Hi. Very good and informative video. Im actually getting ready to do the same on my toyota pickup truck. U gave me all the information i need. U r a very good instructor. Thanks.
Thanks Peter, my Honda Civic clutch and brake fluids are a little dark so I'm changing them soon. I run a rubber tube from the nipple into a glass jar, so I can watch for clear fluid exiting the tube when the pedal is depressed. Cheers.
If one day I get to watch all of your " Toyota Maintenance " Video would I be as good of a Mechanic as you are ? I know the answer but I still watch your Video anyway. You are the best MY FRIEND 🤌
Wondering how to clean an engine that looks like that? Step one is to wipe as much dirt off as you can with some dry rags. (A vacuum with a synthetic bristle brush will work too, if you don't mind cleaning the oil off the brush later, because the engine will probably have some oily dirt on it.) Then use some damp rags to remove the rest of the dirt, which got wet and stuck to everything. That is usually good enough. Don't apply a lot of force to old hoses, plastic vacuum lines, and wires, because the heat under there can make them brittle. But if you want perfection, dampen a rag with mineral spirits, and get the rest of the oily dirt off. Mineral spirts will evaporate completely. Before detergents were available, people washed clothes with it twice a year to get the oil from their skin out of the clothes. Do not use water from a hose to clean under the hood of modern vehicles There is too great a chance to get water inside the many, low voltage wiring connectors, and cause corrosion on the contacts which will be very expensive to diagnose and repair. Of course, since it is a machine, it doesn't matter if it is dirty.
I recall opening the bleeder at the clutch slave cylinder and using a vacuum pump connected to an air hose to draw the old fluid out and refill the reservoir on the clutch master cylinder.
Love your videos! Please keep up the great work. I would like to try this myself on my 1997 Tacoma. So I shouldn’t have to worry about bleeding the line if I do it this way? I feel confident I can do this myself but worry about getting air in the line.
Thank you so much, please give me advice for may hilux 2015 for change differential oil GL4 75W90 suitable or GL5 75W90.PPplease gift me suggest. thankyou.
Or, get three transfer pumps at Harbor Freight when they are on sale for $3.99 Use one for brake fluid, one for ATF, and one for antifreeze. www.harborfreight.com/multi-use-transfer-pump-63144.html
There's black gooey stuff in my whole steel lines gravity bleeding is not enough even with the rubber hose is removed I'm still seeing black stuff and the slave cylinder was damaged only 6 days brand new
@Toyota Maintenance. Thank you Professor Peter on today's class on clutch fluid servicing and antenna stud removal. I wondre whether a Speedout www.homedepot.com/p/Ontel-Speed-Out-Speed-Out-Titanium-Screw-Extractor-4-Piece-1000367/303667297 would work for removing that broken stud? Maybe the stud metal is too hard for using such a extractor? Hope you and your family stay safe and well.
