    The tripod has made the content so much nicer to watch, no more seasickness, 100% improvement. 🤣🤣🤣

    Excellent, my kind of fixing... got a dragging rear caliper on the Saab so shall try cleaning it all up before replacing.

      Always worth a try first.
      P.s. love your content, I don’t think anyone else could make videos about motorways as interesting and funny as you do.

    I feel like I've just watched a BBC documentary with that tripod.... I usually enjoy looking at the pavement while you struggle to do a job one handed 🤣

      It all seems a little bit too polished for this channel. I usually like to leave the viewers with a combination of seasickness and confusion, as in no idea what I’m actually fucking doing.

    So you do have a left arm. I must say the tripod is a great addition.
    I've go no brake problems at the moment but I'm thinking I'll do this anyway, a clean up and greasing of the callipers. Another great little vid.
    Cheers.

      Your right there, trusting that rusty old jack? You'd think that a high calibre mechanic like him would have a nice shiny high quality jack with matching chocks and stands!

      I’m waiting for Snapon to sponsor me with a nice shiny new one, but until then this one will have to do. The only problem I have is some tit keeps borrowing it to fix his ovloV.

    Always told to use a bit of brake fluid on the piston,
    Brakes International do full caliper service kits starting at £9 for single piston calipers.

    • @StupidBlokeStupidVideos
      @StupidBlokeStupidVideos  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Brake fluid when fitting pistons isn’t a bad idea, but silicone grease is much better to keep water out and still won’t do any harm to the rubber or have any negative effect.

      @Stupid Bloke Stupid Videos I'm doing brakes, I've got brake fluid at hand,
      If you couldn't 'borrow' it from work, you wouldn't use silicone grease either, or BRRAKE PAURTS CLEENUR!!

    In my C1 i replace oil dipstick o ring.
    The engine run better, is not suck air, there is not insert moisture in the engine and maybe no loss oil from fumes.
    Dimensions o ring 8,5mm x 5mm thick 2mm.
