    I realize you guys are promoting A1A parts but as a three Toyota vehicles owner - using ANYTHING but OEM Coils on a Toyota is simply wrong. Every day of the week and twice on Saturday!

    I started wrenching in 1958, we would put a bottle ( about 12 ounces ) of hydrogen peroxide through a capillary tube into the intake at idle when it was empty put in the same amount of water, this was supposed to create oxygen to burn off carbon buildup on valves and cylinders. It actually did work fairly well. I'm sure the chemistry experts will comment on this method. We also put a 12 oz can of alcohol in the radiator for anti freeze and a can of water soluble oil on the coolant for water pump lube. Wrenching has come a long way. I later became a jet mechanic in the military and worked on F-4, A-7 and F-16's. Quite a difference. Sue is an amazing technician! I have found carbon tracks on the inside of boots and over the spark plug ceramic on my 3.5 eco boost. I change the boots when I change plugs, cheap insurance. Now, at my age i will do brakes and plugs etc and have a warranty and take it to the dealer so the modern techs can fix it. Great job both of you!

    In my experience their parts are junk but their videos are great. All suspension parts I replaced with their TRQ brand failed in a very short time. Less than a year for struts and ball joints, less than 2 years for tie rods and sway links. Won’t use their parts again , but still love their videos.

    • @ryan-uz1rw

    Your banter with Sue was fantastic. Even if the 1A collab doesn't survive long-term, you should still have her back! Plus, how great is it to have another set of hands in the engine bay so the work can be done on both sides at the same time? This is part of why I always loved working with my Dad.

    Great job Eric. This was yes an advertisement for an auto parts company but it showed the thinking process. It shows people that if you just use a little common sense you can do it. I had a 99 Avalon with the same engine and the same ignition system and I chased a misfire for a couple of months finally I sit down and I went through it and was able to figure it out. Good to see you’re making videos again.

  • @frugalprepper
    @frugalprepper 8 месяцев назад

    Great Video for the DIYer. I know most people don't have a lab scope. As a pro, I would scope the Secondary Ignition and look at the wave form. You will have Low KV around 5 or 6 with low compression or high KV 15 or higher, with compression. You can also see if the coil has and open, short, or the spark is leaking before it gets to the plug. You can also see if it has a lean misfire to tell if the injector is working. If I saw low compression I would verify it with a relative compression test and then finally a real compression test. Learning how to read secondary ignition or even primary ignition is a huge time saver on these.of
