  • Sugar in the gas tank? Rust in your fuel lines? Clogged fuel injectors? Fill your car with diesel instead of gas? In this video I show you how to clean out the entire fuel system from how to clean the fuel tank, change the fuel pump, how to change the fuel filter, how to flush the fuel lines to how to clean the fuel injectors. So if you contaminated your fuel system, after watching this video you will be able to clean it out and get your car or truck running again!
    In this case I bought a car that was vandalized and was totaled because someone spray painted the car, keyed the car, and put sugar in the gas tank. Since it was damaged, I got the car for 1/3 of what it is worth fixed up and I am showing you guys how to fix it on a budget to make it a perfectly good running car!

    Former Nissan employee here. You know...the guys in the service department actually brought up that one more than one occasion they've lost business due to people saying, "I'll just ChrisFix it." You've really made an impact on many people's lives including my own. Even as an employee at a car dealership, I handled all of my own service through watching your channel and saved a grand total of 3166.25. Yes I calculated it every time. Thank you, buddy.

    @theodoreclay2213 Před rokem +28

    Quick tip:
    To prime the fuel pump on a push start, push the start button twice without your foot on the brake pedal. This will put it in the Run position without starting the ignition and will activate the fuel pump. You also have to put the ignition in the Run position without the engine running in order to reset your oil life on these 2.4l 200’s. Obviously it still started, so no big deal. But if the battery was weak enough, the starter cranking while the fuel system was priming itself could have killed the battery before the engine finally started

      lol yeah, but the reason being is mechanics will take the easy route if they can, which includes just replacing everything. So instead of doing all the cleaning, he's going to rip out the fuel line, the tank, injectors, fill hose and just replace them with new parts. Certainly effective, but hardly the most practical or economical method. It pays to have some car repair knowledge. I've been working on my own vehicles for 18 years and have done everything from oil changes to engine/transmission rebuilds. Can't imagine how much money I would've had to pay for all the stuff I've done, I've easily saved tens of thousands throughout the years I'm sure.

      ​@@jw11432 So as a mechanic i can say, atleast in my country replacing something is alot cheaper than fixing it. Reason being that just the work (time spent on working on the car) that i, the mechanic do, costs alot of money. Now obviously replacing something is done way quicker than fixing the same part so with parts being relatively cheap it's cheaper to replace it. Also we are under alot of stress because we have alot of other customers. Again, replaing something takes less time, meaning theres more time for other customers.

In these transitions, your voice is a constant stream of words, but the images combine excerpts of previous shot sequences. This is not criticism, but comment on good production technique, and your audience / viewers evidently appreciate the effort. BTW--
