quick question. Planning to use the 1gzfe as a ratrod's engine. Can you please suggest what's a good Standalone ECU / engine management system that I can use for it?

Having done the plugs in my ez30 liberty twice now, I’d rather do the job on the v12, atleast then with all the time you spend you know the cars completely freshened up, rather than 4 hours (I know, super slow), just for 6 spark plugs.

That was such a big job, you should get a droid head made up for next time. "Roger Roger."

I think fuel on your Junk is the worse pain. I accidentally got some on me one time filling the tank up on my motorcycle. I had to race home and stand in a Cold shower for 2 reasons. 1 to cool down my junk and 2 to mask the tears streaming out of my eyes. LOL!

Nice job, hard to work on rare old cars with lack of parts. I’m curious did any of those electronics clips break when you unplugged them? Haha 😆 all 1990’s cars the clips break as soon as you touch the engine bay normally

Good car mate which year of model

Speaking of fuel on your arm remember the engine swap in Marty’s Subaru rs turbo wagon

Whenever you reuse hoses, and you have those deposits on them, get like 3 fist sized lemons, peel them, drop them in about ..eh ~2 liters of water boil them twice, and then put the hot water (not at 100c) in a container that can take the heat and fit those hoses, and drop the hoses in. Once the water is easy to handle, you can give them a rinse and the deposits should be gone (mostly for hardwater, but it does clean other types of crud too).

That's a ton of work to do plugs!

Nice Video Benny ! Thanks for Sharing. Question: What is that adapter on your drill is it some sort of torque limiter?

HI BENNY SMART MAN LIKE YOU WOULD ALWAYS HAVE RAA roadside LOL car is looking real clean cool still doing hight 8s or 9 sec still ???

I missed why you needed to remove the rocker covers, were the gaskets leaking?

If I can't change a plug in it in less then 5 minutes, I sure as hell won't buy it. Benny you are way more patient then I will EVER be.

So plugs on century or starter on LS400/Celsior? For sure You will spend just as much on gaskets and shit.

Nice work Ben. Rather you than me though. All those hoses look really annoying. I lived in Japan for a while and used to see cars similar to that one cruising around all the time. They looked really cool. I think they were 6 or 8 cyl models though.

Not gonna lie, these japanese cars are fucking awesome!

you can see why those plugs were never changed. that looks more of a mission than my sport bike . (radiator out airbox out) they would have put iridium in from factory tho because of difficulty

More people should watch this video so they know what they're getting themselves into when they are influenced by all these other videos titled "the best luxury car for 20k", etc., etc. You have to get parts for it and maintain it. That's something Doug Demuro never talks about when he reviews these "great buys". I'm sure the Century is a great car but all cars needs maintenance.

If you had guest appearances or a colleague on the channel I think it would be better. Keep up the good work

The so called music ruins the whole show, volume down. Then up to hear you.
