Thank you for you comment.

Love the magnet idea... Really pleased that it helped you. All the best.

Thank you.

Thanks for your comment.

We are everywhere mate, all the best.

I am happy to hear that it worked. When I made this video I thought that it might get a few hundred views but it appears that the problem with the nylon plug is very common. I appreciate your kind words.

Happy to help, thanks for the kind comment.

I am happy to be mistaken but I do not recall saying anything about pre-filling the fuel filter housing. I thought that I was quite clear about priming the fuel system before attempting to start the engine.

⁠@@johnvienta7622the part about draining into a clean container to re use. Im assuming now you meant pouring it back into the tank? That’d be fair enough. I misinterpreted that

@@jakob31448 . No problem at all, I got a fright thinking that I had given incorrect information. Yes, I recall saying that if the fuel was clean it could be used again.. Thanks for your comment.

.... It could be the brake light sensor itself. No expert on those things but try pushing the plunger rod in with your finger while someone looks at the brake lights. If they do not go off that is where I would be looking.

@@johnvienta7622 thank you

Do you mean that you tried to get it to fit inside the small hole where the nylon insert was? If you place the adhesive pad on the metal and cover the hole it should be fine. The object is to activate the retractable pin at the end of sensor.

Excellent question. Unfortunately I do not have an excellent answer.

Four cylinder engine, 4 plugs.

Happy that it helped you.

Thank you for your kind comment.

I have sold that vehicle so no more videos, sorry.

No worries. Glad it helped.

Stick with it, but have someone ready to give you a hug afterwards as you will need it.

@@johnvienta7622 lol that doesn't bode well at all!

@@flyingpictures1100 .... Plugging in the wiring loom was the frustrating part. I think that I said in the video about rounding up a random child to climb into the space under the steering wheel. And get a good torch or light so you can see what you are doing.

No problem. I hope that it helped you.

Glad that it helped you. All the best.

Thanks for the comment.

Thank you for your comment.

Thanks mate, pleased that it helped you.

It did not stop the leak completely but did have an effect as previously it was actually spraying out. I spoke to the people who make it and they said that another coat may be required but it has not been empty since so we have not had the opportunity. I would probably go heavier along the actual crack if I did it again.

Thanks for that. Have been tossing around a few ways to go. Getting a liner installed or even dropping a poly tank inside as I have just a tin roof cover. Still not sure what to do. Would be frustrating to clean it out and patch up and still have leaks. Thanks for posting. You cleaned up your tank really well before the seal. Not an easy task

@@tonyfletcher1718.. I looked at liners but was worried that the concrete tank may be unsound. My issue was that one section was a bad pour (about 28 years ago) and could fail and that is one of the things they discuss re inner linings. The concrete tank is pretty well a spare as we also have a poly tank but I prefer the water from the concrete. I have been told that concrete tanks can become unsafe when they are empty for a long time and have heard of them collapsing, so ask an expert re the idea of dropping the poly inside, although as you said you have a metal top. All the best.

Thanks again John, you have been a great help. I may have a go doing what you did. My tank has about 200mmof water and mud in the bottom so I'll have to bale that I suppose. I was amazed how clean and dry you got the bottom of your tank. I'll need to clean mine to get the full picture. I have about 3 vertical cracks and 1 horizontal. They all just weeped or dripped with moss on the outside. I realised the tank was empty when I saw the moss was dead. Its been leaking for over 10 years but never emptied before but with the current lack of rain in West Gippsland it wasn't getting any topups. Thanks again for posting your video

@@tonyfletcher1718.. Believe me mate, there was a lot of work involved in getting the sludge out before the video was done. We scooped a lot out and then used a little transfer pump with a hose running out through the bung at the bottom, then mopped up the rest.

I know the feeling..... Thanks for the comment and all the best to you.

@@johnvienta7622 I wanted to revisit this as I just completed the job as I got the things today, not exactly the same but same same but different. Holy shit SO much easier than what I was trying to do!, start the car, jam the pedal clean with iso alcohol install and done.. took me longer to get my fat ass on the floor and back up than do the fix. Kudos to you good Sir and I raise this drink to you!.

@@gatekeeper88 .... I hope you enjoyed the drink... I agree that sliding into the well is not a lot of fun, and getting out not much easier.

Thanks for the kind comment.

Got it off Ebay. The item number was 354516651747. Seller was sign 9890. Blower fan motor heater fan Holden Rodeo TF. Hope that helps.

@@johnvienta7622 thanks for that mate

Where are you that it is already the 28th??? That is an impressive bit of work, and I especially enjoyed the skillful work involved in removing the rough surface.

Australia. It's the nob with the reverse lift before engage into the left forward position. The only thing is it doesn't make the rest of the car, especially the nut behind the wheel, any better. Cheers

Thanks for the comment. Tricky little thing isn't it.

Thanks mate, thanks for the kind comment and all the best to you.

I have two videos about that job so hopefully it works for you. It appears from the comments that some of the vehicles have a slightly different set-up.

Good idea as there seems to be a big difference in the quality of the metal used for the flaps on different brands.

Thank you for your kind and thoughtful comment.

I looked that the first video I did about this filter ( Location/removal ) and unfortunately I did not cover the removal of the clove box itself however I seem to recall that it had a damper rod on the side, and when they was unclipped the glovebox just dropped down and pulled away from the pivot points. You may have a different type but I have found (from other vehicles) that squeezing from the middle of the softer plastic at the back part, pulls the sides in and allows it to drop down. It was a friends vehicle and I do not have access to it at the moment.

Tricky little thing isn't it.

I am pleased that it helped you, and your daughter. Tell her that it was your idea for bonus points. All the best.

Much less chance of a screw taking your eye out.

Sorry, I am at a bit of a loss to suggest anything.... Is the catcher itself hitting the ground as you mow.

Those are some top ideas, especially the one about closing the door. I know that there are numerous tricks to get the clip off and on, and I nearly laughed my socks off when a mechanic called it a Jesus clip. I am assuming that you are not Crompton the racing driver.

@@johnvienta7622 no i'm not,but ppl on fb think i am even though theres a statement on my fb that says i'm not.

Some ppl call them "shit" clips too,i used to work in the automotive trade & would regularly yell shiiiiit when the clip flies off 🤣🤣🤣🤣 I've also seen a video on ut that shows you how to remove the handle circlip using a wire garbage bag tie & another using a clean rag or a sock,they both work amazingly well too 😉

All good mate..........@@neilcrompton3488

Thank you for your kind comment and glad that it helped you. All the best.

I was certainly impressed by it. From what I have read they add detergents to fuel and I doubt that they would put in anything that improved fuel economy as that is not in their interests. Re the rough idle you might like to check/clean the MAF (Mass Air Flow) sensor, using the spray designed for that job. Thanks for your comment.

Not sure what "Tolk Tolk" is but thank you for your comment.

Which country are you in, as I am interested in which countries use this system.

@@johnvienta7622 I'm in the UK

Thanks for that. Two of the dryers I saw were in England and the other in Ireland.@@baldrickhornby9646

Thanks, however we had no trouble at all with fuel being delivered from the tank as the fuse had been removed and the pump was inactive. I did have someone comment several years ago that they had diesel flowing however I believe that they kept the ignition on and that caused the issue...... Clamping the fuel line is certainly a good additional measure.

No keys in ignition. If I hadn’t clamped the top fuel line the whole tank would have drained. I thank you for your video, it was a big help. Just letting you know what happened with mine and may happen to others.

Thanks for that...... bit of a mystery why some vehicles continue to draw the fuel towards the filter and others do not.@@rogerajohn8193
