Remember most the control functions are ground switching so the computer provides the ground to latch the relay. I think the transmission relay is different but that is a another topic. So pin 30 and 86 have power. Pin 87 goes to the pump and pin 85 goes to the computer, so yes the brown wire on the C3 connector.

@@RetroAnachronist Well I am going to assume you are taking about the audio...thank you for pointing it out, I will check the settings in the editing software.

I would not replace it, often the manufacturers parts are better than most aftermarket these days. Electric fuel tend to last a very long time provided the vehicle doesn't sit to often for long periods or isn't run out of gas

@@MongrelsGarage Hello, thanks for the quick response. My truck is my daily driver & I only allowed to run out of gas 1 time intentionally as i thought I had bad gas. Hope that doesn't really count?

@@supercraig2009 1 Time should not shorten the lifespan significantly, just remember the fuel is what keeps the pump cooled, the less fuel you run with the hotter the pump runs and heat is what takes most of these out...or corrosion from sitting too long which should not be a problem in your case

@@MongrelsGarage Ok, great advice. Makes sense. I will do my best to maintain and keep a 1/4 to 1/2 tank gas at all times. I plan on keeping my 2011 Frontier as long as possible. Thanks there 👍

Does a Nissan frontier 2013 have a fuel filter ?? I can’t find any videos . Maybe it just has this sensor and fuel pump ?

@@EYE_SPIDER As you get older and start loosing your marbles...you learn all sorts of tricks to help you out 😜

@@EYE_SPIDER Thank you for watching and you're welcome for the help. Sorry we couldn't make a little better progress.

@@torqueracingproduction No, no it is not! Thanks for watching, looking forward to seeing the reaper again one day soon!

@MongrelsGarage probably have some head porting videos while she's apart this winter.

@@glenmiller3783 Thanks Glen, day wasn't so bad as it end pretty darn good...threw the roof down and went for a cruise

@@timothyfritsch8801 It was a little tight but definitely seen worse, thank you so much for watching and commenting!

I'm inclined to believe it did indeed

@@timothyfritsch8801 sorry no not near Edmonton, closer to Calgary

whoa that might be close enough so my boy lukas is up there he is like a park ranger,,,,hobby so he might pass by your area

he just got that saturn i seen you working on and i am having doubts as it already brokedown anyway be cool to make a connection there cause i know what i see your a good man and a great mecc glad to know ya

@@timothyfritsch8801 Thank you for the compliment, I do what I can. Hopefully he won’t have too many problems with it.

I think this is a question about the other video and the park safety switch. Short answer is no it will not work as these focus on the truck PCM, the big difference is that the cars use a separate controller for the transmission. I have not play around with the car PCM/TCM much so I have limited knowledge on them. Sublime Technologies (AKA DIYHemi) would be a good source. Does your PCM even have the green connector on it or is it blank?

Unfortunately it's not an uncommon problem for the Hemi's, although I do believe they got better in the last few years...or at least I haven't heard of as many having problems on the 2019 and up

The truck PCM takes some tuning to allow for electric fan control…well 2004 and prior do. 2005 and up had electric fans. However this video was intended as more of a general how to video and not application specific, but you are correct the PCM would be good for fan control if someone has that option.

Thanks Glen, I sure hope it does! As always thanks for the watch and comment!

Thank you, something I learned a while ago. Keeps things a little tidier.

Thanks buddy, well we have something in common as we both enjoy each other’s projects! Sure hope Morticia is doing better!

@@neverbored_s10_addict OOH! I see what you did there! Completely approve! Thanks for the view and comment

BOOM BABY!

@@MongrelsGarageglad you got it lol, yeah i been trying to catch up on everyone

@@chapmanracing1206 No, you’re not missing it. I have not made it…yet. These videos did not get a lot of interest when I first made them so I moved on to different stuff. I do plan on coming back and making a more comprehensive video as I have been getting a lot of requests now. Thank you for the comment! Have a fantastic day.

@MongrelsGarage I think it's because they were harder to get ahold of a few years ago and spendy. I know they really just started really becoming available in salvage yards here. I'm doing a gen 3 hemi swap on a D150

Already been using the space and it is great! Yeah you’re not wrong about shorter days, we are going to build ends for it and grab some lights. Haven’t got to heating it yet…I mean it’s Canada dude, how cold can it get 🥶

@@MongrelsGarage guess we will find out won't we?? LOL

😂 yeah, can’t say for sure he does…but I suspect he must form time to time 😜. This one was sitting outside for a few years not covered or anything, actually a little shocked it wasn’t seized and it still works at all

@@MongrelsGarage hey it worked out for the better! That being the case, speaks for the quality of that generator! I think gas with ethanol in it would have destroyed the fuel system!

@@OlysGarage That shutoff valve was a real pain to clean out. Never seen anything that bad, so it almost did destroy it. Was very surprised at the condition of the carb though

@@MongrelsGarage that's awesome! I'm surprised at what carbs are available these days though, even if they are from cHYnA they seem to work ok. I had one that was destroyed, and a ChyNA was my only option.

That’s what I use it for, good fire starter

I could have used it a few times over the years that’s for sure. Thank you, stay well too!

I have a painless light that has 2 wires coming from it, now I'm wondering how I will get ur message,wondering if I should send email?

@@stanleyhasting6047 Good tip on the clip, thank you for the comment

I’ll be honest this is a bit high risk, that being said I have done it myself. In more desperate times. My record is about 50% success using used pistons and not going thru the rest of the engine properly. To minimize your risk check all your clearances are correct (ring gap, bearings, etc) give it a bit of a hone and check bearings are still good, but short answer is I wouldn’t recommend it.

@@MongrelsGarage sounds like good advice and I'll skip that idea.👍

Thank you for the comment, it’s greatly appreciated. I do plan on making a step by step video in the future…but there are a few projects to get done first. Since there is now a fair bit of interest in the complete swap I will try to advance the time line on that video.

Hard to say, you would have to do some troubleshooting to narrow it down. Start with simple stuff like checking the fuses and relays. From there determine if you have spark and fuel pressure

@@MongrelsGarage okay thanks 🙏🏿

Thanks Brian, looking forward to putting it to use

Thanks Glen, already did a few things in there...sure nice to have a bit of shelter! Hope you're doing great!

@@MongrelsGarage doing great out here. You fill in the back wall add a door and a bunch of spray foam you will be good for winter.

It sure is a nice start, looking forward to putting it to the test

@@strange_daiz sorry I have not worked with the 2015 and up. I believe they need physical modifications to be tuneable. Sublime technologies (DIY Hemi) does have some experience with them I believe, have you tried getting in touch with them

@@MongrelsGarage Thank you, I will look for em. I have collected a few connectors to make a setup like you did. Will see see what happens. Thanks for your video, it helped me overcome my fears.

Nope, all are fine

Hunkering engaged!

Yes it’s a 5.3 and 4L60. The 283 and Powerglide are long gone, use what you got and just get it back on the road.

@@MongrelsGarage Yessir!!! 🙂

Honestly it’s gets a little more complicated with the newer stuff and having to talk with the other modules. Do you have to…no, there are ways to do it without having to. If you want it to talk to the BCM and other modules then yes you will need to match the vin.

Can I update the VIN myself or do I need to take it to someone?

@user-rs3iq3gg7m If you have the right tools you can update the VIN yourself

What tools will I need and what about the skim? Can I unplug the immobilizer or will I need to swap out the ignition for the GC keys? Thanks

@user-rs3iq3gg7m Well to be honest you’re starting to get a little out of my wheel house. I have not had to deal with making one compatible with a newer vehicle and having the SKIM recognize the new PCM. HP Tuners is capable of doing a lot of work and resetting the SKIM, but if you install the PCM in a SKIM vehicle, that vehicle will enable the SKIM again. Don’t have to worry about that in classic vehicle swaps because they don’t have the other modules. This is where something like the Autel 808 or similar bidirectional scanner might be useful as it has the ability to program the different modules, however you may need to get the vehicle PIN from a local dealer.

Admittedly I’m a little biased as I do own a 78 w72 car and it’s one of my favourites

Sorry, they have not been made yet. However I have discussed some of it in the comments for this video and in the part 1 video. Also if you have and specific questions feel free to ask.

While you are correct about Mopar saying the cam bearings are non-serviceable, you are incorrect about having to replace the block as there are bearings available and they can be replaced. That being said each situation is unique.

@@MongrelsGarage You're right. I meant to include "According to Mopar, you have to replace the block". That's what the service manuals, dealerships and Mopar itself states. You're right, though, a good machine shop, and finding the right aftermarket bearings, can get it done. It's definitely not something a shade tree mechanic could do themselves. However, most people replacing their camshafts aren't pulling the engine. So it's worth mentioning the mammoth amount of extra work involved should one of those bearings get damaged in the process.
