Crankcase Vent Box Filter Change Video

Thought this was an interesting video and the tech reports at the end of the video that there is a TSB on these filters and is the reason it was changed. He does not specify the TSB number.

How about if there's build date reference so we would know which trucks came from the factory with the updated filter?

I just ordered a battery powered angle driver. That is the coolest tool I've seen in a long time!

Has anyone located the TSB for this? Mine will be in the shop this week. I would like to mention this to my service advisor but before I do I would like to know why the filter is being replaced.

I think the one in the video was 1/4" drive. What I thought was cool was the flexible socket.

Wobble sockets. At least that's what I've called them.

It wasn't that long ago that I abandoned air tools all together. These new cordless tools are so much more convenient and quiet. No dealing with charging and recharging the air tank. When I repainted the garage I was happy to remove all that schedule 40 pipe running along the walls. No more dealing with water separators and oiling the tool. No more waiting for the compressor to stop just so I can make a video. The only thing I use the garage air for now is filling tires or blowing out sprinkler heads and other stuff.

A cordless ratchet would be nice. But requiring a battery that is completely different from all my other cordless tools would not be nice. I have a set of batteries that I rotate through with one battery always on the charger.

Apparently we share the same tool disease.

The new cordless hand tools are simply fantastic and battery life is very impressive.
I keep my air lines also however for metal air cut-off tool and air die grinder for heavier metal work. Although I should switch to cordless I do still use my air impact for lug nuts and rusted yard/farm equipment.

The bummer for these is needing ear protection for all the air tools, they are painfully loud to my ears.

I have a flex shaft socket attachment for 1/4 in but find I have to be very careful using it as unless the shaft is restricted it wants to flop or pull the socket off the nut. It's not much good for loosening or tightening at higher torques but works well at slow speeds for getting through most of the threads.

We need a favorite unusual tool thread on here someplace.

I got a cheap half inch electric impact wrench from Harbor Freight just for lug nuts. It's a lot stronger than any of my air wrenches ever were and I use it all the time. $49 a few years ago and it just keeps going and going. It came with a set of replacement brushes which are sitting in a drawer. Funny thing about crappy tools is you can abuse them without worry. I toss it back and forth under the truck/car on the cement driveway with nary a concern.
