Anyone ever tried this on a patrol?
I would love to know what size tyre would be needed to get enough momentum to turn over a TD42.
No more flat battery worries as long as you had a jack and a length of rope.
Enjoy.

Bloody hell that's tuff!!! Wouldn't wanna get my arm caught in the rope tho :-0
Never actually seen that before, good trick...lol
I fixed your embed issue. Sometimes Youtube gives weird links that you can't embed and you need to actually copy the link for the URL in your browser rather then the embed URL they give you on screen.
Youtube uses 2 forms of links, a long link or a short link, short link is displayed as default I believe, you need to use the long link, for some reason Vbulletin does not like short links.Quote:

looks like the replacement starter motor has seen plenty of use, too - nicely frayed at the end.
aahahh I use to push my old MK down the road when starter played up and jump start. Was a lot stronger back then
I wish I had seen the vid before
hahahah that is funny as hell! Hell Yeah that would work on the TD42. The GQ is a little easier to push though so jacking it up and having a go is probably not really necessary unlike the 40 tonner they did that too. hahaha only in the Developing World would you see that stuff. Thats great.
That was awesome!
Lol thats definitely different
I will never winge about starting the lawn mower again
WoW!! That's pretty damn impressive
That's a good trick when you run out of battery in somewhere no one reach you
3 speed on gearbox lock diferecial and now is it possible ;)
so keen to give this a go! thats awesome!
Both that truck and car are probably lacking a fair bit of the ol compression haha.
Same rope used for electric outboards :-)
is there any way of starting a auto what happens if ya out bush and the starter dies what ya do i know you could start some old auto mercs by towing how do you start your patrol if the starter dies
indian engineering as its finest
Wow :P Never thought about this :) Should try once, just to see how easy it is :P
HAHA classic!
I saw this done once on an Israeli M-325 Commandcar. It was hard work before it started eventually! Might try it on my Safari one day.
More gold from 3rd world countries, who came first and second BTW ???
