    You have no idea how much we appreciate you showing your audience that stuff breaks regularly. So many CZcams car channels edit out all of the brittle plastic, torn rubber, and broken wire connectors. So then when a novice starts to work on a car they become discouraged and feel like they’re doing something wrong when everything is brittle and falls apart like broken glass. Thank you very much for being real and honest.

  • @djmtndew
    @djmtndew Před 2 lety +26

    I like to use dielectric grease or silicone lube on any electrical connectors. It makes them easier to service and
    Keeps moisture out of the connector between services or sensor replacement whatever you have going on. Also, I find that because you have lubed your connections- things break less often especially with mid 90s to early 2010s German/euro cars and their wiring

    Just wanted to give some advise from my long experience in motorsports and using o-ring cord. Most areas that don't see too much pressure, if the cord is cut to proper length already, you can take the 2 butt ends and superglue them together, however your method of using RTV in the ring groove is perfectly acceptable (only main difference is I would have the start/end section somewhere along a long straight section versus butting together in a corner). I also like to use a little dressing or sealant in the groove area to help hold the cord in its groove for installation. Typically I've used Molykote 111 for areas that won't see a lot of fuel, and Permatex 85420 for areas that would get a lot of fuel wash (i.e. large volume intake plenums with secondary fuel injection). Otherwise love the content and keep it going! Also wanted to mention I loved the water ingestion for carbon cleaning. It gave some very significant proof on water/steam efficacy on cleaning carbon buildup in the combustion chamber.

    Your videos and channel in general are fantastic. Love the passion and variety of the vehicles and your easy going personality. Top notch.
