      I will say Scotty has a valid point here. I am seeing more and more people pulling their old 90s cars and pickups galore out of the moth balls lately. I am this summer seeing some genuine classics back on the road being used as daily drivers. I have friend he played a major part in putting a customers home back together after a Holiday chimney fire and earned himself a 94 K1500 GMC that is not in bad shape. The customer ran out cash when it came to the floor and cabinets in the kitchen and the deal was made. New heads and new gaskets a radiator a little body work and the thing is rock solid again back on the road. The truck was destined to be junked but there again was a piece of what some would call junk but it was in far too good a shape to just throw it away.

I did the same, but it did not stop the leak, but it "seems" to have helped slightly. Blue Devil is guaranteed to work, but I did not attempt to collect a refund.

I made sure I changed the timing belt at around 100,000 miles along with the water pump and idler pulley. Good thing about having a older car is the local vehicle taxes are cheaper as well as the insurance on it. Thanks for the video it was informative and helpful.

    Great video. Everything is so familiar. I've got a 1995 Infiniti G20 that looks almost identical other than fancier interior including cracking leather seats. The car still runs great. Mechanics rave about the engine every time I bring it in. Unfortunately I had my first big issue last fall, during a trip to Pennsylvania. Oil light on. Oil everywhere. The first shop couldn't diagnose where it was coming from. I had it towed to a Nissan dealer. Turned out to be the rear main seal. Ouch. More than $1000. But on a trip I was stuck and losing precious days. I couldn't believe a small round piece of plastic caused so much trouble. We made it back to Florida and now have taken 3 subsequent trips. Even if I buy another used car soon I'll keep this one instead of selling it for nothing

    you can get a usb-c to 1/8 In. jack for real cheap. It just has a small usb controller in the USB-C connector I'm pretty sure. I can use my phone USB-C port to plug into my $15 3M sound protection headphones for when I mow my lawn!

    Go a 2011 BMW without the iDrive and it doesn't have bluetooth audio. They thoughtfully put an aux jack inside the armrest storage compartment and a 12 volt port. All I need is a Y cable to USB-C for my phone and it stays charged and great sound with only one cable to connect.

    Could've used the even older cassette tape adapter to headphones wire, since your phone still has a headphone jack (the upgraded phone probably won't, everyone's getting more RF whether they like it or not)

    Use Royal Purple engine oil. It will clean your piston rings so the engine performs best. But, it works like a slow engine flush so change your oil filter every 3k miles.

    Bluetooth and FM radio waves will not interfere with each other. You don’t need the wire to get quality sound.

    The big thing with the NIssans is the CVT. That one obviously doesn't have one and is probably from the era where Nissans were still mostly decent. It's when they went to their CVT transmissions around the late 2000's (maybe around 2007-ish) that they started to go down hill. Sounds like the guy got lucky though with the front main seal (if it was a rear main seal, well that would really change things...)
    The only issue with the phone/radio thing is that many phones are doing away with the 3.5mm jack. Even Samsung has stopped putting 3.5mm jacks on their phones (one reason I kept my old S10 around for listening/watching music and video). So for some people, this may not even work, and then you'd be better off just doing the radio swap or seeing if the factory radio has an AUX port in the back where you can wire in something else.

    Having installing many a after market stereo's for several decades, I can just about bet ithe $350 head unit will blow away the factory one just on the sound fidelity alone, (and if you swap out the stock speakers, I'd bet money there would be NO COMPARISON!

    Wish I still had my old Nissan hardbody. 500k miles on the original engine and transmission. I currently have a 2012 frontier with 160k miles, still looks and sounds newish. No issues yet except the ac compressor just went out on me. I doubt she will make it to 500k on the original engine and transmission but if she does ima throw a party. lol.
