A couple weeks ago I posted an oil cooler gas can mod. It got zero views on 3Speak but started doing well on Youtube. Really well actually. It was my most liked, commented and viewed video on Youtube to date! I was a little bummed I decided to delete it.
The video was up for 3 days and generated roughly 400 views, 17 comments and 9 likes. In the comments though several people voiced concern about where I placed the gas can. I felt the concerns were legitimate and decided to delete the videos both here and on Youtube.
I also felt you all deserved and explanation as to why I deleted the video and why I posted it in the first place. Obviously, the main concern in the comments was about safety. I somewhat agreed. I try not to post unsafe stuff though and I try not to post controversy. I felt some of the complaints were warranted and I decided to take the post down.
On top of that, I didn't like the finished product of this mod. I felt like it needed further securing. IMHO I didn't like the mounting hardware that came with it. I thought about reinforcing the mod to make it safer. I felt the mod could be made safe, but as it stood, more work needed to be done. I didn't want anyone to do a half assed mod and get hurt, so I deleted the video.
With that said, here's a a 3Speak of me explaining why I decided to delete it, and explaining a little bit more about the mounting hardware and my thoughts on it.
