You guys all worried about Ray leaving the blue towels in the intake. It's brilliant . When he starts the car the towels will be sucked into the cylinders . They'll get moved around in there awhile thus cleaning the bores, plugs, pistons and valves. They'll then blow out the exhaust and clean the converter and muffler which will extend their lives . I would have added a little brake cleaner to really shine things up .
😂😂
Darn! I was mentally composing something like this and you beat me to it. I turn over my king to you, sir!
He always pulls them out of
He always pulls them out of
and don't forget the blinker fluid tot complete the job. 😆 I have no doubt the towels are out.
Ray, you probably cut it off when editing but, you didn't show you taking the towels out and when you were placing the intake manifold back on you could see the towels still in there.
I just came to the comments to mention the same thing... I was wondering if he pulled them out.
11:44
😂🤣🤌
Yeah, I kept watching to see how far he got before realizing what he did...
@@BadBoyFLSTC the more he assembled the more nervous i got xd
Got to agree with others, I am impressed how you somehow keep track of all the hardware without using a parts tray. Great job Ray!!
keeping track of the parts is the easy part . working in such a small space is the total shit show .
Ray is messing with us (genius). Camera cut, right after he puts the plenum back on at 11:53 (to remove the towels) and at 27:43 a hint about removing towels. This is why I love this channel!
I ve spoken to all your friends wife unit teachers ext ( genius ) is a stretch.......folowed by breaking stuff and lots of 4 letter words lol
Keeping viewers engaged is not genius, it's Marketing 101. Anything that generates dialog is a plus for analytics.
The towel comment was about a different towel that he dropped, not the 4 towels in the intake
@@dwightyost1606 huh??? Your comment makes NO sense...
@@beccahetrick1469 at 27:43 he says, "Except for that blue towel that fell down there, was that comment relevant? Not in the slightest, but it's what came to mind". So I say, this comment was about the 4 towels.
Speaking of leaving towels inside intake ports...
I've quit using towels to block ports. Took me some time to accept the fact that they don't protect quite as well as one might think. Debris gets trapped into the folds and creases, and attempts to blow it out only blows it deeper into the towels. So when you remove the towels, that trapped stuff shakes out and down into the engine without you noticing.
Instead, I now use masking tape. Nice flat cover, nowhere for crap to hide from the air gun. Clean confident removal.
Yep, I use that cheap clear packing tape, stays on pretty good & it doesn't leave that sticky residue like the 3M good tape.🙂🍻🇺🇸
Regarding the shop towels in the manifold - i think good 'ol Ray is having a play with us. It had me fooled for a bit, but when you compare the quick shot at 1:13 you can see near the plastic pile and ladder and there are no towels, then at 28:20 you can clearly see a bunch of scrunched up towels...... Nice try Ray!
I was just about to point that very same fact out. Good shot at 29:17 as well.
We've seen Ray pretend to use an overly large hammer to drive in a bearing race or a seal just to mess with us quite a few times already. I love Ray's sense of humor, he's quite a character.
Yep, sneaky edit @11:55.
Indeeeeeed. Viewer engagement plays a big part in driving "the algorithm" promoting this video on the platform, and simply put: few things drive engagement better than triggering all of the "YER DOIN IT RONG" rage trolls to get them to comment. Ray knows this, and handles it *expertly*. Everyone commenting about the towels thinks they're helping Ray out, and in fact they are, but probably not quite how they think. It's a marvel to behold.
...and now I'm part of the engagement statistics, too! Woooooo!
What you see at 1:13 is where the water pump mates with the engine. I agree that he's more than likely trolling us to drive engagement but he has been careful enough to edit out any potential evidence of the switcheroo.
the reason for a new tensioners is for the new bearing wheel, just swap the bearing wheels. Just unscrew the 12 mm nuts and swap in the new one.
Was thinkin' that too....
yah thats what i was saying to
Old tensioner has a spring to tention the belt. Thats as old and worn out as the old belt. Not worth the bodge when it easily can cause bent valves when the old spring fails.
@@tschuuuls486 he's referring to the bearing part not the actual tensioner
Part 4; Removing towels from intake.
I love how Ray keeps us guessing, and doesn't blindly "like" every comment. I saw the towels on the floor at the end.
Gotta love it to see a pro mechanic make his own custom tools. Normally those kind of tools are so cheap it doesn't pay to make my own, but I can see why you don't want to wait for a special tool to arrive while the lift is occupied.
If anyone were on the threshold of deciding between buying an Electric Vehicle or a Hybrid, they would certainly be instantly convinced upon seeing this video. Make no mistake, your work was brilliant. But FOUR days of repair? The complexity, tightly packed nightmare leaves me both in awe of your talents and patience and astounded by the monumentally overcomplicated design/execution of this ridiculous kludgeharp. I really hope you were well paid for your time, as this is four days of your life you sill never see again.
Hybrid cars are akin to an attempt to be half pregnant. Sheer folly.
Nice video Ray! The family was discussing your bolt tightening in this vid. We saw two tiger tights, five bobcat tights and three domestic house cat tights at a minimum. The cam shaft bolts were close to elephant tight.
I'm gonna call the 92ft-lb camshaft bolts LION TIGHT
To me as a non-American, the feline units of torque are much more comprehensive than "foot-pounds", "imperial barleycorn-esterlings" or whatever.
But as a fan of hydropneumatic Citroëns, I have to say the French take the cake in being annoying. While they actually use Newton-meters in their technical documentation, they state all numbers in "deca-Newton-meters", and then reverse the notation to "deca-meter-Newtons". "damN". Just to be different. Sigh.
It's like a fun little Easter Egg in Ray's videos! !!
Blue towel saga... LOL
i would have swapt the new bearing onto the old tensioner bracket and been good to go
Ray, if you Trolled us, it was a Masters Level Trolling, I had to check rewind, and run through different parts to check if you had actually left the Blue towels in the intake ports....
Well done Sir....
🤣😂🤣😂
But he did... They were clearly still in there.
Unless he paused the camera and went back....
you left your shop towels in the intake manifold
And that would be bad..........
I believe you've fallen for a classic Ray troll move.
Watch to the end.
Frankly, on this ridiculous Rube Goldberg device, they might improve performance.
I think you fooled us thinking that the towels are still in the intake manifold. However l'm impressed you remembered the screws without using a parts tray.
Great videos, Ray. This is why I never complain about the cost to do a timing belt and water pump at my independent Lexus/Toyota shop. Not something I would take on myself.
Was wondering what a jon like this would cost. Lots of work and time.
@@kultingen For my ‘05 Landcruiser it’s about $1700 using OEM parts at my independent (not cheaper) shop. Every 100k miles so almost due for my 3rd timing belt change.
I’m with you Ray. No one can give more than 100%. People make me mad when they say they’ve given 110%. I still don’t know how you manage to put everything back the way you do.
How do you keep track of all the nuts and bolts, amazes me, i've learned a lot from your videos.
Why do you think he records the videos? So if he forgets, he’s got a visual reference. 😜
He takes the component out and puts the nut or bolt in the wholes that hold them on
ray has been handling nuts all his life.
@@SupremeRuleroftheWorld "ray has been handling," "his," "nuts all his life."
All the blue towel experts ignoring the obvious cut at 11:54. You got bamboozled 😆
Well I see I’m not the only one who was yelling wait don’t forget the shop towels 😂
I hope he pulled a troll 🤞 hate to see him have to redo all that work!!
Those engine covers are only good for hiding where the squirrels make their nest in the winter. Great Job Ray!
Ray, consider marking the backing panel that was in the way with paint as well on the reference marks aligned with the cam gear spline. When the entire top of the gear spline is painted, along with the original belt And engine body or backing panel, you will have a precise, 3 point reference for each gear/pulley to belt and engine body relationship, eliminating any potential placement position error when reassembling. In the future, maybe an old thick blanket placed on windshield will help prevent potential windshield damage in case fastener slippage occurs when the socket accidentally rolls off the cam gear bolt. Also consider the tremendous amount of Static friction that must be overcome to loosen super tight fasteners such as the cam pulley/gear bolts. Usually 4 to 5 times the torque spec value for tightening a bolt must be exerted to loosen it. In theory, the cam bolt required 360-450 ft/lbs of torque to pop loose. This affixed characteristic is known as Static friction and is much greater than the Kinetic friction required when tightening the bolt to specs. That is why a spark is produced when you observe a slow-motion video of a very tight lug nut that is loosened on a large truck tire with a 6 ft. cheater bar, for example. I believe FBM made such a video that displays this phenomena. I realize every bit of revenue stream is vital to your success at this time, when possible, consider passing on hybrids and beamers, these types of vehicles eat into your profit margin with unforeseen, required procedures; and sometimes, you end up working on difficult situations for little to nothing. Good Luck, Ray!
For the windshield a piece of cardboard may work as well. Important is to not hit the glas on the edge, otherwise it will shatter even if covered.
It's ok to leave the shop towels in the intake ports. They're blue, so you know they're good.
Yes, of course Ray took the blue paper towels out, it's how he generates way more comments, which helps his video out 😂
No, unfortunately he did not.
@@mikekraan823 I think your right there that video had no cuts in it at all to suggest he removed them before bolting on the plastic bit . UMMMMM i hope he did remove them or is he playing with our minds .
@@richarddavison9137 Watch very closely at the lower side of the intake just as he is setting it in place after the new gaskets. You can just see one of the shop towels still in the intake port.
@@richarddavison9137 there’s definitely a cut lol
@@mikekraan823 yep i see it
just wondering why you don,t replace cam and front crank seals when doing t-belt ? ?. to me it,s like replacing t-belt and not putting in a new water pump
I haven't finished watching yet, but I love that you troll your own audience. There is NO WAY you would have forgotten to pull the blue towels from the in take port's. Lmao
I suspect that too, because exactly at the point where he puts that cover over the towels, there's a cut in the video (cam was turned off). How long, no one knows... but he could have done that on purpose to see how many YT COMMENT CLICKS it would generate. AKA, he trolled us! LOL
My bet is that he know, did that on purpose to tease and removed them during the cut.
If he doesn't comment on here about that, then I bet that in the next video, he's going to PRETEND to be upset for leaving the towels in, saying that he has to take the whole thing apart, then gets his wrench right there and does a *GOTCHA* and giggles.
What would be really cute with something like that, is to have the entire family standing there in a line and when he pops his head back up, joins the line, they all look right at the camera and altogether say,
*GOTCHA!*..... giggles a plenty!
@@BlondieSL Yep, one crossfade edit in there as he goes for the intake manifold bracket.
11:43 its hovering over and theres no edit, you can tell on the left side the towel is still in the hole. he puts it all the way back together and never realizes it
@@bradhaines3142 Yep , we see the towels in there at 11:43....the edit comes after...allowing him to stop the camera, remove the manifold, remove the towels and replace the intake manifold...do the crossfade edit and resume the video from there.
Troll at 27:35
11:20 "Presenting the 'Trolling-the-Trolls' portion of the video." 👍
So I did a bunch of timing belts on V-6 Toyota/Lexus vehicles back in the day, and after the first half dozen I found an excellent tool that allows removal of the water pump without removing the inner timing belt shield. It's called a 'plasma cutter' and it gets that bottom 1/4 inch of tin out of the way in short order. My boss was nervous the first time, but once he saw how much time was saved and there wasn't any collateral damage, and neither of us could justify that area being of any importance he gave the green light for all future use of that procedure.
If it Saves Time and does not hurt anything, I say Get Ur Done...
As a former dealership line mechanic back in the dark ages, I often think, as I work on a home car repair, “There is no way they do it like this at the dealership. There must be a shortcut!”
Your statement is EXACTLY why I do my own work, If that piece of the cover backing plate was not necessary then why did the Toyota engineers design it that way? I'll bet you still charged the full book time on these jobs while you damaged the customer's cars to save you some time.
I’m not sure why you wouldn’t remove it anyway, you should be replacing the cam seals while you’re there
@@jeffsullivan3101 A: If you were half the mechanic you think you are, you'd know engineers put a lot of unnecessary shit on cars. B: the shop I was in didn't change by book time.
Good job Ray. That towel was relevant. Everyone thinks you left the towels in the intake
When Ray puts the blue gasket on the intake manifold and flips it into position, at 11:45 you can see blue towels still in the lower intake, op’s!
You mean "oops"?
@@beccahetrick1469 yes, darned auto spell! Thanks
saw the guy with the Audi video, end of the video, "what did you do" "I broke it charged you a bunch of money". I Laughed my Butt off, Classic Ray Humor. Well done
Holy crap, you used an actual torque wrench today. Alert the media!
A friend once forgot to remove rags from the cylinders when he did a head gasket job. It was one of those jobs where the car had to absolutely positively go the next morning. After completing the job he couldn't remember pulling the rags out. He turned the engine by hand. Sure enough it was binding. He said he tried burning the rags through the intake and exhaust ports. They just smoldered. He ultimately pulled the head to remove the rags. He finished the job in the wee hours of the next morning so the customer would have their car. 30 years later he is still known as "Rags".
Wife unit left you unsupervised and you forget to remove shop towels 😂
Hi Ray just finished 3 don’t know how you remember everything I really enjoyed it and as always you and your families be safe 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Whoa, Ray, did you forget to pull the blue shop towels out when you installed the intake? At 11:45 it looks like they were still in there when you installed it. I hope you see this message before you start it up!

@@demmarcsxr you should get to SpecSavers
@@demmarcsxr they are, but that's not what we're talking about. Rewind to when he put the intake on, the towels are still clearly there
Some of you are so slow you didn't catch the blue towel comment at the end. Lmao. Great job as always Ray.
You do not need to remove the cam drives or the top timing cover. Simply loosen the cover; you can access the bolts securing the cover through the cam drives (rotate as needed).
That's the difference between someone who knows how it's done and someone who doesn't.
@@module79l28did not use genuine parts, did not read manual, the inner cam moved several degrees and bounced back due to non holding mickey ray's tool, valves bent possibility already, another wonderfully hack job.
@@forgetfulme1719 Nope, the 1MZ is a non interference engine, so at worst it will run like crap but not damage the valves.
@@BurkaLifter it is not 1mz, google shows it is interference, call ur Lexus dealer if in doubt. the valves hitting the piston was holding the torque not his mickey tool, bent valves- means he bought the Lexus.
@@jeffsullivan3101 400h not using 1MZ, it is interference.
As usual you have kept me glued to the screen. There are so many comments I really don't know if you will ever see this. I have a question about a question. Please people...don't hate me. I'm desperate. I've exhausted every resourse I know. So...am I permitted to ask you a 'mechanical' question? -Thanks
Leaving the blue towels in the intake is Ray's revenge for people making fun of his need to always have a security blanket on him at all times.
pretty clear in 11:47 there are shop towels in the head. I don't see that he ever removed and went to bolt the manifold on. Be interesting if he doesn't catch and starts the car. I'd be interested in seeing what happens.
@@charlesspurlock119 and if you can't see the super evident cut between installing the intake and actually putting the bolt in we are clearly missing a minutes or two where the cut is.
is comment about removing shop towel and saying this comment is irrelevant at the end give it away he trolling
Water pump R&R procedures on B/RB Mopar engines:
1: drain radiator.
2: remove radiator shroud and upper hose (optional).
3: remove 4 bolts holding water pump to water pump manifold.
4: remove water pump and fan.
5: remove fan from old water pump and install on new water pump.
6: reverse procedures 1 thru 4.
7: fill with fresh coolant and check for leaks.
When I worked for a Dodge dealership in the mid 90's I couldn't believe that when the new Neon came out that they were using a plastic intake manifold. I thought that would never last without cracking
I had a 98 Neon R/T. The intake manifold is about the only thing that didn’t break.
Wish I lived closer to your shop...I'd have you do my intake gasket on my 2003 pontiac grand am GT...shop told me today that it's gonna be 3 weeks before they can get to it...they do good work but they always take forever
I didnt see those Blue towels get taken out, Holy Shit man, That would kill all his hard work on this job if he had to take it all apart again !
There's a cut in the vid right after he sets the head cover on and when the vid returns (who knows how long after) the head "moves" a bit, meaning that during the cut, he did move it. so I think that he's just doing at GOTCHA! LOL
@@BlondieSL Possibly. He's a slick one!
This guy is all over the place and forgets things constantly. I wouldn't want him working on my car, He's a hack at times
@@willsrestorations If you think that he's a hack, they why do you keep watching his videos?

Trolls gotta be trolls... sheesh!
@@willsrestorations you're wrong. This guy is a superstar!
I was impressed with how clean the front of the motor was! Really clean and must've taken a LOT of Break Kleen. Somebody might say it's an engine and not a motor. If so, I used to ride an enginecycle a lot.
Brake, not break
@Becca Hetrick Bräk, not brake. Bräkleen.
Though I've often wondered why an AFAIK American company (CRC) would name their product using a letter that requires at least rudimentary knowledge of Scandinavian/German pronunciation, considering most English speaking people don't seem to have a clue of how words and letters are supposed to be pronounced in other languages.
Still, they managed to bodge it by mixing in the uniquely English "ee"-spelling of the "i" sound.
I do hope that you ended up going back to remove the handtowels from the intake Ray. I did see some blue towl lying aroound, but it mostly looked oily so I don't think it was the towel in question.
I’ve been fixing cars since ‘83. It’s always been called a wiper transmission (assembly) yes each arm is called a linkage
I think the radiator heat has something to do with breaking those connectors at the front with the fan blasting it there!
No thats all the brake clean .that shit distroys plastic and rubber for sure🤣
There probably made of abs plastic, which degrades in the presence of uv light, the ones at the back are more shaded. This can be a big problem in places with strong sunlight such as Florida.
In answer to the breaking clips, they are probably abs plastic, this degrades and embrittles in the presence of uv light. The rear clips are protected by the intake manifold and so don’t suffer as much as the front. In areas with strong sunlight the effect is more noticeable, this is why it’s not such a problem in northern Scotland where I live, but is the case in Florida.
Level 100 troll would be when he restarts the engine, the GoPro is behind the car, and a bunch of blue towels fly out of the tailpipe :D
Ray, have you ever considered using a light film of Hylomar (the non-hardening "blue goo"), on gaskets like that water pump, to hold them in place during assembly?
Is good stuff, invented by Rolls-Royce in the 1960's to seal against synthetic lubricants used in jet engines.
A few well placed drops of super glue for me.
@@572Btriode it was also used extensively but the British military on their vehicles
Way back in the 80s in auto shop we were taught on some gasket surfaces that permitted ( gasket surrounding bolt holes) we could use a si gle strand of sewing thread, not bound up tightly cutting into the gasket ,to hold gaskets in place while installing

Good morning @Rainman Ray's Repairs
The great zip tie debacle of 2023 many lost souls over that one lmao. That being said fantastic work ray. Ps what are those shallow swivel sockets. It maybe cool to do a whats in the toolbox video easy content and im sure people would love it.
Those zip ties are a bit iffy in my opinion, but I'm not there and have never tested it so I can't say for sure if it works or not. But there looks like at least one of the connectors has been replaced. The connector at the rear right (left in the video) is another color than the rest. So I don't think it's totally unthinkable that a clip has broken off before. Or are the five black ones replacements? I certainly don't know.
Having worked in a factory that made wire harnesses I can say that the hard plastic parts are engineered to be connected easily during assembly. Disassembly is not considered in their design.
I'm glad I'm not the only person that listens to like the same 10 songs over and over again
Hey Ray!! I hope you review this video. You left the towels in the manifold!!!! I first thought it was a joke but now I'm not so sure.
Good morning Ray. Another happy day to watch another video from you.
V engines general and especially V-engines mounted sideways seems to be projects of the devil . I like to make most repairs and services by myself in the parking lot so you convinces me every time I look at your videos to stuck to a straight 4 with as few complications as possible. 👍😀👍
Transverse V engines are evil but there are many cars with inline engines that are impossible to work on.

OH MY GOSH RAY!!! YOU ARE 110% RIGHT!!! Have a great day too my friend.
Paper towel still in intake. If the pulley on the new tensioner is the same size, I would just swap the pulley and forge ahead.
You got me with the towels stuffed into the intake manifold! I'm enjoying your videos, Ray. New subscriber.
One day you are going to learn to use Toyota OEM parts when doing major work on them. They don't cost much more and here's the real kicker - they last, they fit and don't cause come backs.
he will say, warranty is out, time for 2nd belt, seals, pulleys...
I saw the shop towels at 11:45 still in the intake ports. Hope you got them out later before starting the engine.
Regarding those shop towels - you wouldn't be trolling us, would you Ray? 😁
400h is 3MZ, interference engine, the makeshift tool not holding the inner cam tight, the tensile strength of valves hitting on piston when torquing, that is why u see the cam recovered by turning backwards several degrees. valves possibly bent already due to 90 ft lb..
11:23...you left the shop towels in the intake !
Normally video starts my day.... tonight ends my day.... great video Ray
Ray, did you remove the blue towels from the intake?
So much more satisfying to put parts ON...like you accomplished something.
Well Ray, you've got us all sitting on the edge of our seats like some who shot JR (so I'm old) cliff hanger. Did you or did you not remove the blue shop towels from the intake ports before you installed the intake? Thanks.
...or did Kristin put them back when Ray was not watching?
Just another old geezer
Nice job Ray making that tool.
Man it sure looked like you left the blue towels in the intake manifold
Always with the best songs playing in the background.
How is your son's injury healing? Always praying for you and your family!

Ray are you trying to get some of your subs to do a spit take with their coffee? OR are you trying to get them turning purple screaming at their screens about leaving shop towels in the intake? LOL Either way, well done.
Ray probably took the paper towel out of the intake at 11:55 when the video took a scene jump
Yep , will be waiting to find out , if Ray pulled a Master Troll with the shop towels or not ⁉
Bolt torque is a dynamic reading, ie if the bolt isn't moving as the wrench clicks or otherwise indicates it isn't truly torqued. Static torque doesn't count.
Ray i think you forgot to pull out the towels out of the lower intake.
Maybe that's why it´s called "Repair gone Wrong"

My pet peeve saying is "same difference"....argued many times over that phrase lol.
The art of being a great mechanic is to talk to the parts you are installing and get the correct answer.
MIke, you need to ease up on the Brake Cleaner & other similar solvents.
only parts talkin' to me are seized up tensioners & dry/loose tappets.
Sometimes the occasional exhaust flange. Dry CV joints too.
The CV whisperer strikes again
12:08 seeing the blue shop towels in the engine is starting to give me heart palpitations...
When you get the towels out of the intake, you can put the rear cam gear on the right way. You have it backward.
How so. I watched the previous video and he marked both gears and the belt with neon pink marker and he put both gears back the way they came out. How is it backward? I’m not a mechanic, so it appears to be correct and not backwards.
@@onebridge7231 there is a flange on the engine side of the gear, the rear one IS on backwards. or not... just rewatched myself... he correct dammit
They are correct. Paint pen marks prove it.
It was reassembled exactly how it was removed. It it possible the run flange opposite sites to provide tracking control?
When I did plugs on my 3.5L highlander the rear coil clips did fine. The front clips all broke the same way. I thought it was odd too.
I love your video's ray keep up the great work
That wobbly bit is a game changer
Totally agree! I bought a set a long while back and this summer, when I was doing some work on the car, I thought, I should get some of those wobbly thingies..... LOL.. .yes, I totally forgot that I got some.
sigh... memory is the 1st thing to go... you do NOT want to know what the 2nd thing is.... sighhhhh.

But seriously, before buying "another" set, I had to search for something in one of my tool drawers and found them. LOL

@@BlondieSL you know what the tool name of them is?
It's called a universal extension
Have shop towels been accidentally left in the intake Ray, or are you playing with us with clever editing?
I've noticed that Toyota's Self-Demolishing Clips are usually found in the parts of the engine compartment that are most accessible for cleaning via the use of aggressive detergents and degreasers. I suspect that the plastic gets brittle because of this. In my experience, the nastier, filthier and greasier the underhood environment of one of these, the more likely it is that the clips will not break. (Some other makes are like this, too.)
Wow, watched all of this particular vehicle's vid's, what a labour intensive job and a very awkward car to work on. The last water pump I replaced (many,many) years ago was on a mk3 Cortina (UK), it was an absolute doddle compared to this. We were on our way to Devon from Liverpool and the pump decided to give up the ghost. Back then Ford parts were easily available at many stores, purchased one and completed the exchange in around 90 minutes in the stores car park then back on the road. I could do most anything to a OHV engine but not these newer cars, totally lost with them.
Because they're pieces of junk all the plastic for show tells you what you need to know
Yes old ford's was easy cortina / escorts
I didn't see the pcv hose go back on under the manifold, love your videos Ray
Excellent work! How do you keep track of the hardware?
And just when you thought you were done 🤦♂️🤦♂️
Happens to the best of us👍👍
Awaiting part 4 now😂
Didn't take Shop blue rags in the engine out 11:45 minute
ray you got to have patience of a saint i Think that was the hardest job i ever seen you take on
The REMOVED blue paper towels can be seen at 28:55 sitting on the parts pile (Right side of screen)
The dielectric that you use is supposed to go around the spark plug but not the connection. It blocks the spark that's why they call it dielectric.
Yes, you 100% right.
Rays viewer troll level = Master.
Rheeeeee! Shop towels! Rheeeeee!
@@Springfield-eo8jl I was laughing so hard. I had to look at the comments and laughed even harder lol
@@just-another-guy there is clearly an edit cut right after he sets the manifold on the engine.🤫 Also at 28:55 you can see the torn blue towels stacked on each other sitting on the parts pile on the right of the screen😱
@@Springfield-eo8jl he also mentions it when he picks up the towel from the bay after doing the plastic covers lol.
"except for that blue towel that fell down there was that comment relevant not in the slightest" Love it
Did you forget to pull out the paper towel out of the intake?
110% = "go the extra mile" = "above and beyond the call"
