what's going on guys welcome back to my channel as you can see I'm we're working
on the mx6 today the cars been sitting prior to me
so with cars that have been sitting especially turbo cars but dissing cars
in general because they've been sitting you know really know the condition of
them now it seems to run and start ok but it's got a slight hesitation when
you Trump the throttle it's sort of hesitates and then kicks in so yeah
because it's been sitting I'm just been doing general maintenance so I replace a
distributor cap some of you younger guys won't know what a distributor is but the
older cars had distributors which was for your ignition a replaces distributor
cap replace the spark plugs and then I just went around everywhere with a
screwdriver and just checked for boost leaks so all around the pipe work and
everything and to my surprise I found the intake pipe a couple of loose found
the air filter loose their intercooler pipe slew so I just found just a bunch
of just loose stuff so plugs distributor cap I took two distributor button off
and just cleaned the ends with some sandpaper because I didn't have another
one if you guys don't know why distributor button is and/or cap to do a
quick google but this one's obviously a t9 electronic distributor a lot of 70s
into 80s had points which were just a pain in the ass
but yeah I much prefer but the newer cars these days just have you know
electronic pickups and and whatnot so no need for a distributor but yeah so cap
cleaning the button up put plugs in and just start a button up and just checking
a bunch of things I pulled the time in about case off because I just want to
make sure that the time about to not shredding apart because I don't to blow
my motor up the air the main reasons what I'm up to now eat actually check
out my um check out my Japanese top I thought up I got this from Japan so I
thought I would chuck it on to work on my Japanese weapon that is the mighty
mx6 which is still waiting to take on some other youtubers but I've haven't
heard back so whatever you're all scared of the big terms but anyway I'll quickly
show you the main point of where I'm up to now
now cards that have been sitting for a while actually I should start again when
I pulled the old plugs out they had a little bit of carbon deposit on them and
a little bit of a sort of a sort of a rich look to him so again if you guys
don't know generally when you pull your spark plugs out you'd be able to tell
the condition of your motor by the by the shade of the plug so if it's a bit
and it's hard to explain about actually looking at it it's a bit gray into a
barren tea without a oily or a fuelie look to it and it's quite dry that could
mean it's running it's running quite efficient it could ever mean if it's a
bit it's a bit sort of real dry enough off to the white a bit it comunist on
the leaner side with mine I had two or three plugs that were running semi that
the that the color looks semi okay so a little bit on the richer side and I
had one plug that was quite rich now because this cars been sitting for a
while I'd imagine that it's only just been started up every now and then never
driven idled for 10-15 minutes and then shut off and forgot about for months on
end so when you do that with these type of cars that's when you get those those
that rich mixture and sometimes that carbon deposit especially on turbo cars
turbo cars ten standard older turbo cars tend to run richer from the factory so
therefore if we haven't yeah if you've had a car that's been sitting for a
while change the plugs check all the ignition
system over and do what I'm about to do so this is a engine
conditioner a lot of the Subaru guys will know exactly what this is super is
a prone to getting gummed up due to their design I use this on all of my
projects soon as I bind but don't know the condition of the I don't know the
condition of it and the plugs look like they're a bit carbon or a bit fuelie on
the rich side I give it a engine clean so this is quite cheap it it pro it says
it's meant to everything and yeah like if you've got gummed up rings or you've
got carbon deposits on your pistons or you've just got oil the stuff this is
meant to steam inside the motor and sugar all at the exhaust I've used this
on everything from holding my neck sixes to 12 a rotary surprisingly all your
rotary guards will know that rotor is
rotaries tend to carbon up on the rotor little rotor faces and the compression
cutouts specially fat if they're ported it deported they run on the really rich
side also we've rotor is you put oil you can put oil into the fuel mixture to
look after the housings so that tends to add to him carbon in up so I had a 212 a
rotary that was 14 years old I bought this through it and it smoked up my
whole estate got really bad I had neighbors is looking at me it's smoked
up my whole SX rotary smoke when they're brand new so this smoked up my whole
estate was a brand new estate so but it did its job the rotary started up first
click it just sounded crisp the plugs were clean after pulling them off again
now 14 years is going to be lower on compression and oil control rings are
going to be a bit worn out but I mean the sake of doing this yeah it just it
just because the motor was never really revved out to that's a
is another thing why I'm doing it this mx6 is a turbo model but it's an auto
generally speaking this is not don't hold me to this but generally speaking
an auto turbo don't get revved out as much as what a manual car would be so if
your pot if they're putting around the street just doing three three thousand
three and a thousand all the time shifting and it's turbo and it's an art
and it's running on the rich side it will eventually sort of gank up a little
bit carving up a little bit so where I got onto this from my days working at
with Burson Auto Parts and I've used it ever since I know a couple the other
YouTube guys tend to use it great product I'm gonna show you and talk you
through how you how we do it on my mx6 and we'll see if it makes a difference
now generally when you do this I would do this first check your oil make sure
the oil levels fine but do this first then do an oil change do your plugs etc
I did my plugs before this only for the fact that I pulled a plug out and I
checked it and the thread on the actual plug was damaged and I didn't want to
damage the thread in my head so I just changed out all the plugs rather than
having one separate one the plugs are cheap enough and if I knew if I need
another set of plugs I will but but yeah when you do this just make sure you do
this first then you do your plugs your oil etc and clean your throttle body and
stuff like that if you're that keen but yeah so I'm gonna work on a tripod and
then I'm gonna talk you guys through how to do so generally generally what you
meant to do is you meant to pull a back line a vacuum line from the intake
manifold spray this for 15 SEC second continuous like let the motor sit and
then switch some get the motor started now it's going to be harder to start
with this so far the motor up and then I'm lucky because this is cable you only
met two users cable throttle so I'll hold the motor at like 3,000 rpm I'll
spray this and control it it's gonna want to stall I keep the revs up and
they'll eventually do what it's meant to do so what I'm gonna do is I'm gonna
Chucky gasps chicken might eat it I'm gonna Chuck you guys on a tripod at the
front it's a little bit windy so I apologize and I'm gonna show you how to
do this so bear with me
all right guys quickly to show you the plugs I pulled out that I talked about
earlier you see they're a little bit oily a
little bit you can see the carbon deposits see that's a you can see the
carbon deposits on the plugs and this is the distributor cap I changed so you can
see it in quite poor condition on the contacts so the price of it is easier
just to change it to be honest so that's it yeah I told you got a pool
you got to spray the stuff into it after their throttle body in the intake so I'm
gonna use that port there that's gonna run rough with that unplugged but that's
what I'm gonna use though I'm gonna let you guys on a tripod because it's a bit
hard to film up close and then if it's successful you probably should take some
smoked pork out of the back of their car now this has no exhaust leak so it might
actually port halfway through the car but yet so this is I'll just give you
guys this this would be this is the can they're not spray in there and it runs
through here into the intake and then hopefully steams their cylinders up and
shoots it out of the exhaust but let me guys working on a tripod and we'll go
from there and one side note is make sure no I'm
stating the obvious but make sure all the motors warmed up because you've got
to hold it to a nursery ground for till the cans empty so just make sure that
the mo is warmed up and you are not doing it on
a cop murder
we're back inside the beast let's see if it's fixed the hesitation still a sly
one
it's ten ten times better ten times better used to stumble and cough
I might have a little back leak or and I've got exhaust leaks I'm thinking
that's just now due to the exhaust leak but ISA stumbled from just under a
thousand all the way to sort of 1,500 and that's nice and crispy so if you
guys get a chance you guys get a chance it's something nice and simple just make
sure you follow instructions make sure you seek advice before you just go do it
by yourself if you haven't done it before but as you can tell it's made it
it's I'm actually quite happy to make such a difference on this and as you
would see by the early clip it will smoking out the exhaust so it's doing
what it's meant to be doing so yeah I would call this a success so that's
going to be it for today guys thanks for tuning in I hope you guys enjoy my array
