DIY How to Remove Plasti Dip

This is a DIY on how to remove plasti dip off your vehicle safely .

I recently plasti dip the center of my wheels and I wanted to remove the plasti dip . I found out that if you do not put alot of coats of the plasti dip then it will not peel off easily . 

After research I learned that Goo Gone for Automotive is safe for clear coats . This has citrus formula in it , 

It is good of you can find a spray bottle and pour the goo gone in the container so that you can spray and let the goo gone sit for about a minute to soak the plasti dip then it will be easily to wipe off . 

As you can see in this photo the plasti dip is peeling up .

As a final step I sprayed the wheels again with goo gone then gave a final wipe , from there I sprayed Dr. Mechanico to remove any grease or oil left behind , This degrease is safe for your wheels because it is organic degrease . It wont eat the oil from your hands like the other kinds .

Once you sprayed your degrease then you can wash with car soap and if you happen to spray the goo gone with your wheels on makes sure you degrease the rotors then take it for a test drive to make sure your brakes burn off any chemicals on the rotors .

DIY 93-97 Rear Motor Mount Replacement

 

This is a DIY for the rear motor mount .

 

 

For this DIY you need to raise your corolla real high so that you have room to work underneath it . You do not need anything to hold the engine up . 

 

First remove the muffler pipe bracket . Then you remove the center bolt of the rear mount .



Then you can remove the bolts to the rear motor mount and remove the bolts for the sub frame but DO NOT REMOVE THE SWAY BAR LINKS OR BALL JOINTS

The purpose of removing the sub frame bolts is so that you can pull it down and remove the rear motor mount while the sub frame is still hanging .

 

 

 

 

Then once you remove the rear motor mount you go in reverse to put it back on . But you can start by putting the center bolt then push up on the sub frame and put all the bolts back .

DIY 93 - 97 Corolla Right Front Motor Mount Replacement

 

 

This DIY is for the Motor Mount in the right front .

 

 

 

On some Corollas there is the cruise control that needs to come out because it sits on top of the mount and you need to remove the windshield washer fluid canister as well . Plus the top of the motor mount has a cap on it that needs to come off as well .

 

 

Now make sure you raise the one side of the car and place another floor jack to support the oil pan and to keep the engine from tilting . The motor mount bracket goes into the the timing belt area . That part you do not remove . All you have to do is go under the car and remove the 2 bolts that hold the motor mount to the bracket .

 

 

 

 

 

Then you can remove the upper bracket that holds the A/C line that goes over the mount , Then the other 3 bolts that hold the mount to the frame . No need to remove the center nut of the motor mount until it is off because you have no clearance .

 

 

Once you remove the motor mount then you can remove the center bolt of the motor mount and put it to the new one .

 

 

Then you can put everything back the same way you removed it .
