    Any time you connect a battery, you should always connect the positive FIRST then connect the NEGATIVE. That way it don’t spark when connecting. The same would apply here. Connect the positive to the battery and TAP the NEGATIVE . NO SPARK that way hence no flames or flame throwing.

    I was cleaning my injectors today in my underwear at home, i live by myself so don't ask y i do this shit, lol, and some sprayed on my underwear and got on my penis and balls, man i was running for the bathroom like the fkn road runner. Man castration got nothing on some good ole injector cleaner lubricating your balls with the devil's fkn fire. Dipped my balls in a full bucket of water n let me paint a picture in your mind, if you see lava flowing into the ocean n it looks as if it never gonna cool down, that's injector cleaner on your nutz! No amount of water seemed to work, after sitting there on that bucket with my ballz hanging down for like 40 minutes, i had to run for a few blocks of ice and the ice was like throwing gas on a camp fire. Trust me, when using this shit, cover up your eyes and your nuts!

    I found this out the hard way. Had lowering springs installed and ended up with one of my rear shock seals blowing under heavy cornering load. It didn't cause the shock to completely fail but was leaking so ended up having Bilstein shocks installed. Made so much difference and now handles beautifully.

    The T56 in my 1996 Camaro SS has an issue with 5th gear. When I try to shift into 5th and let the clutch out, it doesn't seem to fully engage and pops out. Sometimes if I double clutch it, it will go on in. The rest of the gears - reverse, 1 through 4 and 6th all engage fine. What could be wrong? Bent shift fork? Worn shift fork pads? Bad synchros for 5th? Since 5th/6th gear assemblies are accessible from removing the tail shaft, would replacing the synchros or shift fork pads be an easy job I could do in my driveway?

    This has been driving me NUTS! I did brake jobs on both of my cars as I have done in the past, everything went smoothly. One car is great, no problems. My Altima has been making this sound when coming to a stop, and it's just gotten worse. No other videos on TH-cam talk about how to rectify this issue. I cleaned everything with brake clean, cleaned all the slide pins again and regreased them, I resat the hardware for the brake pads after cleaning rust off the bracket again. And I added a washer that I noticed was missing from the caliper mount. Everything I did fixed my issue. Thank God, I was going nuts! Thank you so much for the pointers!!
