Any recommendations for if the latch itself is stuck but the seat folds down? 😅
@Shanes_Shed21 сағат бұрын
I think I've had the same problem in the past - normally it was because the latch is full of dirt and the seat won't latch down in place. In that case I freed it up by just cleaning it out and working it with the seat until it eventually cleared and latched.

Between 3000 miles and 4000 miles the oil turned dark amber color. During oil the change chunks of sludge came out I’ve never see that. What on a 135,000 mile truck with religious oil changes at 4000 miles with premium oil. Prior owners used royal purple and I used mobile one.

Funny you say that, I just drained mine today. 3,100 miles on the vrp. I made sure my drain pan was spotless. I was shocked to see chunks of carbon/soot in the oil. I've never seen that before! I've owned my 2019 civic coupe ex-t since new, and I always do 3500 mile oil changes. So this shows just how nasty everything gets even with 3500 mile oil changes.

@Shanes_Shed Thank you very much. Perhaps the oil pump is not working properly. A recent measurement showed 1 bar with an engine temperature of 87 degrees.
@Shanes_Shed6 күн бұрын
Somewhere in the 80-90 degree range is where I’ve typically seen the oil temps when doing typical driving around with minimal load. With a load on like towing a trailer oil temps should bump up to sit around 100deg and when working hard uphills is where it will get into the 120s. Also with those higher engine oil temps the coolant temp is up around 110. I would not expect to see high oil temps without also seeing higher than normal coolant temps

@Shanes_Shed11 күн бұрын
Generally they shouldn't weep. Its just an oring seal so there is a chance that the seal is not quite the correct size (being a non genuine part), there could be some dirt/debris in the seal area preventing proper sealing, there's always the possibility of damage done to the oring during installation. Theres also the possibility that it could be an issue on the injector itself with damage to the oring seat area (unlikely I would think). Unfortunately it would most likely require the individual leak off line to be removed from the problem injector for inspection.

I learned how to tig aluminum the old school way with pure tungsten. I was recently having issues trying to weld aluminum with a new machine. Apparently the new technology in todays machines doesn't allow the use of pure tungsten anymore. If you have an inverter type machine you should be using ceriated tungsten.

@makingmistakeswithgreg21 күн бұрын
Aluminum is quite the fun material to weld. When everything goes well it’s fun, when things go bad it’s frustrating to say the least lol. I have a couple tips for aluminum, hope they help: You want to keep a slightly longer arc gap than steel, aluminum will jump to the tungsten otherwise. Settings wise (unsure on what you can adjust) you want to be at 60 to 200hz (higher narrows the bead and lessens penetration) a/c balance around 70-75% EN (25-30% EP or cleaning). Make sure to prep the material super clean and wipe it with acetone to clean the oils off. Beyond that aluminum likes a lot of heat at first, medium heat in the middle of the bead, and no heat at the end. Use the foot pedal a lot to achieve that. You will get the hang of it in no time, keep up the practice 👍. Good catch on the leaky gas hose. Edit: I almost forgot, always fill in craters at the end of welds or they will crack. Often times they crack before the weld cools. Aluminum is hot short sensitive, so you want to avoid heating it super hot and letting it cool fast (aka molten weld pool to solid metal). Try to ease on/off the heat.

Thanks Shane for the excellent and detailed video. I just noticed today when changing front brake pads on my 2010 ZH Outlander, the inner CV boots have torn on both sides with grease escaping. The car has done 400K kms and not having any issues with the outer CV joints (no noise) so thinking of following your procedure to change the inner boots but on both sides. Looks pretty straight forward on the drivers side as you’ve shown. Is it the same on the passenger side? Wondering if there’s a snap ring to lock in the axle on the other side. I’ve got the manual gearbox. Hope you can help with some advice. Thanks again. Clear and easy to follow video. Craig

Hi Shane. I decided on the expensive option and install new L and R axles. I just wanted to ask if the R axle and extension with bearing can be easily split or do I have to find a new extension with bearing piece. I’m thinking there’s a snap ring holding the extension and R axles together. In your video, you didn’t have to do this. But the new part will come with the CV axle minus the extension/ bearing. So I’ll have to seperate and fit the extension to the new axle. Thinking of riding through the centre next year to the Kimberly’s and heading south to Perth and across the Nullarbor. So will keep you in mind for that beer! Yes, Blue Mountains is still pretty nice place to live and raise the kids. Sydney is too busy for my liking. Craig
