    You should edit this with a warning to most viewers who DO have automatics that their setup is completely different than your 6-speed manual starter location.

    The white "stuff" collecting around your hose fittings are typically solids like calcium and magnesium from water in your cooling system. Theoretically, if you NEVER put any "coolant/antifreeze" in your radiator with any kind of phosphates, and you NEVER put any water in your radiator other than distilled water, you will avoid any of this "scale" build up. Antifreeze, or "coolant" that you usually purchase has a percentage of ethylene glycol and water (a 50/50 solution is typical and means you DON'T need to add any water). You need certain properties of the ethylene glycol to lubricate engine parts such as your water pump, and you need/want water because it has much better heat transfer (that is why you will typically see a 50/50 mix of the two). In REALLY cold environments, you may need more "antifreeze" to keep the water in your cooling system to keep from freezing. In warm to hot environments (I'm in Phoenix) where it doesn't freeze at night, you don't really need the "antifreeze" to keep from freezing. So what's the best "rule" you can get from me? You can usually trust a local auto parts place to recommend the proper "coolant" for your car. However, it's your car, and I would personally do some research to verify whatever you put into your coolant system. BUT, ALWAYS make sure you NEVER add anything but distilled water to your coolant system in your car to avoid minerals that typically cause the problem you are seeing. BTW, that "stuff" generally hardens rubber hoses, corrodes metals, like aluminum and iron at the fittings and worse inside the engine, and reduces heat transfer especially in your engine and radiator (where it matters most).

    I have a 2002 Maxima with starter issues and my starter is in a completely different location. It's buried in the engine. Mine happens to be automatic however. Are you sure this is an '02? Also, is this a 3.5L?

    • @link375
      @link375  Před 8 lety +2

      Yes, this is a 6 speed manual though, not an automatic this is one of those repairs where you have an advantage with standard transmissions. Yours is probably something more like this: czcams.com/video/q8n9OZfwKrM/video.html

    STARTER MOUNTING BOLTS ARE 14MM (not 9/16 ) . EVERY NUT AND BOLT ON THIS AND EVERY OTHER VEHICLE MADE AFTER 1975 IS METRIC.. SOME SAE SIZES ARE SIMULAR , BUT CAN CAUSE SEVERE STIPPING OF NUTS AND BOLTS .. JUST FYI .. THANKS LINK375

    • @Route1Reels
      @Route1Reels Před 4 lety

      I was gonna say the same thing. 9/16" is like 14.3mm so a little larger. I worked as a master mechanic for years and most cars are metric, even American ones. It's just much easier to deal with.

  • @sportsmansparadice42

    Hey is that an manual transmission or Auto? The substance in the water neck is mineral deposits from the water with in the coolant. Porsche recommends distilled water only with their coolant.
