    On the passenger side at the 3:20 mark on the video you talk about the 2 nut trick to pull the 2 studs out.
    Are these studs tapered or threadedHow does that work?

    Did you remove anything else on the passenger side? I pulled the studs and fuel filter but the cover is still very trapped

      You just have to hold it perfectly, ac can cause complications if you have that.

    Hey man, love the channel. I have an 81 nissan pickup , I have a few questions on. First, can you show me how to install an RPM gauge ? Also, I'm In an area that gets hot, so I installed a low temp thermostat. What are your opinions on running it at 160° vs 180° because at 180 it was at the halfway mark but I would reach 60 or 65 mph on the freeway with 110°F outside and the gauge would go up to 3/4ths of the way up and I got scared I was going to blow the engine at that temp. Any thoughts on it, let me know. Thanks in advance.

      I would make sure your radiator and cooling system are in good working order and I would check with a real temp gauge that gives degrees or infrared, I have ran 720 all over in 110 degrees F or hotter up hill and down and cooling system is rock solid with a 180 tstat, personally I think 160 will just be hiding a problem.

      @Captain720 yea, I was thinking I needed a new water pump. Thanks for the video on the water pump, now I feel a tad more confident I can take it on myself, but still leaning towards letting a mechanic do it. 😅😅😅😂😂 I just needed a bit of time to save
