1 00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:02,719 Speaker 1: Being a mechanic has taught me a lot about life too. 2 00:00:03,080 --> 00:00:05,640 Speaker 1: Life is a piece of machinery, and we're all parts 3 00:00:05,640 --> 00:00:08,080 Speaker 1: of it. Some of us are cog wheels, some of 4 00:00:08,119 --> 00:00:11,000 Speaker 1: us are spark plugs, and some of us are just nuts. 5 00:00:11,240 --> 00:00:14,000 Speaker 1: The number five most expensive car to repair in this 6 00:00:14,080 --> 00:00:17,960 Speaker 1: survey Volkswagen Pasade. What does that say about Volkswagen. Volkswagen 7 00:00:18,040 --> 00:00:20,200 Speaker 1: cost more to repair than a BMW in the Mercedes. 8 00:00:20,239 --> 00:00:22,040 Speaker 1: I wonder if that counts for the toe truck. Now 9 00:00:22,040 --> 00:00:25,440 Speaker 1: that I'm a mechanic, I do things that really help people. White, 10 00:00:25,600 --> 00:00:29,000 Speaker 1: I ground your valves and I scraped your carbon. If 11 00:00:29,000 --> 00:00:31,760 Speaker 1: you want me to all adjust your gaskets a gas, 12 00:00:31,920 --> 00:00:34,760 Speaker 1: that's fine. I can eat anything. That Car Doctor, there's 13 00:00:34,800 --> 00:00:36,519 Speaker 1: something that's gonna talk about, but I'll be darned if 14 00:00:36,520 --> 00:00:38,200 Speaker 1: I know what it was. I'll just keep rolling along 15 00:00:38,280 --> 00:00:40,559 Speaker 1: because I've learned sound on radio is very important when 16 00:00:40,560 --> 00:00:43,400 Speaker 1: we keep talking.

Do you ever wonder add 47 00:02:10,240 --> 00:02:12,920 Speaker 1: a little bit of a stumble, that little bit of 48 00:02:12,919 --> 00:02:17,440 Speaker 1: a hesitation, He who hesitates is lost. Well, sometimes you 49 00:02:17,520 --> 00:02:20,040 Speaker 1: lose a whole lot more than just being lost. Two 50 00:02:20,120 --> 00:02:22,600 Speaker 1: thousand eleven, Geep Liberty came into the shop at our 51 00:02:22,639 --> 00:02:27,480 Speaker 1: Automotive about three weeks ago, had a misfire on cylinder 52 00:02:27,639 --> 00:02:31,239 Speaker 1: three P zero three oh three, but it was intermittent, 53 00:02:31,320 --> 00:02:34,640 Speaker 1: It wasn't fair all the time. When I spoke to 54 00:02:34,680 --> 00:02:37,919 Speaker 1: the customer, the conversation was about that it had been 55 00:02:37,919 --> 00:02:41,840 Speaker 1: doing it for a while, but it wasn't a hard failure. 56 00:02:41,880 --> 00:02:44,920 Speaker 1: And then it finally turned the light on and I 57 00:02:44,960 --> 00:02:46,679 Speaker 1: got the cylinder. Yeah it was. It was a P 58 00:02:46,880 --> 00:02:51,560 Speaker 1: zero three oh three misfire on cylinder three. And then 59 00:02:51,600 --> 00:02:55,400 Speaker 1: as fast as the problem was there, it went away 60 00:02:55,800 --> 00:02:58,680 Speaker 1: and I couldn't duplicate it again. And I looked at 61 00:02:58,720 --> 00:03:00,800 Speaker 1: a couple of things. I scope, it's a few things 62 00:03:00,840 --> 00:03:04,560 Speaker 1: just trying to see, because sometimes the scope will show 63 00:03:04,600 --> 00:03:07,080 Speaker 1: you something that you don't feel. It will show you 64 00:03:07,160 --> 00:03:11,240 Speaker 1: the impending failure. Didn't say it, swap the ignition coils 65 00:03:11,280 --> 00:03:15,800 Speaker 1: from cylinder three with cylinder one and sent it on 66 00:03:15,840 --> 00:03:19,320 Speaker 1: its way. A few days later the phone rang it 67 00:03:19,360 --> 00:03:21,320 Speaker 1: was doing it again and hadn't turned on the light 68 00:03:21,360 --> 00:03:24,000 Speaker 1: at that point, and he would get it back into 69 00:03:24,040 --> 00:03:30,560 Speaker 1: me when he could. Sometimes when you could, you're better 70 00:03:30,639 --> 00:03:35,520 Speaker 1: off being earlier rather than later. Two weeks goes by 71 00:03:35,920 --> 00:03:39,400 Speaker 1: lights on runs terrible came into the shop. I've got 72 00:03:39,400 --> 00:03:42,120 Speaker 1: a misfire on cylinder one. I've got a misfire on 73 00:03:42,200 --> 00:03:45,440 Speaker 1: cylinder three which has got interesting and i'll tell you 74 00:03:45,440 --> 00:03:48,160 Speaker 1: about that in a minute. And I've got a random 75 00:03:48,200 --> 00:03:55,560 Speaker 1: multiple misfire P zero three. So I know the coil 76 00:03:55,640 --> 00:03:58,080 Speaker 1: on number three, which is now number one, is clearly 77 00:03:58,120 --> 00:04:01,720 Speaker 1: bad because you know, I've I've got a fault code 78 00:04:01,720 --> 00:04:04,320 Speaker 1: for cylinder one, but I've still I'm still reporting a 79 00:04:04,360 --> 00:04:08,600 Speaker 1: misfire on cylinder three. I'm also reporting a random multiple misfire. 80 00:04:10,440 --> 00:04:12,400 Speaker 1: Started to look at a couple of things, pulled out 81 00:04:12,440 --> 00:04:18,760 Speaker 1: some plugs. I found number four spark plug or number five. Actually, 82 00:04:18,839 --> 00:04:21,159 Speaker 1: I'm sorry number five spark plug middle one on the 83 00:04:21,240 --> 00:04:26,919 Speaker 1: right bank had carbon tracking down the side, and I 84 00:04:26,960 --> 00:04:29,360 Speaker 1: knew that was a miss that wasn't being reported yet, 85 00:04:29,400 --> 00:04:32,440 Speaker 1: but it was about to be pulled out. The six plugs. 86 00:04:32,440 --> 00:04:35,200 Speaker 1: This plugs are supposed to be gapped at forty two 87 00:04:35,279 --> 00:04:38,160 Speaker 1: thousand's they were all close to sixty. They were almost 88 00:04:38,160 --> 00:04:42,839 Speaker 1: twenty thousands over in some cases, so they were beyond 89 00:04:42,880 --> 00:04:46,040 Speaker 1: their limit and that puts an extra strain on the 90 00:04:46,080 --> 00:04:48,560 Speaker 1: ignition system as well as creates the potential for in 91 00:04:48,560 --> 00:04:53,640 Speaker 1: complete combustion, which creates the problems of carbon deposits, and 92 00:04:53,720 --> 00:04:56,600 Speaker 1: the mess goes downhill from there. It definitely doesn't go up. 93 00:04:58,600 --> 00:05:00,880 Speaker 1: So bottom line, yeah, you need a tune up. We're 94 00:05:00,880 --> 00:05:03,200 Speaker 1: gonna do plugs, We're gonna do wires. There's it's a 95 00:05:03,200 --> 00:05:05,280 Speaker 1: it's a funny system. They've got three coils down the 96 00:05:05,360 --> 00:05:07,640 Speaker 1: left side of the motor and then three wires that 97 00:05:07,720 --> 00:05:10,520 Speaker 1: feed the right bank of the motor. So cylinder one 98 00:05:10,640 --> 00:05:18,480 Speaker 1: feed cylinder four, cylinder three feeds cylinder uh uh um 99 00:05:18,800 --> 00:05:21,680 Speaker 1: two and cylinder I'm sorry. Cylinder five is on the 100 00:05:21,720 --> 00:05:23,640 Speaker 1: left side, so it's cylinder for on the right side, 101 00:05:23,800 --> 00:05:29,960 Speaker 1: Cylinder five feed cylinder UM uh two right now U 102 00:05:30,120 --> 00:05:33,880 Speaker 1: two four six six. Bottom line It comes down to 103 00:05:34,720 --> 00:05:37,760 Speaker 1: is that um, actually three and six are together, five 104 00:05:37,800 --> 00:05:39,880 Speaker 1: and I gonna get this right. Three and six are together, 105 00:05:40,360 --> 00:05:46,560 Speaker 1: five and four are together, and one and one and 106 00:05:48,440 --> 00:05:53,279 Speaker 1: yeah are together. Bottom line. It created multiple misfires on 107 00:05:53,360 --> 00:05:56,200 Speaker 1: both banks of the engine. Did the tune, took the 108 00:05:56,240 --> 00:05:58,120 Speaker 1: car for a ride, still had a little bit of 109 00:05:58,120 --> 00:06:02,039 Speaker 1: a stumble, still wasn't quite right, and lo and behold, 110 00:06:02,120 --> 00:06:05,279 Speaker 1: all of a sudden it happened. It was an immediate 111 00:06:05,320 --> 00:06:07,800 Speaker 1: loss of power. Looking at it on a scan tool, 112 00:06:07,839 --> 00:06:10,159 Speaker 1: I was looking at air fuel sensors and you could 113 00:06:10,200 --> 00:06:13,839 Speaker 1: see the right bank downstream O too shut off. It 114 00:06:13,920 --> 00:06:18,200 Speaker 1: just went and flatlined. It died. Brought it back to 115 00:06:18,240 --> 00:06:22,039 Speaker 1: the shop up in the air, looked at a few things. 116 00:06:22,440 --> 00:06:25,200 Speaker 1: Pulled that downstream O two cents around and it was 117 00:06:25,320 --> 00:06:30,599 Speaker 1: physically melted. It was like it looked like a candle 118 00:06:30,680 --> 00:06:35,240 Speaker 1: that had just fallen over. Put it put two centser 119 00:06:35,400 --> 00:06:38,440 Speaker 1: change both the two centsors on the right side and 120 00:06:38,640 --> 00:06:41,599 Speaker 1: just going for uniformity because my suspicion was and my 121 00:06:41,680 --> 00:06:45,400 Speaker 1: suspicion happened the catalytic converter on that right bank. You 122 00:06:45,440 --> 00:06:48,679 Speaker 1: could see the heat blister. That cat had been running hot, 123 00:06:48,800 --> 00:06:51,760 Speaker 1: real hot, and that's why the O two centser melted 124 00:06:51,920 --> 00:06:56,359 Speaker 1: or partially limped out. The O two centsor made no difference. 125 00:06:56,400 --> 00:06:59,080 Speaker 1: It got a it had a signal. Now it was reacting, 126 00:06:59,120 --> 00:07:02,920 Speaker 1: but it wasn't wrecked. The two censors showed high voltage 127 00:07:02,920 --> 00:07:07,440 Speaker 1: all the time, whereas the left bank showed a switching 128 00:07:07,440 --> 00:07:10,400 Speaker 1: O two censor. No understand how a NO two center works. 129 00:07:10,480 --> 00:07:13,720 Speaker 1: No two center produces a voltage if it's lower lean. 130 00:07:13,800 --> 00:07:16,680 Speaker 1: If it's a lean fuel condition, meaning extra oxygen, it 131 00:07:16,760 --> 00:07:20,880 Speaker 1: produces a low signal. If it's a high signal, it 132 00:07:20,920 --> 00:07:24,400 Speaker 1: means there's a lack of oxygen. And what it was 133 00:07:24,480 --> 00:07:28,120 Speaker 1: happening was the catalytic converter on the right bank had melted, 134 00:07:29,080 --> 00:07:33,080 Speaker 1: restricted the exhaust and instead of oxygen in the system 135 00:07:33,240 --> 00:07:37,360 Speaker 1: was being polluted and diluted with exhaust. The exhaust couldn't 136 00:07:37,360 --> 00:07:39,600 Speaker 1: come out that bank of the engine and it was 137 00:07:39,720 --> 00:07:43,200 Speaker 1: choking the engine down. Pulled the O two centsor back out, 138 00:07:43,240 --> 00:07:46,720 Speaker 1: took my board, scope, went up and looked inside, snaked 139 00:07:46,720 --> 00:07:49,600 Speaker 1: it down inside, the cat, down around and sure enough 140 00:07:49,640 --> 00:07:51,880 Speaker 1: at the belly at the back of it, you could 141 00:07:51,920 --> 00:07:55,160 Speaker 1: see how the cat was broken up and starting to crumble. 142 00:07:57,320 --> 00:08:02,360 Speaker 1: Bottom line, don't ignore misfire. Ignoring misfires are kind of 143 00:08:02,360 --> 00:08:04,920 Speaker 1: like ignoring that thumping sensation you get in your chest 144 00:08:04,960 --> 00:08:07,520 Speaker 1: when you say, man, it's okay, it's just heartburn. Get 145 00:08:07,520 --> 00:08:11,280 Speaker 1: it checked out. It's not worth the risk, because in 146 00:08:11,320 --> 00:08:14,360 Speaker 1: the case of this jeep, it needed a catalytic converter. 147 00:08:14,480 --> 00:08:17,840 Speaker 1: The right bank cat had melted down and it was 148 00:08:17,880 --> 00:08:20,800 Speaker 1: in need of replacement, and I'm sure the left side 149 00:08:20,840 --> 00:08:23,440 Speaker 1: once we got it apart, we would see that. Unfortunately, 150 00:08:23,480 --> 00:08:25,400 Speaker 1: the customer made the decision that they had enough. They 151 00:08:25,480 --> 00:08:28,160 Speaker 1: had some other problems with the vehicle, uh, some recalls, 152 00:08:28,160 --> 00:08:31,480 Speaker 1: some software problems, airbag. As he put it, it really 153 00:08:31,520 --> 00:08:32,960 Speaker 1: wasn't a very good car and he was gonna get 154 00:08:33,040 --> 00:08:36,240 Speaker 1: rid of it and traded it in. So the bottom 155 00:08:36,280 --> 00:08:40,079 Speaker 1: line becomes that misfires, Yeah, it's something to pay attention 156 00:08:40,120 --> 00:08:42,680 Speaker 1: to in those funny noises and sensation. Yeah, it's something 157 00:08:42,679 --> 00:08:45,400 Speaker 1: to pay attention to. Um, just be mindful of it, 158 00:08:45,440 --> 00:08:47,480 Speaker 1: and you wound end up like a certain gy liberty 159 00:08:47,480 --> 00:08:49,120 Speaker 1: I'm aware of which, by the way, it's it's an 160 00:08:49,120 --> 00:08:52,240 Speaker 1: interesting conversation. We were talking, uh a little bit ago. 161 00:08:52,280 --> 00:08:54,160 Speaker 1: We're talking about renovating the shop, and you know how 162 00:08:54,160 --> 00:08:56,440 Speaker 1: I'm trying to clean up some scan tools and you know, 163 00:08:56,520 --> 00:08:58,560 Speaker 1: just deal with the things that are more current and modern. 164 00:08:58,679 --> 00:09:01,320 Speaker 1: Get my scan tool list down to wards. You know, 165 00:09:01,559 --> 00:09:03,280 Speaker 1: I want to work on eight to ten model years 166 00:09:03,320 --> 00:09:07,000 Speaker 1: because those older cars nobody's gonna work on. I knew 167 00:09:07,040 --> 00:09:08,280 Speaker 1: it was time to clean up the shop when I 168 00:09:08,320 --> 00:09:11,680 Speaker 1: found the scan tool for the because all those hundays 169 00:09:11,679 --> 00:09:13,960 Speaker 1: are in the junkyard anyway at this point. But my 170 00:09:14,040 --> 00:09:16,880 Speaker 1: point is it's hard to convince people sometimes to put 171 00:09:16,880 --> 00:09:19,720 Speaker 1: a catalytic converter in a five year old vehicle. They 172 00:09:19,720 --> 00:09:21,320 Speaker 1: want to get rid of it. What makes me think 173 00:09:21,360 --> 00:09:23,200 Speaker 1: that they're gonna want to fix a twenty two year 174 00:09:23,240 --> 00:09:26,480 Speaker 1: old vehicle. It's just not gonna happen. So sometimes tools 175 00:09:26,520 --> 00:09:29,000 Speaker 1: have to go. Anyway. Just my two cents and just 176 00:09:29,040 --> 00:09:31,840 Speaker 1: an observation from the shop this week that was, um, 177 00:09:31,880 --> 00:09:33,760 Speaker 1: that was just kind of interesting. Just it's just not 178 00:09:33,800 --> 00:09:37,240 Speaker 1: worth fixing. And I get it. I don't understand it sometimes, 179 00:09:37,240 --> 00:09:39,400 Speaker 1: but I get it because sometimes you gotta ride it out. 180 00:09:39,640 --> 00:09:43,200 Speaker 1: Eight zero nine zero. I'll mar any of the car doctor. 181 00:09:43,360 --> 00:10:12,000 Speaker 1: I'll be back right after this. Hey, welcome back, run 182 00:10:12,040 --> 00:10:14,600 Speaker 1: in any of the car doctor rolling along a zero 183 00:10:14,720 --> 00:10:17,440 Speaker 1: nine zero zero. Let's get over and talk to Dennis 184 00:10:18,080 --> 00:10:20,800 Speaker 1: in fair Law, New Jersey, right up the street from 185 00:10:20,800 --> 00:10:24,199 Speaker 1: the cookie factory. Um, are you down wind or up window? 186 00:10:24,280 --> 00:10:28,560 Speaker 1: Nibisco their dens so you know when they're making oreos? 187 00:10:28,600 --> 00:10:31,400 Speaker 1: Do they make oreos? They're still anymore? I'm not sure, 188 00:10:31,559 --> 00:10:38,640 Speaker 1: but sometimes it's smell very cookie cookie ish. Uh yeah, whenever. 189 00:10:38,920 --> 00:10:40,480 Speaker 1: That's that's that's the thing about if you're if you 190 00:10:40,600 --> 00:10:42,959 Speaker 1: live in North Jersey and a North Jersey and knows this, 191 00:10:43,400 --> 00:10:46,200 Speaker 1: if you're on a diet, you somehow find yourself wandering 192 00:10:46,240 --> 00:10:48,439 Speaker 1: out onto Route two oh eight just to drive up 193 00:10:48,679 --> 00:10:51,080 Speaker 1: and down, windows down so you can get the smell. 194 00:10:51,160 --> 00:10:52,959 Speaker 1: And at least you get the smell of cookie, much 195 00:10:53,040 --> 00:10:55,760 Speaker 1: less not eat one. So but that's that's the big 196 00:10:55,840 --> 00:10:58,000 Speaker 1: deal there. I'm gonna help you today, kiddo. I've got 197 00:10:58,120 --> 00:11:03,120 Speaker 1: a two thousand at six SI two miles, just broken in, 198 00:11:03,960 --> 00:11:06,600 Speaker 1: just broken in, and I want to keep it forever. 199 00:11:07,760 --> 00:11:10,199 Speaker 1: Now forever is a long time, Dennis. You gotta be 200 00:11:10,240 --> 00:11:13,760 Speaker 1: careful now. I would have replaced this car three times 201 00:11:13,880 --> 00:11:19,200 Speaker 1: if they still made it. Now it sounds like somebody 202 00:11:19,360 --> 00:11:23,679 Speaker 1: dumped some marbles into the crank case. It seems the 203 00:11:23,760 --> 00:11:28,959 Speaker 1: noise seems to be coming from upper passenger side to 204 00:11:29,080 --> 00:11:33,559 Speaker 1: the engine. It's not the uh A C clutch, and 205 00:11:33,679 --> 00:11:37,280 Speaker 1: it's not the water pump. I suspect it's a timing chain. 206 00:11:38,640 --> 00:11:44,160 Speaker 1: Now is there a simple fix for this? Well, here's 207 00:11:44,280 --> 00:11:46,480 Speaker 1: here's the problem. All right. Let's let me just back 208 00:11:46,559 --> 00:11:49,439 Speaker 1: up a second. So I'm going to assume that you've 209 00:11:49,480 --> 00:11:51,160 Speaker 1: pulled the belts off the front of the motor and 210 00:11:51,200 --> 00:11:54,120 Speaker 1: you've started it, and you still have the noise. Yes, okay, 211 00:11:54,160 --> 00:11:57,079 Speaker 1: so this is internal in the engine. Yes, let's let's 212 00:11:57,160 --> 00:11:59,760 Speaker 1: for conversations sake, say it's it's in the timing chain. 213 00:12:00,080 --> 00:12:03,160 Speaker 1: Say it's the tension er. All right. The problem is 214 00:12:03,200 --> 00:12:07,760 Speaker 1: it at a quarter million miles? What's next? And how 215 00:12:07,800 --> 00:12:09,880 Speaker 1: do you take it apart? The labor to take it 216 00:12:10,000 --> 00:12:15,040 Speaker 1: apart and repair whatever is there is? You know it's 217 00:12:15,080 --> 00:12:17,680 Speaker 1: not gonna be cheap. So do you do you take 218 00:12:17,720 --> 00:12:19,520 Speaker 1: it out? Do you pull the engine? You said you 219 00:12:19,559 --> 00:12:21,880 Speaker 1: wanted to keep it forever, right, I have it on radio. 220 00:12:21,960 --> 00:12:24,840 Speaker 1: You just said that two minutes ago. Do you pull 221 00:12:24,880 --> 00:12:27,520 Speaker 1: it apart? Do what we used to call a reseal, 222 00:12:28,080 --> 00:12:30,880 Speaker 1: change all the gas gets rear main oil pan, et cetera. 223 00:12:31,280 --> 00:12:33,760 Speaker 1: Put a chain, puts chain, put the chain, put the 224 00:12:33,840 --> 00:12:37,720 Speaker 1: guides to attention, or look at the oil pump. All right, 225 00:12:37,760 --> 00:12:40,240 Speaker 1: I'm not talking a complete engine overhaul, but I'm just talking, 226 00:12:41,320 --> 00:12:44,680 Speaker 1: you know, a mild a mild rebuild, if I will, 227 00:12:45,880 --> 00:12:47,280 Speaker 1: and then put it and then put it back in 228 00:12:47,360 --> 00:12:49,160 Speaker 1: the car. I mean, you know, either that or you're 229 00:12:49,160 --> 00:12:51,120 Speaker 1: gonna you're gonna go through the engine because you've got 230 00:12:51,200 --> 00:12:54,120 Speaker 1: it out of the car. The problem is what's the 231 00:12:54,200 --> 00:12:57,880 Speaker 1: cost factor? You know, back in the day when there 232 00:12:57,920 --> 00:13:01,839 Speaker 1: were engine shops around and and they existed, you know, 233 00:13:02,080 --> 00:13:06,160 Speaker 1: it's probably every bit of dollars to put an engine 234 00:13:06,160 --> 00:13:10,400 Speaker 1: in that car. Okay, next question, who makes the best 235 00:13:11,040 --> 00:13:16,040 Speaker 1: reman engines? If we're gonna do a remanufactured engine, I 236 00:13:16,120 --> 00:13:19,720 Speaker 1: like the ones that are handbuilt. Listen, everybody knows Jasper 237 00:13:19,880 --> 00:13:22,280 Speaker 1: Jasper makes an okay product. All right, A lot of 238 00:13:22,320 --> 00:13:26,320 Speaker 1: guys do Jasper engines. Nice thing about Jasper they've got 239 00:13:26,400 --> 00:13:29,240 Speaker 1: a great insurance policy. The bad thing is they kind 240 00:13:29,280 --> 00:13:33,320 Speaker 1: of need it, all right. Uh you know, it's it's 241 00:13:33,840 --> 00:13:36,760 Speaker 1: it's I'm not completely impressed that they're so flawless. But 242 00:13:37,120 --> 00:13:39,199 Speaker 1: if if they're the only game in town, then that's 243 00:13:39,200 --> 00:13:42,480 Speaker 1: what I'm gonna do. But the key becomes just as 244 00:13:42,520 --> 00:13:45,040 Speaker 1: important as whose engine you're gonna put in it. It's 245 00:13:45,080 --> 00:13:47,559 Speaker 1: also gonna be a case of who's gonna be the installer, 246 00:13:48,040 --> 00:13:50,000 Speaker 1: because it's only as good and how careful the guy 247 00:13:50,120 --> 00:13:53,480 Speaker 1: is it's doing the job. Does the car really justify 248 00:13:54,400 --> 00:13:56,520 Speaker 1: an engine at this point? If that's where it becomes, Dennis, 249 00:13:56,559 --> 00:13:59,199 Speaker 1: I mean, how's the body, how's the interior? Well? I 250 00:13:59,280 --> 00:14:01,640 Speaker 1: look at it like this. This car is unique enough 251 00:14:02,160 --> 00:14:04,120 Speaker 1: that it could be my que que car in a 252 00:14:04,200 --> 00:14:07,520 Speaker 1: couple of years. All right, as long as you're prepared. 253 00:14:07,640 --> 00:14:09,960 Speaker 1: You know, they don't obviously they don't make Scion anymore. 254 00:14:10,480 --> 00:14:12,480 Speaker 1: And you know my number one rule about a car 255 00:14:12,640 --> 00:14:14,199 Speaker 1: is by something you like is when it breaks, you 256 00:14:14,240 --> 00:14:17,240 Speaker 1: don't mind fixing it. You know, you don't mind the expense. 257 00:14:17,360 --> 00:14:19,760 Speaker 1: If that's this car, Dennis, If this car floats your 258 00:14:19,840 --> 00:14:22,920 Speaker 1: boat and and and and twist your head, then by 259 00:14:22,960 --> 00:14:26,480 Speaker 1: all means you know it's it's Have you priced having 260 00:14:26,640 --> 00:14:29,040 Speaker 1: it done? Well, I'm gonna ask the question this way, 261 00:14:29,560 --> 00:14:32,880 Speaker 1: who's your mechanic, who's your regular mechanic that services this car. 262 00:14:33,440 --> 00:14:38,000 Speaker 1: This car never breaks well, Dennis, somebody's got to be 263 00:14:38,080 --> 00:14:40,040 Speaker 1: working on it. Somebody's gotta be putting brakes on it 264 00:14:40,080 --> 00:14:43,560 Speaker 1: and changing fluids, and a couple of sets of brakes, 265 00:14:44,240 --> 00:14:49,360 Speaker 1: a water pump and a wheel bearing in two. So 266 00:14:49,480 --> 00:14:52,080 Speaker 1: now you're faced with the unimitable task of Now you've 267 00:14:52,080 --> 00:14:53,760 Speaker 1: got to find a mechanic to turn it over to 268 00:14:53,880 --> 00:14:58,360 Speaker 1: to do open heart surgery, well priced engines, remand engine 269 00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:03,840 Speaker 1: forget about to install it, Okay, I would, I would, 270 00:15:03,960 --> 00:15:06,560 Speaker 1: I would start asking around. You might find somebody hungry 271 00:15:06,600 --> 00:15:09,880 Speaker 1: to do it for five you know, it's it's you know, 272 00:15:09,960 --> 00:15:12,240 Speaker 1: And then who's whose engine is it? And then who's 273 00:15:12,280 --> 00:15:14,280 Speaker 1: when the engine blows up in three weeks, who's paying 274 00:15:14,280 --> 00:15:18,040 Speaker 1: the warranty to repair it? Are you familiar with promar 275 00:15:18,400 --> 00:15:24,280 Speaker 1: in Pattison. I've heard the name anything good or bad? No? Nothing? 276 00:15:24,360 --> 00:15:29,120 Speaker 1: No reviews, no, no reviews. Um, you know I've heard 277 00:15:29,160 --> 00:15:32,280 Speaker 1: the name. But beyond that, UM, I don't know of them. 278 00:15:32,960 --> 00:15:37,160 Speaker 1: One more quick question. So it's really not allowed noise. 279 00:15:37,280 --> 00:15:41,080 Speaker 1: It's not a rapping sound. It's just something that I 280 00:15:41,280 --> 00:15:44,840 Speaker 1: hear rumbling around. How how much further do you think 281 00:15:44,880 --> 00:15:47,280 Speaker 1: this engine will go? I don't know how long has 282 00:15:47,280 --> 00:15:51,480 Speaker 1: it been making the noise? Three months? Okay? Has the 283 00:15:51,560 --> 00:15:56,920 Speaker 1: noise changed? Are intensified? So it's it's been consistent and 284 00:15:57,200 --> 00:16:02,320 Speaker 1: you know have you have you babied it? Uh? Okay? 285 00:16:02,720 --> 00:16:04,520 Speaker 1: Do you want to find out how important the noise is. 286 00:16:05,880 --> 00:16:09,400 Speaker 1: It's a little risky. Are you ready to take this risk? Um? 287 00:16:10,720 --> 00:16:14,160 Speaker 1: You absolve me of the outcome. Take your foot, go 288 00:16:14,200 --> 00:16:15,800 Speaker 1: out to two A, put your foot in the headlight 289 00:16:15,840 --> 00:16:20,640 Speaker 1: and see what happens. You know, I was gonna say it, Um, 290 00:16:21,040 --> 00:16:22,400 Speaker 1: you know, if it if it holds up to a 291 00:16:22,480 --> 00:16:25,800 Speaker 1: couple of full throttle passes, then whatever it is. You know, 292 00:16:25,920 --> 00:16:28,320 Speaker 1: when it starts to change in sound, that's one thing, 293 00:16:28,640 --> 00:16:30,720 Speaker 1: and I'm kind of kidding with you, but my point 294 00:16:30,880 --> 00:16:33,040 Speaker 1: is when it starts to change in sound, that's when 295 00:16:33,080 --> 00:16:35,240 Speaker 1: you're you know, you're getting down to it. The bigger 296 00:16:35,320 --> 00:16:39,960 Speaker 1: issue is if it does fail. If it does fail, 297 00:16:40,880 --> 00:16:43,880 Speaker 1: then how much damage is it gonna do? That's number 298 00:16:43,920 --> 00:16:48,880 Speaker 1: one and number two. My original comment was, I prefer engines. 299 00:16:49,000 --> 00:16:52,520 Speaker 1: I prefer to rebuild what's in the car. All right, 300 00:16:52,840 --> 00:16:55,320 Speaker 1: you're gonna take it to pro mar Jasper, whoever it is, 301 00:16:55,400 --> 00:16:57,640 Speaker 1: and you're gonna take yours out and send them yours 302 00:16:58,040 --> 00:16:59,920 Speaker 1: as a core and they're gonna You're gonna get there 303 00:17:00,040 --> 00:17:01,880 Speaker 1: and they're gonna put you know what, I'd rather have 304 00:17:01,960 --> 00:17:05,200 Speaker 1: the original engine that came with the car. Find a 305 00:17:05,280 --> 00:17:09,560 Speaker 1: machine shop. My advice would be, find a machine shop 306 00:17:09,920 --> 00:17:14,720 Speaker 1: that still rebuilds in house. Okay, if they don't, if 307 00:17:14,800 --> 00:17:17,880 Speaker 1: they don't pull the engine, they'll know somebody that will 308 00:17:18,200 --> 00:17:21,960 Speaker 1: and and and installer and remover and let them and 309 00:17:22,040 --> 00:17:23,639 Speaker 1: you know what, and then get a hand built motor. 310 00:17:24,840 --> 00:17:27,080 Speaker 1: Does does? And I'm gonna ask this as delicately as 311 00:17:27,119 --> 00:17:29,399 Speaker 1: I can, Dennis, does the money really matter if it 312 00:17:29,480 --> 00:17:32,080 Speaker 1: was four thousand dollars instead of but it was a 313 00:17:32,240 --> 00:17:36,080 Speaker 1: top job, would that make you happier? No? Not? With 314 00:17:36,200 --> 00:17:39,640 Speaker 1: my ultimate plan is to keep this car forever. Right. Well, 315 00:17:39,680 --> 00:17:41,720 Speaker 1: that's but that's what I'm saying. Aren't you better off 316 00:17:41,800 --> 00:17:44,520 Speaker 1: spending more money on on what's perceived to be a 317 00:17:44,640 --> 00:17:48,399 Speaker 1: better value, a better job than something that you know 318 00:17:48,680 --> 00:17:53,239 Speaker 1: is assembly line built? Right? That's and that's my point. Um. 319 00:17:53,400 --> 00:17:55,840 Speaker 1: You know, I always felt that the engine that was 320 00:17:55,920 --> 00:17:59,560 Speaker 1: handbuilt in a small shop. I remember when RPM was 321 00:17:59,640 --> 00:18:03,000 Speaker 1: around the North Jersey and RPM Performance and docted the 322 00:18:03,119 --> 00:18:05,760 Speaker 1: heads and and um gosh, I can't think of his name, 323 00:18:05,800 --> 00:18:08,920 Speaker 1: I can see his face. Frank did the um the 324 00:18:09,040 --> 00:18:12,040 Speaker 1: block work, and one guy did the assembly. Three guys 325 00:18:12,080 --> 00:18:15,040 Speaker 1: built the whole engine. That was it. And you know 326 00:18:15,240 --> 00:18:17,359 Speaker 1: those days are gone. You know, a lot of the 327 00:18:17,400 --> 00:18:20,480 Speaker 1: smaller shops, a lot of the smaller businesses have gone 328 00:18:20,520 --> 00:18:22,800 Speaker 1: the way the Etzel, simply because there isn't demand for 329 00:18:22,920 --> 00:18:25,600 Speaker 1: engine rebuilding anymore in this part of the state. But 330 00:18:26,160 --> 00:18:28,720 Speaker 1: bottom line, you know, I don't want to make this 331 00:18:28,840 --> 00:18:30,679 Speaker 1: a regional show. I mean, it's a national show. I'm 332 00:18:30,680 --> 00:18:32,840 Speaker 1: sure out in California. I'm sure there's other parts of 333 00:18:32,880 --> 00:18:36,440 Speaker 1: the country where rebuilding engine still goes on. But in 334 00:18:36,600 --> 00:18:38,960 Speaker 1: terms of here, I'd look for that shop that might 335 00:18:39,040 --> 00:18:41,000 Speaker 1: still exist, just not gonna be in North Jersey. It 336 00:18:41,080 --> 00:18:43,520 Speaker 1: might be a little bit more towards Central and get 337 00:18:43,600 --> 00:18:45,240 Speaker 1: some reviews. At least the power of the engine. It 338 00:18:45,280 --> 00:18:48,760 Speaker 1: will give the ability to research. Um, you know who's 339 00:18:48,800 --> 00:18:51,040 Speaker 1: good and who's bad. But I would think twice before 340 00:18:51,080 --> 00:18:53,480 Speaker 1: I turned over the original engine to a builder as 341 00:18:53,520 --> 00:18:55,600 Speaker 1: a core and loose touch of it all together. Good 342 00:18:55,680 --> 00:18:57,720 Speaker 1: luck the adentis I'm an any of the car doctor, 343 00:18:57,720 --> 00:19:17,359 Speaker 1: I'll be back right after this, Hey Mary naming the 344 00:19:17,440 --> 00:19:20,840 Speaker 1: car doctor here zero nine nine zero zero. By the way, 345 00:19:20,840 --> 00:19:22,760 Speaker 1: a quick shout out to the little lady in the audience. 346 00:19:22,840 --> 00:19:25,800 Speaker 1: Mom is um recuperating and she's in studio with us today. 347 00:19:25,840 --> 00:19:28,280 Speaker 1: Wave mom, can she wave?

I haven't figured that one 352 00:19:36,560 --> 00:19:38,720 Speaker 1: out yet, but it's mom. You do whatever you want. 353 00:19:39,119 --> 00:19:41,159 Speaker 1: By the way, for the gentleman who called up, was 354 00:19:41,240 --> 00:19:44,200 Speaker 1: it the prior hour with the conversation about the water 355 00:19:44,320 --> 00:19:48,040 Speaker 1: pump on the hemmy? So with the concern about the 356 00:19:48,640 --> 00:19:51,480 Speaker 1: coolant and how good or bad the coolant is. I 357 00:19:51,600 --> 00:19:53,399 Speaker 1: have an email in front of me from a listener 358 00:19:53,560 --> 00:19:56,400 Speaker 1: out in Illinois who's talking about he found some good 359 00:19:56,440 --> 00:19:59,320 Speaker 1: information on a website, motor rat. Motor Sure. I know 360 00:19:59,359 --> 00:20:02,240 Speaker 1: who motor rat it is, motor red USA dot com. 361 00:20:03,000 --> 00:20:05,239 Speaker 1: Motor red usa dot com. They've got an article there 362 00:20:05,240 --> 00:20:07,840 Speaker 1: about flushing and filling your cars radiator if you don't 363 00:20:07,920 --> 00:20:10,119 Speaker 1: have a machine. So that's something you can go and 364 00:20:10,240 --> 00:20:12,840 Speaker 1: look at motor red usa dot com. They've got an 365 00:20:12,920 --> 00:20:14,800 Speaker 1: article I'm looking right at it now flushing and filling 366 00:20:14,840 --> 00:20:17,240 Speaker 1: your cars radiator. I agree with what they're saying. They're 367 00:20:17,240 --> 00:20:24,720 Speaker 1: basically talking about a procedure of draining, filling, running, draining, filling, running, 368 00:20:24,800 --> 00:20:27,359 Speaker 1: and repeating it two to three times as a method 369 00:20:27,520 --> 00:20:30,160 Speaker 1: of exchanging and getting out the cool and two and listen, 370 00:20:30,320 --> 00:20:31,680 Speaker 1: you know what, for lack of a better way to 371 00:20:31,680 --> 00:20:33,879 Speaker 1: put it, the poor man's way of doing things. It works. 372 00:20:34,400 --> 00:20:37,359 Speaker 1: It's a little costly and coolant, and obviously there's gonna 373 00:20:37,359 --> 00:20:40,639 Speaker 1: be a time factor involvement there, but it is a 374 00:20:40,680 --> 00:20:42,080 Speaker 1: good idea you can get. Like I said, you can 375 00:20:42,119 --> 00:20:44,840 Speaker 1: get out to motor rad mo t o Moto red 376 00:20:45,000 --> 00:20:47,280 Speaker 1: usa dot com and take a look at it. I've 377 00:20:47,280 --> 00:20:49,040 Speaker 1: got a bunch of great articles there, tech tips and 378 00:20:49,200 --> 00:20:51,359 Speaker 1: uh as well as some information about radiator caps and 379 00:20:51,359 --> 00:20:54,320 Speaker 1: thermostats and things like that. So, um, you know, enjoy 380 00:20:54,640 --> 00:20:57,159 Speaker 1: and thanks for that tip. Tony from Illinois. Let's go 381 00:20:57,280 --> 00:21:00,240 Speaker 1: and talk to Jim in Turner Main both thre f 382 00:21:00,320 --> 00:21:04,280 Speaker 1: one fifty and um some problems yet, Jim, how can 383 00:21:04,320 --> 00:21:06,600 Speaker 1: I help you? Yes, sir, Yes, glad to talk with you. 384 00:21:06,680 --> 00:21:11,040 Speaker 1: Wrong now two thousand three with electrical problems we got. 385 00:21:11,160 --> 00:21:12,920 Speaker 1: It was all banged up, and the guy sticks it 386 00:21:12,960 --> 00:21:18,280 Speaker 1: all up, straighten the frame, change offenders and bumper. And 387 00:21:18,480 --> 00:21:19,919 Speaker 1: as soon as you turn the lights on, that thing 388 00:21:20,000 --> 00:21:24,240 Speaker 1: wants to quit. It doesn't short out any fuses. Okay, 389 00:21:24,280 --> 00:21:27,080 Speaker 1: when you say it wants to quit, jim it. It 390 00:21:27,240 --> 00:21:30,959 Speaker 1: shuts the vehicle off. It does it terminates it all right, 391 00:21:31,520 --> 00:21:34,200 Speaker 1: So let me let me start. Let me start things 392 00:21:34,320 --> 00:21:38,240 Speaker 1: this way. When you when it's sitting there running, no headlights, 393 00:21:39,160 --> 00:21:42,840 Speaker 1: what's the charging system voltage? Uh, it's I check it 394 00:21:42,960 --> 00:21:49,200 Speaker 1: at over fourteen charging and without running it's at twelve eight. Alright, 395 00:21:49,280 --> 00:21:52,280 Speaker 1: so we've got good battery voltage. We've got alternator output. 396 00:21:52,800 --> 00:21:55,600 Speaker 1: Did you do a current output test of the alternator 397 00:21:55,640 --> 00:21:58,840 Speaker 1: as well? No, a while the vehicles running the headlights 398 00:21:58,880 --> 00:22:04,240 Speaker 1: looked like they got candle power, and that that's that's 399 00:22:04,280 --> 00:22:06,080 Speaker 1: where I was gonna go with this. You know, we 400 00:22:06,160 --> 00:22:09,600 Speaker 1: got to establish some baseline. Listen, God forbid, they wheeld 401 00:22:09,600 --> 00:22:11,399 Speaker 1: you into the emergency room. What's what's the first thing 402 00:22:11,440 --> 00:22:14,159 Speaker 1: they always do? Right, you're complaining of leg pains or 403 00:22:14,200 --> 00:22:16,359 Speaker 1: chest pains, whatever you're complaining about. They always do the 404 00:22:16,520 --> 00:22:20,560 Speaker 1: same basic things. Heart rate, blood pressure. They might take 405 00:22:20,600 --> 00:22:22,760 Speaker 1: a blood sample. They're gonna look in your eyes, your ears, 406 00:22:22,800 --> 00:22:25,879 Speaker 1: your nose, you know, they go through the drill. All right, 407 00:22:26,520 --> 00:22:28,960 Speaker 1: I've got a car with an electrical problem. I'm gonna 408 00:22:29,000 --> 00:22:33,720 Speaker 1: load test the battery. I'm gonna check charging, voltage rate underload, 409 00:22:34,160 --> 00:22:37,360 Speaker 1: and current rate underload, and I want to make sure 410 00:22:37,400 --> 00:22:42,480 Speaker 1: it meets spec. All right, that's number one. Now you've 411 00:22:42,480 --> 00:22:49,080 Speaker 1: got a problem where you notice weak headlight illumination. What 412 00:22:49,240 --> 00:22:51,760 Speaker 1: if you just turn the headlights on with the engine off, 413 00:22:52,640 --> 00:22:56,440 Speaker 1: it'll break No no, no, no, no no no, no 414 00:22:57,080 --> 00:23:01,360 Speaker 1: engine off, turn the headlights on. Uh I don't think 415 00:23:01,400 --> 00:23:05,280 Speaker 1: we tried. Okay, so let's do this. Let's let's leave 416 00:23:05,320 --> 00:23:09,080 Speaker 1: the engine off, turn the headlights on and see how 417 00:23:09,200 --> 00:23:13,399 Speaker 1: bright they are. Yeah, I'm not with the vehicle now, okay. 418 00:23:14,000 --> 00:23:17,119 Speaker 1: And if if hear me out, if you turn the 419 00:23:17,200 --> 00:23:20,919 Speaker 1: headlights on and they're weak, hook a battery charger up 420 00:23:21,000 --> 00:23:25,280 Speaker 1: to it and jinadah. Okay, and put a little bit 421 00:23:25,280 --> 00:23:27,280 Speaker 1: of a charge rate in it. You've got a vaultmeter. 422 00:23:27,440 --> 00:23:30,840 Speaker 1: The boys in the shop have a vaultmeter on electrician nights. Okay, 423 00:23:30,960 --> 00:23:33,640 Speaker 1: so figure out, figure out what's setting of the battery 424 00:23:33,760 --> 00:23:36,560 Speaker 1: charger makes it? I don't know. Pick a number, fourteen two, 425 00:23:36,720 --> 00:23:41,040 Speaker 1: fourteen five, all right, put fourteen point five vaults across 426 00:23:41,080 --> 00:23:45,280 Speaker 1: the battery. Turn the headlights on. Are the headlights still dim? 427 00:23:46,560 --> 00:23:50,080 Speaker 1: If the headlights? If the headlights are still dim. Now 428 00:23:50,200 --> 00:23:52,399 Speaker 1: we know that it's got nothing to do with the engine. 429 00:23:52,800 --> 00:23:55,760 Speaker 1: You've got a bad ground somewhere in the circuit. Yeah, 430 00:23:55,840 --> 00:23:59,720 Speaker 1: that's what um. But you don't think the battery could 431 00:23:59,720 --> 00:24:02,560 Speaker 1: have been aren't so heavily on that impact? That's what 432 00:24:02,640 --> 00:24:06,000 Speaker 1: happened to impact. Well, that's what the load test will 433 00:24:06,040 --> 00:24:10,240 Speaker 1: tell us, right, Okay, you don't know, right, Well, that's 434 00:24:10,280 --> 00:24:12,840 Speaker 1: what the load test will tell us. You know, if 435 00:24:13,800 --> 00:24:16,720 Speaker 1: you know, it's if we do a load test. Listen, 436 00:24:17,320 --> 00:24:20,639 Speaker 1: you're in the emergency room, okay, and you're complaining the 437 00:24:20,720 --> 00:24:23,160 Speaker 1: chest pain. You know they're gonna they're gonna they're gonna 438 00:24:23,200 --> 00:24:25,120 Speaker 1: check your heart and they're gonna check it. Six ways 439 00:24:25,200 --> 00:24:28,480 Speaker 1: to Sunday, check that battery, six ways to Sunday, every 440 00:24:28,520 --> 00:24:30,800 Speaker 1: which way you can, and you gotta go buy the numbers. 441 00:24:31,320 --> 00:24:33,840 Speaker 1: All right. I think you're right. I think it's absolutely 442 00:24:33,920 --> 00:24:36,240 Speaker 1: probably the problem is a battery, all right, well, I'm 443 00:24:36,240 --> 00:24:37,960 Speaker 1: not saying it is the battery. I'm just saying, but 444 00:24:38,040 --> 00:24:40,600 Speaker 1: you gotta test it. You have to test. Look, you 445 00:24:40,680 --> 00:24:42,760 Speaker 1: know what the problem is with diagnosis. I can. I 446 00:24:42,840 --> 00:24:44,320 Speaker 1: can tell it to You're real simple. You know what 447 00:24:44,359 --> 00:24:48,200 Speaker 1: the biggest mistake people making diagnosis? They test looking to 448 00:24:48,320 --> 00:24:52,879 Speaker 1: find the wrong thing right away. All right, That's what 449 00:24:53,000 --> 00:24:56,040 Speaker 1: I was doing. I test looking to find out what's 450 00:24:56,119 --> 00:24:59,800 Speaker 1: good so I can figure out what's bad. You can. 451 00:25:00,840 --> 00:25:03,320 Speaker 1: I don't. I don't make any determinations in my head. 452 00:25:03,359 --> 00:25:05,040 Speaker 1: I'll sit there and I'll go I want to check 453 00:25:05,119 --> 00:25:07,480 Speaker 1: these four things. Maybe one of these four is bad, 454 00:25:07,560 --> 00:25:10,720 Speaker 1: but I want to get them off the table. They're quick, simple, easy, 455 00:25:10,920 --> 00:25:14,399 Speaker 1: move on next, all right? If you if if you 456 00:25:14,560 --> 00:25:17,480 Speaker 1: load test that battery and it passes, and it's a 457 00:25:17,560 --> 00:25:19,600 Speaker 1: battery that takes water, and you can go sell by 458 00:25:19,640 --> 00:25:23,080 Speaker 1: cell and check each selling specific gravity that battery is 459 00:25:23,119 --> 00:25:25,960 Speaker 1: good forget it. Move on the alternator output. If it's good, 460 00:25:26,200 --> 00:25:28,879 Speaker 1: move on. If you do what I said with the 461 00:25:28,920 --> 00:25:32,080 Speaker 1: battery charger and and and check voltage output and check 462 00:25:32,480 --> 00:25:37,120 Speaker 1: headlight illumination and it doesn't improve, you're an electrician. Follow 463 00:25:37,160 --> 00:25:40,359 Speaker 1: the electrons right. If it it's got them coming in. 464 00:25:40,640 --> 00:25:43,000 Speaker 1: It can't get them going out. There's a bottleneckt somewhere, 465 00:25:43,080 --> 00:25:46,080 Speaker 1: the traffics on the highway. It's it's put an extra 466 00:25:46,119 --> 00:25:49,680 Speaker 1: ground on the headlights. For that matter, put an extra 467 00:25:49,720 --> 00:25:53,560 Speaker 1: ground on the headlights and does the headlight illumination go up? 468 00:25:53,600 --> 00:25:57,440 Speaker 1: And does the problem with the shutting off go away? Yeah? 469 00:25:58,280 --> 00:26:00,440 Speaker 1: All right, So I got a couple of things for 470 00:26:00,520 --> 00:26:01,840 Speaker 1: you to do. You'll do that. You'll call me back 471 00:26:01,880 --> 00:26:04,480 Speaker 1: next week, Jimmy, I'll do it, all right, sir. Good 472 00:26:04,560 --> 00:26:06,720 Speaker 1: luck to you, and thanks for me. You're very welcome. 473 00:26:06,760 --> 00:26:10,639 Speaker 1: Take good care. Five Listen, it's it's basics, man. You 474 00:26:10,720 --> 00:26:14,840 Speaker 1: know you can't. I mean, sometimes you get you're in 475 00:26:14,920 --> 00:26:18,320 Speaker 1: the bay and you're in it, and you know, you're 476 00:26:18,400 --> 00:26:20,560 Speaker 1: up to your eyeballs and it's Friday, it's three o'clock 477 00:26:20,600 --> 00:26:22,560 Speaker 1: and they're coming for the car, and you're just you're 478 00:26:22,680 --> 00:26:26,080 Speaker 1: that close and it's still sticking in your craw But 479 00:26:26,200 --> 00:26:28,320 Speaker 1: you've got a diagnose. You gotta find what's good so 480 00:26:28,440 --> 00:26:31,240 Speaker 1: you can figure out what's bad. One of the mantras 481 00:26:31,280 --> 00:26:32,920 Speaker 1: I live by in the last couple of years is 482 00:26:32,960 --> 00:26:34,320 Speaker 1: I think it's I think it's the model of the 483 00:26:34,359 --> 00:26:37,600 Speaker 1: big red one the Infantry Division. Stay calm and return fire. 484 00:26:37,800 --> 00:26:40,280 Speaker 1: When you're in the middle of a diagnosis, stay calm 485 00:26:40,359 --> 00:26:42,520 Speaker 1: and return fire, because that's how you're gonna win the game. 486 00:26:44,000 --> 00:26:46,640 Speaker 1: Zero nine zero zero. I'm run on ating in the car. Doctor. 487 00:26:46,680 --> 00:27:16,560 Speaker 1: I'll be back right after this. A welcome back run 488 00:27:16,640 --> 00:27:20,360 Speaker 1: any of the card doctor, zero nine zero zero. Let's 489 00:27:20,359 --> 00:27:22,720 Speaker 1: get over and talk to Greg and Iowa oh to 490 00:27:23,000 --> 00:27:25,560 Speaker 1: Ford Ranger, pick him up truck, Greg, Welcome to the car, doctors, sir, 491 00:27:25,600 --> 00:27:28,520 Speaker 1: how can I help hi? Thank you. I've got a 492 00:27:28,560 --> 00:27:31,000 Speaker 1: two thousand to Ford Rangers, got about a hundred and 493 00:27:31,080 --> 00:27:34,200 Speaker 1: three thousand miles on. It's got that four point oh six. 494 00:27:35,880 --> 00:27:39,119 Speaker 1: I went out a couple of weeks ago too, and 495 00:27:39,280 --> 00:27:41,760 Speaker 1: just it's it's garaged. I always take care of my 496 00:27:41,840 --> 00:27:44,159 Speaker 1: service when it needs service. Went out to start it 497 00:27:44,359 --> 00:27:47,280 Speaker 1: and it just it started, but it sounded like it 498 00:27:47,359 --> 00:27:50,800 Speaker 1: was running on four cylinders, just belched black smoke and 499 00:27:51,280 --> 00:27:53,399 Speaker 1: and just would hardly run. And I goose in a 500 00:27:53,440 --> 00:27:55,760 Speaker 1: little bit and as if you got the RPMs up 501 00:27:55,800 --> 00:27:57,920 Speaker 1: that would clear up a little bit. But there was 502 00:27:58,000 --> 00:28:02,000 Speaker 1: obviously something wrong, so I shut it off open the hood. 503 00:28:02,040 --> 00:28:03,639 Speaker 1: Although I'm not a mechanic I didn't know what I 504 00:28:03,720 --> 00:28:05,479 Speaker 1: was looking at, you know, and just check to make 505 00:28:05,520 --> 00:28:08,439 Speaker 1: sure the plug wires and things were there and stuff, 506 00:28:08,720 --> 00:28:15,159 Speaker 1: and waited about five minutes, started again, started fine, And 507 00:28:15,680 --> 00:28:17,920 Speaker 1: every since time I'm afraid to take it out because 508 00:28:17,920 --> 00:28:19,440 Speaker 1: I don't want to get caught out somewhere and have 509 00:28:19,600 --> 00:28:22,080 Speaker 1: that problem again. I even took it to a mechanic 510 00:28:22,200 --> 00:28:24,600 Speaker 1: at one of the service stations in my small town. 511 00:28:25,080 --> 00:28:26,760 Speaker 1: But like you say, if it's not broke, you can't 512 00:28:26,800 --> 00:28:29,840 Speaker 1: fix it, you know, he couldn't find any idea of 513 00:28:29,880 --> 00:28:31,520 Speaker 1: what that might be. Well, one of the things I 514 00:28:31,560 --> 00:28:33,399 Speaker 1: would look for is that I'd love to see what 515 00:28:33,520 --> 00:28:36,400 Speaker 1: fuel pressure is like on this truck. Did anybody check 516 00:28:36,520 --> 00:28:40,560 Speaker 1: fuel pressure during the course of this? So I think 517 00:28:40,600 --> 00:28:43,920 Speaker 1: if anything, it was getting too much gas? Well, that's right, 518 00:28:44,240 --> 00:28:46,360 Speaker 1: but it's also there's also a couple of things fuel 519 00:28:46,360 --> 00:28:48,680 Speaker 1: pressure is gonna tell us. I mean there there, there's 520 00:28:48,760 --> 00:28:51,040 Speaker 1: there's a couple of ways to approach this. Number One, 521 00:28:51,120 --> 00:28:54,840 Speaker 1: when was the last time the fuel filter was replaced? Uh, 522 00:28:55,320 --> 00:28:57,960 Speaker 1: I'll tell you in the last six or seven months 523 00:28:58,200 --> 00:29:02,880 Speaker 1: I had. I had the UH fuel pumper place at 524 00:29:02,920 --> 00:29:04,720 Speaker 1: that time. And you know what a job the fuel is, 525 00:29:05,560 --> 00:29:07,920 Speaker 1: so I just you know what, if I'm dealing with 526 00:29:08,040 --> 00:29:11,000 Speaker 1: something in the area of a of a fuel system, 527 00:29:11,200 --> 00:29:13,000 Speaker 1: I want to know when the filter was changed last. 528 00:29:13,480 --> 00:29:15,680 Speaker 1: I've I've seen a lot of funny things happen from 529 00:29:15,720 --> 00:29:18,680 Speaker 1: restricted fuel filters. I don't think that's the case here, 530 00:29:19,000 --> 00:29:20,920 Speaker 1: But I'm just trying to make a point that maintenance 531 00:29:20,960 --> 00:29:23,480 Speaker 1: does help solve problems. So if it hasn't had a 532 00:29:23,520 --> 00:29:25,480 Speaker 1: fuel filter in a while, let's put it that. Let's 533 00:29:25,480 --> 00:29:27,720 Speaker 1: pull it down, blow through it, whether it's clean or dirty. 534 00:29:28,120 --> 00:29:30,120 Speaker 1: Let's just change it and get that over With that 535 00:29:30,320 --> 00:29:33,760 Speaker 1: being said, all right, they put a fuel pump in it, 536 00:29:34,240 --> 00:29:37,920 Speaker 1: all right, I still want to know what's sitting rest 537 00:29:38,000 --> 00:29:42,560 Speaker 1: fuel pressure, what is running fuel pressure? And how long 538 00:29:42,680 --> 00:29:48,640 Speaker 1: does residual fuel pressure last? All right? If fuel pressure 539 00:29:48,760 --> 00:29:52,200 Speaker 1: bleeds off within thirty seconds of turning the key off, 540 00:29:53,400 --> 00:29:56,600 Speaker 1: we got a problem. It's got to hold pressure. And 541 00:29:57,040 --> 00:30:00,080 Speaker 1: is the problem going to be is it in the 542 00:30:01,600 --> 00:30:07,600 Speaker 1: regulator or is it in the injector itself? Something's causing 543 00:30:07,760 --> 00:30:13,520 Speaker 1: or something caused this to run? Rich Right, Okay, Now, 544 00:30:13,680 --> 00:30:17,560 Speaker 1: as you said, right, you may not duplicate it again, 545 00:30:17,680 --> 00:30:20,040 Speaker 1: because but I can tell you this. Letting it sit 546 00:30:20,080 --> 00:30:21,840 Speaker 1: in the garage is only gonna make it worse. You'll 547 00:30:21,880 --> 00:30:23,600 Speaker 1: never find that, you'll never drive the vehicle that will 548 00:30:23,640 --> 00:30:27,320 Speaker 1: rot away. Yeah, so I thought, I'm probably gonna have 549 00:30:27,360 --> 00:30:29,040 Speaker 1: to take it to the dealer or something. And maybe 550 00:30:29,080 --> 00:30:31,560 Speaker 1: they had somebody said maybe it was they had all 551 00:30:31,600 --> 00:30:33,800 Speaker 1: these you know, cars are a lot different than they 552 00:30:33,840 --> 00:30:35,760 Speaker 1: were back when I was in the business, and they 553 00:30:35,800 --> 00:30:39,520 Speaker 1: have sensors and things like that that that I think 554 00:30:39,560 --> 00:30:44,800 Speaker 1: can can affect that. But that's way past well, you know, Greg, 555 00:30:44,920 --> 00:30:49,280 Speaker 1: it could, but for a censor to let's let's talk 556 00:30:49,280 --> 00:30:51,360 Speaker 1: about this. Let's say it was a cool intempt censor, 557 00:30:52,000 --> 00:30:54,520 Speaker 1: all right. And you know, back in the days you 558 00:30:54,560 --> 00:30:56,080 Speaker 1: said you were in the business, you were you in 559 00:30:56,160 --> 00:30:58,440 Speaker 1: the business in the days of carburetors and choke flaps. 560 00:31:00,520 --> 00:31:03,200 Speaker 1: So in the days of carburetors and choke flaps, if 561 00:31:03,280 --> 00:31:07,000 Speaker 1: the choke flaps stuck on, that thing would run dead rich, 562 00:31:08,280 --> 00:31:11,120 Speaker 1: all right, and it would blackstood on the driveway and 563 00:31:11,200 --> 00:31:14,120 Speaker 1: foul the plugs and so on and so forth. Okay, 564 00:31:15,320 --> 00:31:18,920 Speaker 1: In computerized fuel injection vehicles, they're looking at a cool 565 00:31:18,960 --> 00:31:23,480 Speaker 1: intemp sensor. So, you know, can we duplicate it? What 566 00:31:23,520 --> 00:31:25,840 Speaker 1: does the cool intempt sensor look like, is there any 567 00:31:25,960 --> 00:31:29,440 Speaker 1: history in the system of appending code? Is it? You know? 568 00:31:29,600 --> 00:31:31,920 Speaker 1: Do we if we look at cool intemp censor and 569 00:31:32,000 --> 00:31:34,880 Speaker 1: intake air temp sensor without even starting the car one day, 570 00:31:35,240 --> 00:31:38,760 Speaker 1: are they within ten degrees of each other? So there's 571 00:31:38,800 --> 00:31:41,400 Speaker 1: some testing there they can do. But even so, a 572 00:31:41,520 --> 00:31:44,600 Speaker 1: cool intemp censor, boy, you didn't have to be minus 573 00:31:44,680 --> 00:31:48,720 Speaker 1: forty on a twenty degree day. I can't say that 574 00:31:48,760 --> 00:31:51,320 Speaker 1: I've seen it where it would actually physically kill two cylinders. 575 00:31:51,520 --> 00:31:54,760 Speaker 1: When you start losing cylinders, it's usually an injection issue 576 00:31:54,960 --> 00:31:59,520 Speaker 1: in that cylinder, whether it's high pressure, low pressure, no pressure, 577 00:32:00,120 --> 00:32:05,560 Speaker 1: stuck open injector p and fuel something like that. All right, 578 00:32:05,960 --> 00:32:08,280 Speaker 1: so you're gonna have to drive it. Somebody's gonna have 579 00:32:08,280 --> 00:32:10,200 Speaker 1: to start to diagnose it, hook a few things up 580 00:32:10,240 --> 00:32:13,160 Speaker 1: to it, and start to attack it from there. Um, 581 00:32:13,360 --> 00:32:15,400 Speaker 1: I would I would be looking at sensors, I would 582 00:32:15,440 --> 00:32:18,320 Speaker 1: be looking at pending codes. I would monitor fuel pressure 583 00:32:19,120 --> 00:32:21,440 Speaker 1: and ask them And this is how you'll know if 584 00:32:21,440 --> 00:32:23,479 Speaker 1: they know what they're doing. Ask them if they can 585 00:32:23,520 --> 00:32:28,640 Speaker 1: look at mode six test data, modes SI Mode six 586 00:32:29,480 --> 00:32:32,440 Speaker 1: all right, Mode six test data. Did you ever wonder 587 00:32:32,480 --> 00:32:36,160 Speaker 1: how a computer knows when it has a problem. Well, 588 00:32:36,240 --> 00:32:37,760 Speaker 1: when you were a little kid, if you didn't clean 589 00:32:37,800 --> 00:32:39,480 Speaker 1: your room, how did your mother? How did your mother 590 00:32:39,520 --> 00:32:41,120 Speaker 1: find out? She went up and looked at it, right, 591 00:32:42,280 --> 00:32:46,360 Speaker 1: and then you got the beaten right? So right or 592 00:32:46,440 --> 00:32:48,520 Speaker 1: you got right. So the way the computer knows whether 593 00:32:48,600 --> 00:32:50,680 Speaker 1: or not you cleaned your room is it asks it 594 00:32:50,920 --> 00:32:52,800 Speaker 1: for the car to do something, and it looks for 595 00:32:52,880 --> 00:32:56,840 Speaker 1: a response, and it tests that in an area of 596 00:32:56,920 --> 00:33:01,400 Speaker 1: the computer software called mode six. So you know, you 597 00:33:01,480 --> 00:33:03,480 Speaker 1: go to mode six. If you can read mode six, 598 00:33:03,720 --> 00:33:06,160 Speaker 1: You'll see how it tested the cooling circuit. You'll see 599 00:33:06,160 --> 00:33:08,760 Speaker 1: how it tested for engine misfires. You'll see how it 600 00:33:08,880 --> 00:33:13,120 Speaker 1: tested airflow sensor response. You'll see those tests. And even 601 00:33:13,160 --> 00:33:15,760 Speaker 1: though maybe it's not bad enough to get a spanking 602 00:33:16,560 --> 00:33:19,680 Speaker 1: turn on the check engine light, it might be bad 603 00:33:19,840 --> 00:33:21,760 Speaker 1: enough to tell you, hey, this is on the fuzzy 604 00:33:21,840 --> 00:33:25,360 Speaker 1: edge of something about to happen. And that's why. That's 605 00:33:25,400 --> 00:33:28,120 Speaker 1: what that's another thing. I forgot to tell you that 606 00:33:28,320 --> 00:33:31,320 Speaker 1: right when this happened, that the testing the check engine 607 00:33:31,400 --> 00:33:33,680 Speaker 1: light didn't come on. But as I say, for for 608 00:33:33,880 --> 00:33:36,320 Speaker 1: days I've been starting it, pulling it out, letting it 609 00:33:36,400 --> 00:33:38,200 Speaker 1: warm up, and then turn it off. Then later in 610 00:33:38,240 --> 00:33:40,360 Speaker 1: the days starting it basically back in the back, and 611 00:33:40,880 --> 00:33:43,560 Speaker 1: sometime during that time that the check engine light did 612 00:33:43,680 --> 00:33:46,200 Speaker 1: come on. There you go, you got a spanking. It's 613 00:33:46,240 --> 00:33:48,320 Speaker 1: time to go. It's time to go see mom, kiddo. 614 00:33:48,880 --> 00:33:50,560 Speaker 1: And um, you know it's time to go see mom 615 00:33:50,600 --> 00:33:52,640 Speaker 1: and get a spanking because something turned that check engine 616 00:33:52,720 --> 00:33:54,080 Speaker 1: light on. Let him take a look at it and 617 00:33:54,120 --> 00:33:55,640 Speaker 1: give me called next week. I'm sorry, I gotta go 618 00:33:55,720 --> 00:33:59,840 Speaker 1: him up against the clock, grego zero. The car doctors 619 00:33:59,880 --> 00:34:27,799 Speaker 1: come and back right after this. You know it pays 620 00:34:27,840 --> 00:34:29,759 Speaker 1: if I put my headphones on. Look at that hot Tom. 621 00:34:29,760 --> 00:34:31,920 Speaker 1: I'm already now, Hey, Ronny in the car doctor, I'm 622 00:34:31,960 --> 00:34:33,800 Speaker 1: looking around. My years were cold, I'm saying, way and 623 00:34:33,800 --> 00:34:37,400 Speaker 1: I'm missing something. Um, gotta put the headphones on. I'm here, folks, honest, 624 00:34:37,440 --> 00:34:40,399 Speaker 1: I'm not going anywhere. Much to Tony Chagrin, quick piece 625 00:34:40,400 --> 00:34:42,200 Speaker 1: of email, ron thanks for your show. I'm thinking about 626 00:34:42,200 --> 00:34:44,719 Speaker 1: buying a Toyota Highlander hybrid which has a CBT trans 627 00:34:44,760 --> 00:34:47,040 Speaker 1: which just please spend a minute talking about their transmissions, 628 00:34:47,320 --> 00:34:50,640 Speaker 1: their reliability and problems. Also, if you could adjust hybrid technology, 629 00:34:51,080 --> 00:34:53,879 Speaker 1: it's level of technology integration problems you've seen et cetera. 630 00:34:53,920 --> 00:34:56,799 Speaker 1: Thanks for all your help on this lance out in California. 631 00:34:57,200 --> 00:34:59,120 Speaker 1: Lance and tell you what I reached out to a 632 00:34:59,239 --> 00:35:01,799 Speaker 1: personal friend. We go out to dinner three or four 633 00:35:01,920 --> 00:35:05,040 Speaker 1: times a year and spend more time than I probably 634 00:35:05,080 --> 00:35:07,919 Speaker 1: could imagine talking by emailing on the phone about cars 635 00:35:07,960 --> 00:35:10,280 Speaker 1: and Toyotas and everything in general. He's a service manager 636 00:35:10,760 --> 00:35:13,520 Speaker 1: of a Toyota dealer here in the area, so he answered. 637 00:35:13,520 --> 00:35:17,080 Speaker 1: I'll answer, CVTs have been pretty much bulletproof. For example 638 00:35:17,719 --> 00:35:20,879 Speaker 1: here we've never replaced one. As for maintenance on the transmission, 639 00:35:20,960 --> 00:35:23,560 Speaker 1: there is none. As for hybrid technology, none better than 640 00:35:23,600 --> 00:35:27,759 Speaker 1: Toyota period. Just ask those drive Toyotas just as those 641 00:35:27,880 --> 00:35:30,480 Speaker 1: drive Toyotas. For the tires and a Lexus version. Oh, 642 00:35:30,760 --> 00:35:33,160 Speaker 1: because the comment was also about how Lexus is wear 643 00:35:33,200 --> 00:35:35,320 Speaker 1: out tires faster. As for the tires and a Lexus versions, 644 00:35:35,640 --> 00:35:37,279 Speaker 1: all I have to say is bridget On tires were 645 00:35:37,320 --> 00:35:41,440 Speaker 1: out quickly. On the Toyota side. You see michel entires. Interesting, Okay. Disclaimer, 646 00:35:41,480 --> 00:35:43,360 Speaker 1: I own a Prius. This is the service manager of 647 00:35:43,360 --> 00:35:45,920 Speaker 1: a local Toyota dealer and Highland or hybrid for three 648 00:35:46,000 --> 00:35:48,600 Speaker 1: years and Brian.
