Fixing Up My Brothers Rusty Element

I recently purchased 2 Honda Elements. One of those Elements is going to my brother. I wanted to fix it up before I gave it to him and in this video I cover that work.

In this video I replace the rear bumper, exhaust system, serpentine belt, spark plugs, O2 sensors, roof rack(s), brake fluid, clutch fluid, manual transmission fluid, rear differential fluid, cabin air filters, engine air filter, pressure test the cooling system, battery test, battery hold down repair, and I add some rust protection to help prevent further corrosion.

There’s a lot packed into this episode. Be sure to watch the entire thing.

Thanks for watching!
