A venerable compendium of mucking about in the garage and around the house. Some technical rubbish, and some stuff just for a smile. A couple of beers and a few cups of coffee along the way. The channel where the only thing worse than the content is the production.

Suzuki SX4 AWD Clutch Replacement
Просмотров 56321 день назад
Lengthy video detailing the simplified (no drop of the sub-frame, transfer or steering rack) approach, start to finish. Subject vehicle is a 2009’ AWD, 2L gasoline, 5 speed with 257,000 km on the odometer. Note: All this footage was previously posted in a 5 part series. It was always my intention to clip it together, to show the job in its entirety upon completion.
30 Year Old Snowblower Left For Dead !

Can it be resuscitated ? Is the Chinese clone carburetor kit any good? Does it fit? Small Tecumseh 4 Stroke, 2 stage. Ignore the rubbish @ 12:18 I am spouting about (ring) “blow by”. Much more likely it’s completely normal crankcase pressure pulsations from piston reciprocation.

Suzuki SX4 (Copper) Otofix D1 Lite Auto Scan
Просмотров 323Месяц назад
Just a look at both scan tool and vehicle with history unknown to me. Subject vehicle is a 2009’ AWD 5 spd M/T with 257,xxx km. Colour is included in the title in an attempt to distinguish it from the other 2 SX4’s in the stable. Bit redundant considering the thumb nail.

Why the file “name” doesn’t match the update date detail ??? I have no idea. Perhaps this update will address some ongoing issues. We’ll see… The somewhat annoying music is just a mechanism to break the monotony of the mundane task.

Hello. What a great video. You can see that it is quite a lot of work to change the clutch. Query, what liquid do you use to clean surfaces? Excellent work.
The other thing do you recommend the brand luk?
Just a degreaser followed by some aerosol brake cleaner on the inner bell housing and block. Brake cleaner to remove the packing oil film from the flywheel face and pressure plate. Thx for the kind words and watching 👍🍻
Does seem well made. Little disappointed the pilot bearing wasn’t one of the quality brand names 🤷♂️
@@TheGibby3340 Thanks a lot. I'm among the brands valeo, luk, or exedy
Well this car has rust instead of metal. I am shocked from this! Why are you fixing it, it is a wreck.
What scan tool are you using? Ive purchased two with none of the options that you have. Thanks
The Autel MD802 elite. Not sure if it is still on offer from Autel, likely superseded. Thx for watching 👍🍻
Can you make a video on how to use and set up this Oscilloscope
Good catch
Good to know. More often than not i end up in a parking lot relying on my own power.
🤣🤣🤣
Great another tool I'll likely never need but I must own. 🤣🤣🤣
Correct, one can never have too many blow molded cases, containing tool which rarely see the light of day 😁
Nice video!. Thanks 👍🏼
Thx for watching 👍🍻
I love when someone does something fairly simple but never occurred to me. Thanks. Question: Can you override the engine shut down when the battery is charged for diagnostic purposes?
Sorry not sure I understand the question?
@TheGibby3340 sorry let me try again. You mentioned that once the main battery becomes fully charged the computer shuts off the engine. Effectively putting an end to whatever you are measuring on the running motor. Is there are way to keep the engine running regardless of the charge status of the main battery?
@mfsperring Ok,ok…sorry Mark. I haven’t seen this video for ages so completely forgot the context. Hybrids tend to have maintenance modes available. Scan tool or even in vehicle procedures you can perform, which can keep the engine running for testing/inspection purposes. 👍🍻
Thank you! Now that I know what my sx4's shifting problem is I can keep ignoring it a while longer 😅.
Wait until your elbow gets really sore…them action it (like I did)🤣
Just get glasses.
The sx4 is such an underrated beast of a car. I put 287k on mine before i let her go. I'm always looking for a nice cheap one on fb. Cheers bud
Completely agree…Thx for watching 👍🍻
Thanks for the additional info! This helps a lot 👋🏼😊
The short video just happened to be on my phone, when you posed the question. 👍🍻
Found the kit on EBay but doesn't. Seem to come with the tri bearing (not picture with the kit). Did you get the bearing with the kit.
Yes it does come with the tri-bearing. Seem to recall wondering the same at the time of purchase, as the bearing was not clearly pictured in the kit. If you order the P/N detailed you’ll be alright. Thx for watching 👍🍻
Hi , thanks for sharing your knowledge. I have just purchased an 07 grand vitara two door with the keyless start option .. the car came with no keys so I had purchased just the key from the dealer and got that programmed. I am able to start the car with that in the ignition switch. My question is , can I buy a second hand key fob and will I be able to program it to unlock the doors and be able to start the car without the key in the switch if so what is the procedure to do that ? Appreciate any insight
I never knew about alignment holes. Seems obvious now but never crossed my mind before.
What a crazy routing for a filler tube. Ive replaced a couple over the years but they were all pickups. Pretty much a straight shot to the tank. Of course access blows for them so I guess you trade one for the other.
Thanks for the video! We are going to try this on my Suzuki this weekend. Greetings from Finland! 😊
Only apply heat as a last resort measure. Make sure you don’t melt the nylon bushing. Thx for watching 🍀👍🍻
@@TheGibby3340 it worked! we also made a tiny hole to the aluminium frame to get the oil where we wanted. No the shifter is like new 👍🏼😃
@annavanhala Nice…👍🍻
Ha ha ha. I just left a question on the first video that is now moot. I should have checked the video list first.
I know im late to thenparty here but does using the external usb storage give you the same issue?
They fixed this with an update. 👍🍻
@TheGibby3340 I know I just watched that video right after. Glad it worked out.
i v used dso152 with CR for a short time.stil works .but purchased atenuator as well.i must check is it mini bnc
The colder the weather the higher the likelihood your windows will give up the ghost. 😂
Good point 😁
Thanks for proving sometimes simple concepts are worth pointing out.
Underside of the wee Suzuki looks like very much like a Scottish motor. All that rust😂
Our roads can be treacherous. Corrosion from the salt comes with the territory. Thx for watching. 👍🍻
This series is the very definition of the word methodical.
That task was a bit challenging at times. Thx for checking it out. 👍🍻
I'm speechless. What an engineering f**kover.
Funny i watched this when it came out but i have no memory of it. Im guessing because i didnt get it then. This time i think i got it.😅
Cheers mate.
You never know what you're going to get on this channel. 👍
True 🤣 Not good for subscriber or view count, I’m told. I couldn’t care less 🤣👍🍻
@TheGibby3340 well I came back. I'm hoping that watching a bunch of you vids and commenting on them might trigger the algorithm a bit for you. So brace yourself for me commenting a lot for the near future 😆. Don't feel you are obligated to reply brother the way I see it you put the effort in on the front end. 👍
@mfsperring Thanks so much. Honestly I pay no reverence to the Algorithm Techno God. People dig it…cool. They don’t…also cool 👍🍻
Appreciate you doing all the research and simplifying for me.
Tricky to not oversimplify to the point where it’s near meaningless. 👍🍻
I'm glad you answered that question. It was niggling at me . 😆
😁
As a retired electronics engineer this is an excellent explanation of the circuit involved in making a spark plug fire (from ECU through coil and finally the spark plug). This is a 3 wire coil, but on some coil packs (like mine) the ground on the emitter of the built in transister comes out to the connector on the coil. But the concept is all the same. Thanks very much for your help.
Thx very much Sir & Thx for watching. 👍🍻
Hmm. I never knew that about start up. Hurray one more thing for me to remember. Lol
Thx again. 👍🍻
Just starting to catch up on your vids and I'm looking forward to learning about hybrids. Thanks for sharing and sorry it took so long for me to get back.
Nothing to be sorry about…thx for checking it out. 👍🍻
Niceee. A lot of snow over there ! .
Fair bit of accumulation this winter 🥶 Thx for watching 👍🍻
Oh it's a fish bowl. 😢. Drill a hole some will say.lol
I would have drilled a drain if it was just water intrusion, but the lens was damaged. Thx for watching 👍🍻
finally figured out how to get to the overlay menu watching your video thanks
Thx for watching 👍🍻
Still looking for someone to post a LIN (one wire) type smart alternator. Can you test it on the bench and how?
I have a Hantek DSO1062 and I really need to upgrade and I want to go pc-based, but I don't know enough to ask the right questions.
"no even real money"😁 Fergus is a nice little town ... wife was bugging me a few years back to move out there
I love that line…🤣 full credit to you for it. Fergus is a great little town, been trying to cajole the family to move there for years 😁 Cheers Denis. Thx for checking in 👍🍻🥶
Top stuff 👍😁
Thx Iain. We don’t “need” the car, so really there’s no big hurry. Other than putting the AWD capabilities to work in our favour in the Canadian winter ❄️ 🥶 👍🍻
👍🏼
Thx for watching 👍🍻
Should try the newer dso510 , 10mhz + function generator
Looks very similar to the 153. Will check it out. Thx for watching 👍🍻
@TheGibby3340 it is basically the same , but with better specs , still 1ch tho
Came to RUclips hoping u had made a rotor & pad vid! Making my life easier yet again!! About to tackle all 4 Rotors & pads on my 07. Glad u showed the right adapter for the rear caliper tool bcuz mine didn't list the Suzy. It was the only 4 pin in the kit so I was assuming.. but u know how that goes lol thanks again for these videos! Very descriptive and easy to follow!
A lot of tool applicability listings don’t seem to acknowledge Suzuki’s existence. Making them even more appealing 🤣 Thx for watching 👍🍻
@TheGibby3340 ya no kidding! Well hopefully this relatively easy job don't turn into an all day affair! Next is My down stream 02 and possibly Cat. I'm hoping the sensor alone will rid the code. Have u ever used a different brand other than denso ? Lots of fellow owners say the car don't seem to like the cheaper aftermarket sensors ..
@ryansheran738 Stick to the OEM when possible. 👍🍻
Very good video. Really accurate, everything down to the tightening information.!
Thx & thx for watching 👍🍻
Good video, its amazing how people will read a DTC and replace the part without further testing.
Alway best to take a moment and think it through. Thx for watching 👍🍻
Its a Hantek, cheap chinese junk, what do you expect, spend some money of decent unit and it'll work
It’s ok…Relax…So you have a Pico or a Snap On, so do I. Doesn’t mean there isn’t space to consider some products at the other end of the market. Not everyone can afford big money gear. The channel is only geared toward D.I.Y’ers. I am only a hobbyist myself. Thx for watching. 👍🍻
@@TheGibby3340 I am relaxed, Im sitting here grinning as your the one buying shite then youtube moaning about it
@@TheGibby3340 I am relaxed, Im the one sitting here grinning as I didnt buy cheap chink crap then do a youtube moan about it
@steveb936 Haha, ok you’ve made your point. And if I’m honest you’re right. As I’ve…Thx for watching.
I wonder if the product with oem code 11389-54L00 you installed is suitable for 1.6 petrol m16a motor vehicle. Thank you for your answer.
I can’t say for certain. Consult megazip.net as they have an extensive illustrated parts catalogue online. With detailed drawings and OEM part number listings. Thx for watching. 👍🍻
