1
00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:02,360
Speaker 1: Who's playing third day? Why do you just putting who

2
00:00:02,360 --> 00:00:05,400
Speaker 1: on the third day? Second? You don't want? Who want?

3
00:00:05,480 --> 00:00:09,840
Speaker 1: Second was on? I don't know, Ronan. You know you

4
00:00:09,880 --> 00:00:11,879
Speaker 1: have a power to take care of your car, getting

5
00:00:11,880 --> 00:00:13,480
Speaker 1: your car set down. Look in the apprill of corner

6
00:00:13,520 --> 00:00:15,400
Speaker 1: one shield where they're probably or they should be putting

7
00:00:15,480 --> 00:00:17,599
Speaker 1: or they most of us put the oil chain stickers.

8
00:00:17,600 --> 00:00:20,079
Speaker 1: Now what's it just done? If it was just done

9
00:00:20,079 --> 00:00:32,199
Speaker 1: good ready by today, I would take your arm your

10
00:00:32,479 --> 00:00:35,440
Speaker 1: who's on the idea of limp mode was to get

11
00:00:35,440 --> 00:00:38,560
Speaker 1: you home and I'm assuming that's what it did, right, well,

12
00:00:39,000 --> 00:00:42,360
Speaker 1: sort of it did well, not from where I was

13
00:00:44,159 --> 00:00:46,280
Speaker 1: with the coach thaiway with one on one and so no,

14
00:00:46,479 --> 00:00:48,479
Speaker 1: it's not going to get me home that way. Welcome

15
00:00:48,560 --> 00:00:51,640
Speaker 1: to the radio home of ron Andanian the Car Doctor,

16
00:00:51,920 --> 00:00:56,120
Speaker 1: since this is where car owners the world overturned to

17
00:00:56,560 --> 00:01:00,760
Speaker 1: for their definitive opinion on automotive repair. If your mechanics

18
00:01:00,800 --> 00:01:03,400
Speaker 1: giving you a busy signal, pick up the phone and

19
00:01:03,480 --> 00:01:06,720
Speaker 1: call in. The garage doors are open, but I am

20
00:01:06,760 --> 00:01:14,400
Speaker 1: here to take your calls at eight five and now running.

21
00:01:15,480 --> 00:01:18,319
Speaker 1: I want to tell you about the test, the key

22
00:01:18,400 --> 00:01:22,759
Speaker 1: drop test we UM recently started employing this to find

23
00:01:22,760 --> 00:01:25,640
Speaker 1: out just you know, how smart are you? You know,

24
00:01:25,720 --> 00:01:28,240
Speaker 1: we we know you expect us to be smart, but

25
00:01:28,680 --> 00:01:30,520
Speaker 1: we kind of expect you to be smart too. You know.

26
00:01:30,520 --> 00:01:32,360
Speaker 1: It's a two way street. We're gonna communicate at a

27
00:01:32,400 --> 00:01:35,039
Speaker 1: certain level. We're gonna solve your car's problem. We're gonna

28
00:01:35,080 --> 00:01:37,080
Speaker 1: fix it. We're gonna ship it out the door and

29
00:01:37,080 --> 00:01:38,560
Speaker 1: move on to the next one at the shop. I mean,

30
00:01:38,560 --> 00:01:40,640
Speaker 1: that's the way it works, right, That's it's a business,

31
00:01:40,680 --> 00:01:43,920
Speaker 1: it's and we're just trying to fix cars. So we

32
00:01:43,959 --> 00:01:45,360
Speaker 1: have a simple test now. We call it the key

33
00:01:45,440 --> 00:01:48,600
Speaker 1: drop test. We usually find that most new customers like

34
00:01:48,640 --> 00:01:51,720
Speaker 1: to drop off before or after hours, so you know,

35
00:01:51,720 --> 00:01:53,080
Speaker 1: we don't get to see them for the first time.

36
00:01:53,120 --> 00:01:55,680
Speaker 1: It seems to be a common trend lately, so we

37
00:01:55,760 --> 00:01:57,440
Speaker 1: explain it to them. Listen, you're gonna pull the car

38
00:01:57,520 --> 00:01:59,800
Speaker 1: up to the side of the building. There's parking off street.

39
00:02:00,120 --> 00:02:02,960
Speaker 1: You're going to go into the white mailbox, take a

40
00:02:03,080 --> 00:02:06,120
Speaker 1: key drop envelope. It's clearly marked white mailbox. A matter

41
00:02:06,160 --> 00:02:08,600
Speaker 1: of fact, the white mailbox says this is not a mailbox,

42
00:02:08,639 --> 00:02:11,000
Speaker 1: this is a key drop envelope box. Of course, the

43
00:02:11,000 --> 00:02:13,680
Speaker 1: mailman keeps putting mail in, which is he probably couldn't

44
00:02:13,680 --> 00:02:15,399
Speaker 1: even pass the key drop test, much less know where

45
00:02:15,400 --> 00:02:16,639
Speaker 1: to put the mail half the time. But that's a

46
00:02:16,639 --> 00:02:19,519
Speaker 1: whole another story for a whole another problem. So it's

47
00:02:19,600 --> 00:02:21,280
Speaker 1: usually if the mail, hey, the mail come today, I

48
00:02:21,280 --> 00:02:23,040
Speaker 1: don't know, go check the key drop box. That says

49
00:02:23,080 --> 00:02:24,720
Speaker 1: this is not a mailbox, and usually that's where the

50
00:02:24,760 --> 00:02:26,560
Speaker 1: mail is. So you know, this is what we're dealing

51
00:02:26,600 --> 00:02:29,080
Speaker 1: with today. So we tell you to take an envelope

52
00:02:29,080 --> 00:02:31,440
Speaker 1: out of the key drop box, put your keys in

53
00:02:31,480 --> 00:02:34,840
Speaker 1: the envelope, sign off at the bottom, tell us what's

54
00:02:34,840 --> 00:02:36,600
Speaker 1: wrong with the car, and put it in the brass

55
00:02:36,639 --> 00:02:40,959
Speaker 1: mail slot just above the white mailbox. Seems simple, right,

56
00:02:42,200 --> 00:02:45,160
Speaker 1: It isn't. It really seems to be the most confusing

57
00:02:45,200 --> 00:02:47,080
Speaker 1: thing I've ever asked anybody to do in my fifty

58
00:02:47,080 --> 00:02:50,080
Speaker 1: one years of repairing cars. I find keys in the

59
00:02:50,240 --> 00:02:53,600
Speaker 1: drop slot, the envelope in the white mailbox. I find

60
00:02:53,800 --> 00:02:57,640
Speaker 1: the keys in the car, the white envelope in the

61
00:02:57,680 --> 00:03:01,760
Speaker 1: mailbox signed off no instruction is just their name and

62
00:03:01,800 --> 00:03:05,480
Speaker 1: they sign I find the keys in the box first,

63
00:03:05,480 --> 00:03:08,720
Speaker 1: then the envelope gives dropped in after Sometimes I find

64
00:03:08,800 --> 00:03:11,079
Speaker 1: an envelope within an envelope because they're not quite sure,

65
00:03:11,120 --> 00:03:13,120
Speaker 1: they want to write seven or ten different things, and

66
00:03:13,360 --> 00:03:14,800
Speaker 1: they run out of the room. Then I find the

67
00:03:14,880 --> 00:03:19,200
Speaker 1: long letters. You know, dropping off and picking up at

68
00:03:19,200 --> 00:03:22,200
Speaker 1: a repair shop is just as much a part of

69
00:03:22,200 --> 00:03:26,280
Speaker 1: the process as the repair and one of the things

70
00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:27,840
Speaker 1: and one of the reasons I do this, one of

71
00:03:27,880 --> 00:03:31,600
Speaker 1: the things I'm looking for is what is your communication ability?

72
00:03:31,720 --> 00:03:35,720
Speaker 1: What is your level at which you can communicate? Because

73
00:03:35,760 --> 00:03:38,119
Speaker 1: if you can't understand, walk up to the white mail box,

74
00:03:38,160 --> 00:03:40,280
Speaker 1: take the envelope at fill it out, sign off at

75
00:03:40,280 --> 00:03:41,920
Speaker 1: the bottom, drop your keys, and drop the keys in

76
00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:45,720
Speaker 1: the breast mail slot. If you can't understand that, what's

77
00:03:45,720 --> 00:03:47,560
Speaker 1: gonna happen When I tell you your car needs four

78
00:03:47,560 --> 00:03:49,840
Speaker 1: wheel breaks? The left front calipers locked on the right

79
00:03:49,880 --> 00:03:51,880
Speaker 1: rear break is metal on metal and we're gonna end

80
00:03:51,960 --> 00:03:53,400
Speaker 1: up having to do a break bleeder flush and will

81
00:03:53,400 --> 00:03:55,880
Speaker 1: be about sixteen hundred dollars. Did you hear any of that? Well,

82
00:03:55,880 --> 00:03:58,440
Speaker 1: you heard the sixteen hllars is everybody always hears the number,

83
00:03:58,720 --> 00:04:01,840
Speaker 1: but nobody ever hears details or the minutia in between,

84
00:04:02,600 --> 00:04:07,120
Speaker 1: and in order repair minutia counts. It does the devil

85
00:04:07,200 --> 00:04:09,680
Speaker 1: is in the details. It's it's all about paying attention

86
00:04:09,720 --> 00:04:12,160
Speaker 1: to the small stuff, and that's what makes it work.

87
00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:15,960
Speaker 1: And then the problem becomes and thank god for texting.

88
00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:18,040
Speaker 1: We've we've been texting in the shop now for about

89
00:04:18,080 --> 00:04:21,320
Speaker 1: three years because we'll get the envelope that they don't

90
00:04:21,320 --> 00:04:22,880
Speaker 1: even fill out. They'll just drop the keys in and

91
00:04:22,960 --> 00:04:25,400
Speaker 1: he'll figure out whose keys these are until I get

92
00:04:25,400 --> 00:04:28,200
Speaker 1: four Toyota cameras that day and I've got four you know,

93
00:04:28,320 --> 00:04:30,200
Speaker 1: remote start and I have to walk outside with all

94
00:04:30,240 --> 00:04:32,160
Speaker 1: these remotes and start tapping them to go this one

95
00:04:32,200 --> 00:04:33,800
Speaker 1: goes with this one, this one goes with that one,

96
00:04:33,880 --> 00:04:37,520
Speaker 1: that one goes with this one. And then there's no instructions.

97
00:04:37,720 --> 00:04:38,920
Speaker 1: What do you want me to do to your car?

98
00:04:39,440 --> 00:04:42,440
Speaker 1: And then it's always interesting, right, we had Fred dropped

99
00:04:42,440 --> 00:04:44,680
Speaker 1: off Fred. We've known Fred. I've known Fred for a

100
00:04:44,720 --> 00:04:46,760
Speaker 1: long time. He's at the local Delhi here in town.

101
00:04:46,800 --> 00:04:49,120
Speaker 1: We sit and we we have coffee once in a

102
00:04:49,160 --> 00:04:51,080
Speaker 1: while on a Friday morning before we go to work,

103
00:04:52,440 --> 00:04:55,760
Speaker 1: and and I gave Fred the key drop test. So

104
00:04:56,040 --> 00:04:59,799
Speaker 1: Fred decided that instead of using an envelope or telling

105
00:04:59,800 --> 00:05:01,720
Speaker 1: me it was wrong with the car, because he had

106
00:05:01,720 --> 00:05:03,160
Speaker 1: come in to tell me he was going to drop

107
00:05:03,200 --> 00:05:06,040
Speaker 1: off the car for a transmission service and he had

108
00:05:06,040 --> 00:05:08,400
Speaker 1: an oil league. He decided to just make his own

109
00:05:08,400 --> 00:05:10,480
Speaker 1: tag at home that said Fred on it, drop it

110
00:05:10,520 --> 00:05:12,640
Speaker 1: in the key drop slot, and walked away. I came

111
00:05:12,640 --> 00:05:14,479
Speaker 1: in the next morning as a key tag that says Fred.

112
00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:17,320
Speaker 1: Now what happened if I had two freads with two keys?

113
00:05:17,400 --> 00:05:21,880
Speaker 1: But regardless, so I, you know, filled out the form,

114
00:05:21,960 --> 00:05:25,160
Speaker 1: I filled out the the envelope or the repair order,

115
00:05:25,200 --> 00:05:26,839
Speaker 1: and and you know, get it going in the rack.

116
00:05:27,080 --> 00:05:30,200
Speaker 1: But I always wanted I always want that last little instruction,

117
00:05:30,279 --> 00:05:32,279
Speaker 1: so you know, you always get that text for me,

118
00:05:32,640 --> 00:05:35,279
Speaker 1: good morning today on the key that we are going

119
00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:38,760
Speaker 1: to do. And I said oil change and look for

120
00:05:38,760 --> 00:05:41,840
Speaker 1: an oil league. And that's when he said, oh yeah,

121
00:05:41,839 --> 00:05:43,480
Speaker 1: And by the way, the oil light has been coming

122
00:05:43,520 --> 00:05:46,240
Speaker 1: on off and on at times at Idol for a

123
00:05:46,240 --> 00:05:48,839
Speaker 1: little while. Well that's sort of important, isn't it, Like

124
00:05:48,880 --> 00:05:51,080
Speaker 1: when are you gonna tell me that? And that's and

125
00:05:51,160 --> 00:05:52,880
Speaker 1: that's part of why, that's the other part of why

126
00:05:52,880 --> 00:05:55,279
Speaker 1: I do the key drop test. I'm trying to get

127
00:05:55,400 --> 00:05:58,520
Speaker 1: you to think, all right, I'm trying to get you

128
00:05:58,560 --> 00:06:02,440
Speaker 1: some when you present things to the mechanic. He's got

129
00:06:02,480 --> 00:06:06,240
Speaker 1: the list. It's not after the fact. Could you imagine

130
00:06:06,240 --> 00:06:07,960
Speaker 1: if I put the if I fixed the oil leak,

131
00:06:07,960 --> 00:06:10,000
Speaker 1: which I did, and oh, by the way, now the

132
00:06:10,000 --> 00:06:12,680
Speaker 1: oil pressure lights coming on? Is it something we did?

133
00:06:12,760 --> 00:06:14,599
Speaker 1: Is it something related to the league? Is it something?

134
00:06:15,120 --> 00:06:17,720
Speaker 1: What's the what's the problem. It's having all the information

135
00:06:17,760 --> 00:06:21,160
Speaker 1: in front of you presents a clear coast, clear, a

136
00:06:21,200 --> 00:06:25,599
Speaker 1: clear direction to success. And that's what that's what order

137
00:06:25,600 --> 00:06:28,120
Speaker 1: repairs about. Right. We're just trying to be successful. Yeah,

138
00:06:28,120 --> 00:06:29,680
Speaker 1: we're trying to make money because that's what we do.

139
00:06:29,760 --> 00:06:31,200
Speaker 1: That's how we stay in business to come back and

140
00:06:31,200 --> 00:06:33,279
Speaker 1: help you the next time. But we're just trying to

141
00:06:33,320 --> 00:06:35,560
Speaker 1: get a clear direction and a clear place to go.

142
00:06:36,880 --> 00:06:38,600
Speaker 1: It turns out we fixed Fred's oil leak because I

143
00:06:38,640 --> 00:06:40,599
Speaker 1: attacked it that way. I said, let's fix the oil

144
00:06:40,640 --> 00:06:42,280
Speaker 1: leak first, friend, let me look at that first. I'm

145
00:06:42,320 --> 00:06:44,520
Speaker 1: not so worried about the trans service. You know, I

146
00:06:44,520 --> 00:06:46,960
Speaker 1: can't solve the oil pressure light. Depending upon what what

147
00:06:47,080 --> 00:06:49,640
Speaker 1: what the oil leak turns into. It could be related,

148
00:06:49,640 --> 00:06:50,880
Speaker 1: it could have nothing to do with it. But I've

149
00:06:50,880 --> 00:06:52,359
Speaker 1: got to solve that first. So I put it up

150
00:06:52,360 --> 00:06:54,600
Speaker 1: in the air. We washed it down and we didn't

151
00:06:54,600 --> 00:06:56,599
Speaker 1: have to do much. It wasn't a hard leak to

152
00:06:56,640 --> 00:06:59,720
Speaker 1: find the oil pressure. I'm sorry. The oil filter housing

153
00:06:59,760 --> 00:07:02,920
Speaker 1: had a pressure leak. It was just p and oil everywhere,

154
00:07:03,600 --> 00:07:05,600
Speaker 1: and it was very obvious that it was leaking right

155
00:07:05,600 --> 00:07:08,200
Speaker 1: out of the housing. Fred, you need an oil pressure housing,

156
00:07:08,440 --> 00:07:11,240
Speaker 1: the filter housing rather, I'm sorry, Um, you need the

157
00:07:11,360 --> 00:07:13,440
Speaker 1: entire housing. On the left, saw passenger side of the

158
00:07:13,440 --> 00:07:16,280
Speaker 1: engine held on four bolts. Kya had one in stock,

159
00:07:16,320 --> 00:07:18,000
Speaker 1: which told me, yeah, this is common. It's a nice

160
00:07:18,000 --> 00:07:22,360
Speaker 1: big piece of plastic mounted to the aluminum engine. But

161
00:07:22,400 --> 00:07:23,720
Speaker 1: I said, I don't know that that's gonna fix your

162
00:07:23,760 --> 00:07:27,160
Speaker 1: oil pressure issue. So he said, you know what, let's

163
00:07:27,160 --> 00:07:30,000
Speaker 1: start here. I said, we gotta start somewhere so we

164
00:07:30,320 --> 00:07:32,880
Speaker 1: you know, and I never saw the oil pressure, Like,

165
00:07:32,920 --> 00:07:34,880
Speaker 1: come on, I gotta tell you that that's the that

166
00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:38,880
Speaker 1: was the crazy part, right, So we you know, did

167
00:07:38,880 --> 00:07:41,520
Speaker 1: the oil filter housing and started it up and let

168
00:07:41,520 --> 00:07:43,000
Speaker 1: it run a good long time, which I couldn't do

169
00:07:43,040 --> 00:07:45,360
Speaker 1: before because it was leaking oil everywhere. It was leaving

170
00:07:45,360 --> 00:07:48,320
Speaker 1: trails and puddles. And the oil leak was fixed. No

171
00:07:48,440 --> 00:07:51,360
Speaker 1: more trails, no more puddles, no more leak, and I

172
00:07:51,440 --> 00:07:55,760
Speaker 1: waited and I waited, and twenty minutes went by, and

173
00:07:55,800 --> 00:07:57,720
Speaker 1: finally it got hot enough. I went back out. I

174
00:07:57,800 --> 00:07:59,520
Speaker 1: was walking past it, going to get another car, and

175
00:07:59,520 --> 00:08:01,640
Speaker 1: it happened to look in, and sure enough, the oil

176
00:08:01,720 --> 00:08:03,920
Speaker 1: light was on. And then it went out, and then

177
00:08:03,920 --> 00:08:06,280
Speaker 1: it went on, and I redded it up a little

178
00:08:06,280 --> 00:08:08,120
Speaker 1: bit when it was on, and it went right out,

179
00:08:08,680 --> 00:08:10,520
Speaker 1: and then it came on again while I was while

180
00:08:10,520 --> 00:08:14,640
Speaker 1: I was, you know, off idle, and then it went out. Okay, fred,

181
00:08:14,640 --> 00:08:16,600
Speaker 1: I got good news. I got bad news. I fixed

182
00:08:16,640 --> 00:08:19,120
Speaker 1: your oil leak. But you have an oil pressure problem,

183
00:08:19,240 --> 00:08:22,560
Speaker 1: or you have an indicator problem, I said, let me

184
00:08:22,600 --> 00:08:27,520
Speaker 1: do a little more research. So Kia, in their infinite wisdom,

185
00:08:27,520 --> 00:08:29,880
Speaker 1: because where else would you put it, decided to put

186
00:08:29,920 --> 00:08:33,000
Speaker 1: the oil pressure center on this particular V six engine

187
00:08:33,559 --> 00:08:36,320
Speaker 1: underneath the intake manifold. Why would you make it accessible?

188
00:08:37,240 --> 00:08:40,679
Speaker 1: So in order to do any kind of testing for

189
00:08:40,760 --> 00:08:44,360
Speaker 1: oil pressure, you have to remove the intake plenum to

190
00:08:44,480 --> 00:08:46,480
Speaker 1: get to the sending unit, to take that out to

191
00:08:46,520 --> 00:08:49,200
Speaker 1: put your gauge into read mechanical pressure. I'm not quite

192
00:08:49,200 --> 00:08:51,760
Speaker 1: sure what they were thinking. I didn't find any of

193
00:08:51,800 --> 00:08:55,240
Speaker 1: their self taps anywhere on the engine. So I applied

194
00:08:55,280 --> 00:08:57,360
Speaker 1: a little logic. Let's put a little logic to this.

195
00:08:57,480 --> 00:09:00,480
Speaker 1: You know, logic and smart sometimes wins out over course

196
00:09:00,480 --> 00:09:04,160
Speaker 1: of action. This is a variable valve timing engine. For

197
00:09:04,200 --> 00:09:05,800
Speaker 1: those of you who don't know what that means v

198
00:09:05,920 --> 00:09:08,640
Speaker 1: v T, right, the auto industry is full of abbreviations

199
00:09:08,640 --> 00:09:12,080
Speaker 1: and acronyms. Vv T stands for a variable valve timing

200
00:09:13,120 --> 00:09:16,320
Speaker 1: And what that means is they are going to change

201
00:09:16,320 --> 00:09:20,200
Speaker 1: the position of internal engine parts at the right moment

202
00:09:20,800 --> 00:09:23,600
Speaker 1: to make things happen in a in a slightly advanced

203
00:09:24,559 --> 00:09:29,000
Speaker 1: sequence or a retarded sequence. And what they're trying to

204
00:09:29,080 --> 00:09:33,720
Speaker 1: do is get maximum performance, maximum mileage, and you know,

205
00:09:34,320 --> 00:09:37,360
Speaker 1: best performance out of the vehicle they can. How do

206
00:09:37,400 --> 00:09:41,319
Speaker 1: they do that? Well, they they open up a solenoid,

207
00:09:41,360 --> 00:09:43,960
Speaker 1: which is an electrical device that opens up a passageway,

208
00:09:44,040 --> 00:09:46,760
Speaker 1: and they allow oil pressure to push the cam this

209
00:09:46,840 --> 00:09:50,880
Speaker 1: way or that way. So if we had low oil pressure,

210
00:09:51,240 --> 00:09:54,600
Speaker 1: wouldn't it be logical, I said to myself, Because they're

211
00:09:54,640 --> 00:09:58,079
Speaker 1: monitoring oil pressure, they're monitoring valve timing. If they tell

212
00:09:58,120 --> 00:10:00,360
Speaker 1: the cam to advance two degrees five to there's ten

213
00:10:00,400 --> 00:10:03,120
Speaker 1: degrees whatever, and they don't see that advancement. It's gonna

214
00:10:03,160 --> 00:10:05,280
Speaker 1: set a fault code. You're gonna see check engine lights

215
00:10:05,280 --> 00:10:06,760
Speaker 1: all over the place. It all like light up like

216
00:10:06,800 --> 00:10:10,400
Speaker 1: times square on New Year's While I went and scanned it.

217
00:10:10,559 --> 00:10:14,000
Speaker 1: No fault codes, nothing pending, nothing, nothing hard on. And

218
00:10:14,040 --> 00:10:15,680
Speaker 1: I knew that there was no check engine light on,

219
00:10:15,920 --> 00:10:18,400
Speaker 1: no fault code for a faulty oil pressure switch. Just

220
00:10:18,679 --> 00:10:21,280
Speaker 1: every once in a while i'd see the light. The

221
00:10:21,320 --> 00:10:23,520
Speaker 1: engine tone didn't change either. There was no change. There

222
00:10:23,559 --> 00:10:25,960
Speaker 1: was no clickity clack, there was no lifted noise. There

223
00:10:26,040 --> 00:10:28,000
Speaker 1: was nothing to indicate we had a problem. As a

224
00:10:28,080 --> 00:10:29,600
Speaker 1: matter of fact, as Fred put it, he's gonna put

225
00:10:29,640 --> 00:10:31,640
Speaker 1: his piece of electrical tape over because that's his solution

226
00:10:31,679 --> 00:10:34,240
Speaker 1: for the hundred thousand mile four year old Kia and

227
00:10:34,280 --> 00:10:37,360
Speaker 1: ignore the light for now, and he's gonna see what

228
00:10:37,400 --> 00:10:40,520
Speaker 1: happens because it's been going on for a while. But

229
00:10:40,559 --> 00:10:42,320
Speaker 1: I told him, I said, I don't think you have

230
00:10:42,360 --> 00:10:44,160
Speaker 1: a problem, Fred, because if you did, you'd see a

231
00:10:44,200 --> 00:10:46,800
Speaker 1: v V T issue and you don't have that. So

232
00:10:46,880 --> 00:10:50,320
Speaker 1: sometimes logic wins out. Sometimes being the smartest bear in

233
00:10:50,360 --> 00:10:53,960
Speaker 1: the cave wins out, and sometimes just know oning what's

234
00:10:53,960 --> 00:10:55,800
Speaker 1: going on makes you went out, and that's what order

235
00:10:55,800 --> 00:10:59,160
Speaker 1: repairs all about. So just be aware you come by

236
00:10:59,200 --> 00:11:00,840
Speaker 1: the shop, you're gonna get the key drop test. I

237
00:11:00,840 --> 00:11:03,240
Speaker 1: want to see how smart you are. And uh, we'll

238
00:11:03,240 --> 00:11:05,800
Speaker 1: see if you can pass eight five five five zero

239
00:11:06,520 --> 00:11:08,280
Speaker 1: zero running any of the car to document your service.

240
00:11:08,280 --> 00:11:14,040
Speaker 1: I'll be back right after this. Don't go away down

241
00:11:17,080 --> 00:11:28,800
Speaker 1: when you get keep Ron's number hand eight five five

242
00:11:28,960 --> 00:11:31,720
Speaker 1: five six zero nine nine zero zero for when you

243
00:11:31,800 --> 00:11:35,120
Speaker 1: really need advice on your car. Here's Rob. Hey, let's

244
00:11:35,120 --> 00:11:37,000
Speaker 1: get over and talk to Let's go talk to Kevin

245
00:11:37,000 --> 00:11:40,120
Speaker 1: in Florida. Five christ there, three day Kevin. Welcome to

246
00:11:40,120 --> 00:11:43,360
Speaker 1: the car doctor, sir, How can I help Hill? Right?

247
00:11:43,440 --> 00:11:47,120
Speaker 1: Thanks taking my call. You're welcome. What's going on? Well,

248
00:11:47,160 --> 00:11:48,760
Speaker 1: I'm down here in Florida, was just getting ready to

249
00:11:48,760 --> 00:11:50,760
Speaker 1: head back to Massachusetts. And I started my card the

250
00:11:50,760 --> 00:11:53,640
Speaker 1: other day and they won't shift out a load gear

251
00:11:53,840 --> 00:11:57,120
Speaker 1: and it won't leave over three thousand pms. And I

252
00:11:57,160 --> 00:11:58,959
Speaker 1: put the key there and it says it's gonna you

253
00:11:59,200 --> 00:12:01,360
Speaker 1: fourteen seven team, which is I guess an A B.

254
00:12:01,559 --> 00:12:06,240
Speaker 1: S Center problem? Right? So are you a resident of

255
00:12:06,280 --> 00:12:11,599
Speaker 1: Florida or Massachusetts? I'm a resident of Massachusetts sold for

256
00:12:11,679 --> 00:12:14,680
Speaker 1: the winter for a couple more months. So I say,

257
00:12:14,679 --> 00:12:16,440
Speaker 1: I was I was supposed to leave. I was supposed

258
00:12:16,440 --> 00:12:19,520
Speaker 1: to leave back from Massachusetts yesterday. So so the car

259
00:12:19,600 --> 00:12:26,040
Speaker 1: spend the car spends most of its time in Massachusetts, right, Okay,

260
00:12:26,280 --> 00:12:28,760
Speaker 1: So you fourteen seventeen, and I have to point out

261
00:12:28,840 --> 00:12:32,520
Speaker 1: the this generation Chrysler three hundred and three hundred seas

262
00:12:33,320 --> 00:12:37,280
Speaker 1: did some very unique things. Chrysler was really exploring there

263
00:12:37,360 --> 00:12:38,880
Speaker 1: they were you know, how can I say that they

264
00:12:38,880 --> 00:12:42,600
Speaker 1: were exploring their boundaries of logic and common sense? Um,

265
00:12:42,720 --> 00:12:45,440
Speaker 1: this has an This has an a B S wheel

266
00:12:45,440 --> 00:12:48,520
Speaker 1: speed sensor set up in the back, unlike anything else

267
00:12:48,559 --> 00:12:51,160
Speaker 1: they had to date. It's a it should be a

268
00:12:51,200 --> 00:12:54,440
Speaker 1: two wire censor, all right, and it is not. It

269
00:12:54,559 --> 00:12:57,360
Speaker 1: is not a Hall effect, it is not a digital

270
00:12:57,360 --> 00:13:01,560
Speaker 1: style signal. It's a magnetic impulse censor. UM. It's it's

271
00:13:01,640 --> 00:13:03,960
Speaker 1: kind of hard to explain without getting over everybody's head.

272
00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:05,559
Speaker 1: And I'd have to read the article again because I

273
00:13:05,559 --> 00:13:07,440
Speaker 1: remember fixing a bunch of these back in the day.

274
00:13:07,480 --> 00:13:09,960
Speaker 1: They were kind of nasty to deal with. UM. I

275
00:13:09,960 --> 00:13:12,000
Speaker 1: can just tell you that the most common thing to

276
00:13:12,040 --> 00:13:14,080
Speaker 1: look for is and that's why I ask where you lived.

277
00:13:14,760 --> 00:13:17,640
Speaker 1: Um is, I'd be willing to bet that the tone

278
00:13:17,720 --> 00:13:22,079
Speaker 1: ring on the axle is rusted. And if the if

279
00:13:22,120 --> 00:13:25,760
Speaker 1: the tone ring is rusted and the least little amount

280
00:13:25,800 --> 00:13:29,640
Speaker 1: of corrosion gets on there, it deflects and sometimes creates

281
00:13:29,640 --> 00:13:33,199
Speaker 1: a disruption in the magnetic force. Think of a think

282
00:13:33,240 --> 00:13:35,720
Speaker 1: of a three sixty degree circle. Obviously that's what a

283
00:13:35,720 --> 00:13:39,200
Speaker 1: circle has. And you know the magnet cracks and now

284
00:13:39,240 --> 00:13:42,199
Speaker 1: it gets to that that that point where the magnetic

285
00:13:42,240 --> 00:13:47,640
Speaker 1: band isn't perfect, it's it's it's skips and it does

286
00:13:47,679 --> 00:13:49,680
Speaker 1: that in multiple places. Now all of a sudden, it

287
00:13:49,679 --> 00:13:51,880
Speaker 1: doesn't know how fast the left rear wheel is going,

288
00:13:52,320 --> 00:13:56,560
Speaker 1: the rear wheel speed. Sensors have input an authority over

289
00:13:56,600 --> 00:14:00,760
Speaker 1: transmission operation. There's a genius idea. That's that's the way

290
00:14:00,800 --> 00:14:03,120
Speaker 1: I do it, because you know, it's not it's not

291
00:14:03,160 --> 00:14:05,320
Speaker 1: like the sensors or anything back there is ever gonna fail.

292
00:14:06,080 --> 00:14:10,080
Speaker 1: Um you know, yeah, it's you know why why why

293
00:14:10,120 --> 00:14:13,560
Speaker 1: I wouldn't want to complicate this now you can you

294
00:14:13,559 --> 00:14:15,480
Speaker 1: know some of the basics that you can go after

295
00:14:15,640 --> 00:14:17,880
Speaker 1: is all right, you know, it's it's something that you

296
00:14:17,880 --> 00:14:20,000
Speaker 1: would need a lab scope to test. But you can

297
00:14:20,040 --> 00:14:22,440
Speaker 1: go and look for things like, UM, you know, you

298
00:14:22,480 --> 00:14:25,080
Speaker 1: want to check signal out of the left rear sensor

299
00:14:25,080 --> 00:14:26,760
Speaker 1: if you have a scan tool, just to see does

300
00:14:26,800 --> 00:14:29,840
Speaker 1: it see it. It's probably not going to UM, but

301
00:14:29,880 --> 00:14:32,240
Speaker 1: at least you'll see a signal out of the right rear.

302
00:14:32,800 --> 00:14:34,840
Speaker 1: And then there's a dark green gray wire at that

303
00:14:34,880 --> 00:14:37,880
Speaker 1: wheel speed sensor that should have battery voltage on it.

304
00:14:37,920 --> 00:14:40,440
Speaker 1: And and here's the unique part. That's the signal wire.

305
00:14:40,840 --> 00:14:43,240
Speaker 1: But the voltage only changes about three tents of a

306
00:14:43,320 --> 00:14:47,400
Speaker 1: volt as you turn the wheel slowly. So that's why

307
00:14:47,440 --> 00:14:50,000
Speaker 1: I say it's it's it's not a conventional test. It's

308
00:14:50,040 --> 00:14:52,640
Speaker 1: not like we're doing a C or digital. It's it's

309
00:14:52,680 --> 00:14:55,600
Speaker 1: a it's a magnetic inductive pickup sensor. It's it's really

310
00:14:56,320 --> 00:14:57,840
Speaker 1: I don't know what they were thinking, and they stopped

311
00:14:57,880 --> 00:15:01,320
Speaker 1: using them for a couple of years. I can't imagine why. UM,

312
00:15:01,360 --> 00:15:05,840
Speaker 1: you know, once again the public, any pig I had

313
00:15:05,920 --> 00:15:07,520
Speaker 1: to kind oft to the shop, they're gonna put on

314
00:15:07,520 --> 00:15:09,880
Speaker 1: a scan to on Monday. I just didn't know if

315
00:15:09,880 --> 00:15:11,400
Speaker 1: the scan to it could tell him if it was

316
00:15:11,440 --> 00:15:14,000
Speaker 1: maybe a ground wire, or if it's a center itself,

317
00:15:14,080 --> 00:15:19,120
Speaker 1: or it's a computer failing well, and it's it's likely

318
00:15:19,160 --> 00:15:21,760
Speaker 1: not a computer. I'm not saying it it can't be,

319
00:15:21,800 --> 00:15:23,880
Speaker 1: but it's likely not a computer. I mean you've got

320
00:15:23,880 --> 00:15:26,680
Speaker 1: to go through the steps all right. Um, you know

321
00:15:26,800 --> 00:15:29,600
Speaker 1: it's dark dark green gray has to have battery voltage

322
00:15:29,640 --> 00:15:32,000
Speaker 1: on at the dark green yellow wire is the ground

323
00:15:32,040 --> 00:15:34,440
Speaker 1: leg if you've got ground in battery vault. Did you

324
00:15:34,480 --> 00:15:37,400
Speaker 1: know the circuit coming down is good? So then you're

325
00:15:37,440 --> 00:15:41,480
Speaker 1: down to you know, your suspect of the sensor or

326
00:15:41,680 --> 00:15:43,480
Speaker 1: the tone ring, which the tone ring is part of

327
00:15:43,480 --> 00:15:47,280
Speaker 1: the axle. Now the one the one thing you could

328
00:15:47,280 --> 00:15:49,880
Speaker 1: do is there's a connector back there, connector one oh five.

329
00:15:49,920 --> 00:15:52,640
Speaker 1: I remember this well. Connector one oh five is the

330
00:15:52,720 --> 00:15:55,040
Speaker 1: junction in the middle of the car where the two

331
00:15:55,040 --> 00:15:59,240
Speaker 1: wires from each side meat before they go forward. You

332
00:15:59,280 --> 00:16:02,320
Speaker 1: could you could find that connector and get a wiring

333
00:16:02,320 --> 00:16:04,240
Speaker 1: diagram and go these two it is, these two it

334
00:16:04,280 --> 00:16:07,000
Speaker 1: is and flip them. Make the left front report to

335
00:16:07,040 --> 00:16:09,680
Speaker 1: the make the left rear report to the you know,

336
00:16:09,760 --> 00:16:11,680
Speaker 1: in place of the left ear, swap the right right

337
00:16:11,760 --> 00:16:13,560
Speaker 1: and the right rear for the left ear, and now

338
00:16:13,560 --> 00:16:15,400
Speaker 1: put the car together. Clear the codes and what Fauld

339
00:16:15,440 --> 00:16:17,080
Speaker 1: code do you get do you get a fault code

340
00:16:17,120 --> 00:16:19,320
Speaker 1: for a right rear? If you get a fuld code

341
00:16:19,320 --> 00:16:21,760
Speaker 1: for a right rear, it's the left rear sensor reporting.

342
00:16:22,000 --> 00:16:23,760
Speaker 1: Now you know it's either the censor or the tone

343
00:16:23,800 --> 00:16:29,320
Speaker 1: ring right, you know what is the right rear? Um?

344
00:16:29,360 --> 00:16:32,760
Speaker 1: I don't remember that off the top of my head. Okay,

345
00:16:32,840 --> 00:16:38,720
Speaker 1: all right, but I think it's I think it's fourteen fifteen,

346
00:16:38,760 --> 00:16:41,480
Speaker 1: to tell you the truth. Um. The reason are the

347
00:16:41,520 --> 00:16:43,440
Speaker 1: reason I remember the left is we saw more less

348
00:16:43,440 --> 00:16:46,120
Speaker 1: than right and I never understood that, you know, we

349
00:16:46,160 --> 00:16:48,360
Speaker 1: never we never really saw too many right rear sensors.

350
00:16:48,400 --> 00:16:52,280
Speaker 1: Fill that ringing there, that's something you could clean up.

351
00:16:54,640 --> 00:16:56,280
Speaker 1: You might be able to. You're gonna end up buying

352
00:16:56,280 --> 00:16:58,560
Speaker 1: an axle if if if the axle is rusty, you're

353
00:16:58,560 --> 00:17:00,080
Speaker 1: gonna end up buying an axle in the s s

354
00:17:00,280 --> 00:17:02,920
Speaker 1: will be part of it. Make sure they'd buy a

355
00:17:02,960 --> 00:17:05,399
Speaker 1: good quality axle. And you might end up having to

356
00:17:05,400 --> 00:17:07,320
Speaker 1: go back to Chrysler if it's still available for it,

357
00:17:07,359 --> 00:17:10,040
Speaker 1: which will be interesting. If it's not, you know, it's

358
00:17:10,119 --> 00:17:14,080
Speaker 1: the cars fifteen years old now, so, but so I

359
00:17:14,160 --> 00:17:15,959
Speaker 1: might be staying in Florida a few more days and

360
00:17:15,960 --> 00:17:18,760
Speaker 1: not the worst thing in the world. So, um, well,

361
00:17:18,800 --> 00:17:21,000
Speaker 1: there's too many people down here for me. Oh is it? Well,

362
00:17:21,040 --> 00:17:22,960
Speaker 1: pretty pretty soon they'll be leaving, right, the season is

363
00:17:23,000 --> 00:17:27,359
Speaker 1: gonna be over right, Yeah, but I bet you it's

364
00:17:27,359 --> 00:17:29,920
Speaker 1: gonna be an axle. I really do, coming from Massachusetts

365
00:17:29,960 --> 00:17:32,560
Speaker 1: and knowing the salt and corrosion that's up there. So

366
00:17:33,160 --> 00:17:35,800
Speaker 1: um but you know that trick about swapping wires will

367
00:17:35,800 --> 00:17:37,480
Speaker 1: tell you. That'll that'll tell you which way you want

368
00:17:37,480 --> 00:17:39,800
Speaker 1: to go and in what direction. At least you'll know

369
00:17:39,840 --> 00:17:43,800
Speaker 1: that the circuit test good. Basically why the colmis because

370
00:17:43,800 --> 00:17:45,399
Speaker 1: they're gonna scan it Monday and they didn't know. If

371
00:17:45,440 --> 00:17:47,040
Speaker 1: you know, I can tell them, hey, I just scan

372
00:17:47,119 --> 00:17:49,280
Speaker 1: tool use this boat and see it, see it doing this.

373
00:17:49,359 --> 00:17:51,320
Speaker 1: I know I can get the membormade. Well listen, I'll

374
00:17:51,359 --> 00:17:52,760
Speaker 1: tell you what you could. What you could do is

375
00:17:52,760 --> 00:17:54,360
Speaker 1: if it helps them. And I'm not saying I want

376
00:17:54,359 --> 00:17:57,520
Speaker 1: to oversee anybody else's operation, they can. You know, just

377
00:17:57,720 --> 00:17:59,800
Speaker 1: this show is going to become the broadcast becomes a

Speaker 1: of the Car Doctor at eight five zero zero And geez,

387
00:18:47,000 --> 00:18:48,840
Speaker 1: let's go and talk to Bob and to Nell in

388
00:18:48,880 --> 00:18:50,400
Speaker 1: New Jersey. We don't talked to Bob in a long

389
00:18:50,440 --> 00:18:54,399
Speaker 1: long time. Robert, how are you today? Hey, I'm going

Speaker 1: to congratulate you on hundred uh episodes you've been on

391
00:18:59,800 --> 00:19:02,080
Speaker 1: the Oh that's yeah, Bob, I gotta tell you, it's

392
00:19:02,119 --> 00:19:03,640
Speaker 1: been a while since we talked. That was last year

393
00:19:03,640 --> 00:19:05,399
Speaker 1: where you've been brother. But yeah, we appreciate that. We

394
00:19:05,400 --> 00:19:11,159
Speaker 1: appreciate the compliment. We really do. Um alright, call I

395
00:19:11,359 --> 00:19:19,960
Speaker 1: was distractions that anyway. Congratulations many hours. Yeah, my body knows, um,

396
00:19:20,359 --> 00:19:24,679
Speaker 1: trust me, my body knows. It's it's really you know,

397
00:19:24,760 --> 00:19:27,920
Speaker 1: it's really hard to believe that, you know, it's I

398
00:19:27,920 --> 00:19:30,480
Speaker 1: think this year we didn't even acknowledge it too much.

399
00:19:30,480 --> 00:19:33,800
Speaker 1: But I think we're in our thirties. Second year. That

400
00:19:33,880 --> 00:19:36,000
Speaker 1: sounds about right. I think this is your thirty two

401
00:19:36,000 --> 00:19:38,680
Speaker 1: of broadcasting, so we must be doing something right there.

402
00:19:38,760 --> 00:19:40,159
Speaker 1: They haven't. They haven't run us out of town on

403
00:19:40,160 --> 00:19:47,520
Speaker 1: a rail yet. So two years yeah, I know, I remember. Yeah,

404
00:19:47,840 --> 00:19:51,400
Speaker 1: So what's going on? What can I do for you? Yeah?

405
00:19:51,480 --> 00:19:54,840
Speaker 1: The headlights on the eighth three or getting cloudy? You know,

406
00:19:55,000 --> 00:19:58,400
Speaker 1: the plastic and everything, and is there any products out

407
00:19:58,440 --> 00:20:01,879
Speaker 1: there that really work when we darn we use and

408
00:20:01,880 --> 00:20:04,600
Speaker 1: we've tried a bunch of different things in the shop.

409
00:20:04,720 --> 00:20:07,040
Speaker 1: We use the three M thirty nine double O eight kid,

410
00:20:07,080 --> 00:20:09,440
Speaker 1: I think it's double eight or triple O eight. And

411
00:20:09,560 --> 00:20:11,680
Speaker 1: the thing we like about it is it's it's low cost.

412
00:20:11,800 --> 00:20:14,600
Speaker 1: They give you the material, they give you the polishing

413
00:20:14,600 --> 00:20:17,280
Speaker 1: and the and and the cleaning pads. We can use

414
00:20:17,320 --> 00:20:19,560
Speaker 1: it with a power tool. We have a cordless buffer.

415
00:20:20,000 --> 00:20:22,439
Speaker 1: You need a little handheld cordless buffer because it just

416
00:20:22,480 --> 00:20:25,280
Speaker 1: becomes a lot of standing. It'll take us anywhere from

417
00:20:25,320 --> 00:20:27,879
Speaker 1: it'll take us anywhere from an hour and fifteen to

418
00:20:27,920 --> 00:20:29,679
Speaker 1: an hour and a half to really do a settle

419
00:20:29,760 --> 00:20:32,359
Speaker 1: lights right. Um. You know, by the time you tape

420
00:20:32,359 --> 00:20:34,119
Speaker 1: off the corner so you don't hit the paint, and

421
00:20:34,760 --> 00:20:37,080
Speaker 1: you know, then clean and polish and it's it's it's

422
00:20:37,119 --> 00:20:39,480
Speaker 1: a process like sanding anything else. You're just you know,

423
00:20:39,520 --> 00:20:42,040
Speaker 1: it just takes time to um work your way through

424
00:20:42,040 --> 00:20:43,720
Speaker 1: from the different grits all the way up to the

425
00:20:43,760 --> 00:20:45,919
Speaker 1: finishing compound. And then the most important thing when you're

426
00:20:45,960 --> 00:20:48,760
Speaker 1: done is to wax it. And yeah, I mean it's

427
00:20:48,920 --> 00:20:51,600
Speaker 1: we really like the three M stuff. It works well.

428
00:20:51,640 --> 00:20:54,040
Speaker 1: We've tried a bunch of different things and um just

429
00:20:54,040 --> 00:20:56,040
Speaker 1: takes a little elbow grease and patience on a warm

430
00:20:56,080 --> 00:20:58,159
Speaker 1: Saturday afternoon, sitting on a milk crate, listening to the

431
00:20:58,160 --> 00:21:02,800
Speaker 1: car doctor and your driveway. Uh, you know that'll do it. So, Uh,

432
00:21:03,119 --> 00:21:07,679
Speaker 1: it isn't an inspection it now it's no longer an

433
00:21:07,720 --> 00:21:10,440
Speaker 1: inspection item. You see a New Jersey. New Jersey says

434
00:21:10,480 --> 00:21:12,639
Speaker 1: we're a safe state and we don't need to inspect

435
00:21:12,720 --> 00:21:18,280
Speaker 1: anything related to safety. UM. Glass lights, um wipers, front

436
00:21:18,359 --> 00:21:21,720
Speaker 1: end tires breaks. The only thing New Jersey cares about

437
00:21:22,080 --> 00:21:26,399
Speaker 1: is the check engine light on and check engine light on.

438
00:21:26,680 --> 00:21:28,840
Speaker 1: That's kind of it. Um. They want to make sure

439
00:21:28,840 --> 00:21:31,960
Speaker 1: the odometer is working. Uh, you know, the emissions is

440
00:21:31,960 --> 00:21:34,080
Speaker 1: the emissions equipment in place, and after that it's up

441
00:21:34,080 --> 00:21:35,920
Speaker 1: to the roadside inspectors to get it. And I say

442
00:21:35,960 --> 00:21:38,760
Speaker 1: that kind of as you can tell them a little jaundice,

443
00:21:38,800 --> 00:21:40,520
Speaker 1: because I think the whole thing is ridiculous. I think

444
00:21:40,520 --> 00:21:44,280
Speaker 1: it should be about safety, but you know it's it's

445
00:21:44,840 --> 00:21:47,040
Speaker 1: you know, I look around at the cars on the road, Bob,

446
00:21:47,119 --> 00:21:51,240
Speaker 1: and I just I cringe because I'm thinking, you know,

447
00:21:51,280 --> 00:21:53,000
Speaker 1: I look at some of these cars and parking lots

448
00:21:53,000 --> 00:21:56,159
Speaker 1: with bald tires and warrant edges, and you know, cyclops,

449
00:21:56,200 --> 00:21:59,480
Speaker 1: cars coming down the road missing a headlight. I've had

450
00:21:59,480 --> 00:22:02,159
Speaker 1: this converse sation with motor vehicle in New Jersey. I

451
00:22:02,200 --> 00:22:04,600
Speaker 1: can you know you could bring me a car with

452
00:22:04,680 --> 00:22:07,760
Speaker 1: no windshield, true story, You could bring me a car

453
00:22:07,800 --> 00:22:11,040
Speaker 1: with no windshield and it would pass inspection in New Jersey.

454
00:22:11,560 --> 00:22:13,600
Speaker 1: It wouldn't be legal. You can get it. You can

455
00:22:13,640 --> 00:22:16,080
Speaker 1: get a ticket, but you'll get a sticker. And I've

456
00:22:16,080 --> 00:22:18,200
Speaker 1: had motor vehicle Tom find a place to put the

457
00:22:18,240 --> 00:22:24,280
Speaker 1: sticker and get the car out the door. Okay, Hey yeah, um, yeah,

458
00:22:24,560 --> 00:22:28,120
Speaker 1: makes you wonder. So how's the volkswagons? No more volkswagons?

459
00:22:28,400 --> 00:22:31,880
Speaker 1: Are you an auty man now or no more volkswagons? Yeah?

460
00:22:31,920 --> 00:22:34,879
Speaker 1: I still got the sixty five beetle and the nineties

461
00:22:35,000 --> 00:22:39,520
Speaker 1: very convertible and uh going just find those two cars.

462
00:22:39,560 --> 00:22:43,399
Speaker 1: Don't you need to be inspection or anything, but at

463
00:22:43,480 --> 00:22:46,280
Speaker 1: least you know, I keep them safe with tires and

464
00:22:46,359 --> 00:22:49,240
Speaker 1: brakes and do what you're supposed to do. You would,

465
00:22:49,240 --> 00:22:51,840
Speaker 1: you would do the due diligence role. That's all you

466
00:22:51,880 --> 00:22:53,760
Speaker 1: can do. But you would do the due diligence you're

467
00:22:54,440 --> 00:22:56,600
Speaker 1: you know you have you have well you have to

468
00:22:56,640 --> 00:22:58,520
Speaker 1: because you understand what can go wrong with a car.

469
00:22:58,600 --> 00:23:01,520
Speaker 1: When you know when a tire fails and speed, Uh

470
00:23:01,560 --> 00:23:04,440
Speaker 1: you know it's it's people. There's a lot of disregard

471
00:23:04,480 --> 00:23:06,480
Speaker 1: that we're off topic. Listen, I'll tell you the story

472
00:23:06,520 --> 00:23:09,600
Speaker 1: real quick. A kid came down from the high school yesterday. Um,

473
00:23:09,680 --> 00:23:11,680
Speaker 1: he had to be doing if he was doing sixty

474
00:23:11,720 --> 00:23:14,600
Speaker 1: he was doing sixty five on the side street. Four

475
00:23:14,680 --> 00:23:18,239
Speaker 1: kids in a Honda Accord um flying by where all

476
00:23:18,240 --> 00:23:20,080
Speaker 1: the other kids are walking. And I'm thinking, this kid

477
00:23:20,080 --> 00:23:23,760
Speaker 1: has no appreciation for what a vehicle can do. Uh,

478
00:23:23,800 --> 00:23:26,160
Speaker 1: you know, God, God forbid he loses a tire, God

479
00:23:26,200 --> 00:23:29,520
Speaker 1: forbid somebody runs out in the street. Um, you know

480
00:23:29,800 --> 00:23:32,040
Speaker 1: it's you got to understand that's a two ton missile

481
00:23:32,040 --> 00:23:34,400
Speaker 1: going down the road, and it's it's got a mind

482
00:23:34,400 --> 00:23:37,639
Speaker 1: of its own. So but they spend more money for

483
00:23:37,720 --> 00:23:40,560
Speaker 1: the sound systems and there they want to bounce corders

484
00:23:40,640 --> 00:23:45,879
Speaker 1: off the roof inside of it. That's that's how they

485
00:23:45,880 --> 00:23:48,040
Speaker 1: can claim they're definitely tell him to do something. What

486
00:23:48,160 --> 00:23:51,560
Speaker 1: you want me to do? What? So, Robert, I gotta go. Listen.

487
00:23:51,560 --> 00:23:54,280
Speaker 1: You'll be well, and you know we'll see you soon.

488
00:23:55,160 --> 00:23:58,200
Speaker 1: You too, be good, brother, You're very welcome. Let's get

489
00:23:58,200 --> 00:24:02,400
Speaker 1: on over. Oh, let's go to Richard in Tennessee. Intermittent,

490
00:24:02,400 --> 00:24:04,159
Speaker 1: Miss Richard. Welcome to the car doctor, sir, how can

491
00:24:04,160 --> 00:24:08,120
Speaker 1: I help there? Yes, sir, how can I help? I got?

492
00:24:08,400 --> 00:24:13,320
Speaker 1: I got a nine nine Ford F one pickup truck.

493
00:24:14,320 --> 00:24:17,239
Speaker 1: It's got the four six engine in a V eight

494
00:24:18,520 --> 00:24:26,040
Speaker 1: and intimately when an idland it's missing. A couple of

495
00:24:26,080 --> 00:24:29,040
Speaker 1: times it even felt like maybe it was going to die,

496
00:24:29,200 --> 00:24:33,240
Speaker 1: but but it did never did Diet know once you

497
00:24:34,000 --> 00:24:38,240
Speaker 1: you know, stopping the red lighting. But the intermiss not

498
00:24:38,680 --> 00:24:42,320
Speaker 1: too often really hasn't turned it has not turned on

499
00:24:42,359 --> 00:24:45,280
Speaker 1: a check engine light yet. I assume well, right, the

500
00:24:45,440 --> 00:24:51,600
Speaker 1: check engine light, yes, has been on for two months? Okay,

501
00:24:52,840 --> 00:24:56,040
Speaker 1: and i've had. I haven't taken it to a legitimate

502
00:24:56,080 --> 00:25:00,639
Speaker 1: place yet. It ran fine, what are the what are

503
00:25:00,640 --> 00:25:04,920
Speaker 1: the illegitimate places? Told you? Uh, they said, let's talking

504
00:25:04,920 --> 00:25:09,080
Speaker 1: about injectors. Something with the injectors. No, no, I'm you know, yeah,

505
00:25:09,240 --> 00:25:12,080
Speaker 1: the Uh, well, I got a son that that does

506
00:25:12,119 --> 00:25:15,080
Speaker 1: some mechanic work. He's got one of the orre. He

507
00:25:15,160 --> 00:25:17,240
Speaker 1: called the machine to put hook on there. And then

508
00:25:17,240 --> 00:25:19,440
Speaker 1: I went to auto zone and they both told me

509
00:25:19,880 --> 00:25:25,200
Speaker 1: that the code is showing something with the injectors. So

510
00:25:25,320 --> 00:25:29,800
Speaker 1: I did. I did run some different injectors, you know,

511
00:25:29,880 --> 00:25:34,119
Speaker 1: with the gas seat foam whatever ever tanked. I've been

512
00:25:34,160 --> 00:25:37,000
Speaker 1: putting something in there. But that uh. But then like

513
00:25:37,080 --> 00:25:41,159
Speaker 1: it's been about a month ago. Uh. That that the intermittent,

514
00:25:41,680 --> 00:25:44,600
Speaker 1: and I just course, I'm just curious at what point

515
00:25:44,760 --> 00:25:47,080
Speaker 1: it is just just gonna let me set that's what that's

516
00:25:47,119 --> 00:25:49,720
Speaker 1: what I'm thinking. So let's let's let's let's talk about

517
00:25:49,800 --> 00:25:51,920
Speaker 1: this a minute, all right, Richard. Let's I'll tell you what.

518
00:25:52,000 --> 00:25:54,199
Speaker 1: Let's pull over, take a pause, sit tight, and when

519
00:25:54,240 --> 00:25:56,080
Speaker 1: we come back, we'll finish up. Don't go anywhere, because

520
00:25:56,080 --> 00:25:57,840
Speaker 1: I've got some answers for you, and I've got a procedure.

521
00:25:57,880 --> 00:25:59,640
Speaker 1: I want you to follow. I'm running any in the car, doctor,

522
00:25:59,680 --> 00:26:13,840
Speaker 1: I'll be bad right after this. Welcome back or on

523
00:26:13,880 --> 00:26:17,280
Speaker 1: any of the car doctor here five five zero, Richard,

524
00:26:17,320 --> 00:26:20,879
Speaker 1: you're still there in Tennessee. So let's let's talk a

525
00:26:20,880 --> 00:26:23,679
Speaker 1: little bit about an engine that misses. All right, what

526
00:26:23,800 --> 00:26:25,320
Speaker 1: you do? What you do for a living in life?

527
00:26:25,400 --> 00:26:31,320
Speaker 1: Rich I was an all right. Cool. So you've been

528
00:26:31,359 --> 00:26:33,320
Speaker 1: around it long enough. You you know the lingo, you

529
00:26:33,359 --> 00:26:37,480
Speaker 1: know the deal. So if if you got up from

530
00:26:37,480 --> 00:26:39,280
Speaker 1: where you're sitting and walked to the door and walked

531
00:26:39,280 --> 00:26:44,720
Speaker 1: at a normal pace, you were running smoothly, right, Okay,

532
00:26:44,960 --> 00:26:47,360
Speaker 1: if you stumbled along the way, not that I want

533
00:26:47,359 --> 00:26:51,080
Speaker 1: to see. Do that you you you skipped, You stumbled,

534
00:26:51,080 --> 00:26:56,520
Speaker 1: You didn't run smoothly. You missed right, just like an engine. Okay,

535
00:26:57,400 --> 00:27:00,679
Speaker 1: I don't care if it's your Ford pick up, you're lawnmower,

536
00:27:00,840 --> 00:27:05,080
Speaker 1: your snowmobile, your motorcycle, whatever, it's the you know, an

537
00:27:05,080 --> 00:27:07,600
Speaker 1: engine is an engine. It misses for one of three

538
00:27:07,640 --> 00:27:17,400
Speaker 1: common reasons. It's either ignition related, fuel related, or something mechanical. Agreed, Okay,

539
00:27:18,200 --> 00:27:20,600
Speaker 1: the fact that this comes and goes and it's intermittent,

540
00:27:21,800 --> 00:27:25,240
Speaker 1: it's not likely mechanical. There are not too many scenarios

541
00:27:25,280 --> 00:27:29,320
Speaker 1: of a mechanical failure. I've seen some, but it's not common.

542
00:27:29,320 --> 00:27:32,000
Speaker 1: We're trying to talk about common things here, all right.

543
00:27:32,520 --> 00:27:35,040
Speaker 1: You know some of the some of the uncommon mechanical

544
00:27:35,119 --> 00:27:38,600
Speaker 1: failures is you're the lucky guy that gets the weird

545
00:27:38,640 --> 00:27:41,520
Speaker 1: intake valve spring that winds up and winds down. It's

546
00:27:41,560 --> 00:27:43,640
Speaker 1: broken and it splits and allows the valve to hang

547
00:27:43,680 --> 00:27:45,439
Speaker 1: open a little bit and then it self seals, or

548
00:27:45,440 --> 00:27:48,160
Speaker 1: the valve seats fallen out of the head. Weird mechanical

549
00:27:48,240 --> 00:27:51,680
Speaker 1: things that could happen, but not common. So when we're

550
00:27:51,720 --> 00:27:54,439
Speaker 1: dealing with an intermittent, we generally take mechanical off the

551
00:27:54,480 --> 00:27:57,359
Speaker 1: table for the moment. So we're gonna talk about fuel

552
00:27:57,400 --> 00:28:02,199
Speaker 1: and ignition, all right. Fuel is you know, you go

553
00:28:02,240 --> 00:28:04,160
Speaker 1: out to mow the lawn, you pull the you pull

554
00:28:04,240 --> 00:28:06,000
Speaker 1: the start, you turn on the choke, and you leave

555
00:28:06,000 --> 00:28:07,840
Speaker 1: the choke on and after a while it starts to

556
00:28:07,880 --> 00:28:10,000
Speaker 1: do what. It starts to run rough and buck and

557
00:28:10,080 --> 00:28:13,000
Speaker 1: chug and miss and black smoke. And you know it's

558
00:28:13,040 --> 00:28:15,640
Speaker 1: a fuel mixture problem that's making the engine run rough,

559
00:28:15,680 --> 00:28:19,760
Speaker 1: that's making it skip because it's got an incorrect amount

560
00:28:19,840 --> 00:28:26,560
Speaker 1: of fuel of gasoline to oxygen correct correct, So you know,

561
00:28:26,840 --> 00:28:29,800
Speaker 1: if this was a fuel related fault, the other thing

562
00:28:29,840 --> 00:28:32,120
Speaker 1: you would be explaining to me is ron I'm using

563
00:28:32,119 --> 00:28:35,840
Speaker 1: an inordinate amount of gasoline. Maybe you're seeing black smoke

564
00:28:35,880 --> 00:28:39,200
Speaker 1: out the tailpipe. Maybe not. Catalytic converters do a great

565
00:28:39,240 --> 00:28:41,840
Speaker 1: job of cleaning things up today, but I usually get

566
00:28:41,840 --> 00:28:46,080
Speaker 1: a fuel smell complaint, a hard start complaint, a crank complaints,

567
00:28:46,080 --> 00:28:48,160
Speaker 1: something else comes with it. So I'm gonna make the

568
00:28:48,200 --> 00:28:51,400
Speaker 1: assumption this is ignition. Assumption is a dangerous word, but

569
00:28:51,440 --> 00:28:55,360
Speaker 1: that's usually where the Ford vs take us. All right,

570
00:28:56,520 --> 00:28:58,640
Speaker 1: I want you to go back to auto zone and

571
00:28:58,720 --> 00:29:01,200
Speaker 1: ask them specifically. Don't want you to ask them what's

572
00:29:01,240 --> 00:29:03,040
Speaker 1: wrong with it, but I want you to go back

573
00:29:03,080 --> 00:29:05,680
Speaker 1: to auto zone, ask them to rescan it, and what

574
00:29:05,840 --> 00:29:10,640
Speaker 1: fault code do they get? All right? I don't, I don't.

575
00:29:10,640 --> 00:29:12,440
Speaker 1: I don't want them to diagnose it. I just want

576
00:29:12,480 --> 00:29:14,600
Speaker 1: information from them, and they're great at that. They'll give

577
00:29:14,600 --> 00:29:18,640
Speaker 1: you a great information, all right. I think that I

578
00:29:18,680 --> 00:29:20,480
Speaker 1: think they're gonna come back and tell you it's either

579
00:29:20,520 --> 00:29:24,160
Speaker 1: a P zero three hundred, which is a random multiple misfire.

580
00:29:24,480 --> 00:29:27,200
Speaker 1: Notice I did not say ignition. I just said random

581
00:29:27,240 --> 00:29:30,440
Speaker 1: multiple misfire. You're walking to the door and you misstep

582
00:29:30,520 --> 00:29:34,680
Speaker 1: three or four times, random multiple misfire. Or maybe you'll

583
00:29:34,720 --> 00:29:38,040
Speaker 1: get lucky and it's gonna tell you P zero three

584
00:29:38,040 --> 00:29:41,720
Speaker 1: oh two, which tells us that's a misfire on cylinder

585
00:29:41,800 --> 00:29:46,080
Speaker 1: number two. All right, at least if we have a

586
00:29:46,120 --> 00:29:48,600
Speaker 1: cylinder that we can idea that the computer is picking

587
00:29:48,680 --> 00:29:51,360
Speaker 1: up and flagging. Now we have a direction. Now we

588
00:29:51,440 --> 00:29:55,000
Speaker 1: have a cylinder to attack. And then the simple things

589
00:29:55,000 --> 00:29:56,960
Speaker 1: we're gonna do. Let's say it's let's say it is

590
00:29:57,120 --> 00:30:01,320
Speaker 1: number two cylinder. All right, we're gonna take We're gonna

591
00:30:01,320 --> 00:30:04,280
Speaker 1: take the easiest way to diagnosis is take the ignition

592
00:30:04,320 --> 00:30:07,640
Speaker 1: coil out of number two and swap it with Swap

593
00:30:07,640 --> 00:30:11,680
Speaker 1: it with number four. Pick an easy one, right, take

594
00:30:11,720 --> 00:30:13,880
Speaker 1: the spark, take the spark plug out of number two

595
00:30:13,880 --> 00:30:19,840
Speaker 1: and swap it with number one. Okay, now you've got

596
00:30:19,840 --> 00:30:21,840
Speaker 1: the Now you've got the coil for number two in

597
00:30:21,880 --> 00:30:23,880
Speaker 1: a different cylinder and the plug for number two in

598
00:30:23,920 --> 00:30:28,840
Speaker 1: a different cylinder. Correct, go for a rod. Clear the

599
00:30:28,880 --> 00:30:32,120
Speaker 1: codes and go for a rod. What code comes back?

600
00:30:33,520 --> 00:30:36,440
Speaker 1: If a misfire is being reported on cylinder four. What's

601
00:30:36,440 --> 00:30:43,720
Speaker 1: wrong with the truck? Bad coil? Right, we put the

602
00:30:43,720 --> 00:30:45,920
Speaker 1: coil in number four. We put the plug in number one.

603
00:30:46,040 --> 00:30:47,760
Speaker 1: If it comes back with a misfire on one, we

604
00:30:47,800 --> 00:30:49,680
Speaker 1: got a bad plug. If it comes back with a

605
00:30:49,720 --> 00:30:56,400
Speaker 1: misfire on number two, what's the problem. Probably probably in it, well,

606
00:30:56,440 --> 00:31:03,400
Speaker 1: probably an injector or something mechanical. But what I but

607
00:31:03,480 --> 00:31:06,160
Speaker 1: what I just described to you is probably every bit

608
00:31:06,200 --> 00:31:08,280
Speaker 1: of forty five minutes to an hour's worth of work.

609
00:31:09,800 --> 00:31:12,280
Speaker 1: And it just gives us a good, solid diagnosis. We're

610
00:31:12,320 --> 00:31:17,440
Speaker 1: not jumping around, we're not guessing, we're not playing hop scotch. Okay.

611
00:31:18,040 --> 00:31:19,800
Speaker 1: The other thing, the other thing I want you to

612
00:31:19,800 --> 00:31:22,720
Speaker 1: try and do. And I'm not sure if AutoZone will

613
00:31:22,760 --> 00:31:24,360
Speaker 1: do this, if they'll just pull codes or they'll look

614
00:31:24,360 --> 00:31:27,600
Speaker 1: at that, but I would like somebody to look at

615
00:31:27,640 --> 00:31:33,239
Speaker 1: fuel trim. All right, you know what's your heart rate

616
00:31:33,280 --> 00:31:36,160
Speaker 1: and blood pressure? Rich? You know what's supposed to be

617
00:31:36,960 --> 00:31:39,000
Speaker 1: eight you were in the body shop. Business is probably

618
00:31:39,000 --> 00:31:41,080
Speaker 1: a little higher, God bless you. So a little bit

619
00:31:41,080 --> 00:31:44,080
Speaker 1: of stress, a little bit of stress in that business, right, yeah,

620
00:31:44,120 --> 00:31:48,400
Speaker 1: you know, but yeah, you know, but you know, we

621
00:31:48,440 --> 00:31:49,680
Speaker 1: want to look at We want to look at heart

622
00:31:49,760 --> 00:31:51,640
Speaker 1: rate and blood pressure. I want to know what fuel

623
00:31:51,640 --> 00:31:56,640
Speaker 1: trim is. Fuel trim is the computer's interpretation of the

624
00:31:56,720 --> 00:32:01,680
Speaker 1: air fuel mixture balanced or not all right, zero zero

625
00:32:01,760 --> 00:32:04,440
Speaker 1: percent short term, zero percent long time. It won't be that,

626
00:32:04,560 --> 00:32:06,760
Speaker 1: but that's what we're shooting for. That's a perfect air

627
00:32:06,800 --> 00:32:09,840
Speaker 1: fuel mixture history and current. But you know there's there's

628
00:32:09,880 --> 00:32:11,800
Speaker 1: tolerances we want to see. You know, we're gonna see

629
00:32:11,800 --> 00:32:16,560
Speaker 1: anywhere's up to short term, anywhere's up to long term.

630
00:32:16,640 --> 00:32:19,000
Speaker 1: But if it comes back with a thirty long term

631
00:32:19,040 --> 00:32:22,200
Speaker 1: fuel trim, I'm gonna tell you this stumble is probably

632
00:32:22,240 --> 00:32:25,480
Speaker 1: more vacuum leak related. And then I'm gonna tell you

633
00:32:25,560 --> 00:32:27,720
Speaker 1: to go look at the PCV valve tubing over on

634
00:32:27,720 --> 00:32:30,560
Speaker 1: the passenger side rear corner of the engine where it

635
00:32:30,600 --> 00:32:33,280
Speaker 1: comes off the planum and feeds the valve cover for

636
00:32:33,320 --> 00:32:35,960
Speaker 1: PCV e venilation and it makes a heck of a

637
00:32:36,000 --> 00:32:38,000
Speaker 1: leak that you'll never find. You will if you use

638
00:32:38,040 --> 00:32:41,720
Speaker 1: a smoke machine. All right, But but before I take

639
00:32:41,760 --> 00:32:44,400
Speaker 1: you down that path and send you over to Redline

640
00:32:44,400 --> 00:32:46,720
Speaker 1: Diagnostics dot com and we start talking about what a

641
00:32:46,720 --> 00:32:50,000
Speaker 1: smoke machine can do. Um, let's let's go back to

642
00:32:50,040 --> 00:32:52,480
Speaker 1: auto zone and let's get some fault codes from them

643
00:32:52,520 --> 00:32:54,720
Speaker 1: first and then work our way forward. This is not

644
00:32:54,760 --> 00:32:59,520
Speaker 1: a hard problem to fix, all right, and we'll take

645
00:32:59,560 --> 00:33:03,640
Speaker 1: it from there. Give me a call when you need more. Alright, alright, sir,

646
00:33:03,760 --> 00:33:07,320
Speaker 1: good luck to you. You're very well. You're very welcome.

647
00:33:07,360 --> 00:33:10,760
Speaker 1: God bless you be well. Eight five zero The car

648
00:33:10,800 --> 00:33:24,720
Speaker 1: doctors coming back right after this. Welcome back. We're on

649
00:33:24,800 --> 00:33:27,320
Speaker 1: a any in the car doctor here Email Jim up

650
00:33:27,320 --> 00:33:29,320
Speaker 1: and on Sable Forks in New York ron seventy one

651
00:33:29,320 --> 00:33:31,560
Speaker 1: thousand miles about three day up at hilly road in

652
00:33:31,600 --> 00:33:35,120
Speaker 1: back two SONA use a little oil every week. I've

653
00:33:35,160 --> 00:33:38,080
Speaker 1: attributed to hilly roads and extreme tempts. No attributed to

654
00:33:38,120 --> 00:33:40,320
Speaker 1: the fact that it's a Hundai. Have you super tickful

655
00:33:40,320 --> 00:33:42,560
Speaker 1: synthetic on all my vehicles for about ten years. That's good.

656
00:33:42,640 --> 00:33:44,880
Speaker 1: Changed the oil and filter every four that's great, and

657
00:33:44,920 --> 00:33:46,520
Speaker 1: I've never had a problem was running. What your take

658
00:33:46,560 --> 00:33:49,520
Speaker 1: on it was? Um, I think you're headed towards potential

659
00:33:49,560 --> 00:33:52,800
Speaker 1: engine issues, Jim, Um, common knowledge. There's a bunch of

660
00:33:52,840 --> 00:33:54,720
Speaker 1: bulletins out on hun days. As a matter of fact,

661
00:33:54,760 --> 00:33:56,360
Speaker 1: you don't mention which engine this is I'm going to

662
00:33:56,440 --> 00:33:59,360
Speaker 1: assume dangerous word is the two leader. They've got some

663
00:33:59,400 --> 00:34:02,600
Speaker 1: engine and ex ended warranty campaigns going on, so just

664
00:34:02,640 --> 00:34:04,600
Speaker 1: be aware that you may start to use more and

665
00:34:04,640 --> 00:34:07,040
Speaker 1: more oil. Recently, the check engine light came on. My

666
00:34:07,040 --> 00:34:08,720
Speaker 1: wife took it to the local dealer. I don't remember

667
00:34:08,719 --> 00:34:10,680
Speaker 1: what the scan said, but the service invoice said large

668
00:34:10,719 --> 00:34:12,400
Speaker 1: vacuum leak go always checked by the tech. But he

669
00:34:12,440 --> 00:34:13,920
Speaker 1: said he couldn't do the smoke test because there was

670
00:34:13,960 --> 00:34:16,759
Speaker 1: too much gas in the car. And that's wrong. So

671
00:34:16,840 --> 00:34:18,480
Speaker 1: I've never seen a condition that we prevent me from

672
00:34:18,520 --> 00:34:20,600
Speaker 1: doing a smoke test on a on a vehicle with

673
00:34:20,640 --> 00:34:23,160
Speaker 1: too much gas in the car. I don't understand that. Um,

674
00:34:23,160 --> 00:34:25,200
Speaker 1: they have to explain that they reset the light because

675
00:34:25,200 --> 00:34:27,560
Speaker 1: it ran fine otherwise and if the light came back on,

676
00:34:27,640 --> 00:34:29,520
Speaker 1: and it did, she thought you'd have to make another appointment,

677
00:34:29,560 --> 00:34:31,080
Speaker 1: which she has done. So the results are still up

678
00:34:31,080 --> 00:34:33,160
Speaker 1: in the air. Yeah, what fault code is it? What

679
00:34:33,360 --> 00:34:35,719
Speaker 1: my thoughts are? What fault code is it for five

680
00:34:35,920 --> 00:34:38,080
Speaker 1: or fifty five large league? I look at the gas cap,

681
00:34:38,160 --> 00:34:40,239
Speaker 1: was it put on right? But it's not because it's repetitive,

682
00:34:40,520 --> 00:34:42,680
Speaker 1: So there's something else going on. Here. You know it's

683
00:34:42,719 --> 00:34:44,880
Speaker 1: evapp system. I don't care what the manufacturer is. They

684
00:34:44,920 --> 00:34:46,759
Speaker 1: have a front door, back door, they've got a purge valve,

685
00:34:46,760 --> 00:34:49,680
Speaker 1: they've got they've got a vent valve. Alright, Hyundays have

686
00:34:49,719 --> 00:34:53,200
Speaker 1: a lot of issues with their canister closed valve, which

687
00:34:53,280 --> 00:34:55,239
Speaker 1: is the valve at the rear by the canister. It's

688
00:34:55,280 --> 00:34:59,279
Speaker 1: normally open um. You can cycle them repeatedly using a

689
00:34:59,360 --> 00:35:02,640
Speaker 1: power pro up ground. You may find that it sticks.

690
00:35:03,200 --> 00:35:05,919
Speaker 1: But you know, the smoke test is only a small

691
00:35:06,000 --> 00:35:07,759
Speaker 1: part of it. A smoke test only tells me there

692
00:35:07,800 --> 00:35:09,319
Speaker 1: is a leak, which we already know there's a leak.

693
00:35:10,000 --> 00:35:11,920
Speaker 1: Obviously there's something else going on here, and I think

694
00:35:11,920 --> 00:35:14,640
Speaker 1: we need to start thinking a component level and perhaps

695
00:35:14,640 --> 00:35:16,759
Speaker 1: push detective take it a little bit further and take

696
00:35:16,800 --> 00:35:18,239
Speaker 1: it back where they have to thank a guest. This way,

697
00:35:18,239 --> 00:35:20,399
Speaker 1: they've got no complaints. Call me if you need more.

698
00:35:20,520 --> 00:35:22,480
Speaker 1: Until the next time I'm running any in the guard Doctor.

699
00:35:22,800 --> 00:35:25,560
Speaker 1: Mechanics aren't expensive, they're priceless. Let's see you
