Do you 49 00:02:23,919 --> 00:02:26,720 Speaker 4: ever think about that? Like, you know, somewhere it had 50 00:02:26,760 --> 00:02:30,680 Speaker 4: to start? And I thought of that this week when 51 00:02:30,919 --> 00:02:33,200 Speaker 4: I started to work on the Money Carlo, you know, 52 00:02:33,200 --> 00:02:35,000 Speaker 4: b seventy two Money Carlo. You guys hear me talk 53 00:02:35,040 --> 00:02:38,240 Speaker 4: about from time to time quiet in the shop. Right now, 54 00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:39,600 Speaker 4: this time of year is kind of quiet, I mean 55 00:02:39,919 --> 00:02:44,400 Speaker 4: pretty historically for a historic low for Ari Automotive. We 56 00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:46,200 Speaker 4: had three cars in the shop this week, which is 57 00:02:46,480 --> 00:02:50,919 Speaker 4: kind of crazy, like it just doesn't happen. But everybody 58 00:02:50,960 --> 00:02:54,400 Speaker 4: around us, everything is slowing down. And is it the 59 00:02:54,440 --> 00:02:56,960 Speaker 4: economy the weather because it's so cold, you know, the 60 00:02:57,000 --> 00:02:59,040 Speaker 4: Northeast is going God, we've seen cold, but it just 61 00:02:59,200 --> 00:03:02,440 Speaker 4: it just doesn't work. So I don't know. So I 62 00:03:02,480 --> 00:03:04,359 Speaker 4: looked at Danny on Monday and I said, let's let's 63 00:03:04,440 --> 00:03:06,639 Speaker 4: let's get going on the manty. Let's see what's going 64 00:03:06,680 --> 00:03:09,880 Speaker 4: on here. We actually started this the week before. There's 65 00:03:09,919 --> 00:03:14,639 Speaker 4: a little piece of vacuum hose that hangs out of 66 00:03:14,639 --> 00:03:16,960 Speaker 4: the firewall on a seventy two Money Carlo and that's 67 00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:20,320 Speaker 4: the main vacuum hose that feeds all the vacuum supply 68 00:03:20,360 --> 00:03:22,280 Speaker 4: and controls for the heat to frost a seed to 69 00:03:22,280 --> 00:03:24,680 Speaker 4: move the doors, because everything was done by vacuum back then. 70 00:03:26,160 --> 00:03:28,280 Speaker 4: And I think if I was going to describe this repair, 71 00:03:29,200 --> 00:03:31,200 Speaker 4: you know, it's one of two ways. It's either here's 72 00:03:31,200 --> 00:03:33,440 Speaker 4: where it all began, because I think that vacuum hose, 73 00:03:33,520 --> 00:03:35,720 Speaker 4: much like the universe, This was the first thing they 74 00:03:35,760 --> 00:03:38,360 Speaker 4: put in the car when they built it right, and 75 00:03:38,400 --> 00:03:40,800 Speaker 4: then they put everything else in because they get to 76 00:03:40,880 --> 00:03:44,920 Speaker 4: this vacuum hose, which the mouse nicely, very thankfully. I'm 77 00:03:44,960 --> 00:03:48,160 Speaker 4: just so glad that this mouse came along shewed it 78 00:03:48,200 --> 00:03:50,280 Speaker 4: off right where it came out of the firewall. I 79 00:03:50,280 --> 00:03:52,720 Speaker 4: mean there was you couldn't cheat and get a little 80 00:03:52,720 --> 00:03:55,040 Speaker 4: bit out to go, oh, we'll just put a you know, 81 00:03:55,760 --> 00:03:58,040 Speaker 4: a piece in, we'll making it that. No, it was 82 00:03:58,120 --> 00:04:03,480 Speaker 4: like he just flushed right with the firewall. I thought 83 00:04:03,480 --> 00:04:07,280 Speaker 4: of snowballs when I started this car. And I'm not 84 00:04:07,320 --> 00:04:08,880 Speaker 4: going to let Tom Ray talk right now because he 85 00:04:08,880 --> 00:04:11,840 Speaker 4: can go up with some really bad thoughts. But you know, 86 00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:15,400 Speaker 4: it was just like the whole thing went. The road 87 00:04:15,440 --> 00:04:18,000 Speaker 4: downhill is paved with ice, because brother, we just slid 88 00:04:18,520 --> 00:04:20,720 Speaker 4: all right. To get to this vacuum line, we had 89 00:04:20,720 --> 00:04:23,320 Speaker 4: to take out the dashboard. Okay, well, we're doing the dashboard, 90 00:04:23,760 --> 00:04:25,680 Speaker 4: we might as well do the gauge conversion because we're 91 00:04:25,680 --> 00:04:27,920 Speaker 4: converting the car from idiot lights to gauges. All right, 92 00:04:28,080 --> 00:04:30,120 Speaker 4: I get that. We mus as well do the radio 93 00:04:30,200 --> 00:04:32,839 Speaker 4: because now we've got easier access to the radio. Okay, 94 00:04:33,120 --> 00:04:35,120 Speaker 4: I get that. We might as well get the seat 95 00:04:35,120 --> 00:04:37,840 Speaker 4: belt warning buzzer that lights up that little light on 96 00:04:37,880 --> 00:04:40,640 Speaker 4: the dashboard that's really annoying and goes all the time 97 00:04:40,640 --> 00:04:43,359 Speaker 4: while you're driving if the seat belts aren't plugged in. 98 00:04:43,680 --> 00:04:49,360 Speaker 4: And just oh hey, listen, we're looking at the back 99 00:04:49,400 --> 00:04:52,640 Speaker 4: of the heater core box. Well, i'll tell you what, 100 00:04:52,839 --> 00:04:55,159 Speaker 4: I'm kind of spoiled. I forgot how much easier it 101 00:04:55,240 --> 00:04:58,320 Speaker 4: was to get the heater cores, or how much easier 102 00:04:58,320 --> 00:04:59,760 Speaker 4: it is to get to some of the heater course today, 103 00:04:59,760 --> 00:05:02,960 Speaker 4: because it was no fun back then. You risk everything 104 00:05:04,560 --> 00:05:07,320 Speaker 4: and might as well do the heater core that's you know, original, 105 00:05:07,480 --> 00:05:10,520 Speaker 4: And since the block needed to be derusted and the 106 00:05:10,600 --> 00:05:13,240 Speaker 4: radiator needed to be replaced because it was so badly rotted, 107 00:05:13,640 --> 00:05:16,279 Speaker 4: that we muscle do a heater core, which that proved 108 00:05:16,279 --> 00:05:19,479 Speaker 4: to be an event unto itself. I had to buy 109 00:05:19,480 --> 00:05:21,760 Speaker 4: two heater cores, all right, and I was tempted to 110 00:05:21,760 --> 00:05:24,360 Speaker 4: buy a third. Not two from the same but two 111 00:05:24,440 --> 00:05:27,160 Speaker 4: from two different vendors, because I said to myself, this 112 00:05:27,240 --> 00:05:29,400 Speaker 4: is going to be like the fifty five Chevy experience. 113 00:05:29,720 --> 00:05:31,520 Speaker 4: You just know one of them is going to work 114 00:05:31,520 --> 00:05:34,239 Speaker 4: and one of them is going to be just close enough. 115 00:05:35,640 --> 00:05:38,480 Speaker 4: So yeah, I was right. The one that we got 116 00:05:38,520 --> 00:05:40,560 Speaker 4: out of the place out of Tennessee, which was actually 117 00:05:40,720 --> 00:05:44,040 Speaker 4: copper and a very nice core, it just it just 118 00:05:44,279 --> 00:05:47,599 Speaker 4: didn't fit right. It had some overlap to it. It 119 00:05:47,640 --> 00:05:49,680 Speaker 4: was just a hair too short. It didn't fit the 120 00:05:49,720 --> 00:05:51,880 Speaker 4: brackets to hold it down. We would have had to 121 00:05:51,880 --> 00:05:55,839 Speaker 4: start to bend to modify reshape. Now to their credit, 122 00:05:56,480 --> 00:05:59,719 Speaker 4: four Seasons, which is actually a division of Standard Motor 123 00:05:59,760 --> 00:06:02,400 Speaker 4: propt or was it at some point I believe they 124 00:06:02,440 --> 00:06:06,040 Speaker 4: still are. The four Seasons heater core made out of aluminum, 125 00:06:06,080 --> 00:06:09,479 Speaker 4: fit like a glove. Absolutely, you know, went right on, 126 00:06:10,040 --> 00:06:13,320 Speaker 4: sealed it up. It worked great. But you got to 127 00:06:13,360 --> 00:06:17,839 Speaker 4: buy two of everything. Got that done, got the heater 128 00:06:17,920 --> 00:06:21,200 Speaker 4: box back in. Now the problem the other problem that 129 00:06:21,360 --> 00:06:25,680 Speaker 4: came about on disassembly is we're snowballing along. Here was 130 00:06:26,040 --> 00:06:30,120 Speaker 4: the instrument cluster, there's a it was plastic. It was 131 00:06:30,160 --> 00:06:32,560 Speaker 4: this plastic cluster that bolted to the back of the 132 00:06:32,600 --> 00:06:36,640 Speaker 4: metal plastic dashboard. That how's the gags or the idiot 133 00:06:36,720 --> 00:06:39,760 Speaker 4: lights now houses the gauges. You know, it's not a 134 00:06:39,760 --> 00:06:42,040 Speaker 4: good feeling when you're trying to disconnect things and all 135 00:06:42,040 --> 00:06:47,960 Speaker 4: you hear is crack, crack, crack. Danny, are you doing 136 00:06:48,000 --> 00:06:51,640 Speaker 4: something with your knuckles now? Uh uh crack. And when 137 00:06:51,640 --> 00:06:56,360 Speaker 4: we got the dashboard out, we could see that the 138 00:06:56,400 --> 00:07:00,440 Speaker 4: flexing and moving of the dashboard, the gauge cluster as 139 00:07:00,440 --> 00:07:05,000 Speaker 4: they call it, which is plastic, was so brittle, so brittle, 140 00:07:05,520 --> 00:07:08,080 Speaker 4: it just it just it just started to fall apart. 141 00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:11,280 Speaker 4: And it was kind of interesting because we went on 142 00:07:11,360 --> 00:07:14,400 Speaker 4: all the manufacturers websites, were all the resuppliers, i should say, 143 00:07:15,360 --> 00:07:17,640 Speaker 4: and you know it was described like this, here's the 144 00:07:17,720 --> 00:07:20,920 Speaker 4: here's the instrument closer you need because they're so brittle 145 00:07:20,920 --> 00:07:23,240 Speaker 4: that on disassembly they fall apart. Well, great, I'm glad 146 00:07:23,280 --> 00:07:27,480 Speaker 4: everybody knows this, but me, I should have checked this beforehand. 147 00:07:28,360 --> 00:07:31,640 Speaker 4: And of course, to show the popularity and the commonalty 148 00:07:31,680 --> 00:07:35,240 Speaker 4: of this. Nobody had the part, which is the other issue. Right, Hey, 149 00:07:35,240 --> 00:07:37,640 Speaker 4: we're sold out. We expect to get one like three 150 00:07:37,680 --> 00:07:38,360 Speaker 4: months from never. 151 00:07:39,240 --> 00:07:39,400 Speaker 5: Uh. 152 00:07:41,200 --> 00:07:43,720 Speaker 4: I couldn't build a car today without the Internet. I 153 00:07:43,760 --> 00:07:47,480 Speaker 4: couldn't because I did some searching. And there is a 154 00:07:47,680 --> 00:07:51,440 Speaker 4: place in Illinois, the parts Place, not a paid commercial guise, 155 00:07:51,480 --> 00:07:54,160 Speaker 4: but just the God's honest truth, the parts Place. And 156 00:07:54,200 --> 00:07:57,320 Speaker 4: I spoke to Danny, and Danny, you know, you can 157 00:07:57,360 --> 00:07:59,600 Speaker 4: tell Danny's been doing this a while because he's tired, 158 00:08:00,920 --> 00:08:03,440 Speaker 4: you know, he's just you can tell he's just fed 159 00:08:03,520 --> 00:08:06,720 Speaker 4: up and frustrated to a degree. But super nice guy, 160 00:08:07,680 --> 00:08:11,320 Speaker 4: you know. And I want them over with my charming personality. Uh, specifically, 161 00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:12,760 Speaker 4: I think because I called him up and I had 162 00:08:12,760 --> 00:08:14,200 Speaker 4: a list of parts and I need one of these 163 00:08:14,240 --> 00:08:15,360 Speaker 4: and one of these, and one of these and one 164 00:08:15,400 --> 00:08:18,040 Speaker 4: of these and one of these. And he's like, God, 165 00:08:18,040 --> 00:08:20,040 Speaker 4: do you want a job here? No, No, I don't 166 00:08:20,200 --> 00:08:21,880 Speaker 4: believe me.

As a witness to all this, 173 00:08:41,679 --> 00:08:47,440 Speaker 4: my executive producer Tom stopped in on Thursday for an 174 00:08:47,480 --> 00:08:51,640 Speaker 4: oil change and he said, why is the Monte Carlos 175 00:08:51,679 --> 00:08:53,480 Speaker 4: spread out in all four corners of the shop. And 176 00:08:53,480 --> 00:08:56,400 Speaker 4: I said, well, I'm kind of running out of horizontal surfaces. 177 00:08:56,440 --> 00:08:58,680 Speaker 4: You know, you're running out of places to put parts, 178 00:08:59,080 --> 00:09:01,360 Speaker 4: and you've got pile created and we've got notes at 179 00:09:01,360 --> 00:09:03,480 Speaker 4: each pile this, this goes here, this goes there, this 180 00:09:03,520 --> 00:09:09,760 Speaker 4: goes there, put this here, remember this correct that snowballs. 181 00:09:10,800 --> 00:09:14,760 Speaker 4: I spent Friday yesterday was first Friday. We always take 182 00:09:14,800 --> 00:09:19,000 Speaker 4: first Friday off, and you know I spent part of 183 00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:23,200 Speaker 4: the day First Friday yesterday at the shop and just 184 00:09:23,400 --> 00:09:25,080 Speaker 4: kind of tinkered a little bit and got a little 185 00:09:25,120 --> 00:09:28,320 Speaker 4: mental health back. And you know, the heater boxes back end, 186 00:09:28,320 --> 00:09:30,679 Speaker 4: the heater core has done everything sealed up that works 187 00:09:30,760 --> 00:09:33,000 Speaker 4: really well, or it will work well. We were able 188 00:09:33,000 --> 00:09:34,920 Speaker 4: to start the car. We made sure all the vacuum 189 00:09:34,960 --> 00:09:37,920 Speaker 4: doors now work. It was kind of a historic moment. 190 00:09:39,640 --> 00:09:42,680 Speaker 4: We wiped out all the dust. You know, the things 191 00:09:42,679 --> 00:09:45,600 Speaker 4: that you do in the course of a restoration. This 192 00:09:45,720 --> 00:09:49,280 Speaker 4: was a Texas car. This car came out of Minard, Texas, 193 00:09:49,880 --> 00:09:53,040 Speaker 4: and the dust that got into the crevices and the 194 00:09:53,080 --> 00:09:57,600 Speaker 4: crannies it was. It was kind of a hilarious moment 195 00:09:57,640 --> 00:10:01,320 Speaker 4: because the research door, the researchlation door sits on the 196 00:10:01,400 --> 00:10:04,640 Speaker 4: right side a pillar, and the motor sits right there 197 00:10:04,679 --> 00:10:07,719 Speaker 4: the vacuum control and I pulled it open by vacuum 198 00:10:08,200 --> 00:10:12,600 Speaker 4: and Danny was looking. You know that Three Stooges episode 199 00:10:12,640 --> 00:10:16,000 Speaker 4: where Curly's trying to clean the stove and Moe's looking 200 00:10:16,040 --> 00:10:18,920 Speaker 4: down the vent pipe I think it is, and Curly 201 00:10:18,920 --> 00:10:23,319 Speaker 4: takes the vacuum and puts it on backwards and gets 202 00:10:23,480 --> 00:10:25,600 Speaker 4: all the carbon, all the soot all over his face. Well, 203 00:10:25,640 --> 00:10:27,720 Speaker 4: that was kind of the All I heard was Danny 204 00:10:27,720 --> 00:10:29,680 Speaker 4: coffin and gag and I said, did it come out? 205 00:10:30,400 --> 00:10:36,160 Speaker 4: Oh boy? Oh yeah, snowballing. How what a repair goes bad? 206 00:10:36,280 --> 00:10:37,840 Speaker 4: Sometimes it's just yea. 207 00:10:37,960 --> 00:10:40,280 Speaker 1: Well, when I brought the car in for the oil changed, 208 00:10:40,320 --> 00:10:42,400 Speaker 1: Danny goes, yeah, it opens, the doors, come on in. 209 00:10:42,480 --> 00:10:45,200 Speaker 4: I'm like where I'm gonna run something over? Yeah, it 210 00:10:45,240 --> 00:10:48,920 Speaker 4: was right. And my lion Tom, we had every horizontal bench, top, 211 00:10:49,000 --> 00:10:51,520 Speaker 4: toolbox top, every spot in the shop. 212 00:10:51,920 --> 00:10:53,840 Speaker 1: There was nothing left to the car except the seats. 213 00:10:53,960 --> 00:10:56,880 Speaker 4: Right, Yeah, it's crazy. I'm telling you. That vacuum line 214 00:10:57,000 --> 00:10:59,199 Speaker 4: was the first part put in. Kathy came in on 215 00:10:59,360 --> 00:11:02,640 Speaker 4: Wednesday to work at her desk, and we were using 216 00:11:02,679 --> 00:11:07,000 Speaker 4: her desk.

Some problems 237 00:12:13,880 --> 00:12:15,920 Speaker 4: with a twenty five Ford Maverick bill looking for the 238 00:12:15,960 --> 00:12:17,200 Speaker 4: car Doctor. Sure, how can I help? 239 00:12:18,800 --> 00:12:19,160 Speaker 6: Thank you? 240 00:12:19,280 --> 00:12:24,040 Speaker 7: Yeah, I have like seventeen thousand miles on it. I've 241 00:12:24,080 --> 00:12:27,880 Speaker 7: been getting the oil changed about every three thousand miles. 242 00:12:28,360 --> 00:12:30,920 Speaker 7: But last time I went, I went a little longer, 243 00:12:31,040 --> 00:12:34,160 Speaker 7: was forty five hundred, and it was down almost the court. 244 00:12:34,320 --> 00:12:37,040 Speaker 7: It was like right to the ad mark, and I 245 00:12:37,080 --> 00:12:40,839 Speaker 7: figured it shouldn't be using that oil. But I talked 246 00:12:40,840 --> 00:12:44,080 Speaker 7: to the Ford dealer and they said, unless it's low, 247 00:12:44,240 --> 00:12:47,720 Speaker 7: they know they basically I don't want to know about it, 248 00:12:48,559 --> 00:12:50,280 Speaker 7: and that I wanted them. 249 00:12:50,120 --> 00:12:53,640 Speaker 3: To put something on my service sheet to say that 250 00:12:53,679 --> 00:12:55,920 Speaker 3: it was low in case I had a problem at 251 00:12:55,920 --> 00:12:59,120 Speaker 3: another time, but they want to do that. But I 252 00:12:59,160 --> 00:13:01,679 Speaker 3: was wondering, what you thought about For three thousand, I 253 00:13:01,720 --> 00:13:04,560 Speaker 3: could get a six year, one hundred and twenty five 254 00:13:04,640 --> 00:13:06,679 Speaker 3: thousand mile warranty from them. 255 00:13:06,520 --> 00:13:10,120 Speaker 7: And what did you think about that? And what's burning 256 00:13:10,200 --> 00:13:12,040 Speaker 7: that oil is going to do to everything else? 257 00:13:12,440 --> 00:13:17,400 Speaker 4: Well, you know, all solid questions, Bill, And my concern 258 00:13:17,440 --> 00:13:21,080 Speaker 4: would be that I'm gonna listen, I'm gonna call it 259 00:13:21,120 --> 00:13:22,520 Speaker 4: like I see it. I don't think they're giving you 260 00:13:22,520 --> 00:13:24,480 Speaker 4: a great service right now. So why would I spend 261 00:13:24,520 --> 00:13:26,320 Speaker 4: three thousand dollars to have them look at it and 262 00:13:26,360 --> 00:13:28,120 Speaker 4: solve the problem that may or may not happen again 263 00:13:28,120 --> 00:13:31,600 Speaker 4: in the future. Right I'm not saying not to do 264 00:13:31,679 --> 00:13:35,080 Speaker 4: the extended plan, but I'd find a better dealer. I'd 265 00:13:35,080 --> 00:13:37,160 Speaker 4: find somebody that wants to help solve my problem, or 266 00:13:37,160 --> 00:13:38,920 Speaker 4: at least has an interest in me beyond. Hey, you 267 00:13:38,960 --> 00:13:42,360 Speaker 4: bought the car to check clear to see you, you know, 268 00:13:42,440 --> 00:13:46,439 Speaker 4: at the very least, at the very least, in my opinion, 269 00:13:46,480 --> 00:13:49,920 Speaker 4: they owe you an oil consumption test. Bill came in 270 00:13:49,960 --> 00:13:52,400 Speaker 4: on Bill. Bill came in on such and such a day. 271 00:13:52,440 --> 00:13:55,199 Speaker 4: We changed the oil. We checked, the oil level was 272 00:13:55,240 --> 00:13:57,959 Speaker 4: at this mark on the dipstick. Bill came back a 273 00:13:58,040 --> 00:14:00,559 Speaker 4: thousand miles later, the oil was okay. Hey, Bill came 274 00:14:00,600 --> 00:14:03,280 Speaker 4: back two thousand miles later, the oil was okay. Bill 275 00:14:03,360 --> 00:14:05,520 Speaker 4: came back at the three thousand mile mark, Hey, it's 276 00:14:05,559 --> 00:14:10,520 Speaker 4: down half a court. What what we're seeing and it's 277 00:14:10,600 --> 00:14:13,720 Speaker 4: going on nationwide at this point, is that the Maverick 278 00:14:13,800 --> 00:14:17,679 Speaker 4: This is the two Leader eco boost engine. Yes, yeah, 279 00:14:17,960 --> 00:14:20,520 Speaker 4: the two Leader ego boost somewhere in that three to 280 00:14:20,600 --> 00:14:23,040 Speaker 4: five thousand mile range. If it goes a little long, 281 00:14:24,280 --> 00:14:27,280 Speaker 4: they're starting to consume oil. And I'm going to tell 282 00:14:27,280 --> 00:14:30,640 Speaker 4: you from a mechanical perspective, it's as the oil starts 283 00:14:30,680 --> 00:14:33,320 Speaker 4: to break down and wear out. I'm not saying it's 284 00:14:33,360 --> 00:14:35,520 Speaker 4: worn out at three thousand, but it's as the oil 285 00:14:35,560 --> 00:14:38,600 Speaker 4: starts to accumulate miles. You change the oil and the 286 00:14:38,640 --> 00:14:41,000 Speaker 4: problem is gone for the first couple thousand miles, and 287 00:14:41,040 --> 00:14:44,520 Speaker 4: then it starts over again. You know, Is it that 288 00:14:44,560 --> 00:14:48,480 Speaker 4: the oil change interval is too long? I don't necessarily 289 00:14:48,560 --> 00:14:51,200 Speaker 4: think so. I think you know, a modern day engine 290 00:14:51,240 --> 00:14:54,760 Speaker 4: five months, five thousand miles, a good full synthetic oil 291 00:14:54,800 --> 00:14:59,120 Speaker 4: that meets manufacturer spec it should be fine. Does Ford 292 00:14:59,160 --> 00:15:01,680 Speaker 4: have the right speck Doyle? Are they missing an additive 293 00:15:01,680 --> 00:15:05,920 Speaker 4: in that oil? And that's possible, right, I would I 294 00:15:05,920 --> 00:15:08,320 Speaker 4: would at least talk to Ford Corporate and say, hey, 295 00:15:08,360 --> 00:15:10,720 Speaker 4: here's what happened. I'm not thrilled with my new twenty 296 00:15:10,720 --> 00:15:15,320 Speaker 4: five Maverick. I should have bought a Toyota. Yeah, although 297 00:15:15,320 --> 00:15:17,520 Speaker 4: the Toyota engines blow up, that's a whole another Although 298 00:15:17,520 --> 00:15:19,800 Speaker 4: I heard I read the other day that they're starting 299 00:15:19,840 --> 00:15:21,840 Speaker 4: that recall for the V six twin turbos and we're 300 00:15:21,840 --> 00:15:24,480 Speaker 4: going to cover that in the future. So, you know, 301 00:15:24,520 --> 00:15:26,040 Speaker 4: I think it's time to go back to that Ford 302 00:15:26,080 --> 00:15:28,120 Speaker 4: dealer and talk to the service manager and say, hey, 303 00:15:28,120 --> 00:15:32,000 Speaker 4: do you think this is an acceptable answer? Right I 304 00:15:32,160 --> 00:15:39,120 Speaker 4: I I think yeah, I think they owe you an explanation, right. 305 00:15:39,960 --> 00:15:42,680 Speaker 4: You know, is this the dealer you bought the vehicle from. 306 00:15:44,000 --> 00:15:44,200 Speaker 5: Yes? 307 00:15:44,480 --> 00:15:48,360 Speaker 4: Is this the first vehicle you bought from this dealership? No, 308 00:15:48,520 --> 00:15:52,840 Speaker 4: it's probably about the okay, perfect do you always go 309 00:15:52,880 --> 00:15:54,760 Speaker 4: to the same salesperson. 310 00:15:56,640 --> 00:15:59,360 Speaker 7: I did before, but he left, so it's somebody different. 311 00:15:59,480 --> 00:16:01,800 Speaker 7: I went to the salesperson and he said there was 312 00:16:01,840 --> 00:16:03,920 Speaker 7: nothing he could do. They have to do in the back. 313 00:16:04,440 --> 00:16:08,600 Speaker 4: Another guy that doesn't care about customer satisfaction, right, Yeah, 314 00:16:08,640 --> 00:16:11,240 Speaker 4: you know it's it's it's like Mom always said, you 315 00:16:11,320 --> 00:16:13,440 Speaker 4: let people go long enough, they'll show you who they 316 00:16:13,480 --> 00:16:17,080 Speaker 4: really are. So have you talked to the service manager. 317 00:16:17,160 --> 00:16:23,520 Speaker 7: Yet no, because he was busy and basically couldn't get 318 00:16:23,520 --> 00:16:25,600 Speaker 7: to him. I'm just done with the dealer. 319 00:16:26,000 --> 00:16:29,440 Speaker 4: So here, do this, Bill, Just do this one last time. 320 00:16:29,520 --> 00:16:32,960 Speaker 4: Let's see how dumb they really are. All right, Get 321 00:16:33,040 --> 00:16:36,880 Speaker 4: get the name of the owner of the dealership, the principal, right, 322 00:16:37,000 --> 00:16:39,400 Speaker 4: get his email, probably find it on the website on 323 00:16:39,480 --> 00:16:43,080 Speaker 4: contact us. Put the put the put the sales manager, 324 00:16:43,280 --> 00:16:47,480 Speaker 4: the service manager, the owner of the dealership on the email.

Why aren't we running an oil 327 00:16:53,160 --> 00:16:57,200 Speaker 4: consumption test? I have concerns because you're right, as that 328 00:16:57,280 --> 00:17:00,680 Speaker 4: engine starts to use oil, guess were all the burnt 329 00:17:00,680 --> 00:17:04,040 Speaker 4: oil's going out the exhaust?

It's got a one hundred and thirty 407 00:21:07,280 --> 00:21:12,640 Speaker 5: thousand mills and I had I had an automatic transmission 408 00:21:12,720 --> 00:21:17,440 Speaker 5: fluid drain and fill done and a synthetic was used, 409 00:21:18,240 --> 00:21:21,920 Speaker 5: and the Toyota recommends a T four. 410 00:21:21,800 --> 00:21:24,880 Speaker 4: Which right, type type four type four fluid. 411 00:21:24,720 --> 00:21:28,320 Speaker 5: Right, yep, yep, conventional fluid yep. And like I say, 412 00:21:28,359 --> 00:21:31,080 Speaker 5: they put a U and that's not a non. That's 413 00:21:31,119 --> 00:21:34,879 Speaker 5: not a non. That is a non synthetic fluid. 414 00:21:35,080 --> 00:21:35,439 Speaker 4: Correct. 415 00:21:35,480 --> 00:21:42,640 Speaker 5: And so I'm wondering should I or and you mix 416 00:21:42,760 --> 00:21:45,280 Speaker 5: it to I guess, and wondering what your opinion is 417 00:21:45,320 --> 00:21:47,879 Speaker 5: about that, and what would you do at this point 418 00:21:48,200 --> 00:21:51,280 Speaker 5: if it were your car. I realized they didn't change 419 00:21:51,600 --> 00:21:55,119 Speaker 5: all of the transmission fluid. I guess probably was pretty 420 00:21:55,119 --> 00:21:57,280 Speaker 5: near half or a little less than half that it was. 421 00:21:57,520 --> 00:22:00,359 Speaker 4: Yeah, yep, you probably got about thirty of it out 422 00:22:00,400 --> 00:22:03,920 Speaker 4: of it. You know, a lot of guys use synthetic transfluid, 423 00:22:04,480 --> 00:22:06,720 Speaker 4: and I see this debate raging all over the place. 424 00:22:07,440 --> 00:22:11,640 Speaker 4: I'm a conventional trans oil type of guy, all right, 425 00:22:12,920 --> 00:22:16,840 Speaker 4: only because and you know it's well, first of all, 426 00:22:16,880 --> 00:22:21,200 Speaker 4: let's let's preface the question, right. You know, transmission fluids, 427 00:22:21,280 --> 00:22:23,280 Speaker 4: I don't think. I think if you get one hundred 428 00:22:23,280 --> 00:22:25,080 Speaker 4: and fifty to one hundred and eighty thousand miles out 429 00:22:25,080 --> 00:22:29,119 Speaker 4: of the original trans you did really well. For whatever reason, 430 00:22:29,400 --> 00:22:32,280 Speaker 4: transmissions don't hold up or don't seem to have the 431 00:22:33,080 --> 00:22:36,600 Speaker 4: ability to hold up as an engine would. I've seen 432 00:22:36,640 --> 00:22:39,200 Speaker 4: engines with three hundred thousand miles on them, and yes, 433 00:22:39,440 --> 00:22:41,399 Speaker 4: somebody will you know, prove me wrong, and we'll get 434 00:22:41,400 --> 00:22:43,640 Speaker 4: an internet troll to write me a nasty email saying, ron, 435 00:22:43,640 --> 00:22:46,280 Speaker 4: I've got four hundred thousand miles on my transmission. Congratulations, 436 00:22:46,320 --> 00:22:49,280 Speaker 4: you're the one. You know it's it's most of the time, 437 00:22:49,520 --> 00:22:51,920 Speaker 4: even with reasonable care, somewhere in that one hundred and 438 00:22:51,960 --> 00:22:53,800 Speaker 4: fifty to two hundred thousand mile mark, we're doing some 439 00:22:53,880 --> 00:22:58,800 Speaker 4: kind of transmission repair, replacement, et cetera. Transmission fluid in 440 00:22:58,880 --> 00:23:02,600 Speaker 4: my opinion need to be changed on a consistent regular basis, 441 00:23:02,800 --> 00:23:06,119 Speaker 4: All right, as it gets older? You know, everything in 442 00:23:06,160 --> 00:23:08,959 Speaker 4: life is about cause and effect. If I spend an 443 00:23:08,960 --> 00:23:12,960 Speaker 4: extra fifty dollars on synthetic fluid, and the interval the 444 00:23:13,040 --> 00:23:16,720 Speaker 4: normal service interval is every fifty thousand miles, am I 445 00:23:16,760 --> 00:23:18,639 Speaker 4: gonna let it go till seventy? Am I going to 446 00:23:18,760 --> 00:23:21,879 Speaker 4: let it go till eighty? Where if I did that 447 00:23:22,080 --> 00:23:26,119 Speaker 4: service every fifty and I did three of those, and 448 00:23:26,160 --> 00:23:30,240 Speaker 4: I was watching fluid, watching leaks, watching performance, looking for particulate, 449 00:23:30,320 --> 00:23:32,520 Speaker 4: looking for the trans to start to break down, looking 450 00:23:32,520 --> 00:23:36,879 Speaker 4: at fluid discoloration, Aren't I better off doing that as 451 00:23:36,920 --> 00:23:39,080 Speaker 4: the little old man gets older, rather than taking me 452 00:23:39,119 --> 00:23:40,800 Speaker 4: in for his physical and check up when he turns 453 00:23:40,880 --> 00:23:43,520 Speaker 4: ninety and saying, how are his lungsy's been smoking all 454 00:23:43,520 --> 00:23:44,040 Speaker 4: this time? 455 00:23:44,840 --> 00:23:49,440 Speaker 5: Yeah? I fatuld make comment here. One thing that threw 456 00:23:49,520 --> 00:23:52,640 Speaker 5: me off, because I'm saying that I had the transmission 457 00:23:52,800 --> 00:23:57,120 Speaker 5: fluid replaced at one hundred and thirty thousand miles. One 458 00:23:57,119 --> 00:24:02,160 Speaker 5: thing that's thrown me off all along is on the 459 00:24:02,200 --> 00:24:06,560 Speaker 5: transmission dipstick, and I would check it occasionally. It says 460 00:24:06,560 --> 00:24:11,600 Speaker 5: on there not to change the transmission fluid under normal conditions. 461 00:24:12,200 --> 00:24:15,800 Speaker 5: So it kind of threw me off out of high school. 462 00:24:15,840 --> 00:24:19,040 Speaker 5: This is back in nineteen seventy. I had worked I 463 00:24:19,080 --> 00:24:22,560 Speaker 5: took Automo mechanics for the engine, but not the full car. 464 00:24:22,800 --> 00:24:26,160 Speaker 5: Back in high school A used to offer that. And anyway, 465 00:24:26,280 --> 00:24:28,760 Speaker 5: back then, once I graduated, I worked for the brother 466 00:24:28,800 --> 00:24:32,400 Speaker 5: in law who had an automotive shop, and I picked 467 00:24:32,440 --> 00:24:34,359 Speaker 5: up quite a few things. But I remember, back in 468 00:24:34,400 --> 00:24:37,720 Speaker 5: those days, Ford had their own, Chevy had their own 469 00:24:37,800 --> 00:24:41,080 Speaker 5: you know, it seems like every make had their own transmissions. 470 00:24:40,680 --> 00:24:41,320 Speaker 4: And they still do. 471 00:24:42,280 --> 00:24:46,399 Speaker 5: And you'd go in there and you'd want to transmission change, 472 00:24:46,600 --> 00:24:49,879 Speaker 5: transmission fluid change, and they would get what the you 473 00:24:49,920 --> 00:24:55,080 Speaker 5: know what they recommended what that manufacturer recommended the stuff here. 474 00:24:55,080 --> 00:24:57,800 Speaker 5: I don't know if I should mention the name of it, 475 00:24:57,880 --> 00:25:02,359 Speaker 5: the fluid. It's called a service Pro Global Fool Synthetic 476 00:25:02,840 --> 00:25:06,360 Speaker 5: Automatic Transmission Fluid. They have quite a They have quite 477 00:25:06,359 --> 00:25:08,080 Speaker 5: a list. I went on the site. They have quite 478 00:25:08,080 --> 00:25:11,200 Speaker 5: a list for a lot of manufacturers and I'm surprised 479 00:25:11,280 --> 00:25:16,719 Speaker 5: even BMW, Mercedes, Portia, Jaguar, et cetera. And it seems 480 00:25:16,720 --> 00:25:19,080 Speaker 5: like a one size fits all. And I'm thinking, is 481 00:25:19,160 --> 00:25:21,919 Speaker 5: that possible. That's that's that's why I called up. 482 00:25:22,000 --> 00:25:25,080 Speaker 4: It's it's it's it's kind of scary to me that 483 00:25:25,119 --> 00:25:30,120 Speaker 4: they're going to say one fluid fits every manufacturer under 484 00:25:30,160 --> 00:25:32,439 Speaker 4: each other, you know, Mike, let me let me preface 485 00:25:32,480 --> 00:25:34,600 Speaker 4: it this way. Would I use it? I would if 486 00:25:34,640 --> 00:25:36,680 Speaker 4: they gave me a written guarantee that if the trans failed, 487 00:25:36,680 --> 00:25:39,760 Speaker 4: they're going to cover it. You know, only because only 488 00:25:39,800 --> 00:25:41,520 Speaker 4: because we're living in a day in an age where 489 00:25:41,520 --> 00:25:45,160 Speaker 4: I can get I can get any fluid I want 490 00:25:45,240 --> 00:25:47,959 Speaker 4: within hours. It's not a matter of it's not a 491 00:25:47,960 --> 00:25:51,200 Speaker 4: matter of availability. It's is it a question of will 492 00:25:51,240 --> 00:25:52,240 Speaker 4: it last longer? 493 00:25:52,960 --> 00:25:53,160 Speaker 5: Boy? 494 00:25:53,240 --> 00:25:55,560 Speaker 4: I'm telling you, you know, you look at some of 495 00:25:55,600 --> 00:25:58,199 Speaker 4: the additive packages they're putting in transmissions, and you look 496 00:25:58,240 --> 00:25:59,919 Speaker 4: at some of the fluids, and some of the change 497 00:26:00,040 --> 00:26:02,480 Speaker 4: in some of the ways that they've designed the fluid 498 00:26:02,560 --> 00:26:04,480 Speaker 4: to operate. I don't know that we need to do that, 499 00:26:05,560 --> 00:26:07,840 Speaker 4: you know, if I was in the middle of and 500 00:26:07,880 --> 00:26:10,680 Speaker 4: no offense to Oklahoma, right, but Oklahoma in my mind, 501 00:26:10,680 --> 00:26:12,520 Speaker 4: being from New Jersey, where you know, you stick your 502 00:26:12,560 --> 00:26:15,320 Speaker 4: elbow at the window, you hit your neighbor, Oklahoma to me, 503 00:26:15,440 --> 00:26:18,879 Speaker 4: is you know, lots available room and lots of space Texas, Colorado, 504 00:26:18,920 --> 00:26:21,320 Speaker 4: et cetera. If I'm in a part of the country 505 00:26:21,359 --> 00:26:25,720 Speaker 4: where it's difficult getting fluid, maybe that's the application I 506 00:26:25,760 --> 00:26:27,240 Speaker 4: want to use. Or maybe I'm just going to order 507 00:26:27,280 --> 00:26:30,639 Speaker 4: things three days ahead of time. But I can't. I 508 00:26:30,720 --> 00:26:33,679 Speaker 4: can't see. You'd really have to convince me and explain 509 00:26:33,720 --> 00:26:36,600 Speaker 4: to me why a universal fluid in the day and 510 00:26:36,680 --> 00:26:39,920 Speaker 4: modern age of fluid availability, why I would want to 511 00:26:39,960 --> 00:26:42,439 Speaker 4: do that. Now, to get onto the other part of 512 00:26:42,440 --> 00:26:44,520 Speaker 4: your question before I run out of time, what would 513 00:26:44,560 --> 00:26:48,320 Speaker 4: I do in your scenario, I'd put about I'd put 514 00:26:48,359 --> 00:26:51,800 Speaker 4: about four or five thousand miles on that transmission, and 515 00:26:51,840 --> 00:26:53,159 Speaker 4: I would take it to I would take it to 516 00:26:53,200 --> 00:26:55,840 Speaker 4: my local shop and have a fluid exchange done. I 517 00:26:55,840 --> 00:26:58,520 Speaker 4: would get the rest of the fluid out I would 518 00:26:58,880 --> 00:27:02,200 Speaker 4: I would do an exchange either by trans cooler line. Now, 519 00:27:02,200 --> 00:27:06,240 Speaker 4: they don't necessarily need a transmission fluid exchange machine. It 520 00:27:06,320 --> 00:27:09,080 Speaker 4: makes life easier, right, but they can do it through 521 00:27:09,080 --> 00:27:12,240 Speaker 4: the cooler lines, disconnecting the hoses and doing a fill 522 00:27:12,240 --> 00:27:14,879 Speaker 4: into a bucket and a fill up the hose. It 523 00:27:14,880 --> 00:27:17,800 Speaker 4: can be done. That transmission has a dipstick, so adding 524 00:27:17,840 --> 00:27:20,639 Speaker 4: fluid becomes a lot easier, and be honest with you, 525 00:27:20,840 --> 00:27:24,320 Speaker 4: I see no reason not to use type for Toyota fluid, 526 00:27:24,920 --> 00:27:27,480 Speaker 4: right And even though that stick says never needs to 527 00:27:27,480 --> 00:27:31,520 Speaker 4: be serviced, that's kind of a different conversation, all right, 528 00:27:31,880 --> 00:27:36,800 Speaker 4: because the truth is additive packages. There are additive packages 529 00:27:36,880 --> 00:27:40,520 Speaker 4: added to transfluid that helps promote their life and endurance 530 00:27:40,760 --> 00:27:44,639 Speaker 4: and friction and stickability and all sorts of other things. 531 00:27:45,280 --> 00:27:48,960 Speaker 4: And the fluid does wear out, all right. And I've 532 00:27:49,000 --> 00:27:52,639 Speaker 4: talked about this where I've had Toyotas that run on 533 00:27:53,040 --> 00:27:55,720 Speaker 4: WS fluid where they get to that seventy thousand mile 534 00:27:55,800 --> 00:27:58,320 Speaker 4: mark and the transs start to chatter and they have 535 00:27:58,440 --> 00:28:00,520 Speaker 4: rough shifts and they're not smooth, and you're like, oh 536 00:28:00,520 --> 00:28:03,520 Speaker 4: my god, I need a transmission. You change the fluid, 537 00:28:03,680 --> 00:28:08,000 Speaker 4: the problem goes away. So yeah, I. 538 00:28:08,000 --> 00:28:10,480 Speaker 5: Believe see that is one of the reasons I'm calling 539 00:28:10,480 --> 00:28:14,120 Speaker 5: because I have a van also about the same mileage, 540 00:28:14,160 --> 00:28:16,840 Speaker 5: and I've never changed the transition fluid in that we 541 00:28:16,960 --> 00:28:21,240 Speaker 5: kind of van. And if it's a Toyota Siena, right. 542 00:28:21,160 --> 00:28:24,480 Speaker 4: Well, I you know what I would I I'm a gambler. 543 00:28:24,600 --> 00:28:27,560 Speaker 4: There's there are some there are some disadvantages and some 544 00:28:27,600 --> 00:28:31,639 Speaker 4: possible problems on changing trans fluid that long term hasn't 545 00:28:31,640 --> 00:28:34,480 Speaker 4: been serviced. But I like to know when my stuff 546 00:28:34,520 --> 00:28:36,680 Speaker 4: is going to fail, so I would change the fluid. 547 00:28:36,960 --> 00:28:39,840 Speaker 4: I would first do a drain and fill, get out 548 00:28:39,880 --> 00:28:42,760 Speaker 4: a little bit, let it again four or five thousand miles, 549 00:28:42,760 --> 00:28:45,080 Speaker 4: like you did with this other one, and then I 550 00:28:45,080 --> 00:28:47,800 Speaker 4: would do a fluid exchange and get the rest of 551 00:28:47,840 --> 00:28:50,920 Speaker 4: it out. But I, You've got to really convince me 552 00:28:50,960 --> 00:28:55,480 Speaker 4: why I would want to stray and go from manufacturer 553 00:28:55,640 --> 00:28:57,680 Speaker 4: specific fluid. And I'm not saying it has to come 554 00:28:57,680 --> 00:28:59,920 Speaker 4: from Toyota. There's a lot of sources for a tight 555 00:29:00,120 --> 00:29:03,640 Speaker 4: four trans fluid from other places. But to start putting 556 00:29:03,760 --> 00:29:08,760 Speaker 4: universal fits all brother transmissions are too expensive to take 557 00:29:08,800 --> 00:29:10,920 Speaker 4: the gamble with. I just can't see it, and I 558 00:29:10,920 --> 00:29:12,960 Speaker 4: don't understand why anybody would do it. You'd have to 559 00:29:13,040 --> 00:29:16,800 Speaker 4: really convince me. And that's about where I'm gonna leave it. Mike. 560 00:29:16,840 --> 00:29:19,640 Speaker 4: I appreciate the call. You be well A five five 561 00:29:19,720 --> 00:29:21,760 Speaker 4: five six zero nine nine zero zero. The car Doctor's 562 00:29:21,760 --> 00:29:35,600 Speaker 4: coming back right after this. Let's well, we're back. Let's 563 00:29:35,640 --> 00:29:38,840 Speaker 4: go to Kevin and Florida. Kevin, what's going on? Hey, Ron. 564 00:29:38,880 --> 00:29:40,080 Speaker 6: How's it going all right? 565 00:29:40,120 --> 00:29:40,920 Speaker 4: Sir? How can I help? 566 00:29:42,080 --> 00:29:44,440 Speaker 6: I've been seeing advertisements for these new tools that you 567 00:29:44,440 --> 00:29:46,840 Speaker 6: clip your iPhone to you or your cell phone too, 568 00:29:46,920 --> 00:29:49,680 Speaker 6: and you download an app and you can do a 569 00:29:49,720 --> 00:29:52,040 Speaker 6: four wheel or a front wheel alignment on your cars. 570 00:29:52,600 --> 00:29:54,080 Speaker 6: If you saw them, and what do you think of them? 571 00:29:54,320 --> 00:29:56,640 Speaker 4: I've seen them. What you make? Model car are we 572 00:29:56,680 --> 00:29:57,200 Speaker 4: talking about? 573 00:29:58,680 --> 00:30:01,120 Speaker 6: I'll just any car you can put it on. You 574 00:30:01,160 --> 00:30:04,120 Speaker 6: can use it on any car. I guess I think if. 575 00:30:04,000 --> 00:30:05,600 Speaker 4: I was trying to line up the wheels on a 576 00:30:05,720 --> 00:30:12,240 Speaker 4: seventy two Chevelle, maybe because there's three basic adjustments. But 577 00:30:13,600 --> 00:30:17,000 Speaker 4: you know, for a modern day automobile, camber castor toast 578 00:30:17,000 --> 00:30:20,560 Speaker 4: center line, steering access inclination and all the rest, and 579 00:30:20,600 --> 00:30:25,959 Speaker 4: then and then the involvement of ados automated driver assist 580 00:30:26,080 --> 00:30:29,880 Speaker 4: and you know, having to be steering angle sensor sensitive 581 00:30:29,920 --> 00:30:32,360 Speaker 4: and your sensor position sensitive and everything else. 582 00:30:35,280 --> 00:30:36,840 Speaker 6: You know, you don't think a cell phone could do 583 00:30:36,840 --> 00:30:37,200 Speaker 6: all that. 584 00:30:37,400 --> 00:30:39,960 Speaker 4: Well, let me answer it this way, right, let me 585 00:30:40,040 --> 00:30:44,360 Speaker 4: let me answer it this way. You've heard of MIT, Yeah, 586 00:30:44,600 --> 00:30:47,520 Speaker 4: right up in MIT, the great institution up in Boston. 587 00:30:47,960 --> 00:30:51,800 Speaker 4: They just got a terror hurts microscope, all right, and 588 00:30:51,880 --> 00:30:57,480 Speaker 4: this terror hurts. Microscope can actually look at super conducting electrons, 589 00:30:57,560 --> 00:31:00,920 Speaker 4: which is something that is obviously they I've never seen before. 590 00:31:00,920 --> 00:31:03,120 Speaker 4: They can look through quantum physics and they can actually 591 00:31:03,160 --> 00:31:06,440 Speaker 4: see movement at a sub atomic level that they've never seen. 592 00:31:07,880 --> 00:31:10,400 Speaker 4: If I were to put one of those apps under 593 00:31:10,400 --> 00:31:12,880 Speaker 4: that microscope to look at it, I still couldn't find 594 00:31:12,880 --> 00:31:15,120 Speaker 4: a reason on why they would exist, because to me, 595 00:31:15,200 --> 00:31:17,360 Speaker 4: it just it just doesn't make any sense. You can 596 00:31:17,400 --> 00:31:20,520 Speaker 4: go down to an alignment shop that's competent, that's got 597 00:31:20,520 --> 00:31:26,080 Speaker 4: the right equipment, the right training, and you know if 598 00:31:26,120 --> 00:31:30,000 Speaker 4: there's an issue. Now that having been said, have you 599 00:31:30,040 --> 00:31:32,480 Speaker 4: tried getting alignments done? There's always a reason somebody asked 600 00:31:32,520 --> 00:31:34,480 Speaker 4: me that question, and it can't just be about cost, 601 00:31:35,200 --> 00:31:37,760 Speaker 4: all right. Is it that you've tried getting alignments done 602 00:31:37,960 --> 00:31:40,440 Speaker 4: and you know you haven't gotten them done right? Or 603 00:31:40,920 --> 00:31:42,040 Speaker 4: is there more to it than that. 604 00:31:43,080 --> 00:31:43,160 Speaker 5: No. 605 00:31:43,280 --> 00:31:45,080 Speaker 6: I just saw the tool and it caught my attention 606 00:31:45,160 --> 00:31:47,960 Speaker 6: and I was wondering I think of them. 607 00:31:48,000 --> 00:31:50,440 Speaker 4: I think those tools are there for the guys with 608 00:31:50,480 --> 00:31:52,600 Speaker 4: the tuner cars that are you know, going to the 609 00:31:52,680 --> 00:31:55,400 Speaker 4: track and they're trying to change adjustments and alignments and 610 00:31:55,440 --> 00:31:59,560 Speaker 4: angles and but I can't. I can't believe that a 611 00:31:59,560 --> 00:32:01,640 Speaker 4: tool one dollar app can take the place of a 612 00:32:01,680 --> 00:32:06,360 Speaker 4: seventy thousand dollars alignment machine on a consistent, repeatable basis 613 00:32:06,400 --> 00:32:10,120 Speaker 4: and cover all the angles. Because we're not just aligning 614 00:32:10,160 --> 00:32:13,560 Speaker 4: the front wheels. We're aligning four wheels. You know, we're 615 00:32:13,600 --> 00:32:16,280 Speaker 4: aligning those wheels to the center of the vehicle. There's 616 00:32:16,320 --> 00:32:18,920 Speaker 4: so many more angles and so much more geometry to 617 00:32:18,960 --> 00:32:22,240 Speaker 4: consider that. Again, if I put it under the terror 618 00:32:22,320 --> 00:32:25,080 Speaker 4: Hertz microscope at MIT, I still wouldn't be able to 619 00:32:25,120 --> 00:32:27,680 Speaker 4: find a reason why those exist. All right, Kevin, I 620 00:32:27,720 --> 00:32:29,800 Speaker 4: gotta go, babe, you'd be well. Thank you for the call. 621 00:32:29,840 --> 00:32:32,080 Speaker 4: I appreciate it. Take good care. You're welcome. Bye bye. 622 00:32:32,120 --> 00:32:33,840 Speaker 4: I'm on an ay in the guard. Doctor. We are 623 00:32:33,880 --> 00:32:49,640 Speaker 4: back right after this, boy, we are. We are just 624 00:32:49,800 --> 00:32:51,959 Speaker 4: rolling along this islan and we gotta wind it down there. 625 00:32:51,960 --> 00:32:54,480 Speaker 4: I'm just getting going. This one's from my buddy Dodge 626 00:32:54,520 --> 00:32:56,360 Speaker 4: down there in Delaware to Dodge Road. And hey, Ron, 627 00:32:56,400 --> 00:32:59,560 Speaker 4: if you're using true fuel, which is a non ethanol 628 00:32:59,640 --> 00:33:04,120 Speaker 4: blended fuel for snowblowers, lawnlowers, small engines, et cetera, he writes, 629 00:33:04,240 --> 00:33:06,320 Speaker 4: if you're using true fuel, and a snowblower, and I 630 00:33:06,400 --> 00:33:08,480 Speaker 4: finished with it for the winter. Do you still drain 631 00:33:08,520 --> 00:33:11,600 Speaker 4: the fuel and run the engine dry? Yes? I do 632 00:33:12,160 --> 00:33:15,480 Speaker 4: because I can, because it's fairly easy to do, all right. 633 00:33:15,920 --> 00:33:17,840 Speaker 4: And I will leave the fuel in there over the 634 00:33:17,840 --> 00:33:20,160 Speaker 4: course of the over the course of the winter. You know, 635 00:33:20,360 --> 00:33:22,560 Speaker 4: I'll get the blower out early November, fill it up, 636 00:33:22,880 --> 00:33:25,360 Speaker 4: let it run, YadA, yaha yah. Winter here in New 637 00:33:25,480 --> 00:33:28,320 Speaker 4: Jersey can last five months, so till the end of March. 638 00:33:28,480 --> 00:33:31,080 Speaker 4: Don't have an issue, right, But then he goes on 639 00:33:31,160 --> 00:33:33,080 Speaker 4: to say, I asked because I have a generator that 640 00:33:33,120 --> 00:33:36,200 Speaker 4: has quite an involved storage process, but the manual keeps 641 00:33:36,200 --> 00:33:38,720 Speaker 4: referring to E fifteen with no mention of true fuel 642 00:33:38,800 --> 00:33:41,040 Speaker 4: or pure gas. I don't think you should have an 643 00:33:41,080 --> 00:33:44,120 Speaker 4: issue with true fuel, all right. I've run it in 644 00:33:44,200 --> 00:33:46,400 Speaker 4: every small engine I've ever had for the last well, 645 00:33:46,400 --> 00:33:47,880 Speaker 4: I don't know how long has it been available, ten 646 00:33:47,920 --> 00:33:50,960 Speaker 4: fifteen years, probably longer actually, when I think about it. 647 00:33:51,200 --> 00:33:53,240 Speaker 4: We used to have a generator at the house, which 648 00:33:53,360 --> 00:33:56,560 Speaker 4: was a traditional you know, roller around on a cart 649 00:33:56,600 --> 00:33:59,560 Speaker 4: plug in. You could plug in a main extension cord 650 00:33:59,600 --> 00:34:02,400 Speaker 4: and power up the refrigerator, the furnace. I actually had 651 00:34:02,400 --> 00:34:04,480 Speaker 4: the house wired, so I had like a subpanel for 652 00:34:04,520 --> 00:34:07,400 Speaker 4: the panel that I could turn that panel on, power 653 00:34:07,520 --> 00:34:11,399 Speaker 4: through the generator, run the fridge, the furnace. One room. 654 00:34:11,560 --> 00:34:13,200 Speaker 4: We picked one room in the house where we could 655 00:34:13,239 --> 00:34:15,400 Speaker 4: run the lights, the TV, the internet. It was the 656 00:34:15,480 --> 00:34:17,400 Speaker 4: room with the fireplace, etc. In the event of a 657 00:34:17,520 --> 00:34:21,239 Speaker 4: bad snowstorm, you could stay warm. That generator I still 658 00:34:21,280 --> 00:34:24,560 Speaker 4: started every three months. I had it set at the 659 00:34:24,600 --> 00:34:27,120 Speaker 4: beginning of each quarter, first quarter, second quarter, third quarter, 660 00:34:27,120 --> 00:34:29,560 Speaker 4: and so on that first Saturday, I would always go 661 00:34:29,560 --> 00:34:31,480 Speaker 4: out and spend a half hour just running the blower 662 00:34:31,520 --> 00:34:33,360 Speaker 4: to make or running the generator to make sure that 663 00:34:33,400 --> 00:34:38,800 Speaker 4: it ran. I kept True Fuel in that never never 664 00:34:39,840 --> 00:34:42,720 Speaker 4: changed from it, never drained it out. It was always active. 665 00:34:42,760 --> 00:34:44,920 Speaker 4: It was always in there. Did I forget once in 666 00:34:44,960 --> 00:34:46,799 Speaker 4: a while to go out and do the generator. Yeah, 667 00:34:46,800 --> 00:34:48,719 Speaker 4: I'd be lying if I said I didn't. You know, 668 00:34:48,760 --> 00:34:51,560 Speaker 4: there were periods of time six months, you know, one 669 00:34:51,560 --> 00:34:53,799 Speaker 4: time I probably forgot about it for longer than that, 670 00:34:54,280 --> 00:34:56,280 Speaker 4: and I came back to it and it still worked. 671 00:34:56,920 --> 00:35:00,880 Speaker 4: I will take true Fuel, you know, ethanol free and 672 00:35:00,920 --> 00:35:02,600 Speaker 4: true fuel happens to be the brand name, but I 673 00:35:02,600 --> 00:35:07,280 Speaker 4: will take true Fuel home depot right, and I've got 674 00:35:07,320 --> 00:35:09,759 Speaker 4: a collection. I've got an assortment. It could be a year, 675 00:35:09,800 --> 00:35:11,719 Speaker 4: a year and a half old. I'll use it in 676 00:35:11,760 --> 00:35:14,160 Speaker 4: the blower and away we go. It works fine, so 677 00:35:14,480 --> 00:35:16,239 Speaker 4: I don't have a problem with it. If it's a 678 00:35:16,320 --> 00:35:18,960 Speaker 4: process to shut down the generator, dodge, leave it in, 679 00:35:19,360 --> 00:35:21,640 Speaker 4: keep running it. You should be checking in on a 680 00:35:21,719 --> 00:35:24,320 Speaker 4: regular basis anyway. But I've had very very good success 681 00:35:24,320 --> 00:35:26,239 Speaker 4: with it. I hope that answers it for you. Till 682 00:35:26,280 --> 00:35:28,720 Speaker 4: the next time.
