    I just want to start by saying great video and you guys put out some quality content.
    Due to yourself and a couple other content creators, I’ve recently decided to give this automotive content creation a go - with my old blue JB43 taking centre stage. I was wondering if you might have some tips on what might get my content out there?
    Again, keep up the great work and thanks for taking the time to read my comment 👍

      Thanks for the feedback! Try to be consistent in releasing content regularly. This helps with the algorithm and attracts more people to your channel. Over time, you will see which videos do well and you can then focus on that type of content. But most of all, have fun with it!

    greetings from Italy Florence I on my Suzuki Jimny 4x4 petrol 1.3 with m13a engine year 2001 I did the engine oil change in 2021 with Liqui Moly leichtlauf performance 10w40 a good product and in 2022 I did the oil change of 12,000 km it took the ceratec additive and as engine oil I put the liqui moly leichtlauf mos2 10w40 also a good lubricant and then I use the Liqui moly additives to clean the petrol injection system and the valves!

      Hi Luca, we've been using 5W-30 fully synthetic engine oil in the Jimny M13A. We used Nulon brand in the video shown, but also quite often use Castrol Edge in our vehicles.

    Hi thanks I will replace spark plugs soon. is 25 nm the right torque spec to tighten? Also, will you show how to replace transmission oil?

    • @2ndGearLow
      @2ndGearLow  Před 9 měsíci

      Hi, thanks for watching. The Factory Service Manual (FSM) for our Suzuki Jimny JB43 shown states that the tightening torque for the spark plugs is 18 lb-ft (25 Nm). Our Jimny is automatic, and the automatic transmission fluid drain and fill will be included in a future video in this series!

    • @2ndGearLow
      @2ndGearLow  Před 2 měsíci

      Hi mate, to find parts for your engine we would recommend entering your Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) into Partsouq.com.
      At that site you can see exploded diagrams of the engine (and many other parts of the vehicle), including seeing the OEM part numbers for each part.
      We use it all the time for working on cars and it's a great resource

      @2ndGearLow  Před rokem

      Hi Luke, thanks for watching! Fortunately no other signs of a blown head gasket as yet (e.g. overheating, milky oil from coolant mixing, or blowing white smoke) so we're thinking at this stage that it's just rust mixing with condensation in the exhaust.
