1 00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:03,320 Speaker 1: Ronan as my boss way back when in the gas station, 2 00:00:03,360 --> 00:00:05,560 Speaker 1: always told me. He said, you know, you always start 3 00:00:05,559 --> 00:00:09,120 Speaker 1: a diagnosis at the beginning. You always begin at step one, 4 00:00:09,280 --> 00:00:27,000 Speaker 1: regardless of the car Doctor. If you're not careful, you're 5 00:00:27,000 --> 00:00:29,400 Speaker 1: gonna make a giant electromagnet. If you wrap the coils 6 00:00:29,400 --> 00:00:31,800 Speaker 1: of wire around the steel and then pass voltage through it. 7 00:00:31,840 --> 00:00:34,360 Speaker 1: At some point you're gonna magnetize something and on a 8 00:00:34,400 --> 00:00:37,560 Speaker 1: computer car in the wrong situation.

We just want to know 36 00:01:58,640 --> 00:02:00,360 Speaker 1: that let her know that we know she's listening today, 37 00:02:00,400 --> 00:02:01,720 Speaker 1: that we love her, and that we want to see 38 00:02:01,720 --> 00:02:04,680 Speaker 1: your back in action and the local supermarket missrs her 39 00:02:05,240 --> 00:02:09,160 Speaker 1: so um and that's really the truth too. Everybody asks. 40 00:02:10,040 --> 00:02:12,200 Speaker 1: Had a two thousand four to Conoline come into the 41 00:02:12,200 --> 00:02:15,440 Speaker 1: shop this week at Ori outa motive and it was 42 00:02:15,480 --> 00:02:20,240 Speaker 1: suffering from misfire. It has a misfire issue at random. 43 00:02:20,280 --> 00:02:24,920 Speaker 1: And here's a classic example of why well misfire isn't 44 00:02:24,919 --> 00:02:28,080 Speaker 1: always what you think it's gonna be. Ignition had been 45 00:02:28,080 --> 00:02:30,720 Speaker 1: done and had fresh plugs and had fresh ignition wires 46 00:02:30,720 --> 00:02:32,920 Speaker 1: and a coil pack, and since most of the ignition 47 00:02:32,960 --> 00:02:35,040 Speaker 1: had been replaced, it was time to really diagnose the 48 00:02:35,040 --> 00:02:37,480 Speaker 1: problem and try and catch it in the act. And 49 00:02:37,919 --> 00:02:40,079 Speaker 1: the first thing I did, after pulling codes and going 50 00:02:40,080 --> 00:02:42,480 Speaker 1: through the usual diagnosis and the looks and the visuals 51 00:02:43,320 --> 00:02:46,840 Speaker 1: is road tested. Yep, sure does light tip in throttle 52 00:02:46,919 --> 00:02:49,240 Speaker 1: the car was the truck would start to break up 53 00:02:49,280 --> 00:02:54,480 Speaker 1: and buck and and and just not run right. Check 54 00:02:54,520 --> 00:02:56,600 Speaker 1: engine light came on. It was setting P zero three 55 00:02:57,200 --> 00:03:00,400 Speaker 1: zero three oh two P zero three oh four. Boult 56 00:03:00,440 --> 00:03:06,480 Speaker 1: codes ended up from my next step disconnecting the e 57 00:03:06,600 --> 00:03:09,360 Speaker 1: g R valve. That's right, this is a four point 58 00:03:09,360 --> 00:03:13,240 Speaker 1: two leader Ford V six And there's some special things 59 00:03:13,240 --> 00:03:15,440 Speaker 1: you need to know about a four two Ford just 60 00:03:15,480 --> 00:03:17,639 Speaker 1: like the three point eight four. They both have one 61 00:03:17,760 --> 00:03:21,960 Speaker 1: very common failure in common. And knowing that I went 62 00:03:22,040 --> 00:03:23,639 Speaker 1: right after the e g R unplugged the e g 63 00:03:23,800 --> 00:03:27,600 Speaker 1: R album, my problem went away. Absolutely ran perfect, actually 64 00:03:27,680 --> 00:03:29,640 Speaker 1: ran really good, actually ran better at idle than it 65 00:03:29,680 --> 00:03:32,160 Speaker 1: did with the g R valve connected in the g 66 00:03:32,240 --> 00:03:34,320 Speaker 1: R valve isn't even doing anything at idol, or so 67 00:03:34,400 --> 00:03:38,760 Speaker 1: it seemed in my mind it was time to pull 68 00:03:38,800 --> 00:03:42,080 Speaker 1: the intake manifold. Why, let me tell you the tale. 69 00:03:43,680 --> 00:03:46,520 Speaker 1: Once I knew that the g R flow was affecting 70 00:03:46,680 --> 00:03:49,800 Speaker 1: the misfires and how the vehicle was running, it was 71 00:03:49,840 --> 00:03:51,840 Speaker 1: time to take a look at something very unique to 72 00:03:51,880 --> 00:03:54,040 Speaker 1: these these engines, the four twos and the three eighths, 73 00:03:54,280 --> 00:03:58,160 Speaker 1: the e g R feed ports under the intake planum. 74 00:03:58,640 --> 00:04:01,320 Speaker 1: What Ford did was they inject e g R exhaust 75 00:04:01,360 --> 00:04:06,040 Speaker 1: guests back into the intake charge directly through the intake manifold. 76 00:04:06,360 --> 00:04:10,880 Speaker 1: And they're very tiny orifices, very small eighth inch drilled 77 00:04:10,880 --> 00:04:15,119 Speaker 1: bit or smaller. And what happens is over time they 78 00:04:15,160 --> 00:04:17,960 Speaker 1: tend to carbon up, and there's no real way to 79 00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:23,960 Speaker 1: clean them other than remove the intake manifold. A hesitant customer, 80 00:04:24,120 --> 00:04:26,360 Speaker 1: I got approval. They were looking to see where we 81 00:04:26,360 --> 00:04:30,360 Speaker 1: were going, but I got them to approve it, pulled 82 00:04:30,360 --> 00:04:33,360 Speaker 1: the intake manifold plan them off, and sure enough, four 83 00:04:33,440 --> 00:04:37,160 Speaker 1: of the six e g R ports were plugged solid. 84 00:04:37,680 --> 00:04:42,279 Speaker 1: A fifth one was kind of like a clogged artery 85 00:04:43,240 --> 00:04:45,800 Speaker 1: sort of like um too much crumb cake with with 86 00:04:45,839 --> 00:04:47,600 Speaker 1: butter that I was telling the boys about before the 87 00:04:47,600 --> 00:04:49,920 Speaker 1: show tonight. I'll tell you that story in a little bit. 88 00:04:49,960 --> 00:04:55,680 Speaker 1: Stick around and cleaning the four ports, cleaning the fifth port, 89 00:04:56,160 --> 00:04:57,919 Speaker 1: making sure the e g R was good. By the 90 00:04:57,920 --> 00:04:59,280 Speaker 1: way we to clean it. We took the e g 91 00:04:59,400 --> 00:05:01,320 Speaker 1: R Valvo and I had Danny stand there with a 92 00:05:01,400 --> 00:05:04,200 Speaker 1: rag and some glasses and hold his hand against the 93 00:05:04,360 --> 00:05:07,280 Speaker 1: port and I blew air backwards after soaking it with 94 00:05:07,320 --> 00:05:10,560 Speaker 1: some top end engine cleaner, and the chunks of carbon 95 00:05:10,560 --> 00:05:14,479 Speaker 1: that came out of this were just unbelievable. Put it 96 00:05:14,520 --> 00:05:16,760 Speaker 1: all back together. You know what, That's the best running 97 00:05:16,760 --> 00:05:18,680 Speaker 1: four point two four V six I've seen in a 98 00:05:18,720 --> 00:05:21,200 Speaker 1: long long time. It's solved the problem. When I handed 99 00:05:21,200 --> 00:05:23,200 Speaker 1: it back to the customer, I explained to everything to him, 100 00:05:23,240 --> 00:05:26,000 Speaker 1: and he said, gee, I always thought misfire was ignition, 101 00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:29,240 Speaker 1: And I said, nope, misfire isn't always ignition. There's other 102 00:05:29,279 --> 00:05:31,960 Speaker 1: things that can do it. Now. Here's the bottom line. 103 00:05:32,160 --> 00:05:37,960 Speaker 1: Here's why it creates the misfire. An engine a cylinder 104 00:05:38,400 --> 00:05:41,400 Speaker 1: has to have so much air, so much fuel per 105 00:05:41,520 --> 00:05:45,799 Speaker 1: cylinder to run evenly. If one cylinder. If a fuel 106 00:05:45,800 --> 00:05:48,480 Speaker 1: injector died, that cylinder is not going to contribute right 107 00:05:48,920 --> 00:05:51,360 Speaker 1: there's no or there's not enough combustion there. If it's 108 00:05:51,400 --> 00:05:54,880 Speaker 1: partially restricted, the cylinder won't be able to run even 109 00:05:54,920 --> 00:05:56,919 Speaker 1: with the others. In the case of the e g 110 00:05:57,200 --> 00:06:02,440 Speaker 1: R ports being restricted, it the ports that were restricted, 111 00:06:02,560 --> 00:06:05,960 Speaker 1: we're backing up e g R and forcing more volume 112 00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:09,039 Speaker 1: to come out the ones that were open, So you 113 00:06:09,080 --> 00:06:12,960 Speaker 1: were washing out one or two of the other cylinders 114 00:06:13,360 --> 00:06:16,320 Speaker 1: with e g R that the computer couldn't compensate for 115 00:06:16,360 --> 00:06:19,080 Speaker 1: it because it can see that difference. It can see 116 00:06:19,080 --> 00:06:22,000 Speaker 1: that in balance, it can only react to the misfire 117 00:06:22,040 --> 00:06:24,320 Speaker 1: and the stumble that's created when the e g R 118 00:06:24,400 --> 00:06:27,440 Speaker 1: when the exhaust gas is washing out the air fuel 119 00:06:27,520 --> 00:06:30,920 Speaker 1: charge going into those particular cylinders that weren't clogged yet. 120 00:06:31,640 --> 00:06:34,640 Speaker 1: Unplugging the e g R took the exhaust gas away 121 00:06:34,680 --> 00:06:37,800 Speaker 1: from the cylinders and allow the vehicle to run even 122 00:06:37,800 --> 00:06:41,360 Speaker 1: which told me this wasn't something ignition or fuel. This 123 00:06:41,480 --> 00:06:45,120 Speaker 1: was something else affecting one of those two. And that's 124 00:06:45,120 --> 00:06:47,839 Speaker 1: how I got to the point where the misfire fault 125 00:06:48,120 --> 00:06:52,240 Speaker 1: was related from exhaust gas e g R failure on 126 00:06:52,320 --> 00:06:55,240 Speaker 1: that particular engine, but something very common. Four point twos 127 00:06:55,240 --> 00:06:57,200 Speaker 1: and three point eight's a lot of the wind Stars, 128 00:06:57,200 --> 00:06:59,279 Speaker 1: a lot of the Freestyles, all those they all have 129 00:06:59,360 --> 00:07:01,840 Speaker 1: that particular engine. If you're suffering from that and your 130 00:07:01,880 --> 00:07:04,600 Speaker 1: mechanic can't find it, I'll disconnect the g R valve 131 00:07:04,600 --> 00:07:06,600 Speaker 1: and watch what happens. Hello, and welcome Ron and any 132 00:07:06,640 --> 00:07:10,080 Speaker 1: in the car doctor here.

Well, 161 00:08:23,400 --> 00:08:26,400 Speaker 1: several weeks ago, I think about two weeks ago now, 162 00:08:26,480 --> 00:08:29,400 Speaker 1: you were talking about a GMC that had a dash 163 00:08:29,480 --> 00:08:33,800 Speaker 1: light problem, light flickering, things went on. Remember that, And 164 00:08:33,800 --> 00:08:36,840 Speaker 1: and I've been having a very similar problem with a 165 00:08:36,880 --> 00:08:43,079 Speaker 1: two thousand five. Uh, drive down the road, all my 166 00:08:43,200 --> 00:08:45,800 Speaker 1: dash lights will go on, o'domino will go to zero speed, 167 00:08:45,800 --> 00:08:49,400 Speaker 1: dooma will go to zero, the o'dominant, the triple Dominano 168 00:08:49,440 --> 00:08:54,520 Speaker 1: will flash and go blank, truck runs great, uh full 169 00:08:54,520 --> 00:08:57,160 Speaker 1: will drive light will come on. You know, the whole 170 00:08:57,240 --> 00:09:00,280 Speaker 1: dash lights up to tell you everything is wrong. There's 171 00:09:00,280 --> 00:09:02,800 Speaker 1: no reason the truck should be running. So you were 172 00:09:02,800 --> 00:09:06,760 Speaker 1: talking about a bad ground. So I've been looking and 173 00:09:06,800 --> 00:09:08,800 Speaker 1: this has been going on for a while, but you know, 174 00:09:08,920 --> 00:09:12,720 Speaker 1: keep okay, maybe I'll try to find it. Um. This 175 00:09:13,160 --> 00:09:16,440 Speaker 1: mine has one other kind of strange thing, and that 176 00:09:16,600 --> 00:09:18,480 Speaker 1: is if you pound on the dash with your fist, 177 00:09:18,520 --> 00:09:22,160 Speaker 1: everything comes back and works great. Well, so I took 178 00:09:24,120 --> 00:09:26,199 Speaker 1: like Mom always said, if it doesn't work, hit it 179 00:09:26,240 --> 00:09:29,000 Speaker 1: a little bit. Yeah, And so I took you to 180 00:09:29,000 --> 00:09:33,440 Speaker 1: my forward garage out of frustration. And uh they they 181 00:09:33,480 --> 00:09:35,440 Speaker 1: said they'd run the codes, and then they came back 182 00:09:35,440 --> 00:09:37,640 Speaker 1: out and I was kind of disappointed. I mean, they 183 00:09:37,720 --> 00:09:39,680 Speaker 1: charged me for running in. It's quite expensive to hook 184 00:09:39,720 --> 00:09:42,560 Speaker 1: it up. And they said, we can't tell you anything, 185 00:09:42,800 --> 00:09:45,040 Speaker 1: and I said, what do you mean it's secret? And 186 00:09:45,080 --> 00:09:47,040 Speaker 1: he says no, we got so many fall codes. He says, 187 00:09:47,080 --> 00:09:49,320 Speaker 1: we can't tell the difference between any of them. So 188 00:09:49,400 --> 00:09:52,840 Speaker 1: we cleared the machine and come back later. All right, Well, 189 00:09:52,880 --> 00:09:54,679 Speaker 1: and yeah, and you know what, if they're if they're 190 00:09:54,720 --> 00:09:57,040 Speaker 1: a good shop, and if they're really if they've really 191 00:09:57,040 --> 00:09:59,560 Speaker 1: got your best interest in heart, in my opinion, they're 192 00:09:59,559 --> 00:10:01,880 Speaker 1: gonna run that scan again, no charge, just to just 193 00:10:01,920 --> 00:10:05,840 Speaker 1: to continue the diagnosis. There. Well, they offered me a fix, right, 194 00:10:06,600 --> 00:10:09,199 Speaker 1: They said, we think you ought to replace your dashboard 195 00:10:09,240 --> 00:10:11,160 Speaker 1: circuit board. I'll take it off in place, the whole 196 00:10:11,240 --> 00:10:16,240 Speaker 1: dash and they said that will be and I gulped 197 00:10:16,240 --> 00:10:19,360 Speaker 1: and said, well, okay, I gotta ask you. Will it 198 00:10:19,440 --> 00:10:23,680 Speaker 1: fix the prop and they said and they said maybe. 199 00:10:24,040 --> 00:10:26,800 Speaker 1: Well yeah, they said maybe. And you know, even though 200 00:10:26,840 --> 00:10:30,719 Speaker 1: there was multiple codes, what codes were they? Did they 201 00:10:30,720 --> 00:10:33,240 Speaker 1: write any of them down? I hope? I hope No. 202 00:10:33,800 --> 00:10:35,720 Speaker 1: I wasn't that lucky. So now I'm looking for I'm 203 00:10:35,720 --> 00:10:37,640 Speaker 1: gonna try to find some other guys that will run 204 00:10:37,679 --> 00:10:40,880 Speaker 1: them and give me the list because they couldn't get 205 00:10:40,880 --> 00:10:42,280 Speaker 1: me a print out. But what I ended up with 206 00:10:42,400 --> 00:10:44,240 Speaker 1: is nothing. I'm gonna give you the list. I'm gonna 207 00:10:44,240 --> 00:10:45,880 Speaker 1: give you the list of what you'll probably see. You 208 00:10:45,920 --> 00:10:49,440 Speaker 1: got a pencil. These are all you codes you as 209 00:10:49,480 --> 00:10:52,560 Speaker 1: in Utah, and they're all they're all communication faults. And 210 00:10:52,600 --> 00:10:55,760 Speaker 1: that's typically what we say all right, they're gonna be 211 00:10:55,880 --> 00:11:07,360 Speaker 1: nifty and probably three two O two three three. And 212 00:11:07,640 --> 00:11:11,400 Speaker 1: what those point towards is problems with communication on the 213 00:11:11,440 --> 00:11:16,880 Speaker 1: instrument cluster or the instrument cluster wiring and or bus. Now, 214 00:11:17,040 --> 00:11:19,520 Speaker 1: this could be a problem with fuse twenty one, which 215 00:11:19,559 --> 00:11:22,440 Speaker 1: is very common with these trucks. It stops, it stops 216 00:11:22,480 --> 00:11:24,319 Speaker 1: carrying the loader, it has a poor connection, or it 217 00:11:24,400 --> 00:11:28,240 Speaker 1: vibrates looser, it gets corroded, or other half a dozen things. 218 00:11:28,240 --> 00:11:30,400 Speaker 1: And you know, the simplest thing to do is the 219 00:11:30,440 --> 00:11:33,040 Speaker 1: next time the problem happens, go down the fusee. Do 220 00:11:33,080 --> 00:11:35,520 Speaker 1: you have power on both sides? Do you have power 221 00:11:35,600 --> 00:11:38,360 Speaker 1: coming out of the fuse box? And if they really 222 00:11:38,360 --> 00:11:41,199 Speaker 1: wanted to diagnose this, go up and grab the wire 223 00:11:41,240 --> 00:11:43,880 Speaker 1: that fuse twenty one feeds and check for power there 224 00:11:43,920 --> 00:11:46,160 Speaker 1: at the moment of failure. At least if we can 225 00:11:46,280 --> 00:11:50,160 Speaker 1: verify power on that circuit, we know the cluster is 226 00:11:50,200 --> 00:11:55,160 Speaker 1: being fed proper voltage. Kind of important, all right, Okay, 227 00:11:55,480 --> 00:11:59,320 Speaker 1: number one, number two, there are known problems with the 228 00:11:59,400 --> 00:12:03,880 Speaker 1: connector that plugs into the harness for the cluster on 229 00:12:03,920 --> 00:12:06,400 Speaker 1: the Internet, But I don't always trust the Internet. Yeah, Now, 230 00:12:06,440 --> 00:12:09,520 Speaker 1: that's that's that's that's common, and then the most common 231 00:12:09,559 --> 00:12:14,640 Speaker 1: failure is the cluster. But before we just blindly replace it, 232 00:12:15,679 --> 00:12:17,640 Speaker 1: you can if you want to do an internet search, 233 00:12:18,200 --> 00:12:20,880 Speaker 1: you can find you know, there are there are companies 234 00:12:20,920 --> 00:12:23,760 Speaker 1: out there that will test and then refurbish the cluster 235 00:12:24,200 --> 00:12:26,440 Speaker 1: in exchange, and I dare to think they're cheaper than 236 00:12:27,920 --> 00:12:30,480 Speaker 1: and at least run it through an electronic analysis where 237 00:12:30,520 --> 00:12:33,079 Speaker 1: they'll put it on a circuit board tester for X 238 00:12:33,200 --> 00:12:36,160 Speaker 1: number of hours and usually the failure happens when it 239 00:12:36,160 --> 00:12:38,080 Speaker 1: gets hot. I'm willing to bet that you've been driving 240 00:12:38,080 --> 00:12:42,600 Speaker 1: a while or extreme cold one or the other and 241 00:12:43,120 --> 00:12:44,880 Speaker 1: it's and that'll be the tell and that's going to 242 00:12:44,960 --> 00:12:46,640 Speaker 1: tell you that, yeah, it's the cluster. But they can 243 00:12:46,640 --> 00:12:50,439 Speaker 1: test it and catch the failure right there in the act. Okay, 244 00:12:50,640 --> 00:12:54,680 Speaker 1: now I saw on the internet some some talk about 245 00:12:54,880 --> 00:13:01,079 Speaker 1: cold saw joints. Yeah, cold cold cold solder joints break 246 00:13:01,080 --> 00:13:03,400 Speaker 1: apart and fall apart, and they become a real issue 247 00:13:03,679 --> 00:13:06,800 Speaker 1: and they do exactly what you're describing. So that's why 248 00:13:06,840 --> 00:13:09,280 Speaker 1: I say, let's do the um let's do the search 249 00:13:09,320 --> 00:13:11,719 Speaker 1: on the internet and take a look at that and 250 00:13:11,760 --> 00:13:14,160 Speaker 1: go from there. James, I'm here if you need me, babe, 251 00:13:14,679 --> 00:13:17,960 Speaker 1: more information coming. Just do those simple tests and we'll 252 00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:20,199 Speaker 1: talk afterwards. I'm runing any in the car Doctor. I'm 253 00:13:20,200 --> 00:13:48,400 Speaker 1: back right after this. Yeah, welcome back the car Doctor. 254 00:13:48,480 --> 00:13:51,960 Speaker 1: Rolling along the Saturday zero nine zero zero coming up 255 00:13:51,960 --> 00:13:53,920 Speaker 1: a little bit later. Right at the bottom, we're gonna 256 00:13:53,960 --> 00:13:56,600 Speaker 1: go over and talk to Rob Stuff from Motor Medic 257 00:13:56,880 --> 00:13:59,280 Speaker 1: Fuel Pro System Complete and talk about carbon cleaning and 258 00:13:59,320 --> 00:14:00,880 Speaker 1: all of that untail. So you want to stick around 259 00:14:00,880 --> 00:14:02,760 Speaker 1: for that. Right now, let's get over and talk to 260 00:14:02,800 --> 00:14:05,559 Speaker 1: Mark out in Iowa two thousand a Toyota avalon. Mark, 261 00:14:05,600 --> 00:14:06,880 Speaker 1: you're on with the Car Doctor, Sir, How can I 262 00:14:06,920 --> 00:14:10,120 Speaker 1: help hi? Right? Thanks for taking the call. You're welcome. 263 00:14:10,120 --> 00:14:14,559 Speaker 1: What's going on? Well? Oh? Wait to have on that? 264 00:14:15,000 --> 00:14:18,480 Speaker 1: UM got about two on it. Bought it three years 265 00:14:18,520 --> 00:14:24,640 Speaker 1: ago at forty never had a change in transmission fluid, 266 00:14:24,960 --> 00:14:27,240 Speaker 1: and after listening to your shows, to be honest, I 267 00:14:27,240 --> 00:14:32,480 Speaker 1: started thinking that maybe doing that uh and it still unit. 268 00:14:32,520 --> 00:14:34,560 Speaker 1: So I can't tell what it looks like because it's film. 269 00:14:34,560 --> 00:14:37,200 Speaker 1: It's okay to do, but I have a local shop 270 00:14:38,080 --> 00:14:46,400 Speaker 1: that one that uh has not Toyota produced automatic fluid. 271 00:14:47,000 --> 00:14:50,440 Speaker 1: Now they say it's just as good. And non friction. 272 00:14:51,040 --> 00:14:52,720 Speaker 1: I go on and give you the names. You can 273 00:14:52,720 --> 00:14:57,280 Speaker 1: stick freely, but it's manufactured by somebody else, and you 274 00:14:57,400 --> 00:14:59,800 Speaker 1: can't get any can't get the Toyota fluid. I should 275 00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:01,360 Speaker 1: want to know if I should be going to the deal. 276 00:15:01,400 --> 00:15:05,120 Speaker 1: And well, let's let's start back. Let's start back a minute. 277 00:15:05,120 --> 00:15:06,720 Speaker 1: Mark tell me who it is. It doesn't matter. I'm 278 00:15:06,720 --> 00:15:10,080 Speaker 1: gonna pick on everybody equally, all right. He says, fifty 279 00:15:10,120 --> 00:15:15,040 Speaker 1: gallon uh drum made by Peak okay um? Is it 280 00:15:15,160 --> 00:15:19,320 Speaker 1: rated for Toyota? I don't know, But he says he's 281 00:15:19,400 --> 00:15:23,240 Speaker 1: had avalons many times. I have put this stuff in 282 00:15:23,320 --> 00:15:28,880 Speaker 1: dozens of avalons, full exchange and no problems, including older models. 283 00:15:29,320 --> 00:15:31,920 Speaker 1: Mm hmm. You know I used to get sties as 284 00:15:31,920 --> 00:15:35,160 Speaker 1: a kid. And one doctor wanted to shoot a laser 285 00:15:35,160 --> 00:15:37,400 Speaker 1: beam in my eye. The other doctor wanted to shoot 286 00:15:37,400 --> 00:15:39,120 Speaker 1: a laser beam in my ear, and the other doctor 287 00:15:39,200 --> 00:15:40,760 Speaker 1: wanted to give me a little white pill and see 288 00:15:40,760 --> 00:15:44,560 Speaker 1: what happened. Um. You know, none of them were scientific 289 00:15:44,600 --> 00:15:47,320 Speaker 1: about it. They were just taking guesses. Chances are I 290 00:15:47,320 --> 00:15:48,920 Speaker 1: went with a little white pill and it worked out. 291 00:15:48,920 --> 00:15:52,160 Speaker 1: But I was lucky. Um and and and while that's 292 00:15:52,160 --> 00:15:53,440 Speaker 1: a little bit of a stretch of the truth of 293 00:15:53,480 --> 00:15:57,040 Speaker 1: what actually happened. My point is that if it's not 294 00:15:57,280 --> 00:16:01,000 Speaker 1: rated for the vehicle, why are we taking the chance 295 00:16:01,000 --> 00:16:05,080 Speaker 1: when it's easy enough to get something that is you know, 296 00:16:05,760 --> 00:16:08,200 Speaker 1: you know the confer And this isn't just with regards 297 00:16:08,240 --> 00:16:11,480 Speaker 1: to trans fluid market. This is everything you know, it's 298 00:16:11,720 --> 00:16:14,720 Speaker 1: it's the temptation of the cheaper part or the cheaper 299 00:16:14,760 --> 00:16:21,200 Speaker 1: repair is always dulled by the thrill of failure three months, 300 00:16:21,200 --> 00:16:25,479 Speaker 1: six months, eight months down the road or the next day. 301 00:16:26,040 --> 00:16:30,400 Speaker 1: Doesn't make sense. If you were trying to restore and 302 00:16:30,440 --> 00:16:31,920 Speaker 1: you needed a widget and you can only get a 303 00:16:31,960 --> 00:16:34,200 Speaker 1: what's it? Yeah, I tell you, use the what's it? 304 00:16:34,200 --> 00:16:36,880 Speaker 1: It's close, see if it works. But this is something 305 00:16:36,920 --> 00:16:40,480 Speaker 1: that parts are readily available. It's it's it's not an issue. 306 00:16:40,720 --> 00:16:42,560 Speaker 1: And though I know you know, and I hear shops 307 00:16:42,560 --> 00:16:46,200 Speaker 1: talk about this, the scientific approach of well, I did 308 00:16:46,280 --> 00:16:48,120 Speaker 1: it on everything else, it must work on this one. 309 00:16:48,720 --> 00:16:50,600 Speaker 1: Ask him listen. If the trans fails, are you willing 310 00:16:50,640 --> 00:16:53,280 Speaker 1: to pay for it? That'll change it to him? I 311 00:16:53,280 --> 00:16:55,520 Speaker 1: love this, Yeah, I get it. I love this. I 312 00:16:55,600 --> 00:17:01,000 Speaker 1: don't know, you know, you've a thousand I don't want 313 00:17:01,000 --> 00:17:03,320 Speaker 1: to mess it up right, You know there there there 314 00:17:03,320 --> 00:17:08,280 Speaker 1: are enough choices out there. I Metzu is the brand name. 315 00:17:08,600 --> 00:17:12,640 Speaker 1: They make Toyota Type four fluid. Toyota makes Toyota Type 316 00:17:12,640 --> 00:17:16,800 Speaker 1: four fluid. Um. You know, Pen's Oil makes Toyota Type 317 00:17:16,800 --> 00:17:19,879 Speaker 1: four fluid. Toyota. I mean, Penn's Oil actually makes multi 318 00:17:19,960 --> 00:17:22,679 Speaker 1: vehicle a t F that will meet the requirements for 319 00:17:22,720 --> 00:17:26,120 Speaker 1: this vehicle. I've got a lot more confidence using that 320 00:17:26,600 --> 00:17:30,680 Speaker 1: than something from a vehicle manufacturer parts manufacturer that says, well, 321 00:17:30,880 --> 00:17:33,399 Speaker 1: you know, it's sort of general use fits all, but 322 00:17:33,440 --> 00:17:35,000 Speaker 1: we're not gonna tell you what vehicles it fits. You 323 00:17:35,040 --> 00:17:37,200 Speaker 1: have to guess. And I'm not beating up peak. I'm 324 00:17:37,240 --> 00:17:40,359 Speaker 1: just saying it doesn't make any sense to me. Uh, 325 00:17:40,400 --> 00:17:42,719 Speaker 1: you know, you wouldn't. You wouldn't do that, You wouldn't 326 00:17:42,760 --> 00:17:44,640 Speaker 1: want to take that chance. And I understand where you're 327 00:17:44,640 --> 00:17:47,960 Speaker 1: coming from, and changing trans fluid is just too many 328 00:17:48,000 --> 00:17:51,080 Speaker 1: problems and the potential for issues, uh that could occur. 329 00:17:51,200 --> 00:17:53,080 Speaker 1: I don't want to see it happen. Hey, I'll tell 330 00:17:53,080 --> 00:17:54,800 Speaker 1: you what, Mark stand the line. We're gonna help you 331 00:17:54,800 --> 00:17:57,120 Speaker 1: pay for that trans fluid.

Hey, coming up next, Rob Stuck and 348 00:18:36,800 --> 00:18:40,119 Speaker 1: the folks from Motor Medic Fuel Pro System Complete and 349 00:18:40,320 --> 00:18:42,240 Speaker 1: we'll talk a little bit about carbon cleaning. So stick 350 00:18:42,280 --> 00:19:05,480 Speaker 1: around the car doctors back right after this. Hey, Hey, listeners, 351 00:19:05,520 --> 00:19:07,359 Speaker 1: welcome back Ron Indian the car doctor here. You know, 352 00:19:07,920 --> 00:19:11,720 Speaker 1: we're talk an awful lot about fuel and what it 353 00:19:11,760 --> 00:19:15,160 Speaker 1: does to today's cars, and the problems with carbon deposits, 354 00:19:15,160 --> 00:19:16,919 Speaker 1: and ways that we can take care of our cars 355 00:19:17,280 --> 00:19:19,880 Speaker 1: and improve their performance and mileage, and a whole bunch 356 00:19:19,880 --> 00:19:21,520 Speaker 1: of other things, and we thought we would reach out 357 00:19:21,920 --> 00:19:24,399 Speaker 1: to the industry leader at the moment, Rob Stuck. He 358 00:19:24,440 --> 00:19:27,400 Speaker 1: is the category manager at RSC Chemical Solutions in Indian Trail, 359 00:19:27,480 --> 00:19:30,320 Speaker 1: North Carolina. And you know, I have to say that 360 00:19:30,359 --> 00:19:32,960 Speaker 1: the center of Rob's world has really always been cars. 361 00:19:33,000 --> 00:19:35,720 Speaker 1: He's he's got a passion for hot rods, He's built 362 00:19:35,720 --> 00:19:38,320 Speaker 1: a bunch over of them. We were talking before we 363 00:19:38,359 --> 00:19:40,359 Speaker 1: went on air about everything that he's got going on, 364 00:19:40,680 --> 00:19:43,520 Speaker 1: from forty eight rat rods to sixty five must things, 365 00:19:43,520 --> 00:19:45,440 Speaker 1: and um, you know, he gets it. He's a car 366 00:19:45,480 --> 00:19:46,800 Speaker 1: guy and we're happy to have him with us here 367 00:19:46,840 --> 00:19:49,400 Speaker 1: on the Car Doctor. And Rob's gonna stop and talk 368 00:19:49,440 --> 00:19:51,240 Speaker 1: to us a little bit about how we can take 369 00:19:51,280 --> 00:19:53,600 Speaker 1: care of fuel and carbon issues in our cars today. Rob. 370 00:19:53,640 --> 00:19:56,199 Speaker 1: Welcome uppards, sir, Hey, Rob Man, I really appreciate you 371 00:19:56,200 --> 00:19:58,320 Speaker 1: having me on. And you're right, there's a there's a 372 00:19:58,320 --> 00:20:02,040 Speaker 1: lot of preventative maintenance that that I think at times 373 00:20:02,040 --> 00:20:04,359 Speaker 1: gets overlooked. We do some of the simplest things. But 374 00:20:04,400 --> 00:20:06,520 Speaker 1: one of the things I think really gets neglected is 375 00:20:06,560 --> 00:20:09,720 Speaker 1: the UH is our fuel system. What we've done is 376 00:20:09,760 --> 00:20:12,680 Speaker 1: we've developed a really nice kit. It's called the fuel 377 00:20:12,680 --> 00:20:16,760 Speaker 1: Pro Compete Complete and what it does is addresses these 378 00:20:16,920 --> 00:20:20,760 Speaker 1: carbon deposit issues and makes it very simple for people 379 00:20:20,800 --> 00:20:22,679 Speaker 1: to do this themselves. Well, let me ask you this, 380 00:20:22,880 --> 00:20:25,399 Speaker 1: what you know, why is it? You know, performance and 381 00:20:25,480 --> 00:20:28,400 Speaker 1: fuel economy kind of drop off, and they do it gradually. 382 00:20:28,400 --> 00:20:31,399 Speaker 1: People don't really notice it, um, But you know what 383 00:20:31,400 --> 00:20:35,320 Speaker 1: what causes that to happen? Um? You know, is it 384 00:20:35,359 --> 00:20:37,719 Speaker 1: a result of is it a result of carbon build up, 385 00:20:37,760 --> 00:20:40,920 Speaker 1: injector issues or what's what's going on with gasoline today? 386 00:20:40,920 --> 00:20:43,119 Speaker 1: What do you say? Well, there's a whole bunch of 387 00:20:43,119 --> 00:20:46,040 Speaker 1: things that's going on here whenever you're having carbon build up, 388 00:20:46,040 --> 00:20:50,600 Speaker 1: and it can arrange from for fuels, just the natural 389 00:20:50,720 --> 00:20:54,720 Speaker 1: build up of carbon to begin with that, the the 390 00:20:54,920 --> 00:20:58,800 Speaker 1: changes of vehicles, the technology is changing from year to 391 00:20:58,920 --> 00:21:01,160 Speaker 1: year to year. As we try to improve and make 392 00:21:01,160 --> 00:21:04,640 Speaker 1: our cars more efficient, sometimes we cause the more issues. 393 00:21:05,080 --> 00:21:07,840 Speaker 1: Some of the older fuel injectures are port fuel, where 394 00:21:08,280 --> 00:21:12,480 Speaker 1: your fuel injection is upstream of the valves or your 395 00:21:12,520 --> 00:21:15,080 Speaker 1: gas whenever it is injected, would rush across the valves 396 00:21:15,080 --> 00:21:17,920 Speaker 1: and in the combusting chamber and clean that valve. Now 397 00:21:17,960 --> 00:21:21,760 Speaker 1: you have these g d I gas direct injection cars 398 00:21:21,800 --> 00:21:25,439 Speaker 1: where the injector is directly injecting fuel straight into the 399 00:21:25,440 --> 00:21:28,520 Speaker 1: combustion chamber. And the problem there is is you no 400 00:21:28,560 --> 00:21:31,639 Speaker 1: longer have fuel running across the top of that intake valve, 401 00:21:32,000 --> 00:21:34,120 Speaker 1: and the carbon will build up on top of that. 402 00:21:34,280 --> 00:21:37,040 Speaker 1: So now you've got a more efficient but yet you've 403 00:21:37,080 --> 00:21:40,320 Speaker 1: got this slow carbon build up and over time you 404 00:21:40,359 --> 00:21:44,760 Speaker 1: may not even notice that you're having poor performance until 405 00:21:44,800 --> 00:21:47,560 Speaker 1: it's and it's til it's too late. Now, why does 406 00:21:47,600 --> 00:21:49,919 Speaker 1: carbon have that effect? I mean, so carbon builds up 407 00:21:49,920 --> 00:21:51,439 Speaker 1: on the valve, so what you know, why does it 408 00:21:51,480 --> 00:21:54,800 Speaker 1: create that problem? So so the reason why it can 409 00:21:54,840 --> 00:21:56,080 Speaker 1: be it would be a lot of things is it 410 00:21:56,080 --> 00:21:58,800 Speaker 1: could be from I mean just naturally you're gonna build 411 00:21:58,840 --> 00:22:00,960 Speaker 1: up carbon whenever your comby thing like that. But you've 412 00:22:01,000 --> 00:22:04,360 Speaker 1: got some you've got different levels of grades of fuel. UM. 413 00:22:04,400 --> 00:22:07,840 Speaker 1: If your air fuel mixture gets off over time, it 414 00:22:07,880 --> 00:22:10,760 Speaker 1: can gradually get worse and then so you're not efficiently 415 00:22:11,680 --> 00:22:16,440 Speaker 1: um burning that fuel. UM. If your injectors start getting clogged. 416 00:22:16,440 --> 00:22:19,640 Speaker 1: Now you're not atomizing that fuel properly and it's more 417 00:22:19,720 --> 00:22:23,080 Speaker 1: streamed out, so you may not be efficiently burning that fuel. 418 00:22:23,560 --> 00:22:26,840 Speaker 1: So okay, let's say someone's sitting in the store and 419 00:22:26,840 --> 00:22:29,400 Speaker 1: they're going, gee, I can I can pour this into 420 00:22:29,400 --> 00:22:32,159 Speaker 1: my tank or I can take the motormatic fuel pro 421 00:22:32,240 --> 00:22:35,320 Speaker 1: complete and use that. What's what's the difference? Is there 422 00:22:35,320 --> 00:22:38,920 Speaker 1: advantage of one over the other. Absolutely. So we've got 423 00:22:39,040 --> 00:22:42,040 Speaker 1: years and years we've been using these popping poor products, 424 00:22:42,080 --> 00:22:45,000 Speaker 1: and in this kit we have a product that will 425 00:22:45,160 --> 00:22:47,199 Speaker 1: pop the pop the top off and put a new 426 00:22:47,240 --> 00:22:50,080 Speaker 1: fuel tank. What's unique about this kid, is we're actually 427 00:22:50,119 --> 00:22:53,440 Speaker 1: going to address our carbon from the fuel tank and 428 00:22:53,560 --> 00:22:56,720 Speaker 1: from the intake. That a lot of people don't realize this, 429 00:22:56,840 --> 00:22:59,359 Speaker 1: but you've got your intake sitting a plant. I'm sitting 430 00:22:59,440 --> 00:23:02,200 Speaker 1: up on top of the engine, and you're gonna naturally 431 00:23:02,320 --> 00:23:06,960 Speaker 1: build up deposits of crud. I'm gonna call it inside there. 432 00:23:07,000 --> 00:23:10,320 Speaker 1: Because you've got your PCV valves pulling air from the 433 00:23:10,359 --> 00:23:13,560 Speaker 1: bottom of your motor, and that's an oil based vapor 434 00:23:13,760 --> 00:23:16,280 Speaker 1: that comes into that. You also have your e g 435 00:23:16,520 --> 00:23:19,880 Speaker 1: R valve, which is your exhaust recycle. That's pulling uh, 436 00:23:20,040 --> 00:23:24,240 Speaker 1: dirty air into your intake. So you're never cleaning the 437 00:23:24,280 --> 00:23:26,760 Speaker 1: inside of the planetum or that side of the intake 438 00:23:27,400 --> 00:23:29,720 Speaker 1: because and you're never cleaning it because all you're doing 439 00:23:29,800 --> 00:23:32,200 Speaker 1: is just putting popping pour in that will never get 440 00:23:32,280 --> 00:23:33,919 Speaker 1: to the top of the planeum and clean that. So 441 00:23:34,040 --> 00:23:35,920 Speaker 1: this one here, actually, whenever you put it in the 442 00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:38,240 Speaker 1: vacuum line, it's going to go into your plantum and 443 00:23:38,280 --> 00:23:41,520 Speaker 1: then down into the combusting tapement across the valves. And 444 00:23:41,600 --> 00:23:44,159 Speaker 1: it's even a little bit better for those g d 445 00:23:44,320 --> 00:23:47,040 Speaker 1: I because you don't have that fuel going across the 446 00:23:47,040 --> 00:23:48,720 Speaker 1: clean the top of that valve. And I have to 447 00:23:48,760 --> 00:23:50,760 Speaker 1: tell you, you you know, I think we had this conversation 448 00:23:50,800 --> 00:23:53,119 Speaker 1: prior to air that you know, I've used these kits 449 00:23:53,280 --> 00:23:56,040 Speaker 1: and to me, this was like somebody invented the better 450 00:23:56,080 --> 00:23:59,399 Speaker 1: mouse trap. Um. You know it was they took something 451 00:23:59,400 --> 00:24:02,160 Speaker 1: that was used to be so complicated and time consuming 452 00:24:02,600 --> 00:24:05,719 Speaker 1: and literally anybody can do this. We use this kit 453 00:24:05,760 --> 00:24:07,679 Speaker 1: in the shop, but somebody that wants to work on 454 00:24:07,720 --> 00:24:10,200 Speaker 1: their own car can do this. Find a vacuum line, 455 00:24:10,240 --> 00:24:11,880 Speaker 1: hook it up for allow the instructions on the kit, 456 00:24:12,400 --> 00:24:15,439 Speaker 1: and um, you know, away you go. It's it's not 457 00:24:15,480 --> 00:24:17,640 Speaker 1: a big deal. And as simple as that sounds, that's 458 00:24:17,720 --> 00:24:20,359 Speaker 1: really kind of how simple it is because contained in 459 00:24:20,400 --> 00:24:23,280 Speaker 1: the box is everything you need. You don't need to 460 00:24:23,280 --> 00:24:25,879 Speaker 1: go buy any extra equipment to do this. The hose 461 00:24:26,160 --> 00:24:28,560 Speaker 1: to hook to the to the vacuum line is in there. 462 00:24:28,760 --> 00:24:31,359 Speaker 1: You've got the products. We have a holder for the 463 00:24:31,400 --> 00:24:35,800 Speaker 1: aerosol that goes into the plenum through the vacuum line. 464 00:24:35,800 --> 00:24:37,200 Speaker 1: It's got a hook on it to hold it to 465 00:24:37,280 --> 00:24:39,480 Speaker 1: keep it out of the way of the battery terminals, 466 00:24:39,560 --> 00:24:42,439 Speaker 1: and got a nice instructions in there. So everything is 467 00:24:42,480 --> 00:24:45,240 Speaker 1: pretty simple. It only takes a couple of minutes to 468 00:24:45,280 --> 00:24:49,080 Speaker 1: actually exhaust that aerosol can into the intake, so you're 469 00:24:49,200 --> 00:24:51,560 Speaker 1: like to two steps and you're in and out in 470 00:24:51,600 --> 00:24:53,720 Speaker 1: the you know, less than five minutes. Let me ask 471 00:24:53,720 --> 00:24:59,080 Speaker 1: you this, So somebody driving around car somebody driving around 472 00:24:59,440 --> 00:25:03,480 Speaker 1: in a tooth eight car, could both of them possibly 473 00:25:03,520 --> 00:25:06,719 Speaker 1: need to have the fuel systems cleaned. Absolutely, anybody that's 474 00:25:06,760 --> 00:25:09,560 Speaker 1: driving a vehicle needs to have their their fuel system clean. 475 00:25:09,640 --> 00:25:11,960 Speaker 1: It's kind of like you as a person. You know, 476 00:25:12,000 --> 00:25:14,000 Speaker 1: you've got to take care of your your body, and 477 00:25:14,040 --> 00:25:15,920 Speaker 1: you've got to take care of what you're breathing in 478 00:25:16,320 --> 00:25:18,359 Speaker 1: and what you're feeding it. So like with the car, 479 00:25:18,480 --> 00:25:21,800 Speaker 1: so in in the newer the technology gets that are 480 00:25:21,800 --> 00:25:25,160 Speaker 1: going to these fuel efficients because we know the government 481 00:25:25,160 --> 00:25:29,520 Speaker 1: has mandated these big milestones and mile per gallon increases 482 00:25:29,520 --> 00:25:33,000 Speaker 1: that the manufacturer have to give. So we're getting smaller motors, 483 00:25:33,440 --> 00:25:37,080 Speaker 1: there's more of this g d I injected technology and 484 00:25:37,119 --> 00:25:39,639 Speaker 1: more turbo charged. So with that more of that g 485 00:25:39,720 --> 00:25:42,120 Speaker 1: d I technology that comes out, it makes even more 486 00:25:42,200 --> 00:25:45,240 Speaker 1: sense with the newer cars and with the older port 487 00:25:45,359 --> 00:25:48,960 Speaker 1: fuel you know, it cleans that the same exact way, 488 00:25:49,119 --> 00:25:50,639 Speaker 1: and it's you know, it's going to clean all that 489 00:25:50,680 --> 00:25:53,160 Speaker 1: out whether it's an older car or a newer one. Right, So, 490 00:25:53,240 --> 00:25:56,080 Speaker 1: and it's it's really you're gonna do it based on 491 00:25:56,200 --> 00:25:59,920 Speaker 1: mileage and time. It's it's it's it's both scenarios. Yeah. 492 00:26:00,040 --> 00:26:02,840 Speaker 1: So so our recommendation is this part of a normal 493 00:26:02,880 --> 00:26:05,680 Speaker 1: preventative maintenance program. You're at that six to ten thousand 494 00:26:05,720 --> 00:26:08,600 Speaker 1: mile range somewhere kind of like an oil change of 495 00:26:08,640 --> 00:26:10,399 Speaker 1: views and synthetical as you kind of put it as 496 00:26:10,440 --> 00:26:13,600 Speaker 1: part of that program. What we what we've seen is 497 00:26:13,720 --> 00:26:16,600 Speaker 1: you know, through our bore scope views and through our 498 00:26:16,680 --> 00:26:20,479 Speaker 1: pulling intake or pulling injectors. We see that you start 499 00:26:20,680 --> 00:26:23,280 Speaker 1: getting that carbon build up. Like if you do it 500 00:26:23,440 --> 00:26:25,679 Speaker 1: like that g d I technology, you start seeing carbon 501 00:26:25,720 --> 00:26:29,080 Speaker 1: build up in about six thousand miles. We've even see 502 00:26:29,119 --> 00:26:32,200 Speaker 1: some that some of the injector holes are clogged at 503 00:26:32,240 --> 00:26:35,520 Speaker 1: ten thousand miles. So it just makes a lot of 504 00:26:35,560 --> 00:26:37,240 Speaker 1: sense if you just kind of add that to your 505 00:26:37,240 --> 00:26:41,399 Speaker 1: normal routine oil change kind of routine, you're going to 506 00:26:41,560 --> 00:26:45,040 Speaker 1: keep yourself at peak performance and and and very efficient 507 00:26:45,040 --> 00:26:47,720 Speaker 1: on your fuel well and to the point that the 508 00:26:47,720 --> 00:26:51,760 Speaker 1: more efficiency engine is you it increases longevity because the 509 00:26:51,800 --> 00:26:55,080 Speaker 1: more efficient it is, Uh, there's less oil breakdown, there's 510 00:26:55,160 --> 00:26:59,439 Speaker 1: less combustion problems, there's less by product problems, there's you know, 511 00:26:59,480 --> 00:27:02,399 Speaker 1: it's you're always better if you can be sixteen for 512 00:27:02,440 --> 00:27:04,040 Speaker 1: the rest of your life. If you're saying, you know 513 00:27:04,080 --> 00:27:06,159 Speaker 1: what that's that's a great analogy, that is. And the 514 00:27:06,440 --> 00:27:08,720 Speaker 1: better you take care of yourself, the better it's gonna run. 515 00:27:09,040 --> 00:27:11,680 Speaker 1: And you know, uh, you know, the most current surveys 516 00:27:11,680 --> 00:27:13,560 Speaker 1: that are out that the average life of the car 517 00:27:13,680 --> 00:27:14,920 Speaker 1: on the on the road is the eleven and a 518 00:27:14,960 --> 00:27:17,679 Speaker 1: half years. So our cars are getting older and we 519 00:27:17,760 --> 00:27:20,520 Speaker 1: need to take better care to make them last at 520 00:27:20,560 --> 00:27:23,560 Speaker 1: three miles. Well, the reason they're getting older is because 521 00:27:23,720 --> 00:27:28,960 Speaker 1: the replacement cars. Now you know, that's that's that's that's 522 00:27:29,280 --> 00:27:32,680 Speaker 1: that's another good. That's another and that's another conversation. Let 523 00:27:32,680 --> 00:27:34,680 Speaker 1: me ask you this this rob, I want to, I 524 00:27:34,720 --> 00:27:37,919 Speaker 1: want to before you go, UM, Motor Medics fuel Pro 525 00:27:38,080 --> 00:27:44,119 Speaker 1: Complete compatible with catalytic converter. And the same question. Oh 526 00:27:44,200 --> 00:27:48,359 Speaker 1: two censors? What Absolutely, it will clean those throughout the system. 527 00:27:48,440 --> 00:27:50,919 Speaker 1: So it does this dissolving so everything's gonna pass through, 528 00:27:51,000 --> 00:27:53,320 Speaker 1: so any kind of sensor. The only thing that you 529 00:27:53,400 --> 00:27:56,000 Speaker 1: have to worry about this is, um, you know, we're 530 00:27:56,040 --> 00:27:57,639 Speaker 1: putting this through the vacuum line. But one of the 531 00:27:57,640 --> 00:27:59,240 Speaker 1: warnings we have on there is you always want to 532 00:27:59,240 --> 00:28:02,119 Speaker 1: stay down stream. And the mass airflow sensor, that's a 533 00:28:02,200 --> 00:28:05,400 Speaker 1: very delicate sensor and it's more up towards the air 534 00:28:05,480 --> 00:28:08,639 Speaker 1: filter for the most part, towards normally not going to 535 00:28:08,720 --> 00:28:10,520 Speaker 1: but we put a warning on there because that's the 536 00:28:10,560 --> 00:28:12,399 Speaker 1: only sensor I mean, and you know that was a 537 00:28:12,440 --> 00:28:16,080 Speaker 1: really delicate sensor. That's that's kind of like the Ballerina 538 00:28:16,119 --> 00:28:19,119 Speaker 1: and the bunch. It's just delicate and balanced and you 539 00:28:19,119 --> 00:28:21,440 Speaker 1: can't knock it over. And we've learned a lot about 540 00:28:21,480 --> 00:28:23,720 Speaker 1: mass airflows over the years. I mean, whenever those first 541 00:28:23,760 --> 00:28:25,880 Speaker 1: were coming out, people are cleaning them with brake cleaner 542 00:28:26,480 --> 00:28:28,639 Speaker 1: and it's just yeah, I would just dissolve them and 543 00:28:28,680 --> 00:28:30,960 Speaker 1: they just wouldn't laugh. So you know, that's why they've 544 00:28:31,000 --> 00:28:33,480 Speaker 1: got specifics out there for like mass airflow. It takes 545 00:28:33,520 --> 00:28:35,960 Speaker 1: a little less aggressive, but as it is, it is 546 00:28:35,960 --> 00:28:40,280 Speaker 1: the ballerina. The system is problems just real fast. Putting 547 00:28:40,280 --> 00:28:44,200 Speaker 1: motormatic fuel procomplete into the system too fast? Is that possible? 548 00:28:45,120 --> 00:28:47,560 Speaker 1: That is not possible with this kid. And that's one 549 00:28:47,600 --> 00:28:49,640 Speaker 1: of the guarantees we have is this kiss. So it's 550 00:28:49,680 --> 00:28:51,760 Speaker 1: got a hose that hooks under the air sol can 551 00:28:52,400 --> 00:28:55,960 Speaker 1: and it's metered. The output is metered. So what it 552 00:28:56,040 --> 00:28:59,520 Speaker 1: is is you're not fully flooding it with a garden hose. 553 00:29:00,080 --> 00:29:05,120 Speaker 1: Now you can't compress liquid. So what happens whenever you 554 00:29:05,160 --> 00:29:07,560 Speaker 1: know some of there's some other things that I've seen 555 00:29:07,960 --> 00:29:10,480 Speaker 1: in the market to where people will use like a 556 00:29:10,560 --> 00:29:13,680 Speaker 1: liquid and take your vacuum line and just stick it 557 00:29:13,720 --> 00:29:15,720 Speaker 1: down inside of a can and just start sucking it 558 00:29:15,720 --> 00:29:17,960 Speaker 1: in like a like a garden host. That that that 559 00:29:18,000 --> 00:29:20,880 Speaker 1: can be an issue that that's gonna that can be 560 00:29:21,160 --> 00:29:22,800 Speaker 1: and I'm gonna say it every time, but can be 561 00:29:22,880 --> 00:29:25,400 Speaker 1: catastrophic because once you get to the point to pistons, 562 00:29:25,440 --> 00:29:27,440 Speaker 1: we're going to keep going up and it's gonna say no, 563 00:29:27,560 --> 00:29:30,360 Speaker 1: I don't think so. But that's whenever you start having 564 00:29:30,400 --> 00:29:33,760 Speaker 1: a connecting rod's band and and having that hydrostatic lock, 565 00:29:33,960 --> 00:29:36,200 Speaker 1: there's only so much room in the bus. And yeah, 566 00:29:36,280 --> 00:29:38,040 Speaker 1: and it's so it's a meter to where it comes 567 00:29:38,040 --> 00:29:39,960 Speaker 1: out to u US, you know, and it only takes 568 00:29:39,960 --> 00:29:41,640 Speaker 1: a few minutes, but it's meter to where it's we 569 00:29:41,760 --> 00:29:44,800 Speaker 1: guarantee that that will not will not happen real quick. 570 00:29:44,880 --> 00:29:48,400 Speaker 1: Rob website place listeners can go for more information. Absolutely so, 571 00:29:48,480 --> 00:29:50,400 Speaker 1: not only have we come out with this really cool kit, 572 00:29:50,560 --> 00:29:52,640 Speaker 1: we've actually thought, you know what, just putting it on 573 00:29:52,680 --> 00:29:54,520 Speaker 1: the shelf, it's not going to be enough. We want 574 00:29:54,520 --> 00:29:57,240 Speaker 1: to educate and help people feel comfortable with doing it. 575 00:29:57,400 --> 00:30:01,120 Speaker 1: We've got a website called fuel pro Complete dot com. 576 00:30:01,160 --> 00:30:03,920 Speaker 1: On this site, we've got our demo video. It will 577 00:30:04,120 --> 00:30:06,200 Speaker 1: show you all the way how to how we take 578 00:30:06,240 --> 00:30:08,600 Speaker 1: care of this kit and how it works. We also 579 00:30:08,680 --> 00:30:11,320 Speaker 1: have some pictures on there you can select and make 580 00:30:11,360 --> 00:30:14,480 Speaker 1: a model and we're continually adding to that, building that 581 00:30:14,600 --> 00:30:16,280 Speaker 1: data base to whereas if you, let's see, you have 582 00:30:16,280 --> 00:30:18,680 Speaker 1: a Honda chord, you can select that and you'll see 583 00:30:18,680 --> 00:30:22,000 Speaker 1: what a typical engine bay looks like in a typical 584 00:30:22,080 --> 00:30:25,040 Speaker 1: location on where you'll where you'll find that. We've got 585 00:30:25,080 --> 00:30:26,920 Speaker 1: a lot of education to help kind of like how 586 00:30:26,960 --> 00:30:29,120 Speaker 1: to stuff rob. You guys have done a really great job. 587 00:30:29,160 --> 00:30:31,000 Speaker 1: I can tell you, as I said before, we're using 588 00:30:31,040 --> 00:30:33,360 Speaker 1: this in the shop and we're seeing very positive results 589 00:30:33,400 --> 00:30:35,440 Speaker 1: with it, and that's why we thought it'd be great 590 00:30:35,440 --> 00:30:37,400 Speaker 1: to get you up here to talk about it. Um. 591 00:30:37,440 --> 00:30:39,240 Speaker 1: I want to thank you for taking the time today, 592 00:30:39,360 --> 00:30:42,600 Speaker 1: my best everybody down North Carolina Way.

Uh, 618 00:32:23,120 --> 00:32:25,560 Speaker 1: you know, not a lot of spare time. But um yeah, 619 00:32:25,560 --> 00:32:27,280 Speaker 1: it's it's it's on my bucket list. But now I 620 00:32:27,280 --> 00:32:30,040 Speaker 1: guess my bucket just got a little lighter, one less 621 00:32:30,080 --> 00:32:32,600 Speaker 1: thing to do. So but how can I help you today? 622 00:32:32,680 --> 00:32:36,680 Speaker 1: Can okay with this car. I've only got sixty only 623 00:32:36,760 --> 00:32:38,880 Speaker 1: driving a couple of thousand miles of summer. It's my 624 00:32:38,920 --> 00:32:42,480 Speaker 1: toy car. Uh. When I when it's been sitting for 625 00:32:42,600 --> 00:32:44,880 Speaker 1: days at the time and I started up, I got 626 00:32:45,280 --> 00:32:48,200 Speaker 1: a noisy lift or sound. All right, it's gone by 627 00:32:48,200 --> 00:32:52,400 Speaker 1: the time I get down to the corner. But and 628 00:32:52,440 --> 00:32:54,320 Speaker 1: if I drive it every day after that, I don't 629 00:32:54,360 --> 00:32:56,400 Speaker 1: hear it. But you know, again, said a couple of 630 00:32:56,440 --> 00:32:58,520 Speaker 1: days and it's back again. So I was wondering if 631 00:32:58,520 --> 00:33:01,440 Speaker 1: there's any kind of an additive I can. Yeah. I 632 00:33:01,480 --> 00:33:04,200 Speaker 1: mean there's a couple of things and and understanding an 633 00:33:04,200 --> 00:33:07,520 Speaker 1: older car. This is old school technology an older car. 634 00:33:07,640 --> 00:33:10,520 Speaker 1: My approach for maintaining this car is very different than 635 00:33:10,720 --> 00:33:13,280 Speaker 1: a newer car in a lot of ways. One of 636 00:33:13,280 --> 00:33:15,240 Speaker 1: the things we used to do way back in the day. 637 00:33:15,600 --> 00:33:18,480 Speaker 1: You know, we've got a vehicle that sits. It runs 638 00:33:18,480 --> 00:33:20,360 Speaker 1: short trips or long trips, and then it sits for 639 00:33:20,440 --> 00:33:23,840 Speaker 1: long periods of time. Oil gets varnishy, it gets shelacky, 640 00:33:23,920 --> 00:33:26,640 Speaker 1: it gets it gets contaminant in it, and it creates 641 00:33:26,640 --> 00:33:30,840 Speaker 1: problems like this. First step, believe it or not, is 642 00:33:31,200 --> 00:33:34,720 Speaker 1: I would take this and lower the oil level in 643 00:33:34,720 --> 00:33:39,240 Speaker 1: the crank case half a quart of automatic transmission fluid. 644 00:33:40,320 --> 00:33:42,960 Speaker 1: All right, and what that's gonna do. I'll tell you what, Ken, 645 00:33:43,000 --> 00:33:44,520 Speaker 1: I'm gonna the clock is gonna take me. I don't want, 646 00:33:44,560 --> 00:33:46,440 Speaker 1: I don't want to rush this. Stay on the line. 647 00:33:46,600 --> 00:33:48,120 Speaker 1: Let me get through the break and then I'll be 648 00:33:48,200 --> 00:33:49,680 Speaker 1: right back and we can finish this out. I'm on 649 00:33:49,800 --> 00:33:51,560 Speaker 1: any of the car doctor will be back right after this. 650 00:34:09,880 --> 00:34:20,000 Speaker 1: A thousand dollar card branding the car Doctor here. Let's 651 00:34:20,000 --> 00:34:22,160 Speaker 1: get over and talk to Kent Syracuse, New York. Can 652 00:34:22,200 --> 00:34:25,560 Speaker 1: you're still with us? So you know? The the deal 653 00:34:25,640 --> 00:34:28,439 Speaker 1: with trans fluid is trans fluid is a very high 654 00:34:28,480 --> 00:34:32,239 Speaker 1: detergent fluid. It has a great scrubbing action to it, 655 00:34:32,480 --> 00:34:34,280 Speaker 1: which is one of the things that creates a problem 656 00:34:34,320 --> 00:34:36,680 Speaker 1: on older transmission when the fluid is not changed. And 657 00:34:36,719 --> 00:34:39,200 Speaker 1: they always say, you've always read the conversation about don't 658 00:34:39,280 --> 00:34:42,120 Speaker 1: change fluid that's really dirty. That's because if someone lets 659 00:34:42,160 --> 00:34:44,759 Speaker 1: the fluid get really dirty, it stands a chance of 660 00:34:45,239 --> 00:34:47,960 Speaker 1: the fresh fluid will scrubb all the varnish and shellac 661 00:34:48,120 --> 00:34:50,720 Speaker 1: off the walls of the trans and create particular problems 662 00:34:50,719 --> 00:34:53,600 Speaker 1: and clogging and so forth. And that's a different conversation, 663 00:34:53,680 --> 00:34:56,640 Speaker 1: different day. In your case, I'm willing to bet that 664 00:34:56,640 --> 00:35:00,080 Speaker 1: we've got a lifter that's sticky or varnished up, and 665 00:35:00,120 --> 00:35:02,640 Speaker 1: the trans fluid will go in there and scrub it 666 00:35:02,680 --> 00:35:06,239 Speaker 1: clean and and and remove enough of the contaminant so 667 00:35:06,320 --> 00:35:08,879 Speaker 1: it's lower the oil level. Put a half a quarter 668 00:35:08,960 --> 00:35:11,560 Speaker 1: or a pint of trans fluid in it, and good 669 00:35:11,560 --> 00:35:14,160 Speaker 1: old GM DECKX. Why not, that's what we've always used. 670 00:35:14,480 --> 00:35:16,279 Speaker 1: And let it sit there on idol. And let it 671 00:35:16,320 --> 00:35:18,880 Speaker 1: sit there on idol is as as long as it takes, 672 00:35:19,200 --> 00:35:21,839 Speaker 1: sometimes up to a half hour forty five minutes. Now 673 00:35:21,880 --> 00:35:25,879 Speaker 1: after an hour, if it doesn't do anything, then we've 674 00:35:25,920 --> 00:35:27,759 Speaker 1: got to face the reality that maybe we've got to 675 00:35:27,800 --> 00:35:30,160 Speaker 1: lift or issue, or we can go to step two, 676 00:35:30,239 --> 00:35:33,080 Speaker 1: which is extreme. You're ready for the extreme real quick. 677 00:35:33,880 --> 00:35:38,839 Speaker 1: The extreme is lower it by a full court and 678 00:35:38,840 --> 00:35:40,920 Speaker 1: put a quarter of break fluid in the car in 679 00:35:40,960 --> 00:35:47,040 Speaker 1: the engine. Nothing is more caustic than break fluid, absolutely nothing. 680 00:35:47,480 --> 00:35:50,440 Speaker 1: All right. The danger is, and you have to understand 681 00:35:50,480 --> 00:35:53,360 Speaker 1: this going in, you also stand the chance of creating 682 00:35:53,400 --> 00:35:57,480 Speaker 1: seal issues, lubrication issues, and it's sort of the fail safe. 683 00:35:57,600 --> 00:36:00,600 Speaker 1: I don't think you're anywhere near this. It would be 684 00:36:00,600 --> 00:36:02,640 Speaker 1: the equivalent of using a nuclear bomb to kill a 685 00:36:02,719 --> 00:36:05,480 Speaker 1: CC fly. I think it's overkill in your case, but 686 00:36:05,600 --> 00:36:08,320 Speaker 1: it's the idea of we're trying to scrub away contaminant, 687 00:36:08,719 --> 00:36:11,440 Speaker 1: all right, So just keep that in mind. And also 688 00:36:11,600 --> 00:36:14,160 Speaker 1: just as regular maintenance, we just had a monitor fresh 689 00:36:14,239 --> 00:36:17,080 Speaker 1: on my mind. Think about doing a carbon cleaning fuel 690 00:36:17,080 --> 00:36:19,680 Speaker 1: pro system complete would really help this car because of 691 00:36:19,719 --> 00:36:22,440 Speaker 1: the fact that it sits so much, lots of carbon deposits, 692 00:36:22,680 --> 00:36:24,279 Speaker 1: lots of other issues that you might be able to 693 00:36:24,280 --> 00:36:26,560 Speaker 1: prevent by using it. So try those things. Can give 694 00:36:26,560 --> 00:36:27,759 Speaker 1: me a call of me or how it works out 695 00:36:27,840 --> 00:36:30,880 Speaker 1: until the next time. Good mechanics aren't expensive, they're priceless. 696 00:36:31,080 --> 00:36:31,360 Speaker 1: See you
