Eric guys like you make this World a better place bro. Thanks for your time and expertise.
Eric you are probably the most easy going guy to watch with this kind of video that i have ever come across not patronising and very helpful , thanks a lot.
As I said in the video I already have. See the video in the description for the complete procedure.
I've had my Element for about 5 years not and it's been trouble free for the most part. The K series has held up very well also. I've wanted an Element since they came out BTW.
I did spark plus on my cr-v today. As a total novice, what a fun, easy, satisfying job!
I've also been digesting your videos on more intense stuff like suspension components, etc. Thanks so much for your channel!
It's a good idea as there is no better time then after you do the tires but mine wasn't having any issues with tire wear so I let it go this time.
Eric, I own a 2011 Honda Crv-exl 115,000mi. thank you for a great video. I have did most of my service due to your help keep up the good work.
I'll probably do a video on that at some point. I've got plenty of Honda fluid laying around.
I agree. These NGK plugs have a special coating that does not require lubrication.
Eric, thank you so much for posting these videos. Your contributions are highly appreciated.
Fantastic video! Love the overall presentation as well as the sound and picture quality. Thanks for doing this! FYI, the 10K interval for Honda oil changes is predicated on the use of synthetic oil. But, I agree, I don't want to leave anything in there longer than 5K either.
Hi Eric, Just wanna say that I did my first HONDA CRV Timing belt, water pump changed after watching your video. So just want to say Thank you
I'm glad you did too.
Wonderful work, Eric!
Eric deserves every sub.
I'm proud of you Eric! For using new crush washers.
Thanks Eric, I enjoy your videos and It gives me the confidence to perform maintenance on my vehicle .
Great vid Eric, learned a couple new things such as dropping spark plugs into the engine, Really enjoyed it! Thanks!
Love your videos. You're a very honest and sincere individual. Can't get enough of your videos. Love you brother keep up the good work God bless stay safe😇😇😇😇😇😇😇😇😇😇😇😇😇❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Been watching many of your videos Eric over time before i even subscribed which i do learn many thing even with things i do know it's good to just have a reminder on things as we do forget and i've learned many other things too incl all the hints,tips and what not to do which is important! Hat off to you sir for your effort in making these videos,thanks.
Same complete service that i did to my old '93 fiat. I changed: manual transmission fluid, oil & filter, sparkplugs, air filter, fuel filter, brake fluid (full). At only 65k miles but she need it, after 19 years.... nice tips Eric!!
I have a k series motor as well and I wanna change the serpentine belt and this helped alot thanks a ton! Keep up the great work!!!
Hey Eric, like others are saying, you are very awesome and cool! thanks for all the time that you spend making these videos, because they are really really useful, and helps people like me, with 2 kids in college to save money...thank you very much!!!
I really appreciate your video. Spark plugs changed @ 100k. Perfect. Appreciate.
my wife drives a 2005 Honda Element that has now 180,000 miles on it and it still runs great. I do all the service myself so far its been a very easy car to work on. Thanks for your great vids keep up the good work. Oh yea you need to tell people about the valve solenoid easy fix.
First,
Love your videos, you take a lot of time to do these. Which is great, very informative too.
Second, a tip that I have been using for years is utilizing an used spark plug cable to put the spark plug in the hole and start the threads, Once its threaded pop the spark plug cable off. Or using the cars originals, but since you have coil packs, its very hard to do so
That is correct. Wish I would have mentioned that.
Got honda element because you have one and you have this kind of videos about it ... Thanks.
Spark plug install tip I learned at a Honda engine training center..get a piece of hose that snug fits the end of the plug to lower it into the plug well and use other end of hose to start tightening it before you use the socket
I checked my valve adjustment/ lash measurements (no noise) on my crv with the same engine at 140k. Exhaust was very tight, maybe .004 in , I adjusted them to the recommended range (Exh .011-.013 in). Other forum posts on web also read about tightening clearances over time. Engine now clicks at idle, runs great.
I love the videos Eric!
Couldn't thank you enough for what you do for us.
Thank you! Appreciate the explanations of why for each.
Long wrenches help a LOT.
Just love your channel, you explain it perfectly , i have s honda element also. So youve helped me be a better mechanic!! Thank you
Good video Eric.
i'd love to see the power steering fluid video. Can't wait to see it.
Just bought an 04 element with 280,000, needs a head gasket but damn are these things built well, northeast driven and not a lick of rust!!!! Great videos Eric, keep up the great work!!!
WOW.. This post makes me hopeful.. I'm at 206k on my 2005 E. I hope to make as far as I can in mileage. 🙂
Your videos are great Eric. Keep them coming.
you sir have changed my mind on buying that $22 tool! or making on!
thanks so much!
Lost it years ago. Keep in mind I've been doing this for a living for some time now. I'm not saying that's right not to have a grommet but I've been working without it for years now so I guess I'm used to it.
Hi Erick I enjoy and appreciate your videos. You mentioned accidentally bending that fragile electrode on the spark plug. I use a foot or so of fuel line and stick the plug into the end of the fuel hose and then i have total control of the plug and can start the threads by hand to make sure i have no cross threading especially in delicate aluminum heads. just a thought from myself to you. Happy wrenching J.W.
I have the same year same color same 2.4 but i cant tell if you have the 5 spd. These videos have helped me veryy much thank you eric.
ERIC, here's a tip I use on my vehicle. When I put the plugs back in I use a old plug boot to snap the new plug into.(in ur case, urs uses the coil on type, maybe pick up a junk one from junk yard, etc, keep in ur tool box) Then use that to install the plug, and use to tighten the plug if it would happen to cross thread, the boot will slip and prevent the plug from cross thread. Also saves that dropping of the plug. Just a tip what i recommend...:)...Love the vids, learn a lot from ya.Thanks
Eric. First off I haven't seen your channel in a few years. I bought one of these looking for another on facebook marketplace, offer up, and ebay. Today a randomly log on and see some long bearded hipster doing a review on a 2003. (Internet spy's seen my browsing and set a trap in youtube) Then it auto changed to your channel. I had no idea you had one and had so many videos for it. I also learned 8 new things from your channel.
When I see you open up a cover with the dirt and debris adjacent to the components take a minute and vacuum the dirt to keep out of the engine. Makes me crazy to see sloppy work when a wet rag would solve the problem and possibly prevent a disaster by junk in engine.
Yeah, I thought the same thing. With the spark plug wells open and any of the spark plugs removed you run a risk of introducing debris into the engine. For the same reasons; you want to have parts and materials laid-out and ready to go. So you won’t be exposing these entry points for a longer period of time than necessary, also this is no time to walk away from your work, looking for something you need.
Mr. Nice guy please make a video on replacing the element's ball joint/ control arm. It is a pain in the ass you are right. Thanks in advance.
Excellent informative video! ( 10:45… I use an 18” long fuel hose to gently lower in spark plugs. I only use spark plug socket/wrench to torque spark plugs to spec)
for the power steering on my Honda i use the turkey baster like you did for the brake fluid. i run it a few days and do it again.
Very informative. Looking to buy a used 04 Element with 127K miles on it and this is just what I needed. Thanks!
I am proud of you Eric good job.
I've actually found out that NGK puts a coating on their spark plugs that don't require any lubricants at all, especially anti-sieze. I haven't contradicted myself, I'm just stating my opinions and preferences.
I'm so glad that I've subscribed to your channel.
Great advice - NGK or ND only! No Bosch, Champion, Autolite, AC, E3, or any other non-Japanese plugs.
I'm glad he made the switch to Diamond Grips gloves ❤❤
Thanks for the oil gutter tool!!!
Eric, please make a video on how to know what is a well vented battery...
Thanks great video like always...
This Element and my Subaru. Oh yea, my 2001 Odyssey also.
Proud of you Eric SD and keep up the good work :)
Interstate batteries work very well and last for years. The red and green donuts you can buy for your battery posts seems to keep away corrosion very well for me. It used to be pretty bad a year ago, now it's gone.
great video Eric
top tip to get the plugs in a deep hole. push the ends in to a bit of hose pipe screw them in a little and pull the hose pipe off . grate for hard to get to plugs to
Very good point. Thanks Eric
Would love to see a video of the fuel filter change in your Honda Element. Was thinking about doing this to my 03 but I think I need to pull up the rubber floor to get to it.
Haha, bungee cords scare me. Those black gloves are awesome. I've been trying to look for some and I didn't know about the special tool for the filter change on the K's! Awesome vid once again, Eric!
Eric.awesome videos! i noticed you hadn't linked that oil filter tool that catches the drips
could you do so please? thank you
I think if you had it done at the dealer it would run somewhere near the $550 mark. Perhaps more, it's been a while.
nice video I like how do you call the plastic tube that you used to straw the brake fluid
Awesome, thanks for the reply ETCG. I'm really considering one and your testimony goes a long way having seen what you've seen in the industry. I was really disappointed and frustrated by my '08 Civic (and lost a ton of money on it as a result) and was anxious about diving into another post-90's Honda. Any particular 'pattern failures' to be aware of?
I really appreciate your videos, Eric because I work at a Honda dealership now and I do a lot of the stuff you do. the new transmissions use a fluid called HCF-2, which is Honda's CVT fluid. I have the smell of it on my hands as I'm typing. Argh, should've wore gloves.
thanks - with covid -19 and not alot of money your video help me to install it myself. and save me alot of money.
thanks 🙏
i mean with covid 19 going on , and no work- thats what i meant . 😂
hey eric when you gonna do valve adjustment on this engine i got 07 accord with same engine i need to do valve adjustment on it. i believe one of mine is little noise. thanks man i love your videos
Great youtube channel! Thanks for sharing your knowledge! Great stuff!
I syphoned out a about 3 litres of fluid and put 3 litres fresh in. I drove for 5k km and did the same again. After another 5 K I changed the filter and added fluid.
It now shifts properly. Cheaper than a new transmission
Eric, you are the Man!
That appears to be the same engine that's in my mom's '07 Accord EX-L 5 speed manual. Fun car to drive, super easy to service... Honda made the rear brake pads ridiculously easy to change but tucked the air filter up under the drivers side fender. Could use a BIT more power in the mountains. Nice Element!
Wow wish I lived near you …I’d be paying for your work on my E’ great video
Spark plugs these days come with an antiseize coating on the threads anyway. I forgot to use antiseize recently, then 30,000 miles later, the plugs came right out. Plus, they come gapped already to avoid problems. Any time I check the gaps on new plugs, they are spot on.
what a great video!! ALOT of info in there WOW honda is one clean running engine!
Eric, please explain how newer vehicles operate without a MAF. Thanks!
Apparently so. I have had mechanics telling me im wrong the way im checking it. ive checked it with the engine off. however, ive been lectured that it gave a false reading. i appreciate you clearing that up. my transmission is holding up but for some reason when i let off the gas the rpms drop to 1k then back up. its been doing it for a while and its nerve racking. never done that before. but thank you sir. very helpful
E3's spark plugs works amazing on my d16y8 with the accel super coil 11076
Eric, what do you think about adding a transmission cooler to a 2006 Honda CR-V AWD? Thanks in advance.
great vid. I work in a shop and its really a great job but idk why sometimes an air filter will just kick my ass lmao. can be frustrating haha they all go back though.
Can you do a video on replacing the belt tensioner for your honda element?
Its like sitting around at the garage drinking a cold one, soaking up game from the old heads. Eric the mutha effin' car guy!
Excellent video. Thank you. Would have the part number or. a source for the "tool" that helps in diverting the oil mess from the oil filter.?
No Eric!
U were supposed 2blow off the area about the coils2 prevent contamination of the spark plug wells& again after loosening ea plug2 prevent contamination of the combustion chambers.
I mix my Permatex Anti-seize w/ATF 2keep it fresh& viscous. A dab will do ya. I recommend this2 prevent long term anodic corrosion. That was the squeaking that I heard when u were removing the spark plugs.
I use a mechanical or magnetic spark plug socket for removal& installation. Further, I recommend the coati gang of the inner coil boot w/silicone dielectric. Some also prefer 2coat the exterior male DCI electrical connectors w/either white lithium grease or silicone dielectric compound 4the same reason.
Just remove the plastic cover Eric. Once u bow them up, it takes a replacement or removal &heat gun tweaking 2get back2 normal. Otherwise it will b hanging out in2 the air stream &adding drag.
About power steering fluid, I'm going to tell on myself a little. I'm not sure when it was last changed, which probably contributed to the p/s pump failing (thanks for the confidence you gave me to replace it myself!). The old fluid was jet black, compared to the transparent new fluid. If anything this further reinforces to me the importance of general "boring" maintenance work.
Anyhow great video! :D
i loled about the crush washer finally u used knew washer
I'm proud of u Eric , nice new gloves btw
Check out NGK's website on why you shouldn't use anti-sieze on their spark plugs for more info. In fact I shouldn't have used the oil either.
I was wondering if that upper radiator hose blew off yet?
It looked a little bubbly @ the thermostat housing in the video @ 22:28
Fairly good work.
You need to invest in a spark plug socket haha also look in the back of any Chilton or Haines and it will give you a guide (with pictures) of how to read spark plugs, the idea behind diagnosing a head gasket would be looking for a plug that looks unusually clean hinting at water (coolant) leaking from a water jacket into your cylinder via a bad head gasket or warped head.
To stop battery sulfation on my ej8 I replaced my negative wire from the battery to the chassis with a negative 0 gauge replacement from autozone and then from the same bolt where these 0 gauge negative negative cable attach to the chassis I run a negative cable 4 gauge to the same bolt grounds the transmission to the chassis.
Eric, what is your favorite timing mechanism? Timing belt, timing chain, or timing gears? Me personally I thing I prefer gears or chain as long is its not driving the water pump. But please can you make a video explaining the difference (performance, durability, service, etc) between the different timing mechanisms?
Hey Eric,i alwaysput a small amount of papertowel around the sparkplugs so they dont fall out of the wrech-nut. AAlways worked fo me and the paper stayed in the nut 100% of the time
Amazing man, you are a legend ❤️👍
Nice one, last time I replaced an alternator was on my 1978 Triumph :)
I used a syringe to suck out all so it was nearly dry, my old cars power steering fluid.
Added new fluid, then did several lock to lock turns of the wheel to circulate all the new fluid and after wards steering felt better
Pb blaster cap fits on power steering resiviour perfect btw
Oh I forgot to mention that the white ash deposits I noticed on your plugs is possibly due to fuel additives , or lean condition . Equally important to have your car checked with a lap scope for all electrical parameters, specially for O2 sensor even if there is no trouble codes. Also when reconnect the injectors or any contact, spray a squirt of video head cleaner to freshen the contacts from any glaze. Also use contact cleaner on other contacts. Love your Videos.Have a nice time.
Heard it but haven't tried it.
