Great video, awesome close up shots. Would love to see more in depth step by clips!

Mine was leaking, and was surprised how pricey these valves are. Wonder if there's any master cylinder rebuild kit, with compatible seals.

What if when u plug the pcv end on the intake the truck dies

Standing on the Jeep while she's trying to snatch it is one of the stupidest things I've ever seen if that strap broke at the Toyota and came back it would kill him

Should I use the winch for a controlled Pull

But…yea!! Omg drive me crazy good video hold back on your oh yeahs 👍

Don’t ever stop uploading.

There is a telescopic stick with a magnet at Harbour Freight for 2.99$ ;)

No glow plugs

Did some channel rebranding, so you won't recognize my name anymore lol. Mazda runs great, nice to see some offroading again! Random question, but wife and I are meeting her friend from Austria in Toronto next week. I can't remember where abouts you are now, but do you have any recommendations for things to do around that area? Thanks, Hedgehog

I kinda stopped watching years ago when you said you were getting married and stopping videos hows that goin

Basically the same issue. I tried this method and too me it felt like it was blowing air and not sucking in. I’ve replaced a bunch of sensors and still the same issue

Will it blow a ton of smoke if plenum is bad

I know this is an trend but dude I love seeing mechanics work with hand tools I do a lot too no power all by hand good video thanks

I don't know if you still got your 4Runner if you do I have a parts truck if you needed any parts for it let me know I know that this video was made 12 years ago but you never know it was very informative and I do think you very much for making the video have a great day dude

Something’s popping in the front end dude ! Are you in 4high or 4low ?

I got a 2001 van 3.9 liter. The front two cylinders are misfiring. OBD II reader is throwing a code saying two much oxygen in the exhaust and its blowing oil out the top of the engine. But its not sucking oil into the intake. Could tye plenum gasket still be blown? Seems like excess air is entering the front two cylinders .

What did you do with the 12 valve flat bed truck

Lol bro consider urself lucky! I pulled like 15 pounds of unnecessary wire from the 95 pathfinder I just bought from this kid! Lots of small mods I need to undo... His "cold air intake" is a metal chrome tube with an open filter on the exhaust side lmao, so far found 3 Bosch relays hooked to nothin, the wires he did were for led strips underneath, THE WORST speaker wiring I've ever seen in my life!, and he slammed it all the way down, put titan rims on it, and low profiles... So yayyy the suspension is freakin shot. Really need to get that suspension fixed up, before something bad happens. Idk why he slammed it. I even asked "were u gonna drift or race it?" He said no, lol so I said, "so u just ruin the suspension, to look cool, by not replacing em with proper parts that make it WORK for the look u wanted."....yeah idk man. Idk what I'm doing... "LEARN BEFORE U DO ANYTHING! Idk what ur doing to the truck ya own now, but u n ur friends need to learn now, before u die or kill someone... Before 'cool' THE MOST IMPORTANT things for a vehicle to have are brakes and suspension!" Lol I went on for another minute, and I honestly think I got through to him... Ya want ur tires on the ground and u want control over em. Then I said, "lemme guess, u put a cool system in it too".. yup.. "ok well I'll check it out when I get home.. I'll send u a video of what I changed, so u can learn from that" Man I felt like an asshole, but that kid messed with SOOOOO much stuff he shouldn't have! Lol runs GREAT though! My goal is to make all new wiring harnesses for my 92 hardbody, to have tidy new wires for my new MS2, so I bought this, just to keep moving, and have some compatible parts laying around for when I'm done.

I came looking for how to get the spring-loaded pump into the tank, but you skipped it. That's the part that is giving me trouble.

look's a tiny bit heavy for that little truck 😅

Been years since we had a garden. I thought when I retired I would start one but its been three years and have little interest. Still work part time, maybe next spring I will make a small one. Nothing like fresh vegetables right out of the garden.

Awesome video, glad to see your still wrenching. Keep moving forward

Kudos Steve, looking like a champ out there, getting it done.

At least you can get the oil pan off without having to raise the engine, that's a plus!

Cheers brother

Hi,would like know where i can buy these injectors.

where’s the TD jetta? used to watch those old videos when i had a 1.6td golf mk2

AND you filmed, edited and created a new video for your viewers. Add that to your accomplishments for the day.

Must be nice to have bleeders on the master cylinder at least! Had to replace the front wheel cylinders on my VW/MG kit car last week, brake was wayyyy to stiff before I replaced them. Had a hell of a timemgetting my air powered bleeder to do anything, had to crack the lines off the master cylinder to get that bled out again, which is naturwlly a giant mess lol. My wife's old S60 had that same window track issue where the front end would pivot. It had some weird scissor mechanism with sliding plastic clips that socketed onto the window. I replaced those clips once, but since the scossor lift had already bent up, it had no problem doing it again. Her mother ended up cracking that window lowering it, somehow it stayed intact, so I just unplugged that window from the rest and sold it that way. That Bronco engine has a lotttt more extra junk on it compared to my '83, wow. Granted, mine is a '79 block, so who knows what was missing from the original engine. Didn't realize they had diagnostic ports on that old of a truck, that's sweet! I bought myself an industrial griund fan from Harbor Freight, a huge game changer over those box fans, you'd love it

Love the bullnose in the background! Coincidentally, just started working on my 351w out of my bullnose yesterday, after a 2 year hiatus. Had to restart all my seedlings this year, they all died off trying to harden them. My raised beds aren't quite as skookum as yours, they're about at the end of their life haha. We are lucky enough that there are raspberries, and black raspberries surrounding our entire yard. Fortunately, they are highly invasive, so we get plenty of fruit each year. Last year I infused two batches of bourbon with them, one for each type. I used to use the bullnose with the same 60 or so gallon plastic drum with a spigot you have for my father's garden, would have LOVED an IBC tote. Looking back, I never should have junked that truck. It had a dump hoist under the stock bed, which was awesome for dirt. Re-engineered it for a chopped down medium duty flatbed, and the geometry got messed up, so it didn't dump nearly as high. Cab was rotted something fierce, so it couldn't go into park to start anymore, since the cab was resting on the linkage. Nowhere near as nice as yours 😂

Cheers brother

Good to see you back and the KZbin how did you ever ever make out with the Mazda?

Good to see you back at it. Loved every moment of this video man. Always adapt and create.

Great. Hope to see things pick up for you day by day. Positive thinking works.

Good to see you're still kicking around man.

Having gone through similar sounding problems, I think that it might help to make a video like what you mentioned at 20:16. Even if you decide not to make it public, either recording it or maybe keeping notes (if there were several problems) might prove useful. I say that because in my case, a narrative developed that I "wasn't doing anything" when it was more like that I wasn't able to go around explaining it all.

Judging by your arduino work, you are a pretty natural firmware hacker. You are very technical and obsessive which are definitely the correct personality traits for that. Do you ever think about programming for a side-job? That is one of the few areas where you can work from home if you want to. If you go even farther with it, you can get a degree and program the computers in cars and ATVs and farm equipment, etc. That sound like right up your alley.

I literally was about to message you on Facebook the other day and ask how you have been, but I forgot! Love the rubber flooring! I need to come up with some waste oil drum like that, I have about 30 gallons at the moment. That was actually part of the reason I wanted to reach out, I had some Volkswagen waste oil ideas bouncing around in my head, wanted to poke your brain about whether you ever experimented with it. I myself was given an MG TD replica on a 73 Beetle chassis, so I've been dipping my toes into the world of VW, but mostly cleaning up some atrocious wiring. Back in 2019, I ruined the disc between C5 and C6 I my neck, I was 22. I only had nerve issues on the right side , despite my MRI showing damage to the nerve on the left side of my vertebrae. For the most part, my numbness is gone, but the pain kicks my ass once in a while. I totally understand it, it's the most excruciating pain I've ever felt. Hopefully things get better for you, it's always nice seeing your projects, it's what got me into car stuff back in ye olde KZbin days!

Been going through a lot of the same stuff it aint no joke. I hope this gets better for you. I really miss the old videos. Hang in there

Love the utdate and your honesty about how its going even if it sucks. Im in the same kind of curcumstances and your smile and good spirits really brigthened my veiw of tings. Have a good one brother!

tuff couple years man but your still there and smiling ! i know what it is when you dont have a lot money to pay everything been there 2 years but this years i got a new job and it pay well better days are coming man wish you nothing but the best never give up is the key cheers 🤘

Awesome video, stop working just to watch your video. Good to see and hear from you. God Bless

It`s been an interesting (disturbing) last few years for hundreds of millions of us across the globe. All of that happening to you and you can still smile. Prayed for you pal just now and will keep on. Optimism is something not one can take from you. There is always tomorrow and no one can say what tomorrow will bring. Every morning when you wake up think positive before you start your day. Better days are coming. Believe in yourself. Never ever give up never give in, never stop trying. You can do this. i know you can. Nothing can keep a good man down bud. Nothing.

Brother , your heart is bigger than your body, your willingness to still help people in spite of your issues just shows that you are worth more to people than you could imagine , the impact im sure you have on their lives makes you very powerful to them . I could go on , but never forget who you are and look at your past videos thats you, an inspirational person . I can see the pain in your eyes , i went through the same recently and had to find god otherwise i would jump off the face of a mountain last march here . I drank myself to sleep every night , i was lonely for 14 years im 32 . I know bud , dont give up , you light up to these dreams , keep chasing them , never let darkness take over your light .

That is a electrictronic controlled transmission from the factory of that yr model

Thank you, I'll be using your advice for my 99 Dakota.

My 95 Toyota 4Runner is doing the same thing white smoke 💨 on first start up. I have to replace my head gaskets now! Great video 👍😎🤘
