You know, teenage 52 00:02:39,680 --> 00:02:41,640 Speaker 1: years are tough years for anybody that's had a few, 53 00:02:42,400 --> 00:02:44,200 Speaker 1: and you just wonder, how did they go out and 54 00:02:44,200 --> 00:02:46,679 Speaker 1: buy that Where's that five car that we all had 55 00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:49,399 Speaker 1: the opportunity to purchase and drive and abuse and hand 56 00:02:49,440 --> 00:02:51,840 Speaker 1: onto the next guy for five bucks when we were 57 00:02:51,919 --> 00:02:55,200 Speaker 1: kids doesn't seem to exist. You know, you start looking 58 00:02:55,240 --> 00:02:58,520 Speaker 1: at the numbers and you start thinking, you know, you 59 00:02:58,560 --> 00:03:02,079 Speaker 1: need you need twelve grand end to buy a six 60 00:03:02,160 --> 00:03:04,600 Speaker 1: year old car today?

Like, I'm just just thinking as we kicked 63 00:03:10,560 --> 00:03:12,560 Speaker 1: this out of the car doctor off, just to take 64 00:03:12,560 --> 00:03:14,400 Speaker 1: a look at what your kids driving and start to 65 00:03:14,440 --> 00:03:16,520 Speaker 1: think about it and make sure if they are um, 66 00:03:16,600 --> 00:03:18,240 Speaker 1: put them in something with air bags and make sure 67 00:03:18,240 --> 00:03:21,160 Speaker 1: they understand what seat belts are. So just trying to say, 68 00:03:21,240 --> 00:03:23,800 Speaker 1: let's keep our kids safe. Let's kick the garage doors open, 69 00:03:23,840 --> 00:03:26,480 Speaker 1: because we've got the phones are just backed up from 70 00:03:26,520 --> 00:03:29,240 Speaker 1: what fast Harry's telling me, and um, let's get some 71 00:03:29,280 --> 00:03:30,560 Speaker 1: calls out of the way. Let's go over and talk 72 00:03:30,600 --> 00:03:33,760 Speaker 1: to Alan and I think that's Orangeburg, New York. Some 73 00:03:33,880 --> 00:03:36,080 Speaker 1: questions about top tier guests in a new car. Allen, 74 00:03:36,120 --> 00:03:38,560 Speaker 1: Welcome to the car Doctor. How can I help? Yeah, 75 00:03:38,600 --> 00:03:42,280 Speaker 1: I was, buddy, and uh, I didn't think I haven't 76 00:03:42,320 --> 00:03:44,720 Speaker 1: noticed it before. But some of the stations they say, 77 00:03:44,720 --> 00:03:48,840 Speaker 1: this is this top tier gafts uh and you know 78 00:03:48,920 --> 00:03:52,320 Speaker 1: I clicked on it and it comes up with a 79 00:03:52,360 --> 00:03:54,480 Speaker 1: site that tells you that you know it's going to 80 00:03:54,600 --> 00:03:57,360 Speaker 1: do this and that cleans the engine. I mean, is 81 00:03:57,360 --> 00:03:59,880 Speaker 1: there anything to this thing? Oh? Yeah, top Tier Gas. 82 00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:02,680 Speaker 1: It has been around a good ten twelve years. It was. 83 00:04:02,720 --> 00:04:05,400 Speaker 1: It was formed back early two thousand to two thousand three. 84 00:04:05,400 --> 00:04:08,360 Speaker 1: What am I saying longer than that? Right? And it's 85 00:04:08,440 --> 00:04:11,240 Speaker 1: it's really an issue that they're putting specific added is 86 00:04:11,720 --> 00:04:14,760 Speaker 1: into the engines into the fuel today because there are 87 00:04:14,840 --> 00:04:17,719 Speaker 1: issues with carbon deposits and carbon is big. Is as 88 00:04:17,760 --> 00:04:19,680 Speaker 1: big a problem it seems now as it ever was. 89 00:04:19,720 --> 00:04:23,400 Speaker 1: Actually it's worse in a lot of situations because of 90 00:04:23,400 --> 00:04:27,440 Speaker 1: of engine design and fuel injection delivery direct injection engines. 91 00:04:27,839 --> 00:04:30,839 Speaker 1: It's a problem and it's something you've got to be 92 00:04:30,880 --> 00:04:34,160 Speaker 1: aware of. Now. There are quite a few top tier gasolines, 93 00:04:34,800 --> 00:04:37,080 Speaker 1: and you know, there's a lot of manufacturers that are 94 00:04:37,279 --> 00:04:39,800 Speaker 1: Shell is a top tier gasoline. I know that for 95 00:04:39,839 --> 00:04:43,120 Speaker 1: a fact. I believe Exxon Mobile was added recently as 96 00:04:43,120 --> 00:04:45,320 Speaker 1: a top tier gasoline. But if you're buying a car 97 00:04:45,440 --> 00:04:48,480 Speaker 1: and you're concerned about the performance, you're concerned about the maintenance, 98 00:04:48,800 --> 00:04:51,520 Speaker 1: the long term and the longevity of it. You know, 99 00:04:51,560 --> 00:04:54,039 Speaker 1: this is a lease car, I see, Alan, are you 100 00:04:54,080 --> 00:04:56,800 Speaker 1: planning to keep the car long term? Uh? Well, I 101 00:04:57,920 --> 00:05:00,800 Speaker 1: have a least car that's that's going to be running out, 102 00:05:00,839 --> 00:05:04,120 Speaker 1: and I was thinking of buying, uh what's the only 103 00:05:04,120 --> 00:05:07,919 Speaker 1: the turboat, you know, a small car. But things have 104 00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:11,440 Speaker 1: suddenly changed and the bank is offering me, uh, some 105 00:05:11,520 --> 00:05:15,200 Speaker 1: reduction in the you know, to buy out, and this 106 00:05:15,240 --> 00:05:19,040 Speaker 1: car is a two thousand thirteen Christ to the two 107 00:05:19,080 --> 00:05:22,800 Speaker 1: hundred with the Pentis Star engine under eight thousand miles. Uh, 108 00:05:23,040 --> 00:05:26,800 Speaker 1: debating what to do, I would I'm sorry, it's a 109 00:05:26,839 --> 00:05:29,520 Speaker 1: what year that you're currently driving out? A two thousand 110 00:05:29,600 --> 00:05:33,039 Speaker 1: thirteen and it's a it's a Pentis Star Christ the 111 00:05:33,080 --> 00:05:37,120 Speaker 1: two hundred. Um the car that you want to replace 112 00:05:37,160 --> 00:05:39,800 Speaker 1: it with is gonna be a what I was thinking 113 00:05:39,839 --> 00:05:42,240 Speaker 1: of the cruise because you know it's easy on the pocketbook, 114 00:05:42,520 --> 00:05:45,839 Speaker 1: right Um, let me ask you this. What's tougher for you? 115 00:05:45,960 --> 00:05:50,919 Speaker 1: Fixed monthly payments or the unexpected repair bill? Uh? You 116 00:05:50,920 --> 00:05:54,240 Speaker 1: know I was thinking, you know, I guess the warranty 117 00:05:54,360 --> 00:05:57,839 Speaker 1: running out. You know, because you are approaching the point 118 00:05:57,960 --> 00:06:00,960 Speaker 1: where and by definition of what it is, it's a machine. 119 00:06:01,400 --> 00:06:03,320 Speaker 1: You know you're gonna start to do some maintenance on that. 120 00:06:05,160 --> 00:06:08,200 Speaker 1: So you know it's got eight thousand miles, Well, but 121 00:06:08,200 --> 00:06:10,280 Speaker 1: you're still gonna pull some maintenance on it. It's still gonna, 122 00:06:10,360 --> 00:06:12,719 Speaker 1: like you say, the warranty is up. You know, whether 123 00:06:12,760 --> 00:06:15,200 Speaker 1: you're sitting in the chair or walking from here to 124 00:06:15,240 --> 00:06:17,560 Speaker 1: the other side of the country, you're still aging. And 125 00:06:17,600 --> 00:06:22,039 Speaker 1: so is that car. So you know at this point 126 00:06:22,240 --> 00:06:25,000 Speaker 1: it's a matter of economic sense. So what what gives 127 00:06:25,040 --> 00:06:29,159 Speaker 1: you the most security that Chrysler is worth X? Or 128 00:06:29,240 --> 00:06:33,000 Speaker 1: is that a lease car? Also? Okay? And what's the 129 00:06:33,040 --> 00:06:38,040 Speaker 1: buy out right now? To buy out his thirteen seven 130 00:06:38,040 --> 00:06:40,640 Speaker 1: o nine? Okay? So it's fourteen thousand dollars. How much 131 00:06:40,720 --> 00:06:45,360 Speaker 1: is the Chevy Cruise? Uh? Probably about okay? Are you 132 00:06:45,360 --> 00:06:48,640 Speaker 1: gonna buy the Cruise release? Okay? In the least payment 133 00:06:48,680 --> 00:06:53,360 Speaker 1: is how much? I don't know yet. I haven't really 134 00:06:53,360 --> 00:06:55,360 Speaker 1: I just went up to the dealer and I sat 135 00:06:55,400 --> 00:06:56,960 Speaker 1: in the car and looked at it to see what, 136 00:06:57,279 --> 00:07:00,000 Speaker 1: you know, it was like, and it's it's pretty nice. Okay. 137 00:07:00,200 --> 00:07:01,880 Speaker 1: So here's here's the way I look at it. And 138 00:07:01,920 --> 00:07:04,200 Speaker 1: this is just me thinking real quick. If I've got 139 00:07:04,240 --> 00:07:08,520 Speaker 1: to lay out fourteen thousand to buy that Chrysler, what 140 00:07:08,600 --> 00:07:10,920 Speaker 1: are the least payments? What's the total cost is gonna 141 00:07:10,960 --> 00:07:13,080 Speaker 1: be to own that Chevy for the next three years? 142 00:07:14,040 --> 00:07:18,600 Speaker 1: If it's If it's fourteen thousand or less, I'd buy 143 00:07:18,600 --> 00:07:22,360 Speaker 1: the Chevy simply because it's fourteen thousand, you're gonna have 144 00:07:22,400 --> 00:07:26,560 Speaker 1: to pay out anyway, right, So you've already paid that 145 00:07:26,600 --> 00:07:29,320 Speaker 1: fourteen thousand less I'm looking at this wrong. If to 146 00:07:29,400 --> 00:07:32,840 Speaker 1: buy the Chevy lease payments and downstroke is twelve grand, 147 00:07:33,000 --> 00:07:37,560 Speaker 1: you save two grand leasing a car. Now the question becomes, 148 00:07:37,760 --> 00:07:39,600 Speaker 1: what are you gonna do in three years when the 149 00:07:39,680 --> 00:07:42,520 Speaker 1: lease is up? You know what you'll make that decision. 150 00:07:42,600 --> 00:07:45,320 Speaker 1: Then you'll know better what your financial situation is. You'll 151 00:07:45,320 --> 00:07:48,360 Speaker 1: know what kind of shape the cruises in. Either way, 152 00:07:48,400 --> 00:07:50,680 Speaker 1: you're gonna have to buy something. You've got to lay 153 00:07:50,720 --> 00:07:54,240 Speaker 1: money out. And and you know, if this was a 154 00:07:54,320 --> 00:07:58,240 Speaker 1: question of buying a Toyota or a Chevy, I tell 155 00:07:58,280 --> 00:08:00,480 Speaker 1: you to probably keep the Toyota. But this is a 156 00:08:00,560 --> 00:08:03,880 Speaker 1: question of a Chrysler versus a GM right now. Chrysler, 157 00:08:03,880 --> 00:08:05,880 Speaker 1: in my eyes, isn't one of the stronger car companies 158 00:08:05,920 --> 00:08:08,280 Speaker 1: out there, and I don't know that I would work 159 00:08:08,320 --> 00:08:11,120 Speaker 1: real hard to hang onto it because of that. I 160 00:08:11,160 --> 00:08:13,320 Speaker 1: think it's a good car. I like them, all right. 161 00:08:13,840 --> 00:08:15,400 Speaker 1: You know when when I when I send people out 162 00:08:15,400 --> 00:08:17,360 Speaker 1: looking at cars, that GM is in the top five 163 00:08:17,400 --> 00:08:19,600 Speaker 1: food group. Uh, you know, it's not my first choice 164 00:08:19,600 --> 00:08:22,600 Speaker 1: anymore like it once was. But I think I think 165 00:08:22,680 --> 00:08:24,640 Speaker 1: GM is a better car than a Chrysler. I'll put 166 00:08:24,640 --> 00:08:26,720 Speaker 1: it to you that way. From what I'm saying, And 167 00:08:27,080 --> 00:08:29,600 Speaker 1: to me, one of the things I I base that 168 00:08:29,640 --> 00:08:32,840 Speaker 1: on and then I'm gonna go is simply that I 169 00:08:32,880 --> 00:08:35,840 Speaker 1: look at the car company. How do they allow people 170 00:08:35,880 --> 00:08:37,800 Speaker 1: to work on the car? You know what? It's easy 171 00:08:37,840 --> 00:08:39,800 Speaker 1: for me to get Ford information. It's easy for me 172 00:08:39,840 --> 00:08:43,640 Speaker 1: to get Toyota information. Handa has gotten much better. GM 173 00:08:43,679 --> 00:08:47,240 Speaker 1: has gotten much better. Chrysler still makes it difficult. They 174 00:08:47,240 --> 00:08:49,920 Speaker 1: still have from the numbers I saw as of Thursday 175 00:08:49,920 --> 00:08:52,960 Speaker 1: when we last looked at this, the most expensive way 176 00:08:53,000 --> 00:08:55,720 Speaker 1: to purchase a dealer level scan tool of the top 177 00:08:55,760 --> 00:08:58,640 Speaker 1: five that I always talked about. Now, why would I 178 00:08:58,640 --> 00:08:59,880 Speaker 1: tell you to go out and buy a car that 179 00:08:59,880 --> 00:09:02,240 Speaker 1: I can't get access to, that I can't get information on. 180 00:09:02,320 --> 00:09:04,520 Speaker 1: It's difficult for me to deal with that. The parts 181 00:09:04,559 --> 00:09:07,000 Speaker 1: I've experienced over the last two years, if I can 182 00:09:07,040 --> 00:09:10,800 Speaker 1: get them, have gone up anywhere from It doesn't make 183 00:09:10,800 --> 00:09:14,280 Speaker 1: any sense. CHRISTI is not the car, not yet. They've 184 00:09:14,280 --> 00:09:16,800 Speaker 1: got a long ways to go. How how about the 185 00:09:16,960 --> 00:09:22,240 Speaker 1: stop technology? Yeah, that's that's you know what, and it's working. 186 00:09:22,800 --> 00:09:25,000 Speaker 1: And I don't think I don't think that's something we 187 00:09:25,000 --> 00:09:27,719 Speaker 1: can get away from. Alan, I really don't. As much 188 00:09:27,760 --> 00:09:29,439 Speaker 1: as I cringe at it myself, and it takes a 189 00:09:29,440 --> 00:09:32,280 Speaker 1: little getting used to. Unless you've got a car, unless 190 00:09:32,280 --> 00:09:33,440 Speaker 1: you're gonna go out and buy a car. In the 191 00:09:33,440 --> 00:09:36,280 Speaker 1: next six months, I think I think everything beginning seen 192 00:09:36,600 --> 00:09:39,120 Speaker 1: or just about everything is gonna be start stop technology 193 00:09:39,520 --> 00:09:42,400 Speaker 1: and that's just gonna redefine a lot of things. So 194 00:09:42,600 --> 00:09:44,720 Speaker 1: but you know what change is good, let's live it up. 195 00:09:44,720 --> 00:09:48,000 Speaker 1: We're only here a short time, all right, kiddoh, thank 196 00:09:48,040 --> 00:09:50,120 Speaker 1: you very much. You're very welcome. Allen, Good luck to you. 197 00:09:51,320 --> 00:09:54,000 Speaker 1: Zero zero running anading the car doctor. We are back 198 00:09:54,120 --> 00:10:27,600 Speaker 1: right after this. M R. Welcome back. We're not needing 199 00:10:27,640 --> 00:10:31,360 Speaker 1: the car doctor. Eight five five five zero zero zero. 200 00:10:31,559 --> 00:10:34,800 Speaker 1: That's the phone number. Cookie eight five five five eight 201 00:10:34,800 --> 00:10:38,800 Speaker 1: five five five zero nine zero zero. I gotta chuckle 202 00:10:38,840 --> 00:10:40,480 Speaker 1: out of Tom Ray for that. He knows what I'm 203 00:10:40,480 --> 00:10:44,640 Speaker 1: talking about. Zero zero is the phone number. Give the 204 00:10:44,640 --> 00:10:46,920 Speaker 1: car doctor a call. Seven is there all the time. 205 00:10:47,160 --> 00:10:49,520 Speaker 1: Wait the words of wisdom from Tom. We're going to, 206 00:10:49,840 --> 00:10:51,880 Speaker 1: you know, do some service on that mouth of yours 207 00:10:51,840 --> 00:10:53,800 Speaker 1: and understand it's new. It should be broken and should 208 00:10:53,840 --> 00:10:55,200 Speaker 1: be broken in by now. I got all the moves. 209 00:10:55,480 --> 00:10:58,040 Speaker 1: So sound on radio is very important. It's not necessarily 210 00:10:58,080 --> 00:11:00,880 Speaker 1: what sound, but it's very important. Speaking of sounds, let's 211 00:11:00,880 --> 00:11:03,040 Speaker 1: go make someone's going to talk to Anthony south Plainfield, 212 00:11:03,080 --> 00:11:06,760 Speaker 1: New Jersey, and some questions about engine start up. Anthony, 213 00:11:06,800 --> 00:11:09,400 Speaker 1: Welcome to the car doctor. How can I help? Thanks 214 00:11:09,400 --> 00:11:12,280 Speaker 1: for taking my call? What's going on? I have a 215 00:11:12,360 --> 00:11:18,000 Speaker 1: two thousand eleven Hondai Equis, and about every three weeks, uh, 216 00:11:18,040 --> 00:11:20,720 Speaker 1: I started and I get a big puff of smoke 217 00:11:20,760 --> 00:11:24,240 Speaker 1: out the back and a knocking noise. Okay, I can't 218 00:11:24,280 --> 00:11:27,200 Speaker 1: seem to figure out what's going on with it? Is it? 219 00:11:27,240 --> 00:11:30,840 Speaker 1: Is it that you started every three weeks, Anthony? Or 220 00:11:31,120 --> 00:11:33,280 Speaker 1: you're you're using it all along with just once in 221 00:11:33,280 --> 00:11:37,679 Speaker 1: a while. Every three weeks you're getting this? Okay? Can 222 00:11:37,720 --> 00:11:39,880 Speaker 1: I ask you what brand of oil filters on the car? 223 00:11:40,600 --> 00:11:46,040 Speaker 1: It's the whatever the dealer uses well, and I would 224 00:11:46,080 --> 00:11:49,800 Speaker 1: assume its original Hyunday. I mean, obviously it doesn't sound promising. 225 00:11:50,120 --> 00:11:52,520 Speaker 1: The reason I ask is Hundai actually has a bulletin 226 00:11:52,600 --> 00:11:55,760 Speaker 1: out there talking about the quality of oil filters, and 227 00:11:56,200 --> 00:11:58,199 Speaker 1: I would imagine if the dealer is doing it making 228 00:11:58,240 --> 00:12:01,840 Speaker 1: sure that it's got um you know, they want an 229 00:12:01,880 --> 00:12:04,160 Speaker 1: O E level and al we spec oil filter on it. 230 00:12:04,679 --> 00:12:06,880 Speaker 1: So that's that's my first though, because I have seen 231 00:12:06,960 --> 00:12:09,559 Speaker 1: some cases where and not just because of this bolt 232 00:12:09,600 --> 00:12:12,200 Speaker 1: and this bullet and actually just highlights it. I'm sorry. 233 00:12:12,200 --> 00:12:14,840 Speaker 1: The bolting number was twelve EM double oh six if 234 00:12:14,840 --> 00:12:17,160 Speaker 1: you wanted to read it. Um, it's a pretty short 235 00:12:17,200 --> 00:12:20,120 Speaker 1: one page bullet and twelve E M Edward Michael double 236 00:12:20,120 --> 00:12:22,400 Speaker 1: O six. And it just talks about doing an oil change, 237 00:12:22,400 --> 00:12:25,320 Speaker 1: making sure you're using a good quality oil filter, and 238 00:12:25,679 --> 00:12:27,800 Speaker 1: you know, other than that you can have engine start 239 00:12:27,840 --> 00:12:31,680 Speaker 1: up and knock issues. So have you noticed this since 240 00:12:31,679 --> 00:12:34,120 Speaker 1: the last oil change or is it every oil change? 241 00:12:34,240 --> 00:12:35,839 Speaker 1: Or how often? Doesn't you know how long has it 242 00:12:35,880 --> 00:12:38,600 Speaker 1: been going on? Well, it happens it's been going on 243 00:12:38,640 --> 00:12:43,600 Speaker 1: pretty much since the car was new. Um, and uh, 244 00:12:43,679 --> 00:12:45,840 Speaker 1: they're using My question really is if I was to 245 00:12:45,880 --> 00:12:50,439 Speaker 1: switch the synthetic oil on this help no, and it 246 00:12:50,679 --> 00:12:53,160 Speaker 1: but it wouldn't make any difference either, and and and 247 00:12:53,240 --> 00:12:55,280 Speaker 1: the answer and and actually I take that back. The 248 00:12:55,400 --> 00:12:59,920 Speaker 1: right the right answer is it couldn't hurt, all right, 249 00:13:00,320 --> 00:13:02,079 Speaker 1: you know, there's there's nothing there that it could hurt. 250 00:13:02,120 --> 00:13:04,440 Speaker 1: You know, the difference between conventional and synthetic is not 251 00:13:04,520 --> 00:13:08,120 Speaker 1: that one's gonna conceal a knock versus the other, synthetic 252 00:13:08,200 --> 00:13:13,360 Speaker 1: oil is a better grade of oil. All right. You know, 253 00:13:13,960 --> 00:13:16,040 Speaker 1: you hear me talk about Pen's Oil all the time, 254 00:13:16,559 --> 00:13:19,439 Speaker 1: and I was talking about pens Oil before Pens Oil 255 00:13:19,520 --> 00:13:23,200 Speaker 1: was here in terms of what they've done, and Pen's 256 00:13:23,240 --> 00:13:26,600 Speaker 1: Oil currently has the top rated synthetic on the market. 257 00:13:26,640 --> 00:13:30,160 Speaker 1: You can read more at Pen's Oil synthetics dot com. 258 00:13:30,200 --> 00:13:32,960 Speaker 1: And one of the things they did that was revolutionary, 259 00:13:33,000 --> 00:13:34,840 Speaker 1: and I went to the big release when they talked 260 00:13:34,840 --> 00:13:36,320 Speaker 1: about this in New York. I think it was too 261 00:13:36,400 --> 00:13:39,880 Speaker 1: maybe three years ago. Is they start their base oil 262 00:13:40,440 --> 00:13:43,880 Speaker 1: from a synthetic nat I'm sorry, from natural gas base stock. 263 00:13:44,520 --> 00:13:48,360 Speaker 1: So you know, natural gases is such a clean element 264 00:13:48,440 --> 00:13:51,200 Speaker 1: to start with, and that's where they make their synthetic 265 00:13:51,240 --> 00:13:54,480 Speaker 1: oils from. They they chemically build it from there. So 266 00:13:54,520 --> 00:13:57,320 Speaker 1: if you start cleaning, you finish cleaner, and that's what 267 00:13:57,440 --> 00:14:01,160 Speaker 1: makes them stand out on everybody's shoulders. Now that being said, 268 00:14:02,040 --> 00:14:06,000 Speaker 1: using synthetic versus a conventional isn't going to be a 269 00:14:06,040 --> 00:14:09,319 Speaker 1: detriment or a plus in terms of the knock and 270 00:14:09,360 --> 00:14:12,240 Speaker 1: the blue smoke you're getting from the engine. All Right, 271 00:14:13,040 --> 00:14:15,920 Speaker 1: I'd be surprised if it fixed that. But the advantage 272 00:14:15,920 --> 00:14:18,800 Speaker 1: you're going to see, especially using something like the pens oil, 273 00:14:19,360 --> 00:14:22,320 Speaker 1: is that Pen's Oil synthetic also has a cleaning agent. 274 00:14:23,200 --> 00:14:28,640 Speaker 1: So one of the pluses is that it will scrub pistons, rings, 275 00:14:28,960 --> 00:14:32,000 Speaker 1: cylinder walls, and he places where varnish deposits are going 276 00:14:32,040 --> 00:14:34,600 Speaker 1: to be formed. And and I have to say it 277 00:14:34,680 --> 00:14:38,200 Speaker 1: like this, just because they're the dealer doesn't mean they're 278 00:14:38,280 --> 00:14:41,840 Speaker 1: using the best top raded oil. I learned this a 279 00:14:41,840 --> 00:14:44,200 Speaker 1: long time ago. And I'm not picking on dealers. A 280 00:14:44,320 --> 00:14:47,320 Speaker 1: repair shop is only as good as the people in 281 00:14:47,400 --> 00:14:49,560 Speaker 1: it and the people that run it and known it, 282 00:14:49,960 --> 00:14:52,880 Speaker 1: all right, And we all know there's some bad guys 283 00:14:52,920 --> 00:14:55,120 Speaker 1: in there, and there's some good guys in there, you 284 00:14:55,160 --> 00:14:57,120 Speaker 1: know what. I know some independent shops that I would 285 00:14:57,120 --> 00:14:59,360 Speaker 1: feel comfortable having my stuff worked on. And I there's 286 00:14:59,400 --> 00:15:01,680 Speaker 1: some independence shopped I wouldn't go in with a gun 287 00:15:02,280 --> 00:15:04,920 Speaker 1: um for fear being robbed, and and that's just the 288 00:15:04,960 --> 00:15:08,560 Speaker 1: way it is. But my my point is, you know, 289 00:15:10,040 --> 00:15:12,440 Speaker 1: I would just what kind of oil are they putting 290 00:15:12,440 --> 00:15:16,960 Speaker 1: in it? All right? Only it's uh right? And then 291 00:15:17,000 --> 00:15:20,440 Speaker 1: whose brand is it? Is? It? Is it? You know? 292 00:15:21,360 --> 00:15:22,960 Speaker 1: And I don't want to tell this story on air, 293 00:15:23,040 --> 00:15:25,000 Speaker 1: but I'm gonna anyway, like you know, I will. I 294 00:15:25,120 --> 00:15:29,160 Speaker 1: remember years ago, uh good, eight nine years ago, there 295 00:15:29,240 --> 00:15:31,400 Speaker 1: was an issue with volkswagens. And it always comes back 296 00:15:31,400 --> 00:15:34,560 Speaker 1: to volkswagons, right. Volkswagen requires their oil to meet a 297 00:15:34,600 --> 00:15:38,880 Speaker 1: certain specification, and we, as an independent repair shop, couldn't 298 00:15:38,960 --> 00:15:43,400 Speaker 1: find that oil from anyone other than one national brand, 299 00:15:43,520 --> 00:15:46,600 Speaker 1: one national vendor at the time. And I'm saying myself, 300 00:15:46,680 --> 00:15:50,360 Speaker 1: but who's Volkswagen using? And we called Volkswagen the dealer 301 00:15:50,400 --> 00:15:52,520 Speaker 1: and we talked to the guys in parts and they 302 00:15:52,560 --> 00:15:55,480 Speaker 1: were just using a bulk product that didn't meet the 303 00:15:55,520 --> 00:15:57,160 Speaker 1: speck And I said, but how can you sell that 304 00:15:57,240 --> 00:16:00,800 Speaker 1: you're the dealer. It doesn't matter. Nobody notices. So you know, 305 00:16:01,560 --> 00:16:04,240 Speaker 1: just because they're the dealer doesn't mean they're doing it right. 306 00:16:04,400 --> 00:16:07,120 Speaker 1: They give you the illusion they're doing it right. You know, 307 00:16:07,320 --> 00:16:09,520 Speaker 1: just because we have a president doesn't mean he's running 308 00:16:09,520 --> 00:16:11,880 Speaker 1: the country in the right direction. Uh. You know, just 309 00:16:11,960 --> 00:16:14,120 Speaker 1: because they're elected in the office doesn't make them the 310 00:16:14,200 --> 00:16:15,760 Speaker 1: be all and end all. We still have to check 311 00:16:15,800 --> 00:16:18,720 Speaker 1: on them from time to time. So you know, it's 312 00:16:18,800 --> 00:16:21,560 Speaker 1: it's I would switch the synthetic I'd give it a shot. 313 00:16:21,680 --> 00:16:24,320 Speaker 1: I have no problem using Pen's oil. If you're gonna 314 00:16:24,320 --> 00:16:26,400 Speaker 1: go to somebody outside the dealership and you want to 315 00:16:26,440 --> 00:16:28,480 Speaker 1: try that for a change, get him to put a 316 00:16:28,520 --> 00:16:31,000 Speaker 1: Wicks filter on it. I know Wis filters are built 317 00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:33,600 Speaker 1: to an original equipment spec I know the quality of 318 00:16:33,640 --> 00:16:36,240 Speaker 1: a Wicks filter. You can read more at Wicks filters 319 00:16:36,320 --> 00:16:38,960 Speaker 1: dot com. All right, and then at least you've tried 320 00:16:39,080 --> 00:16:42,160 Speaker 1: something different. You've baselined it. Now now you know a 321 00:16:42,280 --> 00:16:45,000 Speaker 1: synthetic oil and a different filter or a Wicks filter. 322 00:16:45,360 --> 00:16:47,880 Speaker 1: If you've still got the smoke issue, it's not oil 323 00:16:47,960 --> 00:16:50,920 Speaker 1: filter related. The bulletin doesn't apply. It's going to continue 324 00:16:50,960 --> 00:16:52,360 Speaker 1: to do it from now until the day you get 325 00:16:52,440 --> 00:16:53,760 Speaker 1: rid of the car, because it's done it that way 326 00:16:53,800 --> 00:16:58,160 Speaker 1: since you bought it. Nothing nothing lost, something ventured, something gained. 327 00:16:58,680 --> 00:17:00,560 Speaker 1: All right, Well, I was more worried about the knocking 328 00:17:00,640 --> 00:17:03,160 Speaker 1: and the smoke. But it goes away like after the 329 00:17:03,200 --> 00:17:07,119 Speaker 1: car warms up. Well, you know what it might be, 330 00:17:07,320 --> 00:17:09,560 Speaker 1: Barnish deposits, might be a lift ticket, might be a 331 00:17:09,600 --> 00:17:12,080 Speaker 1: bunch of things. Pennz oil synthetical. Clean that up and 332 00:17:12,119 --> 00:17:14,639 Speaker 1: you'll be amazed at what it can do. Alright, alright, 333 00:17:15,080 --> 00:17:17,040 Speaker 1: you're very welcome, good luck to you. Take good care 334 00:17:17,040 --> 00:17:19,520 Speaker 1: of Anthony. Well, and that's you know, that's part of 335 00:17:19,560 --> 00:17:23,280 Speaker 1: the issue, all right, that you've got to try something different. 336 00:17:23,680 --> 00:17:25,520 Speaker 1: You know. I tried something different the other day. I 337 00:17:25,600 --> 00:17:28,800 Speaker 1: had a I had a two thousand five jeep Grand 338 00:17:28,880 --> 00:17:32,240 Speaker 1: Cherokee came into the shop, actually towed into the shop. Um, 339 00:17:33,160 --> 00:17:35,520 Speaker 1: it was pushed into the shop basically from the curb. 340 00:17:35,560 --> 00:17:38,040 Speaker 1: It had died. They parked it at the house without 341 00:17:38,080 --> 00:17:41,160 Speaker 1: the start of the next morning, no start, didn't start, 342 00:17:42,400 --> 00:17:46,800 Speaker 1: brought it in. I went through the usual. Gee. You know, 343 00:17:47,359 --> 00:17:51,960 Speaker 1: I think this computer is in lock up now. Yeah, 344 00:17:52,080 --> 00:17:55,919 Speaker 1: maybe it is disconnected the battery cables. Let it down. 345 00:17:55,960 --> 00:17:57,480 Speaker 1: I think I told this story last week, but I'm 346 00:17:57,480 --> 00:17:59,879 Speaker 1: gonna tell it again because it really made an imp 347 00:18:00,040 --> 00:18:04,000 Speaker 1: rashing on me. And after doing a bleed down and 348 00:18:04,440 --> 00:18:07,200 Speaker 1: rebooting the computer, the car started up and ran. Fine, 349 00:18:07,560 --> 00:18:10,520 Speaker 1: does it need a computer? Technically, yeah, it went into 350 00:18:10,640 --> 00:18:15,480 Speaker 1: logic lock up. But you know, it's something that five 351 00:18:15,560 --> 00:18:18,680 Speaker 1: years ago we've never done. And cars are changing and 352 00:18:18,720 --> 00:18:21,080 Speaker 1: the technology is changing. You've got to try different things. 353 00:18:21,160 --> 00:18:24,280 Speaker 1: So you know, what if one oil is not working, 354 00:18:24,440 --> 00:18:27,480 Speaker 1: if one repair shops not working, and you talk to 355 00:18:27,600 --> 00:18:29,399 Speaker 1: them and it doesn't get you anywhere. And you know, 356 00:18:29,520 --> 00:18:31,199 Speaker 1: I should have asked, Anthony, did he ever go back 357 00:18:31,200 --> 00:18:34,160 Speaker 1: to the dealer and consider talking to them? And you know, saying, hey, 358 00:18:34,800 --> 00:18:37,159 Speaker 1: what do you guys think the problem is? You know what, 359 00:18:37,359 --> 00:18:39,600 Speaker 1: It's time to look elsewhere. Don't be afraid of change. 360 00:18:39,680 --> 00:18:42,600 Speaker 1: Change isn't necessarily a bad thing. It just takes effort. 361 00:18:42,680 --> 00:18:45,080 Speaker 1: And you know what, we get so focused on why 362 00:18:45,119 --> 00:18:46,879 Speaker 1: we don't want to change, we lose sight of the 363 00:18:46,960 --> 00:18:49,760 Speaker 1: fact that maybe changing is good. So just just some 364 00:18:49,840 --> 00:18:52,240 Speaker 1: point of contention. So Anthony, good luck to you and 365 00:18:52,680 --> 00:18:54,320 Speaker 1: learning how that works out for you. You know where 366 00:18:54,359 --> 00:18:57,639 Speaker 1: to find me. Eight five five zero zero. The car 367 00:18:57,720 --> 00:19:11,440 Speaker 1: doctor is coming back. Don't go away, m every have 368 00:19:13,880 --> 00:19:16,960 Speaker 1: me slipper with you know, welcome back on lending of 369 00:19:17,000 --> 00:19:19,680 Speaker 1: the card doctor. Eight five five five zero nine zero. 370 00:19:19,680 --> 00:19:21,399 Speaker 1: We're going to speed things up a little bit. The 371 00:19:21,480 --> 00:19:23,320 Speaker 1: phones are still backed up. Let's go over and talk 372 00:19:23,400 --> 00:19:27,879 Speaker 1: to Pete. And that is that Winds Poor Connecticut winds 373 00:19:28,040 --> 00:19:31,160 Speaker 1: or Connecticut gotcha winds or Connecticut? Type up? Yeah, Pete, 374 00:19:31,200 --> 00:19:33,840 Speaker 1: what's going on? Hey here, you thanks a lot for 375 00:19:34,160 --> 00:19:39,440 Speaker 1: taking my call. And I have more of a plaint 376 00:19:39,520 --> 00:19:44,040 Speaker 1: than I do. Uh A question about the car. Okay, 377 00:19:44,080 --> 00:19:47,640 Speaker 1: complete departments open. What do you got? So many people 378 00:19:47,720 --> 00:19:50,720 Speaker 1: get into their cars and they take off. They don't 379 00:19:50,720 --> 00:19:53,560 Speaker 1: even turn your headlights down or the or the tale. 380 00:19:53,920 --> 00:19:55,960 Speaker 1: Remember the old days to get the cart or you 381 00:19:56,040 --> 00:19:59,920 Speaker 1: have to pull out the button or or turn to 382 00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:02,680 Speaker 1: during the knob or something, and your lights would turn on. 383 00:20:03,000 --> 00:20:07,280 Speaker 1: Nowadays you get the car, you're running, lights turn on 384 00:20:08,160 --> 00:20:11,280 Speaker 1: tail lights. And my construed is I drive a truck 385 00:20:11,359 --> 00:20:16,120 Speaker 1: and drive a twenty six pound vehicle when it's raining out, Um, 386 00:20:16,880 --> 00:20:20,600 Speaker 1: it's a great kind of night. There were nights, um 387 00:20:21,280 --> 00:20:24,119 Speaker 1: and many many times to come up on people's behind 388 00:20:24,240 --> 00:20:26,840 Speaker 1: and it's like, I don't even see you. I mean, 389 00:20:26,880 --> 00:20:29,159 Speaker 1: if you turn you into your your tail, I donald, 390 00:20:29,240 --> 00:20:33,480 Speaker 1: I won't kill you. I have put uh in the past. 391 00:20:33,560 --> 00:20:36,439 Speaker 1: I was in an accident where the guy stopped right 392 00:20:36,480 --> 00:20:37,960 Speaker 1: in front of me and I had no chance to 393 00:20:38,040 --> 00:20:41,480 Speaker 1: stop them. I put his back of his head and 394 00:20:41,560 --> 00:20:43,560 Speaker 1: they had to use jaws of life to get him 395 00:20:43,560 --> 00:20:47,720 Speaker 1: out of the car. So my complaint is I wish 396 00:20:47,800 --> 00:20:51,960 Speaker 1: the car dealers would come up with a thing where 397 00:20:52,200 --> 00:20:54,800 Speaker 1: the driver sits in the seat or a passengers sist 398 00:20:54,840 --> 00:20:57,960 Speaker 1: in the seat, your tail lights and your headlights turn on, 399 00:20:59,440 --> 00:21:02,920 Speaker 1: not don't have to be pushing buttons anymore. It's like automatic. 400 00:21:03,000 --> 00:21:06,680 Speaker 1: At least this way here, people will see you coming 401 00:21:06,800 --> 00:21:11,879 Speaker 1: and going. And that's what you need. This to stop 402 00:21:11,880 --> 00:21:15,320 Speaker 1: a lot of accidents and what have your word? Possible accidents, 403 00:21:15,800 --> 00:21:19,280 Speaker 1: you know, And you know what, Pete, I agree with you. However, 404 00:21:19,320 --> 00:21:23,080 Speaker 1: I'm gonna play devil's advocate. The problem with that is, 405 00:21:23,480 --> 00:21:26,320 Speaker 1: in a sense, it still doesn't eliminate the idiot behind 406 00:21:26,359 --> 00:21:29,520 Speaker 1: the wheel. That's true. And I think, and I think 407 00:21:29,600 --> 00:21:32,120 Speaker 1: a lot of the problem with the way that accidents 408 00:21:32,160 --> 00:21:35,080 Speaker 1: occur in the way is because people don't respect what 409 00:21:35,359 --> 00:21:37,200 Speaker 1: a car can do. You know, they don't expect, you know, 410 00:21:37,480 --> 00:21:39,280 Speaker 1: look at what your truck weis. Your truck weighs twenty 411 00:21:39,320 --> 00:21:43,200 Speaker 1: six thousand pounds. People don't realize that, you know, even 412 00:21:43,280 --> 00:21:46,679 Speaker 1: in their cars, which are what two tons, four thousand 413 00:21:46,720 --> 00:21:49,800 Speaker 1: pounds and six thousand pounds. You know. I was at 414 00:21:50,040 --> 00:21:52,760 Speaker 1: I was in a four way intersection this morning. The 415 00:21:52,920 --> 00:21:56,280 Speaker 1: fella across from me was in a BMW. He made 416 00:21:56,320 --> 00:21:59,639 Speaker 1: a right. The lady to my right didn't like the 417 00:21:59,720 --> 00:22:02,280 Speaker 1: fact that she didn't let him go. She runs the 418 00:22:02,320 --> 00:22:05,200 Speaker 1: stop sign from a rolling start, starts writing him on 419 00:22:05,280 --> 00:22:07,399 Speaker 1: the tail, blowing her horn, trying to I don't know 420 00:22:07,440 --> 00:22:11,560 Speaker 1: what she was trying to accomplish, and just you know, 421 00:22:11,720 --> 00:22:13,320 Speaker 1: like like we're all in a hurry to get to 422 00:22:13,359 --> 00:22:15,080 Speaker 1: the same place. You know what, a hundred years from now, 423 00:22:15,119 --> 00:22:16,920 Speaker 1: we're all gonna be in the same spot. It doesn't matter, 424 00:22:17,400 --> 00:22:20,919 Speaker 1: all right, We're all in a hurry to go nowhere, 425 00:22:21,119 --> 00:22:23,680 Speaker 1: and we don't realize the danger and what we're doing. 426 00:22:24,240 --> 00:22:27,959 Speaker 1: But it also comes back to I think, and then 427 00:22:27,960 --> 00:22:30,480 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go that people don't respect the car enough 428 00:22:30,520 --> 00:22:34,000 Speaker 1: to repair and maintain it. Can you how cheap? How cheap? 429 00:22:34,119 --> 00:22:36,200 Speaker 1: You know the one I love? How cheap? Can you 430 00:22:36,400 --> 00:22:39,600 Speaker 1: fix my brakes? I love that line, and I get 431 00:22:39,640 --> 00:22:42,600 Speaker 1: it all week long sometimes, so you know, they don't 432 00:22:42,640 --> 00:22:44,879 Speaker 1: stop and think about what breaks are doing for them 433 00:22:44,880 --> 00:22:47,359 Speaker 1: and how they keep them safe and me safe. Pete's 434 00:22:47,400 --> 00:22:49,440 Speaker 1: down the line. I like your point of view, Harry 435 00:22:49,480 --> 00:22:51,399 Speaker 1: sent Peter car doctor t shirt. Let's move on to 436 00:22:51,520 --> 00:22:53,800 Speaker 1: our next person. Let's get over to Matt and Columbus, 437 00:22:54,119 --> 00:22:56,280 Speaker 1: Ohio waiting night Ford Broncho. Hey Matt, how can I 438 00:22:56,320 --> 00:22:59,400 Speaker 1: help you? Running any of the car doctor right your service? Hey, 439 00:22:59,520 --> 00:23:01,440 Speaker 1: thanks for take my callor ondo you welcome, sir? What's 440 00:23:01,480 --> 00:23:05,359 Speaker 1: going on? Okay? I got the Bronco the high idol 441 00:23:05,400 --> 00:23:09,680 Speaker 1: problem fixed. What's you're helping with? Thanks? A lot of problem? 442 00:23:10,080 --> 00:23:15,399 Speaker 1: Is it? Idol is good at about eight hundred fifty RPMs, 443 00:23:16,000 --> 00:23:19,000 Speaker 1: but for probably about two minutes and then it starts 444 00:23:19,040 --> 00:23:23,960 Speaker 1: surging really bad. Okay, Um, you did the idol relearn 445 00:23:24,000 --> 00:23:30,160 Speaker 1: that we talked about? Yes, all right, Um, let's see. 446 00:23:30,200 --> 00:23:31,840 Speaker 1: One of the things I would start to think about 447 00:23:32,000 --> 00:23:35,000 Speaker 1: is and is this is this every time? Matt? Can 448 00:23:35,040 --> 00:23:39,440 Speaker 1: you reproduce this? Yes? Every single time? And I'm not 449 00:23:39,520 --> 00:23:42,360 Speaker 1: sure if how important this is. But the engine that's 450 00:23:42,400 --> 00:23:45,119 Speaker 1: in it has to be out of a layers probably 451 00:23:45,280 --> 00:23:49,440 Speaker 1: ninety three to nine fifty or Bronco because of the 452 00:23:49,520 --> 00:23:53,800 Speaker 1: firing order I noticed is different and what it should be. Okay, yeah, 453 00:23:53,800 --> 00:23:56,080 Speaker 1: that's alright. Engines and engines. So let's try and diagnosis. 454 00:23:56,160 --> 00:23:59,720 Speaker 1: So my first question is is the computer physically changing 455 00:23:59,800 --> 00:24:03,000 Speaker 1: the idle speed by by fluctuating the idol or control 456 00:24:03,080 --> 00:24:06,320 Speaker 1: motor or is this has to be because if if 457 00:24:06,400 --> 00:24:09,720 Speaker 1: I unplugged the well, I'm sorry if I unplugged the 458 00:24:09,880 --> 00:24:17,760 Speaker 1: thrial position sensor. Then the IDOL goes up to about well, 459 00:24:17,840 --> 00:24:20,280 Speaker 1: but that's not valid because the computer is seeing that. 460 00:24:20,640 --> 00:24:23,080 Speaker 1: Here's here's what's need about an eight nine four. This 461 00:24:23,240 --> 00:24:26,680 Speaker 1: is an EKE four system Electronic Engine Control four. So 462 00:24:26,840 --> 00:24:29,119 Speaker 1: this is EKE four. What's need about EKE four is 463 00:24:29,240 --> 00:24:34,080 Speaker 1: EKE four has from them failure mode effects management all right. 464 00:24:34,560 --> 00:24:39,560 Speaker 1: Back in the seventies, Ford Engineering wrote the software. Ford 465 00:24:39,640 --> 00:24:43,320 Speaker 1: Aerospace wrote the engineering for Ford Engine Controls. I gotta 466 00:24:43,320 --> 00:24:45,359 Speaker 1: remember this is the seventies. They didn't have the technology 467 00:24:45,359 --> 00:24:47,040 Speaker 1: and they didn't have the think tank to put this together. 468 00:24:47,440 --> 00:24:51,760 Speaker 1: So Ford Aerospace wrote the software for EKE one, two, three, 469 00:24:51,840 --> 00:24:54,040 Speaker 1: and four. And that's the way I've heard the story 470 00:24:54,359 --> 00:24:56,719 Speaker 1: many times. And one of the things they put in there, 471 00:24:56,760 --> 00:25:00,239 Speaker 1: what do they put on spaceships, Matt, they put put 472 00:25:00,440 --> 00:25:04,440 Speaker 1: you know, redundancy. Right, So it's got failure motor effects management. 473 00:25:04,480 --> 00:25:07,880 Speaker 1: If it sees failure of a critical component, it will 474 00:25:08,000 --> 00:25:09,920 Speaker 1: keep that vehicle running. That's why you go back to 475 00:25:10,960 --> 00:25:13,800 Speaker 1: six eight seven. Fords didn't even have check engine lights 476 00:25:13,880 --> 00:25:16,040 Speaker 1: on their cars. They didn't put them in until the 477 00:25:16,080 --> 00:25:19,520 Speaker 1: government mandated around the middle of eighty nine. So unplugging 478 00:25:19,600 --> 00:25:23,879 Speaker 1: TPMs or TPS or MAP sensor. That's a critical sensor. 479 00:25:24,280 --> 00:25:25,760 Speaker 1: What I would do is I do unplug the idle 480 00:25:25,800 --> 00:25:28,399 Speaker 1: air control motor. If you unplug the idle air control motor, 481 00:25:29,640 --> 00:25:32,720 Speaker 1: then does the idle speed stay constant? If the idle 482 00:25:32,720 --> 00:25:35,720 Speaker 1: speed is constant and it smooths out, then we know 483 00:25:35,840 --> 00:25:38,800 Speaker 1: the computer is pulsing the idle air control motor. Now 484 00:25:38,840 --> 00:25:42,760 Speaker 1: we've got to figure out why. And one of the things. Okay, 485 00:25:43,160 --> 00:25:48,000 Speaker 1: and can you restart it? Yeah? I can restart it 486 00:25:48,160 --> 00:25:52,399 Speaker 1: dies unces I restarted, it will die again immediately, Okay, 487 00:25:53,359 --> 00:25:59,560 Speaker 1: thinking possibly somebody campered with the idle swing. Here's what 488 00:25:59,640 --> 00:26:01,600 Speaker 1: I want. Here's here's what I want you to do. 489 00:26:02,240 --> 00:26:06,480 Speaker 1: That throttle plate Okay, back that throttle plate off. Put 490 00:26:06,520 --> 00:26:13,879 Speaker 1: a vault meter on the throttle position sensor. All right, Okay, 491 00:26:13,960 --> 00:26:16,520 Speaker 1: point nine, If you back that down, does it go 492 00:26:16,680 --> 00:26:21,120 Speaker 1: down any further? I've backed it down to the point 493 00:26:21,200 --> 00:26:23,760 Speaker 1: where the screw doesn't even touch it anymore. Okay. I'm 494 00:26:23,800 --> 00:26:25,479 Speaker 1: not worried about the screw touch on the plate. I'm 495 00:26:25,520 --> 00:26:28,760 Speaker 1: worried about the blade touching the housing. At what point? 496 00:26:29,000 --> 00:26:34,639 Speaker 1: At what point does the tp TPS voltage stop probably 497 00:26:34,840 --> 00:26:39,080 Speaker 1: before probably less than point six votes. Okay, so point six, 498 00:26:39,119 --> 00:26:42,760 Speaker 1: so let's call point six close throttle. You should be 499 00:26:42,880 --> 00:26:44,960 Speaker 1: able to bring that up and make it point eight. 500 00:26:45,200 --> 00:26:48,040 Speaker 1: Give me a good number, make it point eight, make 501 00:26:48,080 --> 00:26:50,440 Speaker 1: it point make it point eight. That should make the 502 00:26:50,520 --> 00:26:55,240 Speaker 1: throttle plate just cracked just to touch. All right, go 503 00:26:55,560 --> 00:26:57,840 Speaker 1: through a relearn you're gonna have to disconnect the battery 504 00:26:57,920 --> 00:27:01,200 Speaker 1: cables like I told you the last time. You should 505 00:27:01,200 --> 00:27:03,159 Speaker 1: be able to start that up as a warm engine 506 00:27:03,200 --> 00:27:05,920 Speaker 1: with no load on it, no a c and that 507 00:27:06,160 --> 00:27:09,399 Speaker 1: vehicle should go into a bass title. If it doesn't, 508 00:27:09,400 --> 00:27:14,760 Speaker 1: we've got to figure out why. Okay, and the the 509 00:27:15,520 --> 00:27:18,720 Speaker 1: oxygen sensor, by the way, I unplugged it, since the 510 00:27:19,240 --> 00:27:21,760 Speaker 1: exhaust is completely rotted out, do you think they would 511 00:27:21,760 --> 00:27:23,640 Speaker 1: have anything to do with it? Oh? Sure, you gotta 512 00:27:23,680 --> 00:27:25,960 Speaker 1: have all the components have to be there. Pete, you're 513 00:27:25,960 --> 00:27:27,520 Speaker 1: gonna I'm mad. I'm sorry, you're gonna have to fix 514 00:27:27,560 --> 00:27:30,480 Speaker 1: all that. Though you can't fix some of it, you're 515 00:27:30,480 --> 00:27:33,800 Speaker 1: gonna have to fix all of it, right, all right, 516 00:27:34,119 --> 00:27:35,879 Speaker 1: I gotta go call me back next week. Let me 517 00:27:35,920 --> 00:27:38,200 Speaker 1: know how you make out. Take good care. I'm on 518 00:27:38,320 --> 00:28:03,680 Speaker 1: any of the card doctor back right, after this. Yeah, hey, 519 00:28:03,840 --> 00:28:05,640 Speaker 1: welcome back. We're on nading the car doctor. We're gonna 520 00:28:05,640 --> 00:28:07,480 Speaker 1: have a marathon here. Let's roll it along, Tom, What 521 00:28:07,560 --> 00:28:10,560 Speaker 1: do you got? Facebook Post of the Week. John Clemson writes, 522 00:28:10,680 --> 00:28:12,359 Speaker 1: I have a two thousand seven and Mustang with the 523 00:28:12,400 --> 00:28:14,879 Speaker 1: original battery. I bought a new Forward replacement battery, and 524 00:28:14,880 --> 00:28:16,800 Speaker 1: I'm wondering how to replace it. Do I remove the 525 00:28:16,880 --> 00:28:18,920 Speaker 1: old battery and install the new one like it would 526 00:28:18,960 --> 00:28:20,800 Speaker 1: do in like sixty six Mustang? Or do I need 527 00:28:20,880 --> 00:28:23,120 Speaker 1: to keep the car power and somehow? Good question? Yeah, 528 00:28:23,200 --> 00:28:25,520 Speaker 1: good question. You know, keeping the car power to be 529 00:28:25,560 --> 00:28:27,080 Speaker 1: a good option. And we do it in the shop 530 00:28:27,200 --> 00:28:29,359 Speaker 1: using a jump box going in through the O B 531 00:28:29,480 --> 00:28:31,560 Speaker 1: D two ports and we power everything up that way. 532 00:28:31,880 --> 00:28:34,240 Speaker 1: The cigarette lighter adapters that you see being sold in 533 00:28:34,240 --> 00:28:36,600 Speaker 1: the auto parts stores, I find don't really work, and 534 00:28:36,640 --> 00:28:38,640 Speaker 1: I find them in some cases to cause more harm 535 00:28:38,720 --> 00:28:40,600 Speaker 1: than good. So it would be nice if you can 536 00:28:40,680 --> 00:28:43,480 Speaker 1: keep the car power, John. If you can't, be aware, 537 00:28:43,520 --> 00:28:45,160 Speaker 1: you're gonna have to run it and relearn some of 538 00:28:45,200 --> 00:28:47,760 Speaker 1: the idle strategy. Fortunately for you, this is a two 539 00:28:47,840 --> 00:28:50,480 Speaker 1: thousand seven. If this is a later model Forward product 540 00:28:51,680 --> 00:28:53,720 Speaker 1: and above, some of the pickup trucks for example, and 541 00:28:53,800 --> 00:28:56,840 Speaker 1: some of the later years across the board, you now 542 00:28:56,960 --> 00:28:58,920 Speaker 1: have to register the battery. You have to use a 543 00:28:59,000 --> 00:29:02,360 Speaker 1: scan tool to tell the onboard computer the battery was replaced, 544 00:29:02,640 --> 00:29:06,360 Speaker 1: so it can adapt its charging strategy properly and charge 545 00:29:06,400 --> 00:29:10,000 Speaker 1: the battery at the correct specification. So, yes, change it 546 00:29:10,080 --> 00:29:11,960 Speaker 1: like you would on your sixty six mouth thing, with 547 00:29:12,080 --> 00:29:15,120 Speaker 1: the exception that you're gonna have to relearn the idle 548 00:29:15,160 --> 00:29:18,320 Speaker 1: strategy and possibly drive it down the road quote unquote 549 00:29:18,400 --> 00:29:21,840 Speaker 1: normal normal shifts to get it to operate by as 550 00:29:21,880 --> 00:29:23,640 Speaker 1: it's supposed to, and it we'll pick up its own 551 00:29:23,680 --> 00:29:25,920 Speaker 1: pattern from there on, but just be aware of it. 552 00:29:25,920 --> 00:29:28,080 Speaker 1: And by the way, if you're replacing the battery, hopefully 553 00:29:28,120 --> 00:29:31,080 Speaker 1: you're using something good, something with paraframe grid technology, like 554 00:29:31,160 --> 00:29:33,280 Speaker 1: the Car Doctor says, none better get out the paraframe 555 00:29:33,360 --> 00:29:35,200 Speaker 1: dot com. I want to throw that in. I figured, 556 00:29:35,200 --> 00:29:37,360 Speaker 1: why not. Let's go over and talk to James Trent 557 00:29:37,480 --> 00:29:40,080 Speaker 1: and Maine oh six Dodge ram half ton truck with 558 00:29:40,160 --> 00:29:42,320 Speaker 1: a hemmy missfire. James, welcome to the Car Doctor. What 559 00:29:42,400 --> 00:29:47,360 Speaker 1: do you got good? What's going on? Misfires when it's 560 00:29:47,440 --> 00:29:56,480 Speaker 1: called um every revolution of the motor Okay, Do you 561 00:29:56,520 --> 00:29:58,240 Speaker 1: want a vacuum Do you wanna Do you want a 562 00:29:58,320 --> 00:30:03,880 Speaker 1: vacuum gauge? James, Okay, you probably have a broken exhaust 563 00:30:03,960 --> 00:30:08,800 Speaker 1: valve spring on the driver's side, middle middle cylinder, very common. 564 00:30:09,160 --> 00:30:11,240 Speaker 1: Take a vacuum gauge. Put a vacuum gauge on it. 565 00:30:11,280 --> 00:30:14,320 Speaker 1: If the needles fluctuating when it's cold, when it's misfiring, 566 00:30:14,560 --> 00:30:16,720 Speaker 1: take a look at the valve train, broken valve spring, 567 00:30:16,840 --> 00:30:20,160 Speaker 1: broken rocker, uh, push rod issue. We see it all 568 00:30:20,200 --> 00:30:23,560 Speaker 1: the time, very big common problem on these particular engines. 569 00:30:23,840 --> 00:30:27,560 Speaker 1: This sounds like a mechanical misfire, not something that is 570 00:30:27,600 --> 00:30:29,680 Speaker 1: going to be solved by throwing spark plugs at it. 571 00:30:29,840 --> 00:30:31,520 Speaker 1: If you want to verify that and work your way 572 00:30:31,560 --> 00:30:34,400 Speaker 1: into it backwards, get a scan tool. Um, do you 573 00:30:34,520 --> 00:30:36,440 Speaker 1: happen to have a fault code. It's got a check 574 00:30:36,480 --> 00:30:41,360 Speaker 1: engine light on right? Yeah? Okay, So take the coil 575 00:30:41,440 --> 00:30:43,600 Speaker 1: for six, move it to a different cylinder, take the 576 00:30:43,640 --> 00:30:45,640 Speaker 1: plugs out and move them around. If it continues to 577 00:30:45,680 --> 00:30:49,360 Speaker 1: stay on six, then you know this is and it 578 00:30:49,480 --> 00:30:51,840 Speaker 1: stays on six and this is a mechanical issue. I 579 00:30:51,880 --> 00:30:53,840 Speaker 1: would I would look very hard and be prepared for 580 00:30:53,920 --> 00:30:57,000 Speaker 1: a broken valve spring. Not uncommon, not uncommon at all. 581 00:30:58,120 --> 00:31:01,479 Speaker 1: I took. I took the valve covers handed over right 582 00:31:02,720 --> 00:31:05,280 Speaker 1: all the way down. It looked like everything was moving correctly. 583 00:31:05,360 --> 00:31:08,440 Speaker 1: But I don't know. Yeah, that's that's that's not correct. 584 00:31:08,520 --> 00:31:10,160 Speaker 1: What I would go through next is I would do 585 00:31:10,200 --> 00:31:13,400 Speaker 1: a cylinder leakdown test, cranking the engine around and see 586 00:31:13,400 --> 00:31:15,080 Speaker 1: if I can hold pressure. And while it's doing that, 587 00:31:15,160 --> 00:31:16,960 Speaker 1: push down on each val spring, and you're gonna find 588 00:31:17,040 --> 00:31:21,920 Speaker 1: one that's collapsed or broken or giving you an issue. Awesome, 589 00:31:21,960 --> 00:31:26,320 Speaker 1: so val spring, let's bala spring valve train. Let's leave 590 00:31:26,360 --> 00:31:28,480 Speaker 1: it there, but you're probably gonna find a broken valel spring. 591 00:31:28,800 --> 00:31:30,560 Speaker 1: Call me back, tell me what I did. All right, 592 00:31:31,560 --> 00:31:33,400 Speaker 1: you're very welcome. You're very welcome. Let's get over to 593 00:31:33,480 --> 00:31:35,400 Speaker 1: Lenny Brooklyn, New York.

Yeah, I understand. I understand it was crazy, 610 00:32:31,120 --> 00:32:32,760 Speaker 1: some of the walked stories in the dealer ship, but 611 00:32:32,760 --> 00:32:35,480 Speaker 1: I'm believable. Listen, you call back. We'll talk about it 612 00:32:35,520 --> 00:32:37,680 Speaker 1: on aarin. We have more time. I appreciate stories like 613 00:32:37,840 --> 00:32:39,840 Speaker 1: this from the guys in the trenches. Letty you take 614 00:32:39,880 --> 00:32:41,720 Speaker 1: good care of morning.

Yeah, you one hand with the wind and 617 00:33:07,560 --> 00:33:15,800 Speaker 1: the stulf gangers in the hand. Hey, rondinding the car doctor. 618 00:33:15,880 --> 00:33:18,240 Speaker 1: We're saving the best for last this hour. Kurt Frederick 619 00:33:18,320 --> 00:33:21,840 Speaker 1: Mayne two thousand four Dodge Durango and some problems stuck 620 00:33:21,840 --> 00:33:23,720 Speaker 1: in four wheel drive. Kurt, that's okay if you want 621 00:33:23,720 --> 00:33:25,080 Speaker 1: to go up the ski slope all the time, but 622 00:33:25,160 --> 00:33:28,840 Speaker 1: probably bad news this time of year. What's going on? Ah? Well, 623 00:33:30,160 --> 00:33:32,240 Speaker 1: I was coming back from town the other day and 624 00:33:34,920 --> 00:33:40,280 Speaker 1: my service, my service full wheel drive, right, can you 625 00:33:40,360 --> 00:33:42,880 Speaker 1: hear me? Yeah? I can hear sure. Okay, and my 626 00:33:43,000 --> 00:33:46,760 Speaker 1: service full of drive light came on and now it's 627 00:33:46,760 --> 00:33:50,400 Speaker 1: stuck drive. So it wasn't two wheel drive and it 628 00:33:50,560 --> 00:33:54,600 Speaker 1: just shifted D all the time. Okay, but it it 629 00:33:55,480 --> 00:33:59,040 Speaker 1: just intermittently went into four wheel drive. Lights on and 630 00:33:59,680 --> 00:34:03,640 Speaker 1: it's duck now in four wheel drive. Okay, Um, did 631 00:34:03,720 --> 00:34:06,440 Speaker 1: you or do you have the ability to pull fault codes? 632 00:34:08,120 --> 00:34:13,520 Speaker 1: We got nothing to do with it. Every computer on 633 00:34:13,600 --> 00:34:16,360 Speaker 1: that do you know how many computers are on that car, Kurt? 634 00:34:17,880 --> 00:34:22,319 Speaker 1: Probably in the neighborhood of about thirty five. All right, 635 00:34:22,520 --> 00:34:25,640 Speaker 1: and every system see and and and that's a great comeback. 636 00:34:25,840 --> 00:34:28,759 Speaker 1: The check engine lights not on. The check engine light 637 00:34:28,960 --> 00:34:33,279 Speaker 1: has absolutely nothing to do with if there's fault codes 638 00:34:33,320 --> 00:34:35,400 Speaker 1: in the four wheel drive, if there's fault codes, and 639 00:34:35,440 --> 00:34:37,800 Speaker 1: the air conditioning, if there's fault codes in the my 640 00:34:38,320 --> 00:34:40,719 Speaker 1: within the anti fet But my point is, and I 641 00:34:40,840 --> 00:34:44,640 Speaker 1: think you get it. All diagnosis begins with a scan tool. 642 00:34:46,440 --> 00:34:49,880 Speaker 1: And and you know, one of the easiest things anybody 643 00:34:49,960 --> 00:34:52,880 Speaker 1: can do today, or any repair shop can do today, 644 00:34:53,480 --> 00:34:55,880 Speaker 1: any well equipped repair shop can do today.
