Episode 50: Tim & Ian fix Tim's beloved old Calibra

This week, the boys are in Tim's garage fixing one of his old Calibra. In this hour long special, Tim and Ian work on "Charlie Four", a red Calibra Tim has has owned for more than 16 years. It developed a random fault where the voltage would drop off anything over 3,000 RPM. There is just one problem (or at least that what the boys thought...) - they took the alternator off two weeks ago and now they can't remember how it all goes back together. So, will they fix it? Will "Charlie Four" run? And will there be any other problems? The answer to all three is... Recorded April 2026 yLUXMJ1uoycOBnsjXe7b
