Logan Did It
США
Добавлен 1 июл 2017
If you squint real hard, you could call this a DIY channel with a dad-joke twist. All I want to do is inspire people to stop overthinking and just “do the things.”
I spent a lot energy overthinking and over analyzing to the point where I’d self-defeat before even starting something.
It has taken a long time, and practice, but now I embrace taking the first steps on a project without the fear of all the things that could happen.
There will always be another hurdle, but, also, there will always be another way over it.

Patina Paint Job for the Barn Find Suzuki GS450
Definitely going to cheap way here, but it's just a cheap cruiser! Giving this old 1980 Suzuki GS450 a patina (well, more than it already has) to make it look cool...er. Just some cheap rattle can spray paint, and this bike starts to have some personality.

One Simple Mistake: RIP Camaro

I thought we had this wrapped up and ready to go down the road, but... we made a mistake and it may have done the Camaro in. I have spoken many times about the issues with cars that sit: they end up needing a ton of work (even if they were perfect when parked). But, then... there are things that can be avoided; don't make the same mistake. If you see white smoke, you may be thinking a head gask...

Details of Car Restoration that Make a Difference
Is your Prius a 2010-2014 prius? They issued a recall for the inverter on the Hybrid Propulsion System. Recall no 14V053000. You can google that recall number to read more.
Hey! It is a 2014. I didn’t know that. I’ll have to check into it. Thanks!
Serious it sounds like it needs mufflers....it's terrable..
It is open headers, so yeah it doesn’t sound great. But, if you looked you can see the car is far from done- I’m driving with no windshield, after all. But, I have Borlas waiting for it.
He sounds cold! Nice way to warm it up!
Oh yeah! I’ve been fighting carb issues that came out of nowhere! I think, fingers crossed, I found the issue(s)
Bro is a celebrity now. Don’t forget about us little ones😢
Oh whatever. Hahaha
@@LoganDidItYT I’m just messing around. This is so very cool!
@@Knownworldwide it was pretty cool! Well, Still is even sort of.
Did you guys get hit by the flood bad? Loving the bike man! You should try and find a smaller more streamlined tail light and rear signals. Good to see another video! Better yet, great to see a burnout! Haha
Yeah, we got some flooding, and then some more. Then, it’s been bone dry for a few weeks: it’s all over the place. I do need a better light setup- I’ll check and see what’s out there. But, after this video I started having some carb issues that I need to sort out. But, I’ll have some more burnouts soon… maybe in the Trans Am.
@@LoganDidItYT pics or no proof
You can get a code reader for under $60 that will read the hybrid codes and give live data on the inverter and battery. The Topdon topscan is one. The topdon requires a phone or tablet. I have reviewed a few scanners on my channel. In the US there is a very good warranty on the inverter. For $25 you can get 2 day access to Toyota manuals so you can see what you are checking.
Yep! Mine is a Bluetooth scanner and works great; only $30 on Amazon!
@@LoganDidItYT do you get all 250 hybrid PIDs in the live data view? If so that is a good deal.
This one uses an app and can link with any app. I use the free Car Scanner app and it does show all of it. The only thing it can’t show is the traction battery data (hybrid specific stuff), but Dr. Prius does and it’s free too.
Headed up tomorrow, thanks for the video.
@@nmbarton2701 I’ll be there too!
can this work on a nissan e power? its the same water pump as you show and say aisin but i dont know if its work
I doubt it’ll be the same pimp, but, if you’re experiencing similar issues it could be a similar problem with your Nissan. Check the EGR system and even a cheap code reader can go a long way to help you figure out what’s going on.
Hell, your YOUNG & have a garage. Who can afford a new car these days. Replace head gasket, clean intake/EGR, replace PCV, thermostat/possible water pump, new oil/coolant. Wallah, u now have a new car!
You’re right. It’s cheaper to do all the work and not go into crazy debt for a new car.
It's been a year, update?
I will do one! There have been some changes to the car, but it’s better than ever.
@@LoganDidItYT I subscribed
Hey, thank you! I’ll get an update on the vette soon! I’m sure others are curious too.
What’s this? A video from a true legend! Nice work! Give me more.
Oh now… Haha. There are more already waiting to hit publish!
I know someone mentioned a code reader. I got one to use on my wife’s car that had a maintenance nag, but didn’t say what maintenance. The day it came in, my car (Prius) wouldn’t start and then started showing the “check hybrid system” error. With the code reader, I immediately determined the 12v battery was too low and what charge it did have drained very quickly. I ran a more in depth check and got an error code having to do with the hybrid system. Searched the internet and if pointed me to a few RUclips videos for an easy fix - the drive battery disconnect wasn’t locked properly. Easy fix. I’m glad I spent the 13.99 or whatever I spent on the reader. I was going to have it towed to the dealer first business day. That would have cost me large multiples of 13.99. Get a reader. With all that going on in your electronics, I couldn’t imagine it not giving you some clues to go on. Good luck. Your problems scare the heck outa me.
I did get a hybrid system warning with a low 12 volt before. But, my problems were a bit more involved than that- head gasket and water pump(s). It took a few water pumps to get a good one, but it’s been good for a while now.
Looks really good!! Keep up the good work!!
I just let mine go, did the brake actuator. Then got the rough rattle then found it was gasket, but the , motor blew and I had to just let it be.
Sometimes that’s the best solution: just get out from underneath the problem.
Hi, changed water pump on 2018 Toyota Prius 100k mileage. Before changing the pump the car was losing coolant slightly but when I changed the water pump the car is basically losing coolant on daily basis. The car is in use all day long and next day it has to be topped up. Is it because I did not bleed it properly or some other issues? Thanks
It could be that it needs bled, but they say these cars are self-bleeding systems. You can try putting it in maintenance mode (how to do this is in a few of my videos), let it run with the coolant cap off and heat all the way on high temp and high fan. Once the thermostat opens, if it wasn’t already open, you’ll see coolant suck down just keep adding coolant slowly. This may take a few fills. But, if you’re losing coolant and you don’t notice and telltale signs of it coming back out of the reservoir cap (this can happen with air pockets/not being bled), then I’d look elsewhere. If you don’t see any spots under your car, I’d check your oil. If it looks milky, that is where it’s going and it’s time for a head gasket.
@@LoganDidItYT no visible leaks and no oil contamination either. However when heater starts inside the car it makes some sounds water flow and maybe air. And when opening the coolant tank cap in the morning it has air pressure. And thanks for quick reply.
Then yeah, you have air trapped. So, just do the bleeding process (it could take about 30 minutes). Then, you should be good!
@@LoganDidItYT much appreciated it bro
My life for past month! 2013 Prius 3 one owner (me) with 250K miles and ALL same issues as yours. So… NEW head gasket kit, head bolts, timing chain, tensioner, water pump, fuel injectors, NGK plugs, Denso Ignition coils. Head spent week in machine shop for $400 rebuild & looked brand new b4 reinstalling. Thoroughly cleaned filthy intake, EGR & cooler - basically engine looked NEW once done, started and ran better than new with LOTS of power 🎉… except Death Triangle and Check Hybrid Pull Over message came back after a few minutes. Experienced Toyota dealership tech reset all and pronounced success EXCEPT he said AC pump was bad! But I NEVER touched that!! Was working fine before all this and now no AC 🙄. Took car home DEFEATED and now on way home the Death Triangle + Check Hybrid message are back. Also noticed Cruise Control no longer working. Except for those issues the engine still running better than ever and is totally smooth. Wondering if that DC Inverter thing is possible. Am hearing strange “whirring” noise coming from that area. Wouldn’t it be great if the fix was in fact covered under a “magic” warranty? Considering taking it back to dealership for one last check and asking some questions. After all of this, admitting defeat is difficult. The wife is ready for a new TESLA 😮. Even with the lites, they are offering me $3000 trade in as long as it’s running. Would cover everything I put into it with $1500 to spare. Hate giving up but it may be time?
The whirring sound seems a lot like it may be another bad water pump: if it’s coming the the passenger side area. Did you have a chance to thoroughly bleed the cooling system (they say they’re self-bleeding… but mine needed a little extra help). That whirring is similar to what your water pump sounds like when it intermittently has water then air pockets- it’s “starving” for liquid in this case. Even if it’s not overheating. You can remove the coolant tank cap, put the car into “maintenance mode” (Google how to do that), and start the car. While it’s running turn the AC off, turn heat temp all the way up and then on high fan too; after that, slowly pour in coolant. It may “burp” in this time and pull coolant down into the system. Keep adding to it until the system won’t take any more and it maintains the level marking on the side of the reservoir. Let it continue to run for about 30 minutes.
To the person that made this video, thank you! I'm experiencing this same problem right now. What ended up being the problem?
Hey! Well, it was a combination of things. My issues were the water pump and head gasket. A few things can cause the master warning though, so I’d suggest buying an inexpensive code reader and checking to see what comes back from that (I have a video on that too).
It’s your fuel pump it has gone bad basic problem with the prius don’t replace it just make sure you keep that tank over half . I have the same issue with my 2011 prius
Nope not the fuel pump for this one. It was a combination of things: water pump then head gasket.
25 min? Others have said 1 hour minimum. Nice
Maybe an hour if you’ve never done anything like it. Even then, it’s not hard. I’d say to those who’ve done something like this, 25 minutes is a good estimate.
That thing is awesome. I’d do your budget friendly “additions” as long as you don’t have to take it to far apart. So in other words. Do some stuff to it and enjoy it
That’s what I plan on doing! Well, at least for this first phase of it.
How is the pump working to this day? still good?
It’s still going! I will say the OEM Toyota branded pumps can be found cheaper now than when I did this.
MY CHEAP WATER PUMP THROW SOME CODES WEEKS LATER BOUGHT THE 200 PUMP AND ALL IS WELL NOW
Good! I’m glad you got it fixed. I basically had the same experience: cheap one died almost instantly.
If youre buying any prius over 200,000 miles, it will need new head gasket because of how many times it heats up during each drive. Because of that, the water pump, and many other things connected to coolant system will need to be replaced. If you get the prius cheap enough its worth the maintinanace.
Most likely you’re right. I’d go as far as to say stay clear of most of the 3rd gen Prius. They redesigned the heads on the 4th, so they got them to be a little more reliable. Mine had 120k miles when it first needed a head gasket, and the pumps are just weak design too.
@@LoganDidItYTdamn my dad’s Prius v is at 300k og engine, water pump, thermostat, and battery. Def time to replace them.
You saved my day at 6:05. Thank you so much!
Awesome!! I’m glad to have helped!!
The wood is? Purple Heart decking... I say leave the rust and "patina" and just fix it to ride, leave it stock. GS = Gran Sport X = Inline 4 with 4 valves per cylinder R = Racing F = Faired V = V configuration of motor
You’re right, Purple Heart! And, it’s interested you say that about the patina… you may want to watch the next video on it!
for me..fix it,it worth it and is beatyfull
I’m pretty partial to it too. I may do that, or I may have already started the fixing….🤷🏻♂️
Replace the thermostat while you are there!
Definitely!
Eh, to 🤔 Had me dying. Please CAFE RACER STYLE! Such a great platform for that style! “L” meant it was a cruiser type setup. There was a “S” model that had different fairings that stood for sport and I think there is a base model “E” or something like that.
Haha. Hey, thanks for the info too. I saw a T and X but not sure what years those were offered…
@@LoganDidItYT a gsx400 was offered in the years before the 450. Not sure if that is what the X designation you’re referring to. There was a T model, I believe that one had standard rear springs and the front suspension is NOT air adjustable like the rest I think. Swapping over to the early 90s gsx-r forks is a bolt on affair. Gives you dual disc brakes and most do that anyway.
@@Knownworldwide that’s actually really cool. I haven’t dove too far into all those things for this bike yet. But, dang, I need to.
Cool bike! My first motorcycle was a GS450. Looking forward to what you come up with.
No way! It’s a fun little bike.
how many thousands of purchase requets have you had ...?
A handful for sure. Some have tried to trade other rare cars for it: one example is a Super Duty Trans Am.
Only water pump I would trust on these are the Aisin pumps.
After my personal experiences, I’d 100 agree.
You totally missed the heat sink gel tape inside the pump housing that sits on and cools the electronics board.
I’ll have to go and look at that. Maybe the non-OEM ones don’t have any or it’s inadequate. That would definitely contribute to the shortened life I’ve seen first hand. Good catch!
By non-OEM are you referring to the cheap replacement pump or the AISIN supplied pump that has Toyota badging removed ?
Ah mayn, that looks hard as hell
It’s not really, really. Just time consuming if you’re not used to it. The hardest part is the exhaust manifold
I have always liked those catfish Camaros. My friend had one and although it broke pretty often…(probably from extreme abuse). It seemed like a fun car. If I had the funds I’d honestly be interested in it. But right now I gotta finish my truck. If you still have it in a few months from now I may be interested lol.
🔥🐐🔥
🙏🙏
Love the southern draw. Those brake calipers are actually a surprisingly modern design. I didn’t know those came with those type of calipers from the factory. Or i guess that the corvettes of the same vintage came with them.
Haha. 💁🏻 and yeah, they made the convertibles a bit fancier!
If That wagons suspension was just a lil more tight he could of won!! That bounced on take off was his downfall..
For sure! It was a good race, it was just a cool grouping: 2 very different sleepers.
Nice😎
Hey, thanks!
Sea foam?? Just…. I dunno..
Barryman, but that wasn’t the “fix”. That was only to clean out any residual junk. This car sat 9 years and we’ve gone through it working down a lot of little and semi-big issues. This is just a clip from the last video.
@@LoganDidItYT right on. Honestly, I’ve done the same thing… I guess I just assumed that was an attempt to fix it. A SeaFoam repair is right up there with the radiator leak repair fluid 😂😂
@@vc7493 oh yeah, I’ve used it before, but after tearing some engines down and seeing what’s left behind I won’t do it any more.
@@LoganDidItYT it is good if you wanna smoke out your shop 😆 Other than that… nope.
@@vc7493 haha. I definitely did. It was bad
What do you think we should do??
LS swap it! Or did you get rid of that motor?
@@Knownworldwide I got rid of it. But… that’s always an option.
I swapped the magnetic part rotor thing for $20 it was cracked in 2 spots. 2000 miles since replacement
I never thought of doing that, I didn’t know you could buy just the impeller. Good info!!
@WeedmanSmokes805 what is the part number for the magnetic rotor part?
@@RoopsPhotomy bad it was one of the first ones that popped up on Amazon. It’s been about 24,000 miles still good 👍🏽
Apologies if it's already been said. The Aisin branded pump uses the same casting for the case as the Toyota branded part then grind off the Toyota logo since they're not allowed to indicate it's an OEM part.
Yep! You’re right! Internally into the same too, which makes sense since they make them for Toyota!
Lol that’s a great short man
Thanks! Haha
I had a sudden loss of power and triangle of death also showed. I was able to coast on hybrid battery for about a mile. Then towed it to a dealer. I was afraid it would be expensive, but they actually fixed it for free. Turns out, most of the hybrid things like inverter, relays, etc - are under some mysterious forever warranty.
I’m glad it wasn’t more serious! But, I didn’t know they were covered “forever”- that’s awesome.
So what they fixed on your Prius, what was it???
If you’re asking me, it was a head gasket and water pump.
@@LoganDidItYT Well that sucks
@@LoganDidItYTthey're, "covered forever"? That's why I just bought one from a guy who was told by the dealership that it would be $22,000 to fix. I got this sweet 2007 Yota High Hy for $700. Now trying to figure it out. Got it to say, "READY" but immediately the Check Hybrid System light turns back on. I'm thinking it just needs a GOOD new main battery. Nothing to do with the Hybrid stuff at all. What do you think?
