Lastly, there's the 2001 remake, "Down" aka "The Shaft", available here: youtube.com/watch?v=8ux5kAo00hYT

Starting up the battered Dell laptop antharro 2014-10-07 | This former Inspiron 6400 seems to have taken an absolute battering. However, despite the fact it's somewhat bent and smashed, and its cooling fan has been destroyed, I wanted to see if it would boot up.

Noisy engine in 1995 Mitsubishi FTO GPX (Mivec) antharro 2013-05-20 | This is belt noise from my 1995 V6 Mivec FTO. This noise started after the cam belt and tensioners were replaced. The noise is particularly noticeable before the cooling fan kicks in, and at the 1 minute mark, so you may want to skip to 1 minute if you're impatient!UPDATE: This was indeed an overtensioned cam belt. It has since been adjusted. Now the tappets and valves need adjusting as they're rattling when the engine is hot. I may post a video once I've got them adjusted correctly.
Noisy F20A engine in 92 Accord Aerodeck antharro 2013-04-23 | This is the noisy engine of my 1992 Honda Accord Aerodeck. I'm trying to identify the higher pitched whirring sound heard in this video which is only present when the engine is hot. This sound only started after a cam / timing belt change about a year ago and has become louder over time. I'm pretty sure it's not belt related as the noise appears to come from the top of the engine, not from the side where the belts are. I know the valves need adjusting to quieten down the tapping.Unrelated but also present is a lot of exhaust noise in the engine bay. I have been unable to locate where it is from - over the last year I have fitted an entirely new exhaust system from front to back, including the manifold, downpipes, all gaskets and sealant. The exhaust noise seems to come from the rear of the engine.

Accord Cold Start antharro 2008-01-18 | Starting my '92 Accord Aerodeck after it's been sat for a week in heavy rain. Another video taken in the dark, I'm afraid. I don't get much time during the day to take videos, but if there's interest, then I'll see what I can do. :)
