Ok what the pulley at the very top that’s one that turns then stops

Got the P06DE on mine, just swapped out the sensor and definitely was a PITA!

My auto repair guy says this is makeing my check engine light come on

If you've been getting red paint as soon as you hit the finish with sand paper someone must've done a MAACO job on the car. GM hasn't messed around with single stage finishes in YEARS. (Like since the late 80's) It's a cheap fix for a solid color, but I still prefer a base/clear for everything. Show cars used to get super high gloss with solid colors by sanding between coats with a fine grit to get it flat...then final coats with a finish sand and polish. (That's where the term "color sanding" originated)

Great video my brother. I was stuck in Wendy's parking lot. Ran up the road(literally) to Advanced auto and fixed it. Easy peasy. Thanks

Lmao

Thx a lot

I painted my bumper and fenders 94 Bird

I painted for over 20 years, and have NEVER used a 2.5 tip. A few pointers... 1. Always follow the paint directions. If they said 1:1, that's their formula. 2. Don't spray a hood side to side. Spray front to back, you can reach farther. And always keep a wet edge. 3. Wax and grease remover is not a good idea for plastics. They make an alcohol based solvent for plastic parts. 4. That fender should not show any breakthrough, if you're "ready for paint". You should at least have a sealer of some kind, to make it uniform, and for adhesion. If you were wetsanding your basecoat, then you would have been good to wait for more color...you should lightly recoat after color sanding, anyway. 5. Don't pull/hold the trigger the whole time, let up off the trigger at the end of the panel. 6. Gun setup is important...wide open is not the answer. Pour from the side and back of the gallon...you won't get that "glug, glug" sloshing of the paint/reducer. I don't know what you finish sanded in, but you should not see scratches under the new finish that you "hope clear will cover". Love those cars. Best of luck. If you have any questions on correction feel free to ask.

Update: I just got the paperwork out and with the Advantage model (you get what you pay for) the warranty period is 2 years only. But I did find a place selling new outdoor units, same model as mine, for $230. So I think I'm going to just buy that and try to find an HVAC place that will charge it. I'm in a similar pickle. However, in my case it is a MrCool Advantage, which is similar to the DIY (12K BTU, 220 V), but without the charged line. So it was $400 cheaper 4.5 years ago, but I paid $400 to get it charged by a pro. And I preferred that because they shortened the lines, improved the flares and charged. They were at my house at least 2 hours doing all of it. Two guys. Now, I noticed the past month or so, in N. TX, I was getting intermittent days where the cooling wasn't happening, especially at the westerly heat of the day. And I would do some SC function or power off and on and it would get it going again. Today, 6/22, things went sour. It got real warm and wasn't cooling enough. I tried powering off the breaker for 5 min to the outdoor unit and on again. Still no joy. An hour later I got the EC error. And it powers the system off with that. I tried to do the breaker power off again, it cleared the error, but the temp was still warm, and, an hour later, a second EC. My fear is my HVAC guy for years tells me now they decided, since like a year ago, that they won't work on MrCool anymore and they have a laundry list of ones they will work on. Which is pretty irritating since they originally did the charge. And a second company told me they won't work on mini splits. And of course, it was Saturday, so good luck contacting anyone. I sent a message to MrCool support line and like you, I have the 5 year warranty. But I guess I will have to prove it's bad first. Meanwhile, since it cools a music studio, I had to move 4 guitars out of there into the house to protect them from the heat. I hope I can find someone who will work on it.

Everything is a work in progress. I give you a thumbs up for trying and posting.

My TB trans went out last week and the shop wanted nearly 3k to fix it which I can't afford. I felt hopeless. I got a $600 rebuilt one, watched your video a few times, and had the confidence to do it myself. Took me nearly a week of messing with it when I could, but I got it done and back on the road. Thank you!

Easy from underneath once the starter is removed, starter just takes a couple bolts and a couple nuts for the wires. Then it’s cake 👍

Thanks for the video, nicely done. I'm considering using the same tile in my garage at the Jersey Shore which is not temperature controlled. In your video, I noticed what seems to be a slight gap between tiles. My concern is can water get between the "cracks" and seep under the tiles, especially when mopping the floor? Also, being at the shore, people have sand on their feet. Would sand likely get stuck between the tiles "in the crack" especially when sweeping the tiles clean. I hope you are still monitoring your video as I see it is now 2 years old. How are the tiles holding up? Do they scratch easily?

Enjoyed seeing this repair! I had to replace a taillight on my 94 Formula back in the day. Bought a matching pair on E-bay and sold the extra taillight. I always liked the look of these taillights.

Well done. Going to be doing the same on my 2004 Buick Ranier.

Can this car be fitted with a KITT light bar?

I am really enjoying this Firebird series. These are beautiful cars. It is amazing how expensive these tail lights are on eBay, especially for the 1998-2002 honeycomb ones.

Excellent video!😊

This is a great video, thank you for sharing

Can you show which post it goes On?

This is a great review, thank you. I'm the occasional DIYer, so the overly fancy interface appeals to me 😅

Go under move your starter

Is it a formula or do you just like the formula bumper? Nice job by the way I am currently on a very similar project. 👍

That's a price point that would work for me.

Inverted torx

I bought the D8 but then returned it because I could not justify paying $500 for it. Works okay but the price is too high for a dated Android 8 scanner. I ended up buying the D7 recently for about $277 on TEMU of all places lol. It has android 12 and pretty much does everything the D8 does for almost half the price. I plan on keeping this one because the price seems fair.

I came across the same issue with the tubing on the old compressor to the new. Followed your lead and it worked out great. Thanks for the helpful video.

You may not get a ton of views, but as the owner of a 1998 Firebird and the original owner of a 2002 Formula, I do enjoy and appreciate these videos.

Watch some your video's, I'm doing a 94 Formula front end damage. Parts are getting hard to find. I just primed the hood, bumper and fenders. I only work on mind about 8 to 10 hours a week.

Front should be 1/4 inch lower than back of blade for proper cut and ejection of grass

One other thing distance of those springs should be 11.5 inches end of spring to the other end of spring then make your adjustments

I had to do almost the same thing and was pretty successful. So when you paint Kaylon colonial red is the perfect match painted the entire red of machine looks new is what I have been told doesn’t look like a 16 yr old unit.

Thanks for trying that out!! I have a cracked bumper that should work on.

From underneath

Promo_SM 😄

Thank you

I just did that job. BTW , the socket they sell will not work -better to remove the oil temp sender (will be really tight) and open up a 1” box wrench for the pressure sender (1 ⅙” box/27 mm will slip - why can't they just make standard hex on these things?)

Did you figure it out? I got the same message when i tried to turn it on for the first time this season. Third year with it. Has worked great until now. Blowing air but not cooling

You are an absolute life saver. Thank you so much!

That was some good final thoughts. Good luck with your procedure, hope you recover quickly!

You can write off your electricity for your business cant you?

What a stupid set up! 🙄 The could have made it out of metal and it would have lasted as long as the vehicle!

I have the same issue. Did u ever get it working?

Did you have any DIC? scan for codes?

How’d you get the transmission under the truck on the transmission jack?

I, for one, appreciate the talking. You convinced me to to take the Jeep to a mechanic. I lack grace and dexterity so I absolutely will not be able to get my ham hock hands in these spots and get this done. Thank you for this video.

Sitting here watching the show and just looking like a Cheshire cat. No one in our shop does body work anymore. The supervisor farms it out because we all hate doing it. Great video you really have an awesome attitude at trying new stuff and then throwing it out on the tube. Happy I found your channel.

Perfect! It's exactly what was wrong! Thank you!

Had a senior get stuck at underground parking lot entrance due to this exact reason. Thanks for the vid for quick fix. These types videos mean a lot to folks that can google it up for quick for vs full tow cost. Appreciate it.
