    before you drain your oil always crack the oil filter and replace it first because one you crack it there’s a vacuum nd all the oil goes down to the sump so everytime your doing what your doing there is just mixing good oil with some of the old stuff that was at the oil filter👍🏻

    • @4uTheAnimations
      @4uTheAnimations 4 года назад +2

      Mercs with direct injection and these type of spark plugs have to be torqued in order for the plugs to be in the right place - if they’re not torqued you can get serious missfires

    Great video Mat,
    Actually watched this one a while back but I remembered you mentioning something about using muc off bike cleaner to clean an engine. I didn’t have anything else to use on me at the time so I remembered this vid. Great advice mate, I sprayed it on and scrubbed away at it with a brush and it went really foamy and dissolved all the dirt easily. I finished with some muc off silicone shine as well which made it look and smell amazing. Thank you so much Mat, so glad to see you are getting the attention you deserve
