Sir I have a merc 150 blk max engine. I need to replace the poppet valve so I made an attempt to do replace it but the rubber gromet that holds the poppet went down into the water jacket hole. Will I have to tare down the engine to retrieve it or is there another way to get it out?

Hi I found this video super helpful. I'm in a bit of a situation because my child lock is activated and the external door handle on the rear left door has broken so I have no easy way of opening the door from the inside and the outside. Can I take off the door panel from the inside with the door still closed to access the lock mechanism? Seems like a tough job! I have a 2012 Pathfinder

There is a video by Charlie do it all for situation like yours, it might help. It will be hard to take panel off with closed door.

I have an ‘06 and just a tip on removing the heater core manifold pipes that are under the hood. It is plastic and very fragile. I had to replace mine because of a hairline crack and a mystery coolant loss. One day a puddle under the pathfinder. Not cheap part either. But easy to replace. I did a heater core on my ‘88 Nissan years ago. Took out everything but the windshield and steering wheel.🤣 Thank you for the video!

Just curious why you replaced impellar as it looked ok ? I have the same 150 XR6 noticed when going slow it doesn’t pee good and alarm buzzes when wide open does fine but water is very hot to touch when peeing great job on video ! I’m doing this hopefully this evening if they have the kit
@FKCamVlogs23 күн бұрын
I replaced the impeller based on hours of use or timebsince last replacement, even if it may look ok, but sometimes fins deteriorate resulting in sometimes what you are experiencing

Why Lenco and not the Bennett Tabs? Also, why did you have to remove the hydrofoil, can't you have them both?
@FKCamVlogsАй бұрын
It was personal choice for tabs, the hydrofoil would create extra drag and lower the speed a little. The tabs are working as they should

I have this exact motor and finished the valve replacement yesterday using the same kit you used off of Amazon. I am getting water from the vent hole from the moment the engine starts. Before I order the OEM kit, is there something I should check to fix this problem?
@FKCamVlogsАй бұрын
Get the OEM, the kit from Amazon is cheap, gasket is bit thick, plus diaphragm doesn't site well. I redid many times, till I ordered the OEM

@FKCamVlogs Nice. I have two 2001 Mercury Optimax 150s. They're overheating and I am looking for solutions. I've already changed out the impellers and thermostats.
@FKCamVlogsАй бұрын
Did you used OEM thermostats? Did the wings of impellers are in same directions as the old ones? If yes to both then next thing on list is poppet valve, make sure to buy OEM as well
@kisdasenglothnamАй бұрын
@FKCamVlogs I found what the problem was. I had sent one of my ECUs to get repaired and didn't flush out the outboards. I left them for a week and a half. The salt crystallized and wasn't allowing the thermostats to open up completely which caused my port side outboard to overheat. I took out the thermostat housings and had to scrape off all the crystallized salt on both outboards. I also used a file and sandpaper to clean them all up. I took out my boat earlier today in the San Diego Bay and both outboards are good. And oh, I used the Quicksilver thermostats so yes, they are the OEM ones. Thanks for following up on my question. It is greatly appreciated. Now I will be going offshore fishing to hunt for yellowfin tunas, bluefin tunas, dorados and yellowtails down in Mexican waters.

I did it a while ago but it is easier if you open it all. Those allen screws are a nuisance, lube them with anti rust and install

If you cant afford the newer version, dont put it in your thumbnail. Basically clickbait. "Freezing" your wipers halfway your front window is different on the newest CLA
@FKCamVlogs2 ай бұрын
I am sorry for your lack of knowledge. The model you see in thumbnail is NOT a newer version, and regardless of the model, if you dont know how to, "freeze" then you dont. Dont blame your shortcomings on newer version or year. Also probably my garage has more cars what you can afford even if you work rest of your life. Take your car to dealer, you are the reason they are in business, if you cant afford service, dont buy cars that dont fit your budget. Note: You don't need to freeze to swap wipers.

What is upsetting you? Your car will never stay new,. I dont need to disclose to any John Doe what I have, if your car is CLA AMG then go look for that class youtube videos and learn how to talk.
