Quick question about the l67 thermostat I've taken it off and there was no thermostat is that OK? I did put one in and it wasn't working right so now I'm doing it all again. Should I put the sealant on both sides of the gasket also?
@cassarindustries_wheelwerk 15 күн бұрын
Definitely better to run these engine with a thermostat. If you put a colder thermostat in (82 degrees) it will also help. Running a colder thermostat is a good mod to do. I generally just put a very light smear of sealant on both sides

Highly recommend remove front sway bar and NOT remove rear one, it will help Your front flex more and maintain body leveled during obstacles. Also rear sway bar will push front down and help keeping all 4 wheels on the ground = more traction overall.

Thanks mate. We have unbolted the front sway bar from the links when he’s been off road, and definitely makes a difference. But on road it is much more planted with the sway bar on. So he wants to keep the option there.

Need to confess my sins, have re used the sump plug washer for 12 oil changes straight. (Though always pre fill the oil filter) and have on occasion washed the air and cabin filters in the washing machine. Great video thanks, good clear information. Was less than impressed with Suzukis cost cutting wheel bolts. Also imagine if Suzuki (Aisin) did something revolutionary, something so advanced, something from decades in to the future, and put a fill port in the top of transmission? Could then use "the force" to get the new fluid back in.

Oh mate that makes my ocd go into overdrive. Improbably wont sleep tonight now! There is actually now a fill plug in the side of the transmission that most of the facelift vitaras have. My wife’s one is the only facelift model I’ve seen that doesn’t have it. But hers is one of the first facelift so perhaps it got an old transmission case? Who knows

@cassarindustries_wheelwerk Thanks for the update. Re the sump plug washer, never had one leak or come loose, so if you ever need to do an oil change, and for whatever reason don't have a new crush washer, pretty safe to chant the Aussie classic, "she'll be right mate"

@cassarindustries_wheelwerk Ай бұрын
Yes mate there’s a full series on how to manual swap a V6 commodore on my channel. Detailed process of doing it in stages. Drives fairly well, but it’s hard to find a good 2nd hand getrag these days that doesn’t have any crunching of gears or noisy bearings. I do recommend also changing differential gear ratios of doing the swap. The manuals come factory with 3.45 diff gears where to autos come with 3.08. Still drives fine, but a tad sluggish down low with the lower gears. End of the day it comes down to personal preference if you prefer driving auto or manual

Thanks heaps mate. Easier way to flush power steering is to suck out the reservoir, then fill it up with fresh fluid.

@cassarindustries_wheelwerk Ай бұрын
I didn’t as the bike already had a tune prior to fitting the exhaust. So my exhaust parameters were already changed as I knew I’d be doing the exhaust later. But yes, with a standard tune, it will throw the engine light on, as the O2 sensor is detecting different flow, and different emissions compared to what it was calibrated for from the factory

Then next month money permitting he will start on front end suspension, Fulcrum Suspension did quote as did another Mechanic in my town & they were miles apart as to what i need to replace, so now 3rd time lucky 🙏 this new mechanic a mate put me in touch with will give me a more honest quote & price ! I'm sure some Mechanics & shops think we all haven't a clue about cars & parts , i didn't tell Fulcrum Suspension that ive worked on Holdens & old cars all my life , im now 59 with a spine condition that prevents me from doing the wrk myself, its funny when a Mechanic will tell me something that i know is utter bullshit 😂 so I just simply turn my back & leave his shop ! Without another word said , some shops treat us like fools , they do it with girls / women as well , they have no shame hey , there are plenty of great Mechanics out there 👍 Just have to sort the shit from the clay to find a honest work shop , loved your video & young car guys can learn from them 👍😃 Cheers from Qld 🕺🍹
