Torque Twist and Open Diffs
How torque affects the car's frame at launch, and why the transfer still lets an open differential do the one-wheel-peel. Also, cheap ways to get both tires to spin without having to open up the differential.

WATCH: How to use your car's scissor jack to break a stuck / frozen lug nut or bolt free
มุมมอง 75K5 ปีที่แล้ว
Standing on the end of the lug wrench is easiest if it works. But every once in a while a stuck lug puts up a hellish fight against the short lug wrench you're working with on the side of the road. The scissor jack method is an alternative that doesn't require additional tools. This is a follow-up to my original video on this, which can be found here: th-cam.com/video/taoElCouqis/w-d-xo.html Ja...
QUICK how to FREE stuck / frozen lug nuts or bolts - EASY!
มุมมอง 2.8K5 ปีที่แล้ว
I also uploaded this video showing the jack doing the work: th-cam.com/video/Db962nO6dho/w-d-xo.html Anyone can free a frozen lug nut or bolt by using the tire-changing tools already in the car. By using the "simple trick" of the scissor jack and emergency lug wrench most cars already have, you can be sure you'll be able to change your flat and get back on the road.

Oil change tip - how to loosen a stuck oil pan drain plug / bolt
มุมมอง 463K11 ปีที่แล้ว
Here is one way to loosen a stuck oil pain drain plug (bolt) or any other low-mounted, horizontally located nut or bolt. For safety, try to stay out from underneath the car during this process, as the upward pressure can cause the car to lift up on its suspension. In general, it's best to be out of harm's way whenever wrenching will cause movement while the car is lifted up on ramps, jack stand...
VW Rabbit oil change - How to change the oil on a Volkswagen Rabbit

Yes, this is about as basic as it gets when it comes to DIY auto maintenance and repair. The subject vehicle is a Mk1 (A1) VW Rabbit. The actual oil change was pretty fast; setup and cleanup probably took longer than the actual oil change.
1988 Chevrolet Suburban V20 with 4.10 gears cruising at 70mph
มุมมอง 3.8K11 ปีที่แล้ว
RPMs at 70 for a 1988 Chevrolet Suburban V20 (same a K20) with TH400 3-speed transmission and factory 4.10 rear gears on 33" tall tires. These revs are kinda high, but it works for towing because you're well into the power band. If I were actually towing, I'd also be driving slower, but RPMs at around 60mph are still in the mid-to-upper 2000 RPM range, so there is plenty of torque to keep thing...

    If you position the ratchet pointing downward a bit at first, it will have less angle when there's a lot of force on it and be more stable

    Just did a customers oil change on their hyundai. The guy tried doing his oil change but stripped the bolt and im sure he over tightened it cause that thing was not coming off... ugh. I'm usually against using impacts on sump plug bolts but had to lightly tap a socket on it and use my m12 stubby to loosen it. It came straight off. Man I love my stubby. Thing virtually fits into any tight space.

    🎉😂 I appreciate your effort to help someone else I have the same motivation with this information which is get yourself some BHT you can order it online easily. Take 1/4 of a teaspoon to 1 teaspoon depending on your size dissolve it in a couple of tablespoons of warm coconut oil take that every couple of hours about 4 times a day and once at night and that will destroy the virus the sooner you start the better if you start as soon as you get even the very slightest inkling of it then it won't get going
