1
00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:02,679
Speaker 1: Ron and Anian kept my thoughts in my head directly.

2
00:00:02,720 --> 00:00:04,080
Speaker 1: There was nobody else in the car to talk to him.

3
00:00:04,120 --> 00:00:05,960
Speaker 1: I started talking to myself. They probably will lock me

4
00:00:06,040 --> 00:00:07,880
Speaker 1: up and I'd be a strait jacket right now. Even

5
00:00:07,880 --> 00:00:09,840
Speaker 1: though some of you may enjoy that, the guys on

6
00:00:09,880 --> 00:00:26,440
Speaker 1: the other side of the glass laughed gleefully. The car Doctor,

7
00:00:26,680 --> 00:00:30,640
Speaker 1: diesel oil gets dirty so fast you can't tell if

8
00:00:30,640 --> 00:00:32,440
Speaker 1: it's been changed or not by looking at it. You

9
00:00:32,479 --> 00:00:35,560
Speaker 1: put ten fifteen miles on a diesel vehicle, that oil

10
00:00:35,600 --> 00:00:37,560

Speaker 1: this radio show is all about. I'm glad to be

42
00:02:06,960 --> 00:02:08,920
Speaker 1: back here in studio. It was fun getting out last

43
00:02:08,919 --> 00:02:11,400
Speaker 1: week over at the a sp Trade show down there

44
00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:13,040
Speaker 1: in the Meadowlands. It was nice to see everybody that

45
00:02:13,080 --> 00:02:16,240
Speaker 1: came out. Um, the crowd was huge. I was. I

46
00:02:16,320 --> 00:02:18,680
Speaker 1: was pleasantly surprised to see such a huge turnout and

47
00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:21,320
Speaker 1: see the fans, and you know, that's really what makes

48
00:02:21,320 --> 00:02:24,079
Speaker 1: this radio show all about. It's it's a different experience

49
00:02:24,480 --> 00:02:26,840
Speaker 1: being out in front of the crowd, behind the microphone

50
00:02:27,240 --> 00:02:28,799
Speaker 1: and UM, I was glad to see each and every

51
00:02:28,800 --> 00:02:30,440
Speaker 1: one of you that made it out there. I thank you,

52
00:02:30,800 --> 00:02:32,560
Speaker 1: and UM, you know, we look forward to next year

53
00:02:32,960 --> 00:02:35,639
Speaker 1: and seeing you then and maybe some new faces as well.

54
00:02:37,120 --> 00:02:39,800
Speaker 1: I was gonna start this hour talking a little bit

55
00:02:39,800 --> 00:02:42,000
Speaker 1: about motor oil. I've got some comments to make about it.

56
00:02:42,040 --> 00:02:43,600
Speaker 1: I read a recent article in Triple A. But I

57
00:02:43,639 --> 00:02:46,000
Speaker 1: want to talk you know, as the turn of the

58
00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:47,799
Speaker 1: events happened. UM, I want to tell you a little

59
00:02:47,800 --> 00:02:50,720
Speaker 1: bit about what I've been going through today this Saturday. Uh.

60
00:02:50,760 --> 00:02:54,600
Speaker 1: It's it's it's it's sort of automotive related because it's

61
00:02:54,600 --> 00:02:59,680
Speaker 1: about technology and I think you have to really address

62
00:02:59,720 --> 00:03:04,480
Speaker 1: tech anology and you know, really embrace it. Let me

63
00:03:04,520 --> 00:03:06,000
Speaker 1: go back to the middle of the week. The middle

64
00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:08,240
Speaker 1: of the week found Harry and I fast. Harry and

65
00:03:08,240 --> 00:03:09,440
Speaker 1: I went off on a little bit of a road

66
00:03:09,440 --> 00:03:11,840
Speaker 1: trip on our own. We went down to a local

67
00:03:11,880 --> 00:03:13,799
Speaker 1: trade show put on by the folks for by Wise

68
00:03:13,800 --> 00:03:16,840
Speaker 1: Auto Parts here in New Jersey, big parts warehouse, uh

69
00:03:16,919 --> 00:03:19,760
Speaker 1: here in this part of the country, and they were

70
00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:22,880
Speaker 1: doing a a statewide I guess would be the best

71
00:03:22,919 --> 00:03:25,560
Speaker 1: example trade show, and we got to sit and meet

72
00:03:25,600 --> 00:03:29,000
Speaker 1: and talk to different vendors from different places. Denso was

73
00:03:29,040 --> 00:03:32,120
Speaker 1: there among them, and UM, I'm gonna tell you about

74
00:03:32,120 --> 00:03:36,040
Speaker 1: that in a quick second. But it was interesting to

75
00:03:36,600 --> 00:03:40,600
Speaker 1: see the technology and what's coming down the pike. It

76
00:03:40,600 --> 00:03:42,360
Speaker 1: also made me feel a little bit better that some

77
00:03:42,400 --> 00:03:44,240
Speaker 1: of the decisions I've made in the past two years

78
00:03:44,680 --> 00:03:48,520
Speaker 1: to alter the shops direction and instead of going more

79
00:03:48,640 --> 00:03:51,400
Speaker 1: towards nuts and bolts, which is clearly not the future,

80
00:03:51,720 --> 00:03:54,440
Speaker 1: and I'm trying to get a leap on the competition

81
00:03:54,480 --> 00:03:59,000
Speaker 1: and just run towards technology, and it was encouraging to

82
00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:02,320
Speaker 1: see that. Yeah, embracing technology is clearly the way to go.

83
00:04:03,360 --> 00:04:08,480
Speaker 1: The Denzo story before I forget um, it's amazing what

84
00:04:08,640 --> 00:04:11,440
Speaker 1: the power of connection can do when you're working with

85
00:04:11,480 --> 00:04:14,120
Speaker 1: a good parts house and and a good parts supplier

86
00:04:14,160 --> 00:04:17,239
Speaker 1: and a good company. So we're at the trade show

87
00:04:17,560 --> 00:04:19,839
Speaker 1: and Henry's Taurus. And I'll call him by his first

88
00:04:19,880 --> 00:04:21,880
Speaker 1: name because Henry listens to the show all the time

89
00:04:22,200 --> 00:04:24,640
Speaker 1: and he's been a regular customer forever and ever and ever.

90
00:04:25,040 --> 00:04:27,760
Speaker 1: And Henry, I know exactly who I'm talking about. Henry

91
00:04:27,880 --> 00:04:30,919
Speaker 1: drives among one of four cars. Henry's always driving a

92
00:04:30,920 --> 00:04:35,640
Speaker 1: bunch of different cars. A ninety four s h O Taurus. Now,

93
00:04:35,680 --> 00:04:37,920
Speaker 1: if you know anything about s h O Taurus is,

94
00:04:38,560 --> 00:04:40,800
Speaker 1: you know that they're they're getting rarer by the day.

95
00:04:40,839 --> 00:04:44,080
Speaker 1: The the s h O Tauris was the Ford Performance

96
00:04:44,200 --> 00:04:46,600
Speaker 1: version of a Ford Tourish. You know, they made it

97
00:04:46,680 --> 00:04:49,680
Speaker 1: into a little bit of a performance vehicle, put a

98
00:04:49,760 --> 00:04:52,680
Speaker 1: Yamaha engine in it or a Yamaha top end, and um,

99
00:04:52,760 --> 00:04:54,800
Speaker 1: you know, they really hold they were They were really

100
00:04:54,880 --> 00:04:56,760
Speaker 1: quick little cars. Were not a little, but they were

101
00:04:56,839 --> 00:04:59,880
Speaker 1: quick cars in their time. Henry's car needs to star.

102
00:05:01,480 --> 00:05:04,120
Speaker 1: Now you would think this is a pretty easy task.

103
00:05:04,279 --> 00:05:08,239
Speaker 1: How hard could it be? Well, the problem is that

104
00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:12,000
Speaker 1: it's a little specific, being that it's a Taurus, and

105
00:05:12,400 --> 00:05:16,960
Speaker 1: no one, including Ford makes it anymore. It's obsolete. I

106
00:05:17,040 --> 00:05:19,480
Speaker 1: just happened to bump into the dense ol guy and

107
00:05:19,520 --> 00:05:21,600
Speaker 1: I forget his name at the moment. I'll look it

108
00:05:21,680 --> 00:05:24,000
Speaker 1: up later if it's that important. But as I was

109
00:05:24,040 --> 00:05:26,680
Speaker 1: standing there talking to him the Northeast Regional Sales RIP

110
00:05:27,200 --> 00:05:31,279
Speaker 1: and UM, we were having the conversation. You know, I

111
00:05:31,320 --> 00:05:33,279
Speaker 1: started explaining it to him, and you know, he knew

112
00:05:33,279 --> 00:05:35,800
Speaker 1: who I was, and and I'm I apologize for not

113
00:05:35,920 --> 00:05:37,880
Speaker 1: having his name at the tip of my tongue. But

114
00:05:38,200 --> 00:05:43,320
Speaker 1: we were having a conversation about different things and and

115
00:05:43,320 --> 00:05:45,640
Speaker 1: and how dense is growing and what they're becoming as

116
00:05:45,680 --> 00:05:48,240
Speaker 1: a company and their efforts to you know, reach across

117
00:05:48,279 --> 00:05:50,159
Speaker 1: and bring more product in and and you know, I

118
00:05:50,160 --> 00:05:52,920
Speaker 1: told him, I said, listen, then, so just does everything right.

119
00:05:52,960 --> 00:05:55,320
Speaker 1: It seems they make great product. It works, it does

120
00:05:55,320 --> 00:05:57,960
Speaker 1: what it's supposed to do. I said, what are the

121
00:05:58,000 --> 00:06:03,479
Speaker 1: odds that you can get or find a starter for

122
00:06:03,560 --> 00:06:07,720
Speaker 1: a ninety four showgun tourists, which nobody, including Ford, has

123
00:06:07,760 --> 00:06:10,159
Speaker 1: been able to do. He said, let me go into

124
00:06:10,160 --> 00:06:13,479
Speaker 1: the computer. He goes into the computer and lo and behold,

125
00:06:13,680 --> 00:06:17,279
Speaker 1: technology delivers and saves the day because he's able to

126
00:06:17,320 --> 00:06:20,880
Speaker 1: find a dense O starter for s h O twenty

127
00:06:20,920 --> 00:06:24,679
Speaker 1: three year old car and it's being shipped to the shop.

128
00:06:24,720 --> 00:06:27,279
Speaker 1: We'll have it on Monday, and it will solve Henry's

129
00:06:27,279 --> 00:06:29,080
Speaker 1: problem of having to put a starter in it because

130
00:06:29,120 --> 00:06:31,080
Speaker 1: the old one, when you turn the key, the smoke

131
00:06:31,160 --> 00:06:34,560
Speaker 1: gets out, and that's probably a bad thing. So we decided, yeah,

132
00:06:34,600 --> 00:06:37,159
Speaker 1: we'll start with a starter. And I told you that

133
00:06:37,320 --> 00:06:40,880
Speaker 1: story about technology to tell you this one. And thanks

134
00:06:40,920 --> 00:06:43,640
Speaker 1: to the folks at then so and all that they do,

135
00:06:43,680 --> 00:06:48,040
Speaker 1: because I appreciate it. So I told you that story

136
00:06:48,240 --> 00:06:51,960
Speaker 1: to tell you this one. You have to embrace technology.

137
00:06:52,080 --> 00:06:54,200
Speaker 1: I woke up this morning and as you know, the

138
00:06:54,400 --> 00:06:57,720
Speaker 1: the Saturday morning ritual for me is you know the

139
00:06:57,800 --> 00:07:04,240
Speaker 1: Chiropractor breakfast radio show. It's it's the Saturday routine, and

140
00:07:04,360 --> 00:07:08,920
Speaker 1: it's supposed to be a calm day in a day

141
00:07:08,920 --> 00:07:12,760
Speaker 1: of you know, when you're just trying to get into

142
00:07:12,800 --> 00:07:14,560
Speaker 1: the groove because you've got to go and do this thing.

143
00:07:14,600 --> 00:07:18,559
Speaker 1: We call the show. Around two o'clock, the Littlest Nanny

144
00:07:18,640 --> 00:07:22,280
Speaker 1: in his home. She's Easter week home this week, and

145
00:07:22,400 --> 00:07:24,880
Speaker 1: I knew I was in trouble when she came up

146
00:07:24,920 --> 00:07:27,520
Speaker 1: holding her cell phone in her hand and I went,

147
00:07:27,800 --> 00:07:31,840
Speaker 1: everything all right, kind of hoping, well, no, my cell

148
00:07:31,840 --> 00:07:35,840
Speaker 1: phone is stuck in a boot loop. What's a boot loop? Well,

149
00:07:36,520 --> 00:07:39,960
Speaker 1: after some research online, she found out that the this

150
00:07:40,040 --> 00:07:43,280
Speaker 1: particular G four cell phone has a problem where at

151
00:07:43,360 --> 00:07:46,440
Speaker 1: random it'll go into a boot sequence and it won't

152
00:07:46,440 --> 00:07:48,560
Speaker 1: come out of it. So the phone just stays at

153
00:07:48,560 --> 00:07:52,280
Speaker 1: the home screen and won't fix itself. Got on the

154
00:07:52,320 --> 00:07:54,840
Speaker 1: phone with the Horizon Wireless. Now, I've got to say

155
00:07:54,880 --> 00:07:57,560
Speaker 1: they were they were pretty helpful. We appreciated their efforts.

156
00:07:57,640 --> 00:07:59,600
Speaker 1: It was we tried everything, we did a hard factory

157
00:07:59,640 --> 00:08:02,559
Speaker 1: reset it, we went through all the routine. Didn't work,

158
00:08:03,680 --> 00:08:06,960
Speaker 1: and it was about a three hour process between the

159
00:08:07,000 --> 00:08:09,120
Speaker 1: time we talked to them, got off the phone, tried this,

160
00:08:09,200 --> 00:08:12,480
Speaker 1: got back on the phone, tried that, did this, and

161
00:08:12,560 --> 00:08:15,000
Speaker 1: in the end we spoke to a woman by the

162
00:08:15,080 --> 00:08:17,600
Speaker 1: name of Christine in Willmington, North Carolina, just a little

163
00:08:17,600 --> 00:08:20,120
Speaker 1: bit ago, about a half hour an hour or so

164
00:08:20,240 --> 00:08:24,080
Speaker 1: before air today, and she made arrangements for a replacement

165
00:08:24,080 --> 00:08:27,239
Speaker 1: phone to come out, and we swapped the phone number

166
00:08:27,280 --> 00:08:31,760
Speaker 1: of that phone to a to an older family phone

167
00:08:31,800 --> 00:08:34,840
Speaker 1: that we have around the house and made it work

168
00:08:35,480 --> 00:08:37,320
Speaker 1: in that she now has a cell phone so she

169
00:08:37,360 --> 00:08:40,920
Speaker 1: can travel and be safe. Because isn't it funny that

170
00:08:41,040 --> 00:08:45,440
Speaker 1: as technology brings us forward with cell phones, there's no

171
00:08:45,520 --> 00:08:48,600
Speaker 1: pay phones around anymore. So you can't just say, well,

172
00:08:48,600 --> 00:08:50,800
Speaker 1: I don't need my cell phone. You know what, I'll

173
00:08:50,800 --> 00:08:52,840
Speaker 1: just use a payphone. I haven't seen a cell phone

174
00:08:52,840 --> 00:08:54,840
Speaker 1: in so long I couldn't tell you where the where

175
00:08:54,840 --> 00:09:02,160
Speaker 1: they are, And it becomes an issue. So technology, you've

176
00:09:02,200 --> 00:09:04,600
Speaker 1: got to embrace it. You've got to be ready for it.

177
00:09:05,080 --> 00:09:08,000
Speaker 1: You've got to expect it. You've got to be like Denso.

178
00:09:08,120 --> 00:09:10,679
Speaker 1: Denso expects that as technology changes, they kind of keep

179
00:09:10,679 --> 00:09:14,360
Speaker 1: things the same, right, you know. They they make parts

180
00:09:14,400 --> 00:09:19,040
Speaker 1: available for older vehicles, they make parts available for newer vehicles. Verizon,

181
00:09:19,200 --> 00:09:21,480
Speaker 1: they've got a plan built into the phone so that

182
00:09:21,480 --> 00:09:24,760
Speaker 1: when the phone goes bad, they talked to the manufacturer,

183
00:09:24,880 --> 00:09:26,880
Speaker 1: you know LG. In this case. LG's got a plan

184
00:09:27,400 --> 00:09:30,120
Speaker 1: so that they can do a factory data reset to

185
00:09:30,200 --> 00:09:33,760
Speaker 1: help restore the phone back to functionality or as best

186
00:09:33,760 --> 00:09:36,079
Speaker 1: as it can barring a hardware failure, which is I

187
00:09:36,120 --> 00:09:40,880
Speaker 1: think what this phone suffered you, the consumer. You've got

188
00:09:40,880 --> 00:09:43,920
Speaker 1: to embrace technology because you've got to make sure you

189
00:09:43,920 --> 00:09:45,880
Speaker 1: find a mechanic that understands, first of all, how to

190
00:09:45,920 --> 00:09:48,920
Speaker 1: spell it, and second of all how to understand it,

191
00:09:49,440 --> 00:09:52,920
Speaker 1: and and and work with it. Someone once said to

192
00:09:52,920 --> 00:09:54,880
Speaker 1: me the other day they were watching me work. She

193
00:09:54,920 --> 00:09:57,760
Speaker 1: had stopped by the shop and Jackie said to me,

194
00:09:57,880 --> 00:10:00,640
Speaker 1: She said, how come you work and you so calm?

195
00:10:00,679 --> 00:10:02,280
Speaker 1: And I said, well, not all the time, I said,

196
00:10:02,320 --> 00:10:04,280
Speaker 1: but most of the time. She goes, Yeah, she goes,

197
00:10:04,320 --> 00:10:06,640
Speaker 1: you don't really get upset that much. And I said,

198
00:10:06,679 --> 00:10:08,320
Speaker 1: you know why, jack because at the end of the day,

199
00:10:08,360 --> 00:10:09,960
Speaker 1: I know I'm still gonna have that broken car in

200
00:10:10,000 --> 00:10:12,160
Speaker 1: front of me, and I've got to fix it. And

201
00:10:12,160 --> 00:10:14,520
Speaker 1: that's part of what dealing with technology is all about.

202
00:10:15,559 --> 00:10:19,680
Speaker 1: And that's really what Verizon did today. They just kind

203
00:10:19,679 --> 00:10:21,880
Speaker 1: of helped us work our way through it. And that's

204
00:10:21,880 --> 00:10:24,520
Speaker 1: what Denso did last week. They just kind of helped

205
00:10:24,559 --> 00:10:26,600
Speaker 1: us work our way through it. And that's what you

206
00:10:26,640 --> 00:10:30,560
Speaker 1: need to do. Is frustrating as it is, technology is

207
00:10:30,600 --> 00:10:33,600
Speaker 1: here to stay and only get bigger in time. Hello

208
00:10:33,640 --> 00:10:35,880
Speaker 1: and welcome ron Andy in the car. Docorate your service

209
00:10:35,880 --> 00:10:40,800
Speaker 1: at zo N zero. If you've got an automotive technology

210
00:10:40,880 --> 00:10:44,080
Speaker 1: question or anything else. I'll return right after this to

211
00:10:44,080 --> 00:10:45,800
Speaker 1: open the garage doors and talk to you about it.

212
00:10:45,920 --> 00:11:17,520
Speaker 1: Give us a call. Don't go away, Hey, welcome back.

213
00:11:17,559 --> 00:11:19,240
Speaker 1: Why don't any of the car doctor. As we roll

214
00:11:19,280 --> 00:11:21,640
Speaker 1: along this hour, let's kick open the garage doors. Harry,

215
00:11:22,320 --> 00:11:24,520
Speaker 1: whore on whom do you have for me? As we

216
00:11:24,559 --> 00:11:27,679
Speaker 1: opened the garage doors this hour? We have Steve in

217
00:11:28,240 --> 00:11:32,480
Speaker 1: Baton Rouge, Louisiana. He's got a jeep Wrangler with a

218
00:11:32,559 --> 00:11:35,520
Speaker 1: hundred and six thousand mills and he's having starting issues

219
00:11:35,640 --> 00:11:38,640
Speaker 1: just broken in. Steve. Welcome to the car doctor, Thanks Harry. Steve,

220
00:11:38,679 --> 00:11:41,640
Speaker 1: Welcome to the car doctor, sir. How can I help? Ryan?

221
00:11:41,720 --> 00:11:44,640
Speaker 1: Thanks for taking the call. You're welcome. What's going on? So?

222
00:11:45,200 --> 00:11:51,160
Speaker 1: So I got this jee runs really good, and um,

223
00:11:52,040 --> 00:11:57,559
Speaker 1: I'm just having some problems when I, uh, Steve is

224
00:11:57,600 --> 00:12:01,200
Speaker 1: this is this a four leader? By the way, which

225
00:12:01,200 --> 00:12:08,000
Speaker 1: engine is in this jeep? Steve? Oh Steve? What happened

226
00:12:08,000 --> 00:12:12,160
Speaker 1: to Steve? Oh yeah, there you go, Steve. Yeah, you're right,

227
00:12:12,520 --> 00:12:14,720
Speaker 1: you're right, Yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm just getting a little

228
00:12:14,720 --> 00:12:16,720
Speaker 1: bit of static and I thought I might have lost

229
00:12:16,720 --> 00:12:20,559
Speaker 1: the call. Yeah, um what what? What engines in this jeep? Steve?

230
00:12:21,120 --> 00:12:25,840
Speaker 1: It's got that four lead straight six? So you know,

231
00:12:25,880 --> 00:12:29,320
Speaker 1: when I, uh, I don't drive it every day when

232
00:12:29,320 --> 00:12:32,480
Speaker 1: it sits so after I've driven it for an hour

233
00:12:32,600 --> 00:12:35,880
Speaker 1: or two or whether it sits for a week, has

234
00:12:35,920 --> 00:12:40,040
Speaker 1: a hard time catch and get started. Um, you know,

235
00:12:40,720 --> 00:12:42,840
Speaker 1: I gotta sit there and pump the gas pedal. It's

236
00:12:42,840 --> 00:12:46,560
Speaker 1: like the engine is not getting any any gas, so

237
00:12:46,720 --> 00:12:50,480
Speaker 1: it would be it would be extended crank time. Yeah,

238
00:12:50,679 --> 00:12:54,280
Speaker 1: long crank time. Now, this is a throttle body port

239
00:12:54,320 --> 00:12:58,680
Speaker 1: fuel injected car, right, this this has a singular throttle

240
00:12:58,760 --> 00:13:02,839
Speaker 1: body for are opening and it has I'm trying to

241
00:13:02,840 --> 00:13:07,520
Speaker 1: remember the configuration six injectors, one per cylinder. I believe so,

242
00:13:07,559 --> 00:13:10,440
Speaker 1: but I can't attest to that, right, I believe that's

243
00:13:10,440 --> 00:13:14,120
Speaker 1: what this is back in. So you know, flopping the

244
00:13:14,160 --> 00:13:17,400
Speaker 1: throttle plate really shouldn't do anything, has no bearing on

245
00:13:17,440 --> 00:13:21,079
Speaker 1: it whatsoever. So now we've got to work does that

246
00:13:21,240 --> 00:13:24,040
Speaker 1: really help or is that just your imagination and all

247
00:13:24,080 --> 00:13:26,640
Speaker 1: you're doing is just cranking it long enough that it

248
00:13:26,720 --> 00:13:31,640
Speaker 1: finally catches for some other reason. Um, I don't I

249
00:13:31,679 --> 00:13:33,280
Speaker 1: know the answer to that. I'll have to give it

250
00:13:33,320 --> 00:13:35,400
Speaker 1: a try, right, You've got to, you know, because it's

251
00:13:35,720 --> 00:13:39,400
Speaker 1: it's basically that's just a mechanical flap the throttle plate,

252
00:13:40,640 --> 00:13:43,560
Speaker 1: and all that's doing is just as you open up

253
00:13:43,600 --> 00:13:47,160
Speaker 1: the throttle plate, a sensor reports throttle angle. The computer

254
00:13:47,240 --> 00:13:50,160
Speaker 1: takes that into as far as for calculation. This is

255
00:13:50,160 --> 00:13:53,320
Speaker 1: a map sensor vehicle. There's no mass airflow sensor here.

256
00:13:53,960 --> 00:13:56,559
Speaker 1: It's looking at manifold vacuum to help calculate as part

257
00:13:56,559 --> 00:14:00,800
Speaker 1: of the calculation for fuel delivery. And it really has

258
00:14:00,800 --> 00:14:03,719
Speaker 1: no bearing so pumping the pedal per se, you know,

259
00:14:03,760 --> 00:14:05,959
Speaker 1: And that's what we were taught. You know, you can

260
00:14:06,000 --> 00:14:07,920
Speaker 1: sort of you know, see the age of the person

261
00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:10,360
Speaker 1: driving the car. And I'm right there with you, um,

262
00:14:10,920 --> 00:14:13,480
Speaker 1: you know us older guys. Yeah, that was the first instinct.

263
00:14:13,559 --> 00:14:16,400
Speaker 1: It's a carburetor hit the pedal, man, but it's it's

264
00:14:16,440 --> 00:14:19,600
Speaker 1: not it. Let's look at and talk about do you

265
00:14:19,600 --> 00:14:22,320
Speaker 1: have the ability to just take a fuel pressure check?

266
00:14:24,120 --> 00:14:27,440
Speaker 1: I do not? Okay, Um, spend a couple of bucks

267
00:14:27,480 --> 00:14:30,600
Speaker 1: you like tinkering with the car, Steve a little bit? Yeah,

268
00:14:30,640 --> 00:14:32,360
Speaker 1: you know what by a fuel pressure gage said? They're

269
00:14:32,440 --> 00:14:35,320
Speaker 1: under a hunter bucks. You know you'll they make some

270
00:14:35,720 --> 00:14:38,480
Speaker 1: they make some different ends and different adapters. You know,

271
00:14:38,760 --> 00:14:41,600
Speaker 1: if if you've got do you have an O'raillyota parts

272
00:14:41,600 --> 00:14:45,720
Speaker 1: around you somewhere? Uh? Yes, there's one in town. Yeah,

273
00:14:45,720 --> 00:14:48,560
Speaker 1: you get overton Oraillyota parts. They've got a good selection

274
00:14:48,560 --> 00:14:50,840
Speaker 1: of tools. You can find what you need there. You

275
00:14:50,840 --> 00:14:52,840
Speaker 1: can also talk to the guys and say, hey, what works.

276
00:14:53,080 --> 00:14:55,000
Speaker 1: Tell them you looking for a fuel pressure gage, because

277
00:14:55,000 --> 00:14:58,600
Speaker 1: the first thing I'm gonna tell you is that it's

278
00:14:58,640 --> 00:15:01,280
Speaker 1: an easy enough thing to do. Of the Strader port

279
00:15:01,480 --> 00:15:03,480
Speaker 1: is right up on the front of the rail. You'll

280
00:15:03,520 --> 00:15:06,840
Speaker 1: see a screw on cap looks like an A C

281
00:15:07,040 --> 00:15:09,360
Speaker 1: service cap, but it's attached to the fuel rail with

282
00:15:09,440 --> 00:15:12,520
Speaker 1: the engine off. Unscrew that, you'll see a Strader valve there.

283
00:15:13,080 --> 00:15:15,880
Speaker 1: You can just hook the fuel pressure gauge to it,

284
00:15:16,280 --> 00:15:19,920
Speaker 1: turn the key to the omposition where's fuel pressure, and

285
00:15:19,960 --> 00:15:21,880
Speaker 1: then once you get the once, once you get the

286
00:15:21,880 --> 00:15:26,280
Speaker 1: car running, then it's real easy to do a fuel

287
00:15:26,360 --> 00:15:30,160
Speaker 1: sample and volume test if you and the joke around

288
00:15:30,200 --> 00:15:32,600
Speaker 1: here has been for the longest times. You know, Ron

289
00:15:32,680 --> 00:15:35,600
Speaker 1: likes snap Will. Actually I never drink it because I'm

290
00:15:35,640 --> 00:15:37,440
Speaker 1: just not a snap all guy. But I love the

291
00:15:37,480 --> 00:15:41,240
Speaker 1: Snapple bottles. They're clear, they're the right size. If you

292
00:15:41,280 --> 00:15:44,600
Speaker 1: take an empty Snapple bottle and put the pressure relief

293
00:15:44,640 --> 00:15:47,680
Speaker 1: line from the pressure gauge into the bottle. On an

294
00:15:47,680 --> 00:15:52,320
Speaker 1: older car like that, the fuel volume it should actually

295
00:15:52,360 --> 00:15:54,440
Speaker 1: if you hold down the return with the engine running,

296
00:15:54,600 --> 00:15:57,680
Speaker 1: fuel pressure should fill that Snapple bottle and just under

297
00:15:57,720 --> 00:16:01,360
Speaker 1: twenty five seconds. That's it's, it's it's it's around a

298
00:16:01,400 --> 00:16:04,280
Speaker 1: point and it's just about right. So if if, if

299
00:16:04,520 --> 00:16:07,080
Speaker 1: it does that volume is good. If pressure is good,

300
00:16:07,120 --> 00:16:09,720
Speaker 1: pressure is good. You can also take a fuel sample,

301
00:16:10,000 --> 00:16:14,320
Speaker 1: see what cleanliness is and we're good. We know fuel

302
00:16:14,400 --> 00:16:18,200
Speaker 1: is out of the picture, and the pressure, the fuel

303
00:16:18,200 --> 00:16:21,240
Speaker 1: pressure be if memory serves me correcting. If you email me,

304
00:16:21,240 --> 00:16:23,000
Speaker 1: I'll give you an exact number. I believe you're gonna

305
00:16:23,000 --> 00:16:26,000
Speaker 1: see thirty five to forty two pounds engine running, and

306
00:16:26,000 --> 00:16:27,560
Speaker 1: if you pull the regulator of if it'll go up

307
00:16:27,600 --> 00:16:29,600
Speaker 1: about five six pounds. But if you send me an

308
00:16:29,600 --> 00:16:31,760
Speaker 1: email Ront at card Doctor show dot com, I'll make

309
00:16:31,800 --> 00:16:35,480
Speaker 1: sure I get you the exact spec. Somewhere around eighty

310
00:16:35,560 --> 00:16:39,040
Speaker 1: eight through two, I saw some different numbers that worked.

311
00:16:39,600 --> 00:16:43,880
Speaker 1: But my point is sometimes testing something as simple as

312
00:16:43,880 --> 00:16:47,080
Speaker 1: fuel pressure even though and people will say to me, yeah,

313
00:16:47,080 --> 00:16:48,640
Speaker 1: but I don't see how it could be fuel pressure.

314
00:16:48,880 --> 00:16:52,080
Speaker 1: Let's eliminate it. What I just described to you is

315
00:16:52,120 --> 00:16:55,920
Speaker 1: at best a seven minute test. Started up, Hook it up,

316
00:16:56,520 --> 00:16:59,920
Speaker 1: Read the gauge, dump the fuel, read the bottle. You're

317
00:17:00,080 --> 00:17:02,040
Speaker 1: on and then you can kind of cross it off

318
00:17:02,080 --> 00:17:06,159
Speaker 1: your list. All right, So on the assumption that fuel

319
00:17:06,200 --> 00:17:09,600
Speaker 1: pressure is good, Stevie, the next thing I'm gonna tell

320
00:17:09,640 --> 00:17:12,200
Speaker 1: you is this car should have a distributor. Correct spark

321
00:17:12,240 --> 00:17:20,119
Speaker 1: plug wires and old school stuff. Steve, Oh, we lost, Steve.

322
00:17:20,680 --> 00:17:22,360
Speaker 1: Let me answer the question the way I would have

323
00:17:22,600 --> 00:17:25,080
Speaker 1: This should have a distributor, Steve. Al right, on the

324
00:17:25,160 --> 00:17:27,359
Speaker 1: chance that you're still there in your phone dot, I

325
00:17:27,400 --> 00:17:30,520
Speaker 1: know you're having phone problems. So my next question is,

326
00:17:30,720 --> 00:17:33,240
Speaker 1: bring the crank, bring the engine around the top dead center,

327
00:17:34,160 --> 00:17:37,480
Speaker 1: and make number one, make sure you're on the compression stroke,

328
00:17:38,359 --> 00:17:42,560
Speaker 1: and pull the distributor cap off. Does the rotor line

329
00:17:42,640 --> 00:17:46,800
Speaker 1: up with the contact for number one spark plug wire?

330
00:17:47,359 --> 00:17:50,879
Speaker 1: It should be. It should be that the rotor is

331
00:17:51,200 --> 00:17:56,320
Speaker 1: just leaving the number one tower of the distributor cap.

332
00:17:56,680 --> 00:17:58,720
Speaker 1: And and sometimes you know what, you're driving an older

333
00:17:58,800 --> 00:18:00,960
Speaker 1: vehicle like this. They're cheap enough, go buy a and

334
00:18:00,960 --> 00:18:03,720
Speaker 1: and here's one good thing to do with Chinese parts, alright,

335
00:18:03,840 --> 00:18:06,720
Speaker 1: cheaper parts is cut up. Get an old distributor cap

336
00:18:06,760 --> 00:18:08,159
Speaker 1: and cut it up. Cut it up so you have

337
00:18:08,160 --> 00:18:11,240
Speaker 1: a window. So as you bring that rotor around, you'll

338
00:18:11,320 --> 00:18:15,399
Speaker 1: see what position it has right under that contact. Is

339
00:18:15,440 --> 00:18:19,080
Speaker 1: it lined up? The trailing edge of that distributor, of

340
00:18:19,080 --> 00:18:22,600
Speaker 1: that rotor should be lined up just leaving number one tower.

341
00:18:22,880 --> 00:18:25,720
Speaker 1: If it's lined up correctly. If it's not, this is

342
00:18:25,720 --> 00:18:30,000
Speaker 1: a pinned distributor and you're going to have to modify

343
00:18:30,080 --> 00:18:32,639
Speaker 1: the base in order to h move it a little bit.

344
00:18:32,680 --> 00:18:35,760
Speaker 1: And that may help your starting problem as well, because

345
00:18:35,800 --> 00:18:38,720
Speaker 1: things change timing, change, stretch and other issues. So do

346
00:18:38,760 --> 00:18:41,280
Speaker 1: those two things, the fuel and the ignition, and we'll

347
00:18:41,320 --> 00:18:43,639
Speaker 1: go from there. Any in the car Doctor, I'll be

348
00:18:43,680 --> 00:19:02,000
Speaker 1: back right after this. Can hey, welcome back? An name

349
00:19:02,040 --> 00:19:05,560
Speaker 1: the car doctor. Interesting article in uh in a recent

350
00:19:05,600 --> 00:19:07,680
Speaker 1: magazine Triple A was putting out. They were talking about

351
00:19:07,720 --> 00:19:10,480
Speaker 1: motor oil myths and um things that were going on

352
00:19:10,960 --> 00:19:13,960
Speaker 1: as as far as what the myths are. And one

353
00:19:14,000 --> 00:19:17,200
Speaker 1: of the things is wait a minute, uh, hang on

354
00:19:17,320 --> 00:19:19,760
Speaker 1: in the folks, I'm sorry, Tom, what's that? What's that noise?

355
00:19:19,840 --> 00:19:21,760
Speaker 1: Is there a truck backing up to the studio? Yes,

356
00:19:21,760 --> 00:19:23,200
Speaker 1: there's a truck backing up to the studio. You know

357
00:19:23,200 --> 00:19:24,960
Speaker 1: when you ordered t shirts a couple of weeks ago,

358
00:19:25,680 --> 00:19:27,320
Speaker 1: did you order? How many did you order? Well? I

359
00:19:27,680 --> 00:19:30,560
Speaker 1: ordered a hundred. I think the zero key on your

360
00:19:30,600 --> 00:19:32,600
Speaker 1: keyboard stuff. Because the guy said he has ten thousand

361
00:19:32,600 --> 00:19:36,160
Speaker 1: in the truck, ten thousand T shirts. We ordered ten

362
00:19:36,240 --> 00:19:42,399
Speaker 1: thousands stuff. Well, where's Harry? Did Harry leave the room?

363
00:19:42,480 --> 00:19:43,920
Speaker 1: Can I blame him? Come on, I'm in the middle

364
00:19:43,920 --> 00:19:45,320
Speaker 1: of the show here. What's I don't think I don't

365
00:19:45,320 --> 00:19:47,359
Speaker 1: think you can blame Harry. Harry says he had nothing

366
00:19:47,359 --> 00:19:50,600
Speaker 1: to do with this. So, so what's the deal that

367
00:19:50,680 --> 00:19:53,240
Speaker 1: we've got ten thousand T shirts and a truck outside? Yeah,

368
00:19:53,240 --> 00:19:56,000
Speaker 1: it was out of garage sales. Well thanks, Harry, you

369
00:19:56,000 --> 00:19:59,879
Speaker 1: really know me and garage sales. Yeah, yeah, unfortunately, So listen,

370
00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:01,879
Speaker 1: what are we gonna do? You know what, what do

371
00:20:01,920 --> 00:20:03,160
Speaker 1: you want to do to get rid of them? That's

372
00:20:03,160 --> 00:20:06,240
Speaker 1: the bigger problem, you know. I have this idea. Yeah,

373
00:20:06,240 --> 00:20:07,640
Speaker 1: the last time you had an idea, I was doing

374
00:20:07,640 --> 00:20:09,879
Speaker 1: a nationally syndicated radio show. Go ahead, No, no no, no,

375
00:20:10,000 --> 00:20:12,080
Speaker 1: this is a great idea. We have our Facebook page.

383
00:20:35,400 --> 00:20:41,840
Speaker 1: call and post it two the Facebook page. We should

384
00:20:41,840 --> 00:20:43,919

385
00:20:43,960 --> 00:20:46,720

00:21:48,280 --> 00:21:51,160
Speaker 1: Social media department. Harry, you and Tom are in charge

410
00:21:51,160 --> 00:21:54,439
Speaker 1: of that. I'm just gonna answer a question since I

411
00:21:54,480 --> 00:21:56,320
Speaker 1: may have I may have ordered the shirts wrong, but

412
00:21:56,359 --> 00:21:58,080
Speaker 1: you guys are now going to go to work. So

413
00:21:58,440 --> 00:22:00,080
Speaker 1: because maybe we'll change the rules, I think I just

414
00:22:00,080 --> 00:22:03,560
Speaker 1: put them all on eBay. So ten thousand card doctor

415
00:22:03,600 --> 00:22:05,760
Speaker 1: t shirts on eBay, I don't think so. So we're

416
00:22:05,760 --> 00:22:10,240
Speaker 1: gonna give away one per hour every week for the

417
00:22:10,280 --> 00:22:12,520
Speaker 1: rest of the year. That works works for me, he's

418
00:22:12,560 --> 00:22:14,680
Speaker 1: work for you, Tony for the rest of the year.

419
00:22:14,760 --> 00:22:17,400
Speaker 1: Of course, that's more than ten that's not quite ten thousand.

420
00:22:17,480 --> 00:22:19,640
Speaker 1: But we'll be doing some remotes coming up. We'll find

421
00:22:19,640 --> 00:22:21,800
Speaker 1: other ways to get doing that. And you know, quite frankly,

422
00:22:21,840 --> 00:22:25,919
Speaker 1: I've got furniture to polished. So hey, okay, can I

423
00:22:25,920 --> 00:22:28,840
Speaker 1: get back to questions now? I mean yes, yes, okay,

424

00:22:51,880 --> 00:22:53,960
Speaker 1: to the Car Doctor, Sir. How can I help than?

434
00:22:55,720 --> 00:22:57,520
Speaker 1: I bet you wish you had submitted this on Facebook.

00:22:57,520 --> 00:22:58,920
Speaker 1: Now you'd have a shot at a T shirt. And

436
00:22:58,960 --> 00:23:02,800
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, okay, never late, never dollar short. But you

437
00:23:02,840 --> 00:23:05,040
Speaker 1: get out to Facebook like I send somebmit a question.

438
00:23:05,040 --> 00:23:09,120
Speaker 1: You're in the game, all right, brother? Here in my situation, good,

439
00:23:10,080 --> 00:23:13,080
Speaker 1: I inherited a whole four deep grand Cherokee from a

440
00:23:13,160 --> 00:23:17,119
Speaker 1: sister and it hasn't been driven over a year. The

441
00:23:17,200 --> 00:23:19,920
Speaker 1: history shows that when the car was on the road

442
00:23:20,040 --> 00:23:22,800
Speaker 1: it did have a check engine life. Now that it

443
00:23:22,960 --> 00:23:25,760
Speaker 1: is my possession, I didn't get my nose into it,

444
00:23:25,800 --> 00:23:28,240
Speaker 1: and I came up as I scanned it with four

445
00:23:28,320 --> 00:23:31,600
Speaker 1: codes three and M are related to each other, and

446
00:23:31,640 --> 00:23:35,160
Speaker 1: one is not. Alright, three the three that are related

447
00:23:35,200 --> 00:23:37,560
Speaker 1: to each other, I'll have to do with O two sensors.

448
00:23:38,280 --> 00:23:42,120
Speaker 1: It's a no thirty one and one and one six,

449
00:23:42,560 --> 00:23:45,720
Speaker 1: all right. That stakes to me that it's a shorter

450
00:23:45,800 --> 00:23:50,760
Speaker 1: condition and the element control wire. Yeah, but let me

451
00:23:51,000 --> 00:23:53,119
Speaker 1: let me ask you this, chuck, are you are you

452
00:23:53,200 --> 00:23:57,240
Speaker 1: looking at? Was the battery dead? I don't understand how

453
00:23:57,359 --> 00:23:59,760
Speaker 1: was it was? This? Are these codes that just appeared

454
00:23:59,800 --> 00:24:02,440
Speaker 1: recently after you brought it back to life? Or you're

455
00:24:02,480 --> 00:24:05,920
Speaker 1: going off of old history from a year ago. No,

456
00:24:06,040 --> 00:24:09,080
Speaker 1: I'm going off of something that appeared after a change

457
00:24:09,080 --> 00:24:13,280
Speaker 1: of the battery. Okay, all right? They are? They are

458
00:24:13,280 --> 00:24:19,840
Speaker 1: are the hard fault? Is this the four it's the

459
00:24:19,880 --> 00:24:26,400
Speaker 1: four US? All right? So my history tells me that, um,

460
00:24:26,400 --> 00:24:29,040
Speaker 1: this is a common problem with this year make model,

461
00:24:29,160 --> 00:24:32,880
Speaker 1: with this sensor wire being shorty right and the core

462
00:24:32,920 --> 00:24:37,960
Speaker 1: what again? I'm sorry? P zero Okay? They are a

463
00:24:38,040 --> 00:24:41,520
Speaker 1: P zero zero three one, P zero zero five one

464
00:24:42,480 --> 00:24:45,760
Speaker 1: zero one three six, And I think they're all in

465
00:24:45,880 --> 00:24:49,680
Speaker 1: common because they all show, as they explains, shorter conditions

466
00:24:49,760 --> 00:24:54,960
Speaker 1: detected in the heater element wiring. Okay, so I understand

467
00:24:55,040 --> 00:24:58,720
Speaker 1: talking to my boys at O'Reilly's, that this particular vehicle,

468
00:24:58,800 --> 00:25:03,360
Speaker 1: this era as a condition where the undercarried wiring does

469
00:25:03,480 --> 00:25:08,520
Speaker 1: create a short because they're strapped tighter than Dick's headbane. So, UM,

470
00:25:08,600 --> 00:25:10,600
Speaker 1: I guess my question to you is, then I'll get

471
00:25:10,640 --> 00:25:14,240
Speaker 1: to the other. Oh, the other um computer error is

472
00:25:14,680 --> 00:25:17,320
Speaker 1: I replaced all three d though two centers. When I

473
00:25:17,320 --> 00:25:20,600
Speaker 1: saw the faults, I drove for a hundred fifty miles

474
00:25:20,680 --> 00:25:24,119
Speaker 1: and noticed no check engine life coming back on. I

475
00:25:24,200 --> 00:25:28,840
Speaker 1: rescanned the computer again after that, and the arrow codes returned, however,

476
00:25:28,880 --> 00:25:33,200
Speaker 1: with no chickens and like this time. So my guess

477
00:25:33,320 --> 00:25:36,360
Speaker 1: is one, I need to know what circuitus is on,

478
00:25:36,800 --> 00:25:39,040
Speaker 1: and then my best to and take the fuse out

479
00:25:39,359 --> 00:25:42,200
Speaker 1: and put like an eleven fifty seven bulb in its place,

480
00:25:42,200 --> 00:25:43,920
Speaker 1: and when the bulb goes out, I know I found

481
00:25:43,920 --> 00:25:49,959
Speaker 1: the short. Let's back up a second. Sure you've got

482
00:25:50,160 --> 00:25:55,320
Speaker 1: three codes and pending. They haven't said hard yet, right,

483
00:25:55,359 --> 00:25:59,080
Speaker 1: that's what we just said, right, Okay, So if you

484
00:25:59,160 --> 00:26:01,920
Speaker 1: take fuse is if you look at a few sixteen

485
00:26:01,960 --> 00:26:06,120
Speaker 1: in the power distribution center and it tells me that's

486
00:26:06,160 --> 00:26:11,879
Speaker 1: my right headlight. Well, few sixteen should be power for

487
00:26:12,040 --> 00:26:17,040
Speaker 1: the O two's as well as the right headlight. What's

488
00:26:17,080 --> 00:26:20,720
Speaker 1: telling what's telling you that? Now? What's telling you that

489
00:26:21,440 --> 00:26:24,199
Speaker 1: the fuse panel and the ledger on the cover of

490
00:26:24,240 --> 00:26:28,360
Speaker 1: the fuse box in under the driver's side dashboard. That's

491
00:26:28,400 --> 00:26:32,000
Speaker 1: what it said. No, I believe the power distribution. I

492
00:26:32,000 --> 00:26:35,640
Speaker 1: believe that fuses out under the hood. It's under the hood.

493
00:26:35,840 --> 00:26:41,639
Speaker 1: I believes headlights right, So be sure you're in the

494
00:26:41,720 --> 00:26:45,040
Speaker 1: right box. But I would be looking. I The first

495
00:26:45,080 --> 00:26:46,920
Speaker 1: thing I would do is you have a wiring diagram

496
00:26:46,920 --> 00:26:50,160
Speaker 1: for this circuit, Chuck, No, I can download one. Okay,

497
00:26:50,280 --> 00:26:53,320
Speaker 1: download a circuit, and let's start making sure of where

498
00:26:53,320 --> 00:26:56,760
Speaker 1: we're testing and what we're testing. But a few sixteen

499
00:26:56,840 --> 00:26:59,320
Speaker 1: in the in the PDC, which is under the hood

500
00:26:59,320 --> 00:27:04,040
Speaker 1: on that vehicle, is what's going to control this? All right? Um,

501
00:27:04,080 --> 00:27:06,359
Speaker 1: I'd be curious. I don't think the fuse is blown. Well,

502
00:27:06,400 --> 00:27:09,239
Speaker 1: then again, maybe the fuse is blown because you've been

503
00:27:09,240 --> 00:27:11,440
Speaker 1: looking at the wrong fuse. A few sixteen is under

504
00:27:11,440 --> 00:27:13,040
Speaker 1: the hood like I believe it is, and the fuse

505
00:27:13,160 --> 00:27:16,280
Speaker 1: is blown, then I would tell you put a new

506
00:27:16,320 --> 00:27:19,200
Speaker 1: fuse in, unplug all the old two's, and plug them

507
00:27:19,200 --> 00:27:21,760
Speaker 1: in one at a time, see which one blows the fuse,

508
00:27:23,160 --> 00:27:25,320
Speaker 1: or if you want to get fancy and use a

509
00:27:25,359 --> 00:27:29,200
Speaker 1: resettable circuit breaker, whatever your heart desires. At least then

510
00:27:29,240 --> 00:27:32,040
Speaker 1: you know which circuit is causing the short or which

511
00:27:32,040 --> 00:27:34,640
Speaker 1: sensor is causing the short. Even though they're new, new

512
00:27:34,720 --> 00:27:37,960
Speaker 1: doesn't mean good, YadA yadda ya. All right, Well, yeah

513
00:27:38,040 --> 00:27:40,919
Speaker 1: I do. But what I'm saying is, as as an

514
00:27:41,160 --> 00:27:44,159
Speaker 1: electrician my trade, I know that in place of the

515
00:27:44,280 --> 00:27:46,879
Speaker 1: fuse you can put a filament such as a light bulb,

516
00:27:47,200 --> 00:27:48,960
Speaker 1: and when a light bulb goes out, you know you've

517
00:27:48,960 --> 00:27:51,920
Speaker 1: cleared your short. Yeah, and you can do that too. Um,

518
00:27:52,000 --> 00:27:53,679
Speaker 1: you can do that too. Like I said, however, you

519
00:27:53,720 --> 00:27:57,120
Speaker 1: want to know when the circuit status has changed. That's

520
00:27:57,160 --> 00:28:00,760
Speaker 1: fine now, my guests, My final answer on this issue

521
00:28:01,320 --> 00:28:03,399
Speaker 1: is do you know of such a history with this

522
00:28:03,520 --> 00:28:07,600
Speaker 1: particular vehicle and era having such a problem. Yeah, they

523
00:28:07,600 --> 00:28:11,480
Speaker 1: do have. They do have wiring harness issues. Um. Usually

524
00:28:11,760 --> 00:28:14,800
Speaker 1: usually it's well, it depends I've seen it. I've seen

525
00:28:14,840 --> 00:28:16,600
Speaker 1: it in all of them. That's why I say you

526
00:28:16,600 --> 00:28:19,080
Speaker 1: have to go through all three or four censors, depending

527
00:28:19,160 --> 00:28:24,080
Speaker 1: upon what it has. UM. Usually it's the rear road too,

528
00:28:24,520 --> 00:28:27,480
Speaker 1: either melted on the exhaust pipe or the rubs. One

529
00:28:27,520 --> 00:28:30,119
Speaker 1: of them rubs the wire on the cylinder head in

530
00:28:30,160 --> 00:28:33,359
Speaker 1: the left rear corner. Okay, all right, so take a

531
00:28:33,400 --> 00:28:35,640
Speaker 1: look at those because the way the harnesses are brought

532
00:28:35,720 --> 00:28:38,520
Speaker 1: up and around. Okay, awesome, I can do that. So

533
00:28:38,600 --> 00:28:42,280
Speaker 1: my last issue was air codes is a seventeen fifty

534
00:28:42,360 --> 00:28:45,440
Speaker 1: six which tells me the government pressure is not at

535
00:28:45,440 --> 00:28:50,960
Speaker 1: fifteen to right. That's inside. That's this is a transpault. Now, yes, sir.

536
00:28:51,120 --> 00:28:54,400
Speaker 1: So what I see in the issue, the drives fine.

537
00:28:54,840 --> 00:28:57,640
Speaker 1: It seems to shift fine. In said, when I come

538
00:28:57,640 --> 00:29:01,440
Speaker 1: now to a traffic light and sit, it'll finally sunk

539
00:29:01,520 --> 00:29:04,040
Speaker 1: in the first gear. Sunk is that a word? But anyway,

540
00:29:04,400 --> 00:29:06,960
Speaker 1: it'll finally sunk back down into first gear, maybe after

541
00:29:07,000 --> 00:29:09,239
Speaker 1: about ten seconds of the city. All right, I'll tell

542
00:29:09,240 --> 00:29:11,160
Speaker 1: you what chuck. Sit tight. We ran a little long.

543
00:29:11,440 --> 00:29:13,040
Speaker 1: Let me pull over, take a pause. We'll come back

544
00:29:13,080 --> 00:29:14,760
Speaker 1: to you right after this. M. Mornini and the car

545
00:29:14,840 --> 00:29:43,920
Speaker 1: Doctor don't go away and that was problem. Welcome back

546
00:29:44,080 --> 00:29:48,360
Speaker 1: the car doctorates by five six zero seven number. Give

547
00:29:48,440 --> 00:29:50,080
Speaker 1: us a call, leave a message. If we're not on

548
00:29:50,120 --> 00:29:52,080
Speaker 1: the ear and fast Harry, we'll call you back. We're

549
00:29:52,080 --> 00:29:54,040
Speaker 1: on the line with Chuck and Katie Texas. Chuck, you're

550
00:29:54,040 --> 00:29:58,200
Speaker 1: still there dealing with the seventeen fifty six, which is

551
00:29:58,400 --> 00:30:02,080
Speaker 1: governor pressure control issues on this Oh four, geep, Grand Cherokee.

552
00:30:02,600 --> 00:30:07,440
Speaker 1: So you've done what to diagnose it? Now? Actually I've

553
00:30:08,760 --> 00:30:12,600
Speaker 1: I believe you like I do religion. But I've learned

554
00:30:12,600 --> 00:30:15,680
Speaker 1: a lot through YouTube and I actually see this guy

555
00:30:15,920 --> 00:30:18,040
Speaker 1: do it, and to me, it looks like the pizza cake.

556
00:30:18,160 --> 00:30:20,760
Speaker 1: It's just the solenoid mounted on a plate at the

557
00:30:20,760 --> 00:30:23,760
Speaker 1: bottom of the transmission behind the filter, and it's sending

558
00:30:23,840 --> 00:30:27,400
Speaker 1: unit and selnoid swap out. Yep. If you can drop

559
00:30:27,400 --> 00:30:31,000
Speaker 1: a transpen and remove a filter, you should be coordinated

560
00:30:31,120 --> 00:30:33,880
Speaker 1: enough to change the solenoid. Just just keep in mind

561
00:30:34,520 --> 00:30:37,600
Speaker 1: that it's not an uncommon practice to change both the

562
00:30:37,640 --> 00:30:40,840
Speaker 1: solenoid and the pressure center at the same time. Correct.

563
00:30:40,920 --> 00:30:43,800
Speaker 1: I will do so, But I guess my last question wrong.

564
00:30:43,880 --> 00:30:45,520
Speaker 1: I'll let you go, and you've been great and taking

565
00:30:45,520 --> 00:30:49,000
Speaker 1: my call is did when this issue with the two centers?

566
00:30:49,120 --> 00:30:54,120
Speaker 1: Is there something that can cause for fuel economy? Oh? Absolutely, okay,

567
00:30:54,120 --> 00:30:56,840
Speaker 1: because I noticed the same kind of stuck like milkshakes

568
00:30:56,920 --> 00:30:59,520
Speaker 1: and I think it's only getting about fifteen miles of

569
00:30:59,560 --> 00:31:01,959
Speaker 1: the game. Well, I don't know that it's gonna get

570
00:31:02,000 --> 00:31:03,800
Speaker 1: a whole lot better than that, chuck, But you've got

571
00:31:03,920 --> 00:31:07,719
Speaker 1: enough drive ability stuff going on here that until you

572
00:31:07,800 --> 00:31:11,280
Speaker 1: get it resolved, until all the monitors have run, until

573
00:31:12,000 --> 00:31:14,240
Speaker 1: you know, no more fault codes, until the trans is

574
00:31:14,280 --> 00:31:17,160
Speaker 1: operating properly, I wouldn't even be I wouldn't even be

575
00:31:17,240 --> 00:31:20,440
Speaker 1: thinking about, you know, fuel economy for that matter. I

576
00:31:20,440 --> 00:31:23,120
Speaker 1: really wouldn't be driving it that much until it was

577
00:31:23,160 --> 00:31:27,920
Speaker 1: all resolved because you could be hurting something long term.

578
00:31:27,960 --> 00:31:30,000
Speaker 1: So I would say, you know, let's take it one

579
00:31:30,000 --> 00:31:32,040
Speaker 1: step at a time, and then just as a follow up,

580
00:31:32,160 --> 00:31:34,640
Speaker 1: I haven't had the experience directly, but it's been a

581
00:31:34,640 --> 00:31:37,120
Speaker 1: while since I've looked at a wiring diagram for this

582
00:31:37,200 --> 00:31:40,480
Speaker 1: particular problem. I don't think there is, but I wonder

583
00:31:40,480 --> 00:31:42,440
Speaker 1: if there's a connection between the O twos and the

584
00:31:42,560 --> 00:31:46,160
Speaker 1: and the governor control. You know, Chrysler runs a lot

585
00:31:46,240 --> 00:31:50,800
Speaker 1: of um redundant five vault grounds I'm sorry, five vault

586
00:31:50,880 --> 00:31:55,320
Speaker 1: feeds power, So you know, is there anything that's powering

587
00:31:55,400 --> 00:31:57,600
Speaker 1: up any of the O two is involved in governor

588
00:31:57,640 --> 00:32:01,760
Speaker 1: pressure control? Probably not, but just to be safe, I

589
00:32:01,760 --> 00:32:03,880
Speaker 1: would look at a wiring diagram and and and just

590
00:32:04,080 --> 00:32:08,600
Speaker 1: you know, see where I'm going today today more than ever,

591
00:32:09,600 --> 00:32:14,000
Speaker 1: Go ahead, go ahead. You start like it's causing it

592
00:32:14,080 --> 00:32:17,000
Speaker 1: to start voltage for the governor pressure, Well, it could

593
00:32:17,000 --> 00:32:18,680
Speaker 1: be doing that. It could be doing a lot of things.

594
00:32:18,760 --> 00:32:21,160
Speaker 1: For for the way this is reacting. You know, you've

595
00:32:21,160 --> 00:32:23,720
Speaker 1: got to fix. Fix what's broken, go onto the next thing,

596
00:32:23,840 --> 00:32:27,000
Speaker 1: I guess is my point. And you know, one of

597
00:32:27,040 --> 00:32:29,320
Speaker 1: the things I've seen over the years, I've seen Chrysler

598
00:32:29,360 --> 00:32:32,520
Speaker 1: do some very strange things with regards to wiring. And

599
00:32:32,920 --> 00:32:36,760
Speaker 1: Chrysler like all manufacturers today, you know what, I've got

600
00:32:36,760 --> 00:32:40,040
Speaker 1: a wiring problem. If you were to stop by the shop,

601
00:32:40,080 --> 00:32:42,400
Speaker 1: you'll see on my work bench, you know there's an

602
00:32:42,400 --> 00:32:45,720
Speaker 1: open spot. I sit down or I'll stand. I print

603
00:32:45,800 --> 00:32:48,400
Speaker 1: out all the wiring diagrams. I've got colored markers. I

604
00:32:48,440 --> 00:32:51,600
Speaker 1: start this circuit, this circuit, this circuit, all X out

605
00:32:51,640 --> 00:32:54,040
Speaker 1: the ones I don't care about, but you know, tries

606
00:32:54,120 --> 00:32:55,880
Speaker 1: to narrow it down into the portion of the car

607
00:32:55,920 --> 00:32:58,240
Speaker 1: I'm working on, and it helps me eliminate and a

608
00:32:58,320 --> 00:33:01,760
Speaker 1: lot of times I found, you know, to dissimilar codes

609
00:33:01,800 --> 00:33:04,920
Speaker 1: that weren't dissimilar all of a sudden, they kind of

610

631
00:34:25,440 --> 00:34:28,000
Speaker 1: for you. We sort of overorder T shirts. Tom tells me,

632
00:34:28,360 --> 00:34:31,480
Speaker 1: I'm not sure who made that mistake, but um, anyway, Uh,

633
00:34:31,600 --> 00:34:34,439
Speaker 1: when a T shirt ask a question, learn something about

634
00:34:34,480 --> 00:34:36,880
Speaker 1: your car? What's better than that? Speaking of better than that?

635
00:34:37,160 --> 00:34:41,479
Speaker 1: Real quick comment, Um, recent article talking about synthetic motor

636
00:34:41,520 --> 00:34:45,440
Speaker 1: oil and better than conventional and uh, some controversy over it.

637
00:34:46,040 --> 00:34:48,920
Speaker 1: And you know, whenever I get into a controversy dealing

638
00:34:48,920 --> 00:34:50,920
Speaker 1: with a car in terms of what's the right answer,

639
00:34:50,920 --> 00:34:53,359
Speaker 1: what's the wrong answer? I always come back to square one,

640
00:34:53,440 --> 00:34:56,640
Speaker 1: base one and look at the facts. And I think

641
00:34:56,760 --> 00:35:00,120
Speaker 1: probably one of the best places to find information and

642
00:35:00,160 --> 00:35:02,440
Speaker 1: about synthetic motor oil is none other than the pens

643
00:35:02,440 --> 00:35:05,280
Speaker 1: oil site. Get out to pens oil dot com, scroll

644
00:35:05,360 --> 00:35:08,279
Speaker 1: down the bottom of the page and you'll see a

645
00:35:08,360 --> 00:35:14,239
Speaker 1: conversation there about synthetic oil myths and facts, and there's

646
00:35:14,239 --> 00:35:18,160
Speaker 1: an article titled about trading up to synthetic. Read that,

647
00:35:18,680 --> 00:35:21,440
Speaker 1: especially the part about why it is important to use

648
00:35:21,440 --> 00:35:24,520
Speaker 1: a synthetic oil that cleans because they really put it

649
00:35:24,520 --> 00:35:27,440
Speaker 1: into a context that you can understand and relate to

650
00:35:28,080 --> 00:35:31,640
Speaker 1: at a very simple level. And keep in mind that

651
00:35:31,760 --> 00:35:36,080
Speaker 1: synthetic motor oil is clearly the way of the future.

652
00:35:36,520 --> 00:35:38,480
Speaker 1: As we put more and more demands on cars today.

653
00:35:38,520 --> 00:35:40,680
Speaker 1: You know, motor oil used to just clean and lubricate.

654
00:35:41,160 --> 00:35:45,000
Speaker 1: Now it controls actuators. It protects engines over such a

655
00:35:45,080 --> 00:35:49,400
Speaker 1: varying degree of temperature and operating conditions that I often

656
00:35:49,400 --> 00:35:52,239
Speaker 1: cringe when I think about not using synthetics. But you

657
00:35:52,280 --> 00:35:54,120
