    I love mechanics who share their expertise for people like me, learning through youtube post and some by watching someone without them knowing what I be doing. Some men hate for women to do mechanic work. Thank you for posting this video because I believe my fuel pump relay has to do with part of the reason my 95 isuzu trooper isn't getting fuel pressure. I sure hope it's not the regulator.

  • @amandaenriquez8917
    @amandaenriquez8917 2 роки тому +4

    Thank you. You taught me more in this video and the last video All bout a relay, than either of the mechanics in my shop. Working on Vespas is similar and on a small engine scale. However the push to computer control everything has put a few more relays in the bikes and this video, you yourself are an extreme help. Thank you for these videos.

    Homie Hektor, I enjoyed your video on relay testing. I am not here to criticize in any way. You have taken something that in general is fairly complicated to most shadetree mechanics and explained it in a very understandable and clear manner. You didn't get into tons of detail that is not necessary yet you covered everything that is important. I am a new subscriber and look forward to watching more video's from you. Thank you for a job well done.

    Having an extra (known good) relay with the cover removed would be a great tool for troubleshooting. That's an awesome trick. A nice use of an amp meter too. Really good video Hektor.
