I've watched him for awhile, used to be subscribed. Got repetitive after awhile, but interesting channel for sure. Helped me a bit repairing the basket case Bayou 400 I have. Recently got into Pole Barn Garage, he's pretty funny.

General Auto Tech / 09 Cadillac CTS-V

I'm blessed to have friends who entrust me to work on their prized possessions.
My buddy Gus has this beautiful 2009 Cadillac CTS-V that needs some love.
The supercharger drive coupler is failing as they all do - I'm going to replace it with an aftermarket solid unit, install a Cold air intake, oil catch can, plugs/wires, coolant flush, and oil change.
Unfortunately, the entire supercharger needs to be removed to pull the snout off to get to the coupler/isolator.

This came up in my recommendation s a few weeks back...and I've been binge watching as many as I can. He basically buys bikes from people who can't get them running or the bike has issues they can't deal with. The young lad comes off as a bike mechanic or just one of these people that's a natural. The tutorials are excellent. Bikes have always been my first love and I've owned a crapload of them in my life, mostly enduros/dirt bikes. I currently own a 2006 50th Anniversary Special Edition R1 which I purchased new, a 2014 CRF 250 L which which was purchased new and a 2009 Harley Fat Bob and they're all in showroom condition. Enjoy the channel...link is below.

Take your time...it ain't your daily driver. Close enough ain't good enough with these cars. Phil...and the rest of you guys. You screw up just this much with these cars...

The trans is next in line as well. I may have an opportunity to ride with some guys up to Janis for a weekend. We'll see. I'm making significant progress though and intend to keep you guys posted. I WILL drive this car and get the inspection done before the summer is out.

Nope the Latvian Bosch 210 pound per hour injectors are still on my bench.
I did check the serials with Bosch and they are legit.

Have you tested the Latvian injectors? Seems to be all rally racing there from what I've seen
