Welp, finally got that new video done

[baloouriza@social.tulsa.ok.us]

@AdmiralMemo Only time I've ever had it come on was about 3 seconds after the timing chain in my EJ22 Subaru decided to fail catastrophically in the middle of US 169 in Tulsa. Damn near every valve got hammered shut and I had to import a junkyard engine from Japan, twice, to fix it.

@TechConnectify good work! I'm looking forward to watch this one!

@TechConnectify My pressure gage was just fine right up until there was a loud rattling and it lost power. Then it died. On the beach. With the tide coming in.

@TechConnectify I genuinely LOL’d hard at the drill gag. Good stuff.

@TechConnectify "Nissan Versa" might be in the running to beat my favorite "Liam Nissan" joke.

@TechConnectify I was just thinking that I hadn’t seen a new video in a while and was looking forward to when a new one would come out.

@TechConnectify An incredible video! As someone who's only seen a car's internals as they were being abused (or, more rarely, lovingly resuscitated) by Wade and James of Garbage Time, it's great to see a more sober and educational angle. Also, I've never seen a timing chain (the duo above hasn't dealt with engines that new), and I'd love to know why the timing chain tensioner is moving repeatedly. Does it have to do with the dynamic timing adjustment you said you wouldn't be getting into?

@TechConnectify This feels like it had even more unseen work behind than usual - wonderful work! and very informative.
We had to change our cars oil filter for the first time a while back and this explains some things (horrible job)

@TechConnectify

Oil Pressure is the only thing keeping an engine alive.

Tell that to VW, among others they fscked up big time on newer engines with variable oil pressure control.

Most companys now have ridiculously long oil change interval's and production swarf left in the engines.

Cleaning costs money.
us manufacturers are involved too..

@TechConnectify thank you for your hard work

@TechConnectify Not going to mention that time a certain military contractor did a 72 hour run-in on a submarine diesel and realised about 24 hours in that they forget to put any oil in.

wonderfull.

@bclindner @TechConnectify Oh I love this guy with all the videos about condensing, dehydrating, heating / cooling! ✨

@TechConnectify I’m convinced you said “Oiling can” just to avoid “oil can what?” jokes. 😁

[tiwe@infosec.exchange]

@TechConnectify nice video, i already knew most of it, looking forward to the next part.
little persnickety: what you show at 32:15 is not an o-ring because it is not a torus.

@TechConnectify if you had posted this in ~2005, I probably wouldn’t have murdered my ‘96 Honda Civic.
