- You asked for it, here it is! My dual battery system and all the other odds and ends connected to my electrical system. One thing i forgot to mention is that my house battery is rated for 75 Amp hours.
Your level of knowledge is always impressive, and highly appreciated.
Thank you! just want to pass on all the stuff i've learned
@@montanamontero your batteries get splashed with rain. Run battery covers over the whole battery and terminals. . Stops most parasitic drain. The hoods aren't adequate to stop it. I have a 1996 ranger and I cut a plastic jug to run as a battery cover and it works great. My rig doesn't want to die in winter if the rain sprinkles all day for days on end. The top of the battery gets wet and the it drops the charge and it doesn't start strong after a handful of days. Also, you shouldn't be running a compressor from your starter battery. It's not built for steady draw for minutes on end . Set it up on the other battery. Or both - if it draws a lot of amps.
Please keep the great videos coming. I just bought my 2003 pajero 2.8 turbo diesel and I love it. From the Caribbean
I’m loving your videos man. Thanks for posting them.
Thanks for watching! I hope to keep going with 1 a week for a bit
Hey man! Love the content! Is there anyway you would consider doing a general buyers guide for the 3rd Gen montero? Common issues, things to look out for on higher mileage vehicles, etc?
i actually really like that idea.. i might have to give something like that a go!
The gen4 3,2D comes with two starting batteries (maybe in Nordic region only). Point is the second battery tray/ mounting hardware ought to be available as a spare part and probably fits the gen3 as well.
Yes, and not only Gen4, but in Gen3, etc. all the way back to Gen 1 diesel models in Nordic at least . . .
Hi Montana Montero, In that location where you put the battery, I was debating what was more convenient, a 2nd batt or a dual ARB air compressor. A 2nd batt is nice but the compressor fits perfect in that location so I went with the compressor. LMK if you want photos of what I did. Your videos are great BTW..
Hey man happy to see your video but i want to see a video how to remove wiper fluid reservoir next to the motor of the montero
you have to remove the plastic bumper cover and then there are a few bolts holding it on
Hi, I noticed oil catch can. Can you please share your experience, does it worth it? Does it catches much oil?
It does catch a decent amount of oil.. but i'm not 100% convinced that it is really a huge benifit
I need some tutorial videos on how to do all that wiring i suck at wiring, like how did you build the front grill , like i can guess the basic like you cut the plastic in the midel but how did you make the mesh stay and not fall and what mesh is that 😵...
just a quick + Australian's can't place the second battery there
Thanks for the videos I was wondering if you could let me know where you got the rock sliders I would love to find some for my 2002 Mitsubishi Montero limited like you said in the one video parts are hard to find for these!!!!
I have a whole video on my armor, check it out! i made them myself
What did u use as a base for the battery?
I want to do this
I used an aluminum tray i found. fit perfect
@@montanamontero awww lucky lol
Hi man I have a question: what engine oil do you use in your montero? (Brand, Viscosity etc.)
Thanks!
I use generic, conventional 5w-30 in the winter and 10w-30 in the summer. Change every 3,000 miles
I just got a 2006 gen 3 and has anti lock light , traction control light , and traction control light with the word off under it on .
What could I check first ?
The traction control button doesn’t do anything when press it
Hi buddy I'm brandon from the Caribbean, whats the price for a used tow bar for the montero?
The hitch receiver in the back? I think i paid around $150 for mine when i had one from Curt. but i would only recommend OEM hitches at this point
Nice, did you or has anyone blanked of their egr valve?
i did not, i'm sure someone has, but i've left mine alone
Any leads on the supply of a Higher Out put alternator that just bolts on for these cars?
nope, i think this one was custom made, but it actually failed since this video and i went back to stock
Hey boss how can I know if my alternator is charging my Montero ?
I left the lights on and battery got almost dead then it died the next day and after jumping it I stalled multiple times and had to get jumped to get home
I charged it up and now it’s acting normal
I need to know if my alternator charging or not ?
Is it a fuse ? Diode ?
Battery looks good ,
What lights should be on ?
Also I have a big speaker system the previous owner installed and I think it could be draining it maybe 🤔
if your alt is charging you should be able to use a volt meter and text the battery when the car is on. you should be at or above 14v
@@montanamontero I fixed it , new alternator
How much would you charge someone to build that same bull bar you have ?
I’ll never make another one. It was quite a bit of work
Could you please tell how you modified your headlights
i did a standard projector retrofit. there are lots of videos on youtube about how to do it. i just used a cheap amazon kit. it's worked well for me
