2007 nissan murano altenator problem solved
มุมมอง 1755 ปีที่แล้ว
Coolant leaks onto brand new altenator fro thermostat housing.
Is there's an adjuster on this car?
I’ve got one with a broke guide on top not sure what else but it runs great only rattles for maybe a minute at first start up could I possibly just replace the tensioner and other piece and maybe make it last a little longer? Can’t really afford a complete timing chain replacement right now and car runs great but haven’t drove it since I realized parts were broken.
Actually show what wire goes where. You didn't point to anything or explain the relay. Useless video !!

Thank you. This made it very easy to understand.
So the only way to install the stretch belt with this method is by pulling the motor out cool bout to fxckin go off an engineer at this point I’ve tried using the tool and it stretches the belt so much that it literally stretched until it snapped and the belt broke so explain to me the science behind this and the ziptie method cause I have tried both and nothing is working

Try doing it with it in its ❤real state ❤❤❤❤buddy ❤❤❤❤❤use zip ties 😅❤
I gave you a thumbs down because you don’t explain what you’re doing and it be a lot better if you learnt how to talk thank you
can you give me the measurement of the band
So step one is to remove the engine?
Not the hero we deserved, but the hero we need
Thanks for the tip!
No problem!
What was the symptom that led up to this find? Cranks, starts & dies?
Chattering noise from passenger side of motor and running poorly, misfires and stalling.
Tell people why we use a bottle cause people are not doing it the right way and leading other into it. We use the bittl sonit doesn't suck air back in. The videos that don't work and half way say and do they have so many view. Those are all the people you have to stay away from on the roads.
My old man said thank you for that and he would’ve never gotten it on without that trick!!!! Thank you!!!!
Thankssss
Have the same issue, buut neither the chain nor tensioner is bad. It does sound like maybe could be broke at the bottom
Can u make a video show a more precise way of how you wired the relay yourself having the same issue myself and
i saw a video yesterday a mechanic didn't work as hard , . . . he cut the metal tubes close to the core exit and took it off ! ! joint them with rubber and clamps , looks ok to me ?
So just replace the tensioner?
You could as long as the guides haven't broken off as the top of this one had.
I just did the chain and guides. You need to remove the oil pan and clean the debris out of the intake pipe and sceen. I also replaced the oil pump. My engine runs well after the replacment parts but has a tick on the drivers side. It also has bouts of ignition symptoms and wants to run rough at idle.
Definitely don't need special tool.. I just did my 2008 T-Rex belt this way except used two zip ties (black probably 1/4" wide), one through one hole, one through another then just turned the crank, belt popped right on and then I just snipped the zip ties off with side cutters and was done.. No damage to the belt and it worked Great !! 👍
Smart
About to do my 2008 T-Rex belts and hadn't thought of this.. I'm going to try to simplify it one step further and instead of fumbling around with a hose clamp why not just zip tie it ?? It will conform to the pulley even better and then just snip it off I'm thinking.. Well ill know in a little while..🤔
The zip ties break easily...trust me...I broke about 7 of them trying to get this belt on
@@sidneyvines7689 Huh... Must have been tiny zip ties.. I ended up using two zip ties (black probably 1/4" wide), then just turned the crank, belt popped right on and then I just snipped the zip ties off with side cutters and was done.. No damage to the belt and it worked great for me.. 👍 Just curious what color were the Zip Ties ?? I saw on "RoadKill" (the zip tie kings lol) one time during there Zip Tie moment, he said always use black zip ties then saying for some reason any other colors don't seem as strong.. So curious if there's truth to that ??
Now do it with the engine in the car
I have
Where's that video?
Dear lord it's a nightmare
If you need more clearance take the motor mount off and keep a jack with a piece of wood on the oil pan and lower the engine very gently and you’ll have more clearance but you shouldn’t need to do that anyway
@@mechanicmikevaal not with this method you haven't.
@Mechanic Mike Vaal I'm dealing with the same situation on a 2005 Chevy classic 2.2 l engine.
Are you turning the main drive pulley with the ratchet/socket wrench or how are you turning it
Turning the crank with a ratchet and socket
@@mechanicmikevaal 👍
@@mechanicmikevaalI am working on hhr same exact thing. How can I ensure timing is correct with new tensioner and guide installed
Dude. Thanks. Engine in vehicle. Installed the clamp going c-clock so's i could get it off on the rotate to the bottom rather than the top. Worked slicker n shit...✌️
Glad to help. Yea I thought it was pretty slick too when I did it so easily so I thought I just have to make a video and let everyone know how easy it really is.
Why was this engine out of the vehicle? Confused as to how this helps unless you really only can do this with the engine pulled
Was an engine and accessories swap but either way you should have enough room to do this with engine installed
Thanks bo.. This helped a bunch Nice and quick......... Seen ur hand (palm) was Band-Aid up.. Hopes everything heals..good..... Thanks 4 hard work
Was it the y pipe behind the water pump
