I was demonstrating balancing a coin on a running RR Shadow engine to a friend. Then we tried some other stuff. https://youtu.be/uModNx-jnCM |

Patrick R, I filmed a companion video but it was pretty late and dark and didn't turn out well. I will film it tomorrow if I get a chance. What I filmed was me trying to balance a piece of 50 x 100 x 150mm timber on the valve cover of my diesel MK1 VW Golf. Did it balance, ... not a chance. |

Ross, quick fix. Clamp the engine mounts up tight then pump the tyres up to 65lbs, vibes are gone on idle! More noise though. |

Patrick and Patrick, I was eventually able to get it to balance, but I had to turn the engine off. |
