Thank you very much for sharing your wonderful thoughts
hello bro may i use this clip too ofc with credit thanx
Yes you may. Other than the requisite credits, my only request is that you come back here and post a link to your video. Thanks!
I just replaced mine today and your video helped. Very informative. Thank you.
Sence you pulled the whole thing out, perhaps a cote of whatever on the whole thing would have been smart. Just saying. Good jod thx for the video,peace
I just bought a whole thing of washer fluid. And watched the whole thing drip onto the ground
Good job...best video i ve ever seen ..well explained !!
Thanks for the kind comments. I really appreciate it!
YOU, Sir are a SAINT! Thank you ever so kindly for taking the time & care to make this content & share it with people. Sending you BLESSINGS!
Thanks for the kind comments. I really appreciate it.
Very helpful video and clean truck!
Thanks for the kind comments. I really appreciate it.
My ball joint is on their so tight the bolt on this tool and the threads of the lower ball joint started bending 😢, had to give up after a few hours if alternating between this tool, smacking the thing with a sledge, and prying with a crow bar. Hooefully ill have better luck tomorrow
I have a Toyota Venza 2013. I tried this but my gas door still doesn't open. Is there a way to open it from the inside of my vehicle? I saw another video showing all Toyotas have another way to pull a plastic cord from the inside in the rear, but my car doesn't have that.
You'll first have to research whether your gas door latch is actuated by a cable or electrically. Do you have a mechanical lever or an electrical button for that purpose in the cabin?
@@WorseThanChiggersIt turned out it was a broken cable, unfortunately not the spring. A mechanic managed to pry it open with a special tool. Didn't even charge me. I barely made it to the garage on empty. Rigged it up to stay open because I don't want to spend the money to fix the cable.
@@BonnieSmith-dn3tj At least you now know what the problem is. Nice that he didn't charge you for the work-around.
@@WorseThanChiggers thank you for responding. Great video by the way.
I installed everything the same way but when I went to put the radiator pins back in the pins went into nothing . But everything is on right
Back again to say thank you this video saved me . After you do it it’s a lot easier than it looks.. thanks again. For anyone who has a Cabrio .. I ended up have 4 bolts to take off on the radiator bracket . Great video
Amazing, thank you. You just saved me at least £100
nostalgia... man i wish i could go back to those times
noticed when you started the job fuel tank was under a quarter and it was full when done. good job.
Haha. Good eye! It's a little known fact that fixing a simple wiring problem can result in a full tank of fuel. :)
I shut my car off . The fan never stopped spinning even after an hr of it cooling down . Was fine the last few times I seen it turn on and off. You think this is the Coolant sensor on the radiator failing ? I took my plug out and liquid came out
The battery completely died also
No doubt if the fan never stopped running. You need to check why power is continuing to be fed to the fan. Start by testing the coolant temperature sensor.
@@WorseThanChiggers I don’t even know how to test it. Bought a new one for 11$ since I’m changing the radiator I’ll just change that also
I recommend researching how to test components and perform other simple diagnostic procedures. Otherwise, you can end up replacing parts unnecessarily without confirming the root cause of a problem. You could have a bad fan relay or something else going on which would be important to confirm first. Think about it logically. If the fan is running continuously, it is receiving power. Work your way back through that system to see where the power is coming from. If it goes through a relay, test and confirm that the relay is good. If so, test what is commanding the relay to close.
@@WorseThanChiggers also what I’m struggling with is my car is a 95 cabrio . You said the two 13 bolts in the front reflector . But I’m not sure if it’s the same for me . I see 8 bolts down here . ( bumper is off )
I just wanted to comment and express my sincere gratitude and thanks for you putting this video series together. My wife and I just finished her head gasket fix on her 99 4Runner and we couldn’t have done it without this. This series not only gave us the step by step process but the confidence to even attempt it ourselves. Out of all the videos on swapping head gaskets out there this is by far the best. An fyi for anyone out there looking to do this: there are slight differences between the engines and model years. Ours is a 99 and we noticed several places where our particular engine didn’t match up with the one in the video. It threw us off at first but quickly realized his was a 95 and ours is 4 years newer.
Thanks for those very kind comments. I really appreciate it! Congrats to you and your wife on a job well done.
hows the gasket going to this point is the engine still running ? how many KMS/miles has it done then and now
It was still running great at 255,000 miles when, sadly, I had to sell it due to the dreaded frame rust problem that plagued early Tacomas. It failed to pass our state's annual safely inspection. RIP, trusty old friend.
Very good video thanks bro
Great video. I'm doing my 96 jetta this week and have the confidence now to do it.
Thanks for the kind comments. I really appreciate it! Please come back here next week and let us know how your experience compared to mine. I'm always interested in how things differ, both challenges and successes.
So far the right side is ready for the bearing that will be here wednesday. Although I used a slide hammer to get the hub out instead of your method of using a socket to beat it out. I want to do the passenger bearing also but need to find the tool you used for removing the ball joint.
Like you, I'm trying not to have an alignment done. So need to research more on the passenger side.
Way better than a tornado
Excellent video thank you.
Thanks for those kind comments. I really appreciate it.
Clearest video explanation I can find on this.. thank you
Thanks for those kind comments. I really appreciate it!
“schools will remain open”
No 😭😭
I love how almost 80% of replies on this video are solely concentrated on chair
How many miles did you have on this truck when the gasket/head was replaced?
It was around 250K. Pretty good for a Toyota.
Great videos. Why not remove the lower timing cover/crank pulley to make reinstalling the timing belt easier?
Because removing the crank pulley bolt can sometimes be a real challenge.
Is it a completely different switch on a 2003? I see nothing resembling this switch on mine.
I don't know if they changed it in your 2003 model as compared to my 1995. Is yours also a manual transmission? The automatics are definitely different.
The strangest thing about this ends up being that despite the heavy snowfall, the snowfall itself ends up being basically invisible. Gorgeous video though thank you for sharing!!
We got snow and freezing rain in Luxembourg causing dangerous conditions this winter❤
Your video was stolen and used in some silly ad about a mobile game being a snow blower guy
Link for the special tool????😂
Great video, rebuilt my Briggs and Stratton carb & now my lawnmower starts right up
That must be quite a mower if it needs a battery this size. :)
Thanks for making this, its truly a great DIY video, easy to understand and easy fix. You helped and saved me a lot of time trying to figure this out.
Hey there! Could I also utilize your videos, giving proper credit?
Yes with proper credits AND you must come back here and post a link to your video. Without that, I reserve the right to submit a strike.
Awesome video!!!!
As someone from the southern hemisphere, I've never lived anywhere it does have snow, I always feel heat and rain.
Going to do this with my son on his 02 Tacoma with 260k. Hope it goes half as smooth as yours. Great Video will probably be our bible/reference during the job.
Wonderful father-son project! Good luck and let us know how your experience compares to mine.
@@WorseThanChiggers WTC we got it done it started and runs smooth however we got a P0340 code may have to go back in and change cam shaft position sensor. Great videos we would have been lost without them.
@@Moc619sd Good job! Hope you can work out that last little gremlin.
I just replaced my entire suspension on my civic and THIS TOOL saved me! I did everything I could, even ALL the hammer tricks. Thank you for the upload!
Glad you had success with your project. That's what we like to hear!
Could the coolant have been laking from the exhaust manifold gasket? It has coolant chambers and fuel injection chambers, and maybe it mixed together there.
Possibly but it was a fairly well confirmed diagnosis that the cylinder head itself was cracked in that area.
Hello Worse Than Chiggers! Can I use your video in my video plus comments to help people learn lessons so they can drive safer? I'll put your name on the screen, thank you for reading.
Yes you may as long as you provide those required credits. The other request is that you come back here and post a link to your video in these comments. Thanks and have a great day
@@WorseThanChiggers yes
Ive got 4 O rings in the kit. One blue one which i can see where yours went but the other ones 2 are thicker and 1 thinner but appear the same diameter. Which goes where? Im trying to figure out which goes on the high pressure line. The thinner or thicker O ring
Suggest just comparing the ones you take off to the new ones and replace them accordingly.
Why use a tool designed for a job when you are still going to use the good old hammer... pain dumb if u ask me
So you don’t rape your bushings 🤝
zero experience expert here
Thx again….
Harbor Freight has a press for sale too. Also, You're making your life too hard trying to get that bearing race off. Simply flip it over and take a torch to it, heating it up in just one spot and watch it fall down. When it does this, lift up the hub and let it fall the rest of the way off. Easy breezy.
I was under the assumption that you needed something better than the typical propane torch to get it hot enough. I don't have an acetylene set up.
Legendary
good lord, waaay too much work for such a minor problem lol. You're bound to cause more problems just trying to fix this not worth it!
Logical diagnosis followed by methodical and straight forward repair. If you'd elaborate, we're curious what specific problems you are anticipating this procedure might cause?
Productive video!!
I remember this blizzard!! We got weeks off of school and I played outside with my dog for majority of the time <3
I can’t imagine the work you have to do after those weeks, for me, sometimes I have remote day or weeks off, but when I get back, I have a lot of work
2024= owner just bought 2013 I have this problem. Thank you
Thank you!
