I am a self taught mechanic of over 30 years in the field. Helping people save money and stay safe on the road is what I am here for. If I can pass that along in my videos, that would make me feel even more accomplished. I am rather old school and do not really do things by the book, for this reason, I do not claim to make "Instructional" videos. My videos are for entertainment purposes only. Please use safety and knowledge when doing your own repairs. ~ Ben - MegaMiles

Just finished the job followed your instructions to the T they were excellent took 8hrs the only difference with my mdx 02 i had to remove the oil dip stick your instructions were perfect running fine just tested for 1 hr had to add antifreeze and move the steering wheel left and right to remove the air in the line but thanks again God bless
Im glad it helped! Good job!
great video, great instructions and explanations, this is all i need to do the job myself (it'll take me a week but I wont give up!)
Thanks for watching!
Thank you for detailed video. I have 03 mdx and thinking do this job.
Thank you for watching!
@@MegaMilesBen Great video, thank you again.
Another great video! I agree 100% with using torque wrench when reassembling fasteners with torque specs. Towards the end of the video the screen goes blank, still can hear you talking then picture comes back on 🤷. ✌🏻
I seen that too at the end. Has to be on youtubes end, doesnt do that in my original. Something happened during the upload. 😒
Great instructions ,saved me lots of time. Thank You
Thanks for watching!
Regarding the crankshaft bolt, torque to the 47 ft-lbs. Mark one corner on the crankshaft pulley bolt, then mark the crankshaft pulley at the next corner of the bolt, that's right about 60 degrees. You actually mentioned that distance in the video. Tighten to match the mark on the bolt to the one on the pulley. Definitely need the tool to do it. Lots of parts stores will lend you one, about $20 to buy.
Thanks for watching!
Nice job and this Acura mdx video helped me a lot
@jameskenyon4522 glad it could help! Thanks for watching!
thank you may the Lord Jesus bless you for helping me!
should i put any glue on the waterpump gasket?
@@juniorjones5137 no.
Thanks for watching!
Awesome video man.
Thank you and thanks for watching!
Great video
@@rasjanfitzgerald173 thanks for watching!
Great video! At the 7:30 mark you mention finding a leak and we’re gonna check out what was causing that leak. Did you find out what the leak was coming from?
I believe we ended up doing the oil filter housing gasket. That and the oil pressure sensor right there too are common for leaks.
Thank you 🌹
Thanks for watching!
Did you see Hercules is releasing a new high torque impact? That thing is going to be a monster
Besides the Ultra Torque? No, I havent.
I have both the regular gun and the Ultra Torque. The Ultra has up to 1400ft-lbs breakaway torque.
Thats what I used in the video for the crank pulley. That and the weighted socket has only worked for me this one time out of 5 different honda crankshaft bolts.

There’s the link, there new Ultra torque supposed to 1500 ft pounds , I have the same one you have so I have no use for it but this new one looks great
@MistaHoffinata thats cool, Ill have to check into it. I dont see a link, sorry.
❤❤
Thanks for watching!
Did you buy original parts from a dealer?
Is it safe to go with aftermarket timing belt kit, like Continental or other?
Thanks
@@andreilesiuk9538 my clients provide their own parts. I personally recommend Aisin timing kits. Continential and Gates are also both good brands.
Great! Thank you!
How many hours did this job pay?
Honda timing book time usually is betwen 4-6 hours depending on the model and what all you do while its open.
@@MegaMilesBen that's not too shabby I suppose. Seems like they can be done in 2-3 hours after you're familiar with the routine
@ImReelySuqi Im sure if youre just looking to knock em out, you could figure ways to make it faster.
I put a little extra time in often with cleaning and making sure on proper torque specs and such.
Youve also got initial time of getting the car set up and finding the right tools. Then theres clean up afterward, coolant burping, test drive and/or unexpected struggles durring the job.
@ImReelySuqi if youre just looking at the money side of mechanics, its definately not the way to be looking.
Mechanics dont really make that much (even with your own shop) for what they go through and put their body through. The amount of tools and special tools that have to be continually purchased. Surgeries arnt cheap either. Ive had 2 back surgeries, 4 hernia surgeries and need another hernia surgery.
To me, mechanics is about helping others be safe, stay safe and keep others on the road safe. I like to try to help my community with low cost labor and allow them to provide their own parts which helps them save more while still getting quality, experienced labor and bringing back a good name to mechanics. Too many mechanics these days are just giving all mechanics bad names.
I was born to be a mechanic and I will spread that gift to my community.
@@MegaMilesBen I totally get that. I used to be a mechanic working flat rate for Volvo. I was the same way, ended up being a little on the slow side according to my managers. But everything left clean and inspected. I only ask because a friend of mine asked me if I can help replace his water pump and I had no idea what the job paid. Thank you for the information
