Ill be waiting💯

@@fatfighter.325 for sure!

Hey, guess what? The filter wasn't top mounted was it?! Also, I guess you missed the edit part where I let it sit for 20 minutes to drain! Plenty of time for the pickup tube to drain, hence the slight drip out of the drain plug! I stated to let it go until a slight drip! Let's say your idea of the pickup tube staying full of oil happens (which it doesn't of course), how much oil do you think it holds? Are you one of those people who think a tenth of a quart spilled on the ground is a gallon? Seems to be! Do a test the next time you pull a pickup tube off of an engine (if you do that type of work at all), plug one side of the pickup and fill and drain it until the quart is gone. It holds maybe 1/20th of a quart! Nothing in the grand scheme of things, not even close! What else do you have oh' keyboard warrior of immense techness? Seriously....Dude!

Two rotations of the crank pulley, so the balancer mark passes by the pointer the first time.

These older box's need to see a ground feedback from the solenoid when they are not activated. You are better off getting a digital retard as they do not need that. You can get creative with a relay that will revert back to ground when not activated, I've done that with an NOS mini and an old 7AL3 box. You have to be careful with these because if they do not have that ground feedback it will change your timing setting by whatever chip is in it, it's been awhile and I can't remember if it adds the chip amount or subtracts it. I think it adds it if I remember correctly.

it's called a copper crush washer

This 2.4 bolt has it's own hard plastic washer attached to the bolt. I'm not sure if a crush washer goes along with it, (every car I've ever had has had a crush washer, but this bolt does look different than most) been changing my Oil on the 500x since 45k miles and it never had an additional washer.. I've never had even the slightest of leaks yet.. and is super secure at every change.

You replied to a comment 2 years ols. I'm pretty sure they managed to get it sorted by now 😂

@@dannyg5158 Dude, stop! Go find someone else to play with! Your hackness is not needed anywhere at all whatsoever! Go away!

Yes they actually did. On the 2017 Fiat 500X lounge model. It's worse.

I've been using this site for awhile now. These are really good relays. 40/60 amp. www.qualitymobilevideo.com/5083.html

I do not.

Because that's going to to do a damn thing to it, right?!!!!

And your ability to project into my body and feel exactly how hard I'm hitting it, right?!!!

Great idea! I'm not sure why I did not think of that! PS: I have super immunity to allergies! They don't affect me in any way whatsoever!

LMAO!!! I know it counts like crazy when I mow the lawn on the riding mower. I'll check the steps next time. Probably a lot!

Maybe you missed the part where I said that they all don't come out this easy in the beginning of the video!

@@fastcars1173 Yep, prob'ly.

You are very welcome!

On our next trip!

I use a MAC long throw for everything. I've used short throws as well before and they worked too. Some of the heavier barreled bushings may need the long throw though.

Thanks for the input

@@jesusibaibarriaga2645 No problem.

Yes. On these analog units it needs to see a ground feedback through the coil to essentially "turn off" the retard. Digital box's do not need this ground feedback. On these you need to ground any stages that are not used. I like to ground them and also insert a 0 chip. I check the retard with them by removing the coil from the solenoid housing by just removing the center nut and laying the coil to the side in order to keep them connected, with the digital box you can just unplug the connection.

@@fastcars1173 ok so i can bridge the first stage activation wire with the positive wire on the fuel and nos solenoids. when you say ground the other 2 stages, do you mean like what you do with an earthing out wire? also i run a msd 6al with rev limiter built in ,msd start/retard 3 stage control box, msd pro billet distributor locked out at 34 dgrees, electric fuel pumps for fuel cell to feed carby and another electric pump to feed the fuel solenoid on the nos system. i dont have a msd window switch and was thinking of running a bang button inbetween the micro switch and relay to ensure i get to desired rpm range before activating the nos systemas well as to close the circuit when i reached the desired high rpm range. is there any other pointers or parts you think i might require for my setup? sorry i'm new to the Nos system area

This car is so much much fun! 632-1150 on motor.

Happy to be of assistance to you! Happy oil changes from here on!

I realize I'm kind of off topic but does anybody know a good website to stream new movies online?

@Braden Emmanuel Flixportal :P

@Tanner Marley thanks, I went there and it seems like they got a lot of movies there :) I really appreciate it!!

@Braden Emmanuel You are welcome =)

Except I made a 30 min video explaining everything with some extra's! Hmmm! Even helped some first timers do it (as stated in another comment) with success! But yeah, maybe you just didn't like how I spoke!

I like how you give a comprehensive how to method, pointing out certain things to avoid.

You provide a good video for first timers or DIYers but you have your process wrong. Run engine to heat oil, some people use Forte oil flush to thin the oil (same effect as using diesel as a pre change additive), filler cap off and dipstick pulled and car lifted etc. The only issue innyour process is that you put the sump plug in before you take the oil filter off. Everytime no matter what car is on the ramp, when i remove a filter there is always extra oil . Try it, drain a sump until it is only deipping and then remove a top mounted oil filter and see how much oil then comes out. Leaving the sump plug out also means you can clean thw oil filter housing with break cleaner to get all the sediment and and crap put of the system. Even crak mounted oil filters will back flow oil into the sump.

@@dannyg5158 Initial commenter from 3 years ago, I apologize for having to reply to this Lubie Noobie under your comment. So, DannyG is it?! Where do I start? Yes, warming the oil is great but not entirely necessary, especially in Southern climates and the thin viscosity of oils that modern engines use. An old SBC with 20/50, yes! This Fiat is not that though, is it?! I'll give you a check on that one. Oil flush? On an engine that has seen little maintenance over the years? NO!!!!! Work out a more frequent oil service interval with the customer if he/she wants to. Oil flush is terrible for an engine, PERIOD!!!!!! Hopefully you will not learn that the hard way in your career! Sludge buildup, to a point, is best left alone again merely suggesting more frequent oil services! At a certain point of sludge content the engine will need removal, thorough cleaning and rebuilding. A simple fact! I explained the whole pickup tube "with oil still in it" under your other comment. Everyone please reference that. If you worked for me and I saw you spraying brake cleaner into an oil filter housing I would warn you once and fire you on the spot if I saw you doing it again! As far as wiping out a cartridge filter housing (which this vehicle doesn't have one), use a rag to wipe it clean. All that is needed! If I did another video on my 2007 Lexus IS250, you would see that in the video, this video we are replying to is not that type, it does not have that style of filter! When you are doing a "Quick Lube" oil change in ten minutes, yes a little oil will stay in the pickup tube and pump, not even remotely enough to affect anything at all whatsoever!

@fastcars1173 nope you're dead wrong
