Great video. Any idea where I can get a new spring?

Dude, you are a lifesaver. I recently drained my inground, 25,000 gallon pool to clean it. Then I saw these fear-mongering videos from pool KZfaqrs and about pools popping up from HSP and have been scrambling to find the right tool since the plug is tightly closed and I can’t get it with a normal wrench or channel lock. So I’ve been Running back and forth Lowe’s Home Depot Leslie’s Harbor Freight nothing. Then I saw your video and went back to Lowe’s. Got the piece you used, opened the plug in 2 seconds, and just as suspected there was ZERO hydrostatic pressure under my pool but at least I can sleep now. We did have heavy rains here in East Texas so I didn’t want tot take any chances because I cannot afford to replace my pool.

What if the driver side is hot and the passenger side is cold?

How do you take the white piece off that covers the actuator?

I had the same problem where one of the springs snapped. However it snapped only a few coils in and I managed to bend the larger left over bit and created a working spring that's just a bit narrower but works fine with plenty of spring. I've saved $50 on a new spring.

They sell the tool just for that, it’s great, it has a wider edge so you can apply more force if need be and not damage the piece👍

Do you know the size of the bolts I’d need?

Thanks so much for posting the video! I just did this on my GTX and having that torx size in advance really helped out.

Great detailed video! I’m about to help my cousin replace the mode selector servo on his 2010 RX350. Does it look like the mode selector servo can be replaced without pulling the dash? It looks like the mode selector is right above the temp servo shown in your video.

@Steve K where did you get your part from?

Great vid!👍🏻My prob is on driver side. Considering all the trouble involved, I may skip and giv to my mech. Will hope it’s just a gear thang and go frm there. 😅

If a leave a little water enough to cover the drain… do I still need to remove the drain plug? Am I still at risk of pool popping out?

Are you doing this so the pool doesn’t pop out?

Hello, your video was very informative. I live in Florida too. I'm about to start that project myself, I already removed the tiles and the grout. But I have an issue with water keep coming up through the drain. I think I might have a solution, first I can't seem to close off the drain enough there is always water coming. My idea is I'm putting a reducer in the drain from a 2" threaded side to a 2" slip joint so I can glue a 2 foot pipe. This should stop the small leak around the drain ( I can't get all the sand out from the treads so it leaks) it should stop the leak at the drain, and with the top uncapped the water should come up the pipe, that should relive the water pressure trapped below the pool. I can use a type of bilge pump that can suck the water coming from the pipe so it won't overflow!!! I'd like to know what people think about this??? If you can keep the bowl of the pool dry, then you won't have a difference of discoloration. About the hydraulic cement drying fast is in Florida the water is warm, so if the don't so much to do. But gallons of water in the REFRIGERATOR, that willslow down the drying time, I've done it before.

That piece you broke. I used a pick to pry the top tab up and the bottom tab down while pulling on the piece gently. Then used a pick to pry the clip on the side over its peg and it just slipped off. Takes about 15 seconds.

Thank you Sir, my wife has a 2013 Nissan Juke with 114,000 miles on it, I had replaced the Mass Air Flow sensor last year dued to a P0101 code, and I noticed the the oil consumption is more that ever before with no leaks, so when research the issue, the PCV valve was apart of a possible problem, and I know for sure that it the original factory one. But after changing the MAF sensor last year with a OEM Nissan part, the code came back on recently. Looking at one of your comments, the person said by changing the PCV valve it clear his P0101 code, so I hope that the case for my wife's car. 👍🏽👍🏽

You can use a little hook tool to pull lower tab down. I'm a girl and it worked for me.

I was curious to know how the product is holding up so far. I'm considering using this product but there is not much info on the internet to do a research. Thanks!

Your awesome

Camera person sounds so sweet , let her talk 2

my heater doesn't work but cooling works fine. Would that be a bad blend door actuator?

Thank you Soo much!!! Fixed my P0101 issue on my 2013 Nissan Juke.

Thank you

Do you have the part numbers for the motor replacements?

Having the same problem with mine. Gear is not aligned. I was thinking about cutting mine. Did you not cut yours?

Thanks Steve having same issue with my 2013 highlander. Having trouble pulling whole assembly out though love to see how you re installed it

This has to be my issue as well was it hard to align them all up any tips

Good stuff sir! I have run into this as a mechanic many times. The usual cause is that the foam seal around the damper door gets wet and then freezes shut. Then the owner changes the temp control and the actuator twists the cam off the pins and or strips the gearset within the actuator.

how long did this take you ..start to finish ?

This guy's an idiot. Going around with an f'n screwdriver. WTF. Total amateur. And by the way, Cementall is not hydraulic cement like he says around 6:51.

Hey Steve I agree great video! Have a question about work time of the product. Did you have help doing this and once a batch is mixed how long was it workable? How much water was added to make it thinner? Thanks

They must be reaching that age where this is becoming a problem. Thanks for the video, I just repaired mine tonight.

Steve, great video. what do you need to retie? thin set mortar? or some kind of tile grout for pool? thanks.

Good idea!!!

can u help me ? my juke has oil on the tube of intake , changing this valve can be the solution ?

I'm getting ready to order this for my pool. Are you still happy with it??? An what did you use for the hollow spots on bottom of pool???

is it possible to blend the repair so its not visible?

Sooooo what happens when you use the T30 and the bolts spin, but don’t come out? I’ve never removed the step before and just had my 1st issue with the step not retracting. Any help is appreciated. This is happening on both sides with all 6 bolts.

Which color is that? Ocean Cove?

👍🏼 thanks for the video and part number. I have the same problem.

Any update on how the pool is doing since you’ve posted this? Thinking about going this route myself. Thanks

Just saw your video. Great job. Wondering why you used cider crete plaster? Did you consider epoxy paint? How is the plaster holding up? Thanks Dan

Link for the barre plz

How much did the project cost you? Do you have a general breakdown?

Cool vid. How old was this pool when you did this?

hello Steve! I’m in Florida and I’m very handy guy. Did you ever have any fears of the pool popping out of the ground. I saw you in the video taking out the plug in the main drain. How long did the project take thanks Steve.

Thanks for the video

Did you use a bond coat before applying the plaster?

Very cool and informative!. Saving this video for future reference when I build enough courage to do this myself. Thank you!
