I’ve done hundreds of timing chains on ford 5.4, 4.6 and have never used a cam holding tool in my entire career. Even if the cam were to spring back there’s not enough pressure to damage anything at all.

your tumbnail is very missleading. theres no way unless your a car enthusiast or a car shop will want to spend 200 on the programming or clone tool. and anyone who has those dont need to watch this video..... would rather spend the 200+ have a professional with professional tools to do this the right way.

If the cosmoline did better on a mower deck, wouldn’t it make sense that it would do even better under a car. The undercarriage of a car doesn’t go through as much abrasion as the mower deck so the coating will stay on there

Trying to understand the gauges better. The valves closed prevent refrigerant from going "through" to the other side AND escaping via the yellow hose, correct? Similarly, they remain closed so that when you disconnect the yellow from the vacuum you don't then lose your vacuum from the blue-yellow. Where it gets weird for me is that the gauges can register pressures with valves open or closed. I guess if I saw the plumbing I'd understand it better. Great video.

Great video! I brought my Laptop out to the garage and followed step by step. Nice touch to show both the sequence of tightening the bolts but the torque spec as well. I still referred to Chilton and Haynes books. I went to 22 Ft. Lbs. Mainly because the car is older and I'm trying to seal a small leak coming from where bolt 8 is in your diagram. I have the PI version with aluminum water channel after my 1999 Mustang GT suffered the cracked thermostat housing issue. The intake is on back order. I can't wait for it to be in stock again. Whomever carries it sell a LOT of them!

I did Fluid Film one year and then switched to Surface Shield. It is thinner when applied and crawl and creeps deeper and it just feels really doing something. And, I live in Fairlawn, Ohio, and Blaster Surface Shield is made next door in Akron, Ohio, the Vatican of Goodyear and Firestone, that city has automotive DNA. Fluid Film was good I guess, like pig fat lard with a hint of basil and vanilla. Yet, Surface Shield is good lanolin and lasts longer, grabs better and is a light caramel color. And, Harbor Freight sells it for only $9.99. Four years so far and is still brand new. I do the aerosol and got an extension nozzle for aerosol cans with a multi directional tip that I can use inside doors and crevices. Only $8 in Amazon.

One thing not in that video is if the compressor cycles on and off every few seconds while idling or in very hot temps (90°F or above). The low pressure reading is not stable. It is fluctuating, what could be the problem? The two cooling fans also cycle on and off as well.
@RepairGeek13 сағат бұрын
What are the pressures?
@DeniseJackson-rd9rf12 сағат бұрын
@@RepairGeek When the compressor starts, the pressure reaches 35-40 PSI, then the compressor turns off, the reading reaches 70 to 80 psi, then the compressor turns on again and repeats the same thing. The ambient temp is 74°F. What I did today, I slowly release some of the Freon until gauge steady, the reading now is at 30-31 PSI, could it been the AC high pressure switch causing the problem? If yes, How can I check the switch?
@DeniseJackson-rd9rf12 сағат бұрын
I forgot to add one more thing, once the system is working, the air coming out the vent can reach 40-45°F, no bubble in the sight glass, but this problem repeat it self if the ambient temperature reach to 85°F or higher.

FYI We recently installed a new AC kit. Had an undetectable leak. No dye anywhere. Held perfect vacuum over night. Held 125 psi of pressure over night. Hook it up to the 175 psi compressor and found a bad hose crimp. Dont overlook the simple things. KISS. Weve always used lacquer thinner for flushing. Cheap, dries out easily blowing air through. Never had a problem. Also its easy to add an inline filter at the expansion valve and condenser. They sell little cone shaped filters that slip into the connection fittings. Couple bucks each, slip right in.

I bought a mini 2 years ago from a ford dealer. Thank you for this video because now i know what they did to it before they sold it. The pcv valve was replaced probably a few times but needed a valve cover. It caused really rich levels and carboned it up. They must have done the valve cleaner cuz now im dealing with the catalytic converter problems and other oil solenoid problems from junk

The cleaning bit works but man he got the purpose of GDI way, way wrong. 1. GDI does not result in lower cylinder head temperature prior to ignition. Think about it. The furl cools the same amount of air regardless whether it happens in the port or the cylinder. 2. GDI is not required for higher compression. If it was, bikes with 14: and above would use it. They don't. 3. GDI doesn't give "Control over atomisation". Atomisation is more important because there is less time in GDI, but that's a constraint not the purpose. GDI has one purpose, and that is to improve fuel economy by reducing pumping losses by allowing ultra-lean ratios under cruise conditions. That's it. It doesn't make more power - though a GDI engine, being cutting edge, might do regardless - its only to use less fuel. Many early GDI engines actually had both port and direct, and would only use direct under low throttle highway conditions, and switch to port under acceleration - which is why their milage suddenly halved if you put even a small trailer behind. I appreciate what you are do8ng but please don't spread misinformation. You are better than that.
@RepairGeek13 сағат бұрын
With GDI, the fuel is injected as the piston comes up on the compression stroke when the valves are closed. The injection of fuel during compression cools the air in the chamber preventing spark knock.. Port injection systems draw in air AND fuel on the intake stroke. Meaning during compression with port injection, you are compressing the air and the fuel during the full stroke, which give port injection systems a greater potential for knock due to greater heat build up in the air and fuel. Ultra lean ratios lead to excess NOx emissions. Manufactures experimented with "lean burn" carburetors in the early 80s. Also, the lambda data from a GDI vehicle at cruise doesn't support what you're saying either. Anything I just said is easily verifiable with a google search...
@Agouti12 сағат бұрын
@@RepairGeek For context, I'm an engineer. You seem to have a fundamental lack of understanding of these systems. Let me go over the two points you made. 1. Cooling - as I said, the fuel evaporation provides identical cooling whether port of direct injected. If port, the air is cooled prior to entering the cylinder. If direct, while contained inside. It makes (virtually) no difference. 2. Ultra lean ratios. The entire principle of GDI is the formation of a stochiometric pocket of air/fuel in the middle of the cylinder with straight air surrounding it. This means the average across the whole cylinder is ultra-lean, but the portion that burns isn't. There is no extra NOx.

diy/normy here. Just got my '16 forte5 (na) gdi serviced at the dealership. the service basically ran the cleaner from at the fuel filter into the engine for about a 30-40 minute interval from what I could tell but I am not sure on the time. this is the 2nd time I have gotten the service. the first was at the maserati dealership for a different product line for gdi. both times I have noticed a pretty big difference (subjectively of course). I also did some highway driving after both. after the maserati service I did get some smokey blowout. after the kia, none. I did step into the garage during the end of the kia service. the exhaust smelled like plactic death mixed with acetone . lol. also a light amount of white grey smoke. that should have been around the 25-30 minute mark. never did the diy approach bc I wasn't comfortable taking the intake manifold off. spent 250 at kia for 'fuel system service' and 350 at maserati for same
