Re: Thirdgen Tech "How To" Videos
door pin ill keep in mind ... troubleshooting the trunk motor sounds like a vid i can do soon...
to get more clearance for the engine pan..you can rig a bar up on the strut mounts..OTC makes an engine holder where they do exactly that..take the mounts off, jack up the engine..and hold it in place with the strut tower bar...It will be tough to put a video together for this one..but i'll try

Re: Thirdgen Tech "How To" Videos
You can use a socket if need be to loosen it and then an open end wrench to open/close it as needed to bleed. Be careful though not to round it over.
I have something similar to this and it comes in handy for bleeding and also works for some batteries too. Kind of a go to tool that I keep handy. (IIRC, I spent less than $10 for mine.)

Re: Thirdgen Tech "How To" Videos
so I have to ask...is there monetary compensation you are receiving for these?
I have been seeing your videos pop up on my local craigslist, and I'm pretty sure you don't live near me
