So it's been a while because I was severely sick for 2 weeks (really bad food poisoning or a stomach virus) and I couldn't even get out of bed. I haven't been sick for over 10yrs but man did this one hit me hard! Luckily I am all better but please please please follow me on Facebook or Instagram (I like instagram better) so you can get updates and know what's happening between videos! I try my best to keep you guys in the loop and for everyone who does follow me thanks for all the support and messaging me "get well soon" because it helped!

Hey Chris, thanks for being a teacher. I recently had my car totaled and insurance payed about half the vehicle worth. (no I wasn't at fault) I ended up buying a 2001 civic ex that looked roughed up but drove smooth. Got home to realize the guy cleared the codes on the car and hid a lot of the issues. Ive spent days working on it with rented hand tools from Auto-zone and borrowing some from my brother in law. Ive had to take it to a mechanic for some stuff that was out of my depth but your videos are the best. I was always anxious about messing things up but seeing you do it with such clear instructions, amazing tips most people would forget to mention, and using hand tools has changed my perspective. The car has potential, nobody else can see it and they keep pushing me to sell it. I'm going to prove everyone wrong thanks to you though, even if i end up replacing every single inch of that car over the coming years. Right now I'm stuck just trying to afford to keep it in running condition, but I plan on making it my own. I haven't had any mechanical experience before a week ago but i replaced my entire suspension system already, replaced a fuel pump that went out on me while driving. The power steering pump is next and I'm sure you have a video covering that lol. I also have an interview for a service tech apprentice at my local Honda dealership tomorrow. Wish me luck! P.S.

[@xiggyproductionz2982]

You are wise to share living space with family members as a way to manage costs. Sacrifices like these allow you the opportunity to run a self-employed business, and really make a contribution to the world. This is a lot more mature than most people your age. You could have easily edited that out, so good for you to keep it real (just like using the hand tools) Your production is really great. Notice his use of lamps for the underside footage. The editing is top notch and really makes for minimal dead space. Your enthusiasm is excellent, even borderline contrived, but kudos for keeping it fresh. I rarely comment on videos, so take this as a huge compliment.

jack london, "I rarely comment on videos, so take this as a huge compliment". Yeah, I'm sure the highlight of his youtube career is receiving a comment from you. Keep up the trend of rarely commenting on videos you self-important douche.

[@shaggyphillips7501]

Lemme stomp out the flames for you fam @dada & @brendan: The difference is minimal. You think his videos would be better if he had -450+ coming out of his bank every month? You think that makes him less mature or what? $100 bucks says behind the screen your still eating cheerios in your moms basement whilst doing nothing with your life unlike Chris. #slay #roast #donttakethesehashtagsseriously @maybe: >Implying making that comment makes you less of a douche @mark: When the fuck did complimenting become being over-emotional.

Hey Chris: real nice work on this mod with an after market exhaust. BUT can you also review the basic cat converter install, replace, selection, mechanics? I had some issues with a GMC small box truck and a Jeep Wrangler -- all related to catalytic converters, oxygen sensors, installs, removals, etc. You have lots of videos on fluids, exterior and interior detailing, and so on. Many nice tips on those. How about doing some on cats, O2 sensors, fuel filter changes,...? I think you would get lots of views on these more common problems.

Hey guys, it's chrisfix here and I'm going to show you how to wash dishes with common hand tools. First your gunna need your soapy water, make sure you soak the dishes and scrub with a microfiber cloth, scrub in small circular motions and don't be afraid to get in there to the hard to reach spots. Next Make sure to thoroughly rinse off the dishes with your pressure washer. After you are done rinsing put all of the dishes on a car jack and sun dry for a couple hours. And would you look at that, your dishes are nice and clean! and all it took was a little soapy water, microfiber cloth, a pressure washer and a simple car jack (that you can find at most stores). With a little bit of elbow grease you too can have nice clean dishes.

[@NRNProductionsYT]

This is honestly a lot easier than I expected. It’s literally chopping the old exaust and fitting the new one in like a puzzle. Neat. @ChrisFix

[@chanstoncochran]

Hey Chris since you have a 4.6 from 96-98 i would suggest doing a pi head and intake plenum swap you gain around 50-60 hp i believe plus you can change out the cams at the same time and get close to 75-90 i think.

[@chrisfix]

Thanks! I have the PI intake going in soon!

[@laParka777]

DOPE! You won't regret doing it bro. My 94 Tbird evolved with the PI heads and intake.

[@ghstrdr110]

That's a hella big jump in power for a modest modification.

[@Lincolnator721]

Chanston Cochran I might just get a Tbird for that reason

[@beni5149]

Chanston Cochran im not really good at this stuff but wouldn't a ecu flash add a whole load of horsepower without modding anything? i have a volkswagen touareg v6 tdi 2005 amd its supposed to have around 245hp but i see loads of places saying that after an ecu it should get to around 290 ish but since the car is probably not at 245 and rather more along the like of max 170 it should get around 260 if i change the exhaust also.

[@802Garage]

My Mustang friends tell me that if you put on new exhaust headers like those from the Cobra engine you'll gain 10s of horsepower instead of just 10. I hear swapping out the actual intake manifold to the Cobra version can add a lot as well. Look forward to seeing the performance intake install.

[@Ru1nerZ]

802 Garage Good suggestions, but he doesn't have a 302.

4.6 sohc modular. Pretty much a crown vic engine, not an insult just a fact.

Ah, well that's a bummer! In that case my friend says to get the PI heads, PI intake, new headers, and he can make 300+ easy. That's still a lot of work and money though! :'(

Hey Chris , I have watched quite a few of your vids but i am just now coming to the realization of just how knowledgable you are , how much experience you must have , and how good you are explaining things . I have been working on a 2000 mazda 626 v6 , a 1978 chevy p30 step van , and getting back to working on a 2002 Bmw 325ci straight 6. Hopefully you will have some vids to help me out . I have a miss in the mazda which is looking like an intake valve.I am hoping it is just carbon deposits. I am trying various cleaners but not much change yet. Put a couple of bottles of seafoam and techron straight into the throttle body last week and have added Seafoam to the oil . Hoping i dont have to pull the head. Got 190 psi in 5 cylinders but only 30 in one . I put shop air in thru the spark plug hole and heard air leaking thru the throttle body. Am getting some smoke at start up now so maybe a valve guide seal but that should not cause compression loss ,i dont think. Dont know if you read comments and will give advice for pay but if so please let me know . Be glad to pay for you expertise.
