Love that one!!!!
That's not what Slick 50 said. :) Just joking, Oil is Supreme.
@@anthonyray5515 lol
Hahahaha nice one!
Everyone needs a Danny his knowledge is invaluable.
Check out the billet pumps. They are big $$ but they don't crack and have other issues of normal oil pumps/ pick up tubes. Awesome video. Nice to see something thinking!
Hahah, love the back of your shirt..."Fix Shit Up"
Thank you!!!
Magnet so it stays in place and putty to check clearance. Genius 👌🏻
Once again I learned something watching you guys.
Thank you!!! HAHA yeah we did this on a weekend, so figured it was only appropriate to play with clay :)) can't take anything too seriously !!
@@FayeHadley I might do the same thing on my 22RE. Seems like a good idea 😁
Great video!!! The magnet and the clay idea is genius.
Faye, love the back of your shirt. Danny, brilliant explanations.
YOU GUYS ARE AWESOME!!! Take care🇵🇷😎💪
Thank you so much!!!! I know I just love all of the things that Danny does that are so simple yet so freaking brilliant!!! and of course it was a Saturday so we can't really take our work too seriously. .... so it's only appropriate that we play with clay 😅
I lost all oil pressure in my Supra and Rods knocking, I should have filled it with Lucus oil before trading it in !!!
The power of magnets. A magnetic oil plug, eureka! Playing with silly putty is brilliant. Also, welding that delicate wire mesh was incredible. I couldn’t see your chickie’s face, there she is. She’s purring. Happy bird, happy Faye.
Isn't she just so precious!?!! That was the first time I had ever heard a chicken make a sound like that. (bringing back some oldies as I clean out some files on the ol' desktop!! And isn't it so smart?!! Danny has all of these tricks that seem so simple, but I would have NEVER thought of!!
She is so precious. I love chickens so much I wish I tote mine around in a little purse like rich ladies do Yorkies. Lol 👜 🐓
You restore my faith in people. A genuinely real, intelligent, and hilarious person who has the bill nye the science guy version of a wrencher for a partner in grime! I love cars and Faye..... also cannabis... just throwin it out there!
🤣🤣🤣
I love your energy and enthusiasm, sharing the love for the automotive habit
Danny is the man learned some kool stuff from him like Dad .you are kool too.Toyota for ever right
No TIG weld is easy, nice job Danny!!!!!!!!!!!!
I think the large majority of 7m's that rod knock come from people that have blown a head gasket and got coolant in the crankcase which strips the bearings. Most just slap another head gasket on and end up with rod knock a month or two down the road. Seen it SO MANY times throughout my 15 years of driving these cars. And while I've dealt with a couple blown head gaskets on my supras, I've never had one knock on me.
Same!!!! Couldn't agree more!
Just found out about you from the Working from Home episode on MotorTrend. That was a great video and your degree in psychology really shows in that episode. You would fit right in here in Salem MA. I really dig your energy and the work I saw in that episode. All these car and build videos are really keeping me going during this isolation. Wrench therapy indeed!
Subscribed!
Awwww than you so much, and I really appreciate the sub!!🙂
Cool video, Faye. Looks like a really good upgrade to the oiling system on your engine. Looking forward to see all of the work to get the engine running. Love the chickens too.
Thank you!
I love TIG Brazing. Especially in decorative locations where it can be seen since the braze material (Bronze) is a different color than the base metal.
did you add the shimm!!LOL!!! love the majestic chicken so fancy !!!! great video!!!
Slick lil custom addition!
Thank you!!!
I love listening to this guy talk! Thanks for the content Faye!
Me too he is the best!! Thank you!
Nice to see you folks gave us some 'screen' time. Best to you and yours.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
ouuuuu soo that's why!! welp I'll be doing this once I make the other oil line bigger in the oil pan as well as this ! Thanks Faye!
Why do you have to be so far away? You seem like you would be SO much fun to hang out with. Smart, mechanically inclined, always down to earth & happy, and that laugh is just too adorable! Would love to be able to hang out, and work on stuff with you. So much I could learn just from watching you do your thing alone.
Awesome mod. Nothing like fabrication to make things better! Keep the supra kicking ass!
Great job Faye
Hi Faye,that's a great job on the pickup.
Thank you! 😊
Faye......what sets you apart from the other Women working on cars is: 1. You look to hang out in a real machine shop, very cool. 2. Book club, Smokey Yunick, an American hero, in my opinion you seem to care about hot rodding history. I'm very impressed, you will go far. Could you possibly consider drag racing in a American car?
Well thank you!! I wouldn't say no, I just really love my Supra.
FAYE!! did you replace the hardpipe with the banjo fitting in between the pump and the block?! The banjo fitting is a huge restriction in that part of the line, and it cuts oil flow down drastically. You can eliminate it with a couple of AN fittings and some stainless braided -8 hose... or Driftmotion makes a kit... that is just as important as the pickup tube!! also, a Full flow oil cooler. You have to delete the stock oil cooler setup, which only works under higher RPM. you need consistently cool oil for that engine and turbo!!!
@0:13 dude, Fairy dust transitions !!!!!
YOU KNOW IT!!!!!!!!!! Thank you for noticing!!
Learn something every time you and Danny do a video, you struck lucky Faye. There was a moment when you went from cut sleaves, tatoo'd arms to leopard skin, I thought my vision is getting seriously bad now. Re focused, ooh that was lucky! :-)
once again i woke up early on a day off. when i decided that going back to sleep wasn't happening, i opened the RUclips. first vid it recommended? one from Faye of course! always enjoy the positive vibes! plus total the 4th momentum, i hear you say, "is that a magnet?" immediately i said out loud "that's genius!" then i hear you say the same thing in the vid. the 4th is out there, or universal synchronicity moment...hmmm? ☮️🐝➕ cool mod! 👍
Haha awwww so cool!!!👍🏻😅
So can we now just start sending Danny all our 7M bits for him to modify similarly?
Great job Faye & Danny looks awesome.
Love your silkie!!! So cute! Good job on that oil pickup tube!
Thank you!!!
Thank you for the video Faye, this was a neat modification , great weld, I love it and of course the chicken
Thank you!!!
i have wrecked alot of 7mgtes. they would spin rod bearings from low oil pressure at low rpm and high load. i was running them in my offroad truck. the oil pump just isnt spun fast enough at idle to create the pressure you need in abusive conditions
thats it the chicken are Definitely the mascot of the channel
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
That was a nice peice you made..keep up the great work...
Awesome mod! One of those things that people might not even think about until they see a great vid like this. :P
THANK YOU!!! :) So glad you liked it!!
All about flow, Not pressure.
Look really good to me; btw, you'd put the same face cutting the grill that when you'd performed "surgeon" on the chicken timer, the same face that my friends use to put when they were doing acid. See you the wednesday! and say hi to Danny and Elaine too. Stay well
Hahahaha OMG!!! That's amazing! See you Wednesday!
Thats a cool upgrade
May the 4th be with you. Love your show
We've all learned a lot from you and Danny. Thanks.
;))
Loving the back of your Toyota shirt!
Great Video 👍..
Hey just saw your channel. Been watching you on AGG .Didn't know you had a channel.. I SUBED 😁
YAY!!
Thanks for sharing this, great information.
Glad you enjoyed it! :))
Cool oil pump mod Faye. Danny is the man. See you guys on Wednesday book club. The chicken is awesome. Speaking of chicken, did you guys fix the chicken timer? 🐔⏰😊👍
HAHAHAHAHAHA no not yet, it isn't really meant to be serviceable... everything is plastic welded together. I haven't been to the PO box yet, but I have an idea that there may be one waiting for me in the mail..... ;)
Good morning!! awesome way to start my day.
🙂
Nice!!
Nice work. Thx for the video!
THANK YOU SO MUCH!!
Faye: “Hey RUclips it’s Faye!” 😊
Captions: “Hey RUclips it’s BAE!” 😍
:)) Awwww
Oh yeah me love supra saga!!
😃😃😃😃😃
✝️🇺🇸👍 as a metal fab person I will give it to you there's no way I could grind in shorts your a lot tougher than I am God bless stay safe and thanks for the video
HAHA I didn't even burn my legs at all!!! But yeah, I definitely wasn't planning on doing this when I got dressed that morning! I would also wear pants to do metal work like this for sure for sure.
That is a trick oil pick up mod !!
nice work faye. have a great day!
Thanks Kurt, you too!!!
Hey Faye looking back at this for oil improvements for my drift build. Was wondering if you’ve seen any improvement with this mod or potential issues?
Cool mod
Luv your laugh Faye
😃
I love your videos 😍
Love your vids Faye!
Faye you are the ultimate young lady , you have the looks , i love your attitude , you are an awesome mechanic . You set a great example for all woman . Keep it up . Oh by the way I love your tattoos , so cool . 👍💪👍💪 I wish I had a girl friend just like you .
I like watching All Girls Garage . You ladies Rock .
Did you secure the magnet? I wouldn't want to see it move towards and block the pick up tube. That would suck. Or rather not suck!
Faye's production Co. Chicken Productions. When will the chickens have their own intro splash and theme? :) Nice oil pickup mod!
Good question! HAHA Oh my god that needs to happen BADLYYYYY
Love your laugh Faye
😃
👍 Nice job!
Came out nice!
Thank you!!!
Great video.
Thank you!!
Every time I watch a video I always wonder how she pays Danny for all his work and experience. 💸💸💸💸
The only question how to clean magnet if you weld it inside the pick up
Good video thanks for sharing the experience. Howver with your long hair, would like to think Workplace safety wise it was how you you say packed up more and away fron the grinding machine.
I really feel bad for Faye because when the inherent failure of the infamous 7M happens no matter what you do to it it's a lot of time down the toilet but it is a learning experience all the same either way good luck!
Just wondering y not just wel a piece big enough to go round the whole base before removing the screen.
Fix shit up,🤘.
:)) indeed!!!
I love your vidios x
Nice tattoos!
Thanks!!!
Great seeing more of your tattoos love em. Can I ask you the meaning behind the one on your shoulder with the wand on the brain? Does it stem from your days of being a psychology major days?
I prefer a magnetic plug instead, then it can be inspected and cleaned, and wont move and get stuck in pipe
I do have a magnetic drain plug!! I think you misunderstood what that magnet is for! It was to hold the pick up screen components in place while we measured for the clearance on the oil pan!!
@@FayeHadley sorry ,my mistake
Hey Faye!! It's Jeff 👈
Hi Jeff!!!
I'm guessing the one thumbs down is because there wasn't enough chickens 😝
You're probably right 😬 I gotta work on that!!!!
Sweet mod Faye!! 🙌🏽
Have a great week!!
#internationalchickenday 🐔🐔
Are you shimming the pump relief spring or are you just going to throw it in there as is? Also, do you plan on using an aftermarket oil pressure gauge? Im guessing so since the sending unit you have on the block looks aftermarket. Interested to see what your oil pressure will be!
As I stated the video I shimmed the pump 5mm 5 years ago
@@FayeHadley ah i must have missed that! Did the same to mine. It didn't seem to have an effect on the pressure. I did upgrade to the driftmotion oil feed line.
I made my oil pan wide now it holds 8qts on my 7mgte
Love you !!!! Great info ! Give me more ,, thank you 🙏
wear a mask, Faye!
m3phi3 That’s family right there “no need”
Chickens fro is beautiful today 🙂
Thank you!!!!
“Bock” 🐓your welcome 🙂
Hello!!! Just curious as to how this performed?
Can you do some cold start or hard start videos? Thanks!!
Faye I’m not a true mechanic but should you have not epoxied the magnet to the base? Plus if you get in there again how are going to clean it out?
Oh it's only there to hold the screen in place while we checked the clearance on the bottom of the oil pan - not a permanent fixture. I removed if before Danny welded it! Sorry for not being more clear about that!!!
My Supra sucked ! I got less than 100 thousand miles before the Rods started knocking 🙁
I dunno. Me thinks that chicken might need shimmed
HAHAHAHAHAHAAA!!
I'm going to do the same thing! Now, where is that tuna can?
Hahahaha exactly 😂
If I fill the engine with gear lube will that fix my oil pressure problem ???
Morning! Faye!
Morning!
Good girl! 🖐
Instead of cutting of the tube, couldn't you just have drilled a hole or two in it so that the air had somewhere to go?
exactly what i thought
Great question!! That absolutely defeats the purpose of this mod!! I want to be sucking there oil from as low in the pan as possible. If I dtill holes, then I am back to square one, Or actually... Worse!!!!
@@FayeHadley I think they're saying drill a hole in the side of the tube right where it hits the plate AND add the ring... but I think removing the tube is cleaner.
Morning faye another day another dollar 😁
Yessir!!!!
I dunno if I have asked before but have you got an upgraded oil pump to block cross pipe? Stock one has a crushed tube and banjo fitting which is super restrictive
Hey youtube!
I like faye 🥰😎
I did this mod for my 7mgte. We'll see how I goes.
Oh heck yes!! I have done it for both of mine now! I look forward to hearing back !!
@@FayeHadley so far so good. I ended up doing the pick-up mod, the AZ hardpipe that removes the banjo bolt, and the upgraded spring from Driftmotion. Cold start oil pressure is around 20 psi and warm idle oil pressure is still probably just around 5 or 7 psi. So not much of a difference from the spring. I'm just hoping the rest of the mods allow for better continuous oil flow.
I have an AEM V-1 in the car now with a rough tune that is still getting tweaked. So far driving around has been fun. 😃
Cool ......
