This has been on of the better UA-cam videos I've seen since 2015, just a quality how to and what not to do video nothing crazy edited just how to do the job, wonderful.
The string method is ingenious. Thank you!
Excellent video. All the tricky points are well explained and the solutions provided are cheap and effective.
Thanks mate that was very thorough and very helpful
Thank you Terrence great tutorial
It's called a Scrivit combination screw and rivet.
Thanks for posting this video.
Nice one, thank you 👍🏻
Stellar video, thanks
You're welcome.
Thanks!
Nice!!!!
Great video! Really creative and informative
I have a 2006 mazda 3 with 230,000 km
I was wondering whether it's worth it to keep it and keep fixing it or not
What would be your advice? And what was your experience with reliability?
My wheel bearings are starting to go bad, also the catalytic converter, and the car is consuming around 1 liter of oil every 7000 km
Also the right turn signal lever/switch started malfunctioning a couple of days ago (seem to be broken or stuck)
I like the car but I don't know if I should keep putting money in it.
Curious to know your opinion
Thank you for your comments about my video. As far as advice on keeping your car or not, unfortunately I am not qualified to give that advice, as I am not a mechanic.
@@terencewbird2410 your methods were so creative, I thought for sure you had experience as a mechanic or working in a similar field
It's always tough making a decision whether to continue spending money on an old car or to move on, but I like this car so I'll try to DIY what I can to keep the cost down and hopefully it'll workout in the end
How is your mazda 3 holding up if you don't mind me asking? And did you face any problems with it other than the wheel bearing?
Thank you very much..
Glad to help.
That’s great mate but where is it on the car????
I have two grey connections and can’t fit the disconnect insert on the outlet side any ideas
Justin, I just did this with my "off the car" set up. I severed the filter outlet pipe between the plastic connector and the filter housing with a pair of bolt cutters. I used a pair 24"/600mm long and there was just enough room for the jaws. The next size down I think would be ideal. The outlet pipe was squashed but not cut through but 6 or so movements back and forth and it separated. This allowed me to put two flat bladed jewellers screw drivers under the grey tabs. With the tabs up I used another small flat blade to push the outlet pipe out of the connector levering off the bead on the outlet pipe. I know it will be awkward on the car but it did work. Using bolt cutters does not leave any filings or fragments. Good luck, twb
My filter has 160k miles up on it..
Will this filter work for the 2.3 liter?
