    Yes, I've subscribed & rang the notification bell. Excellent & informative video. I "stumbled" onto this video/topic, something I didn't even know existed. I bought some, tested a strip on the brake fluid which was OK & coolant which told me the coolant was on the verge of turning acidic. I successfully drained & replaced the coolant in my car yesterday using the OEM No Spill Funnel to help with the maintenance. Everything worked - no engine overheating -- plenty of heat from the car's interior passenger heater & I replaced the same amount of coolant as I drained. The Phoenix System test strips is a MUST have/use if or when looking to buy a used car.

    Everyone complaining about him not showing him actually removing the sway bar……If you listen to what he’s SAYING, he tried to remove the links but they broke. If you can’t figure out how to take yours off, call a mechanic. He showed you got to remove a bushing, at least on one side, the other is exactly the same! After removing bolts from the bushing brackets he tells you he has to jack up the control arm and it “pretty much pulled it straight out. There was a little bit of a tug at the end but once I gave it a tug it pulled straight through”. Do you people seriously need a visual for every little detail?
