00:00:05,080 --> 00:00:07,480
Speaker 1: I got this cheap you know. Oh yeah, you need

3
00:00:07,520 --> 00:00:10,600
Speaker 1: the four fuel rail. However, they're on back quarter. There's

4
00:00:10,640 --> 00:00:12,399
Speaker 1: none in the country and they won't be available till

Speaker 1: March eleventh. Now I've entered the parts twilight, So the

6
00:00:33,000 --> 00:00:35,440
Speaker 1: Car Doctor. When you fire the key, when you when

7
00:00:35,479 --> 00:00:38,639
Speaker 1: you turn the key back to on, you get immediate

8
00:00:38,680 --> 00:00:41,239
Speaker 1: fuel pressure and doesn't hold when when you think it's

9
00:00:41,240 --> 00:00:46,360
Speaker 1: gonna go to that long crank time away. Welcome to

10
00:00:46,440 --> 00:00:49,360
Speaker 1: the radio home of Ron and Anian, The Car Doctor,

11
00:00:49,640 --> 00:00:53,880
Speaker 1: since this is where car owners the world overturned to

12
00:00:54,280 --> 00:00:58,520
Speaker 1: for their definitive opinion on automotive repair. If your mechanics

13
00:00:58,520 --> 00:01:01,160
Speaker 1: giving you a busy signal, pick up the phone and

14
00:01:01,200 --> 00:01:04,479
Speaker 1: call in the garage doors are open, but I am

15
00:01:04,480 --> 00:01:13,039
Speaker 1: here to take your call at and now running. Where

16
00:01:13,040 --> 00:01:15,920
Speaker 1: will we go today? Holy cow, what a what a

17
00:01:15,920 --> 00:01:17,520
Speaker 1: great show we can have today. Let's see what we

18
00:01:17,520 --> 00:01:19,680
Speaker 1: can do. I want a real couple of comments. Um,

19
00:01:19,720 --> 00:01:21,280
Speaker 1: if I came before we get to the busy phones

20
00:01:21,720 --> 00:01:23,680
Speaker 1: we posted up on Facebook. We've got a couple of

21
00:01:23,800 --> 00:01:26,679
Speaker 1: articles up on Facebook this week, and um, you know

22
00:01:26,800 --> 00:01:29,399
Speaker 1: we were trying to post well, we post what's in

23
00:01:29,400 --> 00:01:32,600
Speaker 1: the news, and we were scrolling through the news this weekend.

24
00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:35,840
Speaker 1: Just this morning it came up. You know that ship

25
00:01:35,880 --> 00:01:38,000
Speaker 1: that's in the news that's on fire out in the

26
00:01:38,040 --> 00:01:40,120
Speaker 1: middle of the ocean. They just came out with the

27
00:01:40,120 --> 00:01:42,640
Speaker 1: news report today and they're not saying what started the fire,

28
00:01:43,400 --> 00:01:47,520
Speaker 1: but they're saying that that ship is loaded with electric vehicles, Porsches,

29
00:01:47,520 --> 00:01:52,240
Speaker 1: out Ease, Porsche, out e Volkswagen, Bentley, all electric vehicles,

30
00:01:52,320 --> 00:01:55,240
Speaker 1: and you know, it's an issue. They don't know what

31
00:01:55,240 --> 00:01:57,640
Speaker 1: they're gonna do with it because of the combustibility factor,

32
00:01:57,680 --> 00:02:00,160
Speaker 1: and um, they're towing it to a port because, as

33
00:02:00,160 --> 00:02:03,400
Speaker 1: the report says, it requires specialized equipment in order to

34
00:02:03,480 --> 00:02:05,760
Speaker 1: deal with it. So we put it up on Facebook.

35
00:02:05,800 --> 00:02:09,360
Speaker 1: Now I'm reading, I'm watching everybody's comments, and I gotta

36
00:02:09,440 --> 00:02:12,680
Speaker 1: tell you, I think you're missing the point. People are

37
00:02:12,720 --> 00:02:15,120
Speaker 1: making comments, well, it could be an oil tanker fire,

38
00:02:15,200 --> 00:02:17,880
Speaker 1: it could be gasoline gasoline. We're having this whole debate

39
00:02:17,919 --> 00:02:21,000
Speaker 1: on Facebook right now about which is which is harder

40
00:02:21,080 --> 00:02:26,200
Speaker 1: or more environmentally impactful, gasoline or a lithium ion battery.

41
00:02:26,400 --> 00:02:30,239
Speaker 1: You're missing the point. I gotta tell you that what

42
00:02:30,280 --> 00:02:33,880
Speaker 1: I'm talking about is take that ship filled with electric vehicles,

43
00:02:34,200 --> 00:02:36,480
Speaker 1: make it a parking garage in the middle of downtown

44
00:02:36,520 --> 00:02:40,160
Speaker 1: New York or Los Angeles or Chicago, and you've got

45
00:02:40,200 --> 00:02:45,120
Speaker 1: such a highly combustible or a much more combustible issue

46
00:02:45,520 --> 00:02:49,640
Speaker 1: than gasoline. Because it's been established and proved me wrong.

47
00:02:50,160 --> 00:02:54,200
Speaker 1: It's been established that the lithium ion battery fire is

48
00:02:54,480 --> 00:02:58,800
Speaker 1: much worse than a gasoline vehicle fire, to the point

49
00:02:58,880 --> 00:03:02,160
Speaker 1: that they're closed in highways when electric cars catch fire.

50
00:03:02,160 --> 00:03:05,680
Speaker 1: And I'm not saying there's you know, more electric I'm saying,

51
00:03:05,680 --> 00:03:09,960
Speaker 1: when it happens, it's a problem. So you know, start

52
00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:11,919
Speaker 1: to think a little outside the box. Everybody is in

53
00:03:12,040 --> 00:03:16,400
Speaker 1: such defensive electric vehicles that they're not looking at the facts.

54
00:03:16,480 --> 00:03:20,799
Speaker 1: In my opinion, that there's going to be a much

55
00:03:20,840 --> 00:03:23,880
Speaker 1: bigger impact on society. And I'm not saying good or bad.

56
00:03:23,919 --> 00:03:25,720
Speaker 1: I'm just saying there's gonna be an impact. It's gonna

57
00:03:25,919 --> 00:03:28,840
Speaker 1: completely change the way we approach things, and it's gonna

58
00:03:28,840 --> 00:03:30,640
Speaker 1: limit some of the things we can do because of

59
00:03:30,639 --> 00:03:32,960
Speaker 1: what I see. I don't know, maybe I'm wrong. I

60
00:03:33,040 --> 00:03:35,440
Speaker 1: see it as a danger. I see it as a problem.

61
00:03:35,440 --> 00:03:37,920
Speaker 1: A parking garage filled with electric vehicles. What are you

62
00:03:37,960 --> 00:03:41,040
Speaker 1: gonna do with it? Um, So just look beyond that.

63
00:03:41,080 --> 00:03:43,160
Speaker 1: But that's what's up on our Facebook page this week,

64
00:03:43,240 --> 00:03:46,280
Speaker 1: and some commentary about Europe and what they're going to

65
00:03:46,280 --> 00:03:48,360
Speaker 1: do for electric vehicle chargers and how they're gonna deal

66
00:03:48,400 --> 00:03:51,040
Speaker 1: with the demand projected demand than the next UH in

67
00:03:51,080 --> 00:03:53,560
Speaker 1: the next fifteen years. UH to get it up there.

68
00:03:53,600 --> 00:03:55,119
Speaker 1: And I should point out by the way, we're talking

69
00:03:55,160 --> 00:03:57,080
Speaker 1: to Mark Mills. We've had Mark on the show before.

70
00:03:57,120 --> 00:03:58,760
Speaker 1: We're talking to Mark Mills. We're gonna get them on

71
00:03:58,800 --> 00:04:00,720
Speaker 1: the show. Get them on the show a couple of weeks.

72
00:04:01,040 --> 00:04:03,280
Speaker 1: And some of your questions on Facebook. I'm gonna bring

73
00:04:03,360 --> 00:04:06,600
Speaker 1: up regarding one gentleman's bringing up a commentary that you know,

74
00:04:06,640 --> 00:04:09,680
Speaker 1: gasoline has a higher combustibility rate, and um, it's harder

75
00:04:09,680 --> 00:04:11,120
Speaker 1: to deal with a gas fire and some of the

76
00:04:11,120 --> 00:04:12,640
Speaker 1: other things that are being set out there. You know

77
00:04:12,680 --> 00:04:14,920
Speaker 1: we're gonna find out. I consider Mark the expert in

78
00:04:14,920 --> 00:04:16,840
Speaker 1: that field. He'll he'll lay it out for us, so

79
00:04:17,320 --> 00:04:18,919
Speaker 1: you can look forward to that. Let's go over to

80
00:04:19,000 --> 00:04:23,000
Speaker 1: John and Florida Toyota camera and some problems with this

81
00:04:23,040 --> 00:04:25,520
Speaker 1: thirty seven year old vehicle. John, welcome to the car doctor.

82
00:04:25,720 --> 00:04:30,680
Speaker 1: How can I help? Yes, Hi, Yeah, I bought this

83
00:04:31,200 --> 00:04:35,440
Speaker 1: car at an option and UH, I got it home

84
00:04:35,520 --> 00:04:38,080
Speaker 1: and UH was running on three cylinders. Noticed that a

85
00:04:38,120 --> 00:04:42,600
Speaker 1: bunch of the connectors under the hood we're disconnected. So

86
00:04:43,160 --> 00:04:46,320
Speaker 1: took them all up and bam, it started work and

87
00:04:46,400 --> 00:04:49,440
Speaker 1: just fine. And UH replaced all the hoses, put a

88
00:04:49,440 --> 00:04:53,080
Speaker 1: lot of work into the front end, suspension and things

89
00:04:53,080 --> 00:04:55,400
Speaker 1: of that nature. But all the parts are cheap, so

90
00:04:55,560 --> 00:04:57,159
Speaker 1: it wasn't really that big a deal and it's just

91
00:04:57,240 --> 00:05:04,400
Speaker 1: took up my time, really, But I noticed that when I, UM,

92
00:05:04,600 --> 00:05:07,520
Speaker 1: I brought into a shop to have some of the

93
00:05:07,560 --> 00:05:11,120
Speaker 1: wiring taken care of, and just because I didn't feel

94
00:05:11,160 --> 00:05:14,760
Speaker 1: like dealing with it, and UH, before I got before

95
00:05:14,800 --> 00:05:16,520
Speaker 1: I brought to them, I noticed that when I was

96
00:05:16,600 --> 00:05:19,760
Speaker 1: driving around my neighborhood that when I take a corner,

97
00:05:20,440 --> 00:05:22,360
Speaker 1: the oil light would come on and then as soon

98
00:05:22,400 --> 00:05:24,880
Speaker 1: as I, you know, would go straight again, it would

99
00:05:24,960 --> 00:05:29,040
Speaker 1: go off. So I parked it and I checked it out.

100
00:05:29,160 --> 00:05:32,360
Speaker 1: It looked fine. Um, the plenty of oil and you know,

101
00:05:32,400 --> 00:05:36,080
Speaker 1: maybe the weak oil pump, but I thought maybe if

102
00:05:36,080 --> 00:05:38,680
Speaker 1: I put thicker oil in it, they would kind of compensate.

103
00:05:38,720 --> 00:05:42,120
Speaker 1: Even though it wasn't really a fix for it. Um.

104
00:05:42,160 --> 00:05:46,440
Speaker 1: But then I noticed after a little while that at

105
00:05:46,600 --> 00:05:52,320
Speaker 1: startup there would be uh a dull knocking, so it

106
00:05:52,320 --> 00:05:57,320
Speaker 1: almost sounds like, uh, like a quieter version of a

107
00:05:57,440 --> 00:06:03,600
Speaker 1: rod knock. And and but then after like maybe thirty seconds,

108
00:06:03,640 --> 00:06:05,479
Speaker 1: And what I'm thinking is is when the oil is

109
00:06:05,520 --> 00:06:10,320
Speaker 1: pumping through the system, is that it goes away after

110
00:06:10,400 --> 00:06:13,960
Speaker 1: that and the lucation takes care of it. But I'm

111
00:06:13,960 --> 00:06:17,520
Speaker 1: not sure if it's the oil pump that's sailing, or

112
00:06:17,839 --> 00:06:22,919
Speaker 1: maybe if it's a cam uh cam bush Uh what

113
00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:27,520
Speaker 1: the hell where they called lifter? Uh? Yeah, lift or

114
00:06:27,680 --> 00:06:30,000
Speaker 1: whatever it might be. So I don't know if you

115
00:06:30,040 --> 00:06:33,240
Speaker 1: had any thoughts on that. Well, let's let's back up

116
00:06:33,240 --> 00:06:35,479
Speaker 1: a second. How many miles around this vehicle? Not that

117
00:06:35,480 --> 00:06:40,000
Speaker 1: it's gonna matter a whole lot of comment her thousand.

118
00:06:40,320 --> 00:06:42,480
Speaker 1: It's not a lot for that vehicle. You know, The

119
00:06:42,560 --> 00:06:44,640
Speaker 1: question is how well was it maintained? And we'll never

120
00:06:44,680 --> 00:06:47,120
Speaker 1: know because it's, you know, thirty something years out of

121
00:06:47,160 --> 00:06:51,320
Speaker 1: your control. So exactly, you know, does it still have

122
00:06:51,400 --> 00:06:53,840
Speaker 1: the issue? We're going around corners the oil lie will

123
00:06:53,920 --> 00:06:58,280
Speaker 1: come on? No, Because I switched, Uh, I got a

124
00:06:58,360 --> 00:07:01,360
Speaker 1: little bit um beer oils than what I had because

125
00:07:01,400 --> 00:07:06,240
Speaker 1: I put uh in it to compensate and I thought

126
00:07:06,279 --> 00:07:08,400
Speaker 1: that might have been a little too thick, so I

127
00:07:08,440 --> 00:07:15,560
Speaker 1: brought down to and so you're so you're one of

128
00:07:15,600 --> 00:07:17,520
Speaker 1: those guys that thinks the thicker the thinner of scars

129
00:07:17,720 --> 00:07:19,520
Speaker 1: is gonna make a difference. All right, I'll play this game.

130
00:07:20,080 --> 00:07:23,240
Speaker 1: Um Uh. Realistically, I didn't want to spend a whole

131
00:07:23,240 --> 00:07:25,720
Speaker 1: lot of money on this car. I understand. Listen, I

132
00:07:25,760 --> 00:07:27,679
Speaker 1: get it. I get it. We we we we try

133
00:07:27,680 --> 00:07:29,880
Speaker 1: and do anything we can. Right, we're trying to we're

134
00:07:29,880 --> 00:07:31,320
Speaker 1: trying to patch the hole and we don't have the

135
00:07:31,400 --> 00:07:33,960
Speaker 1: right material to do it with. Like I understand completely.

136
00:07:34,440 --> 00:07:37,120
Speaker 1: So when when you noticed it going around corners in

137
00:07:37,160 --> 00:07:39,080
Speaker 1: the oil that was coming on and you check the

138
00:07:39,080 --> 00:07:42,960
Speaker 1: oil level, was it higher or low? It was a

139
00:07:42,960 --> 00:07:46,960
Speaker 1: little bit high. But the weird thing is is that

140
00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:50,960
Speaker 1: the car supposed to take like four point three quarts

141
00:07:51,000 --> 00:07:54,280
Speaker 1: of oil, and I had I had a little bit

142
00:07:54,320 --> 00:07:58,960
Speaker 1: over four courts. It wasn't quite four point three, but

143
00:07:57,920 --> 00:08:00,600
Speaker 1: trust me, but when you check, it could be three

144
00:08:00,640 --> 00:08:02,320
Speaker 1: and a half quarts of oil and the light shouldn't

145
00:08:02,320 --> 00:08:04,080
Speaker 1: come on going around corners. You could probably be three

146
00:08:04,120 --> 00:08:06,000
Speaker 1: quarts of oil, and the light shouldn't come wrong going

147
00:08:06,040 --> 00:08:09,320
Speaker 1: around corners. So the point becomes it had between four

148
00:08:09,320 --> 00:08:10,760
Speaker 1: and four and a half quarts of oil in it,

149
00:08:10,800 --> 00:08:14,760
Speaker 1: and going around corners the light came on. Yeah, all right,

150
00:08:15,120 --> 00:08:17,400
Speaker 1: So now I've got to ask the question, do you

151
00:08:17,440 --> 00:08:19,640
Speaker 1: think it's is it happening too fast to be real?

152
00:08:19,760 --> 00:08:21,600
Speaker 1: Is it is it? Is it still doing it? It

153
00:08:21,640 --> 00:08:26,200
Speaker 1: doesn't do it anymore? No, it doesn't. Just it started,

154
00:08:27,400 --> 00:08:29,840
Speaker 1: the light doesn't come up. The light goes off, like

155
00:08:30,200 --> 00:08:34,640
Speaker 1: goes off. But after after start up, after thirty seconds,

156
00:08:34,760 --> 00:08:37,319
Speaker 1: everything back to normal. Even when I take corners, that

157
00:08:37,440 --> 00:08:39,720
Speaker 1: doesn't come on. Okay, But but the light comes on

158
00:08:39,840 --> 00:08:41,679
Speaker 1: cold when you first started in the morning, as cold

159
00:08:41,720 --> 00:08:47,319
Speaker 1: as you could get in Florida, right exactly. So aren't

160
00:08:47,320 --> 00:08:49,640
Speaker 1: you kind of curious? That's a pretty easy oil pan

161
00:08:49,679 --> 00:08:51,360
Speaker 1: to get down, As I remember, why don't we lower

162
00:08:51,400 --> 00:08:54,920
Speaker 1: the pan and see if the screens clogged? Yeah? I

163
00:08:54,960 --> 00:08:58,719
Speaker 1: could do that, right, that's pretty basic. You know, that's

164
00:08:58,720 --> 00:09:01,320
Speaker 1: a that's that's a pretty basic thing. You know, oil

165
00:09:01,360 --> 00:09:05,360
Speaker 1: pump failure. Uh, you know, maybe we've got varnish issues

166
00:09:05,400 --> 00:09:09,720
Speaker 1: and we've got a um a pressure valve getting stuck.

167
00:09:09,720 --> 00:09:12,120
Speaker 1: But that won't cause low pressure like that, and it

168
00:09:12,120 --> 00:09:14,760
Speaker 1: shouldn't cause a starvation issue. The biggest thing that's gonna

169
00:09:14,760 --> 00:09:17,280
Speaker 1: cause starvation like that is going to be the pickup,

170
00:09:17,640 --> 00:09:19,320
Speaker 1: going to be the screen in the bottom of the pan.

171
00:09:20,360 --> 00:09:23,080
Speaker 1: So when you when you when you first change the oil,

172
00:09:23,120 --> 00:09:25,160
Speaker 1: what did it look like? Was it really sludgy and

173
00:09:25,200 --> 00:09:30,320
Speaker 1: cruddy and beat up? I mean I had no lubricity whatsoever,

174
00:09:30,760 --> 00:09:33,760
Speaker 1: and it was really dark. Isn't that a great word, lubricity?

175
00:09:33,800 --> 00:09:35,880
Speaker 1: I like that word. It's just you know, yeah, it's

176
00:09:35,880 --> 00:09:38,920
Speaker 1: a that's a thumb and four finger thing, you know. Um.

177
00:09:39,000 --> 00:09:40,920
Speaker 1: You know you can talk to your significant other about that,

178
00:09:40,960 --> 00:09:43,880
Speaker 1: and that's how she'll understand. You know, women, women and

179
00:09:43,880 --> 00:09:47,200
Speaker 1: men connect differently. Right with women, it's the smell of

180
00:09:47,200 --> 00:09:49,520
Speaker 1: the flowers, the look of the picture, the glow of

181
00:09:49,520 --> 00:09:52,560
Speaker 1: the sunlight, the husband or the boyfriend or the other half.

182
00:09:52,600 --> 00:09:55,280
Speaker 1: It's like, man, that oil had the best lubricity I've

183
00:09:55,320 --> 00:09:57,280
Speaker 1: ever seen. It was just great. After I changed it

184
00:09:57,320 --> 00:09:58,959
Speaker 1: on the car, it was, you know, That's why I

185
00:09:59,080 --> 00:10:02,640
Speaker 1: changed it at three thous miles, that lubricity feeling. Um, yeah,

186
00:10:02,679 --> 00:10:03,960
Speaker 1: I want to know what I want to know what

187
00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:07,080
Speaker 1: the pickup screen looks like and you know, is it

188
00:10:07,160 --> 00:10:12,199
Speaker 1: is it restricted? Now? You know, you could try, all right,

189
00:10:12,800 --> 00:10:15,520
Speaker 1: draining the oil, getting it good and hot, maybe running

190
00:10:15,520 --> 00:10:18,440
Speaker 1: a little crank case flush through it first, you know,

191
00:10:18,640 --> 00:10:20,840
Speaker 1: get down to get down to your local Oreilliyota parts.

192
00:10:20,840 --> 00:10:23,160
Speaker 1: See what they have in the way of crank case flush.

193
00:10:23,440 --> 00:10:26,360
Speaker 1: If they've got some of the Berryman sludgey mover. Berryman

194
00:10:26,400 --> 00:10:29,360
Speaker 1: makes a real good crank case flush solution, all right,

195
00:10:29,480 --> 00:10:31,400
Speaker 1: you can find more You can find more info online

196
00:10:31,400 --> 00:10:34,760
Speaker 1: at Berryman Products dot com. And try doing a crank

197
00:10:34,800 --> 00:10:37,400
Speaker 1: case flush. See if that helps it at all, all right,

198
00:10:37,520 --> 00:10:39,920
Speaker 1: And that might be a little easier and faster and

199
00:10:39,960 --> 00:10:43,040
Speaker 1: more cost efficient than lower in the oil pan. And

200
00:10:43,080 --> 00:10:47,000
Speaker 1: then after that, all right, change the oil and let's

201
00:10:47,040 --> 00:10:50,839
Speaker 1: put the right viscosity oil in it. If we've got

202
00:10:50,840 --> 00:10:54,480
Speaker 1: a knock, listen if if it's got a knock, all right,

203
00:10:54,840 --> 00:10:57,000
Speaker 1: don't you want to know about it now before the

204
00:10:57,000 --> 00:11:01,720
Speaker 1: crankshaft falls out air go bigger problem? Right? Uh? You

205
00:11:01,760 --> 00:11:04,000
Speaker 1: know one of the things you could try. If we

206
00:11:04,040 --> 00:11:06,040
Speaker 1: go through all this and then put the right viscosity

207
00:11:06,040 --> 00:11:09,240
Speaker 1: oil in it and the knock comes back, this should

208
00:11:09,240 --> 00:11:14,960
Speaker 1: be a distributor cap and ignition wire. Car correct, this

209
00:11:15,040 --> 00:11:18,240
Speaker 1: has ignition wires, so why don't we pull one one

210
00:11:18,280 --> 00:11:21,000
Speaker 1: spark plug wire at a time on startup until the

211
00:11:21,040 --> 00:11:23,960
Speaker 1: noise goes away. If the noise goes away, we know

212
00:11:24,040 --> 00:11:26,720
Speaker 1: it's likely the rod bearing, or it could be the

213
00:11:26,760 --> 00:11:28,880
Speaker 1: crank support bearing. Not likely, but it could be the

214
00:11:28,880 --> 00:11:31,520
Speaker 1: crank support bearing on that cylinder. At least you've got

215
00:11:31,520 --> 00:11:34,239
Speaker 1: an idea where to look. If the noise stays consistent

216
00:11:34,320 --> 00:11:37,720
Speaker 1: and doesn't change, then we know it's somewhere else in

217
00:11:37,720 --> 00:11:39,600
Speaker 1: the engine. Not that that makes us happy, but we've

218
00:11:39,600 --> 00:11:41,720
Speaker 1: we've got this noise to deal with, but at least

219
00:11:41,880 --> 00:11:44,480
Speaker 1: we know what it's not. You know, stop looking for

220
00:11:44,520 --> 00:11:46,360
Speaker 1: what it is. Let's try and figure out what it's

221
00:11:46,400 --> 00:11:49,240
Speaker 1: not and maybe that'll tell us all right, And then

222
00:11:49,280 --> 00:11:51,840
Speaker 1: if all else fails, you want to do either you're

223
00:11:51,840 --> 00:11:53,360
Speaker 1: gonna do one or two things. You're gonna do a

224
00:11:53,360 --> 00:11:56,040
Speaker 1: mechanical oil pressure test. Put a gauge on it and

225
00:11:56,040 --> 00:11:58,520
Speaker 1: watch oil pressure and see what it does, just to

226
00:11:58,559 --> 00:12:01,160
Speaker 1: be sure you don't have a bad sender. Or you're

227
00:12:01,200 --> 00:12:03,439
Speaker 1: going to lower the pan and take a look at

228
00:12:03,480 --> 00:12:05,800
Speaker 1: and see what the see what the oil pickup screen

229
00:12:05,840 --> 00:12:09,559
Speaker 1: looks like and see how restricted it might be. Okay,

230
00:12:09,920 --> 00:12:12,800
Speaker 1: that's a good idea to check those cylinders. Just do

231
00:12:12,880 --> 00:12:14,559
Speaker 1: it like that. You give you a called back and

232
00:12:14,640 --> 00:12:17,760
Speaker 1: let me know what happens. John, all right, thank you, sir,

233
00:12:17,880 --> 00:12:21,080
Speaker 1: appreciate you. You're very welcome to be well. Um, yeah,

234
00:12:21,200 --> 00:12:23,160
Speaker 1: I just listen, I've done it. You know, we put

235
00:12:23,240 --> 00:12:25,319
Speaker 1: thicker viscosity and because you know what, but we get

236
00:12:25,320 --> 00:12:27,920
Speaker 1: away from the thing, we're trying to hide the problem.

237
00:12:27,960 --> 00:12:29,559
Speaker 1: I want to know what the problem is this way,

238
00:12:29,559 --> 00:12:31,839
Speaker 1: I know what I'm dealing with before I spend more

239
00:12:31,840 --> 00:12:33,800
Speaker 1: money on the car, and you know the next thing,

240
00:12:33,840 --> 00:12:35,559
Speaker 1: he'll put it in as a radio or a stereo.

241
00:12:35,640 --> 00:12:37,920
Speaker 1: Spend five there, and then two days after that the

242
00:12:38,000 --> 00:12:40,040
Speaker 1: rod falls at the bottom of the oil pan. So

243
00:12:40,080 --> 00:12:42,920
Speaker 1: I guess the viscosity on the oil didn't help, Jeff saying,

244
00:12:43,160 --> 00:12:47,520
Speaker 1: I understand it though. Zero nine zero that's the car

245
00:12:47,559 --> 00:12:49,920
Speaker 1: doctrophone number to call, and I'll be back right after

246
00:12:49,960 --> 00:13:06,560
Speaker 1: this to answer it. Don't go away and need advice

247
00:13:06,559 --> 00:13:09,080
Speaker 1: on how to maintaining that classic g t O. Ron

248
00:13:09,200 --> 00:13:13,760
Speaker 1: is the guy five zero nine zero zero. Here's Ron.

249
00:13:14,040 --> 00:13:15,960
Speaker 1: Let's get over to Bob on Long Island though five

250
00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:18,200
Speaker 1: hand to c RV Bob, I think this is a

251
00:13:18,200 --> 00:13:20,960
Speaker 1: follow up call? Is it not as this car fixed? Yes,

252
00:13:21,000 --> 00:13:22,840
Speaker 1: it is Ron and you know the man the car

253
00:13:22,960 --> 00:13:24,959
Speaker 1: is fixed. What was what was going on with this car?

254
00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:27,600
Speaker 1: Tell us a story. Well, you know, this car was

255
00:13:27,640 --> 00:13:29,760
Speaker 1: broken for many months, that had been in and out

256
00:13:29,760 --> 00:13:32,640
Speaker 1: of four or five shops, including the dealer, and it

257
00:13:32,720 --> 00:13:35,800
Speaker 1: wasn't until I got it in my driveway and it

258
00:13:35,840 --> 00:13:39,559
Speaker 1: became a battle of inches. The battle of inches is

259
00:13:39,559 --> 00:13:44,720
Speaker 1: a tough battle. Um, this was a crank no start condition, correct, right,

260
00:13:44,800 --> 00:13:47,520
Speaker 1: it was no spark and we had talked about the

261
00:13:47,520 --> 00:13:51,599
Speaker 1: crank angle censor thing, and you very smartly suggested to

262
00:13:51,760 --> 00:13:55,920
Speaker 1: prove what's good. So when it was behaving, which was

263
00:13:56,000 --> 00:13:59,160
Speaker 1: most of the time, I unplugged the crank angle censer

264
00:13:59,320 --> 00:14:01,480
Speaker 1: and ran the car. So we ruled out the crank

265
00:14:01,480 --> 00:14:04,640
Speaker 1: ankle sensor. Right, Yeah, because the logic there is you

266
00:14:04,679 --> 00:14:06,920
Speaker 1: know a lot of the manufacturers will do that on

267
00:14:07,040 --> 00:14:10,480
Speaker 1: certain sensors in that they don't want you stuck on

268
00:14:10,480 --> 00:14:12,520
Speaker 1: the side of the road. Stuck on the side of

269
00:14:12,520 --> 00:14:15,240
Speaker 1: the road generates bad publicity. Hey, my handa left me

270
00:14:15,280 --> 00:14:17,400
Speaker 1: stranded on the l I E that doesn't work right,

271
00:14:17,960 --> 00:14:20,120
Speaker 1: you know, it's it's it's better to say, hey, my

272
00:14:20,200 --> 00:14:22,160
Speaker 1: hand is having a problem, but it's still got me home.

273
00:14:23,120 --> 00:14:27,040
Speaker 1: Pr program like that. Once we ruled out the crank

274
00:14:27,080 --> 00:14:34,200
Speaker 1: angle sensor, I started to check voltages about cranking, and

275
00:14:34,240 --> 00:14:40,080
Speaker 1: we were losing pull bolts at the coils while cranking. Okay,

276
00:14:40,320 --> 00:14:43,680
Speaker 1: and then where'd you go? So then I started to

277
00:14:43,760 --> 00:14:46,200
Speaker 1: check all the wires, old the resistance values back and

278
00:14:46,240 --> 00:14:51,600
Speaker 1: forth between the admission switch the coils, and then there

279
00:14:51,720 --> 00:14:54,920
Speaker 1: was a relay in there. I knew there was a

280
00:14:54,920 --> 00:14:56,920
Speaker 1: relay because I had heated end up with the air

281
00:14:57,040 --> 00:15:01,600
Speaker 1: dryer and the car while it was under failure. Even

282
00:15:01,640 --> 00:15:03,240
Speaker 1: though I heated it up, it's still failed, so I

283
00:15:03,280 --> 00:15:07,840
Speaker 1: had ruled out that relay. Out of frustration, I switched

284
00:15:07,840 --> 00:15:12,840
Speaker 1: the relay and the car started right. Honda's gonna Honda

285
00:15:12,960 --> 00:15:17,160
Speaker 1: has a problem with relays. Uh not just in that

286
00:15:17,280 --> 00:15:21,160
Speaker 1: their air conditioning relays to a C compressor. Relays have

287
00:15:21,280 --> 00:15:22,840
Speaker 1: a real issue. Just keep it in the back of

288
00:15:22,840 --> 00:15:24,560
Speaker 1: your head. And I've been down this road where you

289
00:15:24,600 --> 00:15:27,720
Speaker 1: will try to test it every which way, and I'm

290
00:15:27,720 --> 00:15:30,200
Speaker 1: not sure why I've never been able to take one

291
00:15:30,240 --> 00:15:33,240
Speaker 1: apart in fail your mode and actually start to take readings,

292
00:15:33,920 --> 00:15:37,520
Speaker 1: but it just seems that, you know, sometimes you'll rule

293
00:15:37,560 --> 00:15:39,240
Speaker 1: it out. You'll look for the same relay in the

294
00:15:39,280 --> 00:15:43,239
Speaker 1: box as long as it's something innocuous fog lights or headlights,

295
00:15:43,240 --> 00:15:44,880
Speaker 1: something you don't need at that moment to run the

296
00:15:44,920 --> 00:15:47,800
Speaker 1: car or run the A C compressor. Swap the relay

297
00:15:47,880 --> 00:15:50,560
Speaker 1: key off, of course, you know, swap the relay and

298
00:15:50,560 --> 00:15:52,640
Speaker 1: see what it does, and and boom. You know, I'm

299
00:15:52,640 --> 00:15:57,080
Speaker 1: amazed relays last as long as they do in modern cars.

300
00:15:57,640 --> 00:15:59,240
Speaker 1: You know. One of the things that we'll do from

301
00:15:59,280 --> 00:16:01,400
Speaker 1: time to time. You'll get the car the customer talks

302
00:16:01,400 --> 00:16:03,880
Speaker 1: about that they're driving down the road and the car

303
00:16:03,960 --> 00:16:06,040
Speaker 1: hits a pothole and the car shuts off. Where do

304
00:16:06,080 --> 00:16:08,520
Speaker 1: you start. I get out my little two hons ball

305
00:16:08,560 --> 00:16:10,480
Speaker 1: peen hammer, and I'll go through the relay box under

306
00:16:10,480 --> 00:16:12,840
Speaker 1: the hood, and I'll find the main power relay for

307
00:16:12,840 --> 00:16:15,920
Speaker 1: the you know, PCM and fuel pump relay and some

308
00:16:16,000 --> 00:16:18,200
Speaker 1: of the other key items. And just as I'm going

309
00:16:18,240 --> 00:16:20,000
Speaker 1: through diagnosis, just to give it a little bit of

310
00:16:20,000 --> 00:16:22,240
Speaker 1: a tap and can it take the shock, because it's

311
00:16:22,280 --> 00:16:25,240
Speaker 1: got to take the same shock as hitting that pothole.

312
00:16:25,600 --> 00:16:28,040
Speaker 1: On the on the highway at forty miles an hour,

313
00:16:28,120 --> 00:16:29,560
Speaker 1: fifty miles an hour. It's got to be able to

314
00:16:29,560 --> 00:16:33,320
Speaker 1: handle that impact. So you you learned a lesson today.

315
00:16:34,200 --> 00:16:37,000
Speaker 1: One of the shops did replace the E C M relay.

316
00:16:37,440 --> 00:16:39,920
Speaker 1: I saw that was now they were barking up the

317
00:16:39,920 --> 00:16:43,040
Speaker 1: wrong tree. Y they were close, but a cigar I

318
00:16:43,080 --> 00:16:45,960
Speaker 1: wish I could while heating it up with the hair dryer,

319
00:16:46,320 --> 00:16:49,000
Speaker 1: didn't take it out of failure mode because this was

320
00:16:49,080 --> 00:16:52,640
Speaker 1: definitely a cold leather related problem. You know, once the

321
00:16:52,680 --> 00:16:57,360
Speaker 1: weather got cold, the car would the start. But show

322
00:16:57,400 --> 00:16:59,640
Speaker 1: me what's good. I'll say what's bad. We kept at

323
00:16:59,640 --> 00:17:01,680
Speaker 1: the bat and with your help with one, and I

324
00:17:01,720 --> 00:17:04,359
Speaker 1: really really appreciate. Now you're very welcome, Bob. Listen. I

325
00:17:05,160 --> 00:17:08,320
Speaker 1: you know, I talk like I talk in the shop.

326
00:17:08,359 --> 00:17:10,920
Speaker 1: It's no different somebody, you know, somebody always asks me

327
00:17:10,960 --> 00:17:12,480
Speaker 1: how longes it take it to prepare to do the show?

328
00:17:12,520 --> 00:17:14,639
Speaker 1: I say, you know, well you gotta have a it's

329
00:17:14,680 --> 00:17:17,439
Speaker 1: a perspective. It either takes me all week or it

330
00:17:17,440 --> 00:17:19,200
Speaker 1: takes me about three minutes to sit down and turn

331
00:17:19,240 --> 00:17:21,439
Speaker 1: the mic on on the weekend, you know, because um,

332
00:17:22,560 --> 00:17:24,840
Speaker 1: there really is no prep Now I'm doing this journal

333
00:17:24,840 --> 00:17:26,760
Speaker 1: where I'm starting to record everything that goes on in

334
00:17:26,800 --> 00:17:28,280
Speaker 1: the shop during the course of the day, just to

335
00:17:28,320 --> 00:17:31,040
Speaker 1: gather my thoughts. But that's only to bring you guys closer,

336
00:17:31,080 --> 00:17:34,480
Speaker 1: because I think you guys want to be inside the shop.

337
00:17:34,920 --> 00:17:36,919
Speaker 1: You want to hear more about what's going on in

338
00:17:36,920 --> 00:17:39,320
Speaker 1: the day to day because it just changes and it's

339
00:17:39,359 --> 00:17:41,840
Speaker 1: just evolving so quickly. I'm really glad it worked out

340
00:17:41,840 --> 00:17:44,440
Speaker 1: for you, Robert, I really am. I'm I'm I think

341
00:17:44,440 --> 00:17:47,000
Speaker 1: you did a great job of diagnosis. Uh, you know,

342
00:17:47,119 --> 00:17:49,280
Speaker 1: it's it's sad, but I have to say you're probably

343
00:17:49,320 --> 00:17:51,359
Speaker 1: smarter than a lot of the technicians out there working

344
00:17:51,359 --> 00:17:53,600
Speaker 1: on cars today because they won't take the time to

345
00:17:53,600 --> 00:17:58,800
Speaker 1: go through this would have complicated it right. And and

346
00:17:59,280 --> 00:18:02,080
Speaker 1: the coin is, most of the shops probably couldn't get

347
00:18:02,080 --> 00:18:04,480
Speaker 1: it to fail. You know, the cars that the car

348
00:18:04,560 --> 00:18:07,159
Speaker 1: shot in my driveway not failing on at all for

349
00:18:07,200 --> 00:18:10,920
Speaker 1: five weeks and once it was skin failure, most for good.

350
00:18:11,280 --> 00:18:14,679
Speaker 1: With your help, two hundred thousand miles broken in, just

351
00:18:14,920 --> 00:18:18,160
Speaker 1: broken in, baby, Keep it going, Robert, is always a pleasure, sir.

352
00:18:18,359 --> 00:18:20,920
Speaker 1: You'd be well and enjoy the rest of your weekend,

379
00:20:09,520 --> 00:20:12,439
Speaker 1: talk to you about finding a mechanic. And I'm going

380
00:20:12,480 --> 00:20:14,280
Speaker 1: to tell you the story this way because it happened

381
00:20:14,280 --> 00:20:16,280
Speaker 1: to me in the shop this week and I thought

382
00:20:16,280 --> 00:20:18,080
Speaker 1: it was a really great conversation. I had a customer

383
00:20:18,240 --> 00:20:20,399
Speaker 1: came in and that's one of my journal entries this

384
00:20:20,440 --> 00:20:22,280
Speaker 1: week about how much of an oil change should I get?

385
00:20:22,320 --> 00:20:23,439
Speaker 1: And I asked him, I said, how much of an

386
00:20:23,440 --> 00:20:25,000
Speaker 1: oil change do you want? How much of an oil

387
00:20:25,080 --> 00:20:28,080
Speaker 1: change do you need? And I had this really long

388
00:20:28,440 --> 00:20:32,240
Speaker 1: and great conversation with this new customer at the counter,

389
00:20:32,680 --> 00:20:34,919
Speaker 1: and he was asking all the right questions. He was

390
00:20:35,000 --> 00:20:36,959
Speaker 1: interviewing me in a sense, and I know what he

391
00:20:37,040 --> 00:20:40,200
Speaker 1: was doing, and I must have passed. And I always

392
00:20:40,240 --> 00:20:41,679
Speaker 1: think to myself, it's been a while since I had

393
00:20:41,680 --> 00:20:44,480
Speaker 1: a past basic seamanship. It's right out of Jaws when

394
00:20:44,640 --> 00:20:47,560
Speaker 1: Richard Dreyfus has to tie the knot. But it made

395
00:20:47,600 --> 00:20:50,639
Speaker 1: me think of you. The listener here that's looking for

396
00:20:50,680 --> 00:20:53,439
Speaker 1: a mechanic and how do you find one? You know,

397
00:20:53,520 --> 00:20:55,479
Speaker 1: you walk in, you think about the process. Right you

398
00:20:55,520 --> 00:20:58,840
Speaker 1: walk in with your automobile, you're you're one of your

399
00:20:58,840 --> 00:21:01,000
Speaker 1: biggest cost orc spences. I don't know if I would

400
00:21:01,000 --> 00:21:03,600
Speaker 1: say investment, but one of the biggest costs that you

401
00:21:03,640 --> 00:21:06,040
Speaker 1: can have in this day and age. You know, it's

402
00:21:06,119 --> 00:21:08,639
Speaker 1: it's you're gonna spend somewhere between thirty and fifty grand

403
00:21:08,680 --> 00:21:10,639
Speaker 1: on the average car if you're buying something new, and

404
00:21:10,640 --> 00:21:13,440
Speaker 1: if you're buying something used, you're probably gonna spend fifteen

405
00:21:13,480 --> 00:21:17,440
Speaker 1: to five grand to get something decent at a minimum,

406
00:21:17,480 --> 00:21:19,159
Speaker 1: And you're gonna walk in, you plunk the keys down

407
00:21:19,200 --> 00:21:22,600
Speaker 1: and say change the oil, and you don't have a conversation.

408
00:21:23,480 --> 00:21:27,600
Speaker 1: Bad move. You know you should do what John did.

409
00:21:28,040 --> 00:21:30,520
Speaker 1: He asked me, He said, hey, Ron, you know, um,

410
00:21:31,400 --> 00:21:33,800
Speaker 1: tell me the truth, tell me what I need, take

411
00:21:33,840 --> 00:21:36,240
Speaker 1: care of my car. I wanted to keep me safe.

412
00:21:37,240 --> 00:21:40,600
Speaker 1: And we had this great conversation about synthetic and conventional

413
00:21:40,600 --> 00:21:43,440
Speaker 1: oil specs, the differences, the similarities. He wanted to put

414
00:21:43,480 --> 00:21:47,080
Speaker 1: conventional oil in his late model GMC Acadia, which takes

415
00:21:47,119 --> 00:21:49,160
Speaker 1: zero twenty and I had to explain to him that,

416
00:21:49,600 --> 00:21:52,199
Speaker 1: you know, they don't make a zero twenty conventional oil,

417
00:21:53,000 --> 00:21:55,000
Speaker 1: you know, and it's got to be a synthetic and

418
00:21:55,000 --> 00:21:57,560
Speaker 1: it's got to have this spec And you know, I

419
00:21:57,560 --> 00:21:59,640
Speaker 1: showed on the back of a couple of bottles of oil.

420
00:21:59,640 --> 00:22:02,720
Speaker 1: We still have some quarts around some freestanding courts for

421
00:22:02,840 --> 00:22:05,200
Speaker 1: specific vehicles. And I showed him how the bottles all

422
00:22:05,320 --> 00:22:08,800
Speaker 1: site specs of what different manufacturers called for. That you

423
00:22:08,800 --> 00:22:11,040
Speaker 1: could have two bottles of five thirty and this one

424
00:22:11,119 --> 00:22:14,320
Speaker 1: meets you know, a Volkswagen spec or or or a

425
00:22:14,359 --> 00:22:16,360
Speaker 1: Ford speck, and then the one next to it, even

426
00:22:16,359 --> 00:22:19,200
Speaker 1: though they're both five thirty, this one could meet Chrysler

427
00:22:19,200 --> 00:22:22,480
Speaker 1: and this one could meet GM specification. So not all

428
00:22:22,520 --> 00:22:26,199
Speaker 1: oils are created equal. And he absorbed all that, he

429
00:22:26,280 --> 00:22:28,199
Speaker 1: really did, and then we had the We talked the

430
00:22:28,200 --> 00:22:31,920
Speaker 1: hard truth about you know why you can't have preconceived

431
00:22:31,960 --> 00:22:34,879
Speaker 1: notions when you're working on a car. Look, if you

432
00:22:34,920 --> 00:22:39,359
Speaker 1: don't trust the mechanic, you're going to find another mechanic.

433
00:22:40,359 --> 00:22:42,239
Speaker 1: You know, you wouldn't do that with a doctor, right,

434
00:22:42,240 --> 00:22:44,680
Speaker 1: You wouldn't go to a doctor. And you know, Doc,

435
00:22:44,760 --> 00:22:46,760
Speaker 1: I've got this pain in my elbow and he tells

436
00:22:46,760 --> 00:22:49,880
Speaker 1: you he's gonna chop off your big toe. You know,

437
00:22:50,440 --> 00:22:52,240
Speaker 1: it's all of a sudden, the alarms go off, and

438
00:22:52,320 --> 00:22:54,200
Speaker 1: don't trust this guy anymore. And then you go back

439
00:22:54,240 --> 00:22:56,200
Speaker 1: to that doctor in two months because you get a

440
00:22:56,280 --> 00:22:58,240
Speaker 1: you get a head cold. Well, he can probably fix

441
00:22:58,280 --> 00:23:00,879
Speaker 1: the head cold. He's probably okay to do that. You know,

442
00:23:00,920 --> 00:23:02,800
Speaker 1: if your mechanic tells you to chop off your big

443
00:23:02,800 --> 00:23:05,600
Speaker 1: toe to fix the pain in your elbow, you know,

444
00:23:05,680 --> 00:23:08,399
Speaker 1: if he's taking the tail lights out to put a

445
00:23:08,440 --> 00:23:11,200
Speaker 1: belt on the car, or to change the front tires,

446
00:23:11,680 --> 00:23:15,680
Speaker 1: he's you know, working through the trunk, it's probably time

447
00:23:15,720 --> 00:23:18,119
Speaker 1: to find another mechanic. Not well, there's some things he

448
00:23:18,160 --> 00:23:20,879
Speaker 1: can do and some things he can't do that doesn't

449
00:23:20,920 --> 00:23:24,119
Speaker 1: make any sense. So you know, you're gonna get what

450
00:23:24,160 --> 00:23:25,800
Speaker 1: your fain. You're gonna get what you find. You're gonna

451
00:23:25,800 --> 00:23:30,000
Speaker 1: get what you ask for. We talked about why you

452
00:23:30,080 --> 00:23:33,199
Speaker 1: can't have preconceived notions, and I explained to him. You know,

453
00:23:33,359 --> 00:23:37,040
Speaker 1: it changes. The business changes on a regular basis. It

454
00:23:37,160 --> 00:23:40,800
Speaker 1: changes hourly sometimes, and some of the things I hear

455
00:23:40,880 --> 00:23:44,119
Speaker 1: during the week, I I'm in awe of. You know,

456
00:23:44,119 --> 00:23:45,800
Speaker 1: I never thought I'd be dealing with a product that

457
00:23:45,880 --> 00:23:47,800
Speaker 1: was made so well and held together so well. And

458
00:23:47,800 --> 00:23:49,359
Speaker 1: then again, I never thought I'd be dealing with a

459
00:23:49,400 --> 00:23:52,800
Speaker 1: product that was as complicated as it wasn't so overbuilt

460
00:23:52,800 --> 00:23:56,240
Speaker 1: in some cases and you know, just so difficult to

461
00:23:56,320 --> 00:24:00,000
Speaker 1: deal with and work on from for the average consumer.

462
00:24:00,160 --> 00:24:03,400
Speaker 1: Or is it has the vehicle priced itself or featured

463
00:24:03,520 --> 00:24:07,399
Speaker 1: itself out of the realm of affordability for the average person.

464
00:24:09,080 --> 00:24:12,320
Speaker 1: Talked about what makes repair shops go out of business.

465
00:24:12,320 --> 00:24:14,640
Speaker 1: It was an interesting question he asked me. He said, wrong,

466
00:24:14,680 --> 00:24:16,560
Speaker 1: why do you think some shops go out of business?

467
00:24:16,560 --> 00:24:19,360
Speaker 1: And I I said, I think it's bad business models.

468
00:24:19,960 --> 00:24:22,040
Speaker 1: You know, this was a very in depth conversation. We

469
00:24:22,080 --> 00:24:23,800
Speaker 1: had probably something you would have all liked to have

470
00:24:23,840 --> 00:24:25,119
Speaker 1: been there, or some of you might have liked to

471
00:24:25,119 --> 00:24:27,159
Speaker 1: have been there to listen in on and give me

472
00:24:27,200 --> 00:24:29,399
Speaker 1: your two cents. I said, you know, I think one

473
00:24:29,440 --> 00:24:32,919
Speaker 1: of the worst business models in the world was Sears

474
00:24:32,960 --> 00:24:36,440
Speaker 1: Auto Center. And I do. I think Sears really did

475
00:24:36,440 --> 00:24:39,320
Speaker 1: a lot of damage to the automobile industry. You know,

476
00:24:39,359 --> 00:24:42,200
Speaker 1: they were in for so many years and they touted

477
00:24:42,240 --> 00:24:44,560
Speaker 1: their their their cheap batteries. You can get a cheap

478
00:24:44,560 --> 00:24:49,040
Speaker 1: battery and Sears a die hard and you know, cheap tires,

479
00:24:49,119 --> 00:24:55,000
Speaker 1: cheap oil changes. But when technology came up, when the

480
00:24:55,080 --> 00:24:57,399
Speaker 1: demand was there where you needed to have talent to

481
00:24:57,440 --> 00:25:00,600
Speaker 1: be in auto repair, Sears didn't. And the test of

482
00:25:00,680 --> 00:25:03,720
Speaker 1: time did they They seem to fade away. Their business

483
00:25:03,760 --> 00:25:07,239
Speaker 1: model kind of didn't make it. And I look at

484
00:25:07,280 --> 00:25:10,000
Speaker 1: that and I think, you know, it always seems to

485
00:25:10,040 --> 00:25:12,760
Speaker 1: be the case. We we sort of hold near and

486
00:25:12,800 --> 00:25:15,520
Speaker 1: dear these people that offer us price over quality and

487
00:25:15,560 --> 00:25:18,160
Speaker 1: price over service, and then when they're gone, we kind

488
00:25:18,200 --> 00:25:21,359
Speaker 1: of forget. So when you're looking for a mechanic, you know,

489
00:25:21,400 --> 00:25:23,199
Speaker 1: you almost got to ask yourself if you're looking for

490
00:25:23,200 --> 00:25:29,119
Speaker 1: that quick, cheap and different type of repair facility that

491
00:25:29,119 --> 00:25:31,480
Speaker 1: that chain store. I'm not saying anything bad. Old chain

492
00:25:31,560 --> 00:25:34,520
Speaker 1: stores aren't bad. I'm just saying, you know, how personable,

493
00:25:34,560 --> 00:25:36,359
Speaker 1: how much one on one do you get to know

494
00:25:36,440 --> 00:25:40,359
Speaker 1: the mechanic. It's important. I showed John one of the

495
00:25:40,440 --> 00:25:44,480
Speaker 1: things this week. We were doing a diagnosis on a

496
00:25:44,560 --> 00:25:46,920
Speaker 1: vehicle that had a misfire on number two cylinder, different

497
00:25:47,000 --> 00:25:49,840
Speaker 1: vehicle than the vehicle I talked about and the other

498
00:25:49,880 --> 00:25:53,480
Speaker 1: show this week, and I gave that customer, all the

499
00:25:53,520 --> 00:25:57,399
Speaker 1: diagnostic print outs, cranking, compression, test graphs, charts, circles and arrows,

500
00:25:57,400 --> 00:25:59,040
Speaker 1: the whole nine yards. And he said, you know, I've

501
00:25:59,080 --> 00:26:00,920
Speaker 1: never I've never seen anybody do this. He goes, you're

502
00:26:01,280 --> 00:26:02,920
Speaker 1: he was a doctor, and he said, you know, you're

503
00:26:02,960 --> 00:26:04,800
Speaker 1: you're really explaining it to me in a way that

504
00:26:04,840 --> 00:26:07,040
Speaker 1: I can understand. And he said, I really like this.

505
00:26:07,080 --> 00:26:10,560
Speaker 1: I'm gonna I'm gonna be back. And I thought to myself,

506
00:26:10,600 --> 00:26:14,080
Speaker 1: I must be the oddball. I just assumed everybody you know,

507
00:26:14,119 --> 00:26:17,520
Speaker 1: hands out diagnostic reports and paperwork and explains the process,

508
00:26:17,560 --> 00:26:19,880
Speaker 1: because I think if they don't, I think they're doing

509
00:26:19,880 --> 00:26:21,760
Speaker 1: you a disservice. And that's something else you need to

510
00:26:21,760 --> 00:26:23,440
Speaker 1: look for in a mechanic if that's what you want.

511
00:26:23,480 --> 00:26:25,639
Speaker 1: And I think you want that because it helps answer

512
00:26:25,720 --> 00:26:28,320
Speaker 1: questions later on down the line when you wonder what

513
00:26:28,440 --> 00:26:31,280
Speaker 1: this done? Was that done? It just makes it very

514
00:26:31,359 --> 00:26:34,200
Speaker 1: very important. It's become part of the repair process. Look

515
00:26:34,720 --> 00:26:37,119
Speaker 1: what we're trying to fix on a weekly basis, that

516
00:26:37,560 --> 00:26:41,520
Speaker 1: four wheeled wonder out in the driveway is you know,

517
00:26:41,640 --> 00:26:44,280
Speaker 1: complicated in a lot of ways, just like the human body,

518
00:26:44,320 --> 00:26:46,600
Speaker 1: and doctors will take the time to explain things to

519
00:26:46,640 --> 00:26:49,239
Speaker 1: you and give your reports and go over reports and

520
00:26:49,280 --> 00:26:52,120
Speaker 1: go over diagnosis. I think it's got to be done

521
00:26:52,160 --> 00:26:54,080
Speaker 1: that way. I think the bedside manner of a mechanic

522
00:26:54,119 --> 00:26:56,280
Speaker 1: has to equal that and it has to be done

523
00:26:56,320 --> 00:26:58,600
Speaker 1: in the same way in order to give you what

524
00:26:58,640 --> 00:27:00,159
Speaker 1: you need in order to take that car and keep

525
00:27:00,160 --> 00:27:02,720
Speaker 1: it on the road. So just food for thought, um,

526
00:27:02,800 --> 00:27:04,480
Speaker 1: how to find it on a mechanic. You gotta ask

527
00:27:04,480 --> 00:27:06,520
Speaker 1: yourself the question, how much oil change do you need?

528
00:27:06,760 --> 00:27:10,200
Speaker 1: How much oil change do you want? And start interviewing

529
00:27:10,240 --> 00:27:12,560
Speaker 1: your next mechanic if you're looking for one eight five

538
00:27:44,520 --> 00:27:47,760
Speaker 1: Jack and Boston, Oh three Lincoln Town car Jack, how

Speaker 1: New Jersey mechanic? Grana Damian how worried you, sir. I'm

541
00:27:55,840 --> 00:27:59,879
Speaker 1: okay on I gotta two thousand three Lincoln town car

542
00:28:00,320 --> 00:28:05,280
Speaker 1: that's got a compressors that died, and I got a

543
00:28:05,280 --> 00:28:08,679
Speaker 1: other two thousand three Lincoln town car that has a

544
00:28:08,680 --> 00:28:11,760
Speaker 1: really good compressor in it, but I no longer have

545
00:28:11,880 --> 00:28:15,440
Speaker 1: on the road, So I want to swap swap it out,

546
00:28:15,520 --> 00:28:18,000
Speaker 1: and I want to know, you know, I'm gonna do

547
00:28:18,080 --> 00:28:21,640
Speaker 1: it a solfer if I could just yank out that

548
00:28:22,160 --> 00:28:25,560
Speaker 1: the compressor from the good one and take out the

549
00:28:25,640 --> 00:28:29,520
Speaker 1: bad one and then UH bring it to uh an

550
00:28:29,560 --> 00:28:33,560
Speaker 1: air conditioning shop and say, okay, uh evacuated system, putt

551
00:28:33,600 --> 00:28:35,400
Speaker 1: new oil in it and new free on it. Would

552
00:28:35,400 --> 00:28:37,360
Speaker 1: that be or something I could do? Should? I just

553
00:28:37,359 --> 00:28:40,560
Speaker 1: want somebody do it? Well? That the concern becomes, does

554
00:28:40,680 --> 00:28:46,760
Speaker 1: the does either system have any refrigerant in it? Yeah?

555
00:28:46,800 --> 00:28:49,040
Speaker 1: It's a good a good one. The card that uh

556
00:28:49,240 --> 00:28:52,480
Speaker 1: I'm gonna take out is a good running system right now. Okay,

557
00:28:52,480 --> 00:28:56,680
Speaker 1: the other card doesn't have refrigerant in it? Right? So

558
00:28:56,720 --> 00:28:59,640
Speaker 1: how do you know the compressors any good? I'm just

559
00:28:59,680 --> 00:29:03,400
Speaker 1: being level's advocate. Yeah, well, the good car because it

560
00:29:03,400 --> 00:29:06,520
Speaker 1: gets cold here coming out when I'm gonna take out

561
00:29:06,560 --> 00:29:10,800
Speaker 1: of okay, So, but the good car doesn't The car

562
00:29:10,840 --> 00:29:14,080
Speaker 1: with the good compressor doesn't run right. How it's it's

563
00:29:14,080 --> 00:29:19,000
Speaker 1: a working a c system that it runs, but I

564
00:29:19,040 --> 00:29:20,840
Speaker 1: don't have it on the road because it's got like

565
00:29:20,920 --> 00:29:24,160
Speaker 1: almost two hundred miles on it and things going wrong

566
00:29:24,240 --> 00:29:27,320
Speaker 1: with it. Right, So you know you're gonna have to

567
00:29:27,320 --> 00:29:29,720
Speaker 1: re You really should recover that. And I know, I'm

568
00:29:29,800 --> 00:29:31,440
Speaker 1: I know I'm saying this, and people are going, I

569
00:29:31,440 --> 00:29:34,520
Speaker 1: don't do that. But by law and by concern for

570
00:29:34,520 --> 00:29:37,280
Speaker 1: the environment, you really need to recover the refrigerant that's

571
00:29:37,320 --> 00:29:41,480
Speaker 1: in that system, both systems for that matter, and you

572
00:29:41,520 --> 00:29:43,800
Speaker 1: know you need to. Yeah, you need to recover the

573
00:29:43,800 --> 00:29:47,200
Speaker 1: refrigerment refrigerant. You know, it's it's not a question of

574
00:29:47,240 --> 00:29:49,360
Speaker 1: doing the right thing because somebody's watching. You're supposed to

575
00:29:49,400 --> 00:29:51,080
Speaker 1: do the right thing even if nobody's looking at you

576
00:29:51,120 --> 00:29:54,480
Speaker 1: in life. And that's how we create good karma. So

577
00:29:54,840 --> 00:29:58,480
Speaker 1: that being said, recovering refrigerant on both systems is the

578
00:29:58,480 --> 00:30:00,000
Speaker 1: way to go. And then it will be a man

579
00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:03,600
Speaker 1: out or of take the old compressor, the bad compressor,

580
00:30:04,240 --> 00:30:07,240
Speaker 1: and drain the oil from it, all right, and measure

581
00:30:07,280 --> 00:30:11,000
Speaker 1: how much you take out and drain the oil from

582
00:30:11,040 --> 00:30:15,040
Speaker 1: the good compressor and you know you could compare, but

583
00:30:15,120 --> 00:30:17,640
Speaker 1: it won't matter. But just you know, put the amount

584
00:30:17,680 --> 00:30:19,720
Speaker 1: of oil that was taken out of the old compressor

585
00:30:19,840 --> 00:30:23,600
Speaker 1: into the new compressor fresh oil, please rated for one

586
00:30:23,920 --> 00:30:27,360
Speaker 1: four refrigerant system and you know you could hand crank

587
00:30:27,400 --> 00:30:29,480
Speaker 1: it over and make sure it's still you know, lubricated,

588
00:30:29,520 --> 00:30:32,080
Speaker 1: working that the neither compressor is seized up with the

589
00:30:32,080 --> 00:30:36,000
Speaker 1: new compressor hasn't seized up and is damaged somehow from

590
00:30:36,000 --> 00:30:38,680
Speaker 1: sitting and you know you should be fine. And then yeah,

591
00:30:38,720 --> 00:30:41,320
Speaker 1: shop is gonna have to do an evac leak check

592
00:30:41,360 --> 00:30:44,800
Speaker 1: it and you know, get it on the road. It's

593
00:30:44,800 --> 00:30:46,720
Speaker 1: it definitely seems the cheaper way to go when you

594
00:30:46,760 --> 00:30:48,760
Speaker 1: compare it with the price of a new compressor, which

595
00:30:49,400 --> 00:30:51,240
Speaker 1: may or may not be available anymore. That car is

596
00:30:51,280 --> 00:30:55,760
Speaker 1: twenty years old. Yeah they stopped making them a two

597
00:30:55,760 --> 00:30:58,720
Speaker 1: thou eleven, so they said a lot of those babies around, right,

598
00:31:00,080 --> 00:31:01,760
Speaker 1: you know, but yeah, it's worth it's it's worth a

599
00:31:01,800 --> 00:31:04,360
Speaker 1: shot if you could find a way to you know,

600
00:31:04,440 --> 00:31:07,480
Speaker 1: evacuate the system on the car that doesn't run. You know,

601
00:31:07,480 --> 00:31:10,760
Speaker 1: a second time, I'm I'm telling the story I read

602
00:31:10,880 --> 00:31:18,640
Speaker 1: somewhere and somebody makes a portable refrigerant recovery kit. And

603
00:31:18,840 --> 00:31:22,240
Speaker 1: I recently sent a listen to the show to their

604
00:31:22,360 --> 00:31:25,000
Speaker 1: local Orillyoto parts or I believe they went out to

605
00:31:25,040 --> 00:31:28,040
Speaker 1: Oileyoto dot com. I don't know what the end result

606
00:31:28,080 --> 00:31:29,479
Speaker 1: of that was. To be honest with you, I've been

607
00:31:29,480 --> 00:31:31,320
Speaker 1: so busy in the shop and have time to research

608
00:31:31,400 --> 00:31:32,880
Speaker 1: up so I may be sending you up a dead

609
00:31:32,960 --> 00:31:35,560
Speaker 1: end alley. But you could take a look at orileyoto

610
00:31:35,640 --> 00:31:38,240
Speaker 1: dot com and see do they have a way for

611
00:31:38,280 --> 00:31:41,320
Speaker 1: the do it yourself or to recover refrigerant. It would

612
00:31:41,320 --> 00:31:44,000

00:31:48,320 --> 00:31:50,600
Speaker 1: there for the people that want to do it themselves

616
00:31:50,600 --> 00:31:52,800
Speaker 1: to recover their own refrigerant and then dispose of it

617
00:31:52,920 --> 00:31:56,239
Speaker 1: safely so they don't hurt the environment. And you know,

618

00:34:31,560 --> 00:34:35,640
Speaker 1: an engine in it would bring better resale value. Put

666
00:34:35,640 --> 00:34:38,520
Speaker 1: an engine in it, you know, and then while the

667
00:34:38,560 --> 00:34:41,439

668
00:34:41,560 --> 00:34:43,879
Speaker 1: it's the frames a little beat up and corroded, and
