Yeah, so we'll have 49 00:02:42,720 --> 00:02:46,440 Speaker 1: with the people down in And that was a good 50 00:02:46,440 --> 00:02:49,320 Speaker 1: super Bowl we got. We gotta give hats off to 51 00:02:49,400 --> 00:02:53,640 Speaker 1: him and the loss, the Patriots loss, that's what counts, um, 52 00:02:53,680 --> 00:02:55,560 Speaker 1: you know, and I guess that's what makes everybody happy. 53 00:02:55,600 --> 00:02:58,359 Speaker 1: I had no stake and that I you know, Um, 54 00:02:58,400 --> 00:03:00,000 Speaker 1: I was really rooting for the Jets, but they were 55 00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:02,720 Speaker 1: and even closer this year's Super Bowl. So um, you know, 56 00:03:02,760 --> 00:03:05,440 Speaker 1: I got nothing to say. I had a wild week. 57 00:03:05,960 --> 00:03:09,320 Speaker 1: I like, holy cow, you know we we You think 58 00:03:09,360 --> 00:03:11,720 Speaker 1: about the weeks you have and how do you get there. 59 00:03:11,720 --> 00:03:15,440 Speaker 1: It started out the week was sort of like Friday. 60 00:03:15,440 --> 00:03:18,919 Speaker 1: Friday was sort of depicted the depicted the week. Um, 61 00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:22,240 Speaker 1: everything was just one roller coaster after another. This week 62 00:03:22,560 --> 00:03:25,720 Speaker 1: the suburban, the trans in the suburban diet, and I realized, 63 00:03:25,720 --> 00:03:28,400 Speaker 1: that's like, okay, big deal of you know, a suburban 64 00:03:28,440 --> 00:03:31,320 Speaker 1: losser transit my two thousand four suburban fifty six thousand 65 00:03:31,320 --> 00:03:33,800 Speaker 1: miles and change, you know, trans fluid change on a 66 00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:37,400 Speaker 1: regular basis. Just been been sort of suffering with a 67 00:03:37,520 --> 00:03:40,680 Speaker 1: torque converter shutter issue for the past eight nine months, 68 00:03:40,720 --> 00:03:42,720 Speaker 1: just trying to nurse it along to see what can 69 00:03:42,760 --> 00:03:44,960 Speaker 1: I get away with. And it finally got to the 70 00:03:44,960 --> 00:03:46,960 Speaker 1: point where I pulled the pan down and found some 71 00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:49,480 Speaker 1: metal filings on top of the filter, and I said, 72 00:03:49,480 --> 00:03:51,160 Speaker 1: you know what we're done, Let's put a trans in it. 73 00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:56,520 Speaker 1: So it's exciting to see how difficult it is to 74 00:03:56,560 --> 00:04:01,240 Speaker 1: find proper parts for Jee's only uh, I's a fourteen 75 00:04:01,560 --> 00:04:05,120 Speaker 1: it's only fourteen years old. I can't understand why they 76 00:04:05,120 --> 00:04:07,160 Speaker 1: don't make parts for this anymore. It's it's why is 77 00:04:07,160 --> 00:04:09,320 Speaker 1: it so difficult? And they do, but they don't. So 78 00:04:09,320 --> 00:04:11,080 Speaker 1: I'm kind of going through that. So we're gonna comment 79 00:04:11,120 --> 00:04:13,040 Speaker 1: about that this hour, and then I have to tell 80 00:04:13,080 --> 00:04:16,280 Speaker 1: you about and I thought about each and every one 81 00:04:16,279 --> 00:04:18,400 Speaker 1: of you while this was happening, all right, you know, 82 00:04:18,400 --> 00:04:20,600 Speaker 1: I think about the audience, I think about the show. 83 00:04:20,720 --> 00:04:23,160 Speaker 1: I'm trying to fix cars and and and go through 84 00:04:23,160 --> 00:04:27,440 Speaker 1: the routine. I had ave Dodge Durangoh that came in 85 00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:31,479 Speaker 1: yesterday Friday, and Friday was as as nutty as the 86 00:04:31,480 --> 00:04:34,919 Speaker 1: whole week was. It started out with Friday morning. There 87 00:04:35,279 --> 00:04:38,000 Speaker 1: was a vehicle that had returned. We had done a 88 00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:39,680 Speaker 1: water pump on it the day before, and I found 89 00:04:39,720 --> 00:04:42,240 Speaker 1: it back at the shop on Friday morning and I said, 90 00:04:42,240 --> 00:04:44,279 Speaker 1: see what happened. This was a water pump. This is 91 00:04:44,279 --> 00:04:46,200 Speaker 1: pretty cut and dry. This is pretty simple and easy 92 00:04:46,200 --> 00:04:49,760 Speaker 1: to do. And sure enough, um, you know it was 93 00:04:49,920 --> 00:04:51,800 Speaker 1: we and we test drove it and Danny drove it 94 00:04:51,800 --> 00:04:53,440 Speaker 1: and I drove it. We you know, we were we 95 00:04:53,440 --> 00:04:57,200 Speaker 1: were good to go. And we ended up getting it 96 00:04:57,200 --> 00:04:59,479 Speaker 1: back Friday morning and I looked at it and they 97 00:04:59,560 --> 00:05:01,240 Speaker 1: filled that a little envelope and they said, yeah, the 98 00:05:01,279 --> 00:05:03,840 Speaker 1: check engine light popped on and it wasn't running right. 99 00:05:03,880 --> 00:05:05,800 Speaker 1: So we said, okay, let's take a look at this. 100 00:05:05,800 --> 00:05:08,600 Speaker 1: This is a new vehicle to us uh te Geep 101 00:05:08,680 --> 00:05:12,160 Speaker 1: Liberty that had about ninety tho miles on it and 102 00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:15,000 Speaker 1: ended up going through it was reporting a misfire on 103 00:05:15,080 --> 00:05:17,800 Speaker 1: cylinder three. Well, you know, I was looking for the 104 00:05:17,800 --> 00:05:20,479 Speaker 1: connection of how do we get a misfire, because right 105 00:05:20,520 --> 00:05:22,640 Speaker 1: away you think it's something you did. You start going 106 00:05:22,680 --> 00:05:24,760 Speaker 1: back and you start looking at, let's how do we 107 00:05:24,800 --> 00:05:26,839 Speaker 1: get a misfire out of a water pump, Like where's 108 00:05:26,839 --> 00:05:30,159 Speaker 1: the where's the connection there? And you know, you go 109 00:05:30,279 --> 00:05:32,400 Speaker 1: through the routine and I pulled number three coil out 110 00:05:32,440 --> 00:05:34,760 Speaker 1: and the only thing I noticed was there was no 111 00:05:34,839 --> 00:05:37,880 Speaker 1: dielectric grease on the rubber boot. Dielectric greases a ceiling 112 00:05:37,920 --> 00:05:40,920 Speaker 1: compound that we placed on the inside of spark plug boots, 113 00:05:40,920 --> 00:05:43,000 Speaker 1: coil boots, things like that to help ceil and keep 114 00:05:43,040 --> 00:05:47,239 Speaker 1: moisture out, and there was none there. So I said, Gee, 115 00:05:47,279 --> 00:05:49,760 Speaker 1: what if it's something as simple as that an older vehicle, 116 00:05:49,880 --> 00:05:53,520 Speaker 1: older plugs anyway, higher resistance in the circuit type of thing. Um, 117 00:05:53,600 --> 00:05:55,359 Speaker 1: let's put some dielectric grease in it, you know what. 118 00:05:55,440 --> 00:05:59,440 Speaker 1: Put diallectric grease into the car's fixed And you know, 119 00:05:59,480 --> 00:06:02,120 Speaker 1: we over more than a few times throughout the day 120 00:06:02,120 --> 00:06:03,800 Speaker 1: and sent it down the road. But it kind of 121 00:06:03,839 --> 00:06:06,800 Speaker 1: got the morning off yesterday Friday to a like, gee, 122 00:06:06,839 --> 00:06:10,960 Speaker 1: where's today gonna go?

I said, the high 135 00:06:45,360 --> 00:06:47,520 Speaker 1: beams worked, and he looked at me and I said, 136 00:06:47,560 --> 00:06:49,520 Speaker 1: and it also had an exhaust leak, which you guys 137 00:06:49,520 --> 00:06:51,039 Speaker 1: weren't aware of when you brought it in.

Those two incidents is when the day, 149 00:07:22,520 --> 00:07:24,240 Speaker 1: you know, you expect the day to go one way. 150 00:07:24,760 --> 00:07:27,040 Speaker 1: Kind of prepared me for what. Well, I don't know 151 00:07:27,080 --> 00:07:31,240 Speaker 1: if anything would have prepared me for what happened next. 152 00:07:31,280 --> 00:07:34,480 Speaker 1: The first vehicle of my morning, and I was starting 153 00:07:34,480 --> 00:07:36,320 Speaker 1: my morning now at eleven o'clock because I was a 154 00:07:36,320 --> 00:07:39,360 Speaker 1: little behind with everything else that was going on. Um, 155 00:07:39,720 --> 00:07:43,440 Speaker 1: was this Dodge Durango that was towed in for it 156 00:07:43,560 --> 00:07:46,119 Speaker 1: died on the road. It it lost the charging system. 157 00:07:46,200 --> 00:07:51,640 Speaker 1: The charging system output wasn't correct and I was able 158 00:07:51,720 --> 00:07:53,240 Speaker 1: to start it. I drove it and I parked it 159 00:07:53,240 --> 00:07:55,520 Speaker 1: in Bay three, and you know, I left it running. 160 00:07:55,520 --> 00:07:57,600 Speaker 1: I hooked up a scan tool and i'm I'm looking 161 00:07:57,640 --> 00:08:00,280 Speaker 1: and I looked at field control and and it was 162 00:08:00,320 --> 00:08:03,520 Speaker 1: charging acent. I said, wow, I said, this this really 163 00:08:03,640 --> 00:08:07,720 Speaker 1: is PCM is trying to work. But the alternator had 164 00:08:07,800 --> 00:08:11,720 Speaker 1: zero output. And this is the part. Well, this isn't 165 00:08:11,800 --> 00:08:15,400 Speaker 1: quite the part. So I turned around and I understand 166 00:08:15,480 --> 00:08:18,480 Speaker 1: the cars. I've got my back to the car.

It's it's over 329 00:16:35,080 --> 00:16:38,720 Speaker 1: on the passenger side there on the expansion tank. Okay, 330 00:16:38,760 --> 00:16:41,160 Speaker 1: So so what you want to do is you want 331 00:16:41,200 --> 00:16:43,720 Speaker 1: to on the expansion tank itself. Is a radiator cap, 332 00:16:43,840 --> 00:16:46,600 Speaker 1: is what you're saying, right, Yeah, that's what That's why 333 00:16:46,640 --> 00:16:49,440 Speaker 1: I recall it, which is the way that generation GM 334 00:16:49,480 --> 00:16:52,640 Speaker 1: product was, and a lot a lot more since. So 335 00:16:52,960 --> 00:16:56,760 Speaker 1: you know, do you do? You have an orailliotor parts nearby? Okay, 336 00:16:56,960 --> 00:17:00,000 Speaker 1: so get over to your local Orailioto parts. Tell them 337 00:17:00,000 --> 00:17:01,480 Speaker 1: what you tell them. What you want is you want 338 00:17:01,520 --> 00:17:03,920 Speaker 1: the yellow cooling system funnel. I'm gonna make you buy 339 00:17:03,960 --> 00:17:05,679 Speaker 1: some tools, but we like buying tools. That's a part 340 00:17:05,720 --> 00:17:08,040 Speaker 1: of why I think we work on cars. Um you 341 00:17:08,320 --> 00:17:10,879 Speaker 1: buy a yellow cooling system funnel kit, and you'll have 342 00:17:10,920 --> 00:17:14,520 Speaker 1: all these adapters and connectors and and and devices. The 343 00:17:14,640 --> 00:17:17,240 Speaker 1: basic idea is that and you may need to buy 344 00:17:17,280 --> 00:17:19,840 Speaker 1: a screw on adapt or so that you can screw 345 00:17:19,960 --> 00:17:23,120 Speaker 1: something onto the cooling bottle, all right, and then put 346 00:17:23,160 --> 00:17:26,439 Speaker 1: the funnel onto that adapter. And what I want you 347 00:17:26,520 --> 00:17:28,280 Speaker 1: to do is I want you to fill the cooling 348 00:17:28,359 --> 00:17:30,439 Speaker 1: system whenever you know, whenever you get around, if you 349 00:17:30,520 --> 00:17:33,600 Speaker 1: drain when you get around to filling using the funnel, 350 00:17:34,000 --> 00:17:36,679 Speaker 1: all right, and you want to leave a little bit 351 00:17:36,680 --> 00:17:39,160 Speaker 1: of space about halfway in the bottle usually works out 352 00:17:39,200 --> 00:17:43,960 Speaker 1: about right, and let the vehicle run, okay, And you're 353 00:17:44,000 --> 00:17:47,159 Speaker 1: gonna basically allow the vehicle to run. That funnel is 354 00:17:47,200 --> 00:17:50,320 Speaker 1: going to give you additional surge, all right, so that 355 00:17:50,560 --> 00:17:53,040 Speaker 1: so that the air can rise, that can rise, and 356 00:17:53,119 --> 00:17:56,280 Speaker 1: the bubble can come out and then drop, all right, 357 00:17:56,600 --> 00:17:59,240 Speaker 1: and you're gonna allow that process to repeat or probably 358 00:17:59,240 --> 00:18:01,440 Speaker 1: take you anywhere from twenty to thirty minutes to burn 359 00:18:01,520 --> 00:18:03,919 Speaker 1: the air out of this. If if if we were 360 00:18:03,960 --> 00:18:06,600 Speaker 1: at the shop, what I would be using as an 361 00:18:06,600 --> 00:18:10,399 Speaker 1: airlift tool. An airlift tool actually has a rubber cone 362 00:18:10,440 --> 00:18:16,040 Speaker 1: like device that squeezes down on the squeezes down on 363 00:18:16,280 --> 00:18:21,520 Speaker 1: the coolant bottle and allows me to extract air. So 364 00:18:21,640 --> 00:18:23,600 Speaker 1: I'll tell you what, Bruce, sit tight, let me pull 365 00:18:23,600 --> 00:18:25,160 Speaker 1: over and take this pause. When I come back, we'll 366 00:18:25,160 --> 00:18:38,040 Speaker 1: finish this. I'm reminating the car doctor. Don't go away, 367 00:18:38,080 --> 00:18:40,359 Speaker 1: that's right. If you call and we're not live, you 368 00:18:40,400 --> 00:18:42,199 Speaker 1: can leave a message and we'll call you back to 369 00:18:42,240 --> 00:18:45,800 Speaker 1: get you on the air. With Ron five five zero 370 00:18:46,000 --> 00:18:51,560 Speaker 1: nine nine zero zero. Speaking of Ron here he is, Hey, Bruce, 371 00:18:51,600 --> 00:18:55,080 Speaker 1: are you still there, sir? Yes, I am, sir. So 372 00:18:55,280 --> 00:18:57,880 Speaker 1: the idea here is that you want this coolant funnel, 373 00:18:58,440 --> 00:18:59,919 Speaker 1: and you want it to be sealed, you know when 374 00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:01,760 Speaker 1: just take a funnel and stick it in the bottle, 375 00:19:01,840 --> 00:19:04,679 Speaker 1: because the idea is that the coolant level is likely 376 00:19:04,800 --> 00:19:07,920 Speaker 1: going to rise up over the top of the neck 377 00:19:08,000 --> 00:19:10,520 Speaker 1: of the existing bottle and the cooling funnel. When you 378 00:19:10,560 --> 00:19:13,920 Speaker 1: see it, you'll understand it's the funnel probably stands oh, 379 00:19:14,200 --> 00:19:17,240 Speaker 1: you know, six seven inches high, so it gives you 380 00:19:17,400 --> 00:19:20,240 Speaker 1: a a a an air point for it to burp 381 00:19:20,400 --> 00:19:27,280 Speaker 1: up out of. All right, all right, yeah, it wasn't right. 382 00:19:27,440 --> 00:19:30,120 Speaker 1: That's that's the idea. If we were in the shop, 383 00:19:30,240 --> 00:19:32,280 Speaker 1: like I was saying, I would be using an airlift tool, 384 00:19:32,280 --> 00:19:34,200 Speaker 1: and an airlift tool basically, it's a rubber cone. It 385 00:19:34,240 --> 00:19:38,159 Speaker 1: goes in the bottle. We then extract and suck the 386 00:19:38,320 --> 00:19:40,760 Speaker 1: system in. We pull as much air out of it 387 00:19:40,840 --> 00:19:43,400 Speaker 1: as possible, and then we use that vacuum that we've created, 388 00:19:43,640 --> 00:19:46,000 Speaker 1: you know, and we like I like doing this, especially 389 00:19:46,040 --> 00:19:48,359 Speaker 1: on water part prepairs. Plus it's a very efficient and 390 00:19:48,520 --> 00:19:52,080 Speaker 1: fast way to do it because we will also see 391 00:19:52,119 --> 00:19:54,040 Speaker 1: how long the system holds vacuum, and at least we 392 00:19:54,080 --> 00:19:57,159 Speaker 1: know everything is into integral and and and connected and 393 00:19:57,320 --> 00:19:59,919 Speaker 1: and and sealed. And then we'll fill it with cooler 394 00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:01,960 Speaker 1: by just dropping a hose and a cooling bottle and 395 00:20:02,280 --> 00:20:04,360 Speaker 1: allowing it to draw itself in on its own. It's 396 00:20:04,359 --> 00:20:06,240 Speaker 1: a it's a. It's a it's a very efficient method, 397 00:20:06,320 --> 00:20:09,480 Speaker 1: but it's an expensive tool for a one time use thing. Um. 398 00:20:10,000 --> 00:20:12,760 Speaker 1: I also just have to comment to now, you're gonna 399 00:20:12,840 --> 00:20:16,159 Speaker 1: drain the radiator. Yeah, I think I'm gonna just do 400 00:20:16,320 --> 00:20:20,720 Speaker 1: the radiator and uh, you know the buck talks about 401 00:20:20,760 --> 00:20:24,359 Speaker 1: draining the block also, but um, I'll probably just do 402 00:20:24,560 --> 00:20:27,879 Speaker 1: a couple of radiator changes instead of the whole block. Right, 403 00:20:28,000 --> 00:20:31,640 Speaker 1: do you have Do you have rear heat in this vehicle? Yes, 404 00:20:32,320 --> 00:20:35,240 Speaker 1: so you're probably gonna have to, in my opinion, change 405 00:20:35,280 --> 00:20:38,119 Speaker 1: the coolant three to four times to get it to 406 00:20:38,200 --> 00:20:39,639 Speaker 1: get it all out. It's gonna be quite a bit, 407 00:20:40,000 --> 00:20:43,520 Speaker 1: you know. It's I always look for me. You know, 408 00:20:43,560 --> 00:20:45,760 Speaker 1: on Sunday, a lot of people read the comics. I 409 00:20:45,880 --> 00:20:48,000 Speaker 1: like reading the funny papers too on on Sunday. But 410 00:20:48,040 --> 00:20:51,119 Speaker 1: it's called the automotive ads, and I love reading the 411 00:20:51,200 --> 00:20:56,680 Speaker 1: I love reading about the coupons for coolant service. One 412 00:20:56,720 --> 00:20:59,399 Speaker 1: gallon of coolant and they do a coolant service, and 413 00:20:59,520 --> 00:21:03,280 Speaker 1: I just I'm like, really, you know, I think I 414 00:21:03,440 --> 00:21:08,040 Speaker 1: bet you that Tahoe has the system capacity of somewhere 415 00:21:08,119 --> 00:21:14,200 Speaker 1: between twelve and sixteen quarts, so that's upwards of four gallons. 416 00:21:14,280 --> 00:21:17,159 Speaker 1: If we were doing it on the machine at the shop, right, 417 00:21:17,160 --> 00:21:20,040 Speaker 1: because we use a coolant machine, we would take that 418 00:21:20,200 --> 00:21:24,359 Speaker 1: sixteen courts. For conversation's sake, I would probably run anywhere 419 00:21:24,480 --> 00:21:28,199 Speaker 1: from eighteen to twenty courts of coolant through that vehicle, 420 00:21:28,800 --> 00:21:31,959 Speaker 1: because you want to over you know, over extend the amount, 421 00:21:32,080 --> 00:21:34,080 Speaker 1: just to make sure you've you've gotten enough of it 422 00:21:34,200 --> 00:21:37,480 Speaker 1: out that let's see twenty courts of deck school. Have 423 00:21:37,600 --> 00:21:39,959 Speaker 1: your priced deck school, Bruce, you know what that's gonna cost, right, 424 00:21:41,880 --> 00:21:43,480 Speaker 1: um way, do you see that when you're when you're 425 00:21:43,480 --> 00:21:46,600 Speaker 1: at Orilly outoparts check that out? You know, So, all 426 00:21:46,600 --> 00:21:48,800 Speaker 1: of a sudden, doing this four times might get to 427 00:21:48,880 --> 00:21:50,880 Speaker 1: be too expensive. It might pay to have somebody doing 428 00:21:50,960 --> 00:21:53,800 Speaker 1: exchange on their on their with the machine. You know. 429 00:21:54,000 --> 00:21:56,399 Speaker 1: If there was an r automotive and less, I'd be 430 00:21:56,640 --> 00:21:59,359 Speaker 1: happy to take it to you there might be. Now 431 00:21:59,440 --> 00:22:01,280 Speaker 1: here's an tell you. I'll tell you why I say 432 00:22:01,359 --> 00:22:04,119 Speaker 1: that now. I just we talked about this from time 433 00:22:04,160 --> 00:22:06,159 Speaker 1: to time. Twenty seven years ago I started doing the 434 00:22:06,200 --> 00:22:08,720 Speaker 1: Car Doctor radio show as on a whim on a lark, 435 00:22:08,760 --> 00:22:10,399 Speaker 1: and I never really thought of what it would become. 436 00:22:11,119 --> 00:22:14,399 Speaker 1: And I've noticed, especially in the last ten years, if 437 00:22:14,440 --> 00:22:16,800 Speaker 1: you want to see something interesting, go google car Doctor 438 00:22:16,840 --> 00:22:20,240 Speaker 1: Auto Repair. It seems like I've created this cottage industry. 439 00:22:20,359 --> 00:22:23,440 Speaker 1: Everybody's a car doctor. Now. Everybody's a car doctor repair shop, 440 00:22:23,520 --> 00:22:28,440 Speaker 1: a car doctor. This, a car doctor that, um yeah, yeah, 441 00:22:28,520 --> 00:22:31,480 Speaker 1: I don't know I and you know, Bruce, it's really funny. 442 00:22:31,480 --> 00:22:33,320 Speaker 1: We've got, you know, the sign of the shop because 443 00:22:33,320 --> 00:22:35,399 Speaker 1: it sort of became the mantra Are Automotive Home of 444 00:22:35,440 --> 00:22:39,280 Speaker 1: the Car Doctor, um so A C. Delco. We became 445 00:22:39,280 --> 00:22:41,480 Speaker 1: an A C. Delco shop two years ago, three years 446 00:22:41,520 --> 00:22:44,760 Speaker 1: ago maybe a little longer, and they gave us a sign. 447 00:22:44,840 --> 00:22:46,639 Speaker 1: To the top of the sign says a C. Delco 448 00:22:47,000 --> 00:22:49,280 Speaker 1: and in the middle it says are Automotive and underneath 449 00:22:49,359 --> 00:22:51,840 Speaker 1: it says you know, um Ario dot com I think 450 00:22:51,920 --> 00:22:54,479 Speaker 1: or whatever. The website is nowhere on there doesn't say 451 00:22:54,480 --> 00:22:57,520 Speaker 1: anything about the car Doctor and yet people commit and 452 00:22:57,560 --> 00:22:59,520 Speaker 1: they go, is this the car doctor? You know? Is 453 00:22:59,560 --> 00:23:02,280 Speaker 1: this where the doctor isn't? You know? You know, I 454 00:23:02,320 --> 00:23:05,200 Speaker 1: feel like I feel like Doc Browning back to the future, Marty. 455 00:23:05,280 --> 00:23:08,119 Speaker 1: They found me. Um, you know that's a that's a 456 00:23:08,160 --> 00:23:11,040 Speaker 1: whole another thing. But that's that's how you're gonna do that, um, 457 00:23:11,440 --> 00:23:13,840 Speaker 1: you know, and that'll be a good exchange for you. Now, 458 00:23:14,080 --> 00:23:15,679 Speaker 1: let me ask you a question. How many miles are 459 00:23:15,760 --> 00:23:20,040 Speaker 1: on this So it's just it's just broken in brother, 460 00:23:20,119 --> 00:23:22,439 Speaker 1: don't forget about that. Don't forget about the other fluids, 461 00:23:22,480 --> 00:23:26,800 Speaker 1: you know, drive line, trans transfer case. Uh, yeah, you know, 462 00:23:27,080 --> 00:23:30,359 Speaker 1: it's everything just runs so good on this truck. Anything 463 00:23:30,960 --> 00:23:34,639 Speaker 1: well then you know. The only problem I've had is 464 00:23:34,920 --> 00:23:38,240 Speaker 1: as far as leaks, has been the water pump. Yeah, 465 00:23:38,400 --> 00:23:41,760 Speaker 1: that's wasn't the water pump. It was the bolts, right, 466 00:23:41,840 --> 00:23:44,280 Speaker 1: you know they're kind of long bolts. Yeah, talk at 467 00:23:44,320 --> 00:23:46,960 Speaker 1: a eight of the turn and that was that, right. Yeah, 468 00:23:47,000 --> 00:23:50,399 Speaker 1: it's it's that's cool as caustic stuff, It really is. 469 00:23:50,520 --> 00:23:53,440 Speaker 1: I don't agree with the five year life cycle of decks. Cool. 470 00:23:53,480 --> 00:23:55,639 Speaker 1: I try to do it every three to four and 471 00:23:56,040 --> 00:23:58,080 Speaker 1: while you're down at O'Reilly ot to parts. Make sure 472 00:23:58,119 --> 00:24:00,600 Speaker 1: you pick up a new radiator cap. Wouldn't hurt for 473 00:24:00,640 --> 00:24:03,119 Speaker 1: that cooling bottle, and and and take and take a 474 00:24:03,160 --> 00:24:04,879 Speaker 1: look at the bottle. All I can spend money on 475 00:24:04,960 --> 00:24:06,640 Speaker 1: a car. Brother, let me tell you, I start looking 476 00:24:06,680 --> 00:24:09,679 Speaker 1: at things. You know, it's it's it's take a look 477 00:24:09,720 --> 00:24:11,679 Speaker 1: at the cooling bottle. The cooling bottle has any kind 478 00:24:11,680 --> 00:24:13,600 Speaker 1: of muck to it, if it's discolored, if it's brown 479 00:24:13,640 --> 00:24:16,520 Speaker 1: at the bottom, just go buy a new bottle. You 480 00:24:16,640 --> 00:24:19,000 Speaker 1: simply because you're gonna well, because you're gonna pour that 481 00:24:19,160 --> 00:24:21,880 Speaker 1: nice fresh cooling even if it didn't exchange, You're gonna 482 00:24:21,920 --> 00:24:24,560 Speaker 1: pour that nice fresh cooling back into this mucky bottom. 483 00:24:25,000 --> 00:24:27,760 Speaker 1: What are you gonna do to it? It doesn't make 484 00:24:27,800 --> 00:24:30,520 Speaker 1: any sense. Three weeks ago I talked about the O 485 00:24:30,680 --> 00:24:33,560 Speaker 1: eight expedition. I did a b S I draw a 486 00:24:33,600 --> 00:24:38,240 Speaker 1: control unit and the master cylinder had this green crud 487 00:24:38,400 --> 00:24:39,840 Speaker 1: in it. For lack of a better way to put 488 00:24:39,880 --> 00:24:43,200 Speaker 1: it on family radio, And you know it looked like 489 00:24:43,320 --> 00:24:44,959 Speaker 1: from under cheese. You know, it looked like him from 490 00:24:45,040 --> 00:24:48,119 Speaker 1: under the seat. And you know you're gonna put a 491 00:24:48,920 --> 00:24:50,880 Speaker 1: control unit in the car without putting hundred and fifty 492 00:24:50,880 --> 00:24:54,480 Speaker 1: doll Master cylinder in it. It's so you know, yeah, 493 00:24:54,560 --> 00:24:56,840 Speaker 1: go ahead and uh, you know, do a good bottle 494 00:24:56,880 --> 00:24:59,440 Speaker 1: to a cap yep. Yeah, I'm just afraid of what 495 00:24:59,520 --> 00:25:01,680 Speaker 1: it might find. And if I look too close, well, 496 00:25:03,480 --> 00:25:05,520 Speaker 1: I can cure you of that. I can cure your 497 00:25:05,640 --> 00:25:08,080 Speaker 1: that very easily. You want to you want me to 498 00:25:08,160 --> 00:25:10,080 Speaker 1: prove to you if if you really like this car, 499 00:25:10,119 --> 00:25:12,199 Speaker 1: and this car has been good to you, all right, 500 00:25:12,920 --> 00:25:15,080 Speaker 1: the way you cure yourself of whether or not you 501 00:25:15,119 --> 00:25:17,960 Speaker 1: want to work on it is go price a new one, 502 00:25:19,520 --> 00:25:22,399 Speaker 1: all right. I have, I have, and I you know, 503 00:25:22,560 --> 00:25:24,879 Speaker 1: even sad in it. And they made the new one longer. 504 00:25:25,000 --> 00:25:27,600 Speaker 1: It won't hit on the garage, so easy, right, And 505 00:25:27,920 --> 00:25:31,520 Speaker 1: it's it's you know, I priced a new suburban seventy 506 00:25:31,600 --> 00:25:35,200 Speaker 1: two tho dollars. You know, the trans went this The 507 00:25:35,640 --> 00:25:38,360 Speaker 1: trans went this week on on the bus. I looked 508 00:25:38,400 --> 00:25:41,560 Speaker 1: at it. I went seventy two grand. You know it's 509 00:25:41,640 --> 00:25:44,239 Speaker 1: probably and you know, listen, I'm doing a trans, I'm 510 00:25:44,280 --> 00:25:46,960 Speaker 1: doing a starter, I'm doing the trans cooler lines, I'm 511 00:25:47,520 --> 00:25:51,040 Speaker 1: doing you know, and I'm painting everything. I'm under there 512 00:25:51,080 --> 00:25:53,119 Speaker 1: with Benjamin Moore by the gallon. I'm gonna have the 513 00:25:53,160 --> 00:25:56,680 Speaker 1: most rustproof for us free oh four suburban, fifty six 514 00:25:56,720 --> 00:25:59,040 Speaker 1: thousand miles you ever saw in your life. It's it's 515 00:26:00,040 --> 00:26:02,680 Speaker 1: it's you know, it's because I'm just not I'm just 516 00:26:02,800 --> 00:26:04,840 Speaker 1: not ready to spend seventy two grand to go, you know, 517 00:26:04,960 --> 00:26:07,960 Speaker 1: seven minutes from ariot a motive to home. Um, it doesn't, 518 00:26:08,000 --> 00:26:11,280 Speaker 1: it doesn't make any sense. So but um, you know 519 00:26:11,359 --> 00:26:13,480 Speaker 1: you can cure yourself and wanting to work on a vehicle. 520 00:26:13,600 --> 00:26:14,960 Speaker 1: Just go price a new one. And I'm not saying 521 00:26:15,000 --> 00:26:16,920 Speaker 1: never buy a new one. Just make sure that's what 522 00:26:17,000 --> 00:26:21,160 Speaker 1: you really want, all right, Okay, Well, thanks Ron, Thanks Bruce. 523 00:26:21,480 --> 00:26:24,680 Speaker 1: We appreciate you.

So yeah, 525 00:26:27,880 --> 00:26:30,680 Speaker 1: that's um, that is the one turroal of of do 526 00:26:30,800 --> 00:26:32,919 Speaker 1: I really want to work on a new cards. It's scary. 527 00:26:33,119 --> 00:26:36,199 Speaker 1: Their phone numbers, you know, they're not price tags anywhere. 528 00:26:36,240 --> 00:26:39,080 Speaker 1: Their phone numbers. I told Susie, I said, hey, seventy 529 00:26:39,080 --> 00:26:41,239 Speaker 1: two thou dollars new suburban. She said, you know, our 530 00:26:41,320 --> 00:26:44,119 Speaker 1: first house was ninety three thousand dollars. And I'm not 531 00:26:44,240 --> 00:26:47,040 Speaker 1: ancient here, folks, I mean I'm old, but I'm not ancient. Uh, 532 00:26:47,080 --> 00:26:49,800 Speaker 1: you know what, She's not wrong. Um, and I think 533 00:26:49,840 --> 00:26:51,480 Speaker 1: the house is a little bit bigger than the suburban. 534 00:26:51,640 --> 00:26:54,280 Speaker 1: Not much, but a little bit. So eight five five 535 00:26:54,400 --> 00:26:58,959 Speaker 1: five zero nine zero zero. Let's uh, let's pull over 536 00:26:59,000 --> 00:27:00,440 Speaker 1: and take a pause. I'll be back right after this. 537 00:27:02,240 --> 00:27:12,960 Speaker 1: People take Now, who's this thing? If you who's who's 538 00:27:13,000 --> 00:27:17,840 Speaker 1: that singing? Mr? Tony Okay? For some reason, that sounded 539 00:27:17,840 --> 00:27:19,480 Speaker 1: like something else. I thought we're gonna start talking about 540 00:27:20,160 --> 00:27:24,440 Speaker 1: TESTA that's out in space, Um, that they launched this week. 541 00:27:24,800 --> 00:27:26,560 Speaker 1: You have a lot of time on your hands, don't you. 542 00:27:26,920 --> 00:27:30,600 Speaker 1: Well not really, actually yeah I do. Um, you know 543 00:27:30,640 --> 00:27:33,560 Speaker 1: I was thinking, well, that's a whole another conversation. Speaking 544 00:27:33,640 --> 00:27:36,520 Speaker 1: speaking of time, UM, don't make any You've already had 545 00:27:36,560 --> 00:27:38,640 Speaker 1: to put out one fire this week. Please don't think, well, 546 00:27:38,720 --> 00:27:40,679 Speaker 1: I know that's what that smell as you can jell. 547 00:27:40,720 --> 00:27:46,199 Speaker 1: I'm thinking it's that smoke. Um. Saturday March company meeting, Uh, 548 00:27:46,280 --> 00:27:49,160 Speaker 1: Saturday March seventeen. Don't make any plans because we're gonna 549 00:27:49,200 --> 00:27:50,680 Speaker 1: take this gig on the road. We're going out to 550 00:27:50,720 --> 00:27:53,200 Speaker 1: the T S T Big event over there in Westchester, 551 00:27:53,359 --> 00:27:55,280 Speaker 1: so we'll be doing a we'll be doing the show 552 00:27:55,400 --> 00:27:58,520 Speaker 1: live from the T s T floor, interviewing technicians and 553 00:27:58,960 --> 00:28:02,119 Speaker 1: industrial lum and the industry big wigs and things like that. 554 00:28:02,280 --> 00:28:05,640 Speaker 1: So the radio show that day will be a a remote. 555 00:28:06,040 --> 00:28:08,480 Speaker 1: So look forward to that the TST big event the 556 00:28:08,520 --> 00:28:12,000 Speaker 1: Westchester Marriott, Terrytown, New York. Um, let's see what's going 557 00:28:12,040 --> 00:28:15,280 Speaker 1: on here in present day? Now, Mick from Oregon, Mick, 558 00:28:15,359 --> 00:28:16,920 Speaker 1: did we fix this car yet? Or what's going on 559 00:28:17,040 --> 00:28:21,159 Speaker 1: with this thing? No? I'm still battling it. The saga continues. 560 00:28:21,480 --> 00:28:23,760 Speaker 1: You know, listen, if you wait till Monday, I'll probably 561 00:28:23,800 --> 00:28:25,760 Speaker 1: have an alternator from a dodge. The wrangle, I'll ship 562 00:28:25,800 --> 00:28:28,160 Speaker 1: you're no charge. You put that on the jeep. Twenty minutes, 563 00:28:28,200 --> 00:28:30,080 Speaker 1: the whole problem be solved. That thing will catch fire. 564 00:28:30,160 --> 00:28:33,720 Speaker 1: It's done. Um, you don't have anything to worry about. Um. 565 00:28:33,840 --> 00:28:35,560 Speaker 1: And you can just tell you can just tell your kids, Hey, 566 00:28:35,560 --> 00:28:37,359 Speaker 1: we're gonna have a barbecue and a wheenie roast and 567 00:28:37,480 --> 00:28:40,400 Speaker 1: it's going to be the jeep. So where where where 568 00:28:40,440 --> 00:28:43,360 Speaker 1: do we leave this last week? Okay, where we laughed 569 00:28:43,360 --> 00:28:47,200 Speaker 1: at is is? Uh uh? I rolled on the trank 570 00:28:47,480 --> 00:28:50,320 Speaker 1: shaft fully, there's a there's a mark and we were 571 00:28:50,400 --> 00:28:53,000 Speaker 1: gonna see where the rotor was playing. Yeah, yeah, yeah, 572 00:28:53,000 --> 00:28:56,560 Speaker 1: that's right, yep, indexing, okay, So I rolled it up. 573 00:28:56,920 --> 00:29:00,880 Speaker 1: I rolled the engine over till the mark was on top, UM, 574 00:29:01,520 --> 00:29:05,480 Speaker 1: and I index the distributor housing pulled off the cap. 575 00:29:06,360 --> 00:29:12,840 Speaker 1: It was pointed right at number one. UM. So the 576 00:29:13,000 --> 00:29:15,680 Speaker 1: mark being on top, it's it's kind of hard to 577 00:29:15,760 --> 00:29:20,120 Speaker 1: see exactly on top. So I pulled out the number 578 00:29:20,160 --> 00:29:23,760 Speaker 1: one plug and I rolled the engine over till the 579 00:29:23,840 --> 00:29:26,840 Speaker 1: plug was all the way up. And when I did that, 580 00:29:27,720 --> 00:29:32,880 Speaker 1: the the rotor was passed one by like um proximately 581 00:29:32,960 --> 00:29:38,120 Speaker 1: an inch, And the mark on the pulley wasn't about 582 00:29:38,200 --> 00:29:44,280 Speaker 1: one o'clock are usual, while we should be the tip 583 00:29:44,320 --> 00:29:49,960 Speaker 1: of the rotor has to be one tooth past the 584 00:29:50,480 --> 00:29:53,120 Speaker 1: number one tower. I don't think that's an inch. That's 585 00:29:53,200 --> 00:29:55,680 Speaker 1: not quite that's probably more like three eighths of an inch. 586 00:29:56,520 --> 00:30:01,040 Speaker 1: Are we sure the balancer hasn't slipped on the center um. 587 00:30:01,200 --> 00:30:06,520 Speaker 1: I pulled the belt off and everything felt tight down there. 588 00:30:07,280 --> 00:30:09,280 Speaker 1: Then you're either on the wrong mark on the balance 589 00:30:09,360 --> 00:30:11,280 Speaker 1: or the wrong mark on the front of the timing cover. 590 00:30:13,520 --> 00:30:15,200 Speaker 1: But that let me, let me, let me put it 591 00:30:15,280 --> 00:30:17,880 Speaker 1: here this way, either that or there's something physically wrong 592 00:30:18,040 --> 00:30:21,719 Speaker 1: mechanically this engine. Either that or this engine is mechanically 593 00:30:21,760 --> 00:30:26,800 Speaker 1: out of time for some reason. So you may be 594 00:30:26,960 --> 00:30:29,200 Speaker 1: looking right at the problem here. I mean, you know, 595 00:30:29,360 --> 00:30:31,520 Speaker 1: top dead center on number one. That rotor has gotta 596 00:30:31,600 --> 00:30:33,520 Speaker 1: line up. It's got to be within it's got to 597 00:30:33,560 --> 00:30:35,880 Speaker 1: be within one tooth of the number one tower. Typically 598 00:30:36,040 --> 00:30:41,360 Speaker 1: it comes out to about twenty thousands of an inch. Um. Yeah, 599 00:30:41,400 --> 00:30:43,280 Speaker 1: when I rolled it up where the mark was on top, 600 00:30:43,360 --> 00:30:45,600 Speaker 1: it was pointing right out one. And then when I 601 00:30:45,680 --> 00:30:48,240 Speaker 1: pulled the plug and watched the piston come all the 602 00:30:48,280 --> 00:30:51,320 Speaker 1: way to the top, my rotor was past one and 603 00:30:51,440 --> 00:30:55,120 Speaker 1: the mark was over at one o'clock. Right, something sounds 604 00:30:55,160 --> 00:30:57,040 Speaker 1: like you're mechanically out of time. I mean it's hard 605 00:30:57,080 --> 00:30:59,880 Speaker 1: for me to see obviously without pictures and and and 606 00:31:00,240 --> 00:31:04,720 Speaker 1: so forth. Jumped could have jumped time with that of 607 00:31:06,560 --> 00:31:09,240 Speaker 1: my experience on these is if it jumped, if it 608 00:31:09,360 --> 00:31:12,240 Speaker 1: ever jumped time that much, and to be easier to say, yeah, 609 00:31:12,240 --> 00:31:15,120 Speaker 1: it jump time and just hang up. But um, understand 610 00:31:15,160 --> 00:31:17,040 Speaker 1: where I'm coming from. If it jumped time that much, 611 00:31:17,240 --> 00:31:20,440 Speaker 1: it would it probably wouldn't be running all right. If 612 00:31:20,480 --> 00:31:23,120 Speaker 1: it has the ability to jump time. I can't say 613 00:31:23,160 --> 00:31:27,000 Speaker 1: I've ever seen a mechanical chain motor jump time and 614 00:31:27,160 --> 00:31:31,280 Speaker 1: still run to this degree. Okay, Now, when I had 615 00:31:31,360 --> 00:31:34,240 Speaker 1: the belt off and I was wiggling around on the 616 00:31:35,680 --> 00:31:39,720 Speaker 1: camp shout fully, I could feel like because back and forth, 617 00:31:39,840 --> 00:31:42,640 Speaker 1: I could feel like a little bit of slop in 618 00:31:42,720 --> 00:31:45,400 Speaker 1: the timing chain. Okay, let me ask you this question. 619 00:31:45,520 --> 00:31:48,480 Speaker 1: Can you how much can you rotate the crank before 620 00:31:48,520 --> 00:31:53,840 Speaker 1: you pick up the distributor moving? I'll have to check that, 621 00:31:54,720 --> 00:31:56,400 Speaker 1: all right, I'll tell you what sit tight. Let me 622 00:31:56,440 --> 00:32:00,560 Speaker 1: pull over and take this plause zero. The doctors coming 623 00:32:00,640 --> 00:32:06,720 Speaker 1: right back. Don't go away. Welcome back, doctor. Let's real 624 00:32:06,800 --> 00:32:08,479 Speaker 1: quick to back the mix from Oregon and make you're there, 625 00:32:08,520 --> 00:32:14,480 Speaker 1: sir Mick, Yes, yes, sir so um, we're back. Let's uh, 626 00:32:14,760 --> 00:32:16,720 Speaker 1: let's pick up where where were we when we pulled away? 627 00:32:16,760 --> 00:32:19,680 Speaker 1: Where we were talking about that? You're you're you're asking 628 00:32:19,720 --> 00:32:21,920 Speaker 1: about how how how far are I going to move 629 00:32:22,280 --> 00:32:27,840 Speaker 1: the crank shaft until the ruder moves? Um? I'm really 630 00:32:27,880 --> 00:32:30,720 Speaker 1: not sure, but I know that I can move. I 631 00:32:30,800 --> 00:32:33,040 Speaker 1: can move the crank shaft about a quarter of an 632 00:32:33,080 --> 00:32:37,440 Speaker 1: inch before. Does that feels like to slop in the chain. 633 00:32:37,920 --> 00:32:40,680 Speaker 1: That quarter of an inch doesn't bother me. That's that's 634 00:32:41,080 --> 00:32:43,440 Speaker 1: that's not excessive. When you're saying quarter of an inch 635 00:32:44,320 --> 00:32:49,280 Speaker 1: before the distributor rotor starts to turn, I'll have to 636 00:32:49,400 --> 00:32:52,680 Speaker 1: check that off to see off to see when I'm 637 00:32:53,200 --> 00:32:55,560 Speaker 1: I haven't looked. I haven't checked that yet, right, But 638 00:32:55,800 --> 00:32:58,440 Speaker 1: it's it sounds like you're onto something. Listen. You know 639 00:32:58,760 --> 00:33:01,200 Speaker 1: top dead is top dead. That pistons the top dead 640 00:33:01,280 --> 00:33:04,120 Speaker 1: on number one. And you're sure you're a top dead 641 00:33:04,720 --> 00:33:07,640 Speaker 1: all right, yeah, I'm positive you know you you've you 642 00:33:07,720 --> 00:33:09,200 Speaker 1: stick your finger in the hole or you know, in 643 00:33:09,240 --> 00:33:10,720 Speaker 1: the old days, we put a rubber hose with a 644 00:33:10,760 --> 00:33:13,200 Speaker 1: whistle and we cranked the engine around and when it 645 00:33:13,240 --> 00:33:14,920 Speaker 1: would blow the whistle, you were a top dead. It 646 00:33:15,000 --> 00:33:16,360 Speaker 1: was a it was a way to find it. Or 647 00:33:16,440 --> 00:33:18,800 Speaker 1: we'd we'd put a piece of rope in there and 648 00:33:18,840 --> 00:33:21,840 Speaker 1: have it pushed the rope out, and I took a 649 00:33:21,840 --> 00:33:24,960 Speaker 1: little weld and rod and watched it rise all the 650 00:33:25,000 --> 00:33:28,240 Speaker 1: way to the top and then that's top that's that's 651 00:33:28,320 --> 00:33:32,520 Speaker 1: that's top dead. Then the rotor was Yeah, it was pointed. 652 00:33:32,640 --> 00:33:35,400 Speaker 1: It was pointed probably about three eight or half an 653 00:33:35,400 --> 00:33:39,520 Speaker 1: inch past where number one is something something's out of 654 00:33:39,560 --> 00:33:43,720 Speaker 1: index there unless unless the gear on the distributor. I'm 655 00:33:43,760 --> 00:33:45,800 Speaker 1: trying to remember. I think there's a if I remember right, 656 00:33:45,840 --> 00:33:48,680 Speaker 1: there's a roll pin that pins the gear to the 657 00:33:48,720 --> 00:33:53,160 Speaker 1: distributor shift unless the pin broke and it's twisted on 658 00:33:53,240 --> 00:33:55,200 Speaker 1: the shaft. But why it wouldn't I guess it could 659 00:33:55,240 --> 00:33:57,720 Speaker 1: do that. I haven't. I can't say I've seen that 660 00:33:57,840 --> 00:34:00,760 Speaker 1: one in a while. I pulled it tributor out, it 661 00:34:00,880 --> 00:34:05,560 Speaker 1: looks it looks like it's all intact um. You know, 662 00:34:05,680 --> 00:34:07,680 Speaker 1: it's just got a bolt that holds it in. There's 663 00:34:07,720 --> 00:34:09,600 Speaker 1: no adjustments to it. What if you what if you 664 00:34:09,640 --> 00:34:11,640 Speaker 1: put the distributor back in with it number one under 665 00:34:11,680 --> 00:34:16,600 Speaker 1: the under the tower, how does it run? I'd have 666 00:34:16,719 --> 00:34:18,480 Speaker 1: to I'd have to hold it there because I wouldn't 667 00:34:18,480 --> 00:34:21,840 Speaker 1: be able to bolt it down because it has it 668 00:34:21,960 --> 00:34:24,239 Speaker 1: just has an ear where one bolt fits to hold 669 00:34:24,280 --> 00:34:26,880 Speaker 1: distributor down. So what I was wondering is if I 670 00:34:26,960 --> 00:34:30,799 Speaker 1: pulled that bull bolt and I rotated that distributor where 671 00:34:30,800 --> 00:34:33,680 Speaker 1: it should be and see what it did. Yeah, listen, 672 00:34:33,760 --> 00:34:35,839 Speaker 1: just mark everything. So if you have to go back 673 00:34:35,880 --> 00:34:39,360 Speaker 1: to where it was, you can. But you know you 674 00:34:39,440 --> 00:34:41,920 Speaker 1: surely can hurt it. Listen, it's already broke. Can you 675 00:34:42,080 --> 00:34:44,279 Speaker 1: once you once your break of base? Can you break 676 00:34:44,280 --> 00:34:47,680 Speaker 1: it anymore than it already is? No? But I did 677 00:34:47,840 --> 00:34:51,839 Speaker 1: notice that that distributor will only go in one way. 678 00:34:52,760 --> 00:34:55,000 Speaker 1: It'll go it'll go in one way, and I'll go in. 679 00:34:56,160 --> 00:34:58,040 Speaker 1: But like trying to move it a tooth over, you 680 00:34:58,120 --> 00:35:00,280 Speaker 1: can't do it right. And that's where they talk about 681 00:35:00,360 --> 00:35:03,239 Speaker 1: modifying the distributor in order to make it fit. But 682 00:35:03,320 --> 00:35:06,040 Speaker 1: then for it to be off that much just seems 683 00:35:06,080 --> 00:35:09,520 Speaker 1: excessive to me. It seems excessive to me. To me 684 00:35:09,600 --> 00:35:11,880 Speaker 1: a favorite, just verify that we've really got the right 685 00:35:11,920 --> 00:35:14,440 Speaker 1: mark on the front of the cover, and and and 686 00:35:14,520 --> 00:35:16,680 Speaker 1: see what that gets you. I just just but you're 687 00:35:16,719 --> 00:35:19,080 Speaker 1: on the right track. Something's wrong here. I just can't 688 00:35:19,120 --> 00:35:21,120 Speaker 1: tell you from my seat because I can't see the 689 00:35:21,200 --> 00:35:22,800 Speaker 1: picture of it. But take a better look at it. 690 00:35:22,880 --> 00:35:25,439 Speaker 1: You're you're close to something. I'm not any in the car, doctor. 691 00:35:25,560 --> 00:35:28,000 Speaker 1: The mechanics aren't expensive, they're priceless. Seeing
