. Do you mean the one way valve that attaches to the rocker cover? According to everything I could find, the part that was discussed in the video is the sensor, and you can certainly clean the connectors inside. If that belief is incorrect I am always happy to be put right.

The sensor is the bit on the right with the blue Denso sticker on it, it comes off with the bracket (you have to remove the bracket from the firewall). The connection that pulls out to the left in your hand is just the electrical connection that is attached to the vacuum hose that runs into the intake manifold. These can get eroded over time but being an electrical connector it is either working (ON) or not working (OFF). And there is no in between. You’re generally right though I do believe that it is next to impossible to clean these sensors as they’re all sealed inside and even waterproof so any cleaning product shouldn’t be able to penetrate. I just tried on my 1998 Celica (7AFE engine same as Corolla) and it didn’t work. I think it’s best generally just to replace the sensor as a whole if anybody is having issues

I appreciate your kind comment.

So glad that I could help, thank you for your kind comment.

Thanks for that.

Thank you.

Apologies for the slow reply. The simple answer is that I do not know as I have never owned one. I have been told that the 3 litre engine in the later models, including the Colorado, were basically the same motor but I have nothing to back that up.

@johnvienta7622 I can say the gearbox one is the same, yet to check the transfer case one

@@lautarogatti . Thanks for that.

Gracias...............No hay problema.

I appreciate your kind comment.

The vehicle in the video is still going strong in Brisbane and is driven by my daughter in law who does not believe in being kind to her cars. Do you think that there might be an associated issue with brake master or slave cylinder? I thought that I had a major problem with my Rodeo but discovered that the internals of the slave cylinder had failed, with the only clue being that the brake fluid was getting so dirty quite quickly after bleeding the system. Hope that you get it sorted out.

@@johnvienta7622 You're right. Hyundai is low maintenance and packs a few surprises. I was gonna drain it again and put the old one back in if I hadn't sprayed the weeds with it. I didn't torque the fill plug properly the last time and had to top it up after noticing oil leaks on the driveway but air may have gotten in. Got another 2.5l from Supercheap to use up credits and will replace again on weekend. Can't answer the brake cylinder association. Didn't know they would be associated. Someone who appears authoritative on GL4 v 5 said that it does not 'attack' as in corrode but stains the yellow metals. Ill edit his channel in @GearBoxVideo

Is that supposed to mean something?

Thank you for you comment.

Love the magnet idea... Really pleased that it helped you. All the best.

Thank you.

Thanks for your comment.

We are everywhere mate, all the best.

I am happy to hear that it worked. When I made this video I thought that it might get a few hundred views but it appears that the problem with the nylon plug is very common. I appreciate your kind words.

Happy to help, thanks for the kind comment.

I am happy to be mistaken but I do not recall saying anything about pre-filling the fuel filter housing. I thought that I was quite clear about priming the fuel system before attempting to start the engine.

⁠@@johnvienta7622the part about draining into a clean container to re use. Im assuming now you meant pouring it back into the tank? That’d be fair enough. I misinterpreted that

@@jakob31448 . No problem at all, I got a fright thinking that I had given incorrect information. Yes, I recall saying that if the fuel was clean it could be used again.. Thanks for your comment.

.... It could be the brake light sensor itself. No expert on those things but try pushing the plunger rod in with your finger while someone looks at the brake lights. If they do not go off that is where I would be looking.

@@johnvienta7622 thank you

Do you mean that you tried to get it to fit inside the small hole where the nylon insert was? If you place the adhesive pad on the metal and cover the hole it should be fine. The object is to activate the retractable pin at the end of sensor.

Four cylinder engine, 4 plugs.

Happy that it helped you.

Thank you for your kind comment.

I have sold that vehicle so no more videos, sorry.

No worries. Glad it helped.

Stick with it, but have someone ready to give you a hug afterwards as you will need it.

@@johnvienta7622 lol that doesn't bode well at all!

@@flyingpictures1100 .... Plugging in the wiring loom was the frustrating part. I think that I said in the video about rounding up a random child to climb into the space under the steering wheel. And get a good torch or light so you can see what you are doing.

No problem. I hope that it helped you.

Glad that it helped you. All the best.

Thanks for the comment.

Thank you for your comment.

Thanks mate, pleased that it helped you.

It did not stop the leak completely but did have an effect as previously it was actually spraying out. I spoke to the people who make it and they said that another coat may be required but it has not been empty since so we have not had the opportunity. I would probably go heavier along the actual crack if I did it again.

Thanks for that. Have been tossing around a few ways to go. Getting a liner installed or even dropping a poly tank inside as I have just a tin roof cover. Still not sure what to do. Would be frustrating to clean it out and patch up and still have leaks. Thanks for posting. You cleaned up your tank really well before the seal. Not an easy task

@@tonyfletcher1718.. I looked at liners but was worried that the concrete tank may be unsound. My issue was that one section was a bad pour (about 28 years ago) and could fail and that is one of the things they discuss re inner linings. The concrete tank is pretty well a spare as we also have a poly tank but I prefer the water from the concrete. I have been told that concrete tanks can become unsafe when they are empty for a long time and have heard of them collapsing, so ask an expert re the idea of dropping the poly inside, although as you said you have a metal top. All the best.

Thanks again John, you have been a great help. I may have a go doing what you did. My tank has about 200mmof water and mud in the bottom so I'll have to bale that I suppose. I was amazed how clean and dry you got the bottom of your tank. I'll need to clean mine to get the full picture. I have about 3 vertical cracks and 1 horizontal. They all just weeped or dripped with moss on the outside. I realised the tank was empty when I saw the moss was dead. Its been leaking for over 10 years but never emptied before but with the current lack of rain in West Gippsland it wasn't getting any topups. Thanks again for posting your video

@@tonyfletcher1718.. Believe me mate, there was a lot of work involved in getting the sludge out before the video was done. We scooped a lot out and then used a little transfer pump with a hose running out through the bung at the bottom, then mopped up the rest.

I know the feeling..... Thanks for the comment and all the best to you.

@@johnvienta7622 I wanted to revisit this as I just completed the job as I got the things today, not exactly the same but same same but different. Holy shit SO much easier than what I was trying to do!, start the car, jam the pedal clean with iso alcohol install and done.. took me longer to get my fat ass on the floor and back up than do the fix. Kudos to you good Sir and I raise this drink to you!.

@@gatekeeper88 .... I hope you enjoyed the drink... I agree that sliding into the well is not a lot of fun, and getting out not much easier.

Thanks for the kind comment.

Got it off Ebay. The item number was 354516651747. Seller was sign 9890. Blower fan motor heater fan Holden Rodeo TF. Hope that helps.

@@johnvienta7622 thanks for that mate

Where are you that it is already the 28th??? That is an impressive bit of work, and I especially enjoyed the skillful work involved in removing the rough surface.

Australia. It's the nob with the reverse lift before engage into the left forward position. The only thing is it doesn't make the rest of the car, especially the nut behind the wheel, any better. Cheers

Thanks for the comment. Tricky little thing isn't it.

Thanks mate, thanks for the kind comment and all the best to you.

I have two videos about that job so hopefully it works for you. It appears from the comments that some of the vehicles have a slightly different set-up.

Good idea as there seems to be a big difference in the quality of the metal used for the flaps on different brands.
