I want to get into mechanics, but I lack the tools and spare car, so these videos are absolutely helpful. There’s a lot of new information to me, so I’ll be revisiting this video!
Great that you said to not use a ratchet when putting in plugs. One trick I find useful is to turn the bolt backwards until you feel the thread ends meet.
It is a quiet good video instructions to understand the importance of vehicles repairs and diagnosed the technical troubles you face daily with your vehicle, great videos, Thanks for your efforts to help people.
Excellent tutorial and presentation. It's unfortunate that much of the detailed important instructions on servicing the fuel filter are lost due to sloppy and obstructed camera angle shots, however. For instructional videos, the video production team should take the time and with the help of a mirror, two cameras or unobstructed work-bench views to rehearse, show and capture the critical points and images on the proper technique covered when disconnecting and replacing the fuel filter.
Wow! This was very educational for me. Being a nurse & interested in how the human body works, it was a interesting to see how my car innards function to keep my car running. Thanks Gene J
Dan I do enjoy your segments and I know it must be difficult to talk to a camera while you are working, and I thank you for them. I know I am being picky, but, you had the fuel running out of the back of the fuel filter all over the chassis and engine. Should you also have taken the precaution of placing a shop rag over the filter while you loosened the banjo bolt, in case of residual line pressure.? Shouldn't you also have shaken the contents of the old filter into a white plastic container to check for the fuel pump condition etc?
I brought my car in because it stop running i kept replacing coils 1997 4.3 L chevy the guy cut a spark plug wire crossteaded a plug hacks i got the car home i poped the hood started looking at the engine started it it was getting dark and i could see a wire sparking to the coil shut her down got some electric tape coverd wire fixed sometimes its that easy just because you got a shop doesant mean you have good mechanics
.can i ask .. how can i tune up a diesel engine . and how to use a manual torque wrench . ?? i'm a automotive student from phillippines and i want to know how to do that .
I know that e.g. the bolts for my ignition coil packs are special in that they kinda stretch a little; so once used, they are pre-stretched and you cannot use them a second time. So these are not your ordinary Walmart bolts, 100 pieces a dollar...
"Your car uses about 14 times as much air as it does fuel. If your air filter is plugged your car will use more fuel than it does air." No. If your engine is getting more fuel than air it isn't going to run. At all. I know what you meant to say, but it isn't what you said. It wouldn't be a big deal, but people come here to learn, then many will repeat this nonsense verbatim. This is how stupidity spreads. We have an epidemic of nonsense in this country.
+Norfolk Southern Lehigh Valley Railfan To anyone taking that advice: You have to be REALLY careful about the pressure if you do that, it's easy to blow very tiny holes in the filter (paper or fiber-type) and consequently let a lot more dirt into the engine. If the car were newer and under warranty, go with a new filter and don't risk it, but if it's an older car, it could save you money and some manufacturers would say it's OK. Again, just be wary about damaging the filter - the damage may not be obvious.
Walter Ostrander Well of course..... Dude 1973 Corvette sb350 and a 2001 Dodge Dakota with a cold air intake by Airaid 4.7l V8 287 with a 5 speed. Keep it old school fuck the new cars alright get it, got it,GOOD!

I really like the way you explain things. I was wondering if you have these and other videos for sale. Thank you
God bless Dan reed. He's the 🐐
Greetings from Sanbernardino valley college in California!
Some oil plugs have a magnet on the tip inportant to wipe medal shavings off it good teaching instructer
What about checking the coil for secondary voltage leakage??
thank you all the lectures are wonderful. hope students know about it. great teacher. regards.
Does the bottom of the fuel filter connection have crush washer's also ???
this video won't present ful screen. I can't see anything from the little tiny picture.
what if my fuel filter is in the gastank?

This great stuff and helping me very much.

Help full video.
Nice demo.
I really appreciate this video. Thank you.
.can i ask .. how can i tune up a diesel engine . and how to use a manual torque wrench . ??
i'm a automotive student from phillippines and i want to know how to do that .
why is it important to disconnect the battery when taking off ignition coil, I have changed one without disconnecting ignition coil
have you ever had problems taking of a EGR tube you that bolt and if so how did you solve it
uh, so how is a bolt expensive and can only be purchased at the dealer?
at stores like home depot they have all kinds of bolts?
+i am Viking because as he said, they're really special bolts lol
I know that e.g. the bolts for my ignition coil packs are special in that they kinda stretch a little; so once used, they are pre-stretched and you cannot use them a second time. So these are not your ordinary Walmart bolts, 100 pieces a dollar...
How is that 20,000 volts its running on a 12v battery or a 14v alternator???
The coil ups the volts at the expense of amps. Sort of like how an overdrive make the wheels turn faster at the expense of torque.
an ignition coil is a step up transformer.
very informative, thank you ...
nIce video tutorial Thank You!
I must be a fossil. I remember points and plugs.
plugs points condensers and carbs............... nope I remember them too
@@AdrianJayeOnline I do remember them as well!!!
Cool Video :)
@3:58 those leaves looks like someone just placed them in there for youtubes sake.
Last part lol

I would of just took my god damn air compressor to that air filter and blown that dust and dirt out.
