No not in this case per the owners manual. I always follow the "recommended fluids and lubricants" section in the owners manual.

​@@many-points Right, same here. Looks like I have a 3.92 Trac Lok, so I ordered a friction modifier. Mobil 1's gear oil claims to have the modifier added, but I'll still add the modifier. Better safe than sorry. Thanks.

Needs to be plugged in. The GB70 can be used anywhere: th-cam.com/video/kfN2SpmpK1k/w-d-xo.htmlsi=h0hjH-OD58foH82I

Perhaps, but I think all you will hear is at click when the sensor opens the valve. The sprinkler head wont move at all because it requires water to operate. I tested it out using my children, they love playing in the sprinklers anyways. 🤣

Might be worth driving it a few ignition cycles (on drive, off) first to see if the cruise starts working again before replace the cruise control one. That was my experience - for some reason it took a couple of ignition cycles for the truck to figure out everything was fixed and for the cruise to start reengaging. Glad I could help. I posted the video because at the time there wasn't any good info I could find on it so I hoped it could help others.

@@many-points So believe it or not my cruise engaged after work tonight! Not sure what the issue was because I only replaced the brake switch, but you might be onto something with the few ignition cycles. Thanks again!

@@stargate-eu8fd Awesome, no problem!

Stills working great

Might be an issue with the third brake light itself. The third brake lights on these are notorious for leaking (trapping water)

Might work well. Depends on how much chickens dislike being sprayed by water.

I might do an update video sometime if I get a chance, but in the meantime - it's still working good! The foxes are easy to keep at bay (they HATE the sprinkler) but the skunk was super persistent and so I ended up putting a product "Dig Defence" around the perimeter of the shed because even though the skunk kept getting sprayed he/she kept coming back. Ultimately it was a combination of the Yard Enforcer and the dig defense and I'm happy to report I have zero animals living under my shed. I don't have a squirrel problem, so not sure how well it will work on squirrels but I wish you the best of luck!

Haha nope! I guess it was a slow burn.

Hi, assuming reading the manual correctly you can't make the Genius 2 manually desulfate. It is supposed to automatically desulfate "as needed" while it is "maintaining" or while the only the green light is flashing.

I don't think so. I think it is designed to charge one 6V battery at a time.

Agreed the alligator style clip wont work in that case. I would leave the alligator clips off (the video at about the 1 min mark shows how they are connected/disconnected) and instead install NOCO's eyelet adapter and use that for your permanent install: a.co/d/7hG95dW

Yes, the hose that comes with the fluid extractor is definitely thin and flexible enough to get to the bottom of the differential housing. It's a fairly stiff hose but it does flex. It took me a few attempts (reorientations) to get it inserted all the way to the bottom because it's a tight fit.

Hmmm interesting. Is the cruise fuse good as well? I'm assuming the bulbs are good? Are they incandescent? In my experience these trucks don't love LEDs, for some reason the lower wattage of the LED makes everything wonky.

@@many-points yes.

I don't think this model allows you to start a manual desulfate. It doesn't allo the user that level of control.

Should be able to per the owners manual it can do lithium ion 12V though I've never personally tried using it with lithium ion. Yes it's designed to hook up and leave it.

Yes it's designed to desulfate Lead Acid including AGM.

Yeah sometimes rubber hoses tend to get very stuck. Glad you got it off.

Yes the NOCO Genius 2 has to plugged into an 120V outlet the entire time during charging

The manual says that it is designed of -4 degrees Fahrenheit to 104 degrees Fahrenheit so yes you'll need to move the battery to warmer place before using the maintainer. When in within the required temperature range the maintainer is designed to be left plugged in indefinitely (a month is fine per their product documentation).

Not sure if there is a specific 2004 sealant. The PCV I bought came with no sealant so I just used some I had on hand. For reference the car in the video is a 2007. Ultimately I don't think which sealant you use matters as long as it's air tight seal to the valve cover. I've seen some people use sealant tape as an alternative.

@@many-points Thanks for the reply, I installed my new pcv on my 2004 corolla. I used the 19mm sized pcv I bought from the toyota website, however the pcv is not flush against my valve cover! It is sticking out and will not tighten further. Is this a problem? Did I get the wrong sized pcv? I believe there are two different sizes for these cars. I have no engine codes and car runs normally.. hope I did not damage the threading

@@posadist681 Not sure, I want to say the original Toyota PCV didn't thread all the way either if I recall (just the aftermarket did) so you might be ok.

@@many-points Ok sounds good. I replaced the pcv hose too since it was cracking. I noticed some oil sludge on the old pcv valve. I wonder if that means my engine has alot of sludge in it since I did not do oil changes regularly.

Yeah lack of regular oil changes can definitely do that.@@posadist681

Bummer, yeah haha return and get a different one.

I've never tried a Lipo battery with any NOCO product. Would love to hear if anyone has tried it and had success!

There is a catch (lock) mechanism on the back of the handle that you have to push towards the inside of the handle to close the knife.

Thanks! Glad it helped.

If it get's stuck I use a pick until I can get an edge of the cardboard. Then if you can get a couple edges of cardboard away from the cylinder wall then crush the tube (pinch it) and pull out. Worst case it comes out in pieces but with enough persuasion it will give in.

True you get a more thorough clean if you take the whole thing off.

If I remove, do I need a torque wrench to tighten when I put it back on

Yeah 12V is the safest bet. Most of the batteries on the market are standard flooded lead acid which would be the 12V mode. You could cross reference battery part number online to make sure you are using the right mode, if you look up the part number and it came from a specific store (e.g. duralast = autozone) you could call the store to get additional details on the battery. I'm not sure if the NOCO Genius 2 has any safety built in for accidentally choosing the wrong mode, so best to double check before charging.

It's held up really well. I've jumpstarted about 15 vehicles successfully since I bought it. I've only had to charge it a two or so times the battery holds a lot of charge.

Hi good question. My Colorado doesn't have cabin air filter and I was under the impression a H3 (and H3Ts) also don't have cabin air filters from the factory so none to replace.
