Unsung Heroes, Salute to the "How To" Video Makers Options

[Ansbacher]

Now that I have dropped the engine and transaxle of my '74 2.0L, I have now had to face repairs I have never tackled before, like clutch and flywheel replacement, end play measurement, pushrod tube seals, front and rear main seals, transaxle seals, etc. etc.

I now realize I could never have taken on these tasks without referencing the many fine "how to" videos out there on You Tube, as the printed manuals leave a lot to be desired. I am truly indebted to the mechanics out there who selflessly record and narrate their repair procedures. I for one would never think of hassling with a cell phone or video recorder while my hands are deep in grease and grime. The guys that do this are indeed unsung heroes and I for one salute and thank them.

Special thanks to the following for their videos:

Thanks so much, guys. This community means so much to me and it feels great to give back.

The donate page Mark is referring to is my Patreon site. I set it up because a bunch of people asked me how they could return the favor...and, since I've been shooting and editing these myself, I figure I can use the donations to bring on some help and post more frequently. At the risk of sounding like a late-night pet adoption commercial...for just pennies a day, you can help this wrencher create more and better 914 content (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif). (Cue the sad Sarah Mclaughlin music).

The great thing about patreon is I can offer up other fun stuff to patrons...like live zoom chats from the garage, early access to new vdeos and bonus clips. Plus free swag!

Here's the link if youre interested:

As always, please LMK if you have any suggestions / critiques.

Thanks and enjoy!
