After finally cutting away the last stuck bolt, I can start to apply sealant to the underneath of the rear of the car, removing the axle again in preparation for rebuilding the rear brakes, axle and re-fitting the fuel tank. In this video I'm removing the axle and using Tetroseal underbody sealant to coat the arches and rear of the car to protect against future rust, corrosion, etc. Follow all the videos with #junkendriven and #volvo480 and please subscribe to the channel for more car restoration and repairs.

In this video, I show you how to repair a common problem with many of the Lay-Z-Spa (Bestway) inflatable hot tubs, that's where you have a water leak from inside the pump unit. This is on a Palm Spring airjet but the same process applies for many of the other versions, so if yours is a square or egg shaped pump this fix should help you repair and stop water leaking out from the main pump or heater areas. You can also control your hottub from your phone, laptop, computer and from anywhere in the world with my Hottubmanager add-on https://hottubmanager.co.uk/ Developed by myself for remote control of all the functions on your Bestway, Lay-Z-Spa, Coleman, Easybuy and many more inflatable hottubs.

This video shows you how I repair damage to the inflatable hot tub liner, if it's got an air or water leak (the repair is the same). Using rubber/vinyl repair kit and water sealant on the hole and using a repair patch. The whole process is straight forward and should repair almost any size hole or rip to your Lay-z-spa, Bestway, Coleman or any other type of inflatable hot tub liner/base. The parts I used in the video: https://amzn.to/3vtrHr4 - Lay-Z-Spa repair kit https://amzn.to/3F18xvL - Generic Sealant for Vinyl (and other materials) Do you want to remotely control your hot tub? Use your phone to set the temperature, turn the water pump on and off, get alerted of any error codes? Use my https://hottubmanager.co.uk/ unit and add it to any compatible hottub pump.

Changing the middle section pipe up to Catalytic converter on a 2008 (same with all up to 2014) Vauxhall (or Opel) Corsa petrol 1.2 You don't need anything special to do this, a few spanners, some exhaust paste and a replacement exhaust, look on ebay and you'll find the right exhaust for your Corsa. Oh, and a hammer, you always need a hammer! This is the same on practically any car! If you have ramps it makes access much easier to get underneath, otherwise just follow what I do in this video and it should be easy!
