You need to stop the fuel delivery before compression testing. I pull the fuel pump fuse while the car is running and let it die before doing any compression testing. Replace the fuel pump fuse when you're done testing.
Turning the motor over via the starter relay bypasses the need to keep going in and out if the cab. It also bypasses the fuel pump from being activated.
Thanks for the video. I was looking forward to a timelapse of steps for removing axles and tranny. This is akin to watching a cake recipe with the baker is shown icing the cake. Lol.
It was a 15 mm socket that I used to remove the nuts that hold the axle in but I'm sure they're not the OEM hardware someone has probably worked on this truck prior to me doing any service on this vehicle
Simple and straight to the point. Much appreciated! I need to redo the seals on the diff of my 79 T-Bird and I had no idea what I was looking at ( having owned a 98 mustang ) This video definitely taught me something 👍
I just used a host pick you're able just to puncture the seal and then you can use the host pick if it's curved to kind of wedge it back most of them aren't really pressed in super tight the original one has been on there since the vehicle was built and it didn't take long for me to take it off without having to use a puller or a seal puller
