No, unfortunately, most "Stop Leak" stuff is just snake oil in a bottle.

I have not heard anything about that year range. I only made the video since I had heard dozens of reports about them being "liftable" but no good videos online about it.

I was going to say the same thing!

I do not remember exactly, its been a long time since I did the job, I may have removed the exhaust from the header and dropped it out of the way.

Yes, it still works awesome, I am currently moving to a bigger shop since I bought a trailer park about 1 month ago, so I plan on following up with better quality content for the channel, and doing an update video on the machine as to the couple minor issues I have had. If you advertise doing the tire service for hire, I charge $5-$10 per tire swap if they are brought off the vehicle, however some bigger stuff and low-pros I won't do, or I will charge $20-$30 per tire. But the machine pays for itself within the first few months passively doing it 1-2 times a week. As for air compressors, I bought a Black Diamond brand (a Knockoff of the Iron Horse brand) and it has worked excellent. 3 years on it so far and changed the filter and oil every 6 months. Also, it is a good idea to buy an automatic air tank drainer off eBay, about $80 and it works off air pressure when the machine is running to open a valve and drain any water in the tank for a few seconds. I just bought that today as well but have not installed the compressor at the new place. PS As for the tire balancing machines, I HIGHLY recommend using them vs balancing beads. I have about a 70% success rate with the beads working, but I just did not have the space to buy a balancing machine at this shops location. I am going to buy a used, older, name-brand balancing machine I think, but I may end up going with a $900 Mayflower brand off eBay, have not totally decided on that yet.

Sorry, I am just now seeing this. I have never heard of a transmission solenoid being ANYWHERE near an engine before, ley alone IN the engine. Every single trans solenoid I have dealt with has always been inside the transmission oil pan, or on the valve body in the trans oil pan. It's possible that people mean you have to remove the engine oil pan in order to access that solenoid, but that's unlikely.

@@samsauto1640 Thanks for replying. I looked under my car, the transmission side. The only one I see is the drain plug. Or do I go under the oil drain plug itself? I was also told it’s the one below the two big hoses for the radiator, just below the intake?!

Thanks!

I heard that the 85 and 86 model could als obe lifted but i think the rear has a different system to this . Know any info about this ?

I do not, I have even been looking for a parts machine for almost a year now.

@@samsauto1640 prayers for both of us 🙏🏻

It is still going strong with no issues thankfully! I would not hesitate to but another if I needed one.

@@samsauto1640 thanks for the replay !!

Every after market 2din bezel I have seen is molded in only one color and many of them have terrible reviews.

I was aware of that, but this was one of those time crunch things being as I live out in the country I did not have the time to wait a week for the correct connector to show up, the one they sent me was for a newer generation, so I just had to work with what I had at the time.

@@samsauto1640Walmart sells the plug too but it’s $9

For me, it screams like a banshee when I turn in high gear. I just did a TON of work on the machine a couple of weeks ago and filmed some of it but won't have it edited for a while. My only gripe with it so far is the parts availability and price. I bought 3/4 of the last gaskets on the internet for the left and right-hand drive pumps where mine was leaking slowly. But the wheel seals around the drive hubs were close to $150 a piece or more if I remember correctly. So even though it was a hack repair, I smothered them in RTV and they do not leak so far after 10 hours of hard use moving snow.

Did you ever find the solution? My pioneer is wired up but I have no sound. I do have the factory amp. I have no idea how to bypass 😢

I miss something? He said $5k for this L35

Still putting along just fine, I had to reseal all 4 cylinders the other week and I still have that major leak but I DID get the gasket delivered last week. I wont be fixing that leak till spring, but hopefully I can get around to putting out the cylinder rebuild video soon.

I am using it at the max my 60-gallon air compressor creates which is 125. I have done over 1,000 tires so far with no issues.

I heard that the 85 and 86 model could als obe lifted but i think the rear has a different system to this . Know any info about this ?

Hightening the suspension also makes the wheel camber positive on the front, and makes the prop shaft ujs steep on the rear.

It came with a couple of low-quality tire irons and a bead roller, I just went to harbor freight and got a better quality and much larger tire iron.

It depends entirely on the model radio you are installing. I am pretty sure I bought an adapter but did not use it, but it's better to spend the $10 and not need it than to have to tear everything apart in a couple weeks and do it over again.

​@@samsauto1640 exactly right haha, had to tear it apart twice after realizing I forgot the antenna wire, then I realized it wouldn't fit. I just don't listen to the radio so it slipped my mind. but nah if it helps anyone else it was a pioneer double din pretty new, and yes it does need an adapter.

For sure GM has to use a MICRO antenna connector just to screw with you. All aftermarket radios I have ever seen use the standard larger size antenna connector. So be prepared
