      Not really a huge difference in cooling although I haven’t taken any crazy long trips while extreme temperatures… but I will say I like that it floats in front away from the radiator which gives it more room to breathe which is a good feature. It is a bigger cooler, and I like the way it’s mounted better. So all in all, I would go this route over any other option on the market. - Sean

    Thanks again for this video!!! I'm also using the car care nut video, which is more concise at about 30 minutes. That's a great overview one, and this one is a great detailed process video with many tips and tricks. The CCN says to use the T on the cams for the timing marks and the corresponsing small mark on the crank. I'm half way through and about to remove the timing belt. I tried an air hammer to get the crank bolt loose, but I had to use a chain wrench braced against the frame, and then a breaker bar with a large extension pipe that fits on the end and a smaller extension bar inside of that for about a four foot length. It took a lot of torque! My thoughts on the camshafts rotating: I experienced this when doing the timing belt on my 99 CRV. I had to use the wrench on the camshaft trick too. When you're at TDC you'll have all valves closed for some cylinders, but others will be at BDC and so will be "on lobe". That would make the valve springs want to make the camshaft rotate. You want a neutral position where there's either no valve pressure on the cam lobes (don't know if that's possible), or a position where it's equalized for rotation each way. I'm presuming that's where the "T" position is. Hope it works out ok for me.

      You're welcome, Craig. The Car Care Nut guy might have over a million subscribers, but he's got nothing on us when it comes to the detail we offer in our videos. When people get lost from another Toyota DIY Channel's video, they come to us for help. Thanks for verifying the T position works like many others before you have already told us. I hope the rest of the job goes smoothly for you. Happy Wrenching!

    Best thing you can do is remove the parking brake altogether so you don’t have to deal with them ever again and then they won’t rub against inside rotor either plus who uses a parking brake nowadays ?

    • @TimmyTheToolman
      @TimmyTheToolman 7 днів тому

      Interesting perspective. What would you do if you parked on a hill? Or you were off-roading and you needed some braking help from the e-brake? We wouldn’t recommend removing any of the safety features from your vehicle. - Sean

    • @TimmyTheToolman
      @TimmyTheToolman 7 днів тому

      In addition to what Sean said, it's bad to rest the weight of your vehicle on the parking pawl. With enough repeated force, that pawl can shear and now you're looking at either spending a ton of time to fix it, or a ton of money to fix it. Your parking brake is what should hold the vehicle from moving, not your transmission. Something to think about Bro. No charge for the wisdom we imparted to you today. - Timmy

      Yeah, do a drain and refill, and then do another one in around 5k miles. Do a 3rd one in another 5k miles, and your fluid should be in good shape. After that, do a drain and refill every other engine oil change or every 10k miles, and your transmission will have a much longer life.
