About 12 minutes into the video I think I make some comments. As I am getting older, I am getting much to lazy detailing my cars. I had to do that professionally for a while, but I enjoy doing that less and less. I often show up with a dirtier vehicles on car shows than others. To me it is important that my cars are in good shape and driving them regularly is the most important thing. The less you use them, the more they start leaking. I replaced a lot of seals, but there is always an other tiny place where things are leaking. Those oil pressure sensors can cause big problems: I was diving in a long highway tunnel in Swizterland. Suddenly the oil lamp light up. I had to drive out of the tunnel before stopping. There was a pin hole in the original sensor and oil shot out like crazy. We replaced the sensor. My first on did last nearly sixty years, the replacement hardly three. (Replacement parts do not have the quality of the original stuff). It showed zero oil pressure. Luckily it was only the sensor. Fun fact is that both sensors gave up nearly in the same spot! let me watch on.
Those two Little diaphragms slip out and cause a no fuel situation as well I figured it out on my 62 CDV so I permanently fixed mine by tapping a slight gash in the pump itself where the diaphragms sit in so they don’t pop out anymore
In my 65 Bonneville I replaced the fuel pump twice already. At least yours is not as hidden as mine. I have two in my trunk now. That means I will never have to replace it again. Hopefully. The last time I replaced it it was not the pump that caused problems, but the "sack" on the fuel sender unit that was somehow blocked. To reach it we had to cut out the trailer hitch that some guy in California hat put in the late Sixties. And instead of bolting on the car this idiot had welded it on the car. My Bonneville ran only a few miles more than this Cadillac and has it's original paint. I am warning you: My yellow paint was polished to many times and in some spots you start seeing the undercoat a bit. So I can only wipe it carefully by hand. Those cars are original only once.
The Chemical Guys hyper wax is phenomenal! Also known as their ceramic coating.
I'll have to try it!

The detailing is
pretty impressive. Wonder how Chemical guys ceramic coating will work on her?
All those times I parked next to you and I never heard it run! It sounds so good in this video! Were you able to get everything sorted?
Yup! Soon as I got home
