    Not bad, but pretty vague on some of your points. Bearing in mind that many folks who are looking at these videos for instruction know very little, you need more visual aids. SHOW the damaged ignition cables, cracked vacuum hoses, etc. And on charging systems; Elaborate for people. DC volts are only part of the equation. Not enough amps or more than 0.5VAC is a problem, the former requiring more than a $10 DVOM to check.

    @Rickxx8 He said that listening for the vacuum leak could save having a garage hook up a computer to tell you the same thing.

    @Styxxed He said look or listen for the vacuum leak. he didn't say the computer would tell you.

    It seems to me that a certified master technician would know there is no computer that will tell you a vacuum line is off... I dunno... the entire video is misleading... where is the part about finding an engine problem? Not much help, not much good information.

    Would have been more helpful if you could have zoomed in on the parts you were talking about. That would have been helpful for beginners. Thanks anyways!
