    Great video thanks - I'm planning to give my Mother's 54 Reg a service shortly, so this is exactly what I need to save me some time working out what's involved. Would also love to see brake fluid change or any other servicing you do on this car in future.

    Hi there thank you for this video but I have a question about 12:00, isn't the car supposed to hold approx. 4.5L of coolant, may I ask why the emptying seems to be a very small fraction of that amount? Thank you in advance. :)

    • @JCTsFascinatingHobbies

      It should, the remainder is sat in the engine block. There is an engine block drain plug fitted. In my experience, because I change the coolant every couple of years...there isn't usually any need to drain the block. To work around this, you can fill the system with water, run the car so the thermostat opens and the fans come on. Let it cool for 30 minutes, then drain the radiator. Repeat this until you have clear water coming from the radiator. At this point you can add your antifreeze and complete the job.

    hello, I have a problem, I change radiator after heater not heated, and radiator fan not working (when opening a/c working fan) I can t found problem, have on car lpg fuel system.

      I had a similar issue when changing the coolant on the N16 I maintain, with the 1.5 QR15DE unit. Turn the heater to hot, and have the blower on full. With the engine at idle, and the radiator cap off, squeeze the upper and lower radiator hoses to help remove air from the system. It took he about half an hour to bleed the one I work on. Continue squeezing the hoses until they're no longer hard, and, you have boiling air coming from the vents, keep the AC off for this. Before starting, check all your fan connections, remove the fan plug to the radiator sensor, bridge it with some wire and make sure the fan spins. Keep an eye on the temp gauge and make sure the fans complete a full cooling cycle.

    • @JCTsFascinatingHobbies
      @JCTsFascinatingHobbies  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Oh blimey, sorry to hear this. I'd personally weigh up the cost of a replacement head gasket, against the rest of the car. If the car is rust free, and the engine was in good shape before the head gasket failure, I'd get it sorted, and, replace the timing chain at the same time, which is a common QG weak spot.

      I think so. I find it varies with mine......3 to 3.5 litres. In the video I may have overstated the amount.

    Exansion tank tank does what it say's as fluid expands with heat it goes to tank and as it cools it gets drawn back to radiator. Simple hey! When changing oil filter it is important to smear oil onto rubber seal to lubricate it when you screw it back on.

    • @JCTsFascinatingHobbies
      @JCTsFascinatingHobbies  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Indeed it does, it’s a typically Japanese style system, my K11 micro has a pretty much, identical system. Coolant appears to be drawn back into the main circuit, as and when required. As regards the filter, apologies if I did not show me applying oil to the seal, it is something I do every oil change, on all cars within my fleet 🙂

      I have just done a bit of reading, last time I serviced it, I had a look for a filter, but, couldn't find one in the obvious places. It turns out that the petrol versions have a 'filter for life' attached to the in tank fuel pump, which is not user serviceable. Some people have chopped the filter and installed an in line item, to resolve blockages and poor performance, but, if its not broken, leave it alone 🙂

      If it has no rust, and just needs recommissioning, I would. Take it for an MOT, first....after checking for obvious failures, bulbs, tyres, headlamp adjusters. If the failure sheet is not too horrific, go for it.....you never know, it might just go through!

    I need warm engine to change the oil. How many km should i drive to get it heated up?

    • @JCTsFascinatingHobbies
      @JCTsFascinatingHobbies  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      I tend to start the engine, run it at a fast idle for 15 minutes, then shut it off and do the oil change. You don't need to travel anywhere, the oil ideally needs to be warm, but, not scalding hot. Warm enough so it has circulated around the engine and is thin enough to drain effectively.

      Sorry for the late answer, unfortunately not i only have the manual in paper. Something more, never mix oil with coolant because this way they can't be recycled.
