Aight I just replaced my starter but I’m just getting a single click but no start. I had the old starter tested and they said it’s bad and they said by battery is good but needs a charge. I tried jumping it before i tested it however but it still wouldn’t start, so I don’t see that making much of a difference. I feel like it could be my alternator cuz that’s the only thing not new but or tested in about a month but still I’m not sure… any help is greatly appreciated
Seems like a good video, but the stupid music is hard to hear over. What's the purpose of the music?
Trying to do this now but my safety tab is on top and so far I can’t get at an angle to release it. So frustrating.
Thanks
You don't torque anything?
And if you put a washable performance air filter in, you may gain 5 hp and foot pounds of torque and a slightly more aggressive intake sound
Pretty good video but so you don’t have to risk damaging your filter try one of the frame top-of-the-line filters in mobile one high mileage 10 W 30 or the extended life 5W-30 high mileage and if you buy it at Walmart, it’s significantly cheaper than the regular auto parts store and of course change your cabin filter every six months
So what if the 24v starter spins on a12v but the bending gear doesn't come out will it comes out on a full voltage of 24v
Excellent video great details thanks simeone that really knows how to test a starter u could teach alot of people on here thank my man
Ty. Very good
Do you Need a swivel ??? What size socket is that?
Very Best How to video I have ever seen
thanks for the tutorial, i did exactly all this but before i only had code P0520 and now after replacement i also get code p0523 and i cant clear it from the obd scanner, any suggestions?

I think my selenoid is bad. So i got a no crank no start. I needed a booster to get car started. Got it to start but car lasted I only 2 days and then did the same thing. I charged battery i case it was battery. Started no crank no start. Did it again and it took 10 seconds turnover before it started. So i dont think its the starter or it wont even turn but the selenoid going bad is not popping out coukd cause it to not turn sometimes or not turn most times? From spinning and cranking? I got a code for cam shaft position sensor, which I read eventually causes no start but it doesnt say if its a no turn no start or of its a turn but no start. Alternator hasnt died or the car would lose power and turn off or just not turn and or crank at all. Other suggestions anyone? let me know please. I dont want to buy new starter and alternator just to find out issue continues. It may be ignition switch or something similar? Not sure
Would 11.8v be too low for the solenoid to close?
I just did this same work on a machine that sat for a few years and didn't get routine maintenance due to the former owners' health. It was all he could do just to ride the thing let alone take care of it. At one point the multiple hoses/tubing didn't make sense how it came apart. Watched your video and found the difference which seemed to make sense to me. Long story short, my deceased BnL's 660 fired right up and will be put back into service and fun. Thanks for the very well-done and useful video.
This is great! Thanks so much! But PLEASE... Lose the background music. It's distracting and makes it harder to hear what you are saying... :)
Take fuel selection know before tank, small Phillips screw
Good video
I'm going to try this on my 2011 Malibu. Thanks for your detailed video ❤❤❤
You’reawesome! Good teaching services bud. No unnecessary blabber, full sentences, clear descriptions of what to do, as well as what not to do. Kudos. Definitely worth subscribing to see what else you do. Much appreciated.
Great video I have a question. Is there need to remove the right wheel when fitting the oil pressure sensor? because my right lock nut key is messed up can’t remove the wheel at the moment
U didn't say fill oil filter with new oil.....
May i can drive the car with that check engine for 2 days ?
Thank you. I'm having trouble with my car starting intermittently, I had a new starter put on and new battery my terminals are good and everything looks good on the starter now to start checking the solenoid because like I said sometimes it cranks and sometimes it don't! thank you so much for a to the point and precise video
If you purchased a new starter it already has a new solenoid on the housing. You may have a crack shaft sensor or a cam shaft sensor going bad.
If they both are tested and good it's most likely your ignition switch.
Thank you very much
Te amo cara tu mim ajudou mto
Great video!
Great video of a disassemble example but don't waste your money on a Amazon carb. Just rebuild your oem
Thank you very much for this video. I'm a novice mechanic and this video helped me tremendously. I successfully installed the carburetor! The attention to detail was great!
You did not describe how to check and then set the spark plug gap to specification. Always check the plug gap beofre installation - especially on 'pre-gapped' spark plugs.
Ok so I have only a few questions......do you have running water? and if so do you like working on a dirty ATV especially on a carb.........Ok thanks PigPen
I did this repair today. Thanks for your video. Subscribed. About the only thing I would add to it is that one may want to use some brake cleaner in the pigtail that gets disconnected from the switch/sensor as it was oily. Thanks again!
Thank you so much. This is one of the best videos out there for my car. This will be the last time I get a car that doesn’t have a million how to videos on it haha 😂
So the first starter doesn’t spin through the solenoid. Test the starter alone by applying power to it through the lower post of the solenoid that has a wire directly connected to the starter and negative cable same to the body of the starter. If the starter suddenly spins, then the problem is with the contacts inside the solenoid.
Got a question for ya I bought a 2004 grizzly 660 brand new 19 years ago off the showroom floor. Basically I’ve always kept everything OEM. I’ve taken my car bro part a few times over the 20 years just to clean the Jets or replace replace fuel, bowl, gaskets etc. etc.. during the process I have replaced my throttle cable several times over these almost 20 years and I realize there is an adjustment upfront where your actual thumb throttle is and then I realize there’s an axle adjustment that controls your butterfly. Do remember how many revolutions you turned your lock nut. So basically, when you go to remove your throttle cable, you back off your lock nut and then you turn your adjustment screw up the threads to create slack so you can disconnect your throttle cable from your carburetor/butterfly spring and then of course once you get enough slack, you disconnect it and then you do something very similar up on the handlebars to get it disconnected from your thumb throttle. My question is when you replace it with a new OEM throttle. You stick it into the carburetor and install it to the butterfly spring. I forgot how many revolutions you turn your adjustment screw and your lock nut screw on the threads and then of course you do something very similar up on your handlebars to connect the other end of the throttle cable to your thumb throttle. My question is I’ve forgot I know it kind of sits in the middle somewhere your lock nut and your throttle adjustment cable that goes to the butterfly on the carb but I can’t remember. So in Laymans terms, if you can remember, let’s just say we screw the lock nut all the way back up against the carburetor, and then we screw the adjuster all the way up until it stops up against the carburetor. Do you know how many revolutions I turn the adjuster back? And then of course, I will bring the lock nut forward to hold the adjuster in place and then I can install it to the handlebar for the thumb throttle??? Dealing with the idle adjustment screw is something I’m not concerned about because I and anyone else knows exactly how that works. I’ve just forgotten where to set my adjuster for my butterfly and I have a manual, but it doesn’t tell me I actually have a climber Manuel for that bike. So if you can tell me the correct setting or anybody else that might know the correct setting of the throttle cable after you install and hook it to the carburetor it might be six or seven or eight revolutions out. I’m not sure but I want to get it set properly and then use the lock nut and lock it in, like I said earlier, the top part for the thumb throttle is easy but honestly what I’ve been doing since I forgot the correct, setting to the butterfly control I’ve just spun the lock not all the way back till it ran out of threads and I screwed and the adjuster all the way in until that basically wouldn’t go any further And then just picked up the slack up top by the thumb throttle so I just need the correct setting for the lock nut and the adjuster on the carburetor butterfly control!!! Thanks man so if you can basically just explain it by Al back my lock not all the way off until it has no more room and then I’ll screw the adjuster all the way in till it stops and then you can give me the rotations for the adjuster and then I’ll just bring the lock night up and get a small wrench on the lock nut and a small open and ranch on the adjuster and tighten them towards each other!!!!! Thanks man appreciate it or anybody else that may know I am dealing with an Yamaha OEM throttle cable, just in case someone has a motion, pro or an aftermarket. I do realize that the originals are a little shorter. However, I’ve never had a problem with mine revving louder when I turn my steering to the left or right, I really truly try to keep everything in OEM. Thanks again.
I guess he doesn't check replies much. Either that or he didn't feel like reading a novel.
*Promo sm*
All the videos need be like this video, clear and super explain
I'm totally green with this. I have a 2003 ezgo gas golf cart.( had it for 8 months). Where should I look to locate solenoid.I also believe the idle to be Fowled up( had a mechanic wanna be fiddle with it). Anyway, when I go to turn it over , it won't click and engage.
Thank you for that I can see the location the this sensor. Some body tell me the this sensor is in back the intake
thanks man--very informational
It’s much easier to get the tank off if you stick a long shaft Phillips driver down the hole in the middle of the tap and unscrew it.
What is the OEM part # used please?
Dude thanks for the video, but your hands are covering most of the work. So we can’t even see what you’re doing.
Ive watch so many videos and ive been delaying doing it because didn't to remove major parts but This Video just save soooo much time for me THANK YOUUU for sharing it, im literally on my way to get me some new jack stands and replaced the sensor 🤙🤙
I'll swing by...
Mine will not idle, even when the choke is on, and as soon as I let off of the throttle, it turns off any suggestions on to what the problem could be? Everybody else is saying that there’s idles when the choke is on, but mine does not. There’s a brand new carburetor on it.
so it runs if you apply throttle? turn up the idle..
did you buy an oem carb or a throw away chinese carb?
What if sensor still reads bad
I like this video because you don't do a 10 minute useless introduction showing off your great personality. You got right to the instructions and described the process concisely. Great job
