1 00:00:02,640 --> 00:00:05,200 Speaker 1: Rod An Indian. One thing, I know. The way my 2 00:00:05,360 --> 00:00:09,039 Speaker 1: dad did order repair and the way o'bdoing order repair 3 00:00:09,640 --> 00:00:12,639 Speaker 1: is not going to be the same way in twenty years. 4 00:00:12,920 --> 00:00:15,160 Speaker 1: My kid a little greasy. 5 00:00:15,920 --> 00:00:21,040 Speaker 2: If my banboity won't break with things get hard the 6 00:00:21,120 --> 00:00:22,120 Speaker 2: way they do. 7 00:00:22,480 --> 00:00:24,479 Speaker 1: You don't just walk away. 8 00:00:25,840 --> 00:00:29,760 Speaker 3: My start a little rusty, but it'll. 9 00:00:29,480 --> 00:00:37,560 Speaker 1: Shine stops easty. What he knew all of all, we 10 00:00:37,560 --> 00:00:41,120 Speaker 1: weren't just fixing cars, the car Doctor. 11 00:00:41,280 --> 00:00:43,600 Speaker 4: Can it get through like the next six months with 12 00:00:43,720 --> 00:00:44,480 Speaker 4: two out of three? 13 00:00:44,880 --> 00:00:48,360 Speaker 1: Probably? You know if your sister's not. If your sister's 14 00:00:48,400 --> 00:00:50,400 Speaker 1: not going to be the little old lady from Pasadena 15 00:00:50,479 --> 00:00:51,559 Speaker 1: and go drag racing with. 16 00:00:51,560 --> 00:00:53,000 Speaker 5: It, definitely not. 17 00:00:53,320 --> 00:00:54,320 Speaker 4: You're like the opposite. 18 00:00:54,400 --> 00:00:57,320 Speaker 3: Welcome to the radio home of ron An Aian, the 19 00:00:57,360 --> 00:01:00,800 Speaker 3: Car Doctor. Since nineteen ninety one, this is where car 20 00:01:00,880 --> 00:01:04,640 Speaker 3: owners the world overturned to for their definitive opinion on 21 00:01:04,760 --> 00:01:08,480 Speaker 3: automotive repair. If your mechanics giving you a busy signal, 22 00:01:08,640 --> 00:01:12,440 Speaker 3: pick up the phone and call in the garage doors car. 23 00:01:12,280 --> 00:01:14,080 Speaker 1: Open here, but I am here to take your calls 24 00:01:14,360 --> 00:01:16,800 Speaker 1: at eight five five five six ninety nine hundred and 25 00:01:16,920 --> 00:01:18,160 Speaker 1: now pee. 26 00:01:20,400 --> 00:01:20,760 Speaker 2: Running. 27 00:01:21,560 --> 00:01:26,280 Speaker 1: Well, that was kind of spooky and only Tom Ray 28 00:01:26,280 --> 00:01:29,039 Speaker 1: and I will understand that, because as you heard the 29 00:01:29,040 --> 00:01:31,640 Speaker 1: conversation we had just before the show, and then that 30 00:01:31,720 --> 00:01:35,800 Speaker 1: opening rolls around, and I guess we aren't just fixing cars, 31 00:01:35,840 --> 00:01:38,920 Speaker 1: are we, Tom? You know, we're fixing people and changing lives. 32 00:01:38,920 --> 00:01:42,480 Speaker 1: And I guess that's what it's all about. People's faces, Yep, 33 00:01:42,680 --> 00:01:45,280 Speaker 1: I think. So I want to talk a little bit 34 00:01:45,319 --> 00:01:48,600 Speaker 1: about this nine Honda Odyssey that I had this week. 35 00:01:48,600 --> 00:01:51,880 Speaker 1: P zero three twenty five. P zero three twenty five 36 00:01:51,960 --> 00:01:54,040 Speaker 1: is a knock sens or fault, and it's it's it 37 00:01:54,120 --> 00:01:57,240 Speaker 1: can be a little debilitating because it it P zero 38 00:01:57,240 --> 00:01:59,760 Speaker 1: three twenty five in any vehicle is a little difficult 39 00:01:59,760 --> 00:02:03,720 Speaker 1: to find sometimes and more often than not, it's it's 40 00:02:03,760 --> 00:02:05,240 Speaker 1: the result of what I'm going to tell you here, 41 00:02:05,240 --> 00:02:08,920 Speaker 1: and that's kind of a general blanket statement across multiple 42 00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:12,160 Speaker 1: car lines. This P zero three twenty five is a 43 00:02:12,240 --> 00:02:15,560 Speaker 1: knock sensor fault. A knock sensor is a device that 44 00:02:15,960 --> 00:02:19,440 Speaker 1: tells the onboard computer whether or not the engine is 45 00:02:19,600 --> 00:02:24,000 Speaker 1: pinging or detonating or knocking, generally from poor gasoline. Remember 46 00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:26,640 Speaker 1: the if you're old enough to remember this, but you know, 47 00:02:26,760 --> 00:02:29,880 Speaker 1: I remember the bad gasoline cars of the seventies and 48 00:02:29,919 --> 00:02:32,200 Speaker 1: the eighties where if you ran and octane too low, 49 00:02:32,320 --> 00:02:34,800 Speaker 1: or you were pulling the hill and there were carbon 50 00:02:34,840 --> 00:02:38,760 Speaker 1: deposits and knocking and detonation, all sorts of things going 51 00:02:38,800 --> 00:02:41,080 Speaker 1: on that the engine would struggle and chuggle and it 52 00:02:41,120 --> 00:02:43,639 Speaker 1: was too much timing. It was too much spark advance right, 53 00:02:44,360 --> 00:02:46,520 Speaker 1: and they always told you go to a higher octane 54 00:02:46,639 --> 00:02:51,239 Speaker 1: or get a decarbonization, and you know, something along those lines, 55 00:02:51,280 --> 00:02:53,520 Speaker 1: maybe retard timing a little bit. On an older engine, 56 00:02:53,600 --> 00:02:55,680 Speaker 1: maybe it had a bad timing chain. There's all sorts 57 00:02:55,680 --> 00:02:58,080 Speaker 1: of things and all sorts of problems that you know, 58 00:02:58,160 --> 00:03:01,400 Speaker 1: generated off a conversation about hey, engine makes noise going uphill. 59 00:03:01,440 --> 00:03:05,920 Speaker 1: It struggles well, along can computer cars and computer cars, 60 00:03:06,080 --> 00:03:10,560 Speaker 1: you know, change the game. They added sensors, they added controls. 61 00:03:10,639 --> 00:03:13,240 Speaker 1: They were just trying to make the engine more efficient. 62 00:03:13,280 --> 00:03:15,520 Speaker 1: They were trying to control emissions. They were trying to 63 00:03:15,639 --> 00:03:17,799 Speaker 1: make them more maintenance free, they were trying to make 64 00:03:17,840 --> 00:03:20,320 Speaker 1: them last longer, and in many ways they achieved that. 65 00:03:20,400 --> 00:03:24,320 Speaker 1: They did. They did set that up. It's it's gotten better. 66 00:03:24,360 --> 00:03:27,080 Speaker 1: It's gotten better. It's gotten worse in some cases, but 67 00:03:27,560 --> 00:03:31,240 Speaker 1: for the most part, it's gotten better. Enter this nine 68 00:03:31,320 --> 00:03:33,880 Speaker 1: Honda Odyssey P zero three twenty five that tells the 69 00:03:33,919 --> 00:03:38,000 Speaker 1: onboard computer that it did not receive a signal from 70 00:03:38,000 --> 00:03:41,280 Speaker 1: the knock sensor. Well, and you ask yourself, yeah, but ron, 71 00:03:41,320 --> 00:03:43,480 Speaker 1: if it's only going to tell the computer when the 72 00:03:43,720 --> 00:03:47,800 Speaker 1: engine is pinging or making noise from too much spark, 73 00:03:48,720 --> 00:03:50,680 Speaker 1: how does it know if the engine's running good? Well, 74 00:03:50,680 --> 00:03:54,400 Speaker 1: that's simple. What the computer will do is it will 75 00:03:54,600 --> 00:03:57,200 Speaker 1: it will advance spark. It will bring the engine up 76 00:03:57,200 --> 00:04:00,360 Speaker 1: to at a given time and moment in the engines 77 00:04:00,400 --> 00:04:04,880 Speaker 1: operating day. It will advanced spark right, run the timing 78 00:04:04,960 --> 00:04:09,440 Speaker 1: up until it just starts to hear noise. All right, 79 00:04:09,520 --> 00:04:12,320 Speaker 1: it's that faint distance hollow. It's kind of like you 80 00:04:12,360 --> 00:04:14,920 Speaker 1: know when Mom would yell out the back window dinner time, 81 00:04:14,960 --> 00:04:17,080 Speaker 1: and you, yeah, is that really mom? Yet? Better be mam, 82 00:04:17,120 --> 00:04:19,360 Speaker 1: mothers I'm getting the spoon when I get home, so 83 00:04:20,200 --> 00:04:25,440 Speaker 1: not to feed me. And it sees and hears that signal. 84 00:04:25,760 --> 00:04:28,640 Speaker 1: It sees it electronically, It hears it electronically every way 85 00:04:28,680 --> 00:04:31,040 Speaker 1: you want to think about it, and it says, okay, 86 00:04:31,080 --> 00:04:33,839 Speaker 1: that circuits working. I can now trust the knock sensor. 87 00:04:34,400 --> 00:04:36,760 Speaker 1: And it passed its test and everything's good. But when 88 00:04:36,800 --> 00:04:40,880 Speaker 1: it does that, when it hollers out the window and 89 00:04:40,920 --> 00:04:45,159 Speaker 1: it doesn't hear a signal, it says, wait a minute, 90 00:04:45,279 --> 00:04:48,360 Speaker 1: there's a fault, and turns on the light, sets a code, 91 00:04:48,400 --> 00:04:51,120 Speaker 1: turns on the light. P zero three twenty five is 92 00:04:51,120 --> 00:04:53,480 Speaker 1: a different type of a fault in the sense that 93 00:04:53,839 --> 00:04:56,400 Speaker 1: it's a dynamic fault. It's not a static fault. And 94 00:04:56,400 --> 00:04:58,400 Speaker 1: that's really what I wanted to talk to you about today, 95 00:04:58,680 --> 00:05:01,240 Speaker 1: because we talk about this in other terms. We talk 96 00:05:01,279 --> 00:05:03,440 Speaker 1: about it in terms of circuit testing. Is it a 97 00:05:03,480 --> 00:05:06,480 Speaker 1: performance fault or a circuit fault. Well, here's a classic 98 00:05:06,560 --> 00:05:11,400 Speaker 1: example of a performance fault. All right, Just to prove 99 00:05:11,480 --> 00:05:14,440 Speaker 1: the point. In the course of this diagnosis, I cleared 100 00:05:14,480 --> 00:05:17,240 Speaker 1: the code and I sat and I let the engine 101 00:05:17,279 --> 00:05:20,120 Speaker 1: run in the bay, and I power braked it a 102 00:05:20,120 --> 00:05:22,160 Speaker 1: little bit, and I just let it run and run 103 00:05:22,200 --> 00:05:24,520 Speaker 1: and run for about fifteen twenty minutes. I went down 104 00:05:24,560 --> 00:05:26,600 Speaker 1: and I wiggled wiring harness. Just wanted to see if 105 00:05:26,600 --> 00:05:28,480 Speaker 1: wiring harness would change anything, which it wouldn't, and I 106 00:05:28,520 --> 00:05:30,200 Speaker 1: knew it wouldn't. I just wanted to prove my point. 107 00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:33,839 Speaker 1: Didn't set a full code, Danny, I'm going out on 108 00:05:33,839 --> 00:05:36,320 Speaker 1: the road, went down to the end of the driveway 109 00:05:36,360 --> 00:05:38,640 Speaker 1: of the shop, made a right, went up West Prospect Street, 110 00:05:38,680 --> 00:05:41,599 Speaker 1: went to the corner for and further up West Prospect Street, 111 00:05:41,600 --> 00:05:43,800 Speaker 1: went around the turn by the pond, and before I 112 00:05:43,839 --> 00:05:45,960 Speaker 1: got more than three quarters of a mile from the 113 00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:49,200 Speaker 1: shop altogether banged. The light came on, it ran its test, 114 00:05:49,279 --> 00:05:52,040 Speaker 1: it hollered out the window, got back to the shop. 115 00:05:52,120 --> 00:05:55,200 Speaker 1: YEP P zero three twenty five. It's a dynamic test. 116 00:05:56,200 --> 00:05:59,800 Speaker 1: Now you can use that as part of your diagnosis. 117 00:05:59,800 --> 00:06:02,040 Speaker 1: And that's the other point I wanted to make today. 118 00:06:03,040 --> 00:06:07,159 Speaker 1: I knew that I couldn't trust and use a scan 119 00:06:07,320 --> 00:06:10,880 Speaker 1: tool for any valuable information other than am I getting 120 00:06:10,880 --> 00:06:13,560 Speaker 1: a signal or not? Now, truth be told. When I 121 00:06:13,600 --> 00:06:16,800 Speaker 1: looked at knock sensor signal by scan, it showed me 122 00:06:16,880 --> 00:06:20,159 Speaker 1: voltage blips. But I don't want to trust that. I 123 00:06:20,160 --> 00:06:23,120 Speaker 1: don't know what those voltage blips mean for that particular car. 124 00:06:23,160 --> 00:06:25,280 Speaker 1: And unless somebody's going to write a book, because every 125 00:06:25,279 --> 00:06:27,640 Speaker 1: car is going to be different, I don't want to 126 00:06:27,680 --> 00:06:30,800 Speaker 1: do that. Was I seeing the command that the PCM 127 00:06:30,880 --> 00:06:33,760 Speaker 1: was sending out. Was I seeing a substituted command, Because 128 00:06:33,800 --> 00:06:36,320 Speaker 1: a lot of times a modern vehicle. And when I 129 00:06:36,320 --> 00:06:39,080 Speaker 1: say modern, something made in the last twenty years. So 130 00:06:39,120 --> 00:06:41,640 Speaker 1: think about that going back through two thousand and four, 131 00:06:41,680 --> 00:06:44,600 Speaker 1: and actually Ford had this going back into the early nineties. 132 00:06:44,839 --> 00:06:48,520 Speaker 1: Substitute values. They will substitute values to the point that 133 00:06:48,560 --> 00:06:51,520 Speaker 1: they will display those substituted values on a scan tool 134 00:06:51,560 --> 00:06:54,159 Speaker 1: and you'll never know the difference, and you can fall 135 00:06:54,160 --> 00:06:58,279 Speaker 1: into the trap if you're not careful. So, knowing that 136 00:06:58,360 --> 00:07:01,400 Speaker 1: I couldn't really trust scan tool on the basis of 137 00:07:01,520 --> 00:07:05,000 Speaker 1: dynamic on the basis that it's set the fault, I 138 00:07:05,040 --> 00:07:08,080 Speaker 1: took out a borscope. A borscope is an electronic device, 139 00:07:08,200 --> 00:07:11,920 Speaker 1: just like plumbers and carpenters use, like doctors might use, 140 00:07:11,960 --> 00:07:14,720 Speaker 1: like a dentist might use. And I stuffed it down 141 00:07:14,800 --> 00:07:17,120 Speaker 1: under the intake manifold, and I saw what I expected 142 00:07:17,160 --> 00:07:20,680 Speaker 1: to see, an animal nest. You see, that's the thing 143 00:07:20,680 --> 00:07:23,400 Speaker 1: about knock sensors. Knock sensors on an engine that's nock 144 00:07:23,440 --> 00:07:26,120 Speaker 1: sensor equipped, the majority of them seem to be under 145 00:07:26,160 --> 00:07:28,720 Speaker 1: intake plants. I've seen GM put a few knock sensors 146 00:07:28,760 --> 00:07:31,000 Speaker 1: on the outside of the engine block, but for the 147 00:07:31,040 --> 00:07:34,160 Speaker 1: majority of them, they're underneath the intake menifold. They're down 148 00:07:34,160 --> 00:07:38,880 Speaker 1: in a very nice suitable location where animals, where critters, gritters, 149 00:07:38,880 --> 00:07:41,640 Speaker 1: and cars, where they like to crawl and get underneath 150 00:07:41,720 --> 00:07:45,720 Speaker 1: and hang out. And just when you think that's just 151 00:07:45,880 --> 00:07:49,320 Speaker 1: not bad enough, the critter looks up and it goes, oh, 152 00:07:49,360 --> 00:07:51,720 Speaker 1: look at the wiring harness. Wow, I really like chewing 153 00:07:51,800 --> 00:07:54,280 Speaker 1: on that. So it's like perfect for them. It's a 154 00:07:54,320 --> 00:07:58,240 Speaker 1: dry shelter. They've got a snack, right, They're able to 155 00:07:58,280 --> 00:08:01,720 Speaker 1: do what they need to do and achieve it, and 156 00:08:01,760 --> 00:08:05,400 Speaker 1: it's great for them and it makes them happy. And 157 00:08:05,440 --> 00:08:07,560 Speaker 1: that's just what this animal did. It chewed up the 158 00:08:07,560 --> 00:08:10,840 Speaker 1: wiring harness. It built a nice little nest. It actually 159 00:08:10,880 --> 00:08:13,880 Speaker 1: broke the knock sensor. It knocked the knock sensor over. 160 00:08:14,200 --> 00:08:16,240 Speaker 1: It knocked the knock sensor over, It broke it right 161 00:08:16,240 --> 00:08:17,960 Speaker 1: off its base. Yeah that's the way I said it 162 00:08:18,840 --> 00:08:21,600 Speaker 1: sure enough, pulled the intake off, pulled the planum off, 163 00:08:21,640 --> 00:08:25,360 Speaker 1: pulled the lower intake off, and there it was no animal, 164 00:08:25,520 --> 00:08:28,440 Speaker 1: thank god. But the nest was huge enough that you 165 00:08:28,480 --> 00:08:30,320 Speaker 1: wondered what was in it, and then again you didn't 166 00:08:30,320 --> 00:08:35,360 Speaker 1: care because it wasn't there anymore. So replaced the knock sensor. 167 00:08:35,840 --> 00:08:38,040 Speaker 1: Honda has a piece called the sub harness connector. We 168 00:08:38,160 --> 00:08:40,640 Speaker 1: changed the sub harness connector the knock sensor. There were 169 00:08:40,679 --> 00:08:42,960 Speaker 1: some tears and shoes and other little places in the 170 00:08:42,960 --> 00:08:45,200 Speaker 1: wiring harness because I guess it wasn't hungry just eating 171 00:08:45,240 --> 00:08:46,800 Speaker 1: what was in front of it. It wanted a little 172 00:08:46,800 --> 00:08:49,400 Speaker 1: bit more. So we you know, we kind of picked 173 00:08:49,400 --> 00:08:51,839 Speaker 1: that up too, and lo and behold, put it all 174 00:08:51,880 --> 00:08:54,360 Speaker 1: back together and it was fixed. And the point of 175 00:08:54,400 --> 00:08:59,240 Speaker 1: all this really becomes that, you know, it's it's critters 176 00:08:59,240 --> 00:09:03,080 Speaker 1: and cars dynamic versus static, and you can use that. 177 00:09:03,640 --> 00:09:06,880 Speaker 1: You know, if you think about what you're trying to achieve, 178 00:09:07,160 --> 00:09:10,280 Speaker 1: how does it work, what was the engineer's objective, what 179 00:09:10,320 --> 00:09:12,160 Speaker 1: were they thinking when they designed the part, and how 180 00:09:12,160 --> 00:09:14,920 Speaker 1: would they test it when it failed? You can figure 181 00:09:14,960 --> 00:09:17,000 Speaker 1: a lot of things out without having to do any 182 00:09:17,280 --> 00:09:22,600 Speaker 1: additional reference information or you know, pulling your hair out. 183 00:09:22,840 --> 00:09:25,160 Speaker 1: It's good to take a step back. It's good to 184 00:09:25,920 --> 00:09:29,920 Speaker 1: understand how this circuit or the component works in order 185 00:09:29,960 --> 00:09:32,040 Speaker 1: to properly repair it. And that's just what we went 186 00:09:32,040 --> 00:09:34,600 Speaker 1: through with this Honda and down the road and gone. 187 00:09:34,679 --> 00:09:36,959 Speaker 1: It just worked out. So I just thought you'd like 188 00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:40,000 Speaker 1: to know that, and then of course, obviously something we've 189 00:09:40,040 --> 00:09:42,320 Speaker 1: been doing for the last couple of years to prevent 190 00:09:42,320 --> 00:09:44,280 Speaker 1: the reoccurrence, because then everybody says, hey, how do you 191 00:09:44,360 --> 00:09:47,880 Speaker 1: keep it from happening? Anhou and New Hampshire oil undercoating. 192 00:09:48,080 --> 00:09:50,679 Speaker 1: Use a little mouse out oil spray and coat the 193 00:09:50,679 --> 00:09:53,160 Speaker 1: bottom valley and it's going to last. It won't last forever, 194 00:09:53,160 --> 00:09:55,319 Speaker 1: it'll last a couple of My guess is it'll last 195 00:09:55,360 --> 00:09:57,040 Speaker 1: a couple of two three years because it's got some 196 00:09:57,040 --> 00:10:00,280 Speaker 1: good cling factor to it. But you know, NHOU oil 197 00:10:00,320 --> 00:10:03,360 Speaker 1: with mouse out, with that deterrent, we'll keep that those 198 00:10:03,400 --> 00:10:06,640 Speaker 1: animals out of there because fortunately under the intake manifold, 199 00:10:06,640 --> 00:10:08,360 Speaker 1: there's not a lot of liquid like it would be 200 00:10:08,400 --> 00:10:10,040 Speaker 1: on the chassis the car. It's not going to get 201 00:10:10,080 --> 00:10:12,319 Speaker 1: washed out over time. It's going to hang around for 202 00:10:12,320 --> 00:10:13,560 Speaker 1: a good long time. As a matter of fact, we've 203 00:10:13,559 --> 00:10:17,160 Speaker 1: been doing NHOU oil under intake plans like that for 204 00:10:17,200 --> 00:10:19,760 Speaker 1: a while now. Probably the better part of I'm going 205 00:10:19,800 --> 00:10:21,960 Speaker 1: to say three years, and some of those cars are 206 00:10:21,960 --> 00:10:23,800 Speaker 1: starting to come back for other things. And I always 207 00:10:23,840 --> 00:10:25,440 Speaker 1: tend to look and I can see how it's shiny 208 00:10:25,440 --> 00:10:28,880 Speaker 1: and wet down there. So without atmosphere against it. The 209 00:10:29,000 --> 00:10:31,880 Speaker 1: oil lasts a good long time. Anyway, I'm roninany in 210 00:10:31,920 --> 00:10:33,760 Speaker 1: the car doctor. The phone number here is eight five 211 00:10:33,840 --> 00:10:36,040 Speaker 1: five five six oh nine nine zero zero. I'll be 212 00:10:36,120 --> 00:10:38,000 Speaker 1: back right after this to kick the phones wide open. 213 00:10:38,000 --> 00:10:48,439 Speaker 6: Don't go away. 214 00:10:48,640 --> 00:10:50,760 Speaker 7: What's more fun than listening to Ron and Nannie in 215 00:10:50,800 --> 00:10:53,280 Speaker 7: the car doctor and getting that car fixed? Right? Eight 216 00:10:53,360 --> 00:10:56,160 Speaker 7: five to five five six zero nine nine zero zero. 217 00:10:56,280 --> 00:10:59,480 Speaker 7: Give Ron a call now back to Ron. Hey, let's 218 00:10:59,480 --> 00:10:59,880 Speaker 7: get over. 219 00:10:59,800 --> 00:11:02,559 Speaker 1: To Virginia and talk to David. Welcome to the car Doctor, sir, 220 00:11:02,600 --> 00:11:03,760 Speaker 1: How can I help? 221 00:11:05,679 --> 00:11:09,040 Speaker 2: I have a two thousand and four Dodge twenty five 222 00:11:09,200 --> 00:11:14,280 Speaker 2: hundred series, a full cab, eight foot bed, four wheel 223 00:11:14,360 --> 00:11:20,440 Speaker 2: drive automatic transformssion HEMI engine. It's performed perfect up until 224 00:11:21,800 --> 00:11:27,160 Speaker 2: not long ago. I put in four wheel drive to 225 00:11:27,320 --> 00:11:32,960 Speaker 2: drive over some of our property and I went to 226 00:11:33,000 --> 00:11:37,240 Speaker 2: make a turn where conversation, it is just like turning 227 00:11:37,880 --> 00:11:42,000 Speaker 2: right or left on a street from going into town. 228 00:11:42,840 --> 00:11:45,360 Speaker 2: And when I made about half of a turn, the 229 00:11:45,440 --> 00:11:49,800 Speaker 2: steering wheel wanted to control herself and it just turned 230 00:11:49,840 --> 00:11:53,880 Speaker 2: its tight to the right, and it s felt like 231 00:11:54,040 --> 00:11:58,200 Speaker 2: the truck was raising up when I had in four 232 00:11:58,200 --> 00:12:02,600 Speaker 2: wheel drive because it was some black ice, and four 233 00:12:02,600 --> 00:12:07,640 Speaker 2: wheel drive will prevent you from going so far usually, 234 00:12:08,520 --> 00:12:12,680 Speaker 2: but I've tried to the left. It does the same thing. 235 00:12:13,240 --> 00:12:15,960 Speaker 2: It didn't give us no warning. I've taken it to 236 00:12:16,080 --> 00:12:25,400 Speaker 2: three dealerships and one tar alignment company that's been in 237 00:12:25,440 --> 00:12:29,719 Speaker 2: business probably sixty years or close to it, and none 238 00:12:29,720 --> 00:12:32,080 Speaker 2: of them can figure out what it is, and all 239 00:12:32,080 --> 00:12:36,600 Speaker 2: of them says normal. And also the tar shop there's 240 00:12:36,640 --> 00:12:40,520 Speaker 2: two people with that owns Dodge pickups I think are 241 00:12:40,600 --> 00:12:43,280 Speaker 2: different years, but I wrote in both of them and 242 00:12:43,320 --> 00:12:45,760 Speaker 2: they're doing the same thing and they say it's normal. 243 00:12:45,800 --> 00:12:46,680 Speaker 2: It's not normal. 244 00:12:47,760 --> 00:12:49,400 Speaker 1: So let me get this right. 245 00:12:49,440 --> 00:12:51,959 Speaker 2: It will actually take this steering wheel at your hand. 246 00:12:52,320 --> 00:12:54,920 Speaker 1: It's it's only when you're it's only it's only when 247 00:12:54,960 --> 00:12:59,600 Speaker 1: you're in four wheel drive. David, Yes, sir, okay, you 248 00:12:59,640 --> 00:13:01,320 Speaker 1: put it in two wheel drive. The truck has no 249 00:13:01,400 --> 00:13:07,240 Speaker 1: problem at all. Nice, all right, So just cover the 250 00:13:07,559 --> 00:13:10,080 Speaker 1: just to cover the basics. Any recent tire work. The 251 00:13:10,120 --> 00:13:12,520 Speaker 1: tires are you know, same tires that were on there 252 00:13:12,600 --> 00:13:16,400 Speaker 1: prior to the problem. Nothing's changed, No lifted tires, no 253 00:13:16,440 --> 00:13:25,520 Speaker 1: different tires, correct tire size on the truck. David, David, 254 00:13:25,520 --> 00:13:30,600 Speaker 1: are you there? Did we lose David. Think we lost David? 255 00:13:31,120 --> 00:13:33,680 Speaker 1: What happened? Have you went out side to check on 256 00:13:33,679 --> 00:13:36,960 Speaker 1: the tires? All right, let's let's do this while Tom's 257 00:13:36,960 --> 00:13:39,040 Speaker 1: trying to get David back. Did you see the articles? 258 00:13:39,040 --> 00:13:40,880 Speaker 1: I wanted to talk about this too. Did you see 259 00:13:40,880 --> 00:13:43,959 Speaker 1: the article? You know? Sometimes sometimes research Kathy just finds 260 00:13:43,960 --> 00:13:46,920 Speaker 1: the worst things. She found an article this week from 261 00:13:46,920 --> 00:13:49,880 Speaker 1: TheStreet dot com that are we ready for five dollars 262 00:13:49,880 --> 00:13:53,120 Speaker 1: a gallon gasoline? Twenty gains and crude oil prices this 263 00:13:53,200 --> 00:13:55,560 Speaker 1: year may not slow down until fall. The article starts out, 264 00:13:55,559 --> 00:13:59,520 Speaker 1: written by Charlie Blaine for the Street for summertime, AH summertime. 265 00:13:59,520 --> 00:14:00,920 Speaker 1: The articles says, the sun will be out and the 266 00:14:01,000 --> 00:14:02,880 Speaker 1: days will be warm and long. Be ready. There's a 267 00:14:02,920 --> 00:14:04,720 Speaker 1: chance you're gonna be looking at paying more than now 268 00:14:04,720 --> 00:14:07,080 Speaker 1: to fill up at a gas station. Don't be surprised 269 00:14:07,160 --> 00:14:09,720 Speaker 1: to see five dollars a gallon or gas or more 270 00:14:09,720 --> 00:14:11,840 Speaker 1: at the pumps. If you're not paying that much already, 271 00:14:11,880 --> 00:14:15,120 Speaker 1: what is everybody paying for gasoline? I just and then 272 00:14:15,160 --> 00:14:17,280 Speaker 1: he goes on to I just I think about this. 273 00:14:17,559 --> 00:14:20,640 Speaker 1: Oil prices are the big driver West Texas Intermediate, the benchmark, 274 00:14:20,720 --> 00:14:23,640 Speaker 1: US crewed closed in on eighty seven dollars a barrel 275 00:14:23,720 --> 00:14:27,480 Speaker 1: a week ago, Brent the global benchmark settled above ninety 276 00:14:27,480 --> 00:14:30,360 Speaker 1: one dollars a barrel. Those are gains of twenty one 277 00:14:30,360 --> 00:14:33,160 Speaker 1: point three and eighteen points twenty percent a piece of 278 00:14:33,160 --> 00:14:36,000 Speaker 1: the oil. Gains are products of the fire and four forces. 279 00:14:36,160 --> 00:14:40,320 Speaker 1: Following four forces say that three times fast. Middle East tensions, 280 00:14:40,360 --> 00:14:43,600 Speaker 1: global supply disruptions, OPEC and friends everyoneting, higher prices and 281 00:14:43,640 --> 00:14:46,000 Speaker 1: more demand for gasoline are the products. Yeah, that's true. 282 00:14:46,080 --> 00:14:48,440 Speaker 1: I see that. You know it's but I just make 283 00:14:48,480 --> 00:14:49,000 Speaker 1: you aware of it. 284 00:14:49,040 --> 00:14:49,400 Speaker 2: Are you? 285 00:14:50,040 --> 00:14:52,160 Speaker 1: Are you aware of it? Are you ready for this? 286 00:14:52,600 --> 00:14:56,200 Speaker 1: In terms of you know, five dollars a gallon gasoline? 287 00:14:56,280 --> 00:14:57,880 Speaker 1: Let's say I understand David's back. 288 00:14:57,960 --> 00:14:58,200 Speaker 5: David. 289 00:14:58,200 --> 00:15:02,680 Speaker 1: Are you there, sir? Yes, I am okay, yeah, now 290 00:15:02,680 --> 00:15:04,680 Speaker 1: we can hear you. There you go, So, you know, 291 00:15:04,680 --> 00:15:06,800 Speaker 1: I just want to cover the basics. Tires, tires are 292 00:15:06,800 --> 00:15:10,160 Speaker 1: all the correct size, nothing's changed. 293 00:15:10,120 --> 00:15:12,880 Speaker 2: Yes, sir, all right, and same as a manufacturer. 294 00:15:13,760 --> 00:15:19,360 Speaker 1: Right. So has anybody anybody ever do anybody ever do David, 295 00:15:19,360 --> 00:15:22,320 Speaker 1: anybody ever do any drive line fluid service to this truck? 296 00:15:24,480 --> 00:15:27,720 Speaker 2: Yes, sir, how recently it's all perfect? 297 00:15:27,960 --> 00:15:30,480 Speaker 1: No, no, That's not what I'm asking. How long ago 298 00:15:30,520 --> 00:15:32,200 Speaker 1: did they do it? Did they do it before the 299 00:15:32,240 --> 00:15:40,880 Speaker 1: problem or after the problem? Well, they did it before, okay, okay, 300 00:15:41,240 --> 00:15:44,040 Speaker 1: So how long after they did it did the problem start? 301 00:15:46,920 --> 00:15:51,880 Speaker 2: Oh it's been probably three months leaks. 302 00:15:52,760 --> 00:15:56,320 Speaker 1: Not talking about leaks. You're you're jumping ahead. So it 303 00:15:56,360 --> 00:16:00,920 Speaker 1: was after driveline fluid service, just to cover the base, Yes, sir, 304 00:16:01,080 --> 00:16:02,920 Speaker 1: I want to be sure that all the fluids they 305 00:16:03,000 --> 00:16:05,280 Speaker 1: change were correct, because when I talk about drive line 306 00:16:05,320 --> 00:16:09,000 Speaker 1: fluid service, I'm talking about obviously the front and rear axle, 307 00:16:09,800 --> 00:16:12,760 Speaker 1: the transfer case, and the transmission. I don't think this 308 00:16:12,840 --> 00:16:16,600 Speaker 1: is an automatic transmission problem. I'm thinking more in terms 309 00:16:16,640 --> 00:16:20,280 Speaker 1: of either the transfer case or if if the rear 310 00:16:20,440 --> 00:16:25,800 Speaker 1: axle is a posey did they did they put a 311 00:16:25,840 --> 00:16:27,680 Speaker 1: posey additive in the rear end? 312 00:16:30,600 --> 00:16:31,360 Speaker 2: I don't think so. 313 00:16:31,760 --> 00:16:35,960 Speaker 1: Okay, But is it a posy traction rear? Right? Is there? 314 00:16:36,120 --> 00:16:38,280 Speaker 1: Is it a posey traction rear? Just because they didn't 315 00:16:38,280 --> 00:16:40,480 Speaker 1: do it doesn't mean it doesn't need it. Did they 316 00:16:40,560 --> 00:16:42,800 Speaker 1: miss a step? I'm not picking on anybody. I'm not 317 00:16:42,840 --> 00:16:45,880 Speaker 1: saying anybody did anything intentionally or did something wrong. I'm 318 00:16:45,920 --> 00:16:50,400 Speaker 1: just trying to unwind the problem. 319 00:16:49,040 --> 00:16:52,680 Speaker 2: Right, Okay, I understand. 320 00:16:53,320 --> 00:16:57,920 Speaker 1: Ah, you know that's go ahead. 321 00:16:57,920 --> 00:16:59,160 Speaker 2: I didn't mention anything. 322 00:16:59,280 --> 00:17:02,480 Speaker 1: And David, if they don't if they don't know that 323 00:17:02,480 --> 00:17:04,359 Speaker 1: it's supposed to take, if they don't know it's a posey, 324 00:17:04,440 --> 00:17:07,000 Speaker 1: or if somebody's not thinking, if the service writer isn't 325 00:17:07,040 --> 00:17:10,080 Speaker 1: aware when he writes the bill at the dealership that 326 00:17:10,160 --> 00:17:14,000 Speaker 1: the vehicle's a PUSI traction for some reason. Okay, listen, 327 00:17:14,000 --> 00:17:16,760 Speaker 1: if everybody did everything perfect, your truck wouldn't be broken, right, 328 00:17:18,760 --> 00:17:21,760 Speaker 1: all things considered, right, So we've got to start to 329 00:17:21,800 --> 00:17:24,840 Speaker 1: think outside the box. We've got a broken vehicle. Vehicle's broken. 330 00:17:24,920 --> 00:17:28,080 Speaker 1: Why is it broken? What steps weren't taken or were 331 00:17:28,119 --> 00:17:30,960 Speaker 1: taken improperly? Is the first question I've got, because it's 332 00:17:30,960 --> 00:17:35,040 Speaker 1: either somebody did something wrongdoing us during a service, or 333 00:17:35,200 --> 00:17:38,119 Speaker 1: something in the truck is broken. The only way I 334 00:17:38,160 --> 00:17:41,520 Speaker 1: can determine if something in the truck is broken is 335 00:17:41,560 --> 00:17:46,200 Speaker 1: to find out that they service it correctly. Right, So 336 00:17:46,480 --> 00:17:49,240 Speaker 1: it's a simple case. It's a simple case of go 337 00:17:49,359 --> 00:17:52,400 Speaker 1: back to the dealer that service the drive line and 338 00:17:52,680 --> 00:17:54,919 Speaker 1: they can run the serial number of the vehicle. They 339 00:17:54,960 --> 00:17:57,520 Speaker 1: can run the vin Usually it's the last day digits, 340 00:17:57,680 --> 00:17:59,480 Speaker 1: and that will tell them whether or not that vehicle 341 00:17:59,520 --> 00:18:02,000 Speaker 1: is equipment a pose traction. If it's equipped with a 342 00:18:02,040 --> 00:18:05,240 Speaker 1: posy traction, that vehicle needs a posey additive in the rear. 343 00:18:05,520 --> 00:18:07,960 Speaker 1: If it doesn't, then I'm willing to bet this has 344 00:18:08,000 --> 00:18:10,320 Speaker 1: a problem in the transfer case and the transfer case 345 00:18:10,400 --> 00:18:12,719 Speaker 1: is starting to bind. You know, maybe they could take 346 00:18:12,720 --> 00:18:15,080 Speaker 1: a fluid sample from the transfer case. What does that 347 00:18:15,119 --> 00:18:18,040 Speaker 1: look like? Call me back after you find out those things, David, 348 00:18:18,040 --> 00:18:19,920 Speaker 1: I'm here for you. I'm ronning any and the car doctor. 349 00:18:19,960 --> 00:18:43,159 Speaker 1: I'll return right after this. Who's gone and got welcome 350 00:18:43,200 --> 00:18:46,359 Speaker 1: back running the car Doctor. Tom posted up and told 351 00:18:46,359 --> 00:18:48,840 Speaker 1: me that he did a quick look. Guess is now 352 00:18:48,840 --> 00:18:52,440 Speaker 1: over six dollars a gallon in California. So I guess 353 00:18:52,480 --> 00:18:54,120 Speaker 1: that article was written with the intention for the rest 354 00:18:54,119 --> 00:18:57,080 Speaker 1: of the country and just to say that, Yeah, it's 355 00:18:57,400 --> 00:18:59,040 Speaker 1: I think we're gonna see price of gas go up again. 356 00:18:59,080 --> 00:19:02,080 Speaker 1: So just be aware. You know, whether it's real or not, 357 00:19:02,200 --> 00:19:05,639 Speaker 1: it's everything's tied to everything, and everything's affecting everything, it seems, 358 00:19:05,960 --> 00:19:08,359 Speaker 1: so just be aware. Let's oh, I just want to 359 00:19:08,359 --> 00:19:10,959 Speaker 1: comment real quick on David and his drive line fluids 360 00:19:11,000 --> 00:19:13,879 Speaker 1: listen when you're looking for a problem. You know, if 361 00:19:13,920 --> 00:19:16,440 Speaker 1: you knew the answer, you wouldn't need to think about it, right, 362 00:19:16,440 --> 00:19:18,080 Speaker 1: If you knew the answer, it would be fixed. You 363 00:19:18,160 --> 00:19:20,600 Speaker 1: got to start to think back and go through things 364 00:19:20,600 --> 00:19:24,400 Speaker 1: on a logistical sequence. You know, the fact that it's 365 00:19:24,440 --> 00:19:26,960 Speaker 1: only in four wheel drive tells me it's something's binding 366 00:19:27,000 --> 00:19:29,600 Speaker 1: in the drive line. The fact that it's only in 367 00:19:29,640 --> 00:19:32,879 Speaker 1: four wheel drive tells me it's not the steering intermediate shift, 368 00:19:32,880 --> 00:19:35,880 Speaker 1: which I thought of also, But it's only in four 369 00:19:35,880 --> 00:19:39,440 Speaker 1: wheel drive, all right? Does he have different tire sizes 370 00:19:39,480 --> 00:19:42,480 Speaker 1: on it? Did he change tire sizes since the problem started? 371 00:19:42,920 --> 00:19:44,560 Speaker 1: Is there enough air in all the tires or the 372 00:19:44,600 --> 00:19:48,520 Speaker 1: tires weren't equally? Four wheel drive on dry road will 373 00:19:48,560 --> 00:19:53,320 Speaker 1: bind unless it's all wheel drive. So from David's description 374 00:19:53,400 --> 00:19:55,800 Speaker 1: when he said his property, I'm assuming he's on a 375 00:19:55,800 --> 00:19:59,240 Speaker 1: dirt road and not on a paved road. And I 376 00:19:59,280 --> 00:20:01,000 Speaker 1: don't know why you would put before we'll drive on 377 00:20:01,000 --> 00:20:03,280 Speaker 1: on a paved road anyway. So you know, we're trying 378 00:20:03,280 --> 00:20:06,320 Speaker 1: to break this down. Where's the fault If it's not fluids, 379 00:20:06,520 --> 00:20:10,320 Speaker 1: If it's not a chattering rear axle or incorrect fluids 380 00:20:10,320 --> 00:20:13,480 Speaker 1: in either transfer case or one of the other drive 381 00:20:13,560 --> 00:20:17,880 Speaker 1: line components. He's probably got a bad transfer case. But 382 00:20:18,080 --> 00:20:19,960 Speaker 1: until you break it down and start to take it 383 00:20:20,000 --> 00:20:22,840 Speaker 1: apart mentally in your head and then physically on the 384 00:20:22,840 --> 00:20:25,639 Speaker 1: bench and start to examine, you won't get to the answer. 385 00:20:25,720 --> 00:20:28,639 Speaker 1: So don't assume anybody did anything right, don't assume they 386 00:20:28,680 --> 00:20:31,199 Speaker 1: did anything wrong. Just verify what they did. Let's go 387 00:20:31,240 --> 00:20:34,040 Speaker 1: over to Robert in Virginia four f one fifty Robert, 388 00:20:34,040 --> 00:20:35,680 Speaker 1: Welcome to the car doctor, sir, how can I help? 389 00:20:36,640 --> 00:20:36,840 Speaker 2: Hey? 390 00:20:37,760 --> 00:20:44,560 Speaker 4: Yeah, I've got rust coming through my rear fender walls 391 00:20:44,800 --> 00:20:47,040 Speaker 4: and I'm just was wondering is it easier just to 392 00:20:47,080 --> 00:20:48,760 Speaker 4: take it to a body shop and have them try 393 00:20:48,800 --> 00:20:51,959 Speaker 4: to fix it or just change that whole panic. 394 00:20:52,600 --> 00:20:55,159 Speaker 1: Well, I got to tell you first, you show me 395 00:20:55,200 --> 00:20:58,080 Speaker 1: a body shop that'll touch rust. And I'm not I'm not, 396 00:20:58,160 --> 00:21:00,080 Speaker 1: I'm not. I'm not picking on the body shops or 397 00:21:00,200 --> 00:21:02,399 Speaker 1: I have the greatest respect for body guys. I have 398 00:21:02,440 --> 00:21:04,639 Speaker 1: some very dear friends in the business that are body guys, 399 00:21:04,960 --> 00:21:07,040 Speaker 1: and I just I understand what I understand what they 400 00:21:07,040 --> 00:21:09,000 Speaker 1: say to me when they say, you know, Ron, the 401 00:21:09,119 --> 00:21:12,320 Speaker 1: rust you see is only the tip of the Iceberg. 402 00:21:12,800 --> 00:21:15,119 Speaker 1: They always, they always tell me, think of the Titanic, 403 00:21:15,160 --> 00:21:17,200 Speaker 1: it only saw what was above the water. You're only 404 00:21:17,240 --> 00:21:20,720 Speaker 1: seeing what's what's staring you in the face. For the 405 00:21:20,840 --> 00:21:23,879 Speaker 1: rust to be right there unless you get on it early. 406 00:21:24,119 --> 00:21:26,040 Speaker 1: But you know, this is an O four. This vehicle's 407 00:21:26,040 --> 00:21:29,440 Speaker 1: twenty going on twenty one years old. So what I 408 00:21:29,480 --> 00:21:32,760 Speaker 1: would actually consider doing before we got into doing a panel, 409 00:21:33,200 --> 00:21:35,080 Speaker 1: all right, because you know you're going to do all 410 00:21:35,080 --> 00:21:39,480 Speaker 1: the work to take the panel apart, right, and then 411 00:21:39,480 --> 00:21:42,760 Speaker 1: you're gonna find even more, all right, is I would 412 00:21:42,760 --> 00:21:45,560 Speaker 1: honestly try to locate a pickup bed for the truck 413 00:21:46,000 --> 00:21:51,680 Speaker 1: in a dry state Arizona, New Mexico, Southern California, Texas, right, 414 00:21:52,359 --> 00:21:55,919 Speaker 1: And the price you would pay for that bed and 415 00:21:56,040 --> 00:21:59,640 Speaker 1: shipping would most likely be cheaper than the work you're 416 00:21:59,640 --> 00:22:02,600 Speaker 1: gonna have to do to get that particular bed in shape. 417 00:22:03,400 --> 00:22:03,600 Speaker 3: You know. 418 00:22:03,760 --> 00:22:06,000 Speaker 1: One of the I'll never forget, Robbie, one of the 419 00:22:06,000 --> 00:22:09,280 Speaker 1: things I saw as a kid from my mentors and 420 00:22:09,320 --> 00:22:10,680 Speaker 1: the guys that would take you out and show you 421 00:22:10,720 --> 00:22:12,800 Speaker 1: how to go buy a used car. We'd go out 422 00:22:12,840 --> 00:22:14,359 Speaker 1: to buy a used car, and the first thing they 423 00:22:14,400 --> 00:22:16,359 Speaker 1: always did was they opened the trunk and they stuck 424 00:22:16,400 --> 00:22:19,760 Speaker 1: their hand all the way in underneath the panel shelf, 425 00:22:19,920 --> 00:22:22,080 Speaker 1: you know, the back shelf of the vehicle where the 426 00:22:22,240 --> 00:22:25,440 Speaker 1: back window sits against. And they would rub their hand 427 00:22:25,520 --> 00:22:26,800 Speaker 1: under the back shelf, and I go, what are you 428 00:22:26,840 --> 00:22:30,239 Speaker 1: doing checking for rust? You know, it's just just a 429 00:22:30,280 --> 00:22:32,880 Speaker 1: funny thing, right, It's just just and never I never 430 00:22:32,920 --> 00:22:35,399 Speaker 1: forgot that. And I said, why there, I said, the 431 00:22:35,480 --> 00:22:38,120 Speaker 1: rust is on the outside. They said, no, it starts 432 00:22:38,160 --> 00:22:40,040 Speaker 1: there and it works its way to the outside, or 433 00:22:40,119 --> 00:22:42,080 Speaker 1: sometimes the other way around. They said, but if it's 434 00:22:42,080 --> 00:22:44,359 Speaker 1: not here, we're not going to expect to see it there. 435 00:22:45,119 --> 00:22:48,640 Speaker 1: It's just just you know, rust is everywhere. It's it's 436 00:22:48,800 --> 00:22:50,800 Speaker 1: just like a disease no matter where you go, and 437 00:22:50,840 --> 00:22:53,399 Speaker 1: it's you got to get to it early enough, you know. 438 00:22:53,560 --> 00:22:56,200 Speaker 1: I went through this. I went through this on the suburban. 439 00:22:56,280 --> 00:22:59,399 Speaker 1: The suburban tailgate. My O four Suburban is actually in 440 00:22:59,480 --> 00:23:04,240 Speaker 1: aluminum gate, and it corroded around this the punch button 441 00:23:04,240 --> 00:23:07,399 Speaker 1: for the lock cylinder, and going back probably about four 442 00:23:07,440 --> 00:23:09,399 Speaker 1: or five years, it finally just started to lift the 443 00:23:09,400 --> 00:23:11,359 Speaker 1: paint and I had it all done and I got 444 00:23:11,400 --> 00:23:13,760 Speaker 1: to it early, and they told me the bodyshop guy said, 445 00:23:13,760 --> 00:23:15,560 Speaker 1: you know, listen, you lucked out because you had you 446 00:23:15,680 --> 00:23:17,639 Speaker 1: let this go on, you would have been putting a 447 00:23:17,640 --> 00:23:20,600 Speaker 1: tailgate on the truck. So yeah, you know. 448 00:23:20,640 --> 00:23:23,600 Speaker 4: Yeah, you know, so I think you're right. It's too 449 00:23:23,600 --> 00:23:26,760 Speaker 4: far gone. That's that's kind of what I was thinking. 450 00:23:26,840 --> 00:23:30,679 Speaker 1: But what color truck is it? It's like a brown, 451 00:23:31,080 --> 00:23:33,919 Speaker 1: the brown or whatever, and you might get lucky. They 452 00:23:33,960 --> 00:23:36,239 Speaker 1: probably made more than two or three of those, so 453 00:23:36,320 --> 00:23:38,560 Speaker 1: you might you might you might find a brown. You 454 00:23:38,640 --> 00:23:40,800 Speaker 1: might find you just might find a brown bed. That's 455 00:23:40,880 --> 00:23:43,879 Speaker 1: that's that's kind of weathered and looks right. And you 456 00:23:43,920 --> 00:23:45,439 Speaker 1: won't even have to paint it. You'll just have to 457 00:23:45,480 --> 00:23:47,879 Speaker 1: lift it up, drive it off. And that's an easy 458 00:23:47,920 --> 00:23:50,439 Speaker 1: you know what, that's a weekend swapping the driveway on, 459 00:23:50,560 --> 00:23:54,360 Speaker 1: bolt the bed, just a few bolts, disconnect the wires. 460 00:23:54,760 --> 00:23:57,520 Speaker 1: Look at how the gas tank filler neck is hooked up. Obviously, 461 00:23:57,560 --> 00:23:59,240 Speaker 1: make sure if you know, are you a dual tank 462 00:23:59,320 --> 00:24:00,200 Speaker 1: or a single tank. 463 00:24:01,000 --> 00:24:02,040 Speaker 4: Yeah? 464 00:24:01,840 --> 00:24:04,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, just make sure you match that, and then you 465 00:24:04,560 --> 00:24:07,439 Speaker 1: know you could even support that. Build yourself a two 466 00:24:07,480 --> 00:24:11,160 Speaker 1: by four frame jack the lift the bed up, drive 467 00:24:11,280 --> 00:24:14,040 Speaker 1: the truck out, drive the new bed underneath, so to speak. 468 00:24:14,080 --> 00:24:15,760 Speaker 1: Put it on a second frame next to the side 469 00:24:15,760 --> 00:24:18,720 Speaker 1: of it and you know that. Or it's a couple 470 00:24:18,720 --> 00:24:20,720 Speaker 1: of buddies and some pizza and beer on a Saturday 471 00:24:20,720 --> 00:24:23,080 Speaker 1: afternoon listening to the car doctor. Either way, you'll get 472 00:24:23,080 --> 00:24:24,000 Speaker 1: the objective acquired. 473 00:24:24,600 --> 00:24:26,880 Speaker 4: So I'll drive it into Uh, I'll drive it into 474 00:24:26,920 --> 00:24:28,480 Speaker 4: work and with the crane. 475 00:24:28,320 --> 00:24:28,679 Speaker 3: There you go. 476 00:24:28,800 --> 00:24:31,080 Speaker 1: Well, there you go, see the problem solved and you 477 00:24:31,119 --> 00:24:34,720 Speaker 1: get to use the crane. Send us a picture, David, 478 00:24:34,880 --> 00:24:37,040 Speaker 1: I'm sorry not David Roberts, send us a picture of that. 479 00:24:37,080 --> 00:24:38,960 Speaker 1: If you do that, that'd be good for the Facebook page. 480 00:24:39,000 --> 00:24:41,640 Speaker 1: All right, yeah, all right, all right, maybe be well, 481 00:24:41,880 --> 00:24:45,000 Speaker 1: you're very welcome, sir. Good luck to you. Yeah, listen, uh, 482 00:24:45,880 --> 00:24:48,440 Speaker 1: you know, there's a lot of ways to do it, 483 00:24:48,680 --> 00:24:50,879 Speaker 1: but when it comes to rust, rust is a hard 484 00:24:51,320 --> 00:24:53,800 Speaker 1: is a hard thing to get rid of. And that's 485 00:24:53,800 --> 00:24:55,239 Speaker 1: why you want to stay on top of it. That's 486 00:24:55,280 --> 00:24:58,040 Speaker 1: why you want to, you know, be aware. That's why listen. 487 00:24:58,280 --> 00:25:01,199 Speaker 1: I will on all my vehicles if I'm driving them 488 00:25:01,200 --> 00:25:03,600 Speaker 1: through a snowstorm, I'm weird like this. I'll be the 489 00:25:03,720 --> 00:25:05,760 Speaker 1: I'll be the dopey guy out there with a garden 490 00:25:05,760 --> 00:25:08,720 Speaker 1: hose spraying water underneath all the wheel wells the first 491 00:25:08,840 --> 00:25:10,840 Speaker 1: chance I get, so I wash off all the salt, 492 00:25:11,359 --> 00:25:14,880 Speaker 1: and it's just it's staggering the amount of chemical they 493 00:25:14,880 --> 00:25:17,680 Speaker 1: put on the road today. It's like there's a war 494 00:25:17,760 --> 00:25:21,040 Speaker 1: on ice and they just you know, no no expense 495 00:25:21,080 --> 00:25:23,680 Speaker 1: spared to because it all ends up on our vehicles 496 00:25:24,040 --> 00:25:26,840 Speaker 1: and then it just rots the vehicle and then you know, listen, 497 00:25:26,840 --> 00:25:29,280 Speaker 1: if you're from Maine, I'm not telling you guys anything now. 498 00:25:29,320 --> 00:25:32,760 Speaker 1: You guys know all this because you know it's it's 499 00:25:32,840 --> 00:25:34,760 Speaker 1: something that the state of Maine always sticks in my 500 00:25:34,800 --> 00:25:37,280 Speaker 1: mind because there they've got so many issues up there 501 00:25:37,320 --> 00:25:42,440 Speaker 1: with you know, salt and corrosion and chemicals. I still remember, God, 502 00:25:42,680 --> 00:25:46,199 Speaker 1: I bet it's five years now when the bridge outside 503 00:25:46,280 --> 00:25:51,040 Speaker 1: Bath Maine. Maybe it's longer. There was an article written 504 00:25:51,119 --> 00:25:54,800 Speaker 1: up that the bridge outside of Bath Maine actually corroded 505 00:25:54,880 --> 00:25:58,560 Speaker 1: off its foundation due to the amount of chemicals that 506 00:25:58,640 --> 00:26:00,760 Speaker 1: were being sprayed on the roadway is over time and 507 00:26:00,760 --> 00:26:02,440 Speaker 1: it just rotted the bridge and they had to close 508 00:26:02,480 --> 00:26:06,000 Speaker 1: the bridge down and rebuild it. So I'll never forget that. 509 00:26:06,119 --> 00:26:08,679 Speaker 1: Just just so think about that on your vehicles. And 510 00:26:08,680 --> 00:26:11,640 Speaker 1: that's why trucks likes Roberts, you know, wrought out. It's 511 00:26:11,920 --> 00:26:14,520 Speaker 1: all those chemicals washed. The underside of the truck just 512 00:26:14,560 --> 00:26:16,880 Speaker 1: as important as the top as well. Eight five five 513 00:26:16,960 --> 00:26:19,760 Speaker 1: five six zero nine nine zero zero Again eight five 514 00:26:19,920 --> 00:26:22,359 Speaker 1: five five six zero nine nine zero zero the Car 515 00:26:22,359 --> 00:26:24,119 Speaker 1: Doctor's twenty four to seven number, and it's live and 516 00:26:24,160 --> 00:26:26,320 Speaker 1: active now, so give us a call when we return. 517 00:26:26,359 --> 00:26:41,439 Speaker 1: I'll be back right, Welcome back running the Car Doctor here. 518 00:26:41,480 --> 00:26:43,720 Speaker 1: Eight five five five six zero nine nine zero zeros 519 00:26:43,720 --> 00:26:46,040 Speaker 1: the phone number, and by the way, thank you for 520 00:26:46,119 --> 00:26:49,560 Speaker 1: your kind words. Again. Classic Car Doctors doing well out there. 521 00:26:49,600 --> 00:26:53,680 Speaker 1: On the podcast page, we're posting old shows, ten year 522 00:26:53,760 --> 00:26:58,000 Speaker 1: older shows from you know, days gone by and talking 523 00:26:58,000 --> 00:27:01,800 Speaker 1: about you know, things that ten years ago in the 524 00:27:01,840 --> 00:27:04,480 Speaker 1: automotive field. And it's interesting, right. Somebody sent me a 525 00:27:04,520 --> 00:27:07,560 Speaker 1: note this week that I didn't expect this response, but 526 00:27:07,600 --> 00:27:10,480 Speaker 1: it brought tears to their eyes. She said. Then she 527 00:27:10,640 --> 00:27:13,399 Speaker 1: was hearing somebody talk about a car that their mom, 528 00:27:13,720 --> 00:27:17,520 Speaker 1: who's now passed, was driving, and the person was having 529 00:27:17,560 --> 00:27:19,240 Speaker 1: the same problems that the mom was having, and it 530 00:27:19,320 --> 00:27:24,320 Speaker 1: just made her relive, you know, her mom's concerns over 531 00:27:24,359 --> 00:27:25,879 Speaker 1: the car and you know, the whole experience that she 532 00:27:25,920 --> 00:27:28,000 Speaker 1: had with the mechanic at the time, and she wrote me, 533 00:27:28,040 --> 00:27:29,359 Speaker 1: you know, and she says, I wish we had found 534 00:27:29,400 --> 00:27:32,160 Speaker 1: you sooner, and Mom would have known the answer because 535 00:27:32,160 --> 00:27:34,080 Speaker 1: I heard you talking about her and giving the answer 536 00:27:34,359 --> 00:27:37,159 Speaker 1: at that time. So I didn't think I was and 537 00:27:37,200 --> 00:27:38,960 Speaker 1: I think I was having that kind of effect on people. 538 00:27:39,000 --> 00:27:42,080 Speaker 1: But then again, that's the day. Today is kind of like, 539 00:27:42,480 --> 00:27:44,760 Speaker 1: So let's get over and talk to Steve in Florida 540 00:27:45,000 --> 00:27:47,920 Speaker 1: seventeen Patriot and see what's going on here, Steve. Welcome 541 00:27:47,920 --> 00:27:49,240 Speaker 1: to the car, doctor, sir, how can I help? 542 00:27:50,640 --> 00:27:55,520 Speaker 5: Yes, Tom, God just keeps losing anti freeze. There's no 543 00:27:55,720 --> 00:27:59,919 Speaker 5: leap that's visible, there's no smoke coming out of the engine. Okay, 544 00:28:00,119 --> 00:28:03,440 Speaker 5: and it sits in the sun a lot, because this 545 00:28:03,520 --> 00:28:05,640 Speaker 5: is the second guy doesn't move around a lot. 546 00:28:05,880 --> 00:28:10,520 Speaker 1: Well, any freeze won't evaporate. It'll evaporate over a long 547 00:28:10,600 --> 00:28:14,399 Speaker 1: period of time, but not as not as readily as water. 548 00:28:14,720 --> 00:28:17,399 Speaker 1: How much coolant are you using and how fast a 549 00:28:17,400 --> 00:28:18,240 Speaker 1: period of time? 550 00:28:19,760 --> 00:28:24,360 Speaker 5: Oh, I just had the pull happen and that's probably 551 00:28:24,480 --> 00:28:25,560 Speaker 5: like over two months. 552 00:28:25,680 --> 00:28:30,480 Speaker 1: Okay, So you put two quarts in two months ago, okay, Yeah, 553 00:28:30,640 --> 00:28:34,080 Speaker 1: And if you don't operate the vehicle, does it still 554 00:28:34,119 --> 00:28:34,960 Speaker 1: seem to go away. 555 00:28:37,280 --> 00:28:40,720 Speaker 5: No, it's what it is is when I don't operate 556 00:28:40,760 --> 00:28:45,000 Speaker 5: the vehicle, that's that's when the any free sives to disappear. 557 00:28:45,480 --> 00:28:50,760 Speaker 1: Okay, then have you Yeah that is odd. So you're saying, 558 00:28:51,000 --> 00:28:54,680 Speaker 1: you're saying you don't drive this. You mark the coolant bottle, 559 00:28:55,080 --> 00:28:57,200 Speaker 1: put a little take a black magic marker, marck the 560 00:28:57,240 --> 00:29:00,320 Speaker 1: coolant overflow bottle, because our mind plays tricks on us. Right, 561 00:29:01,080 --> 00:29:03,560 Speaker 1: and you come back to that vehicle in a month, 562 00:29:04,120 --> 00:29:07,680 Speaker 1: and the level is going to be down a court down, 563 00:29:07,800 --> 00:29:11,480 Speaker 1: yeah at least. Okay, So here's what I want you 564 00:29:11,520 --> 00:29:14,800 Speaker 1: to do as a science project. All right, I want 565 00:29:14,840 --> 00:29:17,400 Speaker 1: you to mark the bottle. I want you to I 566 00:29:17,400 --> 00:29:19,240 Speaker 1: want you to write the date and a mark on 567 00:29:19,320 --> 00:29:22,320 Speaker 1: the bottle. All right, that's the day you checked it. 568 00:29:22,760 --> 00:29:24,360 Speaker 1: I want you to check it in a week. I 569 00:29:24,400 --> 00:29:25,920 Speaker 1: want you to check it in two weeks. I want 570 00:29:25,920 --> 00:29:27,560 Speaker 1: you to check it in three weeks. Is it a 571 00:29:27,600 --> 00:29:29,440 Speaker 1: gradual decline or is it all at once? 572 00:29:31,360 --> 00:29:33,600 Speaker 5: Oh yeah, okay, all right, just just. 573 00:29:33,600 --> 00:29:36,880 Speaker 1: To see where's it going. Number one. Number two. If 574 00:29:36,920 --> 00:29:41,200 Speaker 1: you find that it's losing it, and you know, unless 575 00:29:41,360 --> 00:29:44,800 Speaker 1: you've just got something really strange here, because anti freeze 576 00:29:45,280 --> 00:29:47,120 Speaker 1: doesn't evaporate. And if you want to, if you want 577 00:29:47,120 --> 00:29:50,200 Speaker 1: to try an experiment, take a gallon of anti freeze 578 00:29:50,800 --> 00:29:52,280 Speaker 1: and leave it under the hood. Leave it under the 579 00:29:52,320 --> 00:29:55,960 Speaker 1: hood of the truck. Right, just just take a full 580 00:29:56,000 --> 00:29:57,960 Speaker 1: gallon of anti freeze, put it under the hood of 581 00:29:57,960 --> 00:30:00,200 Speaker 1: the truck. Get yourself a gallon of anti freeze. Maybe 582 00:30:00,200 --> 00:30:01,800 Speaker 1: we're the side panel. You know, it's got a clear 583 00:30:01,840 --> 00:30:04,000 Speaker 1: side panel, so you can see how low it is 584 00:30:04,040 --> 00:30:08,880 Speaker 1: without opening the bottle. Right. And in theory, if it's evaporation, 585 00:30:09,120 --> 00:30:12,160 Speaker 1: then the bottle should lose it just like just like 586 00:30:12,200 --> 00:30:14,560 Speaker 1: the jug, right, you know, leave the cap on the juggle. 587 00:30:14,680 --> 00:30:17,040 Speaker 1: Leave the cap on the jug a little loose, just 588 00:30:17,080 --> 00:30:19,400 Speaker 1: so it can, you know, kind of emulate it, all right. 589 00:30:19,440 --> 00:30:22,320 Speaker 1: And if both of these prove false, then maybe we've 590 00:30:22,360 --> 00:30:25,040 Speaker 1: got maybe you've got a CP head gasket. It's it's 591 00:30:25,080 --> 00:30:27,440 Speaker 1: diluting a little coolant into the oil. Although you would 592 00:30:27,440 --> 00:30:30,640 Speaker 1: think the oil level would have come up by now, right, right, 593 00:30:30,880 --> 00:30:34,680 Speaker 1: that the engine oil would show contamination. Now, as an aside, 594 00:30:34,800 --> 00:30:37,440 Speaker 1: if we want to eliminate the engine as a possibility, 595 00:30:38,000 --> 00:30:41,000 Speaker 1: a bottle of case seal would do. Wonders here, all right, 596 00:30:41,680 --> 00:30:44,200 Speaker 1: Kcal is the best head gasket sealer out there. It's 597 00:30:44,200 --> 00:30:47,200 Speaker 1: not going to hurt anything. And as a preventative, this 598 00:30:47,280 --> 00:30:49,400 Speaker 1: is a this is an older vehicle. RW is only 599 00:30:49,920 --> 00:30:57,800 Speaker 1: seven years old, eight years old, higher mileage, higher mileage, Steve, Yeah, 600 00:30:57,840 --> 00:31:00,640 Speaker 1: it's you know, it's getting up there, two leader or 601 00:31:00,640 --> 00:31:07,400 Speaker 1: the two point four the two Okay, yeah, I would 602 00:31:07,440 --> 00:31:09,400 Speaker 1: I wouldn't. I wouldn't be afraid to put a bottle 603 00:31:09,400 --> 00:31:12,680 Speaker 1: of k Seal in it. And you know, make sure 604 00:31:12,760 --> 00:31:14,840 Speaker 1: if we're chasing, if we think we're chasing a head 605 00:31:14,880 --> 00:31:19,080 Speaker 1: gasket k Seal Ultimate, which has a third more ceiling 606 00:31:19,160 --> 00:31:22,120 Speaker 1: power against the head gasket fault. You can read about it. 607 00:31:22,160 --> 00:31:23,600 Speaker 1: Go out to k seal dot com. You bill to 608 00:31:23,600 --> 00:31:25,959 Speaker 1: read about it. But that's what I would try number one, 609 00:31:26,080 --> 00:31:28,840 Speaker 1: number two, And then you know number three. You're not 610 00:31:28,920 --> 00:31:31,400 Speaker 1: going to see any smoke out the tailpipe. You're not 611 00:31:31,400 --> 00:31:35,400 Speaker 1: going to see any external signs because the catalytic converter, 612 00:31:35,480 --> 00:31:38,400 Speaker 1: if it is burning it through the engine, will detect it. 613 00:31:38,440 --> 00:31:40,520 Speaker 1: And then last, you don't have a brother in law 614 00:31:40,560 --> 00:31:44,520 Speaker 1: playing a practical joke on you, do you. 615 00:31:44,560 --> 00:31:47,160 Speaker 5: Just just just checking right? 616 00:31:47,240 --> 00:31:49,400 Speaker 1: You know, I I ran into that a while ago, 617 00:31:49,520 --> 00:31:53,040 Speaker 1: so you know, just I always think about the possibilities, 618 00:31:53,080 --> 00:31:55,360 Speaker 1: all right, do those things call us back? We always 619 00:31:55,400 --> 00:31:56,880 Speaker 1: want to know, all right, Steven. 620 00:31:57,000 --> 00:32:01,360 Speaker 5: Yes, very good, Thank you. 621 00:32:00,120 --> 00:32:03,080 Speaker 1: Welcome, Thanks for calling in you too, sir, Hey bye bye, 622 00:32:03,160 --> 00:32:05,840 Speaker 1: eight five five, Well, it's possible. If I live next 623 00:32:05,840 --> 00:32:07,760 Speaker 1: door to Tom Ray, I would almost expect it, right 624 00:32:08,000 --> 00:32:10,680 Speaker 1: eight five five five six ninety nine hundred. I'm running 625 00:32:10,720 --> 00:32:12,560 Speaker 1: any in the guard doctor. I'll be back right after this. 626 00:32:24,480 --> 00:32:27,760 Speaker 1: Welcome back, running of the car doctor. I think there 627 00:32:27,760 --> 00:32:32,240 Speaker 1: are two tools that mechanics should be licensed to own 628 00:32:32,280 --> 00:32:35,000 Speaker 1: and use before they actually are allowed to. One of 629 00:32:35,040 --> 00:32:37,240 Speaker 1: them is a hammer and the other one's a screwdriver. 630 00:32:37,480 --> 00:32:39,120 Speaker 1: And I think if we took those away from them, 631 00:32:39,400 --> 00:32:42,000 Speaker 1: you know, from a few select individuals, you would see 632 00:32:42,040 --> 00:32:44,840 Speaker 1: a big improvement in the quality of auto repair. We 633 00:32:44,920 --> 00:32:48,280 Speaker 1: had a seventeen suburban in the shop this week and 634 00:32:48,480 --> 00:32:51,000 Speaker 1: it was simple. You know, sometimes auto repairs it's the 635 00:32:51,040 --> 00:32:54,160 Speaker 1: mistakes you make by by assuming, because I always say, 636 00:32:54,200 --> 00:32:56,920 Speaker 1: you get beat mentally in this business, not not physically, 637 00:32:56,960 --> 00:32:59,680 Speaker 1: all right, And it's the mental mistakes you make. And 638 00:32:59,680 --> 00:33:02,440 Speaker 1: we had a seventeen suburban that needed rear breaks. It 639 00:33:02,440 --> 00:33:04,560 Speaker 1: had come in for an oil change the week before 640 00:33:04,640 --> 00:33:06,440 Speaker 1: the customer couldn't leave it that day for breaks. We 641 00:33:06,480 --> 00:33:08,240 Speaker 1: couldn't get to it that day. We were too busy. 642 00:33:08,480 --> 00:33:10,360 Speaker 1: So it came back and it needed rear break, so 643 00:33:10,360 --> 00:33:12,000 Speaker 1: we were you know, scheduled it for rear breaks. We 644 00:33:12,000 --> 00:33:14,440 Speaker 1: did rear breaks and or we were trying to do 645 00:33:14,440 --> 00:33:15,920 Speaker 1: a rear break, so we you know, we got our 646 00:33:16,000 --> 00:33:18,800 Speaker 1: pads and rotors all right. You know, the boys at 647 00:33:18,800 --> 00:33:23,959 Speaker 1: AutoZone came through again and we went about doing our 648 00:33:24,000 --> 00:33:25,560 Speaker 1: rear breaks. But it was late in the day. It's 649 00:33:25,600 --> 00:33:27,240 Speaker 1: always late in the day. It's always you know, you 650 00:33:27,240 --> 00:33:29,280 Speaker 1: don't want to start anything big after two o'clock. And 651 00:33:29,280 --> 00:33:31,480 Speaker 1: I always make this mental mistake. I go, it's just 652 00:33:31,520 --> 00:33:34,200 Speaker 1: rear breaks on a seventeen suburban with with sixty thousand 653 00:33:34,240 --> 00:33:39,200 Speaker 1: miles on it, how bad could it pay? And right 654 00:33:39,240 --> 00:33:41,240 Speaker 1: we took the rear breaks apart and we got to 655 00:33:41,280 --> 00:33:45,200 Speaker 1: the right side and Danny says, hey, Ron, come over 656 00:33:45,200 --> 00:33:47,920 Speaker 1: here and look at this. And I walk over and 657 00:33:47,960 --> 00:33:52,320 Speaker 1: there were these two holes in the break piston, like 658 00:33:52,520 --> 00:33:56,960 Speaker 1: you could see where the pad something had jammed itself 659 00:33:57,120 --> 00:33:59,120 Speaker 1: into the piston and we couldn't get the piston to 660 00:33:59,160 --> 00:34:02,760 Speaker 1: go back into the count. It was like oblonged. So 661 00:34:02,800 --> 00:34:04,720 Speaker 1: we real quick went out to the AutoZone pro dot 662 00:34:04,720 --> 00:34:07,160 Speaker 1: com website looked it up because they have great pictures there, 663 00:34:07,800 --> 00:34:09,200 Speaker 1: and you know, it's one of the things we love 664 00:34:09,239 --> 00:34:12,640 Speaker 1: about AutoZone and the website for US pros, and we 665 00:34:12,640 --> 00:34:14,439 Speaker 1: were able to see and you know, listen, the dura 666 00:34:14,480 --> 00:34:17,239 Speaker 1: Ast calipers are just phenomenal. Just didn't fit, finish and 667 00:34:17,280 --> 00:34:20,640 Speaker 1: everything else. But you know, obviously we had them rushes 668 00:34:20,640 --> 00:34:22,200 Speaker 1: over a pair. We were trying to figure out what happened. 669 00:34:22,320 --> 00:34:26,320 Speaker 1: We realized the guy before us had put the inner 670 00:34:26,360 --> 00:34:28,960 Speaker 1: brake pad, he swapped the inner and the outer breakpad. 671 00:34:28,960 --> 00:34:30,880 Speaker 1: He put the pads in the wrong place, so the 672 00:34:30,960 --> 00:34:33,719 Speaker 1: locator pins for the outside pad were up against the 673 00:34:33,760 --> 00:34:37,640 Speaker 1: piston and that means that the gap was about a 674 00:34:37,760 --> 00:34:40,799 Speaker 1: sixteenth of an inch too high. And we're figuring the 675 00:34:40,840 --> 00:34:43,800 Speaker 1: only way he got the caliper on was a hammer 676 00:34:43,800 --> 00:34:46,080 Speaker 1: and a screwdriver. He kind of just wedged it around 677 00:34:46,080 --> 00:34:50,120 Speaker 1: it up, I'll make it fit right, And God, we 678 00:34:50,160 --> 00:34:52,120 Speaker 1: got to take things away from these guys. They just 679 00:34:52,239 --> 00:34:54,440 Speaker 1: shouldn't be allowed. It just shouldn't be allowed. If it 680 00:34:54,480 --> 00:34:56,799 Speaker 1: doesn't fit, don't force it. I mean, that's got to 681 00:34:56,800 --> 00:34:59,719 Speaker 1: be the rule. But that's my AutoZone pro story for 682 00:34:59,760 --> 00:35:01,680 Speaker 1: the w this week, and it's a true one and 683 00:35:01,800 --> 00:35:04,280 Speaker 1: the tip of the wrench to the guys over at AutoZone. 684 00:35:04,320 --> 00:35:06,359 Speaker 1: We appreciate all they do for us. I'm Ron an 685 00:35:06,400 --> 00:35:08,080 Speaker 1: Ai and the Car Doctor. It's been a pleasure till 686 00:35:08,080 --> 00:35:11,719 Speaker 1: the next time. Remember, good mechanics aren't expensive, they're priceless. 687 00:35:12,040 --> 00:35:14,520 Speaker 1: See you
