The 32mm hexagonal "bung" for the 18mm sensor is Nissan part # 20607-P6500. eBay, $13 to $16 usually with free shipping (as of Aug 2024)

I have done this job on my 1994 D21, 2-wheel drive. Surprise, sir, your 7/8" deep socket DID NOT remove the oxygen sensor alone. YOU removed BOTH the 32mm iron bung that holds the 7/8" = 22 mm oxygen sensor inside the exhaust pipe! YOU are holding the two items in your hand for three minutes... that have fused together with rust. This happened to my truck after only 43k miles. (thanks, Nissan). I had to buy a new 32mm iron bung ($16 eBay) and a sensor ($? a year ago, forgot the price). Meanwhile, after separating the two parts in a bench vise, using my pet gorilla's strength, a 22mm extractor-socket, Rust Blaster spray, destroying the internal, fused, rusted threads, I made a temporary "plug" with the OLD BUNG, a carriage bolt and 2 washers, one nut, from Home Depot, 89 cents, and replaced the 32mm bung. (so I could drive, silently for a few days.) AFTER my new 32mm bung arrived, I could insert the NEW sensor with 1600 degree anti-seize paste, insert the 32mm bung with a DEEP 32 socket, more high-temp paste (many pipes and hoses are in the way!!!) We drained the AC freon properly, to remove/reposition two hoses! ) What a frikken' headache, but I have 3 of these D21s and love them. ('86.5, '94, '96) I SHOULD HAVE MADE A VIDEO.

Thank you for your illustration it was very helpful my car barely got home , I ordered a FEBI slave and found a vintage FAG master and did the job in the garage oh and BTW the tips you gave for bleeding the system were priceless. Can't thank you enough for this DIY the job took about 3 hours. Clutch is stronger than ever!!! Thank you once again

Suggestion: Don't do a tire video, with the tire full of leaf This isn't a fix, you are putting petroleum based oil on a tire, it may look nice, but will damage the rubber even more.

❤

I think they might make a product for this S&N products, Armor All, etc, lmao But no it would not then be free would it. I bet its way easier to do burnouts now too which is also an added perk 🤣

Thanks

Does it need to be burnt oil?

This guy doesn't respond to jack shit i was about to subscribe but hell no fk this dude

This does not repair the damage… This is shining a turd. There’s no vulcanizing or adhesion of any kind…

👍

Thanks for sharing your video and keep them coming please.

I’ve always heard this and am going to try it.

Thank you so much! You saved my Land Rover from being smashed by a tree.

Even better take the tire off wheel and drop it in the deep fryer for 5 minutes than good as new threads and all no worrys no questions life is cheap and easy

If you can bring me the old oil I will try this

That's awesome. Don't know if I'd put it on with my finger though 😜

To every idiot that posts smartypants comments about loss of fiction - the amount of oil discussed here is negligible. You cannot compare a surface oil spill puddle to whatever amount the rubber will retain after application. Now, the smarter comments have to do with the material properties of rubber, and that is up to debate, but not to be laughed at.

Ty desert drying tires

Wear a Glove !

Will new motor oil work?

Will this work for that old condom in my wallet?

instead of burnt motor oil, what happens if i use new oil?

Thanks very much

Other sites WARN AGAINST using petrochemicals or silicone liquids on your tires: "Buy water-based tire oils if the damage is nothing severe than some sidewall cracks. Silicone-based and petrochemical oils do more harm than good. They strip the tires off their protective wax layer and expose them to UV rays for more decay" ...

The only thing that would work is to keep the tire lubed up before they start rotting

How often should I do this? I have ATVs, and they need new tires. Will it soften them up, and burn them up faster if I do it too much? I plan on taking them on the street this summer.

Besides the oil trick the poorer folks who might need to wait a month or even a bit longer to save up but still have no choice but to drive on the old rotted tires I recommend doing half the recommended amount of tire slime or similar product even if the tires hold air. (Do NOT use fix-a-flat) This is definitely better then nothing and MUCH safer. Also quite effective if the rot is not too severe in order to buy some time to save up enough money. I also recommend for safety that you buy the first TWO tires for the FRONT as soon as you have enough then again with the second set for the rear. (Buy tires 2 at a time unless buying a single is absolutely necessary) Possibly put the 1st set on the rear depending on how many miles they have. Hope this helps someone as poor as myself LOL

Rubber tires... you would think that after all these decades, someone would have found something better to be using than rubber

Use silicone idiots!

Awesome! Thanks so much!

i was not able to get the o2 sensor off with the "correct" tool, but then again it was from harbor freight. i might return it. but realistically those o2 sensors may not come off even with a better quality tool. so i'm thinking of doing the same thing since it would be wise to replace it anyway. it won't be expensive, but it's a pain to work on this car. everything gets in the way and you have to take "everything" apart to work on something that should be very simple. i was surpised when you said it was easy to work on. I had an 83 toyota before and that was easy to work on. very simple everything within hand's reach. my 84 corolla which i have to bring back to life, is also very easy to work on. i need to get it back on the road. anyway your video was helpful. thanks!

Extremely unsafe.

Do you still have this truck? As you posted this video 5 years ago... I was wondering if you've had to replace the light knob on the dash? Thanks!

Best way buy new tires your looking for a blow out from the side walls

If you want to take it one step farther, after oiling your tires, heat the surface of the tire with a propane torch. This will expand the rubber & essentially close up the cracks permanently.

Great for cars that sit idle for years with ZERO driving.

Wicked glad I found this video. I snapped that shorter bolt that holds the caliper bracket on and thought I was gonna have to order a new one and wait days for it to get here but since you have the details on the bolts you used to replace the stupid allen tip ones I was able to find a replacement at my local hardware store! Totally saved my day thank you!

I keep getting stuck in park and it blows F25 fuse every time. Were you blowing a fuse?

Say, I have seen that petroleum products that are not synthetic, swells and degrades EDPM rubber and our tires are of a similar matter I believe. I'm looking to PREVENT dry rot for vehicles that get few miles a year on them. What do you think of ? It is designed for EDPM rubber seals in the brake system and is not a petroleum product and I can just reuse some from bleeding brakes. That's what I want to try. Thank you

weren't slick oil on tires cause accident if oil is on the road, it considered dangerous are sure this is safe to drive?

Do you think burnt diesel motor oil will work?

You would use this on a farm truck or a unregistered off-road truck for the city Slickers put it on your motorcycle tires and on the tread of your cars it works great🤣 and I don't understand how they say it would dissolve the rubber I guess there's no seals in my new Tesla🤣 valve covers rear main seal Etc I am confused

The Shadow knows.

People with the ignorant comments are not thinking before speaking this is a preventative if done often it helps extend tire life it doesn’t magically fix your dry rot use your brain people

Thanks man 😁

Thanks for the tip and straightforward approach. Keep safe and healthy

That's comical!!. I love my family and myself so I just buy NEW tires when their old/cracked.a.k.a. DRYROTTED. .It s a great, tried and true proven formula to avoid flats and. BLOWOUTS. !! Just ask a state trooper or a D.o.t. official about "sketchy" tires.?? Just saying.be safe for all of us. 🙏. Plz.

After reading the comments…. I’m disappointed in the human race

The real test is on the highway....Roll the dice.
