So I gotta tell you this 20 00:01:13,880 --> 00:01:15,840 Speaker 1: story all right, because I can talk to you guys right, 21 00:01:15,880 --> 00:01:20,039 Speaker 1: we're like family. So Danny, my my young technician, young 22 00:01:20,080 --> 00:01:23,800 Speaker 1: he's with me twelve years now, and um, he's got 23 00:01:23,840 --> 00:01:25,840 Speaker 1: a buddy who's opening a repair shop on the other 24 00:01:25,880 --> 00:01:28,880 Speaker 1: side of the county, and he just found out who 25 00:01:28,959 --> 00:01:32,160 Speaker 1: Danny's boss is. So now he started listening to the show. 26 00:01:33,560 --> 00:01:36,080 Speaker 1: So the first show he listened to was last week 27 00:01:36,920 --> 00:01:40,240 Speaker 1: when he heard me talking about the woman who wanted 28 00:01:40,280 --> 00:01:43,320 Speaker 1: to date Danny that was eighty three years old. Um, 29 00:01:43,360 --> 00:01:45,840 Speaker 1: which just you know and all the things that that entails. 30 00:01:46,480 --> 00:01:49,560 Speaker 1: And uh, he just said he called Danny a Bolok said, 31 00:01:49,560 --> 00:01:51,720 Speaker 1: he goes, he's talking about you. He's talking about you. 32 00:01:51,720 --> 00:01:54,120 Speaker 1: You gotta go to minute four minutes and fifteen, say Dan. 33 00:01:54,200 --> 00:01:56,440 Speaker 1: He's like, yeah, I know, did that really happen? No, 34 00:01:56,600 --> 00:01:58,640 Speaker 1: that's gotta be made up. That can't be really goes, No, 35 00:01:58,760 --> 00:02:01,240 Speaker 1: that really happened. That's that's happens inside a repair shop. 36 00:02:01,280 --> 00:02:03,680 Speaker 1: That's the whole it's like a general store kind of 37 00:02:03,680 --> 00:02:06,760 Speaker 1: a thing. So it's just it's just just kind of funny. 38 00:02:07,080 --> 00:02:09,600 Speaker 1: Curl his toes Hey. Um in the Wall Street Journal 39 00:02:09,639 --> 00:02:12,239 Speaker 1: this week, a couple of things before we start this hour, 40 00:02:12,320 --> 00:02:16,880 Speaker 1: I thought this was interesting and um excens quarterly profits. 41 00:02:17,320 --> 00:02:19,760 Speaker 1: I couldn't get over this right. Uh, and this was 42 00:02:19,800 --> 00:02:23,480 Speaker 1: in yesterday's paper, yesterday's wellstre rejournal. Um, it's actually in 43 00:02:23,520 --> 00:02:26,600 Speaker 1: today's paper, but the article came out July one. Excen 44 00:02:26,639 --> 00:02:30,240 Speaker 1: says quarterly profit could hit eighteen billion dollars. Tom, I 45 00:02:30,240 --> 00:02:33,400 Speaker 1: think we're overpaying for gas. Second quarter profit was boosted 46 00:02:33,400 --> 00:02:35,320 Speaker 1: by the high prices for oil and gas and refined 47 00:02:35,360 --> 00:02:38,200 Speaker 1: products as global supply trails demand. X on Mobile is 48 00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:41,440 Speaker 1: forecasting banners second quarter earnings they could come in as 49 00:02:41,520 --> 00:02:44,919 Speaker 1: high as about eighteen billion dollars, largely on higher oil 50 00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:48,720 Speaker 1: refining margins and rising prices for oil, natural gas, and fuel. 51 00:02:49,080 --> 00:02:51,960 Speaker 1: These projections aren't precise that they need to be and 52 00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:55,520 Speaker 1: exclude certain factors, including specific costs incurred by Exxon, but 53 00:02:55,560 --> 00:02:58,440 Speaker 1: its second quarter profit could be the most lucrative in 54 00:02:58,480 --> 00:03:03,560 Speaker 1: at least twenty five years. This is a family show, 55 00:03:03,639 --> 00:03:05,720 Speaker 1: and I real attempted to cough like they did in 56 00:03:05,720 --> 00:03:08,880 Speaker 1: an animal house. I'm not gonna I'm not gonna read 57 00:03:08,880 --> 00:03:12,000 Speaker 1: anymore of that story. But you know, I understand, I 58 00:03:12,080 --> 00:03:14,400 Speaker 1: know inflation, and you know, but like, oh my god, 59 00:03:14,840 --> 00:03:20,919 Speaker 1: eighteen billion dollars. I'm sure there's an argument there somewhere. Um, 60 00:03:20,960 --> 00:03:22,640 Speaker 1: this is what I really started reading the wall Street 61 00:03:22,680 --> 00:03:26,320 Speaker 1: Journal for GM says unfinished cars to hurt quarterly results. 62 00:03:26,360 --> 00:03:28,840 Speaker 1: General Motors said it couldn't deliver nearly a hundred thousand 63 00:03:28,880 --> 00:03:31,799 Speaker 1: vehicles in the second quarter because it lacked computer chips 64 00:03:31,840 --> 00:03:35,400 Speaker 1: in other parts, underscoring the supply chain problems that continue 65 00:03:35,400 --> 00:03:37,760 Speaker 1: to plague the car business. You know what's interesting about 66 00:03:37,760 --> 00:03:40,240 Speaker 1: this whole car shortage thing, and if you're looking for 67 00:03:40,280 --> 00:03:43,240 Speaker 1: a car, now is the moment. I think the moment's 68 00:03:43,280 --> 00:03:46,560 Speaker 1: passed because it's it's tough, right. The poor dealers are 69 00:03:46,600 --> 00:03:48,800 Speaker 1: getting hammer They just can't get enough cars. And you've 70 00:03:48,800 --> 00:03:51,120 Speaker 1: gotta feel for the dealers because this is their livelihood. 71 00:03:51,160 --> 00:03:55,280 Speaker 1: What are they gonna do? What? What? What my fear is? 72 00:03:56,480 --> 00:03:58,400 Speaker 1: You know, this is where in the summer months now 73 00:03:58,480 --> 00:04:01,520 Speaker 1: July and August is when the fact juries traditionally change 74 00:04:01,600 --> 00:04:04,760 Speaker 1: over from that model year to this model year, and 75 00:04:04,800 --> 00:04:07,760 Speaker 1: there's always leftovers. There's always a pile of cars left 76 00:04:07,800 --> 00:04:11,480 Speaker 1: over end of summer deals, you know, clearance sales, however 77 00:04:11,520 --> 00:04:12,960 Speaker 1: you want to look at it. We're not going to 78 00:04:13,080 --> 00:04:17,000 Speaker 1: see that this year. You know, the dealers are have 79 00:04:17,120 --> 00:04:19,640 Speaker 1: to charge more than the list, and they're doing that 80 00:04:19,680 --> 00:04:22,080 Speaker 1: to survive. I understand that supply and demand. I'm not 81 00:04:22,120 --> 00:04:25,080 Speaker 1: happy about it, but I get it. But I think 82 00:04:25,080 --> 00:04:28,800 Speaker 1: we're gonna see an even bigger drop in automobile sales. 83 00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:31,800 Speaker 1: And the really crazy thing I want to know is 84 00:04:31,880 --> 00:04:34,560 Speaker 1: how long till it comes back? How long before things 85 00:04:34,600 --> 00:04:38,279 Speaker 1: get back to where you know each dealership has a 86 00:04:38,320 --> 00:04:41,160 Speaker 1: two hundred cars supplier that the manufacturers have a three 87 00:04:41,400 --> 00:04:44,280 Speaker 1: day supply of vehicles. Because right now, I don't I 88 00:04:44,279 --> 00:04:46,559 Speaker 1: don't know what it is. It's it can't be very much. 89 00:04:47,120 --> 00:04:49,600 Speaker 1: GM and Friday said at second quarter US sales fell 90 00:04:49,640 --> 00:04:51,760 Speaker 1: about fifteen percent, and sales for the first half of 91 00:04:51,760 --> 00:04:55,000 Speaker 1: the year we're down nearly eighteen percent. It's most profitable 92 00:04:55,080 --> 00:04:57,160 Speaker 1: vehicles failed better over the first half of the year, though, 93 00:04:57,200 --> 00:05:00,279 Speaker 1: including the Chevrolet Silverado. See that when I bought really 94 00:05:00,279 --> 00:05:02,800 Speaker 1: helped him down nine percent. In the Catolic escalated was 95 00:05:02,880 --> 00:05:05,680 Speaker 1: fell four percent. I saw a new Chevy Suburban the 96 00:05:05,680 --> 00:05:08,840 Speaker 1: other day. Customer brought in a suburban that he had 97 00:05:08,920 --> 00:05:12,359 Speaker 1: ordered five months ago. It took him five months to 98 00:05:12,360 --> 00:05:15,680 Speaker 1: get this truck. It is an absolute work of art. 99 00:05:15,800 --> 00:05:19,239 Speaker 1: Is absolutely dropped dead, gorgeous, eighty six thou dollar vehicle 100 00:05:19,320 --> 00:05:22,359 Speaker 1: loaded to the gills. Um bucket seats, the whole nine yards, 101 00:05:22,440 --> 00:05:25,400 Speaker 1: power folding seats. Crazy stuff they're putting in these cars, 102 00:05:25,560 --> 00:05:28,599 Speaker 1: but absolutely gorgeous. The company also said that because the 103 00:05:28,600 --> 00:05:33,000 Speaker 1: delivery issues, expect second quarter knit income to be between 104 00:05:33,279 --> 00:05:36,279 Speaker 1: one point six billion and one point nine billion below 105 00:05:36,320 --> 00:05:38,559 Speaker 1: the estimate of two point four billion. Shares of GM 106 00:05:38,600 --> 00:05:40,600 Speaker 1: fell forty pc in the first half of the year, 107 00:05:41,279 --> 00:05:44,200 Speaker 1: rose one and a half percent the thirty two dollars 108 00:05:44,240 --> 00:05:48,200 Speaker 1: on Friday. So wait a minute. The gas company has 109 00:05:48,240 --> 00:05:51,320 Speaker 1: eighteen billion dollars in second quarter profit, but the car 110 00:05:51,360 --> 00:05:55,080 Speaker 1: company only doesn't even make two billion. What's wrong with 111 00:05:55,120 --> 00:05:57,720 Speaker 1: that picture? That doesn't make any sense to me. Toyota 112 00:05:57,760 --> 00:06:00,159 Speaker 1: posted a nine decrease in sales for the is to 113 00:06:00,160 --> 00:06:02,960 Speaker 1: half of the year compared with sales will likely be 114 00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:05,200 Speaker 1: weaker than expected for the rest of the year. Somebody 115 00:06:05,279 --> 00:06:06,520 Speaker 1: was saying to me, and I don't know if I 116 00:06:06,560 --> 00:06:11,159 Speaker 1: heard it here on the show or um, I was 117 00:06:11,160 --> 00:06:15,839 Speaker 1: out to dinner somewhere that Toyota is projecting. Was it 118 00:06:15,920 --> 00:06:19,040 Speaker 1: fifty thousand less cars a month or fifty thousand less 119 00:06:19,040 --> 00:06:21,719 Speaker 1: cars for the quarter, something like that. So finding a 120 00:06:21,720 --> 00:06:25,920 Speaker 1: Toyota may become a project unto itself. So but um yeah, 121 00:06:25,960 --> 00:06:28,680 Speaker 1: the unerad bill business is a it's a crazy business. Boy, 122 00:06:28,720 --> 00:06:31,480 Speaker 1: it's just uh not doing well right now, Let's kick 123 00:06:31,520 --> 00:06:34,000 Speaker 1: the garage doors open. Let's go over to Mike Buick Park. 124 00:06:34,360 --> 00:06:36,840 Speaker 1: Mike car shuts down while driving. Tell me more about 125 00:06:36,920 --> 00:06:42,960 Speaker 1: this Rondanini and at your servicer, Oh, Marv, I'm sorry. 126 00:06:43,080 --> 00:06:55,200 Speaker 1: There you go? Ut Okay, itself off and sometimes five 127 00:06:55,279 --> 00:06:59,839 Speaker 1: or six minutes then I start. But did you grella? Okay, 128 00:07:00,040 --> 00:07:04,600 Speaker 1: different persons sensors in there, but it doesn't seem to 129 00:07:04,640 --> 00:07:06,560 Speaker 1: make the difference. All right, Now this is a ninety 130 00:07:06,640 --> 00:07:12,120 Speaker 1: two or eighty two more? Okay? When it doesn't start, 131 00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:15,680 Speaker 1: when it when it stalls, do we have the ability 132 00:07:15,800 --> 00:07:18,600 Speaker 1: to you know? Can we look at do we did 133 00:07:18,640 --> 00:07:20,920 Speaker 1: we lose spark? Did we lose injector pulse? What do 134 00:07:20,960 --> 00:07:24,960 Speaker 1: we lose? Or we don't know? Okay? And what sort 135 00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:29,200 Speaker 1: of what sort of parts did we replace at random? Uh? Sensors, 136 00:07:29,240 --> 00:07:37,679 Speaker 1: the temperature sensor, sense and the cam sensor? Okay, sure, 137 00:07:37,800 --> 00:07:44,720 Speaker 1: all right? Did we change a crank sensor? Uh? Okay, 138 00:07:45,040 --> 00:07:48,240 Speaker 1: crank sensor is probably the most likely culprit, but I'd 139 00:07:48,280 --> 00:07:50,880 Speaker 1: like to know what it lost. There are there are 140 00:07:51,040 --> 00:07:54,080 Speaker 1: situations where for example, if it has injector pulse but 141 00:07:54,160 --> 00:07:56,680 Speaker 1: no spark, I would send you in a different direction 142 00:07:56,760 --> 00:07:58,600 Speaker 1: other than if it lost both, and then I would 143 00:07:58,600 --> 00:08:02,160 Speaker 1: send you in an opposite direct action. So let's do this, 144 00:08:02,640 --> 00:08:05,560 Speaker 1: all right, let's diagnose it. Get down to your local 145 00:08:05,600 --> 00:08:07,480 Speaker 1: oroley to parts. I'm sure you've got one up there 146 00:08:07,480 --> 00:08:10,120 Speaker 1: in Wisconsin. Tell them you want to buy. Tell them 147 00:08:10,120 --> 00:08:13,040 Speaker 1: you want to buy a spark tester, all right, spark 148 00:08:13,200 --> 00:08:15,760 Speaker 1: it's it's you're gonna spend I don't think you can 149 00:08:15,840 --> 00:08:18,000 Speaker 1: spend forty bucks on one of these things, all right, 150 00:08:18,040 --> 00:08:20,280 Speaker 1: And they're handy to have. It's gonna be it's the 151 00:08:20,280 --> 00:08:22,520 Speaker 1: ones I typically see. The one I really like is 152 00:08:22,560 --> 00:08:26,280 Speaker 1: it's it's about two inches long, black. It's got an 153 00:08:26,320 --> 00:08:29,200 Speaker 1: alligator clip on one side. It's got a you know, 154 00:08:29,240 --> 00:08:31,760 Speaker 1: the receptacle on the other for the spark plug wire. 155 00:08:31,800 --> 00:08:33,439 Speaker 1: And you're gonna clip it on. You're gonna clip it 156 00:08:33,520 --> 00:08:36,120 Speaker 1: the ground and you can set the gap to wherever 157 00:08:36,160 --> 00:08:39,559 Speaker 1: you want. Make it forty thousands, making fifty thousands, all right. 158 00:08:39,559 --> 00:08:41,560 Speaker 1: And if you want to see what a good spark 159 00:08:41,679 --> 00:08:45,319 Speaker 1: looks like when the car is running, hook up the 160 00:08:45,360 --> 00:08:47,920 Speaker 1: spark tester. It'll make it miss on one cylinder. But 161 00:08:47,960 --> 00:08:49,920 Speaker 1: for the short minute you're gonna do this, it won't matter. 162 00:08:50,320 --> 00:08:53,120 Speaker 1: You know, set the gap to fifty thousands, hook up 163 00:08:53,160 --> 00:08:57,319 Speaker 1: the spark tester. You'll get an angry, orangey blue spark. 164 00:08:57,440 --> 00:08:59,959 Speaker 1: Snappy it'll be, you know, it'll snap, snap, snaps, and 165 00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:02,240 Speaker 1: you'll hear it. Now you know what you're looking for 166 00:09:02,440 --> 00:09:06,080 Speaker 1: when the car dies, all right, do you have spark? 167 00:09:06,440 --> 00:09:07,880 Speaker 1: Pull over to the side of the road, Let things 168 00:09:07,880 --> 00:09:10,360 Speaker 1: cool off so you don't burn your hands, and do 169 00:09:10,400 --> 00:09:13,800 Speaker 1: you have spark? All right? The next thing you could do, 170 00:09:14,120 --> 00:09:16,119 Speaker 1: The next thing you can do while you're at O'reillyota 171 00:09:16,160 --> 00:09:20,000 Speaker 1: parts is by a mechanic stethoscope. Mechanic stethoscope is just 172 00:09:20,120 --> 00:09:22,719 Speaker 1: like it sounds. It's it looks like a stethoscope with 173 00:09:22,760 --> 00:09:24,880 Speaker 1: a long aluminum tube on the end that's got an 174 00:09:24,880 --> 00:09:29,080 Speaker 1: amplifying chamber in it. And while somebody's cranking it, all right, 175 00:09:29,520 --> 00:09:31,480 Speaker 1: do you have injector pulse? And the way we're gonna 176 00:09:31,520 --> 00:09:33,920 Speaker 1: tell that is, uh, you know, take the plast to 177 00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:35,480 Speaker 1: cover off the top of this there is a three 178 00:09:35,520 --> 00:09:39,080 Speaker 1: point eight I imagine, take the cover off, and while 179 00:09:39,120 --> 00:09:41,920 Speaker 1: the engine is running, listen to the injectors you'll hear 180 00:09:42,040 --> 00:09:44,040 Speaker 1: click click click click, click, click click, and if you 181 00:09:44,040 --> 00:09:46,240 Speaker 1: want to hear, you know, for giggles, you want to 182 00:09:46,640 --> 00:09:48,680 Speaker 1: do we have a bad injector. Not that I think 183 00:09:48,679 --> 00:09:50,360 Speaker 1: that's the close of your problem, but it's it's one 184 00:09:50,360 --> 00:09:52,720 Speaker 1: of the things you can do. Listen to every injector. 185 00:09:52,840 --> 00:09:56,080 Speaker 1: Every injector should sound consistent and the same. All right. 186 00:09:56,760 --> 00:09:59,559 Speaker 1: But if if, if this, if this dies and it's 187 00:09:59,600 --> 00:10:02,040 Speaker 1: got no spark and it's got no injector pulse, that's 188 00:10:02,080 --> 00:10:04,600 Speaker 1: one conversation. If it's got spark and no pulse, that's 189 00:10:04,600 --> 00:10:06,960 Speaker 1: a different conversation. If it's got pulse but no spark. 190 00:10:07,360 --> 00:10:08,720 Speaker 1: So you gotta do that and call me back and 191 00:10:08,720 --> 00:10:12,800 Speaker 1: tell me what you're missing. All right. Then last thing, 192 00:10:13,440 --> 00:10:16,000 Speaker 1: last thing. If he can get to the crank sensor 193 00:10:16,040 --> 00:10:19,360 Speaker 1: and the crank sensor has not been changed, all right, 194 00:10:19,760 --> 00:10:23,679 Speaker 1: and this is dangerous. So let me emphasize that you're 195 00:10:23,720 --> 00:10:28,319 Speaker 1: gonna take a long three eighths extension, real long. You're 196 00:10:28,320 --> 00:10:30,480 Speaker 1: gonna see the crank sensor. It's mounted down on the 197 00:10:30,480 --> 00:10:33,600 Speaker 1: passengers side front corner of the engine. It sits behind 198 00:10:33,600 --> 00:10:35,480 Speaker 1: the harmonic balancer. It's a little bit of a chore 199 00:10:35,520 --> 00:10:38,000 Speaker 1: to change if I remember right in ninety two, there 200 00:10:38,040 --> 00:10:41,040 Speaker 1: may even be a special tool required to center the 201 00:10:41,200 --> 00:10:43,679 Speaker 1: censor on the front of the timing cover so that 202 00:10:43,720 --> 00:10:45,680 Speaker 1: you don't hit the veins of the of the balancer 203 00:10:45,679 --> 00:10:49,160 Speaker 1: as it turns around. But what I would do is, 204 00:10:49,360 --> 00:10:51,559 Speaker 1: and you've got to kind of you'll you'll understand when 205 00:10:51,559 --> 00:10:54,360 Speaker 1: you look at it. You've got to get the a 206 00:10:54,480 --> 00:10:57,600 Speaker 1: three eighths extension a long one down so it just 207 00:10:57,720 --> 00:11:00,640 Speaker 1: clears the alternator belt and just comes up behind the balancer. 208 00:11:00,679 --> 00:11:02,400 Speaker 1: Because you don't want anything. The engine is gonna be 209 00:11:02,480 --> 00:11:05,640 Speaker 1: running while you do this. That's the danger part, all right. 210 00:11:06,080 --> 00:11:07,679 Speaker 1: And you want to give that You want to give 211 00:11:07,679 --> 00:11:10,880 Speaker 1: that crank sensor a tap tap tap tap tap, gentle. 212 00:11:11,040 --> 00:11:13,480 Speaker 1: It's plastic. You don't want to break it. If you 213 00:11:13,559 --> 00:11:16,200 Speaker 1: break it, then you have to replace it. But the 214 00:11:16,240 --> 00:11:20,320 Speaker 1: idea is that if road shock or a pothole or 215 00:11:20,360 --> 00:11:23,640 Speaker 1: a bump in the road is strong enough, it could 216 00:11:23,920 --> 00:11:26,880 Speaker 1: jar that sensor and turn it off. We call that 217 00:11:27,000 --> 00:11:31,280 Speaker 1: the tap test. Okay, Um, those are four things you 218 00:11:31,280 --> 00:11:33,920 Speaker 1: can do, four things you can look at. Call me back. 219 00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:38,040 Speaker 1: Just be careful with that extension. You've got moving parts there. 220 00:11:38,080 --> 00:11:40,200 Speaker 1: Like I like all your fingers where they are located? 221 00:11:40,240 --> 00:11:45,600 Speaker 1: All right, sir? What do you mean the manifold control? 222 00:11:48,520 --> 00:11:50,240 Speaker 1: Hang on one second, let me pull over mark. When 223 00:11:50,240 --> 00:11:59,960 Speaker 1: I come back, we'll talk about zero zero. Don't go away. 224 00:12:02,160 --> 00:12:04,160 Speaker 1: Vehicle not taking you where you want to go? Well, 225 00:12:04,200 --> 00:12:06,640 Speaker 1: call Ron. He's the expert at making your vehicle take 226 00:12:06,679 --> 00:12:10,200 Speaker 1: you where you needed. Five five five zero nine zero 227 00:12:10,320 --> 00:12:13,360 Speaker 1: zero And now back to rod Mar if you're still there, 228 00:12:14,960 --> 00:12:20,480 Speaker 1: So what what was your question? Looking mass? The mass 229 00:12:20,480 --> 00:12:24,520 Speaker 1: air flow sensor? Yeah, listen, what about the fuel pump? 230 00:12:24,760 --> 00:12:26,840 Speaker 1: What about the tail lights? What about the ignition switch? 231 00:12:26,880 --> 00:12:29,880 Speaker 1: Before you go to any other place, Let's look at spark. 232 00:12:29,960 --> 00:12:32,120 Speaker 1: Let's look at fuel all right. We want to know 233 00:12:32,200 --> 00:12:35,560 Speaker 1: spark injector pulse? All right, and let's take a look 234 00:12:35,559 --> 00:12:38,520 Speaker 1: at the crank sensor. Don't don't jump ahead? All right? 235 00:12:38,640 --> 00:12:42,360 Speaker 1: If diagnostic, If diagnostics are thirty steps, you're at step twelve. 236 00:12:42,440 --> 00:12:45,719 Speaker 1: Let's go through one through twelve one. Alright, kiddo, call 237 00:12:45,760 --> 00:12:47,400 Speaker 1: me back next week. Let me know what happens. You're 238 00:12:47,480 --> 00:12:49,920 Speaker 1: very welcome you. Well, let's get over to let's go 239 00:12:49,960 --> 00:12:53,559 Speaker 1: to Bill in Virginia fourteen Chevy Equinox. Bill, Welcome a board, sir, 240 00:12:53,600 --> 00:12:57,719 Speaker 1: How can I help? Well, yeah, we want to Chevy equinoxes. 241 00:12:58,440 --> 00:13:02,600 Speaker 1: And it's good for about minutes. My daughter was running 242 00:13:02,679 --> 00:13:04,360 Speaker 1: back and forth to work, and it was fine when 243 00:13:04,400 --> 00:13:07,120 Speaker 1: she started started on her first extended trip. We get 244 00:13:07,160 --> 00:13:08,880 Speaker 1: to about a half hour and it kicks in the 245 00:13:08,960 --> 00:13:12,600 Speaker 1: limp mode. I've taken it back to the dealer on 246 00:13:12,760 --> 00:13:17,760 Speaker 1: various occasions. They've changed grank cage censor of the sprockets. 247 00:13:17,800 --> 00:13:22,360 Speaker 1: The last indication they did was they did a throttle uh, 248 00:13:22,520 --> 00:13:24,959 Speaker 1: they changed out the throttle body. And then they came 249 00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:27,840 Speaker 1: back and said there's a P S I difference in 250 00:13:27,960 --> 00:13:31,560 Speaker 1: cylinder number two and I need a new engine. Alright, Well, 251 00:13:31,679 --> 00:13:34,360 Speaker 1: back back up a minute for this. This has got 252 00:13:34,360 --> 00:13:37,719 Speaker 1: to be a fourth cylinder, right correct, Okay, sorry, that's 253 00:13:37,720 --> 00:13:40,200 Speaker 1: all right, that's all right. Breathe, it's okay. Let me 254 00:13:40,240 --> 00:13:44,160 Speaker 1: help um. When the check engine light comes on and 255 00:13:44,200 --> 00:13:46,559 Speaker 1: it sets a code, right, because it's it's it's it's 256 00:13:46,600 --> 00:13:48,720 Speaker 1: setting a code in order for going to limp mode. 257 00:13:49,160 --> 00:13:52,320 Speaker 1: What code do they tell you it has? Well, the 258 00:13:52,400 --> 00:13:55,680 Speaker 1: various codes they had, I can't tell you. I'll top 259 00:13:55,760 --> 00:13:58,240 Speaker 1: my head on the paperwork in front of me. The 260 00:13:58,679 --> 00:14:03,200 Speaker 1: dealer has changed all those parts. Well, and now what 261 00:14:03,280 --> 00:14:08,920 Speaker 1: they're coming up. What they're saying that it's just in 262 00:14:08,960 --> 00:14:13,920 Speaker 1: the second cylinder and we need an engine P S 263 00:14:13,960 --> 00:14:17,560 Speaker 1: I on a continuous basis, I'm trying to think how 264 00:14:17,600 --> 00:14:20,360 Speaker 1: to explain this. I think that I think the dealer 265 00:14:20,440 --> 00:14:23,200 Speaker 1: is misdiagnosing this. All right, let me let me cut 266 00:14:23,200 --> 00:14:26,000 Speaker 1: to the chase, all right, just because it has a 267 00:14:26,120 --> 00:14:28,560 Speaker 1: if it has a P zero three forty CAM sensor 268 00:14:28,800 --> 00:14:32,680 Speaker 1: circuit full. If you look at any diagnostic trouble code, 269 00:14:32,680 --> 00:14:35,320 Speaker 1: it usually has the word circuit in it, meaning it's 270 00:14:35,320 --> 00:14:37,960 Speaker 1: it's a circuit if the light bulb is out in 271 00:14:38,000 --> 00:14:39,880 Speaker 1: the house. And if if you could read codes on 272 00:14:39,920 --> 00:14:42,720 Speaker 1: your house and it said P zero one hundred light 273 00:14:42,760 --> 00:14:45,720 Speaker 1: bulb circuit doesn't mean it's the bulb, could be the switch, 274 00:14:45,760 --> 00:14:48,440 Speaker 1: It could be the wiring, right, could be lack of power. 275 00:14:49,120 --> 00:14:51,800 Speaker 1: So for them to you know, and they've answered, they've 276 00:14:51,840 --> 00:14:54,640 Speaker 1: answered their own question, and they've proved my point. They've 277 00:14:54,680 --> 00:14:57,760 Speaker 1: followed the codes, they've changed whatever the code is for 278 00:14:58,600 --> 00:15:02,000 Speaker 1: CAM sensor, crank, sensor intake air or whatever it is, 279 00:15:02,400 --> 00:15:05,520 Speaker 1: and they still haven't fixed the problem, meaning it's somewhere else. 280 00:15:06,400 --> 00:15:09,640 Speaker 1: I need a I need and you need a mechanical 281 00:15:09,720 --> 00:15:12,720 Speaker 1: explanation of how if one cylinder is and if I 282 00:15:12,800 --> 00:15:16,480 Speaker 1: understand this correctly, if one cylinder s I and the 283 00:15:16,560 --> 00:15:20,240 Speaker 1: next cylinder is a hundred and sixty, is that what 284 00:15:20,280 --> 00:15:25,320 Speaker 1: they're saying, twenty pound difference, A twenty pound difference between 285 00:15:25,360 --> 00:15:28,600 Speaker 1: two cylinders, that engine will still run. You need a 286 00:15:28,600 --> 00:15:31,920 Speaker 1: minimum of a P s I to have combustion. Alright, 287 00:15:32,000 --> 00:15:35,440 Speaker 1: you're well above the mark, assuming it's not at a minimum. 288 00:15:35,480 --> 00:15:38,760 Speaker 1: Not to mention if we had low compression. If we 289 00:15:38,800 --> 00:15:42,800 Speaker 1: had low compression, that would affect engine operation to the 290 00:15:42,800 --> 00:15:46,400 Speaker 1: point of putting it in limp mode, which I don't 291 00:15:46,400 --> 00:15:49,560 Speaker 1: think we will. And do you should see a misfireful, 292 00:15:49,640 --> 00:15:51,480 Speaker 1: They should be coming back and telling you it's reporting 293 00:15:51,480 --> 00:15:55,160 Speaker 1: a misfire on cylinder two three four something like that. 294 00:15:56,560 --> 00:15:58,840 Speaker 1: It doesn't sound like a great diagnosis, Bill, I gotta 295 00:15:58,880 --> 00:16:01,360 Speaker 1: tell you, I think they're I think they're missing the 296 00:16:01,400 --> 00:16:05,520 Speaker 1: mark here somewhere. Uh you need But you're not that 297 00:16:05,640 --> 00:16:09,520 Speaker 1: familiar with these engines that well, that's why I was calling. 298 00:16:09,800 --> 00:16:15,200 Speaker 1: You're my second opinion, Um, are these guys you're regular mechanic? Well, 299 00:16:15,240 --> 00:16:18,360 Speaker 1: there were a Chevy dealer up here in Newport news, okay, 300 00:16:18,400 --> 00:16:21,080 Speaker 1: And are they where you bought the car from? Now 301 00:16:21,080 --> 00:16:25,920 Speaker 1: we've ought to use in uh in Hampton, but that 302 00:16:26,040 --> 00:16:29,240 Speaker 1: was the closest Chevy dealer that that was available, and 303 00:16:29,240 --> 00:16:31,840 Speaker 1: that we took it up to them. Right? How many 304 00:16:31,840 --> 00:16:36,200 Speaker 1: miles around this? About a hundred and thirty somewhere in 305 00:16:36,200 --> 00:16:39,280 Speaker 1: that range. I don't. Yeah, I think I think you 306 00:16:39,320 --> 00:16:40,840 Speaker 1: got to get a second opinion, or I think you 307 00:16:40,880 --> 00:16:42,120 Speaker 1: got to go and have a heart to heart with 308 00:16:42,120 --> 00:16:46,560 Speaker 1: the guy you know, explained to me and listen, it's 309 00:16:46,600 --> 00:16:49,280 Speaker 1: it's not rocket science. I don't I don't care if 310 00:16:49,360 --> 00:16:51,800 Speaker 1: you are. And I'm not picking on accountants, but I'm 311 00:16:51,800 --> 00:16:53,680 Speaker 1: trying to think of something as far removed from water 312 00:16:53,720 --> 00:16:55,440 Speaker 1: repair as I possibly can. I don't care if you're 313 00:16:55,440 --> 00:16:57,600 Speaker 1: an account and you've got a mechanical problem with your car. 314 00:16:57,840 --> 00:17:02,080 Speaker 1: Common sense is common sense? Right? If if the specification 315 00:17:02,280 --> 00:17:05,439 Speaker 1: is a D and fifty pounds and one cylinder is 316 00:17:05,440 --> 00:17:08,080 Speaker 1: one fifty and the other cylinder is one thirty, is 317 00:17:08,119 --> 00:17:10,720 Speaker 1: that a sign of a problem. Yeah? Is it a 318 00:17:10,760 --> 00:17:12,600 Speaker 1: sign of something that's gonna put it in limp mode? 319 00:17:12,760 --> 00:17:14,560 Speaker 1: I don't know what's the computer telling me? What's the 320 00:17:14,600 --> 00:17:17,560 Speaker 1: computer picking on a computer isn't gonna set a fault 321 00:17:17,600 --> 00:17:21,399 Speaker 1: code for It's not gonna set a CAM sensor fault 322 00:17:21,440 --> 00:17:25,280 Speaker 1: code for a twenty pound difference of cylinder compression. I 323 00:17:25,320 --> 00:17:27,720 Speaker 1: don't I don't see the laws of physics how that 324 00:17:27,720 --> 00:17:30,199 Speaker 1: would come out to be. It would set a misfire, 325 00:17:30,600 --> 00:17:32,479 Speaker 1: It could maybe make it stumble, It could maybe give 326 00:17:32,520 --> 00:17:37,000 Speaker 1: it a lower fuel economy issue. But you know, if 327 00:17:37,040 --> 00:17:38,440 Speaker 1: you really want to catch him in the act to 328 00:17:38,480 --> 00:17:40,359 Speaker 1: ask him, is putting an engine in this car gonna 329 00:17:40,400 --> 00:17:43,280 Speaker 1: fix my problem? And see what kind of an answer 330 00:17:43,320 --> 00:17:47,600 Speaker 1: you get? Okay, Because I'm thinking along the lines, is 331 00:17:47,680 --> 00:17:52,920 Speaker 1: once everything warms up, something a circuit or something that's 332 00:17:52,960 --> 00:17:58,159 Speaker 1: going on, right, that's exactly right, because why doesn't it happen? 333 00:17:58,560 --> 00:18:01,160 Speaker 1: Why doesn't it happen in the first fifteen twenty minutes? 334 00:18:01,200 --> 00:18:04,680 Speaker 1: Why is it something gets hot? And that's my point. 335 00:18:04,960 --> 00:18:06,920 Speaker 1: I think you need another diagnosis. I think it's either 336 00:18:06,960 --> 00:18:08,840 Speaker 1: find another dealer. You gotta go into this one and 337 00:18:08,880 --> 00:18:11,199 Speaker 1: talk to the service manager and have that cup of 338 00:18:11,240 --> 00:18:13,879 Speaker 1: coffee conversation and say, look, I bought the product.

Welcome aboard, sir. 356 00:19:19,000 --> 00:19:23,359 Speaker 1: How can I help? Hey? UM, my wife's car about 357 00:19:23,880 --> 00:19:26,679 Speaker 1: oh two or three years ago suddenly started, you know, 358 00:19:26,760 --> 00:19:28,520 Speaker 1: beeping and flashing in the lights. And we found that 359 00:19:28,600 --> 00:19:31,960 Speaker 1: it was randomly locking and unlocking itself for no reason. 360 00:19:32,920 --> 00:19:36,040 Speaker 1: And then um, and she she had lost the set 361 00:19:36,040 --> 00:19:37,440 Speaker 1: of keys. So she thought it was in the couch, 362 00:19:37,480 --> 00:19:39,480 Speaker 1: but we've moved since then and wasn't in the couch, 363 00:19:39,520 --> 00:19:42,320 Speaker 1: so we never found the keys, and it's still it 364 00:19:42,640 --> 00:19:45,320 Speaker 1: was still doing it after that UM and then all 365 00:19:45,359 --> 00:19:48,320 Speaker 1: of a sudden the doors started opening and closing. So 366 00:19:48,400 --> 00:19:51,960 Speaker 1: I had reconfigured it so that it um it wouldn't beep, 367 00:19:52,359 --> 00:19:54,119 Speaker 1: and then the doors started opening closing, and so I 368 00:19:54,160 --> 00:19:56,919 Speaker 1: turned the electric doors off. But I still like to 369 00:19:56,920 --> 00:19:59,440 Speaker 1: know what's the problem. I think her lost set of 370 00:19:59,520 --> 00:20:03,119 Speaker 1: keys are in the a car. Toyota's have. Toyotas have 371 00:20:03,160 --> 00:20:06,480 Speaker 1: a programming requirement that if you were to if you 372 00:20:06,600 --> 00:20:11,080 Speaker 1: both carried a key a fob, and one of you 373 00:20:11,160 --> 00:20:13,919 Speaker 1: lift your fob in the vehicle, it will not allow 374 00:20:14,000 --> 00:20:15,879 Speaker 1: you to lock the car, and it will start to 375 00:20:15,920 --> 00:20:18,920 Speaker 1: beat on a continuous basis at random, and it's gonna 376 00:20:18,960 --> 00:20:21,480 Speaker 1: do funny things. And then depending upon where it is, 377 00:20:21,920 --> 00:20:24,000 Speaker 1: if it's stuffed between a seat cushion, or if it's 378 00:20:24,000 --> 00:20:26,480 Speaker 1: down on the floor, or if it's wherever it might be, 379 00:20:26,560 --> 00:20:29,240 Speaker 1: if the buttons in the right spot it gets pushed on, 380 00:20:29,320 --> 00:20:31,280 Speaker 1: all sorts of funny things are gonna happen to it. 381 00:20:31,720 --> 00:20:34,320 Speaker 1: We had a we had a customers car years ago, 382 00:20:34,560 --> 00:20:36,880 Speaker 1: and I was sitting here just now trying to think 383 00:20:36,880 --> 00:20:38,280 Speaker 1: of her name, and it's gonna come to me in 384 00:20:38,280 --> 00:20:43,040 Speaker 1: a minute that she left. You know, whenever we left 385 00:20:43,080 --> 00:20:45,000 Speaker 1: cars out for the night, we would lock the car up, 386 00:20:45,040 --> 00:20:48,240 Speaker 1: we would leave the keys under the mat. Well, one 387 00:20:48,280 --> 00:20:50,320 Speaker 1: time she didn't pick the key up from under the mat, 388 00:20:50,320 --> 00:20:53,280 Speaker 1: and she came by about seven eight months later with 389 00:20:53,320 --> 00:20:57,159 Speaker 1: the complaint that the doors would lock and unlocked at random, 390 00:20:57,200 --> 00:20:59,560 Speaker 1: and we went through the whole car, couldn't figure it out. Finally, 391 00:20:59,640 --> 00:21:01,280 Speaker 1: I said, you know what if I lifted up the 392 00:21:01,359 --> 00:21:03,480 Speaker 1: driver's mat and it was right in the spot where 393 00:21:03,520 --> 00:21:06,240 Speaker 1: her heel would be as she's operating the gas pedal 394 00:21:06,240 --> 00:21:08,119 Speaker 1: and she accelerated, she pushed on the button and she 395 00:21:08,160 --> 00:21:09,399 Speaker 1: litter off. She would they go off the button and 396 00:21:09,440 --> 00:21:12,520 Speaker 1: she accelerated, she pushed on the button. Key fobs are 397 00:21:12,560 --> 00:21:16,760 Speaker 1: funny things, man, I would you know, I would really 398 00:21:16,800 --> 00:21:19,120 Speaker 1: be curious if you could duplicate the condition and get 399 00:21:19,119 --> 00:21:21,480 Speaker 1: it to act up. If you had a scan tool 400 00:21:21,520 --> 00:21:23,960 Speaker 1: hooked up and you're looking at the BCM in a Toyota, 401 00:21:24,280 --> 00:21:26,520 Speaker 1: if it would give you a key fob response saying 402 00:21:26,640 --> 00:21:28,600 Speaker 1: you know, we'll tell you key fob active. Yes. No, 403 00:21:28,760 --> 00:21:31,360 Speaker 1: If it says yes, then you know the signal it's 404 00:21:31,400 --> 00:21:34,720 Speaker 1: it's receiving a signal from somewhere, and my bed is 405 00:21:34,760 --> 00:21:37,560 Speaker 1: it's coming from her key fob. So it's somewhere in 406 00:21:37,600 --> 00:21:41,359 Speaker 1: the car. Yeah, Okay, that could explain why it's happened 407 00:21:41,400 --> 00:21:44,600 Speaker 1: away from home, right, yep, exactly so, because it's not 408 00:21:44,680 --> 00:21:46,960 Speaker 1: it's not in the couch, it's in the car. It's 409 00:21:47,000 --> 00:21:49,520 Speaker 1: in the car somewhere. If it fell under the seed 410 00:21:49,800 --> 00:21:53,560 Speaker 1: or you know, uh, you know, but it's somewhere in 411 00:21:53,600 --> 00:21:56,119 Speaker 1: the car. Um, are you able to lock? Are you 412 00:21:56,160 --> 00:21:58,600 Speaker 1: able to lock the car using the key fob that 413 00:21:58,680 --> 00:22:03,560 Speaker 1: you have? Um? I believe. So she doesn't have the 414 00:22:03,640 --> 00:22:05,679 Speaker 1: key fob on her on her key chain now, just 415 00:22:05,760 --> 00:22:07,119 Speaker 1: we only have one of them and I left it 416 00:22:07,119 --> 00:22:10,359 Speaker 1: in the house. Okay, so you're manually locking the car, 417 00:22:12,080 --> 00:22:15,840 Speaker 1: you're using the power door locks. Yeah, the either the 418 00:22:15,880 --> 00:22:17,879 Speaker 1: door locks or the key in the door. Right, So 419 00:22:18,000 --> 00:22:20,640 Speaker 1: go take the key fob and try locking the car 420 00:22:20,760 --> 00:22:23,680 Speaker 1: using the key fob, and I bet it beeps, which 421 00:22:23,680 --> 00:22:25,320 Speaker 1: tells you that the other key fob is still in 422 00:22:25,359 --> 00:22:30,960 Speaker 1: the car somewhere. Okay, alright, good, okay, alright, kiddo, thank you. 423 00:22:30,960 --> 00:22:34,359 Speaker 1: You'd be well, you're very welcome. You two, sir, be safe. 424 00:22:35,160 --> 00:22:38,600 Speaker 1: Let's go over and talk. Let's let's go talk to 425 00:22:38,640 --> 00:22:41,840 Speaker 1: Brian in Philadelphia. He's bringing the cheese steaks, right, is 426 00:22:41,840 --> 00:22:45,280 Speaker 1: that what Tom saying? I'll show you the best ones. 427 00:22:45,520 --> 00:22:47,480 Speaker 1: You know, the most famous ones aren't the best. I 428 00:22:47,480 --> 00:22:49,600 Speaker 1: can tell you that. Well I had, I had seen 429 00:22:49,800 --> 00:22:54,480 Speaker 1: what was it diners? Was it diners? Drive ins and dives? Um, 430 00:22:54,520 --> 00:22:56,879 Speaker 1: they went to the guy who's making the Phillies cheese steaks. 431 00:22:56,960 --> 00:22:59,199 Speaker 1: What's the train station in Philly? The Philly it's like 432 00:22:59,240 --> 00:23:03,080 Speaker 1: Grand Century Terminal. Yeah. Um, supposedly that's the best cheese 433 00:23:03,119 --> 00:23:05,320 Speaker 1: steaks in Philadelphia. I don't know if that's true. Well, 434 00:23:05,480 --> 00:23:08,480 Speaker 1: you know, if you read the polls in Philip your magazine. UM, 435 00:23:08,520 --> 00:23:11,360 Speaker 1: I have different opinions, but you know it's like I said, 436 00:23:11,400 --> 00:23:15,159 Speaker 1: it's very individual local flavors and most poles or you know, 437 00:23:16,080 --> 00:23:21,080 Speaker 1: in line with what I think. Um, anyway, I have 438 00:23:21,119 --> 00:23:24,919 Speaker 1: a two thousand, seventeen Ford Fusion, and I have like 439 00:23:25,040 --> 00:23:29,560 Speaker 1: seventy two thousand, five hundred, and I followed the maintenance 440 00:23:29,560 --> 00:23:31,560 Speaker 1: guy to the t like I do with every car 441 00:23:32,359 --> 00:23:35,159 Speaker 1: and the transfluid like you were talking. I think that 442 00:23:35,359 --> 00:23:40,400 Speaker 1: mentions changing it like a hundred thousand and the what else? 443 00:23:40,440 --> 00:23:43,080 Speaker 1: I think the ang freeze at a hundred thousands. So 444 00:23:43,160 --> 00:23:46,159 Speaker 1: everything is like way up there. And I know you 445 00:23:46,160 --> 00:23:48,719 Speaker 1: said it's better to do it at shorter shorter intervals, 446 00:23:49,280 --> 00:23:53,119 Speaker 1: But how do I judge what the proper shorter shortage 447 00:23:53,160 --> 00:23:57,080 Speaker 1: and shorter interval is. Some of its real world, Brian. 448 00:23:57,200 --> 00:23:58,720 Speaker 1: So some what I'm gonna tell you is just plain 449 00:23:58,760 --> 00:24:00,480 Speaker 1: old real world. That's what I see in the shop 450 00:24:00,480 --> 00:24:03,840 Speaker 1: on a day to day basis. All right, Ford fluid 451 00:24:03,880 --> 00:24:06,199 Speaker 1: for your fusion, that that should be LV fluid if 452 00:24:06,240 --> 00:24:10,840 Speaker 1: I'm not mistaken, correct or yes, sir, so LV fluid. 453 00:24:11,040 --> 00:24:13,639 Speaker 1: I can tell you from experience more than one time. 454 00:24:13,880 --> 00:24:16,480 Speaker 1: I typically see it start to change color around the 455 00:24:16,520 --> 00:24:19,679 Speaker 1: sixty thousand mile mark. I've had I've had occasion with 456 00:24:19,760 --> 00:24:22,679 Speaker 1: Ford product where at the eighty thousand mile mark, not 457 00:24:22,760 --> 00:24:25,280 Speaker 1: every time, but it will start to shutter and act 458 00:24:25,320 --> 00:24:27,199 Speaker 1: like a bad trans and I changed fluid and it 459 00:24:27,240 --> 00:24:30,600 Speaker 1: solves the problem. So for me, if I'm driving a 460 00:24:30,640 --> 00:24:32,840 Speaker 1: Ford with LV product and I'm going to change the 461 00:24:32,880 --> 00:24:35,119 Speaker 1: fluid in the fifty thousand mile mark, it's halfway to 462 00:24:35,200 --> 00:24:36,920 Speaker 1: a hundred. Used to have I used to have a 463 00:24:37,000 --> 00:24:41,240 Speaker 1: two thousand five towers that called for a transmission flush 464 00:24:41,359 --> 00:24:44,440 Speaker 1: or transmission change every thirty thousand. That was my two 465 00:24:44,440 --> 00:24:48,800 Speaker 1: thousand five, and I did it every thirty thousand. But um, 466 00:24:48,880 --> 00:24:50,399 Speaker 1: you know I never had a problem. But that was 467 00:24:50,440 --> 00:24:52,160 Speaker 1: a very short interval. I don't know if Ford did 468 00:24:52,160 --> 00:24:54,240 Speaker 1: that because they had so many trans problems back in 469 00:24:54,240 --> 00:24:56,399 Speaker 1: the day or well that was you know, and I 470 00:24:56,400 --> 00:24:58,040 Speaker 1: did it to a t. I followed it to a t. 471 00:24:58,359 --> 00:25:01,240 Speaker 1: The problem with the the early d these tourist trans 472 00:25:01,320 --> 00:25:04,280 Speaker 1: is wasn't so much fluid or hydraulic action. It was 473 00:25:04,359 --> 00:25:09,080 Speaker 1: the the uh, the aluminum drum for second gear would 474 00:25:09,119 --> 00:25:12,240 Speaker 1: break at the shell and they had planetary problems where 475 00:25:12,240 --> 00:25:15,520 Speaker 1: they were inadequately lubricated and they would burn up, you know. 476 00:25:15,600 --> 00:25:17,520 Speaker 1: But you know, I had no problem. The only problem 477 00:25:17,560 --> 00:25:19,520 Speaker 1: I had that I had a suspension issue. I had 478 00:25:19,520 --> 00:25:21,680 Speaker 1: a bad pothole and messed up the suspension that I 479 00:25:21,800 --> 00:25:24,399 Speaker 1: was taken care of. Otherwise that car, like you know, 480 00:25:25,080 --> 00:25:28,639 Speaker 1: you know, like all my forwards were fine, but you know, 481 00:25:28,680 --> 00:25:30,920 Speaker 1: I followed the manual. But this one, like I said, 482 00:25:31,040 --> 00:25:33,639 Speaker 1: with the trans fluid going a hundred thousand plus. You know, 483 00:25:33,680 --> 00:25:36,080 Speaker 1: we have eat here, you know, and and if the 484 00:25:36,200 --> 00:25:38,600 Speaker 1: fluid looks good, it gets checked every time I'm at 485 00:25:38,600 --> 00:25:41,879 Speaker 1: the shop. But you know, I trust you and I 486 00:25:41,920 --> 00:25:44,520 Speaker 1: trust your experience as far as what you're saying about 487 00:25:44,560 --> 00:25:48,000 Speaker 1: the fluid. Now, what we've done for some people, all right, 488 00:25:48,080 --> 00:25:49,840 Speaker 1: if we want to go the extreme, not that it's 489 00:25:49,840 --> 00:25:51,760 Speaker 1: an extreme, but it's a it's a little more expensive 490 00:25:51,760 --> 00:25:54,399 Speaker 1: than regular Ford fluid is, go out to amaz Oil. 491 00:25:54,800 --> 00:25:57,160 Speaker 1: Go out to amazoil dot com and look at amazoil. 492 00:25:57,200 --> 00:25:59,720 Speaker 1: Gives you a great choice for fluids for everything. But 493 00:25:59,760 --> 00:26:02,679 Speaker 1: I for effect, like they make a synthetic trans fluid 494 00:26:02,720 --> 00:26:06,080 Speaker 1: which resists heat breakdown because heats what kills a transmission. 495 00:26:07,359 --> 00:26:09,719 Speaker 1: For my money, you know, for my money, we can 496 00:26:09,760 --> 00:26:12,600 Speaker 1: make an engine go three thousand miles with reasonable wear 497 00:26:12,640 --> 00:26:16,120 Speaker 1: and care. Right, it's getting a transmission to match that. 498 00:26:16,960 --> 00:26:19,960 Speaker 1: And my niece lives in the Phoenix area trans you know, 499 00:26:20,080 --> 00:26:22,480 Speaker 1: trans is or you know, there's a lot of stress 500 00:26:22,480 --> 00:26:23,840 Speaker 1: in the fluid there because they have a lot of 501 00:26:23,920 --> 00:26:26,600 Speaker 1: days over a hundred hundred and ten. Yeah, so I know, 502 00:26:26,720 --> 00:26:29,919 Speaker 1: like my niece, her mechanics, they stress it because you know, 503 00:26:29,960 --> 00:26:31,919 Speaker 1: like I said, you know, Arizona and the heat, well, 504 00:26:33,000 --> 00:26:35,600 Speaker 1: her inten degrees in Arizona is a hundred and ten 505 00:26:35,600 --> 00:26:39,360 Speaker 1: degrees in Arizona is the wintertime, isn't it. I think 506 00:26:39,359 --> 00:26:40,840 Speaker 1: that's like a cool I think that's like a cool 507 00:26:40,920 --> 00:26:44,640 Speaker 1: day for them. If you don't like it's my one, 508 00:26:45,119 --> 00:26:47,040 Speaker 1: you can cook your steak on the sidewalk. My one 509 00:26:47,119 --> 00:26:49,240 Speaker 1: daughter was going to relocate to Arizona. She went out 510 00:26:49,240 --> 00:26:50,639 Speaker 1: there for the job interview and it was like a 511 00:26:50,680 --> 00:26:53,439 Speaker 1: hundred and twenty seven degrees and the guy goes and 512 00:26:53,480 --> 00:26:55,359 Speaker 1: the guy said to her, but it's a dry heat. 513 00:26:55,440 --> 00:26:57,399 Speaker 1: She said, yeah, but it's still a hundred and twenty 514 00:26:57,440 --> 00:26:59,840 Speaker 1: seven degrees of dry heat. Forget it. I'm not taking 515 00:26:59,880 --> 00:27:02,880 Speaker 1: the fat. I said, Look, I don't care if it's dry. Okay, 516 00:27:02,920 --> 00:27:05,520 Speaker 1: I'm not. I'm not sweaty, but this is hot. It's 517 00:27:05,560 --> 00:27:08,719 Speaker 1: hot hot, it's hot. Um. But anyway, go to Amazoil, 518 00:27:08,760 --> 00:27:10,480 Speaker 1: go to amazoil dot com. They've got all kinds of 519 00:27:10,480 --> 00:27:13,439 Speaker 1: different fluids. They make a really great synthetic trans fluid 520 00:27:13,480 --> 00:27:17,800 Speaker 1: for the Ford applications. And you know that's gonna help 521 00:27:17,840 --> 00:27:20,800 Speaker 1: longevity because it's heat that breaks down the fluid and 522 00:27:20,800 --> 00:27:22,560 Speaker 1: that the fluid is not doing its job, and it's 523 00:27:22,600 --> 00:27:25,760 Speaker 1: creating you know, shift issues and shutter issues that shortens 524 00:27:25,760 --> 00:27:28,000 Speaker 1: the life of the transmission. So I like amaz oil 525 00:27:28,040 --> 00:27:29,639 Speaker 1: for that. They give a lot of and there are 526 00:27:29,640 --> 00:27:31,720 Speaker 1: other products. Some of their other stuff is just that's 527 00:27:31,760 --> 00:27:33,920 Speaker 1: off the charts, how good it is. Amaz oil. Gear 528 00:27:34,000 --> 00:27:35,800 Speaker 1: oil was all I ran in the original hot run 529 00:27:36,119 --> 00:27:40,320 Speaker 1: back in the day. So there's stuff has been around theirs. 530 00:27:40,600 --> 00:27:43,400 Speaker 1: You know, I've been you know luckily. You know, so far, 531 00:27:43,480 --> 00:27:46,440 Speaker 1: so good until you know this point seventy something thousand. 532 00:27:46,680 --> 00:27:48,960 Speaker 1: Like I said, I've I've done everything in the book. 533 00:27:50,000 --> 00:27:52,560 Speaker 1: So but um yeah, I would change the trans fluid. 534 00:27:52,560 --> 00:27:55,520 Speaker 1: I would change it now. Sometimes take the book and 535 00:27:56,520 --> 00:27:58,600 Speaker 1: to your favorite. So if they call forward on a hundred, 536 00:27:58,840 --> 00:28:01,160 Speaker 1: change change it sooner. You can't go wrong with sooner, 537 00:28:01,240 --> 00:28:02,600 Speaker 1: or you're gonna do is spend a little bit more 538 00:28:02,680 --> 00:28:05,679 Speaker 1: money sooner, and you'll probably end up with a vehicle 539 00:28:05,720 --> 00:28:08,080 Speaker 1: that lasts longer. And that's the name of the game. Remember, 540 00:28:08,119 --> 00:28:11,040 Speaker 1: manufacturers aren't trying to sell maintenance. They're trying to sell cars, 541 00:28:11,240 --> 00:28:13,919 Speaker 1: although now they're probably trying to sell maintenance because there 542 00:28:13,920 --> 00:28:16,359 Speaker 1: are no cars to sell. Brian, as always, I enjoyed 543 00:28:16,359 --> 00:28:19,160 Speaker 1: the conversation. You'll be well and one day we'll stop. 544 00:28:19,160 --> 00:28:20,760 Speaker 1: Then we'll get a Philly chee steak, Tom and I 545 00:28:20,960 --> 00:28:23,399 Speaker 1: eight five five five six zero nine zero zero. The 546 00:28:23,400 --> 00:28:29,760 Speaker 1: car doctors coming back right after this. That's not she 547 00:28:29,960 --> 00:28:43,800 Speaker 1: was there. She woke up and the hand that's all. 548 00:28:43,840 --> 00:28:46,440 Speaker 1: Welcome back. Running in the car doccur five five five 549 00:28:46,720 --> 00:28:52,680 Speaker 1: zero nine zero zero. Let's go over to Randy and Georgia. Hey, 550 00:28:52,680 --> 00:28:55,560 Speaker 1: hey guys, Yes, we'll do a great job. I appreciate 551 00:28:55,640 --> 00:29:01,480 Speaker 1: your Hell. I've got csomobile and it's the ninety eight 552 00:29:01,680 --> 00:29:06,640 Speaker 1: Regency brom and it's got three point eight leader engine 553 00:29:06,840 --> 00:29:10,920 Speaker 1: to see engine, and I'm showing a code for I'm 554 00:29:10,920 --> 00:29:13,120 Speaker 1: sorry what I didn't say anything? Go ahead? I think 555 00:29:13,120 --> 00:29:17,280 Speaker 1: you is your radio on, Randy, Randy, No, let me 556 00:29:17,400 --> 00:29:19,480 Speaker 1: let me try to Yeah, there's a little bit of 557 00:29:19,520 --> 00:29:25,280 Speaker 1: back feed there. Yeah that's better. Okay, sorry about that. Um, 558 00:29:26,560 --> 00:29:29,320 Speaker 1: did you catch what what it was? You were about 559 00:29:29,320 --> 00:29:30,600 Speaker 1: to tell me the code, but I didn't get it. 560 00:29:30,600 --> 00:29:33,360 Speaker 1: I didn't get what it was it was. I believe 561 00:29:33,400 --> 00:29:38,200 Speaker 1: it's a sixty three code. It's the thrittle sensor and uh, 562 00:29:38,320 --> 00:29:41,640 Speaker 1: I've been driving it ever since, even though it went 563 00:29:41,680 --> 00:29:44,800 Speaker 1: off for for I don't know, half a year or something, 564 00:29:45,480 --> 00:29:48,480 Speaker 1: and uh, I get bowed with it. I mean it 565 00:29:48,880 --> 00:29:52,400 Speaker 1: rives up and slows down and stuff like that. But 566 00:29:53,600 --> 00:30:00,400 Speaker 1: if drivable until sometimes if you crank it um and 567 00:30:00,480 --> 00:30:02,640 Speaker 1: you don't do it just right, it call cotten. Then 568 00:30:02,680 --> 00:30:04,240 Speaker 1: you won't be able to crank it until it sits 569 00:30:04,280 --> 00:30:06,680 Speaker 1: there for a while. Okay, this is this a rear 570 00:30:06,680 --> 00:30:10,760 Speaker 1: wheel driver or front wheel driver, Randy, front wheel drive? 571 00:30:10,840 --> 00:30:13,960 Speaker 1: All right, I'm wondering if you can bypass that thanks somehow, 572 00:30:14,000 --> 00:30:17,400 Speaker 1: because it's they don't make them anymore, and there's only 573 00:30:17,480 --> 00:30:20,440 Speaker 1: two around here, and there are hundred sixty. Well, a 574 00:30:20,600 --> 00:30:24,880 Speaker 1: coach sixty three is an e g R valve circuit 575 00:30:24,920 --> 00:30:28,000 Speaker 1: full on that particular car. If if we're I D 576 00:30:28,120 --> 00:30:33,360 Speaker 1: in the same vehicle alright, and twenty four where TPS 577 00:30:33,400 --> 00:30:36,160 Speaker 1: faults back in the day, this is a This is 578 00:30:36,200 --> 00:30:42,760 Speaker 1: an injected car, correct injected or carbureted injected, right right, 579 00:30:44,040 --> 00:30:46,840 Speaker 1: So this is an e g R fault. This is 580 00:30:46,880 --> 00:30:49,400 Speaker 1: not I don't know where TPS unless somebody looked it 581 00:30:49,480 --> 00:30:52,160 Speaker 1: up and they've got but you know, this is basically 582 00:30:52,480 --> 00:30:55,440 Speaker 1: the e g R valve is having an issue. And 583 00:30:55,560 --> 00:30:57,840 Speaker 1: my guests would be that it's got some it's either 584 00:30:57,920 --> 00:31:00,640 Speaker 1: restricted passages or there's carbon build up in the valve 585 00:31:00,680 --> 00:31:03,240 Speaker 1: based on its age and mileage, and you know that 586 00:31:03,360 --> 00:31:06,160 Speaker 1: kind of a thing. Um, you know, the fact that 587 00:31:06,200 --> 00:31:09,560 Speaker 1: it's stalling tells me that maybe a chunk of carbon 588 00:31:09,600 --> 00:31:12,160 Speaker 1: every once in a while blocks the valve and prevents 589 00:31:12,160 --> 00:31:14,640 Speaker 1: it from closing. Does it when it stalls, does it 590 00:31:14,760 --> 00:31:17,000 Speaker 1: sort of chuggle? Does it? You know, kind of die 591 00:31:17,240 --> 00:31:21,479 Speaker 1: a slow death and then it restarts. Yeah, it's not 592 00:31:21,560 --> 00:31:26,720 Speaker 1: really stalling. What happens is if you clank it and uh, 593 00:31:26,960 --> 00:31:30,640 Speaker 1: and you don't stay on the starter long enough and 594 00:31:30,720 --> 00:31:34,320 Speaker 1: you let off, then it won't Then you can't restart 595 00:31:34,440 --> 00:31:37,240 Speaker 1: until you let it sit for for quite a few 596 00:31:37,280 --> 00:31:41,560 Speaker 1: hours and then it'll crank. But it doesn't conk out 597 00:31:41,600 --> 00:31:45,280 Speaker 1: on me. It does kind of get the lope and 598 00:31:45,320 --> 00:31:46,760 Speaker 1: a little bit there and you have to give a 599 00:31:46,840 --> 00:31:53,080 Speaker 1: little gas right and then the other times up sixty 600 00:31:53,160 --> 00:31:56,440 Speaker 1: three is an e g R valve circuit fault. So 601 00:31:56,920 --> 00:31:58,280 Speaker 1: you know what you want to do is have your 602 00:31:58,280 --> 00:32:01,280 Speaker 1: mechanics start to diagnose that at and keep in mind 603 00:32:01,360 --> 00:32:04,360 Speaker 1: because of the age and mileage carbon deposits, you know, 604 00:32:04,480 --> 00:32:06,360 Speaker 1: make sure you can still get a gasket for it, 605 00:32:06,360 --> 00:32:08,480 Speaker 1: maybe pop the e g R valve off, look at it, 606 00:32:08,520 --> 00:32:11,600 Speaker 1: clean it. You could you could soak the pental portion 607 00:32:12,280 --> 00:32:14,560 Speaker 1: in some solvent and clean it that way. You could 608 00:32:14,560 --> 00:32:17,640 Speaker 1: also make sure that the passageway leading on the engine 609 00:32:17,680 --> 00:32:20,120 Speaker 1: side is clear and free. There's a couple of things 610 00:32:20,200 --> 00:32:22,120 Speaker 1: you can do to step you know, step one step 611 00:32:22,160 --> 00:32:24,840 Speaker 1: to the diagnosis. But let's be sure we're talking about 612 00:32:24,880 --> 00:32:28,280 Speaker 1: the same thing. So my advice is, let's let's re 613 00:32:28,440 --> 00:32:32,200 Speaker 1: scan this it's e g R whatever it is, and 614 00:32:32,240 --> 00:32:35,800 Speaker 1: then let's uh, let's go about diagnosing that. But that 615 00:32:36,000 --> 00:32:38,400 Speaker 1: is not a throttle position fault. And then when the 616 00:32:38,480 --> 00:32:41,720 Speaker 1: vehicle goes into this you know, crank no start condition, 617 00:32:42,360 --> 00:32:45,640 Speaker 1: like I've told anybody else today in the past, what's 618 00:32:45,680 --> 00:32:48,200 Speaker 1: it missing spark or fuel? You know, do we have 619 00:32:48,240 --> 00:32:51,960 Speaker 1: two separate problems that just you know, it's an older vehicle. Uh, 620 00:32:52,000 --> 00:32:54,000 Speaker 1: you know, never assume that it's related because an e 621 00:32:54,040 --> 00:32:56,320 Speaker 1: g R valve being stuck open, even if it was, 622 00:32:56,720 --> 00:32:59,240 Speaker 1: the vehicle would at least kick and start. It just 623 00:32:59,240 --> 00:33:02,600 Speaker 1: wouldn't idle real well, So let's do those things. Let's 624 00:33:02,600 --> 00:33:04,560 Speaker 1: make sure we've got the right code, and then call 625 00:33:04,640 --> 00:33:07,600 Speaker 1: me back when you have more information. I appreciate the contact. 626 00:33:07,760 --> 00:33:09,680 Speaker 1: Let's let's pull over, take a pause. I'd any of 627 00:33:09,680 --> 00:33:19,080 Speaker 1: the car doctor will be back right after this. Welcome back, 628 00:33:19,280 --> 00:33:21,600 Speaker 1: ran the car doctor. Just winding down the hour here 629 00:33:21,840 --> 00:33:24,000 Speaker 1: um And for Randy and Georgia that just called with 630 00:33:24,040 --> 00:33:26,040 Speaker 1: the eight at Oldsmobile, I should point out Randy, I 631 00:33:26,040 --> 00:33:28,600 Speaker 1: didn't answer this, but if you're still listening, there is 632 00:33:28,640 --> 00:33:31,080 Speaker 1: a very simple test for the throttle position sensor on 633 00:33:31,120 --> 00:33:33,120 Speaker 1: that car. If it does turn out that this is 634 00:33:33,120 --> 00:33:36,320 Speaker 1: a secondary problem. It's just a simple three wire sensor. 635 00:33:36,840 --> 00:33:39,440 Speaker 1: You're gonna you know, one's ground, one's gonna read, one's 636 00:33:39,440 --> 00:33:41,600 Speaker 1: gonna get a five old feed, and the other one. 637 00:33:41,640 --> 00:33:44,200 Speaker 1: You're going to see a low voltage, typically under a 638 00:33:44,280 --> 00:33:46,800 Speaker 1: volt when you're starting out, and then as you open 639 00:33:46,880 --> 00:33:49,200 Speaker 1: the throttle up it'll go up to about four point 640 00:33:49,240 --> 00:33:51,280 Speaker 1: five four point eight vaults. It should be a nice 641 00:33:51,280 --> 00:33:54,840 Speaker 1: clean sweep, best tested with a scope. And uh, you know, 642 00:33:54,880 --> 00:33:57,440 Speaker 1: but I don't know that that's an expensive part and 643 00:33:57,480 --> 00:34:00,520 Speaker 1: that's a rare part. So there's something conv looted about 644 00:34:00,520 --> 00:34:02,200 Speaker 1: the information. We've got to get more of it. But 645 00:34:02,480 --> 00:34:05,840 Speaker 1: yet TPS is throwout. Position sensors can be tested. No, 646 00:34:06,040 --> 00:34:08,799 Speaker 1: they can't be bypassed. They're an essential part to the 647 00:34:08,800 --> 00:34:11,239 Speaker 1: operation of the vehicle. Hey, this comes to us from 648 00:34:11,320 --> 00:34:14,319 Speaker 1: David run on the June eighteenth show. You talked about 649 00:34:14,320 --> 00:34:17,040 Speaker 1: electric car batteries and a dealer, you know, having to 650 00:34:17,040 --> 00:34:19,560 Speaker 1: build a bomb shelter for storage. Yep. Do you think 651 00:34:19,560 --> 00:34:22,239 Speaker 1: insurance companies will start raising rates for leaving them in 652 00:34:22,320 --> 00:34:24,919 Speaker 1: your garage in case of fire? Thanks Dave, great show. 653 00:34:25,520 --> 00:34:27,839 Speaker 1: You know, I don't know you know, David, it's it's 654 00:34:28,600 --> 00:34:31,200 Speaker 1: it's funny. Um. You know, I've told this story a 655 00:34:31,239 --> 00:34:34,200 Speaker 1: couple of times. Now I've seen what lithium does. We 656 00:34:34,200 --> 00:34:37,000 Speaker 1: we've started drilling out tire pressure sensors. When we put 657 00:34:37,000 --> 00:34:38,839 Speaker 1: new ones in vehicles, we drill out the old ones 658 00:34:38,840 --> 00:34:41,880 Speaker 1: to kill the sensor to so there's no confusion, so 659 00:34:41,920 --> 00:34:44,600 Speaker 1: it doesn't see two of the same serial number censor 660 00:34:44,640 --> 00:34:46,160 Speaker 1: while the vehicle is still in the shop and it 661 00:34:46,160 --> 00:34:48,520 Speaker 1: would make a problem, so we can deliver the car. 662 00:34:48,960 --> 00:34:52,800 Speaker 1: And as we drill slowly through these lithium battery TPMs sensors, 663 00:34:53,280 --> 00:34:55,120 Speaker 1: you've got to see the flare up and fire that 664 00:34:55,160 --> 00:34:57,440 Speaker 1: happens from a little battery the size of a watch battery. 665 00:34:57,480 --> 00:34:59,120 Speaker 1: I can't imagine what a car battery is going to 666 00:34:59,200 --> 00:35:02,080 Speaker 1: be like the size of car. So yeah, I gotta 667 00:35:02,080 --> 00:35:04,080 Speaker 1: think everybody's insurance rates. There's gonna be a bunch of 668 00:35:04,080 --> 00:35:07,200 Speaker 1: concerns going forward with this, and I hope they solve it, 669 00:35:07,239 --> 00:35:09,759 Speaker 1: and I hope they solve it real quick. I appreciate 670 00:35:09,840 --> 00:35:12,239 Speaker 1: the letter. Hey, until the next time I'm running any 671 00:35:12,239 --> 00:35:15,200 Speaker 1: in the car doctor reminding you good mechanics aren't expensive, 672 00:35:15,400 --> 00:35:17,000 Speaker 1: they're priceless. Let's see you
