I’m really taking this one to heart … Going to the beach every day … you can really get some corrosion just about everywhere… have you done a video about the old hitting the starter with a hammer trick … it got me to the parts store .. then I drove around with the new starter fir a few weeks till I changed it … I appreciated your Honda ECM reset video…Thanks have a good weekend ..!

    2
  109. As a owner of a 350 I truly appreciate this video …and will probably watch it 20 time as I burned up a distributor on my G-20 van … come to find out the engine ground was a small strap on the back of the motor to the body and of course the connection was pretty badly corroded .. and as far as we could tell it was the only engine ground ……so ended up running a 6 Gauge cable from the motor to the frame … hopefully solving that issue …hopefully…
