One thing I love about Toyota's is they use the same socket for most of the engine bay. Meaning you don't have to keep changing your socket. Can you do a video of how you place all of your bits you have taken off the car to keep them organised for replacement. Do you lay them down left to right, mark them up or what?
I got one of these from Aircat, mine is grey. Also bought the same adapter because you need that extra swivel in tight areas. I noticed you have the other aircat impact gun, I have the 1/2 which works great for almost everything including tires.
Ur new ratchet reminds me of going to the Dentist 🦷🤣 Perfect car for it's 1st use. PS- if anyone ever asks why you charge so much 💲 refer them to this video 😆 How do you remember to put everything back in the same but opposite order?
What the hell did i just get myself into. I inherited a 1995 Lexus 400 and it is in excellent condition. It was parked because it needs a water pump and timing belt replaced. The new parts were in the backseat when i got it. Now i know why the parts have been in the backseat for 3 years. Lets get this nightmare started.
Good reason not to buy a car with a timing belt, look at all that work to get at it, I’m tired just watching lol. This convinces me to only get a car with a timing chain
That car must be one of the worst to do a timing belt job on it. Others are much simpler. Timing chains can also fail and they will. Timing chain guides, and/or timing chain tensioners also fail.
@@johnboutchia2349 If one used poor quality oil, or extended drain intervals, chains will wear out and engines will be out of timing. Especially on modern engines with very long timing chains. Yes, they do last more than the belts, but if you need to replace one it's a lot more involved. In the pushrod days, the chains were very short and they lasted longer. Look at this monstrosity: th-cam.com/video/5OAWAtR1T80/w-d-xo.html And if you get a car with the chain 'behind the engine', on the transmission side, you're going to wish you had a timing belt! So, like in many things, "it depends".
@@scientist100 Define proper maintenance. Today's long drain intervals don't really help with engine longevity, chain included. If you're always buying new cars, or with very low mileage, then it's likely not an issue. But if you're buying high mileage cars, even if they were serviced at the recommended intervals, the probability of chain issues is greater. I have a 2001 model car with over 360000km. I'm happy it has a timing belt and it was changed not long before I bought the car.

Jeebus, you really had to take that thing APART! LOL

Great video, mine is getting done by a mechanic. Hope they watch this ahead of time.
Where is the fuel return line? I have to remove 3/4 tank of gas.
The center crankshaft gear looks like it's lined up using the dimple you pointed out... and the keyway in the gear/crankshaft.
That's what I saw too. Not close enough to say that they are aligned but something I guess.
You da man!
You are in Southern California??? Bro, can you help me get my car running, you have obviously high level skill
The timing belt is the first part that rolls down the assembly line ans the rest of the car is built around it.
damn might as well rebuild the motor while you were at it lol took apart half the motor just to replace a waterpump and belt. wow.
3:15 I've always heard that, but never heard the theory or fact of why it is done.
Great video thanks for sharing.
Dang....Im never buying one of those cars....got to remove half the engine bay just to change the timing belt.
Fortunately I'm good for another 100K with my '98 LS timing belt. By then it will be an EV for me. Enjoyed the video, as usual. Thanks!
Man... is that tool as quite in person as it seems on the video or did you balance the volume for the video?
No I adjusted the audio for the video while editing. It however is not super loud in person.

@@johnnyblue4799 yes I know that chains fail also but don’t have to be changed as often as belts saving some headace

Timing chain is way more difficult but with proper maintenance, you don't have to change it at all.

Early timing chains or gear driven
@5:30 That's what Keith said
Timing chain as well?
❤ we love you ❤
I think you just wanted use your new toy,...er uh, tool. 😂😂😂
Haha. Those were my thoughts as well. I was waiting for him to start taking the doors off too. 😂
Deeze nutz... Lol 3:20
SHEESHH!! No thanks! I was shopping for an LS400 too. Not anymore! I don't care how reliable they are. What a headache for a DIYer!!
Where’s the battery?? Why does it make that awful sound and what’s with the annoying hose constantly getting in your way??
Battery powered tools are for wusses. Real men used air tools.
where's Jeffrey Epstein's Black Book with 14 Drumpf phone contacts in it! Ask Nick Bryant - he's the one who got the Black Book published!
And I thought doing a the timing chain on a Honda K24 was annoying... 😩
A subaru is 10 as easy vs this nightmare
6 inches is more than enough tbh. Almost too big
What a mess that design is
