INTERCOOLER PIPE INSTALL | FRONTIER - NAVARA - PATHFINDER 2ndGen #nissanfrontier #nissannavara #4x4
Hi everyone, in this episode I'll talk you through the intercooler pipe upgrade for my Navara D40 and give my review.
If you've been having issues with the stock hose on your hot side expanding or ballooning, then this video may be helpful to you.
My intercooler hose was on its way out, and effecting lag in low gear!
The solid pipe by Plasmaman has been a decent improvement, with response in low gear, and obviously no more worries with it blowing and causing other issues!

PRO WINDOW CLEANING TECHNIQUES - Fast & Efficient Window Washing with Swivel Adapter #windowcleaning

In this episode, I show my fast and efficient techniques. These glazed doors were a first time clean, but only dusty, so I'm just using pure water. I really recommend using a swivel adapter on your brush head, this is a game changer, that allows you to move a lot faster over the frames and glass. Hit the frames first then glass in sections.

Hiw much pure water dogou get from one bag of resin? Great work
@@mylesstreeton48 it’s difficult to say as I only use the hydropower occasionally. But personally if the ppm is around 100-150 from the tap, and I use Tulsions I can get 8 to 10 big house jobs done before the ppm hits 5 on monitor.
Nice job
in dieser Zeit hab ich die Fenster mit Einwascher/Anzieher 4x gereinigt 😣
Smooth skills man
😎
Nice work bro!
What is the pad attachment on the pole? I am trying to find one for my wfp
@@brianlucas3187 it’s something I’ve built myself, as there wasn’t anything on the market quite like it.
Great install video!…have you thought of adding a catch can for any residual oil in intercooler?
@@JonHajeski thanks Jon! A catch can is definitely on the to do list, it’ll save all the cleaning 😅
Wfp for the win! 💪🏼
My god mate. If we worked like this with a wfp, we'd be broke as hell. Get a better, more efficient brush & that window is top to bottom clean in 25 seconds. I'm baffled by this video. How can you say this is practical?
@@joshhaynes2363 it’s a question of what you charge for that kind of cleaning? 😜
@The4x4WindowCleaner I charge by the job, not how long it takes mate & what I might do in 1hr, someone less equipped or less experienced might do in 2hrs, but we'd charge the same cos it's still the same job. No disrespect intended at all mate, I just think that's wasting a whole lot of time to get the exact same result I'd get in 1/4 the time.. 🤔
@@joshhaynes2363 that’s what’s great about being your own boss! You make the rules, and if someone doesn’t like them, you move on to someone who does. All the best bud
@The4x4WindowCleaner That's it! All the best to you mate!
Is the cleaner you use a neutral cleaner or degreaser? I’m looking for something like that in the USA, but can’t find.
Hey @@brandonevans174 the data sheet describes it as “alkaline cleaner and degreaser” which is “concentrated”. Sorry it can’t be found in US, but you should find an alternative cleaner/degreaser brand.
@@The4x4WindowCleaner thank you
@@brandonevans174 no worries 🫡
🎉🎉🎉Great work buddy 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Thanks @@Goldschmutz-academy appreciate your feedback! Unger make brilliant equipment!
😎
Safety way to go
Thanks mate ! May God bless you
Great technique bro
Nice simple technique 👌
Made quick work of that. We’ve started out using swivel neck and it does help.
Thanks @@PureViewWindowCleaning totally agree with you.
Like the ninja series, well done for figuring this combo 👌
Thanks! 👍
Clever mod, suppose could be applied to different washers 👍
Great video and helpful method in tackling skylights.
Helpful video for those starting out wfp. New sub 👍
Thanks very much for commenting and supporting the channel 🫡
Helpful information thanks
Thanks PureView 😎
Nice work man. Good music choice 👌
Thank you, much appreciated!
Makes windows like this easier with water fed pole 👍
Brilliant use of Yakima clamps. New sub
@@PureViewWindowCleaning Thank you for supporting the channel, and commenting 🫡
Thanks for this…just a quick question…do you need to lock with key to secure poles?
No problem, so the Yakima TopGrips act like a handcuff that “lock” down as you push the clamp. There’s also a padded cradle for extra grip. This is secure enough for transporting poles. The actual key locks would be used to prevent gear theft. Hope this helps! Thanks
Thanks for explaining, that’s really great. Cool idea
Hit the griddy when you hit the bars
Resourceful setup for when space is limited. Nice work bro…is that a bedliner on the truck topper?
Appreciate your positive comment FrontierOutdoors! The camper is in Upol Raptor very tough for work and play. Thanks
@@The4x4WindowCleaner Raptor liner is great stuff, looks good.
Great way of securing it and very informative. Thanks for sharing your ideas!
Thanks Max, glad it’s been helpful!
Great video. Very useful
Wet brushes and gear in the back of the truck can be a real pain! Nice job on your new setup, and dual purpose as well!!
Thanks for your comment SparkleGlass! I try my best to keep the inside of the camper as clean as poss, knowing I use the space for camping outdoor adventures. Be good to store water or fuel Jerrys to the mount now 👍
Very cool idea.
Thank you! Cheers!
I admire your pride of workmanship,interesting to see a different method from mine. Personally for first cleans I sometimes use a drizzle of washing up liquid directly on the brush and find that more than good enough for glass and frames nearly every time.Occasionally I use upvc cream cleaner on frames but careful on glass as it’s potentially abrasive.Thereafter just pure water paying particular attention to rinsing edges. Over time I’ve learned the importance of cleaning the frames often especially above the window as this minimises run down,sometimes I rinse back over as necessary. I observe other window cleaners don’t bother at all with any of this and when the windows have dried they’re often covered in run down dirt! I can’t work like that,it has to be done right.
Thanks, no problem! CZcams.com/@Tucker_USA make some great brushes
Nice work on the snorkel 👌 I’ve seen some failed installs from lack of guide and inexperience! Perhaps something like a Safari would have been better for connecting pipework!?
Appreciate your comment mate! You definitely get that “here goes nothing” moment when drilling, even after all the preliminary research and checks. Before buying this snorkel, I did carefully compare all parts to the Safari model, and the only difference I could see was the branding. Same ram head/water separator and exactly same connective pipes. As mentioned in video, essentially the same but a lot cheaper.
Smooth setup you have there 👌
That’s a great idea bro
Very cool
I’ve just bought my first backpack and pole kit to use with smart water, can you advise what cleaners I need please.
That’s how I got going with wfp 👍 I’d recommend ordering degreasers from a professional cleaning suppliers. In the UK I mostly use UBIK 2000, but any decent degreasing chemical will do. I’ll occasionally use a diluted dish soap. Also CLR remover is a must for hard water stains(charge more for that kind of situation) All the best @sueb8678 🫡
@@The4x4WindowCleaner thank you, what would I need for stubborn dirt and some yellowing on white upvc
Hi @@sueb8678 yellowing upvc can be uv/sunlight damage that effects that top layer, so difficulty to improve. Id only recommend using Stardrops The Pink Stuff paste or Unger Rub Out remover, these will also work with stubborn dirt. Don’t be tempted to use anything stronger. I had a customer once who put bleach on white frames and it didn’t end well!! I’ve also seen a lot of upvc sanded to remover stains, but wreaks the top finish layer!! Hope this helps 🫡
@@The4x4WindowCleaner thank you, I defiantly think it’s a build up of dirt as it’s only along the bottom edge.
@@sueb8678 that’s good news, you’ll definitely have a chance of brightening it up with those removers. Let me know how it goes!
So the snorkel does improve gas mileage??
Thanks for your comment Jon! I can definitely say there’s been a few mpg gained since the install. The tests also show a snorkel will improve engine induction/breathing so should reduce fuel consumption.
Great video. Thanks for sharing
Cheers! New Sub!
@@BTP40 BIG THANKS Bling The Pane Window Cleaning 🫡
Great video! Very informative and helpful. Thanks for sharing
@@MaxAnderson-x1t BIG thanks Max, glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for your Sub also! 🫡
Looks good, and relatively cheap to put together. Will test it out. Thanks
Will give this a go, looks like you could combine a number of channels to handle no problems. Thanks
Thanks for the review on the tucker brush 👍
Great simple setup on your truck. I’m sure the power in topper is right useful!?!
@@MattPeters-t7v Thanks, glad you like it! It works great for my simple needs. If you tour and camp like I do then I’d recommend a solar install 👌
Fantastic job on your viper cut! Nice wheel and tyre setup by the way, are wheels Nissan? Thanks again for sharing!
@@MattPeters-t7v Appreciate your comment Matt and also your Sub, thank you 😁 Yes wheels are original stock, which I sprayed black and 2K satin lacquered. Also hand-painted Nissan logo centre cap in red.
Please tell me what you are using to Shut off the Water & turn back on. And does it work with any Pole? What Pole are you using by the way?
Great video buddy . Have you a link to your hedgehog mop please and what chemicals you use ? Thanks
@@yorkshirehumbergroundsmain9536 Thanks for your kind comment! It’s a little cheaper to buy mop direct maykker.com/products/hedgehog-washer-sleeve If you see my other content, there’s a how to modify to fit any pole! For chemicals on glass and framework I mostly use Ubik 2000, Viro-sol, and a CLR for water stains etc 👍
@@The4x4WindowCleaner brilliant thanks mate . Something I am venturing into . Will look at your other videos 🙏 Thanks for the reply
@@yorkshirehumbergroundsmain9536 No worries buddy, and wish you all the best with your business! Feel free to Sub, as there will be more helpful content on the way 😎
@@Damster587 Sure thing, I control water using the uni-valve by Exceed Innovation, they’re based in UK but I believe can be shipped. The valve controller will fit inside the majority of WFP’s. The pole I’m using is by Gardiner Pole Systems another UK company. Much thanks for your Sub 🙂
