Here are a few videos that will help you in working on your Suzuki Hayabusa, Honda CBR600RR, Subaru Impreza, Mazda 3, or boat diesel engine. Have fun and good luck!
Great video, thanks! We just got this model after a previous self-cleaning model failed. Glad to know about all the required maintenance to hopefully keep it running longer. I noticed water after taking out the compartment, too; thanks for the rag tip and for confirming that it's normal to see that. Didn't realize about the sensors, either! The more you know!
Thank you very much for the video very well explained I had to use the choke a little bit to keep it running because it was out of sink but then once I synced up the one throttle body that was out it didn't need to choke anymore
Are you using a 3” extension on your socket? Would that help with the problem you are having? Take a look at about 9 minutes into my video where I discuss using an extension on your socket. Good luck!
Good interesting video, On the Subaru Forester you can crank over the engine when new oil is installed with out starting the engine by pushing the gas pedal all the way forward and then the brake pedal and then push the start button, crank the engine over for about 4-6 seconds to prime the pump and help fill the oil filter with a new installation of oil and new filter with out starting at high RPM(try this just before you start the oil change to confirm your Subaru has this feature). To keep your engine in good shape I suggest changing your filter and oil every 5,000 miles max or every 6months what ever comes first with synthetic oil as suggested by Subaru, my Forester on filler cap calls for 0-20W synthetic(Castrol oil is a suggested oil brand by Subaru Australia).
Thanks. That's very useful, as I'm about to change my fuel filter for a RACOR after experiencing problems with the type currently fitted. Greetings from Wales, UK.
David, thanks for a very clear video. I suspect you have a tight space, and you did an excellent job of showing what you were doing. I'll be calling ITR tomorrow to get my kit. I'm firing but will flame out, some times it runs a while;, other times not Long a all. Any how, thanks again, good job!
I have yet to see such a complete, simple and informative example of working on a fuel sstem, as you have presented here. If you're not an instructor at a community college or similar place,,,, YOU SHOULD BE. Very nice job of this presentation and narration. . Thank You.
Thanks for the video. I'm want to replace the water filter. I have the same model you have. Where is the water filter? It's not as straight forward as other videos I've seen.
Bennie, I’m sorry to say that our model doesn’t have a water dispenser so our manual makes no mention of a water filter. Sorry that I can’t help you. Good luck.
My oil alarm was going off on my Beta Marine diesel. Thanks to you I found the oil pressure sender unit, and the wire had come loose. Bad crimping. Reattached and problem solved. You saved me some cash! Thanks!
5.1 quarts including the filter. Your manual will explain this. If you don’t change the filter, I believe it is 4.7 quarts, but double check your manual. Good luck!
I just double checked. I advised you incorrectly. I believe it is 4.5 quarts with the filter. Check your manual to be safe. And check your dipstick after running the engine a few minutes and shutting it down and waiting five minutes for the oil to run down. I no longer own that model so I don’t have the manual to check it for you.
Thank you very much for this very informative video, If I didn't come across your video I wouldn't have known about this at all. I'm a proud owner of a 2006 Hayabusa with 28,000miles, just bought it 2 weeks ago. I haven't really done anything to it except for detailing it. I have no record of what has ever been done to this bike on maintenance but, I will start creating a log book for my bike. However, It had a power commander and I removed it because I don't need it, I'm 3rd owner and I love going up on the twisties, not straight ways. I want to have fun. At the end of the day I just want to ride.
You don’t use a screwdriver because there is no screw. It’s a very high tension nut that you turn with the box-end wrench. Take a look at the video at 13:59 and you’ll see the wrench on the adjusting nut. Good luck!
HI, I have a question on placing crush washer on drain plug. Does the larger flat side face the drain plug bolt head or does it face drain pan. Please let me know. Thank you, Bob W
Thank you David. I will give it a shot. I have an SP135 and it seems that the valve clearance can be adjusted on a cold engine for the SP135. Will just double check that. Thanks again for a great video!
i got same hayabusa when air box is on place there is a some sort of intake for a hose thats missing on the right side of the bike and i get the exhaust sensor fault on my bike,,what or where is that hose suppose to come from?? the bike really is drinking a lot off fuel right now.
Sorry, I don’t recall where that hose goes. I would suggest looking for a Hayabusa repair manual. It should have one or more diagrams that hopefully would show you. Good luck!
Can anyone tell me how to incorporate this with the Oil pressure safety shut off valve? From what i understand this sending unit is just what your oil pressure gauge reads and is not the actual safety shut off switch.
God bless all RU-vidrs who take your time to make these World Class tutorials. Thanks David, this has finally given me the confidence to make the adjustment on my Ford 2725e in my 1983 Dutch Gruno trawler here in Sweden.
I’ve always taken my car in to get the oil changed, but I wanted to do it myself this time around. I got all of the supplies, got it onto the ramps, but found out that the screw is on way too tight to get off with a ratchet. They must have used an impact wrench. I tried getting it off with one, but to no avail. Any ideas on what to do other than take it in for an oil change?
Leverage is key. Use a long handled breaker bar, not a ratchet. If necessary use a short handled sledge hammer to hit the handle/breaker bar. Keep tapping it with the sledge hammer. Be patient. It will loosen. If necessary slide a piece of pipe over the breaker bar to increase the leverage. Good luck.
First oil change at home for our 2019 Subaru Impreza. Been avoiding it for a few years since the car is really low to the ground. Thanks for sharing. Saved me some time trying to figure out what is needed to complete the oil change. 😀
Glad it helped. I forgot to mention that you should always use a jack stand as a safety precaution against the jack failing while you’re underneath the car.
There is a door on the bottom in the back ( after you have the other parts out ). That door comes up and out and you can clean more lint and water out!
It'd be great if someone made a video of an easy way to snap that annoying door back on in that tiny area all the way in the back of the dryer. Getting it off is bad enough. 😂
Great video, thanks! Used a 7443 bulb for my replacement. A tip though for anyone with a 4-door model (i.e. sedan): There are no screws. Instead, take a flathead screwdriver and check the inside of your trunk on the trim near the back for a small plastic clip on each side. Use the flathead screwedriver to pry off the clip on the side you need to replace and pull the trim back. You should have direct access to the bulbs from there. Otherwise, the instructions are the same. Your car's owner manual should also contain images of the locations of the clips, if you're in doubt.
