And you know, you're 18 00:01:00,240 --> 00:01:02,120 Speaker 2: trying to do what you're supposed to do and fix 19 00:01:02,240 --> 00:01:06,200 Speaker 2: cars and help people and stay educated, and then every 20 00:01:06,200 --> 00:01:09,360 Speaker 2: once in a while, something goofy comes up. Well, probably 21 00:01:09,400 --> 00:01:13,440 Speaker 2: every other day. For the past seven months, We've been 22 00:01:13,520 --> 00:01:16,280 Speaker 2: trying to find a shredder. And I'm not sure if 23 00:01:16,280 --> 00:01:19,039 Speaker 2: this story is even necessary, but I feel compelled to 24 00:01:19,120 --> 00:01:23,240 Speaker 2: tell it, all right, so tough, I'm taking advantage of 25 00:01:23,240 --> 00:01:24,680 Speaker 2: my names on the top of the show. 26 00:01:25,680 --> 00:01:27,360 Speaker 3: We need a shredder in the shop. We shred a 27 00:01:27,360 --> 00:01:27,840 Speaker 3: lot of paper. 28 00:01:27,880 --> 00:01:30,319 Speaker 2: We shred a lot of information, you know, customer information 29 00:01:30,360 --> 00:01:33,560 Speaker 2: that's no longer needed to work orders. You'd be amazed 30 00:01:33,600 --> 00:01:37,319 Speaker 2: how many vehicles we inspect for state inspection. And you know, 31 00:01:37,440 --> 00:01:40,080 Speaker 2: what is it with people collecting registrations going back to 32 00:01:40,120 --> 00:01:42,240 Speaker 2: the day they were born. I don't understand that. You 33 00:01:42,720 --> 00:01:45,200 Speaker 2: and there's you know, there's forty two registrations from the 34 00:01:45,240 --> 00:01:49,840 Speaker 2: last seventy five years, Like, you know, does that prove 35 00:01:49,880 --> 00:01:51,600 Speaker 2: to the police officer when you get pulled over he 36 00:01:51,680 --> 00:01:52,800 Speaker 2: have owned the car this long. 37 00:01:52,840 --> 00:01:54,080 Speaker 3: I don't know why we do that. 38 00:01:54,520 --> 00:01:57,520 Speaker 2: You know, if the registration's expired, throw it out. You 39 00:01:57,600 --> 00:02:01,279 Speaker 2: don't need to keep it, trust me. So we shred 40 00:02:01,320 --> 00:02:05,160 Speaker 2: a lot somewhere in the last two years. It seems 41 00:02:05,200 --> 00:02:07,200 Speaker 2: like the last two years we've gotten to be a 42 00:02:07,400 --> 00:02:12,320 Speaker 2: very safety conscious, litigious society. And I know it's gotten 43 00:02:12,360 --> 00:02:14,120 Speaker 2: bad in the last twenty years, but the last two 44 00:02:14,160 --> 00:02:17,800 Speaker 2: seem to have escalated and taken off. I've gotten notes 45 00:02:17,960 --> 00:02:19,880 Speaker 2: when I've purchased shredders and I'm just looking for a 46 00:02:19,919 --> 00:02:22,600 Speaker 2: simple shredder that I can, you know, put underneath the counter. 47 00:02:23,040 --> 00:02:24,640 Speaker 2: And when I've dropped the piece of paper in, its 48 00:02:24,639 --> 00:02:27,040 Speaker 2: shreds automatically and that's it. It does it all by itself, 49 00:02:27,080 --> 00:02:27,920 Speaker 2: so I don't have to turn it on. 50 00:02:27,960 --> 00:02:32,080 Speaker 3: It's shredded. We're done. Why is it that we have 51 00:02:32,160 --> 00:02:34,880 Speaker 3: to have notes and stickers all over the place that 52 00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:37,240 Speaker 3: first of all, say don't put your hand in the shredder, 53 00:02:37,840 --> 00:02:41,080 Speaker 3: because you know, really, are we that stupid that we 54 00:02:41,200 --> 00:02:43,040 Speaker 3: you know, I'm thinking to myself, if you're that stupid 55 00:02:43,080 --> 00:02:44,440 Speaker 3: that you want to stick your hand in the shredder, 56 00:02:44,440 --> 00:02:45,840 Speaker 3: you probably can't get it out of the box and 57 00:02:45,840 --> 00:02:47,880 Speaker 3: plug it into the wall. But what do I know? 58 00:02:48,280 --> 00:02:51,040 Speaker 2: Right, we went through two shredders, and I think I 59 00:02:51,080 --> 00:02:52,800 Speaker 2: told you this story last week, So I'm sorry if 60 00:02:52,800 --> 00:02:56,640 Speaker 2: I'm being repetitive, but I have a point here, and 61 00:02:56,880 --> 00:02:59,959 Speaker 2: you know, we finally found a very simple, basic shredder 62 00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:03,960 Speaker 2: or I'll i Amazon that you know it works. Well, 63 00:03:04,080 --> 00:03:06,919 Speaker 2: I'm happy to report we've spent a great week shredding. 64 00:03:07,600 --> 00:03:08,040 Speaker 3: All right. 65 00:03:09,600 --> 00:03:12,600 Speaker 2: It's funny because I noticed it this week. You don't 66 00:03:12,960 --> 00:03:18,720 Speaker 2: notice the distractions until they become one and you look 67 00:03:18,760 --> 00:03:21,320 Speaker 2: at how it slows down the shop because you know 68 00:03:21,360 --> 00:03:24,680 Speaker 2: you're trying to dedicate your mind to this, but you're 69 00:03:24,720 --> 00:03:26,880 Speaker 2: still thinking about the stupidity of that. 70 00:03:28,400 --> 00:03:30,600 Speaker 3: It happens a lot when you're working on cars. 71 00:03:30,639 --> 00:03:34,480 Speaker 2: Probably the hardest thing I think to do working in 72 00:03:34,520 --> 00:03:37,320 Speaker 2: a repair shop, never mind running a repair shop, because 73 00:03:37,320 --> 00:03:39,960 Speaker 2: I sort of wear two hats, is I can't think 74 00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:42,440 Speaker 2: about the problem that I was working on yesterday while 75 00:03:42,440 --> 00:03:43,920 Speaker 2: I'm trying to fix the one that's in front of 76 00:03:43,920 --> 00:03:46,240 Speaker 2: me today, even though the one from yesterday, you know, 77 00:03:46,280 --> 00:03:47,680 Speaker 2: I kind of put off to the side while I'm 78 00:03:47,680 --> 00:03:50,000 Speaker 2: thinking about it, and I'm trying not to think about 79 00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:55,240 Speaker 2: two things at once, because it's it's difficult. Somebody was 80 00:03:55,240 --> 00:03:57,920 Speaker 2: saying the other day that they're using artificial intelligence to 81 00:03:57,960 --> 00:04:02,040 Speaker 2: fix cars, and you know the concern is, you know, 82 00:04:02,080 --> 00:04:04,560 Speaker 2: will it ever actually replace mechanics. 83 00:04:06,040 --> 00:04:06,680 Speaker 3: I don't think so. 84 00:04:07,080 --> 00:04:11,160 Speaker 2: I've tried artificial intelligence, and usually I get pretty much 85 00:04:11,920 --> 00:04:14,240 Speaker 2: the generic answer. It could be the red wire, it 86 00:04:14,240 --> 00:04:16,080 Speaker 2: could be the green wire. It could be the purple wire. 87 00:04:16,320 --> 00:04:17,919 Speaker 2: You'd have to test and measure and do all the 88 00:04:17,920 --> 00:04:20,840 Speaker 2: things that I would normally do. Anyway, it doesn't give 89 00:04:20,880 --> 00:04:25,000 Speaker 2: me a definitive you know. It's G five oh one 90 00:04:25,040 --> 00:04:26,919 Speaker 2: the ground located at the back of the left cylinder 91 00:04:26,960 --> 00:04:29,920 Speaker 2: head on certain model year cars, but non existent after 92 00:04:29,960 --> 00:04:30,880 Speaker 2: model year twenty ten. 93 00:04:31,240 --> 00:04:34,560 Speaker 3: It's nothing like that, and it makes me. 94 00:04:34,640 --> 00:04:37,640 Speaker 2: Think that we need to do more for the mechanics 95 00:04:37,640 --> 00:04:40,880 Speaker 2: of today and the future and recognize what it is 96 00:04:40,920 --> 00:04:46,000 Speaker 2: that they go through on a daily basis. There isn't 97 00:04:46,040 --> 00:04:49,680 Speaker 2: a repair shop in America. Here's a bold prediction. There 98 00:04:49,720 --> 00:04:53,880 Speaker 2: isn't a repair shop or machine shop or parts house 99 00:04:54,360 --> 00:04:57,039 Speaker 2: in America that you can't go into and get a 100 00:04:57,080 --> 00:04:58,520 Speaker 2: great story. 101 00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:00,000 Speaker 3: It's incredible. 102 00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:04,120 Speaker 2: Well what goes on each and every day. We had 103 00:05:04,120 --> 00:05:09,080 Speaker 2: a customer call this week. You'll love this. They they're 104 00:05:09,120 --> 00:05:13,320 Speaker 2: moving to Delaware and there's an O three Honda Civic 105 00:05:13,360 --> 00:05:18,400 Speaker 2: in the family and the wife is afraid to drive 106 00:05:18,400 --> 00:05:21,800 Speaker 2: on the highway. And I get that, I understand trauma, right, 107 00:05:23,200 --> 00:05:26,599 Speaker 2: but she's afraid to drive on the highway. So instead 108 00:05:26,600 --> 00:05:29,479 Speaker 2: of driving it to Delaware, they're going to transport it. 109 00:05:29,520 --> 00:05:32,000 Speaker 2: But they can't find anybody to transport it for a 110 00:05:32,040 --> 00:05:34,000 Speaker 2: reasonable amount of money. So they're trying to come up 111 00:05:34,040 --> 00:05:37,600 Speaker 2: with other ways to do this. Now, you know, in 112 00:05:37,640 --> 00:05:41,240 Speaker 2: my mind, in my mind, I'm thinking, spend the three 113 00:05:41,240 --> 00:05:43,560 Speaker 2: to five hundred dollars, transport the car to Delaware and 114 00:05:43,640 --> 00:05:45,760 Speaker 2: be over and done with. Because even if you don't 115 00:05:45,760 --> 00:05:47,440 Speaker 2: have the money, there's just no other way to do 116 00:05:47,480 --> 00:05:49,360 Speaker 2: it to be safe unless you have somebody else drive 117 00:05:49,400 --> 00:05:53,120 Speaker 2: the car, which the car would make Delaware. So the 118 00:05:53,160 --> 00:05:56,359 Speaker 2: idea they came up with was, Hey, Ron, do you 119 00:05:56,400 --> 00:05:59,479 Speaker 2: know of a way we can disable the car? Because 120 00:05:59,480 --> 00:06:02,039 Speaker 2: we have trip Platinum. And I'm thinking, God, I don't 121 00:06:02,080 --> 00:06:04,400 Speaker 2: like where this is going. We want to get the 122 00:06:04,440 --> 00:06:09,440 Speaker 2: car towed from New Jersey to Delaware and we'll get 123 00:06:09,480 --> 00:06:11,880 Speaker 2: it done for free because we have triple A platinum. 124 00:06:11,920 --> 00:06:14,680 Speaker 2: And I'm saying to myself and I said to them, 125 00:06:14,720 --> 00:06:16,680 Speaker 2: but where are you going to drop it off? You know, 126 00:06:17,640 --> 00:06:20,200 Speaker 2: Delaware is three hundred and twenty five miles away. They 127 00:06:20,200 --> 00:06:22,680 Speaker 2: only tell you two hundred miles, so unless you're willing 128 00:06:22,720 --> 00:06:25,280 Speaker 2: to pay one hundred and twenty five mile fee, which 129 00:06:25,320 --> 00:06:28,200 Speaker 2: could be three to five dollars a mile, Like, where's 130 00:06:28,240 --> 00:06:30,600 Speaker 2: the insanity? And you're going to commit fraud on top 131 00:06:30,640 --> 00:06:32,960 Speaker 2: of it. And then I'm saying to myself, I wonder 132 00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:35,120 Speaker 2: if this is interstate fraud? You know, is this a 133 00:06:35,160 --> 00:06:38,159 Speaker 2: federal offense? You know, you start to wonder about these things. 134 00:06:39,640 --> 00:06:42,360 Speaker 2: My answer was, listen, instead of doing that, why don't 135 00:06:42,360 --> 00:06:44,000 Speaker 2: you spend three hundred dollars to get it flat toted 136 00:06:44,040 --> 00:06:45,679 Speaker 2: and get your wife some therapy with the two hundred 137 00:06:45,680 --> 00:06:50,320 Speaker 2: dollars difference, Like you know, and this is real. This 138 00:06:50,360 --> 00:06:52,440 Speaker 2: is what goes through a repair shop, and you just 139 00:06:53,720 --> 00:06:58,760 Speaker 2: you just got a wonder, right, So, you know, sometimes 140 00:06:58,760 --> 00:07:03,880 Speaker 2: picking a shredder is a whole lot easier than fixing cars, 141 00:07:04,360 --> 00:07:06,599 Speaker 2: but it's definitely easier than dealing with some of the 142 00:07:06,640 --> 00:07:07,600 Speaker 2: questions that come up. 143 00:07:07,640 --> 00:07:08,120 Speaker 3: And I just. 144 00:07:10,040 --> 00:07:13,080 Speaker 2: That's my story for the today that's the opening to 145 00:07:13,080 --> 00:07:15,640 Speaker 2: today's show. I just felt compelled to tell that story. 146 00:07:15,960 --> 00:07:18,800 Speaker 2: Don't commit fraud, be a good human, do the right thing, 147 00:07:19,640 --> 00:07:21,240 Speaker 2: and just just. 148 00:07:21,240 --> 00:07:25,200 Speaker 3: Do it right. It's not hard. Real quick, let's start 149 00:07:25,200 --> 00:07:26,800 Speaker 3: with Jeff. We're not going to stay here long. We're 150 00:07:26,800 --> 00:07:27,560 Speaker 3: going to pull over, but. 151 00:07:27,520 --> 00:07:30,760 Speaker 2: We'll at least get his call going Jeff from Michigan. Yes, sir, 152 00:07:30,760 --> 00:07:32,440 Speaker 2: how can I help welcome aboard. 153 00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:36,480 Speaker 4: Good morning, so privileged. So my brand new Grand Cherokee 154 00:07:36,520 --> 00:07:40,040 Speaker 4: and two thousand and three to keep forever, and here 155 00:07:40,080 --> 00:07:42,600 Speaker 4: we are forever. It's the four point seven V eight 156 00:07:43,480 --> 00:07:44,800 Speaker 4: with the standard engine. 157 00:07:44,600 --> 00:07:49,280 Speaker 2: And Mercedes the Mercedes motor when Mercedes on Chrysler. 158 00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:52,880 Speaker 4: Now, I've had every Grand Cherokee problem over the history 159 00:07:52,880 --> 00:07:55,480 Speaker 4: of owning this. But I don't think it's a bad car, 160 00:07:55,520 --> 00:07:57,400 Speaker 4: and I would do it again. But I've had a 161 00:07:57,440 --> 00:08:01,160 Speaker 4: lot of Grand Cherokee problems, you know. Yeah, I even 162 00:08:01,200 --> 00:08:05,280 Speaker 4: fixed the blend doors myself without taking the dashdown. So 163 00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:09,120 Speaker 4: it's got its indulicacies or idiosyncrasy. 164 00:08:09,400 --> 00:08:12,040 Speaker 2: They all have their quirks, Jeff. You know cars, I 165 00:08:12,040 --> 00:08:15,000 Speaker 2: always say cars are like people. They all have their quirks. 166 00:08:15,000 --> 00:08:16,400 Speaker 2: You just got to find the quirks you can get 167 00:08:16,400 --> 00:08:18,400 Speaker 2: along with to hang out with them. And that's what 168 00:08:18,640 --> 00:08:19,720 Speaker 2: that's the reality of it. 169 00:08:19,800 --> 00:08:22,840 Speaker 4: So yeah, and I'm a contractor and I miss your handyman. 170 00:08:22,880 --> 00:08:25,880 Speaker 4: I need we need more handy man, Steve stories. So 171 00:08:25,960 --> 00:08:27,960 Speaker 4: I told a trailer and you know the V eight 172 00:08:28,000 --> 00:08:31,520 Speaker 4: and all that it really does everything well, and it 173 00:08:31,560 --> 00:08:33,960 Speaker 4: does jeep trails and everything. And I wouldn't I wouldn't 174 00:08:33,960 --> 00:08:35,960 Speaker 4: trade it, but I just wish I could get on 175 00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:38,600 Speaker 4: top of it. And the moral of the story, I'm 176 00:08:38,600 --> 00:08:40,360 Speaker 4: going to be asking you for as you always talk 177 00:08:40,400 --> 00:08:44,400 Speaker 4: about year, make model, and I'm trying to find a 178 00:08:44,440 --> 00:08:47,720 Speaker 4: code analyzer like that. I don't know what to look for, 179 00:08:48,160 --> 00:08:51,240 Speaker 4: but I have a little pocket ectron, a little size 180 00:08:51,240 --> 00:08:53,000 Speaker 4: of a tennis ball thing that I'm able to read 181 00:08:53,040 --> 00:08:57,120 Speaker 4: my codes and reset them. So with a twenty three 182 00:08:57,160 --> 00:08:58,920 Speaker 4: year old vehicle, I know time is going to be 183 00:08:58,960 --> 00:09:01,880 Speaker 4: a restraint. There is a lot of history, but I've 184 00:09:01,880 --> 00:09:06,280 Speaker 4: always had ongoing two sensor and two heater codes and 185 00:09:06,559 --> 00:09:09,880 Speaker 4: small evapp leaks. And I know what the two sensor 186 00:09:09,920 --> 00:09:12,800 Speaker 4: problems are. The wires were kind of close to the 187 00:09:12,840 --> 00:09:16,360 Speaker 4: engine block and they burned, so I pulled them apart 188 00:09:16,520 --> 00:09:20,480 Speaker 4: and I re insulated them with heat shrink tube, tried 189 00:09:20,520 --> 00:09:24,560 Speaker 4: to separate them and all that. That's been the ongoing problem. Well, 190 00:09:24,600 --> 00:09:27,319 Speaker 4: as you know now, I've got a longer list that 191 00:09:27,440 --> 00:09:30,000 Speaker 4: it keeps adding. So those are my small problems that 192 00:09:30,120 --> 00:09:32,839 Speaker 4: I really could never you know, the evapp was, you know, 193 00:09:32,880 --> 00:09:35,480 Speaker 4: who's going to do the smoke test and all that, 194 00:09:35,679 --> 00:09:38,480 Speaker 4: So I would just reset the codes and kind of 195 00:09:38,520 --> 00:09:41,600 Speaker 4: go through life but now I've got some more complicated codes, 196 00:09:41,960 --> 00:09:45,079 Speaker 4: and I've got a misfire which I have a coil 197 00:09:45,400 --> 00:09:51,199 Speaker 4: in the trunk from uh what's it called? Whoever E 198 00:09:52,360 --> 00:09:55,800 Speaker 4: E KG whatever you know, whenever I bought a coil pack. 199 00:09:56,160 --> 00:09:59,600 Speaker 4: So your question to me is what, okay, do I 200 00:09:59,640 --> 00:10:02,040 Speaker 4: have a mode on that? Because I usually do three 201 00:10:02,080 --> 00:10:06,560 Speaker 4: thousand mile oil changes all through its life, and now 202 00:10:06,600 --> 00:10:09,720 Speaker 4: I'm over because we had slow storms and bombs and. 203 00:10:10,160 --> 00:10:14,160 Speaker 3: Limp a limp mode with regard with regard to what, Jeff. 204 00:10:14,559 --> 00:10:17,360 Speaker 4: Well, I have a misfire. I have a rough idle 205 00:10:17,440 --> 00:10:19,960 Speaker 4: and I have hard starting now, but that's because I 206 00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:21,960 Speaker 4: think I have a misfire on number seven. 207 00:10:23,679 --> 00:10:25,880 Speaker 2: Well, yeah, if you've got if you've got a misfire, 208 00:10:25,880 --> 00:10:28,679 Speaker 2: it's gonna affect overall engine operation. And I'll tell you 209 00:10:28,679 --> 00:10:30,920 Speaker 2: what now, stay put, let me pull over, take this poise. 210 00:10:30,960 --> 00:10:32,760 Speaker 2: When we come back, we'll finish up.

You know, 253 00:12:34,679 --> 00:12:37,120 Speaker 2: if we've got a scan tool, it'll show us misfires. 254 00:12:37,200 --> 00:12:41,040 Speaker 2: Now Chrysler early Chryslers and misfires didn't get along.

If the 286 00:14:05,120 --> 00:14:07,720 Speaker 2: misfire follows the coil, it's a coil. If the misfire 287 00:14:07,800 --> 00:14:11,960 Speaker 2: follows the plug, it's the plug, right right, And you 288 00:14:12,000 --> 00:14:16,360 Speaker 2: know that's step one, step two.

It only takes one moment 338 00:16:15,160 --> 00:16:17,080 Speaker 2: and the road downhill is paved with ice, and then 339 00:16:17,120 --> 00:16:19,720 Speaker 2: all of a sudden, it's all over, you know either 340 00:16:20,920 --> 00:16:22,920 Speaker 2: And I'm not saying that I have to do that. 341 00:16:23,280 --> 00:16:25,240 Speaker 2: It's just that, you know, I don't have a relationship 342 00:16:25,280 --> 00:16:27,800 Speaker 2: with a shop for obvious reasons. So if you've got 343 00:16:27,800 --> 00:16:30,280 Speaker 2: a relationship with the dealership that you bought the car from, 344 00:16:30,280 --> 00:16:31,720 Speaker 2: and you trust them, and you know the guys, and 345 00:16:31,720 --> 00:16:34,360 Speaker 2: they're going to do a good job, you know, by 346 00:16:34,360 --> 00:16:35,480 Speaker 2: all means, let them. 347 00:16:35,560 --> 00:16:38,040 Speaker 3: But I would, well, I want to do it early. 348 00:16:38,480 --> 00:16:40,920 Speaker 8: I want to do it early, man, And I have 349 00:16:41,000 --> 00:16:43,320 Speaker 8: a trusted guy that you know, he's not a quick glube. 350 00:16:43,320 --> 00:16:46,040 Speaker 8: I got a guy that maybe after I might not 351 00:16:46,080 --> 00:16:49,040 Speaker 8: even take the two free oil changes. But that actually 352 00:16:49,080 --> 00:16:51,000 Speaker 8: leads me to my next question. After the break in, 353 00:16:52,000 --> 00:16:53,720 Speaker 8: would you go with like a mobile one or an 354 00:16:53,760 --> 00:16:57,640 Speaker 8: An's oil or just Honda synthetic on that type of car. 355 00:16:57,680 --> 00:16:59,120 Speaker 8: I mean it reds Outs iventy two. 356 00:17:00,640 --> 00:17:04,520 Speaker 2: I think the issue is going to be getting Honda 357 00:17:04,600 --> 00:17:07,800 Speaker 2: spec well, Honda direct oil right from the Honda dealer. 358 00:17:08,359 --> 00:17:10,920 Speaker 2: Somebody's making it for Honda. I would find out who 359 00:17:10,920 --> 00:17:14,280 Speaker 2: that is. Do I do that? No? I pour Mobile 360 00:17:14,280 --> 00:17:16,400 Speaker 2: one at the shop all day long. I poured AMZ 361 00:17:16,440 --> 00:17:18,760 Speaker 2: oil for people all day long, because I've come to 362 00:17:18,800 --> 00:17:22,119 Speaker 2: the conclusion that motor oils are kind of like who's 363 00:17:22,119 --> 00:17:24,880 Speaker 2: got the best pizza in town. It's all pizza. As 364 00:17:24,880 --> 00:17:26,800 Speaker 2: long as it doesn't give you indigestion and the meat 365 00:17:26,800 --> 00:17:29,320 Speaker 2: balls are made just right, I'm good right, as long 366 00:17:29,359 --> 00:17:33,439 Speaker 2: as it meets speck, all right, that's what I'm chasing, obviously. 367 00:17:33,800 --> 00:17:37,359 Speaker 2: Obviously I want a Honda filter on that car, all right, 368 00:17:37,640 --> 00:17:40,879 Speaker 2: at least for the warranty period and whatever they call for. 369 00:17:40,960 --> 00:17:44,000 Speaker 2: As far as mileage for fluids and how long and 370 00:17:44,040 --> 00:17:46,800 Speaker 2: how few in between, I'm gonna make it shorter.

This is sixteen years ago now, and 487 00:23:23,720 --> 00:23:26,479 Speaker 2: it sat through its first winter, and I thought I 488 00:23:26,560 --> 00:23:27,320 Speaker 2: was doing such. 489 00:23:27,160 --> 00:23:27,879 Speaker 3: A great job. 490 00:23:27,920 --> 00:23:29,720 Speaker 2: I kept it in the shop up on the lift, 491 00:23:29,720 --> 00:23:32,679 Speaker 2: wrapped up like you know, like like nobody could get 492 00:23:32,720 --> 00:23:34,919 Speaker 2: to it, and just under my watchful eye because I 493 00:23:34,960 --> 00:23:37,040 Speaker 2: was still doing some nip and tuck. I had taken 494 00:23:37,040 --> 00:23:40,359 Speaker 2: it out for the first season, and I wanted to 495 00:23:40,359 --> 00:23:42,760 Speaker 2: look at something under the valve train, under the valve 496 00:23:42,800 --> 00:23:46,399 Speaker 2: cover first that first year of storage, pulled the driver's 497 00:23:46,400 --> 00:23:49,760 Speaker 2: side valve cover off. Now here's an engine that had 498 00:23:49,800 --> 00:23:53,760 Speaker 2: about eleven hundred maybe twelve hundred miles that first season. 499 00:23:55,000 --> 00:23:58,840 Speaker 2: You had to see the globs of water that had 500 00:23:58,880 --> 00:24:03,760 Speaker 2: collected from conde from sitting in what I consider environmentally 501 00:24:03,840 --> 00:24:06,520 Speaker 2: sound environment, right the shop. 502 00:24:06,560 --> 00:24:08,679 Speaker 3: I would leave the heat on at night, you know 503 00:24:08,720 --> 00:24:10,199 Speaker 3: it just or I wouldn't let it. I wouldn't. 504 00:24:10,200 --> 00:24:11,919 Speaker 2: I just wouldn't let it get cold. I you know, 505 00:24:12,000 --> 00:24:13,960 Speaker 2: turn the heat down to sixty whatever. But during the 506 00:24:14,000 --> 00:24:16,720 Speaker 2: day it was sixty eight seventy degrees, were working and 507 00:24:17,800 --> 00:24:21,080 Speaker 2: moisture had permeated into the engine. I changed the oil, 508 00:24:21,119 --> 00:24:23,760 Speaker 2: I ran it, got it hot, did another oil change. 509 00:24:24,080 --> 00:24:28,600 Speaker 2: So time counts, right, if I had gone that mileage 510 00:24:28,640 --> 00:24:31,440 Speaker 2: or waited till the mileage, I don't imagine. I can't 511 00:24:31,480 --> 00:24:34,600 Speaker 2: imagine where I would be now. But I think the 512 00:24:34,640 --> 00:24:37,000 Speaker 2: most critical thing is what's on the back of that bottle. 513 00:24:37,720 --> 00:24:40,760 Speaker 2: I challenge everybody the next time you're in the supermarket. 514 00:24:40,760 --> 00:24:42,520 Speaker 2: This seems to be the easiest place because we all 515 00:24:42,520 --> 00:24:44,840 Speaker 2: seem to eat. And the next time you go down 516 00:24:44,880 --> 00:24:48,360 Speaker 2: the automotibile, start turning oil bottles around and reading them 517 00:24:48,400 --> 00:24:50,679 Speaker 2: and look at what they actually say. And some of 518 00:24:50,720 --> 00:24:54,240 Speaker 2: them will say rated for Ford, rated for Toyota, rated for. 519 00:24:54,280 --> 00:24:58,760 Speaker 3: GM and so on. That's that's the key, all right, 520 00:24:59,680 --> 00:25:00,440 Speaker 3: that's the key. 521 00:25:02,000 --> 00:25:04,320 Speaker 5: Okay, thank you for all that information. 522 00:25:04,480 --> 00:25:06,960 Speaker 3: You're welcome. John, You're welcome. Joe, you'd be well. Take 523 00:25:07,000 --> 00:25:08,600 Speaker 3: good care. Brian up in Maine. 524 00:25:09,080 --> 00:25:11,800 Speaker 2: Let's start with you and then we'll come back and 525 00:25:11,800 --> 00:25:12,920 Speaker 2: finish up on the other side. 526 00:25:12,960 --> 00:25:15,000 Speaker 3: Brian, what's going on? How can I help? Hi? 527 00:25:15,119 --> 00:25:16,800 Speaker 7: Ron, Thanks for taking my call. 528 00:25:17,000 --> 00:25:17,520 Speaker 3: You're welcome. 529 00:25:18,080 --> 00:25:24,280 Speaker 7: I'm wrestling with a twenty eleven Ford Fusion. It's got everything. 530 00:25:24,400 --> 00:25:28,400 Speaker 7: It's got the anti theftis's got a remote start, it's 531 00:25:28,480 --> 00:25:33,680 Speaker 7: got the sink thing, it's got blue tooth, and I've 532 00:25:33,720 --> 00:25:38,520 Speaker 7: got a five and a half amp draw on this car. 533 00:25:39,240 --> 00:25:43,320 Speaker 7: And we bought it. It's only got sixty thousand miles 534 00:25:43,320 --> 00:25:47,080 Speaker 7: on it. We bought it right off somebody who bought 535 00:25:47,119 --> 00:25:50,040 Speaker 7: it off a lot. They didn't have it for long. 536 00:25:50,280 --> 00:25:53,919 Speaker 7: We've had it since twenty fifteen. And all of a sudden, 537 00:25:53,960 --> 00:25:56,520 Speaker 7: out of the blue, I've got this five and a 538 00:25:56,600 --> 00:26:02,679 Speaker 7: half amp draw coming on in this car. And I 539 00:26:02,760 --> 00:26:05,680 Speaker 7: get under there twisted to get into the pull in 540 00:26:05,800 --> 00:26:09,000 Speaker 7: fuses and do the parasit draw test. I put, I 541 00:26:09,160 --> 00:26:09,959 Speaker 7: put a one on them? 542 00:26:10,160 --> 00:26:10,320 Speaker 4: Ten? 543 00:26:10,440 --> 00:26:16,760 Speaker 7: What resistor wire between my negative battery? Poll? Once I 544 00:26:16,840 --> 00:26:21,239 Speaker 7: took the negative side off, put that between, you know, 545 00:26:21,720 --> 00:26:24,359 Speaker 7: and so I wouldn't fry my I was afraid of 546 00:26:24,400 --> 00:26:26,320 Speaker 7: frying my meter because what. 547 00:26:26,480 --> 00:26:29,439 Speaker 3: Kind of well at time? What kind of meter are 548 00:26:29,440 --> 00:26:30,119 Speaker 3: you using? Brian? 549 00:26:31,000 --> 00:26:35,639 Speaker 7: Well, it's in in anova. It's got a fifteen amp 550 00:26:35,720 --> 00:26:42,200 Speaker 7: and non fuse spot on it. So I just so anyways, 551 00:26:42,240 --> 00:26:44,439 Speaker 7: I did a vote, but it's a five and a 552 00:26:44,480 --> 00:26:46,680 Speaker 7: half I think it's a five and a half amp 553 00:26:46,800 --> 00:26:49,480 Speaker 7: draw that this car, and I think it's part of 554 00:26:49,520 --> 00:26:50,159 Speaker 7: this sink. 555 00:26:50,760 --> 00:26:53,040 Speaker 2: How are you time time out? How are you how 556 00:26:53,080 --> 00:26:55,040 Speaker 2: are you finding this five and a half am draw? 557 00:26:55,119 --> 00:26:56,280 Speaker 2: How are you hooking up your meter? 558 00:26:57,960 --> 00:27:02,399 Speaker 7: Well? To save the wife's card the battery, I I 559 00:27:02,520 --> 00:27:08,159 Speaker 7: put a spin on shut off on the negative terminal. 560 00:27:08,320 --> 00:27:10,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, that doesn't matter to me. By saying, how 561 00:27:10,600 --> 00:27:13,000 Speaker 2: are you physically attaching your meter to the vehicle? 562 00:27:14,480 --> 00:27:18,280 Speaker 7: Oh well, I put I put that, Like I say, 563 00:27:18,960 --> 00:27:21,000 Speaker 7: why with that? Alligated clips? 564 00:27:21,040 --> 00:27:21,280 Speaker 4: With that? 565 00:27:21,520 --> 00:27:26,639 Speaker 7: With that one own? Ten? What resist in between the 566 00:27:26,720 --> 00:27:30,600 Speaker 7: negative tournamal is taken off? The battery in the negative 567 00:27:30,800 --> 00:27:35,720 Speaker 7: stud on the battery and then I put my leads 568 00:27:35,840 --> 00:27:40,480 Speaker 7: on each side of that resist on each side, and 569 00:27:40,520 --> 00:27:41,760 Speaker 7: I do a volte test. 570 00:27:41,960 --> 00:27:44,000 Speaker 3: Okay, do this. Let's let's let's do this. 571 00:27:44,040 --> 00:27:45,959 Speaker 2: I'll tell you what. Stay put, let me pull over. 572 00:27:46,000 --> 00:27:47,440 Speaker 2: Take this pause. When we come back, we're going to 573 00:27:47,520 --> 00:27:48,160 Speaker 2: reinvent the wheel. 574 00:27:48,200 --> 00:27:48,320 Speaker 7: Here. 575 00:27:48,320 --> 00:28:05,399 Speaker 3: I'm run ending in the car. Doctor, don't go away. Okay, Brian, 576 00:28:05,480 --> 00:28:05,920 Speaker 3: you're there. 577 00:28:06,720 --> 00:28:07,960 Speaker 7: Yes, here's here's what. 578 00:28:08,119 --> 00:28:09,439 Speaker 3: Here's what I want you to do, kiddo. 579 00:28:09,600 --> 00:28:12,719 Speaker 2: All right, all right, let's let's talk about how we're 580 00:28:12,760 --> 00:28:15,440 Speaker 2: going to test the circuit. I want you to set 581 00:28:15,480 --> 00:28:19,919 Speaker 2: your meter to ambriage right, and I want you to 582 00:28:19,960 --> 00:28:23,880 Speaker 2: be in series, meaning negative negative side to the battery 583 00:28:23,920 --> 00:28:28,320 Speaker 2: post positive side to the cable right. And if you're 584 00:28:28,359 --> 00:28:30,840 Speaker 2: worried about the meter not having a fuse in it, 585 00:28:30,840 --> 00:28:33,160 Speaker 2: which I find odd, but okay. 586 00:28:32,880 --> 00:28:37,000 Speaker 7: I'll use it's an un it's in it's well, yeah, 587 00:28:37,040 --> 00:28:40,560 Speaker 7: it's got an unfused fifteen amp. That's where I get 588 00:28:40,560 --> 00:28:43,880 Speaker 7: to put it on the fifteen amp. And it's unfused. 589 00:28:44,600 --> 00:28:48,040 Speaker 2: Right, So if it's if the meter is unfused, why 590 00:28:48,080 --> 00:28:50,640 Speaker 2: can't we just put an inline fuse holder. 591 00:28:50,280 --> 00:28:51,080 Speaker 3: With a fuse in it? 592 00:28:52,400 --> 00:28:52,920 Speaker 7: Okay? 593 00:28:53,320 --> 00:28:53,600 Speaker 3: Right? 594 00:28:53,960 --> 00:28:56,320 Speaker 2: I mean if we if you're worried about it. If 595 00:28:56,400 --> 00:28:59,160 Speaker 2: that circuit in the meter is rated for fifteen amps, 596 00:28:59,480 --> 00:29:02,920 Speaker 2: let's put a fifteen am fuse in a holder. All right, 597 00:29:03,320 --> 00:29:05,000 Speaker 2: Let's put a ten am fuse in a holder. 598 00:29:05,120 --> 00:29:06,200 Speaker 3: Let's let's leave me. 599 00:29:06,600 --> 00:29:08,560 Speaker 7: I think I've got five and a half. I think 600 00:29:08,560 --> 00:29:10,400 Speaker 7: I got five and a half amps of draw. 601 00:29:10,600 --> 00:29:11,680 Speaker 3: Well wait, now, wait a minute. 602 00:29:11,680 --> 00:29:14,560 Speaker 2: You'read, you're you're ahead of me, brother, Hang on, all right, 603 00:29:14,720 --> 00:29:17,080 Speaker 2: But first I want to get rid of this this 604 00:29:17,080 --> 00:29:20,120 Speaker 2: this resistor that you're using. I don't want to reinvent 605 00:29:20,160 --> 00:29:23,120 Speaker 2: Olm's law here, all right, So I want the meter 606 00:29:23,200 --> 00:29:24,760 Speaker 2: hooked up. You want to put a fuse in line? 607 00:29:24,760 --> 00:29:25,760 Speaker 2: Put a fuse in line. 608 00:29:26,280 --> 00:29:30,560 Speaker 3: Next? How long are you waiting before you measure your draw? 609 00:29:31,960 --> 00:29:35,240 Speaker 7: Oh? I waited like an hour, trying to look out 610 00:29:35,240 --> 00:29:37,800 Speaker 7: of sleep. But this is the other thing. This forward 611 00:29:37,880 --> 00:29:41,560 Speaker 7: fusion is an S and it's fully loaded all of 612 00:29:41,600 --> 00:29:42,680 Speaker 7: these electronics. 613 00:29:42,720 --> 00:29:44,600 Speaker 3: Good, so's every other car on the road today. How 614 00:29:44,640 --> 00:29:46,120 Speaker 3: long are you waiting? Sixty minutes? 615 00:29:46,560 --> 00:29:49,800 Speaker 7: So I'm a simple I mean believe in last time 616 00:29:49,840 --> 00:29:53,080 Speaker 7: I called, he was Paris to draw for a twenty 617 00:29:53,160 --> 00:29:56,960 Speaker 7: eleven GMC Sierra work truck with crank up windows. 618 00:29:57,080 --> 00:30:01,000 Speaker 2: Right, I get it. I get it, I get it. 619 00:30:01,040 --> 00:30:03,040 Speaker 2: I get it one hundred percent. But I'm just saying 620 00:30:03,360 --> 00:30:06,600 Speaker 2: I don't care if I'm working on a Ferrari, a Chevy, 621 00:30:07,200 --> 00:30:11,320 Speaker 2: a Hyundai, or a Kia. Parasitic draw is parasitic draw. 622 00:30:11,360 --> 00:30:15,880 Speaker 2: The procedure is the same, all right, So get the 623 00:30:15,920 --> 00:30:19,120 Speaker 2: meter hooked up right in this case, an hour is 624 00:30:19,120 --> 00:30:24,080 Speaker 2: an acceptable timeframe on a Ford product. Then with the 625 00:30:24,200 --> 00:30:27,360 Speaker 2: doors closed window, you want to put the driver's window down, 626 00:30:27,880 --> 00:30:32,520 Speaker 2: doors closed, right, key out of the car sitting for 627 00:30:32,560 --> 00:30:32,960 Speaker 2: an hour? 628 00:30:33,680 --> 00:30:33,960 Speaker 3: Right? 629 00:30:34,200 --> 00:30:36,880 Speaker 7: What about the hood? I can't seem to figure. 630 00:30:36,560 --> 00:30:39,600 Speaker 2: Out, Well, just close the hood latch or if there's 631 00:30:39,640 --> 00:30:42,560 Speaker 2: a sensor you're gonna have to disconnect and jump or 632 00:30:42,600 --> 00:30:45,800 Speaker 2: the wire. But you know the either way, because we 633 00:30:45,880 --> 00:30:49,320 Speaker 2: need to get access to the under the hood fuse box, 634 00:30:49,480 --> 00:30:51,040 Speaker 2: because we're gonna start there. 635 00:30:52,440 --> 00:30:56,560 Speaker 3: Right right, let's you know the under the hood fuse boxes. 636 00:30:56,640 --> 00:30:59,560 Speaker 7: The door is I already been there, they went under 637 00:30:59,680 --> 00:31:01,680 Speaker 7: and I'm I'm still all bruised up for trying to 638 00:31:01,680 --> 00:31:03,840 Speaker 7: get with that body. 639 00:31:04,320 --> 00:31:06,880 Speaker 3: You will listen, listen to me. You went through every 640 00:31:06,920 --> 00:31:12,040 Speaker 3: fuse under the hood, well of them. Okay, Well, ninety 641 00:31:12,440 --> 00:31:15,000 Speaker 3: isn't one hundred right, but. 642 00:31:15,040 --> 00:31:16,880 Speaker 7: I'm gonna get to the easy way out here. 643 00:31:17,080 --> 00:31:20,640 Speaker 3: There is no easy way out, all right. The easy 644 00:31:20,640 --> 00:31:22,040 Speaker 3: way at is to go buy a new car. And 645 00:31:22,040 --> 00:31:23,600 Speaker 3: you don't want to do that, and I don't want 646 00:31:23,600 --> 00:31:26,960 Speaker 3: to let you. All right, listen, I'm. 647 00:31:26,840 --> 00:31:28,440 Speaker 2: Gonna leave you with these pearl I'm gonna leave you 648 00:31:28,480 --> 00:31:31,800 Speaker 2: with two pearls here, all right, Dad, who's gone a 649 00:31:31,800 --> 00:31:34,040 Speaker 2: long time. One said to me, Ronnie, and he was 650 00:31:34,040 --> 00:31:35,960 Speaker 2: one of the few people that could call me Ronnie. 651 00:31:36,320 --> 00:31:40,240 Speaker 3: Ronnie. If there's ten steps, you don't go two, four, six, eight, ten, 652 00:31:40,800 --> 00:31:42,960 Speaker 3: one through ten.
