Will this fit in my 1993 Nissan 240sx?
If your vehicle can accept a Single DIN radio then this should fit. To find out for sure goto Crutchfields website to enter your vehicle info, or call them
Your video sucks.
The seat post is garbage but the bike is amazing
@arthurpenfield8229 I haven't had any issues with the seat post, what happened with yours?
Man had the car for 6 months and couldnt find ANYTHING to fix this. Thank you so MUCH!!
Thank you bro seriously
@e-klass6973 absolutely!
I just bought one for my Surly bridge club. Can’t wait to test it out.
Awesome. It was a gamechanger for me.
I doubt mine the switch, i can hear motor whirring when i click the button to go down but its stuck in highest position
I assume you checked under the seat to make sure there isn't a foreign object blocking it?
@KeithBlade oh yeah Ive been under there with a torch to look for anything out of ordinary but it all seems like it should be, nothing obviously broken and hanging, no objects blocking it
How much? What's the price?
Toyota Service manual says jiggle valve at 6 o’clock position. Had mine at 12 and ran 190deg + By putting it at 6, temps dropped 10deg+ Going with what Toyota recommends. I never knew a thermostat could be longer!! That’s some good info sir!!!👍🏼👍🏼
Definitely! I think there's a notation in the video to always go with what the manual recommends. Thanks for posting.
never changed a thermostat before, do I need to buy a gasket for my 1998 4Runner or just the thermostat and replace it?
Best to get a new gasket, the black rubber kind that stretches around the thermostat. Make sure it fits the thermostat before leaving the auto parts store
Thx u!! Didn't even know of the button under glove box
For sure, you're welcome.
Thank you so much!!! I have a 2006 330 and we have a drive in movie theater and I can’t even figure out how to get them off for the movie. This worked!
Awesome, I love hearing this and glad to help. Enjoy the movie!
Thanks for sharing
how did you put the belt with your tensioner locked in place? how do you go around the tensioner locked?
I didn't need to go around it on my vehicle. If yours is in the way then I guess you'd have to carefully release it, then secure it again once the belt is in ready to be put in place
@@KeithBlade thanks, I just looked at the serpentine belt routing diagram, it could come out without removing the wrench holding the tensioner in place.
I need to replace mine but I can not find wiper or the rubber blade. did you buy the whole piece? the arm plus the wiper or just the wiper? Thank you Bro, I saw your link. I love people like you that are helping
See link in description for this item, it comes with arm and blade.
Can anyone confirm if this freezer is garage ready? Not all freezers are.
Not officially far as I can tell. But this depends how hot your garage actually gets. I've been running this in our garage from day 1 only turned up half way, and it works great. Same with the freezer before this one, ran fine for years. But even in summer it's rarely above 85 in our garage. I don't think this would work in a really hot garage like in Arizona. Also may depend if your garage has insulated walls or not.
I have their master 1/4in and 3/8 sets. Love em!
Hey so I have a 2023 Acura tlx and hooking up an amp and sub to it. I’m able to go to the anc menu and disable it while I’m in the menu but when I leave the menu it turns on again. Not sure how to keep it off. If I don’t keep it off every time I press on the accelerator and the bass goes off
This is a temporary fix that doesn't require messing with the wiring. There is a way to permanently disable it but it involves getting into wiring anf I can't recommend doing that on a new car. Plus then you'd lose the inside road noise deadening. You could talk to a stereo shop, they usually have stuff to install that can fine tune what you're hearing
Perfect instructions. Save me a trip back to my Lexus service
Jiggle valve goes up, it helps with the purging of the air from the system. These cars dont have bleed valves like others so this helps.
What model is this one
This one is a '98 4runner SR5 2wd
Do you deliver
I'm not Costco... I'm just a guy on the internet 😅
Is it okay to remove crown before battery in watch with complications like tachymeter and chronograph?
TEKTON ratchets are in my top two favorite ratchets
Hola. El marco de esta bicicleta sirrus 1.0 soporta neumáticos más anchos? 35?
En Ingles, por favor?
@@KeithBlade Hello. Does the frame of this sirrus 1.0 bike support wider tires? 35?
@gonzalomunoz6819 hi, mine is the Sirrus Sport. I put larger tires on, I think mine are 32. They fit fine. There is a little room left over so it's possible you could do 35 on mine but I haven’t tried those. Please see my video on Continental tires I put on, they are incredible and highly recommended.
This one: kzread.info/dash/bejne/hKJmz9GSmdXIdtI.htmlsi=RBfN9MTyPBIC-Gzh
You are right keithblade, yours are 32. Thanks so much. Saludos desde chile 🇨🇱
Great thanks you for the video tips. I have this problem for some times now , And like you said it's has to do with the Parking Brake. And it's just went off.
Glad it helped
My 3rd gen 4runner has a stuttering issue when in gear, accelerating and reverse, and has just started to over heat, any ideas?
Stuttering how? Like a fuel misfire issue or does it feel like the tranny is sluggish?
Going to try tomorrow for my 1998 SR5 without working heat. Any thoughts?
Thats not always related to a thermostat, theres other things involved in the heater. If your engine runs cold and never warms up properly, it could be a thermostat. If it hasn't been replaced in years it's a good idea to replace it anyway.
Is your engine getting to operating temperature? If the motor get hot but you have no heat, i would look at flushing the heater core.
Please just tell us how many psi on each tire if drive more than 30 mins, include spare tire, 35psi or 36 psi.?
Depends on the tire manufacturer (varies) if you want an exact answer I'd ask the shop where you got the tires. Other than that I routinely run 35-36psi when the tires are warm and never had an issue and that advice came straight from the Lexus dealer.
We have that same style stopper in our hall bathtub.
This looks like the biggest pain the arse I’ve ever seen
There's definitely worse jobs. As for serpentine belt it's fairly typical, but does need some patience and plenty of reaching.
I have a 2.7 4 cylinder I wonder if it’s the same one? 1998
Not sure. The one in video is the 6 cyl . You could check the website and see if it gives a different part number based on engine size for that model year.
thanks keith
You're welcome.
Fixed my issue! Thank you!
You're welcome!
Can you change the door swing direction like you can on most refrigerators?
On mine it does not appear the door can switch directions or be modified to open the other way.
I am receiving mine tomorrow
Very helpful...thx 😊
Glad to hear that, Matt... thanks!
I'm getting my bikes tuned up. I wanted to get the Conti Town & Country tires, as they're best suited for the riding I do. The bike shop guy said that Conti stopped making them, so he got me the eContact Plus tires instead; they're like the Contact Plus, but they're wider. Anyway, I'm glad that these tires are good, as my MTB will now have them. Thanks!
Great to hear... the Conti tires have been amazing, still haven't got a flat on them so I'd definitely buy them again next time!
@@KeithBlade thanks!
2009 Toyota Tacoma with gear shift lock. i was towing the other day and turned off truck. i did restart then that's when it locked. got it back on road after i had to use the shift release switch. had no turn signals or cruise also . all lights were working otherwise. checked out some videos and one recommended trying the brake stop switch by brake peddle. no fuses looked bad. before i go try the brake stop i am looking for other feedback if anyone else experienced the same problem. thanks
Corolla 2012 gear shift is stuck in the parking to reverse only Can i use this way
I'm not sure, that might be a different problem or a mechanical issue. With this video the shifter won't come out of park due to electrical reasons
@@KeithBlade Thank you The problem was related to the piece tied to the transmission cable, I sprayed it with rust remover and the problem was solved.
I always use genuine toyota parts when possible. That green coolant probaly isn't the best idea long term. Great video. I always put the jiggle at 12 o'clock like you stated.
Agreed on OEM. But mixing green and orange coolant is not recommended. The truck came with green coolant in the 90s, and still had green coolant when we bought it last year. It's not worth the risk to me to try to flush all the green stuff out and replace with orange because if they mix, it can gel up and clog the water jacket. It runs well with green coolant and if changed at correct intervals there should be no issues
Great video, how do you know when to swao them out? Were there any signs or symptoms to look out for? Thanks
Vehicle mileage, and more importantly any micro cracks or issues on any part of the belt. Usually if there are some cracks there are many, all over the belt. Bending or twisting the belt with your fingers sometimes helps to see them.
@@KeithBlade Thanks Keith appreciate the info.
With OEM Toyota belts they last along time. I’d say conservatively 10 years or 150k miles
My 2003 Toyota 4Runner V8 i having heard time changing the gare from P to D what causes that.
Probably shifter cable needs adjusting
I have a large chest freezer and use stackable bins and a marker board above the chest freezer to map out everything in it, therefore I always know what is in my chest freezer, and can always reach all the way to the bottom of it easily. Chest freezers hold cold air extremely well and will save on electricity costs, also chest freezers are not auto defrosting, and so they will keep the temperature more consistent to avoid freezer burn. Finally because the cold air stays in, and isn't constantly spilling out when you open the door, it minimizes moisture and thus frost buildup, meaning manual defrosting events will be minimal.
I tried everything and my problem was that I had a disconnected battery ground strap. That fixed everything and now I can shift out of park!
Fantastic, I'm glad you found the solution!
I have the 2019 model ,its a solid ,reliable bike although a bit on the slow side which could be down to the bike geometry. Its like the more effort you put in to going faster is wasted effort because the bike dont care lol. I upgraded the cassette to a 10 speed, fitted a deore rear deraileur and grx 800 crankset 1x narrow wide and some sammy slick tyres. Its now a bit lighter but not faster , i intend to upgrade the wheels next . I have 3 other bikes , 2 mountain bikes and another hybrid and they are all faster than the sirrus but speed is not everything ,i still enjoy the bike
I feel like they were faster when they came with narrower tires like mine in the video
what about the UTE200BT ?? its the same interface and the same menu but is it good as the CDE 172BT??
That one has no CD
will it hold a brisket?
Hi it depends how big. I'd say the freezer would hold a small turkey, but NOT a large turkey. So it depends how big your brisket is, if you remove the plastic drawer you'd have 7 inches of clearance between the shelves.
what i learned about organizing in draws in selves you have to really think about where stuff fits also making everything flat and taking stuff out of boxes
I agree about disc brakes, great if you like them but rim brakes are all I need so not with the extra cost
