I just double checked and my 1999 TA and 2001 Formula both have a push pin Christmas tree clip thingy in the middle under the t-top bar. Maybe the hard top cars don't have that retainer?

Good video. My friend ordered the replacement headliner from Classic Industries years ago. It looked good, but it was so heavy that it kept sagging down. OEM is normally better.

Its good tool win you are alone to see

WAY easier to slide in from the hatch, without bending...

Extremely helpful. Thank you for making this video. 1200 cuts and scrapes later I finally got it changed out.

Excellent video bro!!

Thanks for the video. How long did it take for MR COOL service tech to reach out to you? They’ve been telling me I’m in Que for a tech to reach out for about a week now

Hola sirve para programar llaves de Renault?

I love the Innova 5210. Fix several cars with the aid of this cheap scanner. 5210 does not show real time misfires .It will show a code misfire on a certain cylinder. That is not good enough. I Need fuel trims and the ability to see a small misfire. I have no idea which scanner that does not cause buyers remorse . Must show trims and misfires. 5210 shows fuel trims 5210 has many great options. The ability not to observe misfires is a very weak link. I need that option for sure. I could purchase the 500 plus scan tools. I do not want to spend 500 + dollars doing diy work. I also want a scanner that does not constantly need updates are wireless connectivity

You need to improve your spray painting technique. Additionally, that gun has high air consumption. The gun is not applying the clear properly. It's a lie that the first coat of clear looks bad. The reality is that it should look pretty good and the second one, which is wetter, should improve it. As I said before, the gun settings and technique must be reviewed. The problem with doing things in our homes, such as painting a car, is that we do not have an appropriate guide to do it. And learning only from mistakes is costly economically speaking. People who make videos on KZbin and say that anyone can do it easily are liars. Preparing the paint gun, knowing its different uses and developing a good application technique takes a lot of time and resources. And considering that you have to apply primer, then paint and finally clear coat, multiply that time by three. And if you add sealer it is multiplied by 4. It took me three years painting small things like riding mowers to be able to know everything and try to take on the challenge of painting car panels and much later dare to paint an entire car. And that's just painting, if we add body work there it's a completely different world of knowledge. And the combination of both is worse. So the advice I give to all those who want to learn on their own is to have a lot of money saved and acquire as much knowledge as possible before painting a car.

Ok what the pulley at the very top that’s one that turns then stops

Got the P06DE on mine, just swapped out the sensor and definitely was a PITA!

My auto repair guy says this is makeing my check engine light come on

If you've been getting red paint as soon as you hit the finish with sand paper someone must've done a MAACO job on the car. GM hasn't messed around with single stage finishes in YEARS. (Like since the late 80's) It's a cheap fix for a solid color, but I still prefer a base/clear for everything. Show cars used to get super high gloss with solid colors by sanding between coats with a fine grit to get it flat...then final coats with a finish sand and polish. (That's where the term "color sanding" originated)

Great video my brother. I was stuck in Wendy's parking lot. Ran up the road(literally) to Advanced auto and fixed it. Easy peasy. Thanks

Lmao

Thx a lot

I painted my bumper and fenders 94 Bird

I painted for over 20 years, and have NEVER used a 2.5 tip. A few pointers... 1. Always follow the paint directions. If they said 1:1, that's their formula. 2. Don't spray a hood side to side. Spray front to back, you can reach farther. And always keep a wet edge. 3. Wax and grease remover is not a good idea for plastics. They make an alcohol based solvent for plastic parts. 4. That fender should not show any breakthrough, if you're "ready for paint". You should at least have a sealer of some kind, to make it uniform, and for adhesion. If you were wetsanding your basecoat, then you would have been good to wait for more color...you should lightly recoat after color sanding, anyway. 5. Don't pull/hold the trigger the whole time, let up off the trigger at the end of the panel. 6. Gun setup is important...wide open is not the answer. Pour from the side and back of the gallon...you won't get that "glug, glug" sloshing of the paint/reducer. I don't know what you finish sanded in, but you should not see scratches under the new finish that you "hope clear will cover". Love those cars. Best of luck. If you have any questions on correction feel free to ask.

Update: I just got the paperwork out and with the Advantage model (you get what you pay for) the warranty period is 2 years only. But I did find a place selling new outdoor units, same model as mine, for $230. So I think I'm going to just buy that and try to find an HVAC place that will charge it. I'm in a similar pickle. However, in my case it is a MrCool Advantage, which is similar to the DIY (12K BTU, 220 V), but without the charged line. So it was $400 cheaper 4.5 years ago, but I paid $400 to get it charged by a pro. And I preferred that because they shortened the lines, improved the flares and charged. They were at my house at least 2 hours doing all of it. Two guys. Now, I noticed the past month or so, in N. TX, I was getting intermittent days where the cooling wasn't happening, especially at the westerly heat of the day. And I would do some SC function or power off and on and it would get it going again. Today, 6/22, things went sour. It got real warm and wasn't cooling enough. I tried powering off the breaker for 5 min to the outdoor unit and on again. Still no joy. An hour later I got the EC error. And it powers the system off with that. I tried to do the breaker power off again, it cleared the error, but the temp was still warm, and, an hour later, a second EC. My fear is my HVAC guy for years tells me now they decided, since like a year ago, that they won't work on MrCool anymore and they have a laundry list of ones they will work on. Which is pretty irritating since they originally did the charge. And a second company told me they won't work on mini splits. And of course, it was Saturday, so good luck contacting anyone. I sent a message to MrCool support line and like you, I have the 5 year warranty. But I guess I will have to prove it's bad first. Meanwhile, since it cools a music studio, I had to move 4 guitars out of there into the house to protect them from the heat. I hope I can find someone who will work on it.

Everything is a work in progress. I give you a thumbs up for trying and posting.

My TB trans went out last week and the shop wanted nearly 3k to fix it which I can't afford. I felt hopeless. I got a $600 rebuilt one, watched your video a few times, and had the confidence to do it myself. Took me nearly a week of messing with it when I could, but I got it done and back on the road. Thank you!

Easy from underneath once the starter is removed, starter just takes a couple bolts and a couple nuts for the wires. Then it’s cake 👍

Thanks for the video, nicely done. I'm considering using the same tile in my garage at the Jersey Shore which is not temperature controlled. In your video, I noticed what seems to be a slight gap between tiles. My concern is can water get between the "cracks" and seep under the tiles, especially when mopping the floor? Also, being at the shore, people have sand on their feet. Would sand likely get stuck between the tiles "in the crack" especially when sweeping the tiles clean. I hope you are still monitoring your video as I see it is now 2 years old. How are the tiles holding up? Do they scratch easily?

Enjoyed seeing this repair! I had to replace a taillight on my 94 Formula back in the day. Bought a matching pair on E-bay and sold the extra taillight. I always liked the look of these taillights.

Well done. Going to be doing the same on my 2004 Buick Ranier.

Can this car be fitted with a KITT light bar?

I am really enjoying this Firebird series. These are beautiful cars. It is amazing how expensive these tail lights are on eBay, especially for the 1998-2002 honeycomb ones.

Excellent video!😊

This is a great video, thank you for sharing

Can you show which post it goes On?

This is a great review, thank you. I'm the occasional DIYer, so the overly fancy interface appeals to me 😅

Go under move your starter

Is it a formula or do you just like the formula bumper? Nice job by the way I am currently on a very similar project. 👍

That's a price point that would work for me.

Inverted torx

I bought the D8 but then returned it because I could not justify paying $500 for it. Works okay but the price is too high for a dated Android 8 scanner. I ended up buying the D7 recently for about $277 on TEMU of all places lol. It has android 12 and pretty much does everything the D8 does for almost half the price. I plan on keeping this one because the price seems fair.

I came across the same issue with the tubing on the old compressor to the new. Followed your lead and it worked out great. Thanks for the helpful video.

You may not get a ton of views, but as the owner of a 1998 Firebird and the original owner of a 2002 Formula, I do enjoy and appreciate these videos.

Watch some your video's, I'm doing a 94 Formula front end damage. Parts are getting hard to find. I just primed the hood, bumper and fenders. I only work on mind about 8 to 10 hours a week.

Front should be 1/4 inch lower than back of blade for proper cut and ejection of grass

One other thing distance of those springs should be 11.5 inches end of spring to the other end of spring then make your adjustments

I had to do almost the same thing and was pretty successful. So when you paint Kaylon colonial red is the perfect match painted the entire red of machine looks new is what I have been told doesn’t look like a 16 yr old unit.

Thanks for trying that out!! I have a cracked bumper that should work on.

From underneath

Promo_SM 😄

Thank you

I just did that job. BTW , the socket they sell will not work -better to remove the oil temp sender (will be really tight) and open up a 1” box wrench for the pressure sender (1 ⅙” box/27 mm will slip - why can't they just make standard hex on these things?)
