Great video. I always forget the dang wiper blades until it’s raining! Good advice and love the red shorts do you still have those? Haha!
@@theholybeast2857 Thank you so much. Glad you found it helpful. LOL...no, I would never fit in those these days. :-) Thanks for watching. Cheers, Mike
On top of that…I regularly hose off the engine to rinse away dirt and grime and keep it clean…makes working on it much better..plus being able to spot leaks easily and I won’t forget to mention …change the horn fluid and check those muffler bearings…😂😂
I agree 100%. Always nice to work on a clean engine. Yes, good point about being able to spot leaks. Thanks for watching, and sharing your tips. Hope you'll check out some of my other videos. Cheers, Mike
this video is very interesting ❤️
So glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching. Cheers, Mike
@@RoadTripTravel hahaa! I'm learning English, so there might be some grammar mistakes. I hope you will understand what I say 🥰
@@RainBeat23r44 Very cool. Yes, no problems at all. ;-)
Im not heading out on a road trip or anything, but I’m about to be living out of my car and doing DoorDash. I figure it’s similar enough to do all this to future proof it for the next year or half a year
Thanks for watching!
If you are going to be living in your car and working out of it maintenance is going to be critical for your survival. I would recommend learning about your vehicle as much as possible and staying on top of ALL maintenance.
You had me until you said Fram
Sorry you feel that way. Thank you for watching though. Cheers, Mike
