This is why I like your videos. !!!To the point without a bunch of fancy scanning tools. (Unless you really have to). Not to put down south m auto , but he can’t change a simple light bulb without pulling all these fancy, expensive and complicated scan tools with a bunch of test. Most of the viewers don’t have these kind of equipment nor can afford it. So how can we diagnose it without them. Most of your videos are diagnosed with a simple test light , power probe and a multimeter. thanks.

How do we know it is not just a clogged fuel filter compromising the volumetric flow rate?
