how to get the oil cap off of a 4.9 liter Cadillac motor
Hello, How about letting me rent that tool you have for removing the Water Pump Pulley? Please….That special part will cost me…$150.00 just to mention…anywhere around here..
Steve Harvey? Lol
Where can I get that tool to take off the pulley off of the camshaft?
Mr. Staples, do you work on cars for other people? Mine needs this work done. Just thought I'd ask.
Douchbag owner. How to tell? The license plates.
Those of us who are well-off, don't need to advertise it.
Where did you get the special tool to remove the gear? And what is the name of that tool?
So I need a special tool to remove the top plastic pulley? Mine shredded and so did the tensionor pulley.
Great job, that v8 takes the whole engine bay. Many bolts are very hard to remove. Credit to your patience. I've had two sevilles so I know they aren't easy to work on.
Thank you Mr Staples, I miss working with real Mechanics such as yourself.
Awesome video.thanks.
Thank you, this video was very informative. And I will also have a talk with Lord be I start. I also like your comment about keeping it quiet while you work. Thank you, sir.
