I didn't have a head gasket problem. I had an oil leak and cylinder 3 misfire problem and took the heads off to diagnose it and check the health of my engine.

I believe it is a Cavendish banana.

She's holding up well. Had a few issues unrelated to the work I did in the videos. A busted coolant hose that was easy to fix, and the original alternator finally died after 24 years of service. I did both of those repairs myself. I filmed the alternator repair, so I plan to upload that sometime in the near future. Aside from that, she's been running like a champ.

@@ColoradicalMike Nice! I’m currently in the middle of my own head gasket replacement on a 2002 3.0… actually, I’m doing it for the second time, kinda. First time I just did a slap job… bolted the head on, threw on the timing belt, and checked the compression. Unfortunately only about 120psi in 1 and 3, 150 in 5, while 2, 4, and 6 all have 170+ So I took it back off today, pulled all the valves out, and tomorrow I’m lapping them and doing the sandpaper on glass trick to hopefully get a flatter surface and better compression! I don’t plan to touch the driver side at all.

😂😂😂 Accurate

Thank you

Thanks 💕

Yes, they will. I've already experienced that. Lol. One heck of a painful sting!

Yes, you can, though I've heard that it is hard to get a good ratio of uncompressed volume to compressed volume, so not many do it unless you can get high enough pressures to liquify it like how they store propane.

Just soapy water, rags, copper brushes, time, and effort. A good dish soap works great as a degreaser.

Thank you! True words. Confidence is key.

You're welcome, happy to help!

I don't think my model has the speed indicators. Mine has the 4 wheel display, but it only indicates whether or not 4 wheel drive is engaged.

Thank you! Cheers!

Yep it's 4 N-m.

Thanks, I'm glad you liked it!

The smell is like the smell of manure. It's only noticeable when you open it to feed it. The smell dissipates quickly the further you get from it, so unless your neighbors are really close, I don't think they'd notice. For colder climates, it's recommended to put it in a greenhouse to keep the temp up. If it falls too low, your gas production will stop.

@@ColoradicalMikethanks so much for the info!

It's not recommended to reuse them.

Thanks, and you're welcome! Best of luck to you. You've got this. Though, if you can find someone to help, it wouldn't hurt.

I believe small amounts of toilet paper are fine. I use a bidet for that, so I haven't tested it. It's like a septic tank, which can usually decompose toilet paper, so I don't see why you couldn't.

No, it was about 5 buckets or 25 gallons worth.

I wouldn't have the time, sorry. You can do it yourself. Just believe in yourself. You've got this.

You're welcome, and thanks! I appreciate the support!

Yes, you may, but you will still want to use a variety of organic waste. The bacteria that make the methane need a balanced diet for optimal performance.

Nice. Good luck, and may all go well with your repair. Glad you liked the videos and thanks for your support!

Hi, 44 N-m or 33 ft-lb.

The concrete I used was pre-mixed and already had the sand and gravel mixed in with cement.

Link is in the video's description, cheers!

Looking from the front of the engine, it is behind the crankshaft pulley and just above and to the left of the crankshaft timing gear. The cable is routed behind the accessory bracket and plugs into a terminal attached to the metal coolant pipe on top of the engine in the middle. The terminal and wire are visible without taking anything apart, but you need to remove the accessories (alternator, fan, etc.), the accessory bracket, and the crankshaft pulley to get access to the sensor. I show replacing mine in a video later on in the series.

@@ColoradicalMike thank you!

Thank you! You can connect it to a stove/range that is made to use natural gas though you may have a noticeable decrease in the individual flames for each burner if you cook with multiple burners at the same time.

@@ColoradicalMike oh okay! Thankyou for clearing that up....great advice and video again 😊👏👌

You're welcome and thanks again!

Thanks, lol. You are very welcome!

It will vary depending on your location and shipping charges. The base price is $700. The link to their website is in the video description. You will probably find the answer to your question there.

Hola, yo no se de dónde que puede conseguirlo todo el tiempo, pero yo vistelo una vez en unos de los mercados de San Sebastián que ocurre a todos de los Viernes.

They need to be tightened in a specific way. There are multiple torque values that you have to hit. The point of this process is to tighten down the head gradually and evenly across the mating surface or else risk warping the heads or damaging the head gasket. The process is too long to explain in a comment. I would definitely recommend buying a service manual like I did.

@@ColoradicalMike hmm…okay. We have searched all over the internet, called many people and cannot find the book for our vehicle. Ours is a 2002 Mitsubishi Montero XLS. We have followed your videos and have learned and succeeded with several replacements. It is not starting and we think it is gas related. Also, didn’t know that there isn’t a fuel pump relay so, searching vigorously to rule out if it’s the fuel pump, not enough pressure to the fuel rail and a few other things.🤨

Here's a link to the one I bought. It was very helpful as a reference and to make sure I was following the correct procedures. It also has trouble shooting processes you can follow given your situation, crank and no start or whatever may be going on. amzn.to/3ygXtbi
