spelunkerd says:

That’s worth knowing, in the past I’ve just replaced the wires. Great demo!

keith solomon says:

I love watching your videos! You are one of my favorites on YouTube! I’m 30
years old and have been doing all my own repairs since I was 16 and had my
first car. There is no repair that I won’t attempt on my own!
Some jobs are more frustrating than others but the knowledge, feeling of
accomplishment and money saved always makes it worth it in the end.

I firmly believe what goes around comes around, your a good man,, good
things will come your way…. and like a bell ringing you’ll know… I
remember reading a story about a Good Samaritan…

Pet Rock's Garage says:

Great video. I’ve done this a couple times so I could drive to the auto
parts store and pick up a new set of wires. 🙂 I got a set with a
lifetime warranty, so they gave me a new set for free, so I don’t mind so
much when/if it happens. I always use dielectric grease, but sometimes sh!t
happens.

David Ammerlaan says:

Yet anotherrrrr informative video! Thank you and happy bday

iworkforbudlight says:

Brian, you are a great guy helping people in need! This is really a great
money saver.
Ending was hilarious.

Paul Rhodes says:

So great of you to do this for a friend! Love the videos thanks again for
taking the time to help all of us have a wonderful week.

Pete Moss says:

Happy Birthday Brian !
Wow you took me back to my child hood as a teen repairing spark plug
wires just as you did . 

mungewell says:

Brian you are a true gentleman for saving people money, when you know
they’d have difficulty finding that extra $40. Hope you have storage space
for all that good karma.
Happy Birthday for next week!

transdetendal says:

HMM BRIAN!! looks like a hanna´s got a corrolla from late of the 80´s!!
or ami just kidding myself?

Tom OConnor says:

This about qualifies you for entry into the group of “Eco Warriors”.
Recycle should be always the preferred
option and this video shows some great adaptive skills.

Dick Fageroni says:

if you’re so poor you don’t have 40 bucks to spare … why have a kid?
seriously.

Andrew Thompson says:

I pulled one out once and got new wires. A year later the new wires broke
down because they were junk. So I fixed the original wire and they were
still good three years later when the car was sold.

413_Dina says:

SeanBZA says:

Paul Morales says:

liveinmyamerica says:

Good tips Brian and a good friend to have and yes I jumped. 

planet1250 says:

37? Doesn’t matter, you’re young inside!

18iser says:

Never thought that that would work, awesome!

Bianchi Sanremo says:

Related question – what should you do to make sure you do not get shocked
when removing plug wires from a running engine, like when you are trying to
find a dead cylinder?

BroSef H says:

Wow, all this knowledge and not even 40 years old! Amazing!

Albion Laster says:

happy birthday brian!

KJ6EPL says:

This is also good to know because the contact on some plugs can unscrew
from the insulator. Had one get lodged up in a boot once, and it took a
dozen cuss words or so to get it out. Had I known this trick, it would have
saved no small amount of frustration.

Screamin Eagle says:

I don’t know how many times I’ve had to do this operation on my cars. I’ve
been doing this (shade tree) for about as long as you have. Since I was 16.
It’s still interesting to watch someone else do it though. Thanks for
spotlighting some of the things I’ve been doing for so many years.

William Allen says:

Thanks for the videos.
Been there, done that. Good for you, Karma doesn’t always put money in your
pocket, but.
Silicone is great for all rubber products on a car, my door and trunk,
gaskets are like new,on
my 87 Tornado ” Trafio”, bought new, and never garaged . Might explain ”
FISH EYE” tho . 

Robert Myers says:

I love the pick don’t Poke Brian! Because it sounds like a really dirty
country song…….., he he he. Thanks for being a Human being and helping
her out! Blessings to you…….

VIheavyequipment says:

cpncme273 says:

Brian, is there ever a price $$$ wise when you help. Helping is without
doubt what makes you do what you do. Love it and don’t forget what makes
you you 🙂 

Dave H says:

What about a friend driving in three cilinders to autozone, making him/her
even more friendly LOL. Nice tip. cheers

jake legg says:

Should of checked your work with an ohm meter.
You can buy an individual wire pretty cheap.
But it is good to see.
Thanks

I’m a day late on the Wednesday video again. It’s been intense around here
lately. Everyone’s broke and so are their cars! Enjoy this video- it’s
perfect for such occasions!
