Fixing 454 manifold leaks and announcing the Launch giveaway winner
I've had a long term exhaust manifold leak on my 454 suburban for quite sometime now - only leaked when cold then closed up, but it was enough to irritate me. So today I got into sorting it out, found the source of an oil leak and I announce the winner of the Launch Creader Elite LR giveaway via engine lotto!

Can Valvoline Restore and Protect help this Hyundai 1.6GDI Gamma II engine?

I've been servicing a friends Hyundai Accent for a little while now, and it hasnt had the best service history - in fact it barely had a service history in its first 80,000km.

Attention Land Rover Owners! I Tested the BEST value OBD Scan Tool
มุมมอง 297หลายเดือนก่อน
Today I tested the Launch Creader Elite JL, quite honestly a fantasic diagnostic unit for Land Rovers that is nearly as good as a GAP IID but for far less $$. Yeah the gap is better for funcionality but this is not far behind and I think its probably better value for money for 90% of DIY mechanics out there. Big thanks to KingBolen for suppling the scan tool, please consider supporting them if ...

Valvoline Restore and Protect engine oil is a new product here in Australia. I've seen some promising data on this oil so thought I'd give it a try in my outlander to see if it can reduce some of the oil consumption.

Disco 3 Engine Removal with Auto Trans
มุมมอง 2692 หลายเดือนก่อน
G'day everyone, I've had a buyer for the 2.7TD in my Land Rover Discovery 3 that I'm parting out. So I've spent 2 days removing the engine, gearbox and transfer case. Body on of course as I don' have a hoist at home. Most youtube creators I've seen have left the auto trans in the car, but its perfectly do-able with the trans remaining attached to the motor. Its far easier splitting the two once...

ZH Outlander Backrest Seat Cover Removal
มุมมอง 483 หลายเดือนก่อน
So one of my kids had a spew while in our car the other day. Most of it ended up on the backrest of the front passenger seat. So rather than trying to clean the seat I decided it was probably a better bet to remove the seat trim cover and throw it in the washing machine. It turned out much better and doesn't stink like vomit. Join Shanes Shed channel to get access to perks: th-cam.com/channels/...

Awesome Mate, great video mate.
Thanks guys!
great video thank you.
You are welcome!
Hi Shane, I took out air pipe between turbo and where air box pipe mates to it but cannot get it back in. (not replacing aircon compressor). Was too hasty removing it and should have taken more notice. Respect your ability - any advice please?
That one’s a nightmare, I’ve never actually fully removed it as I could never be bothered getting the right angle to pull it. I’ve previously just loosened it and moved it into a position where it was out of the way enough to get the job done. I’m not going to be much help apart from holding your tongue exactly right🤪
Do you know if the launch can disable the EGR system if you want to delete it ?
No it can’t as that would require a patch to be flashed to the ECU. Gap tool for that task I’m afraid
Hear ya bruv
What happened to the sound on the price on eBay?
No idea, recorded the clip straight in TH-cam app so that’s weird? Price was under $80 for the record
I’m on my second VR&P fill. 127K now on a ‘12 Prius. The model year has a TSB for oil consumption due to low friction rings. Whilst no oil consumption yet, I was starting to smell fuel in the oil. PCV system slurps oil so installed an OCC too. On the first start, after filling with R&P, the engine immediately was quieter/smoother running. I’ve noticed many other commenters say this too. On the first fill change the oil smelled of less fuel. From what I can see of the valve train through the filler cap, it’s crazy clean in there now. I’ve yet to see a reviewer of VR&P say Valvoline’s claims about this product are untrue.
Thanks for your feedback, its interesting seeing how its affecting others out there
Good work, I struggled to do one without holding a camera!
Yeah its a total pain to throw a camera into the mix
Im pretty sure i got a leak from my fuel filter, would that be a hose or a filter problem?
Without having a look it could be either. Balance of probability would say it’s going to be a leaking hose however
Needing to do mine. Considering a Nissen from Island 4x4 at $350 or a cheap asian off ebay for $200. Did you find out how it failed? Was it maybe just the gasket?
Didn’t really dive into the cause any further. It would be an internal issue to the cooler however as the main gaskets don’t have any potential for cross contamination
@Shanes_Shed maybe not the internal cross over but the external leak? I've got oil in the v and a decent coolant leak but the oil isn't milky. I'm yet to take off the bash plates to have a look underneath and i can't see anything on the top. Have replaced the coolant inlet and outlet plastics
where did you buy them?
ebay of course
The GAP is only VIN locked when it comes to making changes. You can scan for codes and clear them on any covered LR model.
Practically what I said in the video
Audio was not that clear, and I skipped through some of the videos, so I missed that.
Well done Byron, awesome win🎉🎉🎉🎉
So close to winning for you
@@juanalberts1 cheers 🍻
Yeah Boy !!!!!!😂❤
Congrats
@@Shanes_Shed thanks bro make sure we do a video with it
Awesome im number 1
Turns out it’s the right number
Hi Shane , I recently replaced throttle housing gaskets and in the process ripped out that connector that is dead centre in the harness you are installing. I reseated it and it seems to be working, but what is actually called ? The harness clearly comes with the female part of the connector but I’m wondering if can buy the male part of the connector ?
return fuel temperature. not sure if you can get a brand new connector, might need a bit of google to assist
How hard is it to access?
Removal of the bottom under dash cover is required - that should be all, fairly easy
It’s the fan resistor, they tend to build up high resistance drawing a lot of amps causing the “meltdown”. Must be replaced on maintenance. One guy tried to putting it down do poor maintenance on the cabin filter replacement saying the poor air flow was causing the heat up of the fan resistor…not to sure about that????
Yeah that doesn’t sound like a plausible cause
Well explaning
Thank you 🙂 I do try my best, doesn’t alway work out how I envision however
Well said. GAP has always offered the ultimate solution but they only focus on JLR products. Other tools are more for the the DIYer and then the top costing for the bigger workshops. I sometimes get the impression that people think the diagnostic tool will repair the car but that’s way far from reality. They just guide you in a certain direction and you need to fault find yourself. I watch South Main Auto and this also guides and gives you an understanding of diagnostics. Juan South Africa Johannesburg.
A scan tool is an essential tool for any modern vehicle, without it you just shooting in the dark for some faults. I few years ago I was working in a job assessing live haul truck faults - engines where all Cummins and they had awesome manuals with each fault code having a minimum 1 page guide on what causes the fault code and fault finding testing to be done. It would have really made the job easier for the techs fixing stuff in the field
Great video man
Glad you enjoyed it!
Awesome comparison, I never knew they could test interior lights etc, learn something new! Yeah I did have a fox one somewhere also like the other guys, not sure what happened to it (loaned it but never came back) but rarely would it work on various vehicles!
Interior lights was probably not the best choice of words, more accurate description would have been dash lights. You can send a signal to turn on what ever dash light you like so its good for fault finding faulty circuits or bulbs etc...
@Shanes_Shed that's pretty awesome never knew that was possible 👌
Ive got a foxwell nt510 but pretty sure it doesn't control much and won't reset service interval or battery.
Is it able to access all the modules?
@Shanes_Shed just not sure. It's pretty clunky to use and takes me a few minutes to stumble across stuff. I get live values and i think 2 charts. Handy to see the temp and pressure of the compressor and if the valves are being asked to open. Can't do things like activate a fan or interior lights. Can't adjust the idle speed. No trim values of the injectors. I did manage a deflation of the suspension though and it will (i think) put it into tight tolerances mode (still not sure what that is). There is a brake bleed function but haven't tried it to see if it works.
Brake bleed function is fairly useless unless changing out the ABS module. When I first got my GAP unit I hoped you could just activate it and it would pump brake fluid through but it didnt do that at all. Tight tolerance mode just takes the standard suspension tolerance of +/-20mm to +/-3mm. Good for alignments if the shop knows how to do it right
Hi Shane. Simple yet dumb question, what did you do with the tail end of the wiring from the box? Did you splice it into the wiring in the boot section, or run it all the way down to the harness plug in the rear bumper?
The following video after this one was the install. But yeah it just spliced into the wiring in the boot. th-cam.com/video/Qzijfm5FSdk/w-d-xo.html
@@Shanes_Shed thank you for replying! May I ask if you could tell me the type of toggle switch it was?
@@Shane-tr9veI used a Narva on/on toggle www.narva.com.au/products/60066BL/on-on-heavy-duty-toggle-switch
Ive just got a cheap Fox tool but its only to read codes
I got a not so cheap kinchrome one as well which is kinda useless
hi in mexico we got the chevy aveo from 2009 to 2018 with that eco II 1.6 engine
Unfortunately this one died an early life a few months ago. For some reason it lost oil pressure and destroyed the engine
Defo need it for my worx and jerx on my Disco.
I think its a good thing. Will be doing a comparo to GAP IID video this week (at least that the plan!)
Hoping this helps my theta enigne. It was replaced 34K miles ago.
Good luck with it. Replaced with a second hand engine or a fresh rebuild?
@@Shanes_Shed under warranty, so new or rebuilt block.
Is a Hyundai worth saving?
😅 yeah probably not, but I’m sure it’s owner would disagree
They're not bad products, only get stolen every other minute it seems. I had a pre GDI Hyundai Elantra bought new and she took some serious abuse. Not a fan of gasoline direct injection, but the older units were pretty solid. The WRC seemed to win rallies with them.
05 fosus st 233000miles wanting to give this a try would love for the motor to be clean as a whistle I could use it change vc and notice it was alittle dirty I want it better then itis but still runs great
It would be more effective if you focus in the area in question, not your face.
@@jjatyou2b and miss the opportunity to inflict myself on you? Not sure I could do that😝
Thank you Shane. As usual you are very generous to share your knowledge with us. A question please? In a 2012 D4, Some oil has leaked from the Oil Cooler into the Coolant (there is a light scum in the coolant bottle.) Is this likely to make the coolant hoses somewhat brittle? Best wishes to you.
Shouldn't have any effect on the hoses
It’s not a hairstyle it’s a lifestyle!
Its one of the few hairstyles I can actually pull of these days!
I find if you leave the filter overnight to drain, it makes it easier to see particles. The shininess of the oil reduces and particles are easier seen. I do it with the Disco 3 and Freelander.
This one god a bit of a squeeze in the vice to get the oil out - speeds up the process somewhat
