So it's always good to hear his voice. 71 00:03:10,160 --> 00:03:11,799 Speaker 1: You can actually go out to YouTube for those of 72 00:03:11,880 --> 00:03:14,080 Speaker 1: you that want to. If you go out to YouTube 73 00:03:14,639 --> 00:03:19,880 Speaker 1: and search either first Lieutenant Stephen Ananian a n A 74 00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:22,560 Speaker 1: and I a n or just uncle, not Uncle Steve, 75 00:03:22,560 --> 00:03:23,560 Speaker 1: but Stephen Ananian. 76 00:03:24,400 --> 00:03:25,280 Speaker 4: He actually did. 77 00:03:25,160 --> 00:03:28,480 Speaker 1: A few YouTube videos at various colleges and universities where 78 00:03:28,480 --> 00:03:32,400 Speaker 1: he talked about some of the things that transpired and 79 00:03:32,520 --> 00:03:35,120 Speaker 1: some of the stories. And he actually told a few 80 00:03:35,160 --> 00:03:38,600 Speaker 1: that I hadn't heard, And then again he retold a 81 00:03:38,600 --> 00:03:40,400 Speaker 1: few that I knew about that I had a better 82 00:03:40,480 --> 00:03:43,600 Speaker 1: understanding of what he was about, especially the one where 83 00:03:43,600 --> 00:03:45,480 Speaker 1: he dated the librarian to get That's a whole nother 84 00:03:45,520 --> 00:03:48,760 Speaker 1: story out in Cleveland. But that's an Uncle Steve's story. 85 00:03:48,800 --> 00:03:49,680 Speaker 1: We'll leave to YouTube. 86 00:03:49,800 --> 00:03:50,840 Speaker 4: Let's get the phones open. 87 00:03:50,920 --> 00:03:53,840 Speaker 1: Let's go to Let's go to Frank and Staten Island, 88 00:03:53,880 --> 00:03:56,560 Speaker 1: New York, nineteen Honda, Frank, Welcome to the car, doctor, sir, 89 00:03:56,560 --> 00:03:57,160 Speaker 1: how can I help? 90 00:03:58,440 --> 00:04:01,240 Speaker 6: Thank you so much for telling nicall. So basically, about 91 00:04:01,320 --> 00:04:04,520 Speaker 6: a month or so ago, I'm driving and I'm touching 92 00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:08,840 Speaker 6: the touchscreen to change a radio station. It wasn't responding, OK. 93 00:04:09,240 --> 00:04:13,640 Speaker 6: So then then I noticed that the buying control wasn't working. 94 00:04:13,720 --> 00:04:16,200 Speaker 6: So I'm getting a little concerned here that I can't 95 00:04:16,440 --> 00:04:20,960 Speaker 6: control the entertainment system. But the little controls on the 96 00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:23,600 Speaker 6: stereos seemed to be working, so I didn't know what 97 00:04:23,640 --> 00:04:26,000 Speaker 6: was going on. I started poking around on the internet. 98 00:04:26,080 --> 00:04:28,359 Speaker 6: They said, well, maybe you have to disconnect the battery 99 00:04:28,480 --> 00:04:31,479 Speaker 6: to reset the thing. It's a little bit far fetched 100 00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:35,320 Speaker 6: for me to start taking the battery connectors off. Yeah, 101 00:04:36,920 --> 00:04:40,240 Speaker 6: So I parked the car and then overnight had come back. 102 00:04:40,279 --> 00:04:42,440 Speaker 6: The next morning, I thought what was going to happen now, 103 00:04:42,480 --> 00:04:46,080 Speaker 6: and it seemed to start working again, And it happened 104 00:04:46,120 --> 00:04:49,080 Speaker 6: a few times since that, so I'm not sure what's 105 00:04:49,120 --> 00:04:49,599 Speaker 6: going on. 106 00:04:50,080 --> 00:04:51,320 Speaker 4: How long have you own the car? You on the 107 00:04:51,320 --> 00:04:52,480 Speaker 4: car since new, Frank. 108 00:04:53,279 --> 00:04:55,400 Speaker 6: Yeah, I bought it new in nineteen yes, okay. 109 00:04:55,440 --> 00:04:56,520 Speaker 4: And how many miles are on it? 110 00:04:57,560 --> 00:04:59,920 Speaker 6: About twenty thousand, right, you know? 111 00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:01,800 Speaker 4: So what I wouldn't fool around with it. 112 00:05:01,880 --> 00:05:03,560 Speaker 1: I would go talk to the Honda dealer and I 113 00:05:03,600 --> 00:05:08,360 Speaker 1: would pay for a diagnostic hour, and I wouldn't disconnect 114 00:05:08,360 --> 00:05:11,200 Speaker 1: the battery. I would want them if there's any faults 115 00:05:11,240 --> 00:05:14,239 Speaker 1: to retrieve. I would at least get it on record. 116 00:05:14,760 --> 00:05:17,680 Speaker 1: Because those systems have been pretty bulletproof. Listen to what 117 00:05:17,760 --> 00:05:21,440 Speaker 1: I say, they've been pretty bulletproof. They tend to work 118 00:05:21,600 --> 00:05:25,080 Speaker 1: very well. So if you've got a problem, it's going 119 00:05:25,160 --> 00:05:29,120 Speaker 1: to be something different or unusual. To my knowledge, I 120 00:05:29,120 --> 00:05:31,000 Speaker 1: haven't seen a lot of headaches with those vehicles like 121 00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:34,159 Speaker 1: you're describing different different manufacturer. If we were talking about 122 00:05:34,160 --> 00:05:36,320 Speaker 1: a Ford, I'd tell you it's one of a half 123 00:05:36,320 --> 00:05:37,520 Speaker 1: a dozen possibilities. 124 00:05:37,760 --> 00:05:39,440 Speaker 4: But I want to get it on record with them. 125 00:05:39,720 --> 00:05:41,640 Speaker 1: I want them and also would allow you to pick 126 00:05:41,680 --> 00:05:44,120 Speaker 1: their brain and oh, yeah, we've had a few of these. 127 00:05:44,200 --> 00:05:49,200 Speaker 1: That was this, because understand what's happening there. That screen 128 00:05:49,640 --> 00:05:52,640 Speaker 1: is just a response screen that feeds out through a 129 00:05:52,680 --> 00:05:56,680 Speaker 1: cable to a control computer that then performs the heavy lifting, 130 00:05:56,920 --> 00:06:00,440 Speaker 1: that then performs all the control changes. So, you know, 131 00:06:00,480 --> 00:06:02,839 Speaker 1: do we have a problem with the screen, do we 132 00:06:02,839 --> 00:06:04,400 Speaker 1: have a problem with the cable? Do we have a 133 00:06:04,440 --> 00:06:07,880 Speaker 1: problem with the control module? And that's what some of 134 00:06:07,920 --> 00:06:10,200 Speaker 1: this testing may or may not tell us because the 135 00:06:10,240 --> 00:06:14,280 Speaker 1: problem isn't active at this moment. But you may also 136 00:06:14,360 --> 00:06:17,840 Speaker 1: find walking into the Honda dealer, do the diagnostic, you know, 137 00:06:17,920 --> 00:06:19,920 Speaker 1: and if you ask them what is your best guess 138 00:06:20,040 --> 00:06:21,960 Speaker 1: see what they say. They may come back and they say, well, 139 00:06:21,960 --> 00:06:23,919 Speaker 1: we had twelve of these over the last two years, 140 00:06:24,320 --> 00:06:27,000 Speaker 1: and eight out of twelve was the display. 141 00:06:27,080 --> 00:06:27,440 Speaker 6: You know, it. 142 00:06:28,240 --> 00:06:30,440 Speaker 1: Some of this, some of this is not you know, 143 00:06:30,520 --> 00:06:33,440 Speaker 1: some of this is not an exact science, because, like 144 00:06:33,480 --> 00:06:36,040 Speaker 1: I said, that system is fairly bulletproof, but I would 145 00:06:36,080 --> 00:06:38,120 Speaker 1: want to make sure. I would want to know do 146 00:06:38,200 --> 00:06:41,400 Speaker 1: we have fault codes? Understand that is that is a 147 00:06:41,400 --> 00:06:45,520 Speaker 1: perfect example of a giant computer network, and you know 148 00:06:46,040 --> 00:06:49,560 Speaker 1: it's possible disconnecting the battery may bring the system back 149 00:06:49,600 --> 00:06:52,479 Speaker 1: to life if it were completely locked up. You know, 150 00:06:52,520 --> 00:06:54,440 Speaker 1: have you ever had a Windows update go through and 151 00:06:54,480 --> 00:06:56,840 Speaker 1: it just didn't go through and you kind of croached 152 00:06:56,839 --> 00:06:58,440 Speaker 1: it and you pulled the plug. 153 00:06:58,760 --> 00:06:59,840 Speaker 4: You hoped it came back. 154 00:07:01,640 --> 00:07:05,760 Speaker 1: Same idea, all right, but before we do that and 155 00:07:05,880 --> 00:07:09,440 Speaker 1: possibly hurt something. If it were me, I'd be willing 156 00:07:09,480 --> 00:07:11,680 Speaker 1: to spend whatever it is, the two hundred dollars diagnostic 157 00:07:11,760 --> 00:07:14,960 Speaker 1: charge and at least have something on record, because if 158 00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:17,480 Speaker 1: they can't find a problem and it goes on for 159 00:07:17,560 --> 00:07:19,520 Speaker 1: another four or five, six, seven months, when all of 160 00:07:19,560 --> 00:07:22,360 Speaker 1: a sudden two years from now, Honda comes out and says, hey, 161 00:07:22,400 --> 00:07:24,920 Speaker 1: we realize we've got a bunch of defective display modules. 162 00:07:25,280 --> 00:07:28,400 Speaker 1: We're going to extend the warranty on them. Whatever, you've 163 00:07:28,400 --> 00:07:31,320 Speaker 1: got documentation proof that you tried to solve the problem 164 00:07:31,400 --> 00:07:34,120 Speaker 1: before you know what I mean, it's a you know, 165 00:07:34,200 --> 00:07:37,120 Speaker 1: two hundred dollars and a diagnostic charge for what that 166 00:07:37,160 --> 00:07:39,720 Speaker 1: car costs. Knew, for what that car costs to replace. 167 00:07:39,800 --> 00:07:42,560 Speaker 1: It's not worth even thinking about because at twenty thousand 168 00:07:42,560 --> 00:07:45,640 Speaker 1: miles you shouldn't be having this issue, all right. 169 00:07:45,840 --> 00:07:47,080 Speaker 4: At sixty thousand. 170 00:07:46,800 --> 00:07:49,120 Speaker 1: Miles you shouldn't be having this issue, but definitely not 171 00:07:49,200 --> 00:07:52,200 Speaker 1: at twenty. So I think it's worth at least one 172 00:07:52,240 --> 00:07:53,720 Speaker 1: shot to the dealer to see what they can do 173 00:07:53,880 --> 00:07:54,160 Speaker 1: for you. 174 00:07:55,280 --> 00:07:59,280 Speaker 6: Those senses lastely could diagnose if there's a miscommunication between 175 00:07:59,320 --> 00:08:00,600 Speaker 6: all those different components. 176 00:08:00,760 --> 00:08:04,320 Speaker 1: They if well, first of all, if there's a current 177 00:08:04,440 --> 00:08:08,600 Speaker 1: fault where components aren't talking to one another, it will 178 00:08:08,600 --> 00:08:13,320 Speaker 1: pick up a communication issue, all right, depending upon manufacturer 179 00:08:13,400 --> 00:08:16,960 Speaker 1: and how in depth the engineers have designed the system. Yes, 180 00:08:17,200 --> 00:08:21,080 Speaker 1: certain manufacturers, certain vehicles have the ability to show you 181 00:08:21,120 --> 00:08:23,880 Speaker 1: a U fault code. A U fault is a communication 182 00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:28,520 Speaker 1: between on the CAN network, which is the controlled area network, 183 00:08:28,520 --> 00:08:31,280 Speaker 1: which is the computer network. They will show you a 184 00:08:31,440 --> 00:08:36,240 Speaker 1: history communication fault, meaning it lost communication with this module. 185 00:08:36,720 --> 00:08:39,440 Speaker 1: So it's worth it just to see if it comes 186 00:08:39,440 --> 00:08:42,240 Speaker 1: back and says, hey, there's no communication faults, and that's 187 00:08:42,240 --> 00:08:43,880 Speaker 1: actually going to be one of your questions when they 188 00:08:43,880 --> 00:08:45,880 Speaker 1: come back to you with the report. Frank, we don't 189 00:08:45,880 --> 00:08:48,120 Speaker 1: see anything wrong with it. You're going to ask them, 190 00:08:48,360 --> 00:08:51,680 Speaker 1: does this system have the ability to show me history 191 00:08:52,040 --> 00:08:56,480 Speaker 1: communication faults? If a module or component went down, would 192 00:08:56,480 --> 00:09:00,440 Speaker 1: it at least store in memory and it if it's 193 00:09:00,600 --> 00:09:02,720 Speaker 1: If it does, it's only going to be for X 194 00:09:02,760 --> 00:09:04,679 Speaker 1: amount of time, so it's to your advantage to get 195 00:09:04,679 --> 00:09:07,920 Speaker 1: it in there as soon as possible after the condition occurs. 196 00:09:08,120 --> 00:09:08,920 Speaker 4: Does that make sense? 197 00:09:10,040 --> 00:09:10,280 Speaker 3: Sure? 198 00:09:10,440 --> 00:09:13,679 Speaker 6: Definitely? Okay, all right, so that's great. Then we'll say 199 00:09:13,840 --> 00:09:15,200 Speaker 6: thank you so much for the information. 200 00:09:15,280 --> 00:09:17,040 Speaker 1: You're very welcome.

Yeah, all right, so you know. 260 00:12:28,280 --> 00:12:30,920 Speaker 1: No fuel in the tank. Just disconnect the coil wire, 261 00:12:31,000 --> 00:12:33,840 Speaker 1: make sure it doesn't kick. What's the oil look like 262 00:12:33,880 --> 00:12:34,640 Speaker 1: in the crank case? 263 00:12:35,840 --> 00:12:39,480 Speaker 3: Fine? Okay, I radiated radiator is going to have to 264 00:12:39,520 --> 00:12:43,840 Speaker 3: be recorder changed. Yeah, but I didn't see anything else 265 00:12:43,880 --> 00:12:44,480 Speaker 3: wrong with it. 266 00:12:44,559 --> 00:12:48,200 Speaker 4: I want to know, can I get oil pressure? I would? 267 00:12:48,520 --> 00:12:50,160 Speaker 1: You know, I don't know of any other way to 268 00:12:50,160 --> 00:12:51,760 Speaker 1: do it unless we're going to pull the distributor and 269 00:12:51,800 --> 00:12:55,800 Speaker 1: prime the oil pump by hand and prime the circuits. 270 00:12:55,960 --> 00:12:56,680 Speaker 4: I would. 271 00:12:57,080 --> 00:13:00,360 Speaker 1: I would spin it over. Does the oil light go out? 272 00:13:00,480 --> 00:13:03,079 Speaker 1: You know, obviously disconnect spark just on the chance that 273 00:13:03,200 --> 00:13:04,160 Speaker 1: somehow it doesn't fire. 274 00:13:04,240 --> 00:13:04,920 Speaker 4: It shouldn't. 275 00:13:05,200 --> 00:13:07,960 Speaker 3: But I just we don't pull plugs and put some 276 00:13:08,040 --> 00:13:09,680 Speaker 3: oil down in there and turn my hand. 277 00:13:10,840 --> 00:13:13,680 Speaker 1: I mean, you could, you know, listen, when I got 278 00:13:13,679 --> 00:13:16,080 Speaker 1: my I've got a seventy two money Carlo, There's no 279 00:13:16,160 --> 00:13:18,840 Speaker 1: secret about it. It was sort of the same situation 280 00:13:19,000 --> 00:13:22,520 Speaker 1: forty one thousand mile car out of Minard, Texas. When 281 00:13:22,559 --> 00:13:25,839 Speaker 1: I got it in twenty seventeen, I looked at it, 282 00:13:25,920 --> 00:13:27,920 Speaker 1: I thought about it. The card been sitting since two 283 00:13:27,920 --> 00:13:31,880 Speaker 1: thousand and four. I reached in battery good boom, boom, boom. 284 00:13:31,920 --> 00:13:35,760 Speaker 1: Started it up, It fired okay, and I made sure 285 00:13:35,800 --> 00:13:39,760 Speaker 1: it had oil pressure. It's the same way I'm telling you. 286 00:13:39,760 --> 00:13:43,559 Speaker 1: You know, it all depends on you know, if there's 287 00:13:43,640 --> 00:13:47,320 Speaker 1: something in those cylinders that you know, whether it's debris 288 00:13:47,480 --> 00:13:49,880 Speaker 1: or rust or something. A shot of oil is not 289 00:13:49,920 --> 00:13:51,960 Speaker 1: going to do much for it, and it just means 290 00:13:51,960 --> 00:13:54,600 Speaker 1: it was stored wrong. So it comes down to, in 291 00:13:54,640 --> 00:13:56,520 Speaker 1: my mind, how easily do you want to find out 292 00:13:56,520 --> 00:13:57,280 Speaker 1: if it's good or bad? 293 00:13:58,640 --> 00:14:03,360 Speaker 3: Well, the cars located in Sacramento, California, so we really 294 00:14:03,400 --> 00:14:08,160 Speaker 3: don't have any corrosion issues, right environment, right dry environment? 295 00:14:08,320 --> 00:14:10,079 Speaker 1: Yeah, yep, yep, yep. 296 00:14:10,160 --> 00:14:11,199 Speaker 4: I would, I would. 297 00:14:11,280 --> 00:14:14,000 Speaker 1: I would crank it around, cranking it around without fire 298 00:14:14,040 --> 00:14:18,480 Speaker 1: in the hall. It shouldn't hurt bearings because there's no load. 299 00:14:19,480 --> 00:14:22,160 Speaker 1: So all I want to know is can I can 300 00:14:22,200 --> 00:14:24,960 Speaker 1: I just get some oil to where it has to 301 00:14:25,040 --> 00:14:28,320 Speaker 1: be if we want to be if if we want 302 00:14:28,360 --> 00:14:30,840 Speaker 1: to do it one hundred percent right on the money, 303 00:14:30,840 --> 00:14:34,080 Speaker 1: the hard way. And I'll say it like that. I think, 304 00:14:34,120 --> 00:14:36,400 Speaker 1: See I'm an adventurous type. I think I'd crank it over. 305 00:14:37,600 --> 00:14:39,280 Speaker 1: You know, I'm going to tell you pull the distributor. 306 00:14:39,760 --> 00:14:41,400 Speaker 1: You know, come up with a drive set up on 307 00:14:41,440 --> 00:14:45,400 Speaker 1: a drill. Uh, you know, prime the pump until the 308 00:14:45,440 --> 00:14:47,760 Speaker 1: light goes out, you know, turn the key on, don't 309 00:14:47,760 --> 00:14:48,160 Speaker 1: crank it. 310 00:14:48,200 --> 00:14:49,280 Speaker 4: You'll see the oil light on. 311 00:14:50,040 --> 00:14:54,440 Speaker 1: And if you prime the cylinders or I'm sorry, prime 312 00:14:54,480 --> 00:14:56,640 Speaker 1: the oil pump till it fills all its galleys and 313 00:14:56,680 --> 00:14:59,160 Speaker 1: then the light goes out. But that still doesn't ensure 314 00:14:59,200 --> 00:15:02,520 Speaker 1: that I'm getting oil everywhere. Sure you know I'm not 315 00:15:02,560 --> 00:15:03,880 Speaker 1: getting any oil on the walls. 316 00:15:03,880 --> 00:15:04,160 Speaker 4: Okay. 317 00:15:04,200 --> 00:15:06,040 Speaker 1: Then I pulled up, then I pull the plugs, and 318 00:15:07,960 --> 00:15:11,280 Speaker 1: you know, in all my experience of playing with older cars, 319 00:15:11,640 --> 00:15:15,520 Speaker 1: I've never I've never lost an engine by doing a 320 00:15:15,600 --> 00:15:18,960 Speaker 1: dry not a dry crank, a no fire crank, get 321 00:15:18,960 --> 00:15:23,960 Speaker 1: oil pressure and then give me spark, give me fuel 322 00:15:23,960 --> 00:15:26,160 Speaker 1: and fire it up. I've never lost an engine in 323 00:15:26,360 --> 00:15:27,760 Speaker 1: fifty three years. 324 00:15:27,760 --> 00:15:31,840 Speaker 3: Okay, So when we when we when we crank it, 325 00:15:32,000 --> 00:15:39,400 Speaker 3: the distributors disconnected, and you expect to get oil pressure 326 00:15:39,480 --> 00:15:41,600 Speaker 3: while we're doing this this prank, right. 327 00:15:41,480 --> 00:15:45,280 Speaker 1: I'm expecting to get oil pressure in ten to twelve seconds, okay? 328 00:15:45,440 --> 00:15:48,000 Speaker 3: Or what about the what about the old fuel in 329 00:15:48,040 --> 00:15:48,480 Speaker 3: the tank? 330 00:15:48,800 --> 00:15:50,280 Speaker 4: Well, is there fuel in the tank? 331 00:15:51,280 --> 00:15:51,800 Speaker 3: Probably? 332 00:15:52,080 --> 00:15:52,440 Speaker 4: Okay? 333 00:15:52,600 --> 00:15:54,560 Speaker 1: Then i want to disconnect the line going to the 334 00:15:54,600 --> 00:15:57,320 Speaker 1: tank because I don't want that. Although by now it's 335 00:15:57,320 --> 00:16:00,160 Speaker 1: gotten up to the carb, right, I mean whatever was 336 00:16:00,200 --> 00:16:01,960 Speaker 1: in the tank was in the carb at some point. 337 00:16:02,720 --> 00:16:02,840 Speaker 2: Uh. 338 00:16:03,760 --> 00:16:05,560 Speaker 4: You know it's it's because then. 339 00:16:05,440 --> 00:16:07,680 Speaker 1: The next the next step is going to be we're 340 00:16:07,680 --> 00:16:09,760 Speaker 1: gonna have to get at the fire. We get oil pressure, 341 00:16:09,840 --> 00:16:12,760 Speaker 1: then we've got to get at the fire. And you 342 00:16:12,760 --> 00:16:14,600 Speaker 1: know what does the inside of the tank smell like? 343 00:16:15,000 --> 00:16:16,000 Speaker 4: Now? Truth be told. 344 00:16:16,000 --> 00:16:18,840 Speaker 1: When I fired up the manty it came out of Texas, 345 00:16:19,640 --> 00:16:23,320 Speaker 1: the tank was, the tank was empty. We put a 346 00:16:23,320 --> 00:16:26,120 Speaker 1: little we we filled. I filled a water bottle with 347 00:16:26,160 --> 00:16:29,760 Speaker 1: some gas and sprits it into the carb. It kicked, 348 00:16:30,240 --> 00:16:32,720 Speaker 1: That told me, and it sounded reasonable. I filled the 349 00:16:32,760 --> 00:16:33,640 Speaker 1: bowl of the carb. 350 00:16:33,720 --> 00:16:34,120 Speaker 4: It ran. 351 00:16:34,800 --> 00:16:38,520 Speaker 1: I uh, then sat there and fired it up and 352 00:16:38,600 --> 00:16:39,240 Speaker 1: let it run. 353 00:16:40,760 --> 00:16:44,200 Speaker 3: You know so so because it has fuel in it 354 00:16:44,320 --> 00:16:47,520 Speaker 3: that's twenty years old, that should I drop the tank? 355 00:16:47,800 --> 00:16:50,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, I would drop the tank and get it boiled 356 00:16:50,680 --> 00:16:53,840 Speaker 1: and cleaned, and you know, maybe they can line the tank. 357 00:16:54,240 --> 00:16:55,760 Speaker 1: Keep that in the back of your head. If if 358 00:16:55,800 --> 00:16:57,640 Speaker 1: the tank has you know, got any kind of rush 359 00:16:57,680 --> 00:17:00,160 Speaker 1: to it. There's a process where a little boil it 360 00:17:00,240 --> 00:17:02,480 Speaker 1: and then there's a there's a coating or a liner 361 00:17:02,920 --> 00:17:06,040 Speaker 1: they put inside the tank. It's basically it's sort of 362 00:17:06,080 --> 00:17:08,879 Speaker 1: like painting the inside of the tank. It's it's a 363 00:17:08,600 --> 00:17:10,600 Speaker 1: it's some type of I want to use the word 364 00:17:10,640 --> 00:17:13,000 Speaker 1: your thing, but I don't know if that's accurate, where 365 00:17:13,040 --> 00:17:15,240 Speaker 1: once they clean the tank out, they will pour this 366 00:17:15,320 --> 00:17:18,160 Speaker 1: in there and then just basically tumble the tank over 367 00:17:18,240 --> 00:17:20,320 Speaker 1: and over and over, because finding a tank for a 368 00:17:20,359 --> 00:17:22,879 Speaker 1: seventy eight Grand Marquis is probably going to be difficult 369 00:17:22,880 --> 00:17:27,000 Speaker 1: at best. But the idea is you'll encapsulate any contaminant, rust, 370 00:17:27,359 --> 00:17:29,359 Speaker 1: anything that's you know, burnished into the metal that you 371 00:17:29,359 --> 00:17:31,600 Speaker 1: don't want obviously getting into the fuel and. 372 00:17:31,680 --> 00:17:33,720 Speaker 3: Work plastic then. 373 00:17:34,080 --> 00:17:40,800 Speaker 1: Seventy eight, I don't recall. I thought they were metal. 374 00:17:41,000 --> 00:17:43,000 Speaker 1: I didn't think the plastic tanks started coming along until 375 00:17:43,000 --> 00:17:43,719 Speaker 1: the early eighties. 376 00:17:44,800 --> 00:17:47,879 Speaker 3: I can't I don't know. I can't tell you, but 377 00:17:48,080 --> 00:17:51,440 Speaker 3: I mean, finding one shouldn't be too bad because it's 378 00:17:51,560 --> 00:17:53,920 Speaker 3: it's the same as a Lincoln town Car, same as 379 00:17:53,920 --> 00:17:54,560 Speaker 3: an LTD. 380 00:17:55,119 --> 00:17:58,040 Speaker 1: Right, right, Well, let's see if let's let's let's see 381 00:17:58,080 --> 00:18:00,400 Speaker 1: if we've got that to tell you the truth, and 382 00:18:00,440 --> 00:18:02,239 Speaker 1: you bring up a good point. When you drop the 383 00:18:02,280 --> 00:18:05,119 Speaker 1: tank or lower the tank, we don't drop anything in 384 00:18:05,200 --> 00:18:07,439 Speaker 1: order to repair. When you lower the tank, it's going 385 00:18:07,520 --> 00:18:09,720 Speaker 1: to be a case of does the fuel pump I'm sorry, 386 00:18:09,800 --> 00:18:11,800 Speaker 1: does the fuel gauge work? We need to get the 387 00:18:11,800 --> 00:18:14,560 Speaker 1: fuel sending unit rebuilt. That's twenty three years old that 388 00:18:14,680 --> 00:18:16,080 Speaker 1: I had to replace on my Monty. 389 00:18:16,200 --> 00:18:18,520 Speaker 4: So some basics to get it started. Once you get 390 00:18:18,520 --> 00:18:20,480 Speaker 4: it started, Mike, give me a call back. 391 00:18:20,480 --> 00:18:22,080 Speaker 1: We can talk about the rest of it. I'm Rnning 392 00:18:22,080 --> 00:18:24,240 Speaker 1: Andy and the car doctor. I'll return right after this 393 00:18:45,359 --> 00:18:49,040 Speaker 1: and we continue repairing cars. Let's go over Bob in Virginia. 394 00:18:49,560 --> 00:18:52,080 Speaker 1: Oh wait, land Rover. Wait, the land Rover fan club 395 00:18:52,160 --> 00:18:53,960 Speaker 1: is out today. This is our second land Rover phone 396 00:18:54,000 --> 00:18:54,800 Speaker 1: call this weekend. 397 00:18:55,320 --> 00:18:56,480 Speaker 4: So how are you, Bob? 398 00:18:56,920 --> 00:18:58,520 Speaker 5: I'm doing great, Sorry, thank you. 399 00:18:58,600 --> 00:18:59,200 Speaker 4: What's going on? 400 00:19:00,960 --> 00:19:04,920 Speaker 5: It's two thousand and eight range over sh the large 401 00:19:04,960 --> 00:19:07,960 Speaker 5: body four point four. I've got about two hundred and 402 00:19:08,000 --> 00:19:11,960 Speaker 5: forty thousand miles on it. I've had five of them, 403 00:19:12,000 --> 00:19:16,240 Speaker 5: pretty familiar with their peculiarities, and last one I got 404 00:19:16,320 --> 00:19:21,840 Speaker 5: rid of it three hundred thousand miles anyway on highway driving. Well, 405 00:19:21,840 --> 00:19:26,480 Speaker 5: when I start the car, they dash always says transmission malfunction, 406 00:19:27,000 --> 00:19:29,840 Speaker 5: transmission vault. So when I'm on the highway, I drive it. 407 00:19:31,080 --> 00:19:34,040 Speaker 5: If I accelerate, like going up a hill, it just 408 00:19:34,200 --> 00:19:37,760 Speaker 5: locks into a lower gear, So I have to pull off, 409 00:19:38,280 --> 00:19:40,760 Speaker 5: turn it off, turn it back on, and then keep 410 00:19:40,800 --> 00:19:44,560 Speaker 5: on going. I've done a lot of checking. Of course, 411 00:19:44,600 --> 00:19:49,000 Speaker 5: amcode wants to put in a rebuilt or a replacement transmission. 412 00:19:49,040 --> 00:19:52,160 Speaker 5: My mechanics say, is the same thing from what I've read? 413 00:19:52,359 --> 00:19:56,840 Speaker 5: Is it a possibility that it's sol annoids in that transmission? Sure? 414 00:19:56,880 --> 00:20:01,359 Speaker 4: Absolutely absolutely. What fault codes are in it, I don't know. 415 00:20:01,520 --> 00:20:04,720 Speaker 5: Haven't they ran it, but I don't know what they are. 416 00:20:04,840 --> 00:20:09,760 Speaker 1: Okay, So you know, not knowing fault codes, we're gonna 417 00:20:09,800 --> 00:20:14,200 Speaker 1: we're gonna, you know, make some assumptions, which is dangerous, Okay, 418 00:20:14,200 --> 00:20:19,240 Speaker 1: but you know, it's it's it's It could be solenoids. 419 00:20:18,880 --> 00:20:20,560 Speaker 4: It could be a lot of things. 420 00:20:20,960 --> 00:20:24,880 Speaker 1: If this was a fifty thousand mile transmission and it 421 00:20:24,960 --> 00:20:27,919 Speaker 1: was a solenoid fault code, and we could prove solenoids 422 00:20:27,960 --> 00:20:31,360 Speaker 1: being bad, by all means, I'm all for doing solenoids. 423 00:20:31,800 --> 00:20:32,919 Speaker 4: This is a two hundred. 424 00:20:32,640 --> 00:20:37,160 Speaker 1: And fifty thousand mile transmission, and if I have solenoid faults. 425 00:20:37,800 --> 00:20:41,560 Speaker 1: I want to understand what the ramifications are. How hard 426 00:20:41,640 --> 00:20:43,639 Speaker 1: is it to get to those particular solenoids. What are 427 00:20:43,640 --> 00:20:47,080 Speaker 1: they going to cost versus replacing the unit? Because it's 428 00:20:47,160 --> 00:20:49,280 Speaker 1: two hundred and fifty thousand miles, I mean, none of 429 00:20:49,280 --> 00:20:52,000 Speaker 1: it's going to be cheap. It's a range rover, all right, 430 00:20:52,359 --> 00:20:54,920 Speaker 1: So you know a lot of that. You know, makes 431 00:20:54,920 --> 00:20:58,920 Speaker 1: the determination. Now if this is if this is a 432 00:20:59,080 --> 00:21:02,679 Speaker 1: fault code that requires transmission removal to get to the 433 00:21:02,720 --> 00:21:06,520 Speaker 1: component to repair, I think you're putting a trans in it. 434 00:21:07,320 --> 00:21:10,560 Speaker 5: Well, I do know from what I've checked, you can 435 00:21:10,600 --> 00:21:12,800 Speaker 5: reach the solenoids from underneath. 436 00:21:12,520 --> 00:21:16,480 Speaker 1: Right, Yes you can. I'm talking about something else. You know, again, 437 00:21:16,560 --> 00:21:18,639 Speaker 1: we don't know what the fault code is. If the 438 00:21:18,680 --> 00:21:23,480 Speaker 1: fault code is indicative of something else, but you know, 439 00:21:23,560 --> 00:21:25,720 Speaker 1: to jump right into a transmission without knowing what the 440 00:21:25,760 --> 00:21:28,640 Speaker 1: fault cards are codes are, it's sort of a difficult 441 00:21:28,640 --> 00:21:32,399 Speaker 1: conversation to have. It's it's you know, I think I 442 00:21:32,480 --> 00:21:34,400 Speaker 1: need brain surgery, but I'm not sure why I'm getting 443 00:21:34,440 --> 00:21:34,840 Speaker 1: the headache. 444 00:21:35,359 --> 00:21:36,480 Speaker 4: I don't know if it's because my wife. 445 00:21:36,600 --> 00:21:38,280 Speaker 1: You know, my wife hit me with a brick while 446 00:21:38,280 --> 00:21:40,200 Speaker 1: I was sleeping or did I roll over and bang 447 00:21:40,200 --> 00:21:43,679 Speaker 1: my head against the headboard, right, and I got a headache? 448 00:21:43,680 --> 00:21:44,159 Speaker 4: Which is it? 449 00:21:44,800 --> 00:21:49,160 Speaker 5: So I need a fault code that actually shows solnoid problem, then. 450 00:21:49,280 --> 00:21:51,199 Speaker 1: Well, right, I need a fault code that gives me 451 00:21:51,240 --> 00:21:54,840 Speaker 1: a you know, gives me And again, you know, if 452 00:21:54,920 --> 00:21:56,720 Speaker 1: you live by the code, you die by the code. 453 00:21:56,760 --> 00:21:59,720 Speaker 1: We're not saying a solenoid fault code indicates a solenoid. 454 00:22:00,240 --> 00:22:03,199 Speaker 1: It gives us a direction, all right, you know, it 455 00:22:03,240 --> 00:22:06,600 Speaker 1: gives us, it gives us something to test. I can't 456 00:22:06,680 --> 00:22:08,720 Speaker 1: I can't tell you how many guys I talked to 457 00:22:08,880 --> 00:22:11,960 Speaker 1: during the week and how many shops I'll converse with 458 00:22:12,960 --> 00:22:15,080 Speaker 1: by email, and they're talking about, well, it's got this 459 00:22:15,160 --> 00:22:17,919 Speaker 1: particular fault and I changed what the fault code was 460 00:22:17,960 --> 00:22:19,639 Speaker 1: for in the car. Still not fixes. You live by 461 00:22:19,680 --> 00:22:20,920 Speaker 1: the code, you die by the code. 462 00:22:21,000 --> 00:22:23,679 Speaker 4: What is it telling you? We're here to gather information? 463 00:22:24,359 --> 00:22:24,800 Speaker 4: All right? 464 00:22:25,200 --> 00:22:25,320 Speaker 5: Uh? 465 00:22:25,840 --> 00:22:28,680 Speaker 4: You know, so that's that's sort of first steps. 466 00:22:28,680 --> 00:22:31,040 Speaker 1: And then you know, as you say, listen, you know 467 00:22:31,119 --> 00:22:33,200 Speaker 1: the vehicle, you know the particuliarities. I like the way 468 00:22:33,240 --> 00:22:36,200 Speaker 1: you said that. Yeah, they've got more than a few 469 00:22:36,200 --> 00:22:40,840 Speaker 1: odd things going on, all right, if you name me 470 00:22:40,880 --> 00:22:42,000 Speaker 1: I'm here, give me a call back. 471 00:22:42,040 --> 00:22:42,639 Speaker 4: Not a problem. 472 00:22:42,680 --> 00:22:44,720 Speaker 5: I appreciate it, Thank you very well. 473 00:22:45,640 --> 00:22:48,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's it's important. 474 00:22:49,119 --> 00:22:49,280 Speaker 5: You know. 475 00:22:49,960 --> 00:22:54,640 Speaker 1: What's the information about I I think about this kind. 476 00:22:54,560 --> 00:22:55,080 Speaker 4: Of a scenario. 477 00:22:55,119 --> 00:22:55,480 Speaker 3: Where is it? 478 00:22:55,560 --> 00:22:57,920 Speaker 1: Let me find this email. I love the emails you 479 00:22:57,960 --> 00:22:59,479 Speaker 1: guys send me, by the way, I've got more than 480 00:22:59,520 --> 00:23:02,439 Speaker 1: a few, but I don't understand what some of you 481 00:23:02,520 --> 00:23:05,520 Speaker 1: are talking about. Joe rode in here's his message for 482 00:23:05,720 --> 00:23:07,919 Speaker 1: two thousand and eight f three fifty oh two centsor 483 00:23:10,840 --> 00:23:13,400 Speaker 1: I'm not sure what Joe's asking me. I'm not sure 484 00:23:13,400 --> 00:23:16,520 Speaker 1: if Joe's asking me how to replace it, Why to 485 00:23:16,600 --> 00:23:19,480 Speaker 1: replace it? What the fault code is. I'm not sure 486 00:23:19,520 --> 00:23:21,879 Speaker 1: if Joe's telling me he had to replace it. So, 487 00:23:22,560 --> 00:23:27,600 Speaker 1: you know, complete information is just very very important. So 488 00:23:27,800 --> 00:23:29,920 Speaker 1: let's get onto something serious. A common problem for the 489 00:23:29,960 --> 00:23:32,840 Speaker 1: RAM pro master, John writes me another John, from what 490 00:23:32,960 --> 00:23:35,879 Speaker 1: I can read, common problems water pump, hairline crack, and 491 00:23:35,920 --> 00:23:37,600 Speaker 1: the radiator or coolant reservoir. 492 00:23:37,640 --> 00:23:38,840 Speaker 4: He's got a slow coolant leak. 493 00:23:39,400 --> 00:23:41,359 Speaker 1: I have a twenty eighteen with thirty one thousand miles 494 00:23:41,359 --> 00:23:42,840 Speaker 1: on it with the slow coolant leaking. Can I tell 495 00:23:42,880 --> 00:23:44,880 Speaker 1: where the cool is leaking. What are your thoughts about 496 00:23:44,880 --> 00:23:48,480 Speaker 1: adding kseal John, You know what, John, it's not a 497 00:23:48,480 --> 00:23:51,879 Speaker 1: bad idea. You can't lose there, all right. If it's 498 00:23:51,920 --> 00:23:54,520 Speaker 1: a hairline crack and a radiator, if it's something that's 499 00:23:54,560 --> 00:23:57,600 Speaker 1: beyond the scope of budget or repair possibility, or we 500 00:23:57,680 --> 00:24:00,439 Speaker 1: just want to see the reaction, you can't hurt it, 501 00:24:01,160 --> 00:24:03,919 Speaker 1: all right. Case seal will not hurt the vehicle. It 502 00:24:03,960 --> 00:24:08,119 Speaker 1: doesn't clog, it doesn't cause issues in heater cores, all right. 503 00:24:08,280 --> 00:24:10,239 Speaker 1: And that's the whole beauty and purpose of it. And 504 00:24:10,600 --> 00:24:13,520 Speaker 1: there are some older, higher mileage vehicles where we will 505 00:24:13,600 --> 00:24:18,200 Speaker 1: dump K seal in because the cooling system is best 506 00:24:18,200 --> 00:24:22,960 Speaker 1: description seepy. It will give up coolant that just mysteriously 507 00:24:23,040 --> 00:24:26,520 Speaker 1: goes somewhere. And it's it's a you know, higher mileage vehicle. 508 00:24:26,560 --> 00:24:29,320 Speaker 1: That is it worth the expense of tearing it apart 509 00:24:29,359 --> 00:24:31,480 Speaker 1: to find out where it's going. No bottle of K 510 00:24:31,560 --> 00:24:36,040 Speaker 1: seal if it's not seal leak related, and case sal 511 00:24:36,080 --> 00:24:36,960 Speaker 1: can do the job great. 512 00:24:37,000 --> 00:24:38,760 Speaker 4: If it can't, it's not going to hurt anything. 513 00:24:38,760 --> 00:24:41,240 Speaker 1: So by all means, pour a bottle in and you know, 514 00:24:41,560 --> 00:24:45,880 Speaker 1: consider it part of the diagnostic routine. You know, it's 515 00:24:45,960 --> 00:24:49,600 Speaker 1: just it's just really important. Ed writes in from New Jersey. Hey, Ron, 516 00:24:49,640 --> 00:24:52,480 Speaker 1: I just watched the GM six point two recall on 517 00:24:53,960 --> 00:24:56,679 Speaker 1: just watched on the Motor Rail Geek podcast. He went 518 00:24:56,720 --> 00:24:58,680 Speaker 1: into detail about the GM recall. The question is I 519 00:24:58,720 --> 00:25:02,280 Speaker 1: own a twenty eighteen VW that originally required VW five 520 00:25:02,320 --> 00:25:04,920 Speaker 1: oh eight zero forty oil there was a recall in 521 00:25:04,960 --> 00:25:07,359 Speaker 1: twenty nineteen. Then change the motor oil spec to VW 522 00:25:07,440 --> 00:25:10,040 Speaker 1: five zero twenty the Coross twenty five thousand miles on 523 00:25:10,080 --> 00:25:12,320 Speaker 1: it it as well out of warranty. Would it be 524 00:25:12,359 --> 00:25:14,520 Speaker 1: want to switch back to the VW five eight zero 525 00:25:14,600 --> 00:25:18,639 Speaker 1: forty motor oil? You know, yeah, I kind of would 526 00:25:18,840 --> 00:25:21,280 Speaker 1: want the zero forty. I think you've proven that point. 527 00:25:21,280 --> 00:25:23,520 Speaker 1: But then I I want to understand why was Volkswagen. 528 00:25:23,800 --> 00:25:26,199 Speaker 1: And it's interesting the way the manufacturers are playing with 529 00:25:26,240 --> 00:25:29,919 Speaker 1: oil viscosity. You know, in the old days, we used 530 00:25:29,960 --> 00:25:33,000 Speaker 1: to play with motor oil viscosity to cure knocking engines, 531 00:25:33,040 --> 00:25:37,000 Speaker 1: engines with sounds thicker, thinner viscosity, and so on. And 532 00:25:37,040 --> 00:25:40,760 Speaker 1: then as vehicles developed and got more technology in them, 533 00:25:41,200 --> 00:25:43,960 Speaker 1: we were told, don't play with viscosity because it will 534 00:25:43,960 --> 00:25:48,440 Speaker 1: cause engine misfires and create havoc with the onboard computer system. 535 00:25:48,800 --> 00:25:51,439 Speaker 1: You know, I would think and I think ed, and 536 00:25:51,680 --> 00:25:53,639 Speaker 1: I'm switching in my mind back and forth here. But 537 00:25:53,720 --> 00:25:57,000 Speaker 1: you know what, if the zero twenty is working and 538 00:25:57,040 --> 00:25:59,800 Speaker 1: it's the five O eight zero twenty that meets Volkswagen spec, 539 00:26:00,160 --> 00:26:03,600 Speaker 1: I'd stay there. Volkswagen has a reason for it. You know, 540 00:26:03,680 --> 00:26:08,040 Speaker 1: out of warranty doesn't automatically justify switching back. I think 541 00:26:08,080 --> 00:26:11,080 Speaker 1: Volkswagen is looking for more than just warranty issues. I 542 00:26:11,080 --> 00:26:14,160 Speaker 1: think they're looking to protect the brand and provide a good, 543 00:26:14,160 --> 00:26:17,359 Speaker 1: positive experience. So I think you need to stay with 544 00:26:17,400 --> 00:26:20,600 Speaker 1: the zero twenty option and VW five O eight. As 545 00:26:20,640 --> 00:26:24,480 Speaker 1: far as GM is concerned, they've got problems, and that 546 00:26:24,600 --> 00:26:28,320 Speaker 1: six point two liter pickup truck recall going back five 547 00:26:28,680 --> 00:26:31,239 Speaker 1: four or five years, five or six years is going 548 00:26:31,280 --> 00:26:33,320 Speaker 1: to be is and is going to be a major 549 00:26:33,359 --> 00:26:36,600 Speaker 1: headache for General Motors in the coming months and years ahead. 550 00:26:37,040 --> 00:26:39,960 Speaker 1: And it's sad because people ask me all the time, 551 00:26:40,040 --> 00:26:42,000 Speaker 1: what car should I buy? What trucks should I buy? 552 00:26:42,240 --> 00:26:45,760 Speaker 1: We start talking pickup trucks. It's it's hard to recommend 553 00:26:45,760 --> 00:26:48,240 Speaker 1: the GM right now unless it has that six point 554 00:26:48,320 --> 00:26:51,920 Speaker 1: six leader, because the five to three still we see 555 00:26:51,920 --> 00:26:54,600 Speaker 1: problems with active fuel management with lifters when they get 556 00:26:54,600 --> 00:26:56,800 Speaker 1: eight to seventy eighty ninety thousand miles on them. And 557 00:26:56,840 --> 00:26:59,240 Speaker 1: now the six to two recall well, and I will 558 00:26:59,280 --> 00:27:02,960 Speaker 1: say this, once GM gets through this, that's six to 559 00:27:02,960 --> 00:27:05,240 Speaker 1: two is probably going to be a very solid motor. 560 00:27:05,280 --> 00:27:07,240 Speaker 1: It's kind of like living in a town where you 561 00:27:07,280 --> 00:27:10,040 Speaker 1: have bad water. Once they find out the water's bad, 562 00:27:10,080 --> 00:27:12,199 Speaker 1: they do everything they have to and they correct it. 563 00:27:12,640 --> 00:27:14,600 Speaker 1: GM's figured out they've got a problem. They're going to 564 00:27:14,640 --> 00:27:16,560 Speaker 1: do everything they have to to correct it, and then 565 00:27:16,600 --> 00:27:18,439 Speaker 1: they'll build a great motor. But it's sad that it 566 00:27:18,480 --> 00:27:20,520 Speaker 1: has to come to this in order to solve that 567 00:27:20,600 --> 00:27:23,520 Speaker 1: particular problem. Still a big GM fan though at heart. 568 00:27:23,760 --> 00:27:26,240 Speaker 1: Eight five, five, five six zero nine nine zero zero 569 00:27:26,280 --> 00:27:27,680 Speaker 1: run on any of the car Doctor. I'll be back 570 00:27:27,760 --> 00:27:28,320 Speaker 1: right after this. 571 00:27:42,400 --> 00:27:44,080 Speaker 4: Look how America has changed, right? 572 00:27:44,119 --> 00:27:48,080 Speaker 1: I remember twenty years ago, thirty years ago, you could 573 00:27:48,160 --> 00:27:50,280 Speaker 1: drive into a gas station and get air in the 574 00:27:50,320 --> 00:27:54,600 Speaker 1: tires and it was accurate, it was free. And now 575 00:27:54,680 --> 00:27:56,840 Speaker 1: we've evolved into where you can't get air in your 576 00:27:56,880 --> 00:28:01,320 Speaker 1: tires anymore. Micah from Maine. Buddy Micah writes in Hey Ron. 577 00:28:01,359 --> 00:28:03,159 Speaker 1: I took your advice a few years ago and purchased 578 00:28:03,160 --> 00:28:04,920 Speaker 1: a portable battery pack that I keep in the trunk 579 00:28:04,960 --> 00:28:07,240 Speaker 1: of my car in case I ever have a dead 580 00:28:07,280 --> 00:28:09,760 Speaker 1: battery or need to help someone. Last July, I used 581 00:28:09,800 --> 00:28:12,000 Speaker 1: to jumpstart an airplane at a fly and I was 582 00:28:12,000 --> 00:28:14,879 Speaker 1: attending that's right, and Micah's a pilot guide too. Currently, 583 00:28:14,880 --> 00:28:16,720 Speaker 1: I'm looking for something about that size that it's an 584 00:28:16,720 --> 00:28:19,480 Speaker 1: air compressor, something where I can check my tire pressure 585 00:28:19,480 --> 00:28:21,399 Speaker 1: at home rather than having to drive to a filling station. 586 00:28:21,880 --> 00:28:23,840 Speaker 1: Most places up here require you to pay to use 587 00:28:23,880 --> 00:28:26,199 Speaker 1: those air hoses that are most often unreliable, both in 588 00:28:26,280 --> 00:28:29,280 Speaker 1: terms of operation and not offering the correct pressures. I'm 589 00:28:29,320 --> 00:28:31,840 Speaker 1: looking for something that will clamp onto the Schrader valve 590 00:28:32,200 --> 00:28:35,159 Speaker 1: as opposed to need to be screwed on, and preferably 591 00:28:35,200 --> 00:28:37,320 Speaker 1: something about the same size as my battery pack that 592 00:28:37,359 --> 00:28:39,880 Speaker 1: has an air gauge built in, with hopefully an automatic 593 00:28:39,960 --> 00:28:42,080 Speaker 1: shut off that I can set it for the right pressure. 594 00:28:42,520 --> 00:28:45,120 Speaker 1: Do you have any suggestions. I've looked online but I 595 00:28:45,160 --> 00:28:48,600 Speaker 1: can't find very much about it. Typically I'm just topping 596 00:28:48,600 --> 00:28:51,320 Speaker 1: off no more than five pounds and sometimes needing to 597 00:28:51,320 --> 00:28:54,480 Speaker 1: reduce pressure by the same size depending on temperature. Basically, 598 00:28:54,520 --> 00:28:58,160 Speaker 1: my issue is temporary temperature variations from season this season. 599 00:28:58,560 --> 00:29:02,120 Speaker 1: Thanks so much, Micah anytime. I'm not sure if this 600 00:29:02,200 --> 00:29:04,000 Speaker 1: is the answer for you, Micah, but this is what 601 00:29:04,120 --> 00:29:08,440 Speaker 1: I use. I use a Milwaukee portable air inflator. I 602 00:29:08,560 --> 00:29:11,320 Speaker 1: like the Milwaukee inflator. It gives me the ability to 603 00:29:11,360 --> 00:29:15,160 Speaker 1: do pre set. It's a sturdy size. It's bigger than 604 00:29:15,160 --> 00:29:18,320 Speaker 1: that portable battery pack that you purchased. I know which 605 00:29:18,360 --> 00:29:21,880 Speaker 1: one you got. And the thing I like about the 606 00:29:21,920 --> 00:29:24,440 Speaker 1: Milwaukee is that the battery for that is the same 607 00:29:24,440 --> 00:29:27,280 Speaker 1: as all my other cordless power tools. So if you've 608 00:29:27,280 --> 00:29:29,200 Speaker 1: got a cordless drill around the house, or you've got 609 00:29:29,200 --> 00:29:31,120 Speaker 1: a need for a cordless drill around the house, or 610 00:29:31,120 --> 00:29:34,600 Speaker 1: a cordless circular saw or leaf blower or whatever else 611 00:29:35,280 --> 00:29:38,240 Speaker 1: you're going to you know, have around in a typical household. 612 00:29:38,720 --> 00:29:41,920 Speaker 1: The Milwaukee inflator does the job and you can set 613 00:29:41,960 --> 00:29:45,800 Speaker 1: it to you know, your particular temperature, i'm sorry, your 614 00:29:46,400 --> 00:29:50,800 Speaker 1: particular pressure range and walk away from it. I actually 615 00:29:50,800 --> 00:29:52,840 Speaker 1: have it set up in the shop i'm sorry, in 616 00:29:52,880 --> 00:29:55,080 Speaker 1: the garage at home, and I use it to inflate 617 00:29:55,120 --> 00:29:57,440 Speaker 1: the tires on the hot rod when I need to. 618 00:29:57,520 --> 00:30:00,200 Speaker 1: That's where that's my go to. As far as as 619 00:30:00,280 --> 00:30:02,280 Speaker 1: the lock on the straighter the end of the tire 620 00:30:02,320 --> 00:30:05,000 Speaker 1: valve versus a screw on method, you know, that's a 621 00:30:05,040 --> 00:30:08,320 Speaker 1: real problem. That's a headache because I understand where you're 622 00:30:08,320 --> 00:30:11,080 Speaker 1: coming from. All the air inflator, all the hoses make 623 00:30:11,120 --> 00:30:12,440 Speaker 1: it so you have to screw it on. And the 624 00:30:12,480 --> 00:30:16,240 Speaker 1: problem is you go to screw it on and you 625 00:30:16,400 --> 00:30:19,320 Speaker 1: lose one or two pounds that you just got done 626 00:30:19,360 --> 00:30:22,400 Speaker 1: topping up, so you have to over inflate. I solved 627 00:30:22,400 --> 00:30:26,560 Speaker 1: that problem. I purchased something called a lock in flate 628 00:30:27,200 --> 00:30:31,760 Speaker 1: lock Inflate on Amazon and then I went out and 629 00:30:32,520 --> 00:30:34,920 Speaker 1: you can buy them at any auto parts store. It 630 00:30:35,120 --> 00:30:39,680 Speaker 1: is a brass air chuck with a self gripping clamp 631 00:30:40,440 --> 00:30:42,600 Speaker 1: that gives you the ability and it goes that screws 632 00:30:42,640 --> 00:30:44,040 Speaker 1: on to one end of the lock and flate the 633 00:30:44,120 --> 00:30:46,680 Speaker 1: other end of the lock, and flate goes into the 634 00:30:46,800 --> 00:30:49,920 Speaker 1: end of the hose on the Milwaukee And now you've 635 00:30:49,920 --> 00:30:52,040 Speaker 1: got the best of both worlds. You've got a portable 636 00:30:52,080 --> 00:30:56,040 Speaker 1: air inflator right with a good battery. And that's the 637 00:30:56,080 --> 00:30:58,280 Speaker 1: other thing I want to talk about real fast, but 638 00:30:58,320 --> 00:31:01,360 Speaker 1: before I do, you've got to you've got a good 639 00:31:01,360 --> 00:31:05,880 Speaker 1: air inflator with a lock on Strader style clamp, so 640 00:31:05,960 --> 00:31:07,560 Speaker 1: it's just quick on, quick off. 641 00:31:08,320 --> 00:31:08,960 Speaker 4: The thing I like. 642 00:31:09,080 --> 00:31:10,920 Speaker 1: The other thing I like about the Milwaukee Mica and 643 00:31:10,920 --> 00:31:13,520 Speaker 1: for everybody else, is it takes an m a teen 644 00:31:13,720 --> 00:31:18,280 Speaker 1: or their larger battery. If you're inflating tires. Inflating tires 645 00:31:18,360 --> 00:31:21,680 Speaker 1: is you know it varies by size. It takes a 646 00:31:21,720 --> 00:31:24,080 Speaker 1: lot to pump up a flat tire. Shouldn't tire be 647 00:31:24,120 --> 00:31:26,280 Speaker 1: all the way flat or down to five pounds and 648 00:31:26,320 --> 00:31:27,760 Speaker 1: then all of a sudden you've got a aired air 649 00:31:28,200 --> 00:31:31,479 Speaker 1: I find or I found that those little because there 650 00:31:31,520 --> 00:31:34,800 Speaker 1: are some little inflators out there.
