Hi, I am Kirk The Mechanic, and I have been working in the automotive industry for over 32 years.
The last 14 years as a self-employed Mobile Auto Mechanic. I like helping people get back on the road, without ripping them off. I started taking things apart around 5 years old, and then they started going back together at the age of 8.

Easily Replace Your Portable Electric Spa Pump Motor!
I chose not to remove the idle air adjustment screw and clean the port or the idle air screw because I have been cleaning small engine carburetors since I was 13 years old. Now at 50, I have never found that to be the problem. Messing with that adjustment can sometimes be very difficult to get right again, especially for someone who needs to watch a video to get it to work. That's why I didn't go through that whole process. To those who keep commenting about it, if you've ever made a successful UA-cam video, you know that talking about all this reduces the retention rate, and everyone clicks out of the video. So please, do your thing. If you find my video unsatisfactory, then please make your own. It's that simple.
Gracias por el video es muy ilustrativo y de mucho aprendizaje. Thank You for video
do you have videos of the other actuators?
No, I do not.
There’s screw behind the metal piece how you take that out??
I would suggest maybe an extension with 1/4 inch wobbly I do apologize as I stated in the video there were some missing mounting pegs so I only had one screw holding this customers in
Any suggestions on how to get the air jet out? Mine is stuck and won't budge.
Yes!! Let it soak in carb cleaner, and make sure you get the fattest screwdriver you can in there to get a better grip. Good luck!
Awesomeness
Well done! 5 stars!!!!!!!!

I did as shown on video but now my truck won't start! It cranks but won't turn over. Now i get code 214 help
This error could be due to a hard fault or an intermittent condition. Possible causes include: Open or shorted harness, Damaged Camshaft Position (CMP) or Crankshaft Position (CKP) sensor, Faulty processor, and Wiring issue. Please check the wiring into the plugs of the ICM both of them. I have had the personal experience on of my own vehicle after doing this. One of the wires slipped out of the plug and caused all sorts of issues. Good luck.
