As token of my appreciation to you I thank you for a great series it was very easy to follow great job on the filming(I know it's not easy to do and work on a car at the same time!) I like how you explained what you were going to do before hand with torque specs and bolt sizes to wrench and socket sizes then sped it up to get through it faster! Your parts list and recommendations were great as well and easy to follow!! You are a likeable guy to watch and I appreciate your humor as well! Overall I want to thank you for putting out this great video as it helped me immensely with my 2008 Suzuki Forenza! 👍✌️👊
Eric THANK YOU so much you are very kind and that is so appreciated, I will be sure to put it right back into the channel! It really means alot you enjoyed the series and even cooler to hear another vehicle is saved and back on the road! Well done! As you mentioned it's a pain to film and even more work to edit it all lmao but this is exactly why I do it!

I have mentioned earlier I am running distilled water the first couple hundred miles, but after I redo the coolant tank, the heater core and the radiator I am adding fresh Zerex G05 coolant! Make sure you THOROUGHLY FLUSH the ENTIRE system by draining the radiator and adding more distilled water, cycle it through by running it for a while and letting it cool off before draining the radiator again. When its completely clear drain the whole system and refill with Zerex G05. This coolant is meant for the Forenza per Suzuki! They have a TSB out on it explaining (TSB No. TS 01 01074) how you need silicate based, phosphate free coolant which is safe for aluminum heads and coolant parts!
What coolant did you use?
Thanks for the question & please take a moment to subscribe! I always post the tools/parts in my description, but this is the coolant you have to use: amzn.to/3VXS7id
Hey i need help with my 2004 forenza the serpentine belt doesnt fit how it should its loose and all my pulleys are in the right place the tensioner still works but the belt is loose can i video chat you for help?
Hi Rizzy thanks for the question and for subscribing! You just need to run the belt a longer way, I drew up a little diagram and do a walk through on the serpentine belt starting here (I time-stamped the link so it brings you right to it): ruclips.net/video/KZUcPoxWhaY/видео.htmlm10s
Thanks I rewatched the vid and I wish I could show you pics or something because it's still loose I'll try again tho
Take a screenshot of that belt diagram with your phone and slide under the car and make sure of your belt routing, because it can only go on one way and it was a TIGHT FIT for me lol. You use up alot of belt running from altenator to power steering up top, below the motor mount. The serpentine engagement is also a bit strange and it is WAY EASIER if you got a second set of hands. If you have someone swing the tensioner and you watch the belt loosen it'll make more sense I'm sure!
