Decided to do a short video showing the replacement part doing its job on this 2016 Nissan Murano. Pictures will be posted right after this for the way this repair was completed without removing the bumper.

Completed a Ford 4.6L spark plug thread repair on cylinder #4 after finding the threads damaged/stripped.

This repair was done using the proper in-vehicle thread insert repair kit & procedure. The spark plug bore was inspected, cleaned, repaired with the proper thread insert, secured with red Loctite, and the spark plug was torqued to specification. All metal shavings/debris inside the cylinder were blown out, and the engine was manually rotated afterward to confirm there was no binding, interference, or abnormal resistance.

The borescope pictures are a little difficult to see clearly, but the repair procedure was followed to a T from start to finish. Will add better pictures once we pull them from the borescopes SD card.

We are finally getting started on a project we purchased last year: a 1996 GMC C3500HD Cab & Chassis currently equipped with a 6.5L Detroit diesel.

This truck will be converted to a 7.3L IDI diesel with a ZF-5 manual transmission. The 6.5L Detroit still runs strong with zero blow-by, so it will be fully gone through and repurposed into another truck.

The main reason for the conversion is reliability and heavy-hauling capability. The 7.3L IDI is known for being a dependable workhorse and makes comparable power to the 6.5L without a turbo, leaving room for future upgrades.

Once complete, this truck will be set up for serious hauling with a pull-behind hitch system, a 34,000 lb 5th wheel hitch, and a gooseneck adapter to handle multiple trailer hookup styles. It will also be equipped with a 105-gallon diesel auxiliary tank to extend range and support long-haul operations.

The client reported that they had replaced the alternator and battery, but were unable to get the vehicle to start. A brief inspection revealed that the positive side terminal was tightened to its maximum, yet still exhibited movement. By adjusting the terminal to establish sufficient contact, the vehicle was successfully started. The client elected to replace the terminals. Additionally, the old codes were cleared and the steering angle sensor was recalibrated due to the battery disconnection.

Parking Brake Diagnosis and Repair on a
2016 VW Jetta
Client reported inoperative parking brake. Upon inspection, identified that both parking brake cables had become disconnected from the equalizer at the brake handle. Further inspection revealed the passenger-side parking brake cable had been improperly disconnected from the brake caliper, likely due to a prior brake and rotor service. Reconnected all components, properly secured cables to equalizer and caliper, and adjusted cable tension. Verified proper parking brake operation—system is now functioning as intended.

The client purchased these spark plugs in October for installation, but one overheated, causing the insulator to break apart and resulting in a misfire. They requested replacement of all coils and plugs, which was completed.

We recently implemented an AI call screening system in an effort to better filter spam calls from legitimate customer inquiries. However, after testing, we found that the system was not performing as expected and was also behaving in ways that did not align with our standards of service.

Due to these issues, we have fully deactivated the AI screening feature to ensure a more reliable and direct communication experience for our customers. It is possible that some calls may not have come through properly during this time. If you attempted to reach us and did not receive a response, please feel free to call again—we’re here and ready to assist you.

We appreciate your understanding and look forward to providing you with the level of service you expect.

Subsequent to the initial IACV failure, it was replaced, the base idle was recalibrated, and the TPS was fine-tuned (.9v - 1.0v), resulting in a smooth idle and complete elimination of surging.
