I put Straight Pipes on our Family Wagon!
In this video I'm ditching the muffler on my family Sportwagen, and installing a Banks Monster Exhaust System, which is nothing more than a bunch of 3 in exhaust piping.
I ended up getting the exhaust off ebay as it was the best deal that I found.

      The sensors aren't that expensive so you could give it a try. However, I do NOT recommend just throwing parts at a problem without trying to diagnose it first. You should scan the computer and see what codes you're getting. Most likely it will be one individual sensor, but it could also be something more serious like the ABS module. Unfortunately, I don't have any advice beyond that. Trying to fix anything without scanning first is often a recipe for wasted money and frustration.

      Diesel is less flammable than gasoline, but ideally you don't want to drive around with a significant leak. Mine was weeping for a long time before I was able to track down the source. However, it was leaking onto my motor mount, not the exhaust. If you know it's getting onto the exhaust then I would try not to drive it until you can get it fixed.

    • @VHickleGarage
      @VHickleGarage 23 дні тому

      Best bet is to try to find a wiring diagram for your car. Most likely one is a high speed, and one is a low speed. However, If you already have electric fans (which you must, if there's factory wiring) I would suggest replacing with the correct fan for your car, and not swapping to a generic. There is no benefit, and you'll likely lose the ability for two speed fan operation, and possibly your AC fan trigger.

    Hi - would a leak in the water pump cause coolant to pool ontop of the engine block? 2014 Chrysler Town & Country (if that matters). Just had new upper/lower coolant hoses and thermostat installed and now coolant is pooling up and running off the top of the engine block.

    • @VHickleGarage
      @VHickleGarage 23 дні тому

      I'm not very familiar with that platform. If you just had hoses done, and now you've got coolant showing up, it's most likely that one of the hose clamps is loose. If you're finding coolant ABOVE the location of the water pump then it's highly unlikely that the pump itself is leaking. Look for something leaking above the pool of coolant. If you get the dye and UV light like I showed here then you should be able to track it down pretty easily. My money would still be on a loose hose clamp, or hose that's not fully seated.

      It would be wise to consider your alternator output when calculating the fan power draw, but you may not need to upgrade. I had already upgraded to a Suburban Alternator prior to doing the fans. I believe it was the 140 amp unit, so I have had no problem with the fans getting enough power.

  • @Titan.Titansson

    I had the same problem with my 2006 Jetta. I thought it was the coolant temp sensor at first but the OBD shows normal temps coming out of that sensor. Back-probed the wires to make sure they were good. Only thing left--the fan control module. One expert said to replace the whole assembly but I see from your video that the module is part of the main fan, so I can replace only that part, just as you did. One tip for you: keep a couple of sheets of cardboard from your delivery boxes handy because sliding aroundon them under a car is a lot easier on your skin and knees and back than sliding around on concrete under your car, plus cardboard gives you more clearance than a mechanic's sled does. Good job!

    • @VHickleGarage
      @VHickleGarage 28 днів тому

      It is possible to replace the module only. I looked into it, and I believe it was about the same $$ as a whole new fan + module, so it didn't seem like it was worth it. On my '04 Audi it's an exterior module that I have replaced. . . however I have also replaced the complete two fan assembly on that one as well. Good Tip on the cardboard. I usually do this, but didn't this time for some reason. I'm definitely getting to an age where I can tell when I've spent too much time lying on the concrete lol. I also like the fact that if any fluids get spilled the cardboard prevents a bigger mess, and makes clean up easier.

      It's usually the fan control module that ends up being the problem, but since they're typically sold a 1 unit it is easiest to just replace the whole thing. Of course if your fan isn't coming on at all now it's could be the fan motor, but a new one should hopefully fix your problems either way. The one I used, and linked to in the description seems to be a good inexpensive option. It's been nearly a year now since I did this and I haven't had any more issues with the fans.

    • @VHickleGarage

      The bolt broke, or the sensor broke? If it's just the sensor it should be pretty easy to drill out since it's mostly plastic. Alternatively, you could use a torch to heat it up and probably get it out that way. If it's the bolt, you're going to need an extractor (never works for me), or you'll have to carefully drill it out and then chase the threads, or re-tap it. Worst case would be drilling it out too far, in which case a helicoil kit would probably be your only solution.

    Proud (and brave) owner of Scirocco 1.4 tsi petrol engine here... Hello! My testimony after this thorough and simple video (which I gratefully thank you for putting out!): - sensor replaced: lights still on; - magnetic ring wheel bearing replaced (it was needed and to further troubleshoot): lights still on. Since live data showed that rear left wheel sensor was soundingly collecting data and no diagnosis errors report other than right wheel: - Still need to check cables from rear left wheel up to abs control unit and if anomaly isn't from there, need to check fuses, voltage/power/etc from that end. ...this is an exhaustive process since I'm not a mechanic and these darn lights started their Christmas by themselves after 1 year of routine driving with no issue whatsoever... Hope still is intact but the headache factor of these little nothings that are of considerable number in VW systems and cars is starting to be very very annoying.

    Please please please complete this project and put the videos online, for selfish reasons! Have a 93 S10 4.3 Auto (2WD) but will be installing a Getrag HM290 in maybe 3-4 months. I already have all the parts. My big 3 questions are: 1)Can you use the auto steering column, or do you need to swap it out with a manual SC, 2) Any problems with the neutral safety switch, and 3) Does anything need to be done to the ECU (computer)? Thanks again.

    • @VHickleGarage
      @VHickleGarage 3 місяці тому

      It's toward the top of my list, but life has a way of getting in the way. I would also like to get it done for selfish reasons lol. 1. Auto column shouldn't be any problem at all. I believe there is a pin that can be removed to take out the shifter. 2. I haven't pulled the wiring diagram for this yet. The pedal assembly I got has the OE safety switch for the clutch. You should also just be able to jump it, but then you would be able to start it without pressing the clutch which could be dangerous if done while in gear . 3. With these early ecu's it shouldn't hurt the engine to just unplug the auto, but I believe it can be disabled in the ecu. I swapped an LT1 that came with an auto, into my oe manual Trans Am, and was able to disable the auto trans in the ecu without too much trouble. I just need to verify it's the same or similar process for the blazer. They are both 94's so I'm hopeful it will be. Also, on my T/A I depinned and completely removed the 4l60 portion of the harness. This time since it's all in the car I might bundle and hide it, or just cut it off.

      I should add onto what he answered, as my manual went out and i had to swap to an auto because that's what was available. Yes, you can use the auto steering column, as the only difference is the auto shifter, and the wiring for the neutral switch. The neutral switch on that column has a wire that runs to the ECM that only does anything when the vehicle is NOT in park or neutral, and then it has 2 wires for the safety switch circuit, and 2 other wires for the reverse lights. If you don't want to do any wiring, just leave the switch alone, but if you want the clutch safety switch to work normally, wire it in, as well as wiring the reverse lights to the switch on the driver side of the HM290. Wiring diagrams are your best friend. To your last question, the only difference between the auto ecu and the manual ecu is the shift light, and the one wire that runs to the neutral switch to tell the ecu that you are not in park or neutral. This wire only changes the rpm slightly, from what I've heard, and as long as it is unplugged or otherwise removed, you will not have any issues with it. Something I will add, (this is if you have the 700R4/4L60 transmission, and not the 4L60-E transmission), regarding the wiring going to the transmission, just remove it. All that wiring does is tell the ECM that the transmission is in 4th using a pressure switch, and informs the ECM that the transmission is overheating, or about to overheat, by using a temperature switch/sensor. There is a 3rd wire as well, and that wire is used to send power from the ECM to the Torque Converter Lockup Solenoid inside the transmission, based on what the other 2 wires are signaling to the ECM. If it is the 4L60-E transmission, i don't think there are any codes for it in the 1993 model year, so hopefully no engine light, but I am not as much help with that as I have a 1991 S10 Blazer. I will be swapping mine back when I can find another 290 or something similar and of the same rating. Good luck man!

      I haven't had any other leaks so far. No more diesel fuel smell outside, or inside the car, and nothing on the ground anymore. If you can't find any other hoses loose, or leaking then it probably is the pump.

      So I guess I spoke too soon. Just drove 2 hrs from home and went through 1/2 tank of diesel. The fitting on the front of the new pump worked itself loose and it was gushing diesel.

      I think I have the same problem. I'm not sure if it's either that or where the front hose meet the pump. But I have tma clear drop of the same rate appearing in the middle of the hose with no clear holes. I think it might be dripping from where it meets with the pump. How did you fix that?Great video BTW.

    • @VHickleGarage
      @VHickleGarage 23 дні тому

      @@givenmaponya4529 That's what I originally thought about mine. I believe I said in the video, but there was no good footage of it. . . mine was leaking from the edge of the pump itself. If you checked that the fittings in the pump are tight, and that hose clams are tight/intact, and that none of the hoses are visibly damaged, then it is probably the pump itself like mine was.

    • @VHickleGarage
      @VHickleGarage 3 місяці тому

      The battery and steering wheel lights are common with low voltage and/or battery replacement. Have you replaced your battery recently, or is it old? Low battery voltage can also cause a no start situation where the engine does still crank. Battery, and the connections would be first thing I would check. After that you really need to scan the computer to see what codes are stored.
