1
00:00:01,360 --> 00:00:04,360
Speaker 1: Ron Anian, Danny's Volkswagen broke this week. Yeah, can you

2
00:00:04,400 --> 00:00:07,200
Speaker 1: imagine my mechanic. Dan, He's got an eighty seven Volkswagon

3
00:00:07,200 --> 00:00:08,680
Speaker 1: and he drives it every day. And I think the

4
00:00:08,760 --> 00:00:11,119
Speaker 1: reason he drives it is partly because more people stop

5
00:00:11,119 --> 00:00:13,520
Speaker 1: and talk about this rad eighty seven Volkswagon than the

6
00:00:13,760 --> 00:00:21,920
Speaker 1: yellow seventy eight Z twenty eight Camaro.

7
00:00:24,040 --> 00:00:24,960
Speaker 2: The car Doctor.

8
00:00:25,200 --> 00:00:25,800
Speaker 3: I've spent a.

9
00:00:25,720 --> 00:00:29,240
Speaker 4: Lot of money paying good mechanics, which I trusted fair enough.

10
00:00:29,600 --> 00:00:30,520
Speaker 5: Best thing i'd god.

11
00:00:30,360 --> 00:00:33,080
Speaker 1: Is break it at somebody else who's got to fix it,

12
00:00:33,320 --> 00:00:36,479
Speaker 1: right right. So, but first thing I would do is

13
00:00:36,520 --> 00:00:38,400
Speaker 1: I would I would do a year make model vehicle

14
00:00:38,440 --> 00:00:39,040
Speaker 1: scan on that.

15
00:00:39,280 --> 00:00:42,960
Speaker 2: Welcome to the radio home of Ronananian, the Car Doctor.

16
00:00:43,240 --> 00:00:46,320
Speaker 2: Since nineteen ninety one, this is where car owners the

17
00:00:46,360 --> 00:00:50,680
Speaker 2: world overturned to for their definitive opinion on automotive repair.

18
00:00:51,159 --> 00:00:53,920
Speaker 2: If your mechanics giving you a busy signal, pick up

19
00:00:53,960 --> 00:00:57,240
Speaker 2: the phone and call in. The garage doors.

20
00:00:56,960 --> 00:00:58,880
Speaker 1: Are open, but I am here to take your call.

21
00:00:59,280 --> 00:01:02,760
Speaker 1: At eighty five ninety nine hundred and now he.

22
00:01:05,319 --> 00:01:05,720
Speaker 3: Running.

23
00:01:06,800 --> 00:01:10,520
Speaker 1: I think auto repair is a study in human emotion.

24
00:01:11,080 --> 00:01:14,720
Speaker 1: I really do. It's it's interesting, it's it's it's kind

25
00:01:14,720 --> 00:01:16,000
Speaker 1: of I don't want to say word. I don't know

26
00:01:16,000 --> 00:01:19,160
Speaker 1: if it's fun, but it's it's interesting, right because people

27
00:01:19,319 --> 00:01:23,840
Speaker 1: react differently to different scenarios. We had a long term

28
00:01:23,880 --> 00:01:27,760
Speaker 1: customer with his nine Subaru outback about a year and

29
00:01:27,800 --> 00:01:31,280
Speaker 1: a half ago. I think it was head gaskets failed,

30
00:01:31,280 --> 00:01:34,000
Speaker 1: so he went to the dealer, got head gaskets done,

31
00:01:34,040 --> 00:01:37,920
Speaker 1: and they told him he needed rear breaks. And this

32
00:01:37,959 --> 00:01:40,520
Speaker 1: isn't a mark on dealers. I'm not saying this just

33
00:01:40,520 --> 00:01:43,080
Speaker 1: happened to be this particular dealer, this repair shop with

34
00:01:43,120 --> 00:01:46,039
Speaker 1: a dealer with a Subaru sign over their door. I'll

35
00:01:46,080 --> 00:01:47,960
Speaker 1: say it like that, you know, because I think there's

36
00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:51,680
Speaker 1: good and bad and all. And this particular repair shop

37
00:01:51,720 --> 00:01:53,720
Speaker 1: told him he needed rear breaks along with the head gaskets.

38
00:01:53,720 --> 00:01:55,520
Speaker 1: He didn't do the rear breaks because he didn't experience

39
00:01:55,520 --> 00:01:57,920
Speaker 1: any problems. He didn't have any issues. The car had

40
00:01:57,960 --> 00:02:00,800
Speaker 1: been recently to see us within the past for previous

41
00:02:00,840 --> 00:02:03,960
Speaker 1: four months, and we had no notes about breaks down.

42
00:02:04,760 --> 00:02:06,520
Speaker 1: He called me to tell me, hey, you know, the

43
00:02:06,760 --> 00:02:09,320
Speaker 1: head gasket popped. I'm getting it done. Does the car

44
00:02:09,400 --> 00:02:11,720
Speaker 1: do for Ge said, no, I don't say anything in

45
00:02:11,800 --> 00:02:16,000
Speaker 1: notes about rear breaks, and he had head gaskets done.

46
00:02:16,240 --> 00:02:19,320
Speaker 1: So he went back after six months had another oil

47
00:02:19,400 --> 00:02:20,919
Speaker 1: change done by them, which I get, you know, I

48
00:02:20,919 --> 00:02:22,799
Speaker 1: think that's the obligatory thing to do you have open

49
00:02:22,800 --> 00:02:24,839
Speaker 1: heart surgery. He always returned to the doctor at least

50
00:02:24,840 --> 00:02:28,799
Speaker 1: once or twice, let them check their work. And again

51
00:02:28,919 --> 00:02:33,360
Speaker 1: they they you know you need rear breaks, and you

52
00:02:33,360 --> 00:02:35,560
Speaker 1: know again he said no. And then you know, the

53
00:02:35,639 --> 00:02:38,360
Speaker 1: year later, a little over a year later, it's on

54
00:02:38,400 --> 00:02:40,240
Speaker 1: our doorstep and he's an oil change, and ge, can

55
00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:43,240
Speaker 1: you check the rear brakes because he's getting nervous. It's

56
00:02:43,760 --> 00:02:45,520
Speaker 1: it's it's now, it's been a little over a year,

57
00:02:45,600 --> 00:02:49,440
Speaker 1: and he did, he does he need real breaks. We

58
00:02:49,520 --> 00:02:52,480
Speaker 1: did the oil change, and we did we looked at

59
00:02:52,480 --> 00:02:54,080
Speaker 1: all four breaks. As a matter of fact, we always

60
00:02:54,080 --> 00:02:55,679
Speaker 1: look at four breaks. Anytime somebody tells us, hey I

61
00:02:55,760 --> 00:02:57,359
Speaker 1: need front or back, we always look at four because

62
00:02:57,440 --> 00:02:59,079
Speaker 1: in case you didn't notice, you have four wheel breaks

63
00:02:59,120 --> 00:03:00,600
Speaker 1: on your car. So it's a good to look at

64
00:03:00,639 --> 00:03:04,520
Speaker 1: all of them and guess what. He doesn't need rear breaks.

65
00:03:05,200 --> 00:03:11,200
Speaker 1: So we saw the car about eight thousand miles since

66
00:03:11,280 --> 00:03:13,160
Speaker 1: the head gaskets were done. Because he doesn't go far

67
00:03:13,200 --> 00:03:15,680
Speaker 1: and he changes the oil based on time, you know,

68
00:03:15,760 --> 00:03:20,320
Speaker 1: not just mileage. So you know, he he he didn't

69
00:03:20,320 --> 00:03:22,280
Speaker 1: need real breaks eight thousand miles ago. He doesn't need

70
00:03:22,320 --> 00:03:26,799
Speaker 1: rear breaks now. And this is the you know, human emotion.

71
00:03:26,880 --> 00:03:29,680
Speaker 1: This is the societal thing that you know, why why

72
00:03:29,720 --> 00:03:33,720
Speaker 1: don't people trust mechanics because of that? And it just

73
00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:37,160
Speaker 1: it just comes down to being that simple. You know,

74
00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:39,640
Speaker 1: you can you can see a lot in how people

75
00:03:39,680 --> 00:03:43,320
Speaker 1: react and how they handle it. Now, the other side

76
00:03:43,320 --> 00:03:46,880
Speaker 1: of it is, if you know, I can give you a

77
00:03:46,880 --> 00:03:50,240
Speaker 1: different situation here, I'll tell you a quick story non automotive.

78
00:03:52,120 --> 00:03:55,400
Speaker 1: I had Tom laughing with this this morning. So I

79
00:03:56,000 --> 00:03:59,880
Speaker 1: had I had a bag of change, all right, and

80
00:04:00,280 --> 00:04:02,280
Speaker 1: this is what got me thinking about it. All right,

81
00:04:02,760 --> 00:04:05,280
Speaker 1: my customer d is. I had a bag of change,

82
00:04:05,280 --> 00:04:08,000
Speaker 1: all quarters, dimes, nickels, you know, my change big, and

83
00:04:08,040 --> 00:04:09,360
Speaker 1: I decided I wanted to get rid of it. I'm

84
00:04:09,400 --> 00:04:12,720
Speaker 1: done with it. I've got too much change mine. So

85
00:04:12,800 --> 00:04:14,920
Speaker 1: I said, you know what, I'm going grocery shopping today.

86
00:04:14,920 --> 00:04:18,960
Speaker 1: I'll take it to the coinstar machine and I'll dump

87
00:04:18,960 --> 00:04:21,160
Speaker 1: my change into the coinstar machine. You ever look at

88
00:04:21,200 --> 00:04:23,720
Speaker 1: the interest rate that they're charging it. They want thirteen

89
00:04:23,839 --> 00:04:27,479
Speaker 1: percent of your proceeds plus fifty nine cents for the transaction.

90
00:04:28,320 --> 00:04:30,679
Speaker 1: And I don't know if that's universal. I just thought, geez,

91
00:04:31,160 --> 00:04:34,039
Speaker 1: I mean talk about strong arm. I you know, it's

92
00:04:34,040 --> 00:04:37,240
Speaker 1: bad enough, but thirteen percent, I said, the heck with it.

93
00:04:37,640 --> 00:04:40,120
Speaker 1: I went to the self checkout line. I didn't know

94
00:04:40,120 --> 00:04:43,240
Speaker 1: what it was going to take that long, so, you know,

95
00:04:43,520 --> 00:04:45,000
Speaker 1: it was funny. The first guy that came up, and

96
00:04:45,040 --> 00:04:46,760
Speaker 1: I'm checking out my groceries and it was a fairly

97
00:04:46,839 --> 00:04:52,039
Speaker 1: large order. It was a couple hundred bucks. And I said,

98
00:04:52,279 --> 00:04:54,839
Speaker 1: I'm dropping my quarters and dimes and nickels into the

99
00:04:54,960 --> 00:04:57,200
Speaker 1: checkout slot. And I'm thinking maybe I shouldn't have gone

100
00:04:57,200 --> 00:04:59,400
Speaker 1: on a Saturday. But that's a whole nother story. And

101
00:04:59,440 --> 00:05:01,400
Speaker 1: the first guy, I said, you know, here's a study

102
00:05:01,400 --> 00:05:03,279
Speaker 1: in society. This is just like, this is just like

103
00:05:03,320 --> 00:05:07,120
Speaker 1: repairing cars. Why do people get annoyed? Okay? And it's funny.

104
00:05:07,800 --> 00:05:09,400
Speaker 1: So I said to the first guy, I said, geez,

105
00:05:09,440 --> 00:05:10,919
Speaker 1: I'm just going to be a minute. I said, you know,

106
00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:13,800
Speaker 1: this is how I was. And he got completely flustered

107
00:05:13,800 --> 00:05:16,680
Speaker 1: and annoyed and stormed off to another line. All right,

108
00:05:16,720 --> 00:05:22,039
Speaker 1: I get it. I you know, and you know, I'm

109
00:05:22,080 --> 00:05:23,880
Speaker 1: putting my coins in, my knickels and my diamonds in,

110
00:05:23,920 --> 00:05:27,080
Speaker 1: and it wasn't super busy, and then you know, somebody

111
00:05:27,120 --> 00:05:28,800
Speaker 1: else came up. I was about two thirds of the

112
00:05:28,800 --> 00:05:30,760
Speaker 1: way done, and she's looking at me, and the little

113
00:05:30,800 --> 00:05:33,000
Speaker 1: girl's looking at me, and I said, you know, I

114
00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:35,560
Speaker 1: wonder what would happen if I if I told a

115
00:05:35,600 --> 00:05:38,080
Speaker 1: little bit of a story. And I said, you know,

116
00:05:38,200 --> 00:05:40,400
Speaker 1: I said, I'm shopping for somebody, and this is the

117
00:05:40,440 --> 00:05:43,800
Speaker 1: only way they can afford to pay. And you know,

118
00:05:43,880 --> 00:05:46,160
Speaker 1: I just they just want to feel good about their groceries,

119
00:05:46,640 --> 00:05:50,520
Speaker 1: and this way they feel like they've they've participated. Take

120
00:05:50,600 --> 00:05:54,400
Speaker 1: your time, it doesn't matter. It's okay, We've got all day.

121
00:05:54,720 --> 00:05:54,880
Speaker 5: You know.

122
00:05:54,960 --> 00:05:58,400
Speaker 1: It's it's funny how you pitch things, and you know,

123
00:05:58,440 --> 00:06:00,760
Speaker 1: people react differently. So I kept putting my Nay. I

124
00:06:00,800 --> 00:06:03,280
Speaker 1: saved eighty two dollars eighty two dollars worth of change.

125
00:06:03,279 --> 00:06:06,359
Speaker 1: It was a pretty big pile of quarters. And I

126
00:06:06,400 --> 00:06:10,600
Speaker 1: guess my point is, you know, people are looking for honesty,

127
00:06:10,600 --> 00:06:13,760
Speaker 1: they're looking for valor, they're looking for morality, they're looking

128
00:06:13,800 --> 00:06:16,600
Speaker 1: for you do the right thing. And if they can

129
00:06:16,600 --> 00:06:19,120
Speaker 1: be associated with somebody that does the right thing. They're

130
00:06:19,160 --> 00:06:21,919
Speaker 1: happy with that, they're happy to hear. I think people

131
00:06:21,920 --> 00:06:23,680
Speaker 1: are happy to know when their car needs breaks, Hey,

132
00:06:23,680 --> 00:06:28,040
Speaker 1: I need breaks, if it really needs breaks, because then

133
00:06:28,080 --> 00:06:29,919
Speaker 1: they know that their car is in good condition because

134
00:06:29,920 --> 00:06:32,080
Speaker 1: they have trust with that mechanic. And I think trust

135
00:06:32,120 --> 00:06:35,440
Speaker 1: is the number one thing. It has to be right,

136
00:06:35,960 --> 00:06:38,040
Speaker 1: it has to be right. It's that way with a doctor.

137
00:06:38,560 --> 00:06:41,080
Speaker 1: Nobody walks into a doctor's office and says, how cheap

138
00:06:41,120 --> 00:06:44,280
Speaker 1: can you fix my heart my heart condition? Or how

139
00:06:44,360 --> 00:06:47,080
Speaker 1: cheap can you fix my medical condition that's life threatening.

140
00:06:47,320 --> 00:06:49,440
Speaker 1: Nobody says that, doctor, you think you can do it?

141
00:06:50,880 --> 00:06:54,560
Speaker 1: Why do people walk into a repair shop and ask

142
00:06:54,600 --> 00:06:57,719
Speaker 1: the guy that's going to be responsible to tighten the

143
00:06:57,760 --> 00:07:00,920
Speaker 1: lug nuts, install the breaks, and make sure the engine

144
00:07:00,960 --> 00:07:04,320
Speaker 1: is running right? How cheap can.

145
00:07:04,200 --> 00:07:05,520
Speaker 6: You do it?

146
00:07:05,600 --> 00:07:08,120
Speaker 1: Because once you're out on the road, you're sort of

147
00:07:08,160 --> 00:07:12,560
Speaker 1: subject to, you know, whatever happens out on the road.

148
00:07:12,720 --> 00:07:15,480
Speaker 1: You are in your own starship enterprise, traveling down the

149
00:07:15,520 --> 00:07:18,440
Speaker 1: highway at sixty miles an hour, hoping you don't collide

150
00:07:18,880 --> 00:07:21,880
Speaker 1: with the death star, that all the parts stay on

151
00:07:21,960 --> 00:07:24,040
Speaker 1: the car, that everything works as it's opposed to that

152
00:07:24,120 --> 00:07:27,280
Speaker 1: in a split second decision. The suspension operates as intended.

153
00:07:29,080 --> 00:07:32,720
Speaker 1: We came home from Pittsburgh last week and we were

154
00:07:32,760 --> 00:07:36,560
Speaker 1: coming home on Sunday night, and I was in that

155
00:07:36,680 --> 00:07:39,160
Speaker 1: part of Pennsylvania they call it the Pocono Express. You

156
00:07:39,800 --> 00:07:43,000
Speaker 1: get test, you're about twenty miles outside of Stroudsburg as

157
00:07:43,000 --> 00:07:46,120
Speaker 1: you're coming into North Jersey, and if you're not doing

158
00:07:46,120 --> 00:07:48,880
Speaker 1: eighty five miles an hour, you're getting run over. I mean,

159
00:07:49,160 --> 00:07:52,640
Speaker 1: it's just that simple. And there is no margin of error. No,

160
00:07:53,000 --> 00:07:56,080
Speaker 1: there is no there's just no other way to do it.

161
00:07:57,400 --> 00:08:01,120
Speaker 1: And you hope that your car is operating at peak performance.

162
00:08:01,120 --> 00:08:03,640
Speaker 1: You hope that it's doing everything that it's going to do.

163
00:08:03,840 --> 00:08:05,480
Speaker 1: You hope that you know, you don't get a flat,

164
00:08:05,520 --> 00:08:08,400
Speaker 1: You hope that you don't throw a belt. You hope

165
00:08:08,440 --> 00:08:13,600
Speaker 1: that everything gets you to the finish line. And that's important.

166
00:08:14,160 --> 00:08:17,640
Speaker 1: And nobody in their right mind, in this mechanic's opinion,

167
00:08:17,760 --> 00:08:20,320
Speaker 1: should walk into a repair shop and tell them, hey,

168
00:08:20,360 --> 00:08:22,960
Speaker 1: where can you cut the corner? Because I don't want

169
00:08:22,960 --> 00:08:25,080
Speaker 1: to spend all I understand, first of all, I understand

170
00:08:25,080 --> 00:08:27,120
Speaker 1: one hundred percent nobody wants to spend money in a

171
00:08:27,160 --> 00:08:29,960
Speaker 1: repair shop. It's a necessary evil. You know how you

172
00:08:29,960 --> 00:08:33,319
Speaker 1: save money driving a car? Don't drive? You know, it's

173
00:08:33,480 --> 00:08:36,320
Speaker 1: just that simple, all right, you want to not spend

174
00:08:36,360 --> 00:08:39,480
Speaker 1: money on the car, sell it, start walking. But don't

175
00:08:39,600 --> 00:08:43,600
Speaker 1: assume just because you want to save money. By not

176
00:08:43,720 --> 00:08:47,839
Speaker 1: saving money you're doing the right thing. You're kind of

177
00:08:47,880 --> 00:08:50,880
Speaker 1: putting yourself in peril, and you're definitely putting the person

178
00:08:50,920 --> 00:08:53,240
Speaker 1: next to you in peril, and your car swerves and

179
00:08:53,280 --> 00:08:58,319
Speaker 1: creates the accident. So what of repairs? The study in

180
00:08:58,400 --> 00:08:58,960
Speaker 1: human emotion?

181
00:08:59,240 --> 00:09:01,320
Speaker 6: It really is it.

182
00:09:01,760 --> 00:09:05,319
Speaker 1: If you watch it closely, if you listen hard enough

183
00:09:06,200 --> 00:09:09,760
Speaker 1: and pay attention, you'll see some of the strangest things

184
00:09:09,760 --> 00:09:12,640
Speaker 1: in the world and also some of the best. Just

185
00:09:12,679 --> 00:09:15,440
Speaker 1: like I did today standing online at the checkout at

186
00:09:15,480 --> 00:09:19,360
Speaker 1: the local supermarket, when the woman was very patient because

187
00:09:20,880 --> 00:09:22,440
Speaker 1: of the story, I told her to see how she

188
00:09:22,440 --> 00:09:25,800
Speaker 1: would react. It was really kind of interesting. By the way,

189
00:09:25,800 --> 00:09:27,120
Speaker 1: that's a great hack if you want to beat the

190
00:09:27,120 --> 00:09:30,040
Speaker 1: coinstar system. I think we should bring the system to

191
00:09:30,080 --> 00:09:33,120
Speaker 1: its knees and everybody should pay their credit pay their

192
00:09:33,160 --> 00:09:36,079
Speaker 1: grocery bills with change. Think of all the Think of

193
00:09:36,120 --> 00:09:37,800
Speaker 1: all the money that you would save on credit card

194
00:09:38,040 --> 00:09:42,520
Speaker 1: interest rates paying for groceries. So and the Tom points out, Yeah,

195
00:09:42,520 --> 00:09:44,240
Speaker 1: a couple hundred bucks a day is one bag. Okay,

196
00:09:44,280 --> 00:09:46,319
Speaker 1: so it was three begs. It was probably three hundred dollars,

197
00:09:46,520 --> 00:09:50,040
Speaker 1: and I wasn't paying attention. But in any event, it's

198
00:09:50,080 --> 00:09:52,520
Speaker 1: all a study in human emotion, and that's that's what's

199
00:09:52,559 --> 00:09:55,400
Speaker 1: going on. A five five five six oh ninety nine

200
00:09:55,440 --> 00:09:59,120
Speaker 1: hundred eight five five five six zero nine nine zero zero.

201

Speaker 1: I'm feeling kind of generous today, So you know what,

202
00:10:04,160 --> 00:10:07,720
Speaker 1: here's the deal. If we end up talking to you

220
00:11:10,960 --> 00:11:12,240
Speaker 1: what's going on? How can I help.

221
00:11:14,720 --> 00:11:15,880
Speaker 6: Jim?

222
00:11:16,280 --> 00:11:19,040
Speaker 4: I'm thinking of purchasing a gas hybrid car.

223
00:11:19,240 --> 00:11:19,640
Speaker 6: Okay?

224
00:11:19,880 --> 00:11:22,640
Speaker 4: Can I leave a gas hybrid car on a battery

225
00:11:22,720 --> 00:11:27,000
Speaker 4: tender for three to four months while I'm away without issues?

226
00:11:27,720 --> 00:11:30,120
Speaker 1: Well, let's let's talk about this. First of all, which

227
00:11:30,160 --> 00:11:33,559
Speaker 1: which battery are you talking about? You're talking about the

228
00:11:33,559 --> 00:11:37,360
Speaker 1: the traditional gas engine cranking battery.

229
00:11:37,400 --> 00:11:41,360
Speaker 3: Correct, that's I know, work's fine.

230
00:11:41,520 --> 00:11:43,839
Speaker 4: It's what happens is a gas if it's a gas

231
00:11:43,920 --> 00:11:47,880
Speaker 4: hybrid car, what happens to that system while the car

232
00:11:47,960 --> 00:11:48,640
Speaker 4: is sitting aisle?

233
00:11:48,880 --> 00:11:49,080
Speaker 2: Well?

234
00:11:49,160 --> 00:11:51,600
Speaker 1: Right, that's well, that's why I want to clarify. What

235
00:11:51,760 --> 00:11:54,680
Speaker 1: which battery are you taught? Are you asking me about

236
00:11:54,720 --> 00:11:57,680
Speaker 1: that you want to put on a tender? You want

237
00:11:57,679 --> 00:11:59,600
Speaker 1: to put the hybrid battery on a tender, or you

238
00:11:59,600 --> 00:12:02,240
Speaker 1: want to put the vehicle crank battery on a tender?

239
00:12:02,760 --> 00:12:06,520
Speaker 4: The vehicle crank battery we use and that's just fine.

240
00:12:06,920 --> 00:12:08,280
Speaker 3: What happens if I got.

241
00:12:08,040 --> 00:12:11,640
Speaker 1: It now, You're either I'm misunderstanding your question or your

242
00:12:11,679 --> 00:12:15,240
Speaker 1: misunderstanding mind. You're going to leave the gas hybrid vehicle

243
00:12:15,280 --> 00:12:16,959
Speaker 1: sitting for three to four months?

244
00:12:17,040 --> 00:12:18,600
Speaker 3: Right? Correct?

245
00:12:19,120 --> 00:12:21,640
Speaker 1: So which which battery do you want to put a

246
00:12:21,720 --> 00:12:22,160
Speaker 1: tender on?

247
00:12:24,520 --> 00:12:26,600
Speaker 4: I'm not aware that you can even put a battery

248
00:12:26,640 --> 00:12:28,280
Speaker 4: tender on the hybrid part of it.

249
00:12:28,400 --> 00:12:30,480
Speaker 1: All right, ask me the question again, Jim, let me

250
00:12:30,520 --> 00:12:31,000
Speaker 1: hear it again.

251
00:12:32,240 --> 00:12:36,200
Speaker 4: Okay, I'm thinking of purchasing a gas hybrid car. Can

252
00:12:36,200 --> 00:12:39,280
Speaker 4: I leave a gas hybrid car on a battery tender

253
00:12:39,480 --> 00:12:44,719
Speaker 4: three to four months while I'm away without issue? Okay,

254
00:12:43,760 --> 00:12:49,280
Speaker 4: I put the battery tender on the cranking battery right

255
00:12:49,520 --> 00:12:50,080
Speaker 4: under the hood.

256
00:12:51,200 --> 00:12:52,680
Speaker 3: What happens to the rest of.

257
00:12:52,679 --> 00:12:54,880
Speaker 4: The car that sitting for three or four months?

258
00:12:55,200 --> 00:12:55,480
Speaker 2: Well?

259
00:12:55,480 --> 00:12:56,240
Speaker 3: Will it start?

260
00:12:56,440 --> 00:12:56,800
Speaker 1: Okay?

261
00:12:56,840 --> 00:12:58,960
Speaker 3: Do I damage that hybrate battery?

262
00:12:59,160 --> 00:13:01,679
Speaker 1: So you can? You can leave the tender on the

263
00:13:01,800 --> 00:13:04,680
Speaker 1: vehicle battery, the cranking battery as we call it, the

264
00:13:04,760 --> 00:13:08,800
Speaker 1: traditional battery, right, the one that starts the gas engine.

265
00:13:08,840 --> 00:13:12,640
Speaker 1: You can leave a battery tender on that battery, no issue? Correct?

266
00:13:12,640 --> 00:13:15,240
Speaker 1: You know, good quality tender rated for the vehicle et cetera.

267
00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:19,880
Speaker 1: If the hybrid battery runs low. See, it won't matter

268
00:13:19,920 --> 00:13:24,040
Speaker 1: because as long as the the smaller battery starts the

269
00:13:24,120 --> 00:13:27,560
Speaker 1: gas engine and the gas engine runs. If the hybrid

270
00:13:27,600 --> 00:13:31,520
Speaker 1: battery is low on charge, the engine will run to

271
00:13:31,679 --> 00:13:37,480
Speaker 1: charge it. All right, There's there's no tender out there

272
00:13:37,520 --> 00:13:42,199
Speaker 1: that I'm aware of that's rated to tend a hybrid battery.

273
00:13:42,240 --> 00:13:45,080
Speaker 1: At this point. I haven't seen one. Haven't had, haven't

274
00:13:45,080 --> 00:13:45,800
Speaker 1: had the issue.

275
00:13:47,040 --> 00:13:48,880
Speaker 3: Okay, So there'll be no damage.

276
00:13:49,160 --> 00:13:51,680
Speaker 4: It won't hurt those batteries that is sitting all that

277
00:13:51,800 --> 00:13:53,520
Speaker 4: time losing that charge.

278
00:13:53,679 --> 00:13:56,199
Speaker 1: No, Now you know where you know where the bigger

279
00:13:56,240 --> 00:13:59,960
Speaker 1: problem is, or the bigger concern is. You're gonna let

280
00:14:00,160 --> 00:14:06,760
Speaker 1: gasoline sit for longer than forty five days. Gasoline that

281
00:14:06,880 --> 00:14:12,080
Speaker 1: has over forty five days can lose its charge, so

282
00:14:12,160 --> 00:14:15,160
Speaker 1: to speak, no pun intended. So if you're if you're

283
00:14:15,240 --> 00:14:18,400
Speaker 1: if you're letting it sit four or five months, just

284
00:14:18,520 --> 00:14:20,640
Speaker 1: know that when you get back it will it will

285
00:14:20,680 --> 00:14:23,440
Speaker 1: in all likelihoods start and run. It may not run

286
00:14:23,480 --> 00:14:25,680
Speaker 1: the best and have the best performance until you get

287
00:14:25,680 --> 00:14:28,200
Speaker 1: the old fuel out of the system.

288
00:14:28,720 --> 00:14:30,440
Speaker 3: Right, that hasn't been an issue.

289
00:14:30,480 --> 00:14:35,720
Speaker 4: I'm lucky there, Okay, so then if I purchased spend

290
00:14:35,720 --> 00:14:38,360
Speaker 4: that money on a hybrid, you know, is there going

291
00:14:38,400 --> 00:14:39,720
Speaker 4: to be a problem down the road.

292
00:14:40,120 --> 00:14:40,200
Speaker 2: No.

293
00:14:40,520 --> 00:14:45,120
Speaker 4: And I talked to dealers. I talked to three different companies,

294
00:14:45,640 --> 00:14:47,960
Speaker 4: and they said, well, we've never been asked that question before,

295
00:14:48,120 --> 00:14:50,520
Speaker 4: and they really didn't have an answer other than well,

296
00:14:50,560 --> 00:14:53,320
Speaker 4: maybe you should have somebody drive it for ten miles

297
00:14:53,360 --> 00:14:55,840
Speaker 4: and then park it. But you know, no, who do

298
00:14:56,040 --> 00:14:56,960
Speaker 4: you want to drive my car?

299
00:14:57,080 --> 00:14:58,920
Speaker 1: Right, here's what you have. Here's what you have to

300
00:14:58,960 --> 00:15:02,560
Speaker 1: think about. They build, they build a vehicle at assembly

301
00:15:02,640 --> 00:15:07,040
Speaker 1: plant A. Right, how long how long does it take

302
00:15:07,080 --> 00:15:11,119
Speaker 1: for that vehicle to come from assembly plant A, through distribution,

303
00:15:11,240 --> 00:15:16,320
Speaker 1: through shipping to the dock to Jim. Right, Typically it's

304
00:15:16,360 --> 00:15:20,160
Speaker 1: at least it's at least forty five to sixty days.

305
00:15:21,000 --> 00:15:24,640
Speaker 1: Then then Jim has to show up at dealership and say, hey,

306
00:15:24,680 --> 00:15:27,480
Speaker 1: I want to buy that car. So it's probably a

307
00:15:27,600 --> 00:15:35,080
Speaker 1: ninety day turnaround cycle. Okay, there's there's three months right there, correct, Right,

308
00:15:35,320 --> 00:15:37,880
Speaker 1: And there hasn't been a problem. If there was a

309
00:15:37,920 --> 00:15:40,360
Speaker 1: problem with all the hybrids that are out there in

310
00:15:40,400 --> 00:15:42,640
Speaker 1: the world, now, I suspect we would have heard about it.

311
00:15:43,920 --> 00:15:47,160
Speaker 1: So it's it's as long as the gas engine starts,

312
00:15:47,480 --> 00:15:50,280
Speaker 1: that will that will bring that hybrid battery up to range,

313
00:15:50,840 --> 00:15:53,360
Speaker 1: up to where it's supposed to go. That's the bigger issue,

314
00:15:53,400 --> 00:15:55,080
Speaker 1: all right, all right.

315
00:15:55,040 --> 00:15:59,680
Speaker 4: One other question, sure, what about the cars that are hybrid.

316
00:16:00,400 --> 00:16:04,120
Speaker 4: You plug in and they sit for three or four months?

317
00:16:04,360 --> 00:16:05,760
Speaker 3: Where are you hooking that up to?

318
00:16:06,840 --> 00:16:10,120
Speaker 1: Well, you're plugging in and they've got an inverter built

319
00:16:10,160 --> 00:16:13,040
Speaker 1: in there so they will maintain you know, they've they've

320
00:16:13,080 --> 00:16:15,920
Speaker 1: got the ability, they've had that built into the vehicle

321
00:16:15,960 --> 00:16:19,840
Speaker 1: to maintain that battery charge. And when that battery reaches capacity,

322
00:16:20,040 --> 00:16:24,160
Speaker 1: it'll just stop charging. But that's that's an interesting thought.

323
00:16:24,320 --> 00:16:26,840
Speaker 1: You wonder if you leave that plugged in, you go away,

324
00:16:27,680 --> 00:16:31,000
Speaker 1: you go away November first, and you leave it plugged

325
00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:34,840
Speaker 1: in and the battery runs down a little bit forty

326
00:16:34,840 --> 00:16:39,240
Speaker 1: five days later, you know, will the inverter allow the

327
00:16:39,680 --> 00:16:43,240
Speaker 1: or the charging transformer allow the system to bring it

328
00:16:43,320 --> 00:16:45,600
Speaker 1: back up the level or does it take a cycle

329
00:16:45,640 --> 00:16:47,920
Speaker 1: of the key right?

330
00:16:48,120 --> 00:16:48,360
Speaker 3: Right?

331
00:16:49,160 --> 00:16:52,880
Speaker 1: So, but all right, all good questions, kiddo, So all

332
00:16:52,920 --> 00:16:53,640
Speaker 1: good questions.

333
00:16:54,040 --> 00:16:56,520
Speaker 3: If I buy one, I'll if I buy one, I'll

334
00:16:56,560 --> 00:16:57,640
Speaker 3: let you know how it works out.

335
00:16:58,080 --> 00:16:59,960
Speaker 1: Now, it works out, and if you want a T shirt,

336
00:17:00,040 --> 00:17:01,560
Speaker 1: stay on the line. Tom will be glad to talk

337
00:17:01,600 --> 00:17:04,600
Speaker 1: to you. All right, sir, I appreciate, I appreciate the questions.

338
00:17:04,680 --> 00:17:07,359
Speaker 1: You're welcome, Jim. Yes, sir, let's go to Let's go

339
00:17:07,359 --> 00:17:09,000
Speaker 1: to Ted and uh, I tell you what let's do

340
00:17:09,040 --> 00:17:10,200
Speaker 1: Ted after the pause.

341
00:17:10,000 --> 00:17:12,000
Speaker 6: Let me uh, let me.

342
00:17:12,000 --> 00:17:13,680
Speaker 1: I don't want I don't want to take too early

343
00:17:13,760 --> 00:17:16,520
Speaker 1: here and jam them up. So but that was good

344
00:17:16,600 --> 00:17:17,520
Speaker 1: questions from Jim.

345
00:17:17,600 --> 00:17:18,000
Speaker 5: I like that.

346
00:17:18,280 --> 00:17:21,520
Speaker 1: Well, and you know again, you know, the whole hybrid

347
00:17:21,560 --> 00:17:25,199
Speaker 1: thing becomes. Are we prepared for the little intricacies of

348
00:17:25,240 --> 00:17:27,479
Speaker 1: what's involved in operating that vehicle?

349
00:17:28,240 --> 00:17:28,439
Speaker 5: You know?

350
00:17:28,520 --> 00:17:30,360
Speaker 1: Now, one thing I didn't mentioned this to Gym. I'm

351
00:17:30,359 --> 00:17:32,840
Speaker 1: not anti hybrid. I'm not not anti anything. It's like

352
00:17:32,880 --> 00:17:34,640
Speaker 1: the older you get, the more you think everything has

353
00:17:34,640 --> 00:17:37,280
Speaker 1: its spot right, will you use that? And what's the

354
00:17:37,280 --> 00:17:40,800
Speaker 1: cost difference between that hybrid vehicle and that all gas vehicle.

355
00:17:41,560 --> 00:17:44,200
Speaker 1: I think the future for the record is going to

356
00:17:44,240 --> 00:17:48,280
Speaker 1: be hybrid. I think hybrid is a better longer term

357
00:17:48,359 --> 00:17:52,359
Speaker 1: solution over the electric, over the complete gasoline engine. I

358
00:17:52,359 --> 00:17:54,719
Speaker 1: think it's a good balance between the two because it

359
00:17:54,760 --> 00:17:57,280
Speaker 1: allows for those moments when you need a battery and

360
00:17:57,320 --> 00:17:59,720
Speaker 1: it allows for those moments when you need gas that

361
00:18:00,160 --> 00:18:03,399
Speaker 1: infrastructure doesn't support all electric self Jim, good question, So

362
00:18:03,600 --> 00:18:05,480
Speaker 1: enjoy your T shirt, buddy. I'm running Innie in the

363
00:18:05,480 --> 00:18:07,560
Speaker 1: Card Doctor eight five five five six zero nine nine

364
00:18:07,640 --> 00:18:09,439
Speaker 1: zero zero. I'll be back right after this.

365
00:18:09,480 --> 00:18:21,960
Speaker 6: Don't go away.

366
00:18:28,119 --> 00:18:30,520
Speaker 1: It was not convince you see, was day and then.

367
00:18:32,000 --> 00:18:36,160
Speaker 2: My desal hand. She woke up and do me by

368
00:18:36,320 --> 00:18:39,920
Speaker 2: the hands. She's don't love me and my Chevy Van

369
00:18:40,119 --> 00:18:42,080
Speaker 2: and that's all nine with me.

370
00:18:45,400 --> 00:18:49,080
Speaker 1: Hey, let's jeez. The whole first hour, whole first half

371
00:18:49,119 --> 00:18:51,240
Speaker 1: hour went by, run an Innie in the Card Doctor.

372
00:18:51,320 --> 00:18:53,159
Speaker 1: Let me do the obligatory stuff, run an Innie in

373
00:18:53,160 --> 00:18:54,760
Speaker 1: the Card Doctor. So now that I know who I am?

374
00:18:54,840 --> 00:18:56,919
Speaker 1: Eight five five five six zero nine nine zero zero

375
00:18:57,000 --> 00:19:00,000
Speaker 1: is the phone number? Are you looking for us on Facebook?

Speaker 1: got the Card Doctor with you if you want to go. Plus,

388
00:19:29,560 --> 00:19:32,200
Speaker 1: I'm having an argument with somebody now about the value

389
00:19:32,200 --> 00:19:34,520
Speaker 1: of this show, and it would it would really help

390
00:19:34,920 --> 00:19:38,160
Speaker 1: make the case not only can we give out T shirts,

391
00:19:38,200 --> 00:19:40,040
Speaker 1: but if it works, we'll be able to give out sweatshirts.

392
00:19:40,160 --> 00:19:43,240

405
00:20:09,920 --> 00:20:12,520
Speaker 1: let's uh, I'm having an argument with another genius in

406
00:20:12,640 --> 00:20:16,480
Speaker 1: radio at the value of certain things, and I'm trying

407
00:20:16,480 --> 00:20:18,520
Speaker 1: to explain something to them. So I said, watch this.

408
00:20:18,560 --> 00:20:21,239
Speaker 1: I said, I'm gonna blow up the numbers. You know,

409
00:20:21,359 --> 00:20:23,720
Speaker 1: i'llah Howard Stern. So what's going on? How can I

410
00:20:23,760 --> 00:20:24,200
Speaker 1: help you today?

411
00:20:24,240 --> 00:20:24,440
Speaker 6: Ted?

412
00:20:26,440 --> 00:20:30,760
Speaker 7: You know you've talked about conventional and synthetic oil. And

413
00:20:30,840 --> 00:20:33,720
Speaker 7: I've got some old cars I've got I got a

414
00:20:33,800 --> 00:20:36,080
Speaker 7: thirty eight Willie that I've talked to you about before,

415
00:20:36,280 --> 00:20:39,720
Speaker 7: and we've got a thirty eight ninety seven supercharge motor

416
00:20:39,720 --> 00:20:42,760
Speaker 7: in it. And then I've got a fifty seven shivying

417
00:20:42,800 --> 00:20:46,160
Speaker 7: a fifty five with Stock two eighty three and well

418
00:20:46,160 --> 00:20:49,239
Speaker 7: it's got two four's on it. But and then then

419
00:20:49,280 --> 00:20:51,879
Speaker 7: a fifty five with a stock two sixty five that

420
00:20:51,960 --> 00:20:55,199
Speaker 7: I've rebuilt, and they've got flat tap at cams. Now,

421
00:20:55,240 --> 00:20:57,439
Speaker 7: I don't think the thirty eight hundred viewick does. I

422
00:20:57,440 --> 00:21:00,560
Speaker 7: think it's got a roller cam. Can I run synthetic

423
00:21:00,600 --> 00:21:03,800
Speaker 7: oil in them without a problem? I know, you know,

424
00:21:03,800 --> 00:21:05,840
Speaker 7: I know when it first came out there was a problem.

425
00:21:05,840 --> 00:21:07,880
Speaker 7: But can you run synthetic now.

426
00:21:07,880 --> 00:21:12,119
Speaker 1: It's not it's not the conventional versus synthetic. That's a

427
00:21:12,160 --> 00:21:16,400
Speaker 1: problem as I've read and experienced it ted it's does

428
00:21:16,440 --> 00:21:21,760
Speaker 1: the synthetic have the proper editors to support the flat tap?

429
00:21:21,800 --> 00:21:26,480
Speaker 1: It can? So you know, yeah, right the Zinc editor

430
00:21:26,480 --> 00:21:29,000
Speaker 1: of the ZDDP, I think is the is the non

431
00:21:29,040 --> 00:21:33,040
Speaker 1: technical technical term, all right, you know, to alleviate the

432
00:21:33,119 --> 00:21:36,320
Speaker 1: problem when it comes to the hot rod, and and

433
00:21:36,359 --> 00:21:38,560
Speaker 1: it will be the same with the Monte Carlo when

434
00:21:38,600 --> 00:21:41,040
Speaker 1: I start driving it. I am just going to run

435
00:21:41,119 --> 00:21:44,720
Speaker 1: driven driven oil. Just go look up driven racing oil.

436
00:21:44,800 --> 00:21:47,199
Speaker 1: It's not cheap. What is welcome to the sport if

437
00:21:47,240 --> 00:21:48,680
Speaker 1: you want it to save money in life, don't get

438
00:21:48,680 --> 00:21:51,440
Speaker 1: involved with cars. Uh, you know, it just comes down

439
00:21:51,440 --> 00:21:54,680
Speaker 1: to that. But there's stuff flat out works. They've got

440
00:21:54,720 --> 00:21:59,119
Speaker 1: a large selection of viscosities. They've got intelligent people to

441
00:21:59,200 --> 00:22:01,680
Speaker 1: talk to, which that and of itself is just amazing.

442
00:22:02,080 --> 00:22:03,959
Speaker 1: You know, you call up, you call up a lot

443
00:22:04,000 --> 00:22:06,719
Speaker 1: of these companies. You know, you ever call a performance

444
00:22:06,760 --> 00:22:09,760
Speaker 1: company and look for technical support and the first thing

445
00:22:09,800 --> 00:22:12,280
Speaker 1: they do is treat you like you're an idiot. You

446
00:22:12,320 --> 00:22:16,040
Speaker 1: know that, You're right, you know, it's it's you know,

447
00:22:16,240 --> 00:22:19,399
Speaker 1: it's I'm trying to explain my problem. Let me explain

448
00:22:19,560 --> 00:22:23,680
Speaker 1: my problem. Nobody's got a sympathetic ear driven racing oil.

449
00:22:24,200 --> 00:22:26,800
Speaker 1: Every time I've talked to somebody over there, they've been

450
00:22:26,920 --> 00:22:29,760
Speaker 1: they've been polite, they've been well mannered. They they make

451
00:22:29,800 --> 00:22:31,800
Speaker 1: you want to come back and talk to them again,

452
00:22:32,440 --> 00:22:34,359
Speaker 1: not that you need to. They usually answer the question

453
00:22:34,400 --> 00:22:36,919
Speaker 1: the first time. So, but that's where I would go,

454
00:22:37,119 --> 00:22:41,040
Speaker 1: the conventional versus synthetic. I'll say it like this. I

455
00:22:41,119 --> 00:22:44,159
Speaker 1: no longer stock conventional oil at the shop. I haven't

456
00:22:44,280 --> 00:22:47,280
Speaker 1: for probably the better part of four maybe five years.

457
00:22:47,600 --> 00:22:50,760
Speaker 7: Why I know you've said that, Yeah, And.

458
00:22:51,040 --> 00:22:54,800
Speaker 1: The rationale I have is because the three dollars a

459
00:22:54,880 --> 00:22:57,359
Speaker 1: quart or two dollars a quarter, or whatever it is

460
00:22:57,359 --> 00:23:02,000
Speaker 1: per court savings that somebody might experience, Synthetic is just

461
00:23:02,080 --> 00:23:07,240
Speaker 1: a better quality of oil. It resists breakdown, It resists moisture,

462
00:23:07,280 --> 00:23:10,359
Speaker 1: it resists all the evil you know, willies that that

463
00:23:11,440 --> 00:23:14,960
Speaker 1: oil suffers through that causes oil to break up. And

464
00:23:15,200 --> 00:23:17,080
Speaker 1: when I look at when I look at what it

465
00:23:17,160 --> 00:23:21,160
Speaker 1: costs to repair, rebuild, or replace an engine today, whether

466
00:23:21,200 --> 00:23:25,000
Speaker 1: it's a fifty seven Chevy or a twenty seventeen Chevy Silverado,

467
00:23:25,840 --> 00:23:30,520
Speaker 1: you know, all points in between it's too expensive. It's crazy.

468
00:23:30,960 --> 00:23:33,639
Speaker 1: Engine work is not engine work is not cheap or

469
00:23:33,760 --> 00:23:40,000
Speaker 1: easy anymore. It's layered. It's difficult, tom My engineer, Well

470
00:23:40,040 --> 00:23:42,560
Speaker 1: that's and that's and then find a machine shop to

471
00:23:42,640 --> 00:23:46,120
Speaker 1: do it, all right, you know? Tom Ray, Tom Ray,

472
00:23:46,119 --> 00:23:48,359
Speaker 1: my wonderful engineer that I that I bust his chops

473
00:23:48,359 --> 00:23:50,000
Speaker 1: from time to time here on Aaron. He knows I

474
00:23:50,000 --> 00:23:53,720
Speaker 1: love him. He had a twenty fifteen FOURD escape that

475
00:23:53,800 --> 00:23:56,880
Speaker 1: went almost four hundred thousand miles. It kind of disappointed us.

476
00:23:57,119 --> 00:23:58,680
Speaker 1: We kept saying, if it got to the five hundred

477
00:23:58,720 --> 00:24:00,639
Speaker 1: thousand mile mark, we're gonna put in this Smithsonian and

478
00:24:00,680 --> 00:24:02,240
Speaker 1: make four buy it back, which they didn't want. I

479
00:24:02,280 --> 00:24:06,040
Speaker 1: think they sabotaged us. But in any event, it started

480
00:24:06,040 --> 00:24:10,159
Speaker 1: to have engine problems. So just for giggles, Tom stopped

481
00:24:10,160 --> 00:24:12,400
Speaker 1: at his local Ford dealer and said, hey, I've got

482
00:24:12,400 --> 00:24:16,320
Speaker 1: this twenty fifteen escape four cylinder. Guess how much they

483
00:24:16,320 --> 00:24:18,560
Speaker 1: wanted to put an engine in a twenty fifteen escape?

484
00:24:18,800 --> 00:24:22,600
Speaker 1: Go ahead, guess what do you think?

485
00:24:22,680 --> 00:24:25,399
Speaker 5: I don't know, forty five.

486
00:24:25,640 --> 00:24:32,399
Speaker 1: Dollars yeah, eleven grand Oh my gosh, eleven grande. You're right, yeah,

487
00:24:32,680 --> 00:24:34,680
Speaker 1: just you know, And then I said to Tom, And

488
00:24:34,720 --> 00:24:36,959
Speaker 1: I said, okay, so you put this new engine in.

489
00:24:37,840 --> 00:24:40,000
Speaker 1: You know, if it you know, when do you do

490
00:24:40,080 --> 00:24:43,800
Speaker 1: the transmission? The trans is out. You're looking at it right.

491
00:24:43,920 --> 00:24:46,520
Speaker 1: The trans is an easy fifty five hundred bucks. So

492
00:24:46,560 --> 00:24:48,800
Speaker 1: now you're going to put fifteen grand into a nine

493
00:24:48,840 --> 00:24:50,919
Speaker 1: year old car with four hundred thousand miles on it.

494
00:24:52,400 --> 00:24:54,960
Speaker 1: What does everybody do? They do what Tom did? They

495
00:24:55,000 --> 00:24:57,320
Speaker 1: do what I told him to do. Tom, Just replace

496
00:24:57,400 --> 00:25:00,960
Speaker 1: the car. Because the issue you've got it's not, Yes,

497
00:25:01,160 --> 00:25:04,840
Speaker 1: fifteen thousand is cheaper than whatever Tom paid for the replacement. Okay,

498
00:25:04,920 --> 00:25:06,680
Speaker 1: even if he bought a used vehicle and he paid

499
00:25:06,720 --> 00:25:09,440
Speaker 1: twenty five, fifteen is still cheaper than twenty five. That's

500
00:25:09,560 --> 00:25:12,120
Speaker 1: not the issue. The issue becomes, and I know we're

501
00:25:12,160 --> 00:25:15,320
Speaker 1: off topic here, so I appreciate your graciousness. But the

502
00:25:15,680 --> 00:25:18,159
Speaker 1: issue becomes, you're spending that money like that on an

503
00:25:18,160 --> 00:25:21,600
Speaker 1: older vehicle. Can you get other parts for it? And

504
00:25:21,720 --> 00:25:25,760
Speaker 1: that's a concern. So you've got to choose wisely, Sure

505
00:25:25,840 --> 00:25:28,280
Speaker 1: you can. You've just got to be prepared to, you know,

506
00:25:28,320 --> 00:25:30,680
Speaker 1: you've got to be prepared to deal with that, all right,

507
00:25:30,720 --> 00:25:33,040
Speaker 1: You've got to be prepared to want to do that. So,

508
00:25:33,600 --> 00:25:36,840
Speaker 1: you know, back to your question, I like driven racing oil.

509
00:25:37,240 --> 00:25:39,280
Speaker 1: I like the fact that I've got somebody intelligent to

510
00:25:39,320 --> 00:25:43,359
Speaker 1: talk to. It gives me confidence. You know, it's hot

511
00:25:43,440 --> 00:25:46,200
Speaker 1: Roger a little different. Hot hot Roger like that that

512
00:25:46,560 --> 00:25:50,160
Speaker 1: that you know, they're just special to us because there's

513
00:25:50,160 --> 00:25:52,320
Speaker 1: not many of us left. We're kind of like I

514
00:25:52,359 --> 00:25:54,560
Speaker 1: often think that hot rodders are like the Jedi Knights

515
00:25:54,560 --> 00:25:56,919
Speaker 1: of this generation. There's not many of us left, and

516
00:25:57,560 --> 00:25:59,399
Speaker 1: you know, we're trying to hold the force and the

517
00:25:59,400 --> 00:26:02,400
Speaker 1: balance of the universe until people come back to reality

518
00:26:02,440 --> 00:26:04,400
Speaker 1: and say, hey, we need performance, we need a little

519
00:26:04,440 --> 00:26:07,040
Speaker 1: bit of you know, wake up and giddy up, you know,

520
00:26:07,119 --> 00:26:09,919
Speaker 1: because you know, NASCAR is never going to be the

521
00:26:09,920 --> 00:26:13,040
Speaker 1: same again if if it goes all electric and all.

522
00:26:13,200 --> 00:26:15,840
Speaker 1: You know, could you imagine if we're racing electric vehicles

523
00:26:15,840 --> 00:26:18,199
Speaker 1: at NASCAR in twenty years, You're gonna turn on the

524
00:26:18,200 --> 00:26:22,320
Speaker 1: TV and you're gonna hear whosh, whosh, whosh, you know,

525
00:26:22,520 --> 00:26:24,080
Speaker 1: as they buzz around the track.

526
00:26:25,760 --> 00:26:27,960
Speaker 5: He's gonna go to watch them, right.

527
00:26:28,080 --> 00:26:30,600
Speaker 1: You know, it's it's listen. I still remember the words

528
00:26:30,600 --> 00:26:32,359
Speaker 1: of my late father in law was I was dating

529
00:26:32,359 --> 00:26:34,680
Speaker 1: my now wife at the time, and I showed Now,

530
00:26:34,720 --> 00:26:38,480
Speaker 1: imagine me showing up, eighteen years old, sideburns, black leather jacket,

531
00:26:38,480 --> 00:26:40,359
Speaker 1: big boots, right, looked like I was kicked out of

532
00:26:40,359 --> 00:26:42,840
Speaker 1: the Frank Zappa band. And I've got this black fifty

533
00:26:42,880 --> 00:26:44,920
Speaker 1: five Chevy with open headers and slicks on the back.

534
00:26:44,960 --> 00:26:46,640
Speaker 1: And the father's looking at me like, oh boy.

535
00:26:47,119 --> 00:26:47,320
Speaker 3: You know.

536
00:26:47,680 --> 00:26:49,200
Speaker 1: I took him out for a rye and I shot

537
00:26:49,280 --> 00:26:50,720
Speaker 1: up the highway and we came back and he goes,

538
00:26:50,760 --> 00:26:52,480
Speaker 1: you know, this thing's more fun than a case of beer.

539
00:26:53,080 --> 00:26:55,480
Speaker 1: You know, I'll never forget that line. He just he said,

540
00:26:55,480 --> 00:26:59,359
Speaker 1: this is great. I said, yeah, exactly, you know, it's

541
00:26:59,680 --> 00:27:01,719
Speaker 1: you know. Then the next week I showed up. He

542
00:27:01,760 --> 00:27:03,200
Speaker 1: was standing there with the host. He says, oh, we

543
00:27:03,280 --> 00:27:05,040
Speaker 1: have to clean the car before you go out. You know,

544
00:27:05,080 --> 00:27:07,119
Speaker 1: he says, before you because I you know, i'd come

548
00:27:13,720 --> 00:27:15,840
Speaker 1: to go, I'll go with you. And I looked up

549
00:27:15,840 --> 00:27:17,840
Speaker 1: at the house. I remember thinking to myself. I looked

550
00:27:17,840 --> 00:27:20,159
Speaker 1: at the house and I said, you know, if we

551
00:27:20,280 --> 00:27:22,760
Speaker 1: leave them, nah, she'll be. She won't like that. She

00:27:25,400 --> 00:27:27,480
Speaker 1: just but maybe next time. And there was a next time.

554
00:27:27,480 --> 00:27:29,440
Speaker 1: I did take him out for a cruise. But that's

555
00:27:29,440 --> 00:27:31,720
Speaker 1: a whole nother story. But you know, there's there's something

556
00:27:31,760 --> 00:27:34,960
Speaker 1: about hot rods, right, There's there's something when you got

557
00:27:35,000 --> 00:27:36,760
Speaker 1: when you go out in your car ted, you forget

558
00:27:36,760 --> 00:27:39,639

Speaker 1: that aggravates you. You forget all the nonsense you saw

560
00:27:41,960 --> 00:27:45,199
Speaker 1: in the news. And it's like a meditation. To a

561

598
00:29:47,400 --> 00:29:49,280
Speaker 1: this a second. How many miles are on this Donny?

599
00:29:50,840 --> 00:29:51,880
Speaker 5: Seventy four thousand?

600
00:29:51,880 --> 00:29:53,760
Speaker 1: All right? Not a lot? You know, you want to

601
00:29:53,760 --> 00:29:56,760
Speaker 1: make sure the crank case ventilation system is working as

602
00:29:56,760 --> 00:29:59,360
Speaker 1: it should. You know, you may also want to try

603
00:29:59,520 --> 00:30:02,000
Speaker 1: and pop the dipstick up a little bit so it

604
00:30:02,080 --> 00:30:05,440
Speaker 1: sits up just to touch it shouldn't allow oil to

605
00:30:05,560 --> 00:30:07,800
Speaker 1: leak out. We're just trying to release some crank case pressure.

606
00:30:07,840 --> 00:30:10,640
Speaker 1: Do we have rings that are starting to get you know,

607
00:30:11,520 --> 00:30:14,560
Speaker 1: sticky and gummed up? All right? You haven't owned it

608
00:30:14,560 --> 00:30:16,120
Speaker 1: since new you've owned it for three years?

609
00:30:16,240 --> 00:30:16,400
Speaker 5: You know?

610
00:30:16,440 --> 00:30:18,520
Speaker 1: How often and what sort of oil change maintenance are

611
00:30:18,520 --> 00:30:18,880
Speaker 1: you doing?

612
00:30:20,280 --> 00:30:20,440
Speaker 7: Uh?

613
00:30:20,600 --> 00:30:23,880
Speaker 5: Ever? Regular? Every time it calls roll change, I get

614
00:30:23,880 --> 00:30:24,960
Speaker 5: it done, so are you?

615
00:30:26,160 --> 00:30:26,240
Speaker 7: So?

616
00:30:26,360 --> 00:30:29,600
Speaker 1: Are you doing it? You're doing it how the dashboard

617
00:30:29,680 --> 00:30:31,240
Speaker 1: reminder tells you to do it?

618
00:30:32,520 --> 00:30:32,920
Speaker 5: Yeah?

619
00:30:33,000 --> 00:30:35,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, And I'm going to tell you that's too long.

620
00:30:36,120 --> 00:30:38,200
Speaker 1: How much time and how much time? How much time

621
00:30:38,240 --> 00:30:39,360
Speaker 1: and mileage goes in between?

622
00:30:39,400 --> 00:30:39,640
Speaker 6: There?

623
00:30:41,480 --> 00:30:46,720
Speaker 5: Uh, probably three to four thousand miles and maybe.

624
00:30:48,080 --> 00:30:52,560
Speaker 1: Four months, okay, so that's usually I get. Usually when

625
00:30:52,600 --> 00:30:55,200
Speaker 1: I ask that question, the answer I get is that

626
00:30:55,440 --> 00:30:59,360
Speaker 1: it's up to a year and eight or nine thousand miles.

627
00:31:00,320 --> 00:31:02,960
Speaker 5: Yeah, no, no, I don't care, okay.

628
00:31:02,640 --> 00:31:04,880
Speaker 1: But well no, but usually that's how long the mileage

629
00:31:04,920 --> 00:31:07,960
Speaker 1: minder takes to get set to go off. Yeah, all right,

630
00:31:08,080 --> 00:31:11,560
Speaker 1: you're not because again, just just to refresh us, that's

631
00:31:11,640 --> 00:31:14,040
Speaker 1: you're not going by sticker, You're going by the the

632
00:31:14,400 --> 00:31:19,880
Speaker 1: actual dashboard maintenance minder. Yeah, okay, all right. You know,

633
00:31:19,920 --> 00:31:21,760
Speaker 1: I'm gonna tell you you're never gonna see oil coming

634
00:31:21,800 --> 00:31:24,360
Speaker 1: out of a tailpipe anymore. You haven't done a car

635
00:31:24,360 --> 00:31:26,600
Speaker 1: in the last twenty years. Catalytic converters just do too

636
00:31:26,640 --> 00:31:29,160
Speaker 1: good of a job, all right. Yeah, And I'm going

637
00:31:29,200 --> 00:31:30,680
Speaker 1: to tell you as long as as long as the

638
00:31:30,720 --> 00:31:33,400
Speaker 1: crank case vent system is working, like I said, popping

639
00:31:33,440 --> 00:31:35,600
Speaker 1: the dipstick up may release some pressure and may make

640
00:31:35,640 --> 00:31:38,000
Speaker 1: a difference. Just make sure it's not going to splatter

641
00:31:38,040 --> 00:31:40,200
Speaker 1: oil up and out. I don't think it will, but

642
00:31:40,320 --> 00:31:42,840
Speaker 1: it'd be a curious science experiment. Will that, you know,

643
00:31:42,880 --> 00:31:46,320
Speaker 1: will that help the situation? You know, there's nothing there

644
00:31:46,320 --> 00:31:48,720
Speaker 1: that can really fall in, so I'm not concerned about that.

645
00:31:49,400 --> 00:31:52,400
Speaker 1: But it's just you know, do we have sticky stuck rings?

646
00:31:52,800 --> 00:31:54,000
Speaker 1: You know, you can go down to your local lot

647
00:31:54,080 --> 00:31:56,160
Speaker 1: of parts store. There's a half a half a dozen

648
00:31:56,160 --> 00:31:59,120
Speaker 1: different products you can try just to see will something

649
00:31:59,240 --> 00:32:02,080
Speaker 1: free it up? You know you won't. You won't like

650
00:32:02,200 --> 00:32:04,160
Speaker 1: my answer when we're in the shop and we know

651
00:32:04,240 --> 00:32:07,320
Speaker 1: that it's rings and we're trying to loosen something up

652
00:32:07,320 --> 00:32:09,960
Speaker 1: that's really sticky stuck. Once we verify that, yes it

653
00:32:10,040 --> 00:32:12,760
Speaker 1: is burning it, Yes it is rings. You know. My

654
00:32:13,200 --> 00:32:15,000
Speaker 1: favorite go to and I haven't done this in a

655
00:32:15,000 --> 00:32:17,920
Speaker 1: while because we haven't needed to. Was we mix in

656
00:32:18,320 --> 00:32:21,000
Speaker 1: a pint of break fluid into the engine oil?

657
00:32:21,720 --> 00:32:22,120
Speaker 7: All right?

658
00:32:22,320 --> 00:32:25,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, but understand understand the ramifications of that.

659
00:32:25,760 --> 00:32:26,040
Speaker 5: All right.

660
00:32:26,080 --> 00:32:29,000
Speaker 1: Break fluid is very caustic. It breaks down the lubrication

661
00:32:29,160 --> 00:32:32,520
Speaker 1: quality of the oil. It's dangerous. You can ruin the engine,

662
00:32:33,040 --> 00:32:35,480
Speaker 1: all right, And what we will do is we'll sit

663
00:32:35,520 --> 00:32:37,360
Speaker 1: there and let the engine run for the better part

664
00:32:37,360 --> 00:32:39,760
Speaker 1: of two hours, two and a half maybe at idle,

665
00:32:40,240 --> 00:32:42,200
Speaker 1: get it good and hot, and just do a hot dump.

666
00:32:42,760 --> 00:32:44,840
Speaker 1: And we'll do that a couple of times, put fresh

667
00:32:44,840 --> 00:32:46,760
Speaker 1: oil in it and see what that does over time.

668
00:32:47,120 --> 00:32:48,560
Speaker 1: You know, we don't want to drive the car with

669
00:32:48,640 --> 00:32:50,600
Speaker 1: break fluid in the in the crank case because it

670
00:32:50,640 --> 00:32:54,080
Speaker 1: can cause bigger issues. But as a real strong, scrubbing

671
00:32:54,200 --> 00:32:57,960
Speaker 1: active detergent, that's a good it's it's it's it's the

672
00:32:58,080 --> 00:33:01,480
Speaker 1: final step when you know nothing else will work, all right, sir,

673
00:33:02,160 --> 00:33:04,240
Speaker 1: So all right, stay on the line if you want

674
00:33:04,240 --> 00:33:05,920
Speaker 1: a T shirt. Tom's glad to talk to you and

675
00:33:06,200 --> 00:33:08,600
Speaker 1: get your information. So be well. I'm running ady in

676
00:33:08,640 --> 00:33:27,520
Speaker 1: the car. Doctor. We're back right after this. You see,

677
00:33:28,280 --> 00:33:31,680
Speaker 1: you see Tom. And that's my point that fifty years

678
00:33:31,680 --> 00:33:34,760
Speaker 1: from now, Bruce Springsteen's ancestors aren't going to get up

679
00:33:34,760 --> 00:33:37,280
Speaker 1: and sing a song that says, baby, we were born

680
00:33:37,360 --> 00:33:41,280
Speaker 1: to charge. Nobody writes exciting hot rod songs about EV's right.

681
00:33:41,360 --> 00:33:44,120
Speaker 1: It's got to be about something with guts and and

682
00:33:44,280 --> 00:33:47,000
Speaker 1: and sound and bark and bite and snot and the

683
00:33:47,000 --> 00:33:49,640
Speaker 1: whole nine yards. For Ted n ILLINOI is where I

684
00:33:49,680 --> 00:33:52,640
Speaker 1: was going with this until I heard Bruce. For Ted Nilanoy,

685
00:33:52,680 --> 00:33:54,880
Speaker 1: who called in this hour asking about oil for his

686
00:33:54,920 --> 00:33:57,200
Speaker 1: fifty seven Chevy and got it left. They get a

687
00:33:57,240 --> 00:33:59,360
Speaker 1: look inside that guy's garage, a fifty five Chevy with

688
00:33:59,360 --> 00:34:01,360
Speaker 1: two fours on two four barrels and all the rest

689
00:34:01,360 --> 00:34:03,440
Speaker 1: of the stuff that he's got. That's that's neat right.

690
00:34:04,240 --> 00:34:06,800
Speaker 1: You know, we didn't talk about oil filters, and oil

691
00:34:06,840 --> 00:34:10,240
Speaker 1: filters are just as important as a good quality oil.

692
00:34:10,440 --> 00:34:13,160
Speaker 1: I'm sure Ted knows this, but in case he's not aware,

693
00:34:13,560 --> 00:34:15,800
Speaker 1: when he goes out to Driven Racing Oil, he will

694
00:34:15,840 --> 00:34:19,880
Speaker 1: see WIS Racing oil filters listed on their website. Again,

695
00:34:19,960 --> 00:34:21,680
Speaker 1: my argument as to why I think Wix is such

696
00:34:21,680 --> 00:34:24,120
Speaker 1: a great oil filter, there's companies like Driven that are

697
00:34:24,239 --> 00:34:26,319
Speaker 1: that are tied together with them that they're using Wix

698
00:34:26,360 --> 00:34:29,319
Speaker 1: filters and recommending WIS filters with their oil. You know,

699
00:34:29,320 --> 00:34:32,000
Speaker 1: because keep in mind, WIS is one of the few

700
00:34:32,040 --> 00:34:35,520
Speaker 1: companies out there. They make an XP oil filter. They've

701
00:34:35,560 --> 00:34:39,359
Speaker 1: got oil filters that are race rated for performance applications.

702
00:34:39,680 --> 00:34:42,480
Speaker 1: You see them used in NASCAR all the time. You know.

703
00:34:42,480 --> 00:34:45,640
Speaker 1: As a matter of fact, we're gonna have Bill Stamy

704
00:34:46,320 --> 00:34:48,480
Speaker 1: from WIS up on the show in a couple of weeks.

705
00:34:48,480 --> 00:34:50,359
Speaker 1: We're going to be here to talk about filtration and

706
00:34:50,920 --> 00:34:52,440
Speaker 1: some of the other things, so you can you have

707
00:34:52,440 --> 00:34:54,480
Speaker 1: that to look forward to a couple of two three weeks.

708
00:34:54,520 --> 00:34:56,439
Speaker 1: I'm not sure exactly where the interview is going to fall,

709
00:34:56,800 --> 00:34:59,799
Speaker 1: but by all means you know, ted for everybody else

710
00:35:00,080 --> 00:35:03,680
Speaker 1: which oil filters in their oil filtration line second to none,

711
00:35:03,719 --> 00:35:08,400
Speaker 1: and definitely geared towards performance as well. Wow, that that

712
00:35:08,480 --> 00:35:10,160
Speaker 1: kind of wraps up this hour of the Car Doctor.

713
00:35:10,239 --> 00:35:11,840
Speaker 1: Always fun, always great. I hope you got your T

714
00:35:11,960 --> 00:35:14,200
Speaker 1: shirt and you know what, we'll do T shirts next

715
00:35:14,239 --> 00:35:15,880
Speaker 1: hour too, so you got another chance to call in,

716
00:35:16,320 --> 00:35:18,400
Speaker 1: and until then I'm not an eny in the Car Doctor,

717
00:35:18,400 --> 00:35:21,840
Speaker 1: reminding you good mechanics aren't expensive, they're prices.

718
00:35:22,239 --> 00:35:23,200
Speaker 6: See you
