  3. Depending on the amount of force applied. If you really need to crank on the bolts, yes, you definitely have a chance of cracking it. All things in moderation!

  4. Here's to fast healing! Be sure to check out "South Main Auto Channel" ! Eric O will also remove your attention from your situation for a bit!

  5. He explained it in the video.

  6. You know why Chevys have duel exhaust? . . . . . When they stop running, you can use them as a wheelbarrow!😂😅

  7. On lids that cover the whole filter. This one the side of the filter is exposed either way.

  8. Found your channel about a week or so ago. Enjoying watching and learning. I'm a 96.4% DIYer. I'm leaning to become more methodical and intentional with my repairs! Just found a caliper on my '03 Forester that the pistons were sneezed. Pulling the caliper apart, cleaned things up. And was able to push the pistons back in with my hand.

  9. The purpose of evacuating the system is to remove moisture. Your system had a complete failure. Many parts replaced. The system was opened to the atmosphere longer. Holding a vacuum that long also checks all of the connections for leaks. This system only had the service valves replaced and the low side switch which has its own check valve. Very little to none moisture to remove.

  10. Way to take care of the customer!

  11. Did I miss a few videos on why you're replacing the drivetrain on your truck? 🤔

  15. Oh, by the way, make sure you tighten the big wire on the alternator! If you don't, it'll get ready hot and burn the red cover!

  16. Ray, may I post a link to my playlist of my late father's 1958 Plymouth Suburban that I'm working on getting it back on the road? Picture of the car is in my profile picture.

  17. Don't wait too long to start your private piolets license! I've always have had an interest in flying. However, years tick by. I'm currently 56 and don't see it happening.

  18. Just learned about the UV yellow dot!

  19.  @RainmanRaysRepairs  okay, you're aware of the technique.

  20. Successful bolt extraction/removal is a learned skill. Depending on who you learned it from determines your technique and rate of success. Living in salt roads MN, heating is pretty much expected to not break fasteners. Induction heaters have come down in cost. If a bolt/stud twists off, an extractor isn't going to apply enough torque without physically changing something with the condition of the threads. Heating to the rescue! However, being a small YouTube creator, I totally understand putting yourself out there for public criticism.

  21. Isn't there still pressure in the fuel line?

  22. I learned something today!

  23. Thanks for the tip on cutting the hold down strap after mounting the lower mount! Seems obvious once a guy sees it!

  24. Imitation is the best form of flattery! You're welcome Dr O!

  25. I replaced 5 studs in an auto parts store's parking lot using minimal tools! They had been over torqued big time! Could feel a vibration increasing in the front?

  26. How is flat rate determined for this job? Alldata?

  27. Billy, you may like seeing the first car I remember my dad owning and the first one I drove! My '58 Plymouth Suburban. I have a playlist.

  31. When "Gut Feelings" exceed the diagnostic flowcharts!

  32. Soy based insulation covering the wires must be yummy to the rodents!

  33. How much would the shops diagnostic charge have been? Now, there's a unknown brand sensor in there which might cause more issues down the road... A good, probably OEM sensor, in the garbage.

  34. "Goes where ever it fits." Unless it's O2 sensors!

  35. Notice how dry those threads were under the nut? Doesn't look like it did the penetrating job. I believe once the nut is broken loose then the oil will get into the threads. 🤔

  36. Got bug spray on a watch crystal. Yep, it melted it!

  37. When I see uneven pad wear, especially on the inboard pad, I check for stuck caliper piston. The piston keeps the pad pressed against the rotor and eats the pad.

  38. Will they let you video your visit? 🤔

  39.  @Pointlesschan  yes, living in Minnesota we see rust also!

  40. Interesting Sabb puts the AC Hi and Low test ports together and easy access! However, no caps on either port!

  41. I have a feeling the "forgotten" bolt actually fell out because the threads were MIA.

  42. Looks like you're definitely feeling better!

  43. Moderately entertained! ✔️

  44. Soldering aid tip. Take two alligator clips. Take a piece of ridge/stiff wire and bend it in a U shape. Connect both clips to the ridge wire. Now you have a helping hand.

  45. Just so everyone knows, realignment of a clamp in its old witness mark isn't required. Just makes it look better. Same thing with the oil filling cap. LoL 🤣😆

  46. I'll give her a sub!

  47. Hey, she'll do great! Will be fun to learn about you two as we have learned about Eric and Vanessa.

  48. My 1958 Plymouth uses lug bolts also. FYI

  49. I'm not watching the majority of his videos for "how to"! I'm watching for his presentation! EDIT Thinking about it more, I have learned tricks here there for efficiency!
