Sink faucet barely flowing | Galvanized pipe woes

Something is wrong here, 34k subscribers and not even 100 views after an hour? Dave, what's going on here? In any case, I wish you and your family a nice Sunday.

They all want the Corolla videos.. I like the handyman side projects actually even more.

[@volodymyrzakolodyazhny]

​@@ryan-uz1rwyes, nothing can beat the Corolla, and its engine! 😊

[@FamilyFriendlyDIY]

Just keeping the long game in mind. My home repair videos have a slow burn on them, but some of them end up with more views than the Corolla videos with time. 🙂 My most popular videos at the moment are actually home wiring.

[@FamilyFriendlyDIY]

Thanks Ryan 😃👍🏻

[@Luke.Skywodka]

@@ryan-uz1rw I miss the Corolla vids badly.

The blowtorch inside the wall scares me! I would’ve added some sort of flashing for a shield… or just cut it off. Sharkbite works great for reassembly.

[@FamilyFriendlyDIY]

Glad you pointed that out. I usually do, but in this case I was directing the heat of the torch toward the opening on the other side of the wall… to keep from burning down the house 😁 … admittedly though, I have caught the inside of a wall on fire before. soaked it down with a pump sprayer afterwards.

[@shutu6338]

Thats some old school plumbing technique i never seen before. in our place our pipes are wrapped in plastic or some kind of material and most joints are just held with ptfe tape - no welding and torching

[@FamilyFriendlyDIY]

Interesting. Are the pipes metal though?

[@Luke.Skywodka]

Recently a faucet in the sink literally burst when I turned it on. A very thin but far-reaching beam came out where it wasn't supposed to. ^^ I changed it myself, no big deal.

Nice job!

[@FamilyFriendlyDIY]

Much appreciated! you probably know this already ... but you're my most faithful commentor 😊😊

[@neel1173]

dave if you want to know how to fix the corolla without rebuilding it id suggest a b12 2-3 day soak - take out the spark plugs and pour b12 down each piston, add more every 12 hours or so then vaccum everything out

[@brettperkins4643]

When I have to cut a hole in the wall to fix a leak, my wife's biggest concern is, not the leak, but that we have a hold in the wall, easily fixed.

At 7:08 what's that tool for getting at the upper connection of the faucet hose in a tight spot?

Very cool ... Heller Brothers Co. "Masterench" speed // ratcheting wrench. 🙂 but what was the articulating "ratchet" used for the faucet hoses ..??

[@FamilyFriendlyDIY]

Thanks ... inherited that one ... the other is a plain old basin wrench ... I think it's a Huskey.

The rest of the galvanized pipes will eventually clog up. You need to replace them all.

"The reddish-brown slime you may find on fixtures is actually a living organism. It feeds on iron in the water and on iron pipes and fittings. It is known to completely clog pipes and fixtures. There may be times when you notice extremely discolored water caused by an occasional dislodging of bacteria." (source: North Dakota State University Agriculture)

Nice job that

[@FamilyFriendlyDIY]

Thanks!

[@Luke.Skywodka]

Hey Dave, how is your Toyota? Hope better than the sink.

[@FamilyFriendlyDIY]

😁... limping along for now.

[@user-ml8dm9fz6l]

been following along.. very curious to see results of Valvoline Restore and Protect

[@dfields9511]

Funny thing I just noticed slow flow on cold faucet on one side of master bathroom but my pipes are all copper. (Copper thieves stay away)

[@FamilyFriendlyDIY]

🤔hmmm. Maybe something wrong with the angle valve?

[@mohammedmerzougui1671]

Can you please use amsoil engine flush for oil consumption series and amsoil engine oil. I heard amsoil the best engine oil in usa

[@user-ml8dm9fz6l]

The Motor Oil Geek recently talked about Amsoil's marketing, so you might find that enlightening

[@namenotshown9277]

any progress or thoughts on how to clean out those pesky piston oil return holes?

[@FamilyFriendlyDIY]

Ah ha ha ha ha ha ...... :-)

[@namenotshown9277]

I'm serious for every problem there is a solution....no one has solved this problem of how to clean out piston oil return holes without taking engine apart, its hard problem to solve, so.e discussion of ideas might help

[@FamilyFriendlyDIY]

@@namenotshown9277 👍🏻I’m going to get mechanical on it very soon.

[@namenotshown9277]

Ahh - early 70s house flashbacks

Yeah… I think this one is a ’63.

I would subscribe if you provided more narration of what you are doing as you are doing it. I can't always watch every minute but narration helps me understand better and know when to look and even re cue the video. Music does not inform... sorry

[@FamilyFriendlyDIY]

Thanks for the input.

No Corolla update - another day ruined.

[@FamilyFriendlyDIY]

Sorry ...
