You're welcome!

Im glad it could help and hopefully saved you a time and/or some money!

I almost did the same thing! I have to fix it probably every 2 years. It only take about 30 seconds now 😆

In figured that out after the fact and talked about it in the next video about the crank seal when I had to replace it again.

@@DariusBuildz Not fun pulling that seal out from that far back - did you have to pull timing cover?

Nope. Pulled right out and replaced it again. It had hit the timing chain and knackered it up and was leaking oil again.

I had it for sale for $900. Sold it with no engine, no seat for $550. The 340 is going on my Baja.

It has a separate belt for the water pump.

25mm is the max and it sits the stock tire size about even with the fender.

Which RPM issues are you referring to?

I thought about doing a drain outside but I put the vent too high for it to drain. I may just put a 5 gallon bucket back there for it free drain into.

Thank you! I’m glad you found the video helpful!!

I absolutely agree! It’s not a bad job to do, but it’s also not something I would want to do often

What are you using the circuit breaker for? That will determine what amp you need to protect what you are powering

I have a basic installation, and i even not have a radio or cooler ,i juste want to concerve and protect all my fuses and avoid any electric problems , i have a old car from 1995

It depends on how much the draw is. If it safely draws 100A, you wouldn’t want a 70A breaker.

@@DariusBuildz thank you for answer.....one of the sellers advise me to put 60 Amp circuit breaker... realy i dont know witch one i schould choose. Any way, if we simulate a short circuit with this 70amp battery , we should give the same current level i.e. 70 amp. but when the car is running , it is impossible to have a short circuit because in the circuit we have a lot of current consumers, add to this the alternator produce not less than 50 Amp, so 50+70 is 120 Amp, and the biggest Fuse that i have is 40 amp. Conclusion 60 amp it should be enough, isn't?

Ahhh. Must not have been that important 😆

Yes. I have one layer of dynamat and a layer of dynaliner behind the speaker. Helps with mid bass a lot and also decreased the rattle in the door and mirror.

@@DariusBuildz Ima prob go with amazon basics cuz im cheap. So you removed the sytaroam on the door panel and replaced that with the new liner basically? Did you add any to the door frame itself.

I put it on the door skin, not under the door panel.

I don’t want to pay almost $200 for the upgraded hood, but I also can’t just add a bolt in there bc it won’t open. So I’m going to play around with some ideas, make a few brackets and see what I can come up with.

@@DariusBuildz yeah I don't think it's worth it either. Lmk what you come up with bc I'm planning to get the same model this month

Im probably going to go to lowes, see if they have one and try to copy that hinge and make one, lol

what little water it traps yes. It probably can only hold a few ounces of water.

it seems like the 1.5L may only have 1 belt, from my limited research.

Im glad that it has inspired people! The 340 is probably going to end up on my Baja, so thats going to be a scary ride in the woods, lol

I did it with flexible silicone based sealant, mind you used screen clamps and lefr it for 24h to dry.

@@mastacrx yes Sir. Thank you

@@burns985 No problem👍

Some people have used silicon with great success. I have also used E6000 glue as well.

Im glad people are still using it as a guide and reference! If you have trouble getting the stretch to fit water pump belt on, look up the zip tie trick!

I had thought about building the 340 until I saw the prices on the parts! plus, 65 was plenty fast enough for me! I wish I had kept the DuroMax 440 I had!

Yes. The guy that bought the frame bought everything but the motor

Thanks! 🙏

I'll look into them for when I do the cx9 front brake upgrade.

The rotors I buy are $50 each, and were basically new except for the fact that the ebrake locked up on me eating my pads away. I rather save money, and support my local brick and mortar store by utilizing their services. And they turn very little material off of the rotor and the rotor has a minimal thickness as well so its all good. 👍

@@DariusBuildz Awesome

That wasn’t my first oil analysis. Even on the report it showed my previous results…

She has moved on to a new home.

Well, I don’t ride it and it was more of a shame to just let it sit in my shed

@@DariusBuildz yeah true

It was fun to build and even more fun to ride. But all my local buddies sold theirs and it’s no fun to ride alone. The father had just built him a mini bike and this was bought for the son, so I’m glad it went to someone that is going to continue making memories with it.

I will definitely miss it. But she is now making new memories and making someone else smile. I will probably end up putting the 340 on my Baja so stay tuned!

If I was running 2” screws it would be an issue, but it’s nothing back there in that void for some 1/2” self tappers to interfere with.

If you watched the video I point that out.

My buddy couldn’t hammer his out either.

@@DariusBuildz I got it eventually but man that thing was stubborn.

Corrosion or rust holding it in?

@@DariusBuildz I'm honestly not sure. The ball joint was the main component that needed to be replaced so i wonder if the damage might've had something to do with it. There was a little crud around the top of the ball joint but I didn't see any rust or anything when I finally got it out.

I’ve ran 25:1 to 32:1 and 28:1 has just ran better for me in NC. It’s some guys running 40:1 in their XT’s And MT’s.

@@DariusBuildz okay I live in Seattle and it’s always raining and kinda cold I’m currently waiting for my MT to get here and been seeing lots of different mixtures on videos. Thank you for the response

No problem! Make sure you follow the break in procedure and enjoy it!

🦸🏽‍♂️

I’m glad it’s helping people! A lot of this stuff is pretty simple but can be intimidating if you don’t know what’s going on. And please don’t crash the 6 😂. That might be a $10.99 fix instead of a $free.99 😂

I have a little bit more work to do and hopefully I’ll be hitting the trails this summer!

Glad it helped!

My wife’s car makes it about 1000 miles now before the oil light comes on and the check engine light comes on from low oil pressure. We are just waiting for a audible knock so that Kia will replace the engine under the warranty/ recall.

I did not prime my tensioner. This is the first I’ve heard of that. And it’s probably no torque specs bc it’s probably all but impossible to torque these down. Sometimes you have to do the German Torque Spec of Gudentite 😂. I have since went back to the OEM tensioner and belts after both gates belts broke on me.

I was taught early on to work and fix stuff since all the men in my family have 60’s and 70’s GM vehicles. It’s also made sense as I got older why so many people “neglected” their cars bc everything was so expensive to pay a shop. One thing I realized later in life through other people is that a shop will indeed rob you blind and most people just don’t know and have no reference and they can and will recommend stuff that doesn’t really need to be done, but they can make a quick dollar off of it. It’s really nasty if you thinking about how many unaware people they get everyday.

@@DariusBuildz I wished I was a guy then I might understand cars better! I agree, yes the will rip anyone they can off so sad.

As of today she is at 248,000 miles and I still enjoy driving this car everyday! The visors I got on eBay: ebay.us/AiqaJm

@@DariusBuildz wow that’s impressive! I saw a guy on here who had a 2016 6 and he had 358,00 go Mazda! Zoom zoom! 😂 thank you for the link 😃

You just admit, it looked like 💩 😂.

Yes. They have been fine. No complaints on the brightness. I have them on my 6 and on my Yukon.

No. It’s runs off of vacuum. It’s mechanical.

It’s whatever the stock 2.5 is. And I wasn’t racing to be competitive. It was $5 to race, so why not

I can def tell a difference with it on. It’s not life changing, but less input is needed when spirited driving commences lol

@@DariusBuildz next is springs and some nice shocks

Lowering a car makes all the difference for sure!

The tank draining shouldn’t affect your bags leaking down. If your bags are leaking down that between the manifold and the bag fittings

Solid advice and I’m glad you are enjoying it! Mazda had the option on the 2nd gen but I guess Mazda valued it out for the 3rd gen
