always catch you out and it's a good reminder not to use ya brain and don't forget the simple things. Luckily it was as simple as adding some more ATF and we were good to go!

Dave is such a fabricating wizard, so cool to see. Love laserwelder.
-
23:38 You need to flush at least (12-14) Litres of trans fluid through 6L80E + Oil Cooler, if you have installed transmission dry, as 4 Litres is bugger all oil to fill torque converter, pump, and for valve body and all solenoids to work properly.

Welcome back to the Woody and gearboxes not getting along factory....
-
This is a cool build and everyone makes cock ups. The american specs for a 6L80 is 6.5 quarts for a pan off service and 12.2 quarts for a dry fill. That's 11 litres for a dry fill.
-
Ah, the good old not enough fluid when you think there should be enough fluid malarkey!!! Had similar on a ZF 5HP19 cos mechanic hadn't followed the BMW fill procedure and the box was 2 litres low. It's alll a learning curve my man 😉
-
Love ya work Woody, never stop learning ay 😂 mistakes are what makes this channel authentic and I'm here for it!
-
Great update Woody. Thanks for the video.
-
Online docs say the 6L80/90 take 10 US quarts which in normal units is just over 9 US litres then you have whatever the lines to and from the trans cooler contain. My brother forgot to take into account the extra when he fitted a trans cooler to his 1989 VW T3. Thankfully just before firing it up and setting off I reminded him.
-
Always awesome to see some Aussie made products 👍😎
-
Interesting and imformative as always! Thanks Woody
-
Love your work Woody! As a mechanic myself, I also know the love hate relationship with cars, but you’re doing great, keep it up bro.
-
I did exact same thing with my Barra turb AU, serviced the btr while doing the engine swap, then couldn’t get enough fluid back in it when finally got the engine fired up, got that sorted then pulled it out on sloped driveway and the level dropped with the gradient and lost drive again 😂 hate the whole “warm it up to 50c” thing, hard when you have no exhaust in a residential area haha
-
Iv been enjoying this build. Another good vid👍🏻 Cheers Woody.
-
Another great video. I'm enjoying the collaboration with your mates. 👍
-
These newer automatics with no dipstick are a bugger. Checking the level and top up used to be a simple thing.
-
Good job Woody! I enjoy the show, thanks for the hard work!
-
Turbo Yoda hell yeah, Nug loving Woody's direction too
-
Nothing is forever Woody has pivoted it's something different, I for dig it.

Cheers woody and skid factory family! 😊🤘🤠👍
