1 00:00:01,120 --> 00:00:03,200 Speaker 1: Ron and Nian. Yeah, there's a bolting out for this 2 00:00:03,320 --> 00:00:06,160 Speaker 1: certain uh I think go four or five six. Civics 3 00:00:06,160 --> 00:00:08,440 Speaker 1: have this issue where the bolts start to loosen up 4 00:00:08,440 --> 00:00:11,960 Speaker 1: and sheer and they want to change the belt routing. Um, 5 00:00:12,039 --> 00:00:13,640 Speaker 1: some of the things you trys and that Honda made 6 00:00:13,640 --> 00:00:19,560 Speaker 1: a mistake. How could that happen? Thank god cars, Thank 7 00:00:19,600 --> 00:00:24,880 Speaker 1: you the Car Doctor. First, I find out what trans 8 00:00:24,920 --> 00:00:27,200 Speaker 1: this is. If this is a CBT at the hundred 9 00:00:27,200 --> 00:00:30,479 Speaker 1: thousand mile mark, it's overdue. And if it's a regular 10 00:00:30,480 --> 00:00:34,440 Speaker 1: Honda trans regular horn to transfluid, it's way overdue.

Any of the 19 00:01:03,880 --> 00:01:07,760 Speaker 1: car Doctor here at five zero zero Car Doctor Show 20 00:01:07,800 --> 00:01:11,680 Speaker 1: dot Com, the website, get out there, podcast spreaker, subscribe, 21 00:01:11,680 --> 00:01:14,040 Speaker 1: Please Facebook running any of the car. Doctor good, I 22 00:01:14,080 --> 00:01:16,200 Speaker 1: got all the legal stuff out of the way. Let's 23 00:01:16,240 --> 00:01:18,360 Speaker 1: go right to the phones. Jim and Maine. How's that 24 00:01:18,440 --> 00:01:22,000 Speaker 1: for getting into a quick Jim in may focus and 25 00:01:22,160 --> 00:01:24,200 Speaker 1: um a sputtering? Think of all the words you ever 26 00:01:24,240 --> 00:01:26,319 Speaker 1: think about, all the words that cars have created and 27 00:01:26,319 --> 00:01:29,760 Speaker 1: put in the English language? Right, Jim right? Sputter? Right? 28 00:01:30,520 --> 00:01:32,480 Speaker 1: You know when the aliens come here, they're gonna go, 29 00:01:32,520 --> 00:01:34,840 Speaker 1: what's wrong with you? I sputter. They're not gonna know 30 00:01:34,880 --> 00:01:37,760 Speaker 1: what the hell it means. Um, you know sputtering. A 31 00:01:37,760 --> 00:01:39,000 Speaker 1: matter of fact, I don't know what it means. What 32 00:01:39,000 --> 00:01:41,479 Speaker 1: do you mean when you say sputter? Jim? Well, when 33 00:01:41,520 --> 00:01:45,120 Speaker 1: you start out from a death stop, um, and started accelerating, 34 00:01:45,120 --> 00:01:48,600 Speaker 1: it feels like you're running over washboards. So does the 35 00:01:48,640 --> 00:01:53,040 Speaker 1: whole car shutter and shake? Or if you let off 36 00:01:53,040 --> 00:01:58,040 Speaker 1: the gas, does the does the sensation go away? Um? Yes, 37 00:01:58,320 --> 00:02:01,600 Speaker 1: it does that when you're moving it. It really does 38 00:02:01,640 --> 00:02:05,880 Speaker 1: shake the car. Sometimes it actually hesitates to as it's accelerating, 39 00:02:05,880 --> 00:02:08,120 Speaker 1: and then it'll take it back up. And it doesn't 40 00:02:08,160 --> 00:02:10,720 Speaker 1: seem to do it after you reach fifteen or twenty 41 00:02:10,720 --> 00:02:13,799 Speaker 1: miles an hour. It's just when you're starting from a 42 00:02:13,880 --> 00:02:16,760 Speaker 1: stop and no check engine light. You're gonna tell me right, 43 00:02:17,080 --> 00:02:19,799 Speaker 1: no light? There's no lights? Uh? What little reading I've 44 00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:25,320 Speaker 1: done refers to a module transmission module, and I did 45 00:02:25,360 --> 00:02:29,720 Speaker 1: read that through sixteen Focus has had some issues with that. 46 00:02:30,639 --> 00:02:34,880 Speaker 1: I've added into the dealer and they reset the computer 47 00:02:35,240 --> 00:02:38,320 Speaker 1: whatever that means? Um, what does that mean? It still 48 00:02:38,400 --> 00:02:40,679 Speaker 1: does it? Yeah? And and what did they think it was? 49 00:02:40,720 --> 00:02:44,359 Speaker 1: And they give me any indication they didn't beyond that 50 00:02:44,560 --> 00:02:46,720 Speaker 1: they said it sometimes that they have to reset that 51 00:02:47,160 --> 00:02:51,280 Speaker 1: that computer. This is supposedly learned your driving habits, but 52 00:02:51,360 --> 00:02:55,280 Speaker 1: I don't know. I'm not a mechanic. Yeah, I get it. Um, 53 00:02:55,960 --> 00:02:58,760 Speaker 1: you know, my my questions and and and listen, my 54 00:02:58,880 --> 00:03:01,920 Speaker 1: questions become this as I'm sure they're yours. You know, 55 00:03:02,120 --> 00:03:04,960 Speaker 1: Is this is this? Faull? Can you reproduce this? Is 56 00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:09,480 Speaker 1: this there? Every time? Not every time? More times fifty 57 00:03:09,840 --> 00:03:12,840 Speaker 1: of the time probably or more. When I go expect 58 00:03:12,919 --> 00:03:15,519 Speaker 1: it seems like it happens more is after the car's 59 00:03:15,560 --> 00:03:17,280 Speaker 1: warmed up a little bit. When I first started out 60 00:03:17,400 --> 00:03:20,120 Speaker 1: driving it, first a few minutes, it's okay, but then 61 00:03:20,160 --> 00:03:24,880 Speaker 1: it it seems to react after that. How many miles 62 00:03:24,880 --> 00:03:28,280 Speaker 1: are on this a little a lot. Oh, just under 63 00:03:28,360 --> 00:03:32,840 Speaker 1: seventy three. Alright, so it's pretty young. Isn't a whole 64 00:03:32,880 --> 00:03:37,320 Speaker 1: lot of mileage? You've on the Carsons new No No. 65 00:03:37,440 --> 00:03:40,560 Speaker 1: I bought it used about a month ago and it 66 00:03:40,680 --> 00:03:44,080 Speaker 1: didn't show up in the test drives, And about three 67 00:03:44,120 --> 00:03:45,960 Speaker 1: weeks after that it started doing I had it back 68 00:03:45,960 --> 00:03:48,960 Speaker 1: into the shop and they reset the computers and give 69 00:03:48,960 --> 00:03:52,280 Speaker 1: it some time, and I've given it another couple of 70 00:03:52,280 --> 00:03:55,120 Speaker 1: weeks and it's it's doing it again. So it's new 71 00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:58,560 Speaker 1: to go back in. Did you buy this? Did you? 72 00:03:58,720 --> 00:04:03,360 Speaker 1: I'm sorry? Did you buy this used? From a dealer? Okay? 73 00:04:03,360 --> 00:04:07,640 Speaker 1: So it has some kind of warranty on it? Good? Oh? Good? Okay. 74 00:04:07,720 --> 00:04:09,960 Speaker 1: So one of the things you know right off the 75 00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:13,000 Speaker 1: bat is this, can I duplicate this? All right? And 76 00:04:13,040 --> 00:04:17,080 Speaker 1: if I can duplicate this with some reasonable accuracy, I'd 77 00:04:17,080 --> 00:04:19,559 Speaker 1: like to take a road test and and and look 78 00:04:19,720 --> 00:04:22,080 Speaker 1: at some of the parameter I'd like to look and see, 79 00:04:22,480 --> 00:04:25,160 Speaker 1: you know, do I detect early stage misfire? Looking at 80 00:04:25,160 --> 00:04:28,200 Speaker 1: mode six? Do I see do I see fuel trim 81 00:04:28,279 --> 00:04:30,919 Speaker 1: go lean? You know, where are some of the faults occurring? 82 00:04:31,400 --> 00:04:33,839 Speaker 1: You know, it doesn't sound like a fuel related problem, 83 00:04:33,880 --> 00:04:37,200 Speaker 1: but sometimes fuel trims will also show us a misfire 84 00:04:37,240 --> 00:04:41,080 Speaker 1: that's yet to trigger a check engine light or trigger 85 00:04:41,120 --> 00:04:43,880 Speaker 1: appending fault. And we can learn a lot looking at 86 00:04:43,880 --> 00:04:46,839 Speaker 1: fuel trim, fuel trims or or a godsend. Sometimes I 87 00:04:46,880 --> 00:04:49,040 Speaker 1: think um in the amount of information they can give 88 00:04:49,120 --> 00:04:50,719 Speaker 1: us and and and get us to think in terms 89 00:04:50,760 --> 00:04:53,960 Speaker 1: of mechanics on what we're looking for. The next thing 90 00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:56,839 Speaker 1: I'd like to know is are there any software updates 91 00:04:56,880 --> 00:04:58,680 Speaker 1: for the vehicle. I have no idea why they're doing 92 00:04:58,680 --> 00:05:02,560 Speaker 1: a computer reset. Uh, that doesn't make any sense to me. 93 00:05:02,600 --> 00:05:04,200 Speaker 1: And you think of it like this. If the computer 94 00:05:04,320 --> 00:05:08,800 Speaker 1: is learning, you're driving habits, so it's it hasn't learned 95 00:05:08,800 --> 00:05:11,840 Speaker 1: them yet, and the fault occurs, that bad. Now they've 96 00:05:11,920 --> 00:05:13,920 Speaker 1: taken it back to zero and making it start all 97 00:05:13,960 --> 00:05:16,600 Speaker 1: over again. That doesn't make any sense, right, Why would 98 00:05:16,600 --> 00:05:22,559 Speaker 1: they for that system to learn? How d Yes, every 99 00:05:22,600 --> 00:05:26,120 Speaker 1: I'll tell you what, every car manufactured in the last 100 00:05:26,440 --> 00:05:29,599 Speaker 1: six eight years has a learning curve, has a huge 101 00:05:29,680 --> 00:05:31,800 Speaker 1: learning curve, and the learning curve has gotten better. But 102 00:05:32,160 --> 00:05:35,360 Speaker 1: think of it like this. Anytime a mechanics says to you, hey, 103 00:05:35,360 --> 00:05:37,119 Speaker 1: the car has got to learn in order to solve 104 00:05:37,160 --> 00:05:43,520 Speaker 1: that problem. Become the marketing department for that company, right, 105 00:05:43,960 --> 00:05:47,000 Speaker 1: think of you know, you're the engineer and you're gonna 106 00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:48,920 Speaker 1: go to the marketing department and say, well, listen, we 107 00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:51,240 Speaker 1: got this really great way to make the cars run better. 108 00:05:51,360 --> 00:05:54,000 Speaker 1: What's that They're gonna annoy the heck out of the 109 00:05:54,040 --> 00:05:58,120 Speaker 1: customer by running like crap okay and vibrating and shaking 110 00:05:58,200 --> 00:06:01,080 Speaker 1: until the car learns the customers driving habbits. Yeah, I 111 00:06:01,080 --> 00:06:02,400 Speaker 1: don't think so. I don't think we want to do 112 00:06:02,440 --> 00:06:07,360 Speaker 1: that different every day anyway. Well, right, and that's more 113 00:06:07,480 --> 00:06:10,719 Speaker 1: of what that that's more of what the the the 114 00:06:10,800 --> 00:06:14,240 Speaker 1: software adjustment is really about. When they talk about a 115 00:06:14,279 --> 00:06:17,720 Speaker 1: car learning driving habits, they're talking about it more from 116 00:06:17,760 --> 00:06:22,200 Speaker 1: the perspective of will it help maintain emissions. Listen, if you, 117 00:06:22,360 --> 00:06:24,599 Speaker 1: me and the guy next door, we're all swapping around 118 00:06:24,640 --> 00:06:28,599 Speaker 1: and driving your car, each one of us would drive different. 119 00:06:28,800 --> 00:06:32,920 Speaker 1: MAT's human nature, okay, you know, drive, drive with your neighbor, 120 00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:34,720 Speaker 1: drive with your family. You know, it's you know, who 121 00:06:34,720 --> 00:06:37,360 Speaker 1: steps on the brakes harder, who's got a jack rabbit start, 122 00:06:37,640 --> 00:06:41,720 Speaker 1: who's hard on accelerator, who's slow on accelerator? And that's 123 00:06:41,720 --> 00:06:44,200 Speaker 1: what the computer is trying to learn because it's trying 124 00:06:44,200 --> 00:06:47,960 Speaker 1: to help maintain emissions. It's it's it's not you know, 125 00:06:48,040 --> 00:06:51,120 Speaker 1: it's not going to prevent the car from shuttering because 126 00:06:51,160 --> 00:06:54,279 Speaker 1: you drive hard and I drive easy. That's just ridiculous. 127 00:06:54,839 --> 00:06:57,919 Speaker 1: That's that's that's an erroneous statement. So back to the 128 00:06:57,960 --> 00:07:00,520 Speaker 1: back to the problem. Um, what do I see in 129 00:07:00,520 --> 00:07:02,880 Speaker 1: a scan tool? I'd like that, you know, are there 130 00:07:02,920 --> 00:07:07,440 Speaker 1: any bulletins? Is there are there any software updates? That's 131 00:07:07,480 --> 00:07:09,840 Speaker 1: a maybe that's what they're calling a computer reset. I 132 00:07:09,840 --> 00:07:12,440 Speaker 1: don't think so. Usually they'll say to you, most most 133 00:07:12,480 --> 00:07:16,040 Speaker 1: mechanics are egotistical. Yours truly included. We like to be 134 00:07:16,080 --> 00:07:19,120 Speaker 1: able to tell somebody, well, you know we flashed the computer. Um, 135 00:07:19,160 --> 00:07:22,800 Speaker 1: you know, it makes it sound official, and you know, 136 00:07:23,840 --> 00:07:26,600 Speaker 1: are there any software updates for it? And then last 137 00:07:26,640 --> 00:07:29,480 Speaker 1: I would just go through basics house fluid level in 138 00:07:29,520 --> 00:07:32,640 Speaker 1: the trans? Could I possibly have a transacting up, dirty 139 00:07:32,680 --> 00:07:36,080 Speaker 1: beat up trans fluid a trans problem starting that has 140 00:07:36,160 --> 00:07:39,239 Speaker 1: yet to be seen? And then very last on my list, 141 00:07:39,840 --> 00:07:43,320 Speaker 1: could this be a front wheel drive problem? Could I 142 00:07:43,360 --> 00:07:46,200 Speaker 1: have a bad drive axle starting to kick up? Um 143 00:07:46,760 --> 00:07:51,320 Speaker 1: uh drive axle and or a trans motor mount combination problem? 144 00:07:51,400 --> 00:07:54,720 Speaker 1: Like that. So you know, those those are the kind 145 00:07:54,720 --> 00:07:56,440 Speaker 1: of things we're looking for. But believe me when I 146 00:07:56,440 --> 00:07:58,800 Speaker 1: tell you the fact that that a dashboard lights not 147 00:07:58,960 --> 00:08:03,040 Speaker 1: on is a good thing, um, you know, because the 148 00:08:03,040 --> 00:08:04,440 Speaker 1: car is pretty smart. Let me ask you this real 149 00:08:04,520 --> 00:08:05,800 Speaker 1: quick before I let you go. If you turn the 150 00:08:05,840 --> 00:08:07,920 Speaker 1: key to the on position but don't start the car, 151 00:08:08,440 --> 00:08:12,040 Speaker 1: the check engine light comes on, right, Yes, okay, I 152 00:08:12,200 --> 00:08:13,640 Speaker 1: just want to make sure you didn't buy a used 153 00:08:13,680 --> 00:08:15,880 Speaker 1: car that somebody took the ball out of. You know, 154 00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:18,680 Speaker 1: that's that's well, listen, it happens, you know, it's it's 155 00:08:19,360 --> 00:08:22,880 Speaker 1: it's it's you know, right. I trust them as far 156 00:08:22,920 --> 00:08:25,440 Speaker 1: as what they're doing. I just I just at the 157 00:08:25,520 --> 00:08:27,480 Speaker 1: point that you've given me to talk to them about 158 00:08:27,480 --> 00:08:30,240 Speaker 1: when I'm in there on Monday is good. Yeah, that'll 159 00:08:30,280 --> 00:08:32,760 Speaker 1: give me some talking points anyway, just just just the 160 00:08:32,760 --> 00:08:35,040 Speaker 1: basis and when they if they ask what's Mode six? 161 00:08:35,520 --> 00:08:38,680 Speaker 1: And I don't know, you know, when I talk to 162 00:08:38,760 --> 00:08:40,839 Speaker 1: dealer text, I don't hear a lot of Ford text 163 00:08:40,920 --> 00:08:43,480 Speaker 1: talk about Mode six. And I think that's because Ford 164 00:08:43,559 --> 00:08:46,160 Speaker 1: doesn't train. I don't know if that's a true statement. 165 00:08:46,200 --> 00:08:48,640 Speaker 1: I gotta watch before I say that, But I'm suspicious 166 00:08:48,640 --> 00:08:52,120 Speaker 1: of that. Ford texts are not trained on more mode six. 167 00:08:52,160 --> 00:08:54,240 Speaker 1: I don't know that for sure. I don't. The ones 168 00:08:54,280 --> 00:08:56,920 Speaker 1: I talked to don't seem to reference it. Um. So 169 00:08:56,960 --> 00:08:58,880 Speaker 1: they may look at you funny. If they do great, 170 00:08:58,920 --> 00:09:01,320 Speaker 1: If they don't, then they'll figure out another way to 171 00:09:01,320 --> 00:09:06,640 Speaker 1: deal with it. But about um, that's well Mode six. 172 00:09:06,920 --> 00:09:09,679 Speaker 1: Mode six is the behind the scenes language that the 173 00:09:09,720 --> 00:09:12,640 Speaker 1: computer looks at to determine when to set a fault code. 174 00:09:13,400 --> 00:09:17,280 Speaker 1: So you know, sometimes certain dealers won't acknowledge that as 175 00:09:17,320 --> 00:09:19,920 Speaker 1: part of their diagnostic training. If you're an independent shop, 176 00:09:19,920 --> 00:09:22,880 Speaker 1: it's something you live on. Its standardizes and intends to 177 00:09:22,880 --> 00:09:25,480 Speaker 1: make all cars. Um we we we we try to 178 00:09:25,480 --> 00:09:27,720 Speaker 1: look at them all the same from the way of 179 00:09:27,720 --> 00:09:30,719 Speaker 1: a diagnostic routine and establishing a diagnostic routine. That's the 180 00:09:30,720 --> 00:09:33,800 Speaker 1: importance of modes six to us. So but see see 181 00:09:33,840 --> 00:09:35,240 Speaker 1: what they have to say. You've got more than enough 182 00:09:35,280 --> 00:09:36,760 Speaker 1: to talk to them about. And then, well, you know, 183 00:09:36,840 --> 00:09:38,680 Speaker 1: if you get stuck, please, by all means, call me 184 00:09:38,720 --> 00:09:40,360 Speaker 1: back next week and let's talk about it some more. 185 00:09:40,360 --> 00:09:42,959 Speaker 1: All right, sir, appreciate you're You're very welcome.

Robin, welcome to the Car Doctor, run A 193 00:10:11,240 --> 00:10:13,040 Speaker 1: needing the car Doctor at your service? How can I 194 00:10:13,080 --> 00:10:15,880 Speaker 1: help nice to finally talk to you, sir, A long 195 00:10:15,880 --> 00:10:18,200 Speaker 1: time listener, first time caller. Glad to have your board. 196 00:10:18,240 --> 00:10:22,240 Speaker 1: What's going on? I've got a two thousand one Jeep Wrangler. 197 00:10:22,240 --> 00:10:25,880 Speaker 1: It's a sixte anniversary edition about brand new. I've only 198 00:10:25,920 --> 00:10:30,440 Speaker 1: got it. I've only got about nine thousand miles on it, 199 00:10:30,520 --> 00:10:33,640 Speaker 1: so i don't drive it much every year. So I'm 200 00:10:33,640 --> 00:10:37,880 Speaker 1: wondering about fuel stabilizers and putting gas in it every year. 201 00:10:38,280 --> 00:10:40,719 Speaker 1: You know, I've got about five gallons left from last year. 202 00:10:40,720 --> 00:10:44,400 Speaker 1: I've got the Barman's Total Fuel stabilizer in it. Is 203 00:10:44,440 --> 00:10:48,000 Speaker 1: it best off to add five more gallons send that out? 204 00:10:48,120 --> 00:10:50,440 Speaker 1: Run it out? Is it better off to run just 205 00:10:50,559 --> 00:10:53,880 Speaker 1: five gallons out and then you know the next five 206 00:10:53,880 --> 00:10:57,440 Speaker 1: gallons around run fresh? What about topping it off at 207 00:10:57,440 --> 00:10:58,920 Speaker 1: the end of the year. You know, we've always been 208 00:10:58,920 --> 00:11:01,880 Speaker 1: told about condensation and tanks. Should I fill it and 209 00:11:01,880 --> 00:11:04,640 Speaker 1: then put field stabilizer in it? If I do that, 210 00:11:04,640 --> 00:11:06,240 Speaker 1: that gas is definitely going to be in there for 211 00:11:06,280 --> 00:11:08,600 Speaker 1: two years. Yeah. You don't drive this a whole lot. 212 00:11:08,640 --> 00:11:12,720 Speaker 1: I can tell now. I just when the military guys 213 00:11:12,800 --> 00:11:16,560 Speaker 1: come in, and it's been in parades and stuff like that. So, um, 214 00:11:16,880 --> 00:11:19,480 Speaker 1: I'm intentionally keeping a little mileage. It's just a fun vehicle. 215 00:11:19,559 --> 00:11:21,000 Speaker 1: I get it out for a few months in the 216 00:11:21,040 --> 00:11:23,520 Speaker 1: summer and then park it away in the winter. I 217 00:11:23,920 --> 00:11:26,679 Speaker 1: think what you're doing is fine, and I like your choice. 218 00:11:26,679 --> 00:11:29,880 Speaker 1: You know, the Barriman stuff works really well. Uh you 219 00:11:29,880 --> 00:11:33,240 Speaker 1: know in terms of I think everything has its limits. 220 00:11:33,440 --> 00:11:36,680 Speaker 1: How old is the guess it's in there now? Um, 221 00:11:36,720 --> 00:11:38,959 Speaker 1: it would be from the summer before. So I will 222 00:11:38,960 --> 00:11:42,640 Speaker 1: be running that out here probably this week. And that's 223 00:11:42,679 --> 00:11:44,559 Speaker 1: my question. You know, when I first got it out, 224 00:11:44,600 --> 00:11:47,560 Speaker 1: I know I've got probably four to five gallons in it. 225 00:11:47,640 --> 00:11:49,760 Speaker 1: Do I add four to five gallons fresh to senden 226 00:11:49,840 --> 00:11:52,720 Speaker 1: that out from two years ago? What I just do better? 227 00:11:52,760 --> 00:11:54,840 Speaker 1: Just to go ahead and run this on out and 228 00:11:54,880 --> 00:11:57,040 Speaker 1: then put in five or ten gallons or fresh gas 229 00:11:57,120 --> 00:11:59,120 Speaker 1: to run it on. Um. Well, because then I guess 230 00:11:59,160 --> 00:12:00,680 Speaker 1: the question is you run it out till you have 231 00:12:00,720 --> 00:12:02,720 Speaker 1: five gallons of fuel in there if you've mixed it, 232 00:12:03,120 --> 00:12:05,960 Speaker 1: and that means you'd have five gallons of fresh fuel 233 00:12:06,000 --> 00:12:10,520 Speaker 1: and sort of deleted diluted fuel from the previous summer. Correct, correct, 234 00:12:10,720 --> 00:12:13,320 Speaker 1: And I'd run it out. I'd run it out and 235 00:12:13,360 --> 00:12:15,360 Speaker 1: start and start fresh again. I think that makes more 236 00:12:15,400 --> 00:12:18,560 Speaker 1: sense in my mind. And and and treat it like that, 237 00:12:19,080 --> 00:12:22,800 Speaker 1: you know, do you start this at all in the wintertime? Now? Now, 238 00:12:22,880 --> 00:12:24,800 Speaker 1: I put it up on jack stands, take all the 239 00:12:24,800 --> 00:12:26,880 Speaker 1: weight and everything off the wheels. I pulled the battery, 240 00:12:27,679 --> 00:12:29,840 Speaker 1: and I just I just let it sit for the winner. 241 00:12:30,000 --> 00:12:32,560 Speaker 1: Is it is it in a is it um a garage? 242 00:12:32,640 --> 00:12:34,800 Speaker 1: Or is it sitting outside and under a carboard? No, 243 00:12:34,960 --> 00:12:37,760 Speaker 1: it's it's it's an enclosed garage because the vehicle hasn't 244 00:12:37,760 --> 00:12:41,400 Speaker 1: been it hasn't been wet since two thousand two. Um. Yeah, 245 00:12:41,440 --> 00:12:44,000 Speaker 1: that's fine, that's fine. That that that should be pretty neat. 246 00:12:44,040 --> 00:12:46,120 Speaker 1: I'd like they want to send some pictures that will 247 00:12:46,160 --> 00:12:47,760 Speaker 1: put up on the Facebook page. That would be kind 248 00:12:47,760 --> 00:12:51,600 Speaker 1: of neat to say, Um, I'm sure, Yeah, I'm sure 249 00:12:51,640 --> 00:12:54,200 Speaker 1: this thing is real. Pretty Ronnet Car Doctor Show dot 250 00:12:54,200 --> 00:12:57,080 Speaker 1: Com reader's ride will call it. Uh, you know, the 251 00:12:57,120 --> 00:13:00,440 Speaker 1: sixtieth anniversary edition was a real sharp piece. We have 252 00:13:00,480 --> 00:13:03,040 Speaker 1: a fondness for jeeps anyway. We were a big jeep 253 00:13:03,040 --> 00:13:06,000 Speaker 1: family when the kids were around more um, we had 254 00:13:06,040 --> 00:13:08,760 Speaker 1: a bunch of Jeeps running around and my tech is, uh, 255 00:13:08,920 --> 00:13:11,760 Speaker 1: Danny's a big jeep guy to um, you know cool. 256 00:13:12,600 --> 00:13:14,960 Speaker 1: It's probably one of the most fun vehicles I've ever owned. 257 00:13:15,120 --> 00:13:16,840 Speaker 1: I mean, when you're running around no top and two 258 00:13:16,960 --> 00:13:19,080 Speaker 1: no doors, everybody waves at you. When you stop at 259 00:13:19,120 --> 00:13:20,959 Speaker 1: the gas station, everybody walks up and talks to you. 260 00:13:21,040 --> 00:13:23,840 Speaker 1: They want to look at it. My father and I 261 00:13:23,880 --> 00:13:26,840 Speaker 1: when I bought this one up to the Chrysler Jeep 262 00:13:26,920 --> 00:13:29,720 Speaker 1: Museum and they had a sixtieth anniversary display in the 263 00:13:29,840 --> 00:13:32,360 Speaker 1: history of the Jeeps. So my goal is to keep 264 00:13:32,400 --> 00:13:36,080 Speaker 1: this nice, keep it unique. Everything on it is factory 265 00:13:36,480 --> 00:13:38,679 Speaker 1: Jeep stuff. I've got the top folded down and it's 266 00:13:38,720 --> 00:13:41,560 Speaker 1: got a factory Jeep boot. I've got the factory cover. 267 00:13:42,280 --> 00:13:44,719 Speaker 1: And so when I get older and I passed my 268 00:13:44,840 --> 00:13:47,840 Speaker 1: goals to donate it to the Christroom Museum. What a 269 00:13:47,880 --> 00:13:49,760 Speaker 1: what a thought? And that's a that's a nice thought. 270 00:13:49,840 --> 00:13:51,480 Speaker 1: You know where the you know it's and it's an 271 00:13:51,520 --> 00:13:54,040 Speaker 1: interesting story. And I don't really know the answer to this, 272 00:13:54,080 --> 00:13:56,120 Speaker 1: but I've heard the rumor about where the word jeep 273 00:13:56,200 --> 00:13:58,640 Speaker 1: came from? Do you know? You know what the term? 274 00:13:58,720 --> 00:14:00,440 Speaker 1: Do you know? Do you know where the term or 275 00:14:00,480 --> 00:14:03,760 Speaker 1: the name jeep came from. I think it's folklore, but 276 00:14:03,800 --> 00:14:06,360 Speaker 1: everybody wants to say it's it's UM kind of an 277 00:14:06,400 --> 00:14:09,640 Speaker 1: acronym for the general purpose vehicle. Yeah, yeah, that's what 278 00:14:09,720 --> 00:14:14,440 Speaker 1: I've heard. UM. Whether that's true or not, I don't know, UM, 279 00:14:14,480 --> 00:14:18,679 Speaker 1: but it is an interesting story. Uh, by driving with 280 00:14:18,720 --> 00:14:21,040 Speaker 1: this type of driving there, I do do you recommend 281 00:14:21,080 --> 00:14:23,880 Speaker 1: any of the other um Berryman products as far as 282 00:14:23,920 --> 00:14:26,200 Speaker 1: fuel additudes and stuff like that, since I put such 283 00:14:26,200 --> 00:14:28,120 Speaker 1: a few miles on it, As far as maybe a 284 00:14:28,120 --> 00:14:30,680 Speaker 1: cleaner or fuel addeditive of some sort, I don't think 285 00:14:30,680 --> 00:14:35,080 Speaker 1: you're running it enough to to justify it. Uh you know, 286 00:14:35,320 --> 00:14:39,320 Speaker 1: I mean, listen, you know the Berryman fuel system cleaner itself. 287 00:14:39,720 --> 00:14:41,920 Speaker 1: I just don't know if I would put Berryman cleaner 288 00:14:41,960 --> 00:14:44,000 Speaker 1: in there with the fuel stabilizer. I don't know well 289 00:14:44,080 --> 00:14:46,520 Speaker 1: how I don't know how well the products play together 290 00:14:47,560 --> 00:14:50,600 Speaker 1: using them separately. Yeah. Absolutely. If you said to me, hey, 291 00:14:50,600 --> 00:14:53,800 Speaker 1: I'm going to run five gallons of of old fuel 292 00:14:53,840 --> 00:14:55,480 Speaker 1: through it, get rid of it, put five gallons of 293 00:14:55,560 --> 00:14:58,840 Speaker 1: fresh and throw some Berryman's cleaner in the proper proportion 294 00:14:58,880 --> 00:15:01,280 Speaker 1: because it's not a full time ink now, and and 295 00:15:01,280 --> 00:15:03,040 Speaker 1: and and run that through the clean and then put 296 00:15:03,080 --> 00:15:06,280 Speaker 1: five gallons of more gas in it, and you know, 297 00:15:06,440 --> 00:15:09,480 Speaker 1: use a stabilizer and that. I think that's great. Um. 298 00:15:09,520 --> 00:15:12,160 Speaker 1: I would agree with that. Um. But you know, you 299 00:15:12,160 --> 00:15:15,200 Speaker 1: don't want to over medicate, is what I'm trying to say. 300 00:15:15,280 --> 00:15:17,400 Speaker 1: You don't want to you know, you know, not too 301 00:15:17,400 --> 00:15:19,440 Speaker 1: many chemicals, and it becomes then it becomes a whole 302 00:15:19,440 --> 00:15:22,920 Speaker 1: separate issue, one to itself. So sure, all right, sir. 303 00:15:24,000 --> 00:15:26,480 Speaker 1: I appreciate your up, sir. I'll continue listening. Great show. 304 00:15:26,600 --> 00:15:29,400 Speaker 1: You're very welcome. You keep that cheap going, man. Yeah, 305 00:15:29,560 --> 00:15:32,400 Speaker 1: nine thousand miles. Let's see how old was I in 306 00:15:32,480 --> 00:15:36,720 Speaker 1: two thousand and one? And that's um cheefe, that's uh, 307 00:15:36,840 --> 00:15:40,440 Speaker 1: that's quite old. Um, that's almost eighteen years old. And 308 00:15:40,480 --> 00:15:43,479 Speaker 1: it's got nine thousand miles on it. He's going uh? 309 00:15:43,680 --> 00:15:47,400 Speaker 1: Is he going five miles a year? No? Yeah, he's going, 310 00:15:48,360 --> 00:15:54,080 Speaker 1: he's going five miles a year. Um hm, so neat idea. 311 00:15:54,160 --> 00:15:55,840 Speaker 1: And you know it's interesting, right did you did you 312 00:15:55,880 --> 00:15:58,800 Speaker 1: listen to what he said? Him and his father. See, 313 00:15:59,000 --> 00:16:03,280 Speaker 1: it's it's always there's always that emotional attachment to cars. 314 00:16:04,040 --> 00:16:07,480 Speaker 1: And that's what people that are into self driving cars 315 00:16:07,480 --> 00:16:12,120 Speaker 1: will never understand, all right, because we look at cars 316 00:16:12,320 --> 00:16:14,920 Speaker 1: and and the way we as a country see cars. 317 00:16:15,400 --> 00:16:19,280 Speaker 1: It's that emotional attachment. It's it's it's where we were, 318 00:16:19,360 --> 00:16:23,080 Speaker 1: you know what I can. I can. I can be 319 00:16:23,080 --> 00:16:26,280 Speaker 1: having a really bad day, a really bad week, and 320 00:16:26,320 --> 00:16:27,680 Speaker 1: I can. I you know, I don't want to fix 321 00:16:27,720 --> 00:16:30,280 Speaker 1: cars anymore. And and and and why does this happen? 322 00:16:30,320 --> 00:16:33,040 Speaker 1: And how did this happen? And I can think back 323 00:16:33,080 --> 00:16:35,160 Speaker 1: to that little boy, seven years old, sitting on the 324 00:16:35,160 --> 00:16:37,000 Speaker 1: fender of the sixty three link in hand and my 325 00:16:37,080 --> 00:16:40,480 Speaker 1: father wrenches, and I can remember that and it just, 326 00:16:40,640 --> 00:16:42,080 Speaker 1: you know, it brings a tear to my eye and 327 00:16:42,080 --> 00:16:44,240 Speaker 1: it just okay, you know what, let's keep doing this. 328 00:16:44,320 --> 00:16:46,640 Speaker 1: Dad would have wanted me to do that. And and 329 00:16:46,640 --> 00:16:50,600 Speaker 1: and that's the emotional attachment to cars. Um. You know, 330 00:16:50,600 --> 00:16:52,600 Speaker 1: I can still remember, you know, And you've got to 331 00:16:52,600 --> 00:16:55,840 Speaker 1: think about this, And you know I only realized this recently, right, 332 00:16:56,080 --> 00:16:58,600 Speaker 1: you know, I think it's the older you get in life. Um, 333 00:16:58,680 --> 00:17:02,200 Speaker 1: you're always a work in progress, us, you're always evolving. Um, 334 00:17:02,240 --> 00:17:05,320 Speaker 1: I'm seven years old sitting on the fender of a 335 00:17:05,400 --> 00:17:08,119 Speaker 1: sixty three Lincoln. But we didn't have money. This was 336 00:17:08,240 --> 00:17:10,640 Speaker 1: nineteen sixty six, sixty seven. That was an old car 337 00:17:10,720 --> 00:17:14,840 Speaker 1: in nineteen sixty six. Right, and you'd be hand you know, 338 00:17:14,840 --> 00:17:18,000 Speaker 1: you'd get the wrenches and Ronnie, get me a get 339 00:17:18,000 --> 00:17:20,240 Speaker 1: me a um, get me a set of feeler gages. 340 00:17:20,280 --> 00:17:23,119 Speaker 1: So i'd have to you know, you know, heart far up. 341 00:17:23,720 --> 00:17:25,439 Speaker 1: For a seven year old to jump down from the 342 00:17:25,440 --> 00:17:27,960 Speaker 1: fender of a sixty three Lincoln, that's like jumping the 343 00:17:28,000 --> 00:17:31,080 Speaker 1: Grand Canyon, for gosh sake. Okay, you jump down, you'd 344 00:17:31,119 --> 00:17:33,640 Speaker 1: fall down, actually all right. And then you'd walk over 345 00:17:33,640 --> 00:17:35,199 Speaker 1: to the toolbox. And it was always he had all 346 00:17:35,200 --> 00:17:37,359 Speaker 1: those tools, you know, big toolboxing. There was always in 347 00:17:37,400 --> 00:17:39,199 Speaker 1: that top draw that you could kind of you know, 348 00:17:39,359 --> 00:17:40,720 Speaker 1: reach up and you have to jump up and grab 349 00:17:40,720 --> 00:17:42,439 Speaker 1: the field, gage right out and close the right all 350 00:17:42,440 --> 00:17:44,520 Speaker 1: in the one shot. And then you you'd straggle back 351 00:17:44,560 --> 00:17:46,040 Speaker 1: to the car and you'd be the fielder gates and 352 00:17:46,080 --> 00:17:47,359 Speaker 1: you jump up on the fender and you'd hand it 353 00:17:47,359 --> 00:17:49,480 Speaker 1: to him and you go wrong one and you have 354 00:17:49,520 --> 00:17:51,000 Speaker 1: to jump down again, you know, And it was just 355 00:17:51,040 --> 00:17:54,560 Speaker 1: that whole process of you know, and you'd come in 356 00:17:54,600 --> 00:17:56,359 Speaker 1: and you'd have like a skin knee and you'd be 357 00:17:56,359 --> 00:17:58,000 Speaker 1: bleeding a little bit when you were all done. And 358 00:17:58,000 --> 00:18:00,200 Speaker 1: what you're doing helping that fix the car, Well, try 359 00:18:00,240 --> 00:18:01,560 Speaker 1: not to have so much fun the next time. And 360 00:18:01,640 --> 00:18:05,520 Speaker 1: you know, they patch your pants. Remember patching your pants? Um, 361 00:18:05,840 --> 00:18:08,760 Speaker 1: and the things you remember as a kid. But that's 362 00:18:09,200 --> 00:18:12,959 Speaker 1: that's what makes cars so great, and that's it's the 363 00:18:13,000 --> 00:18:16,879 Speaker 1: memories of you know, if we can remember the dearly departed, 364 00:18:17,119 --> 00:18:19,560 Speaker 1: or spending time with those that are here and how 365 00:18:19,640 --> 00:18:21,520 Speaker 1: they how they helped evolve us and how they helped 366 00:18:21,560 --> 00:18:24,520 Speaker 1: us grow. Um, everybody's got a car story. I've got 367 00:18:24,560 --> 00:18:26,000 Speaker 1: way too many of them.

He did, he did. 431 00:22:23,520 --> 00:22:26,680 Speaker 1: Those are Suzu commercials. I think he appeared in one episode. 432 00:22:26,960 --> 00:22:29,080 Speaker 1: I think he appeared in one episode of Married with Children, 433 00:22:29,119 --> 00:22:33,520 Speaker 1: But that's a whole another story. Um, he did anyway. 434 00:22:33,560 --> 00:22:38,000 Speaker 1: I've even posted I've even posted this problem to Australian forms. 435 00:22:38,359 --> 00:22:43,320 Speaker 1: I'm looking we're zoos is actually selling vehicles.

So did 440 00:22:58,640 --> 00:23:00,680 Speaker 1: they clear the memory to turn in the light out? 441 00:23:01,040 --> 00:23:02,920 Speaker 1: That they did? They cleared the memory at the Chansfer 442 00:23:02,920 --> 00:23:05,440 Speaker 1: case they jumper pins one in twenty nine and thirty 443 00:23:05,440 --> 00:23:07,960 Speaker 1: to thirty six and they turned the switch on and 444 00:23:08,040 --> 00:23:10,080 Speaker 1: it it cleared the jump and it went through all 445 00:23:10,119 --> 00:23:13,560 Speaker 1: that nonsense. Ye okay, and the light and the light 446 00:23:13,680 --> 00:23:17,280 Speaker 1: was out, so you know they was out right. So 447 00:23:17,320 --> 00:23:20,240 Speaker 1: they realized at that point they've got a check. They've 448 00:23:20,240 --> 00:23:22,320 Speaker 1: got to go through them. They've got to go through 449 00:23:22,320 --> 00:23:26,600 Speaker 1: the checks for the actualator. Did they realize that has 450 00:23:26,600 --> 00:23:28,520 Speaker 1: it right? Has anybody done that? Or we are we 451 00:23:28,640 --> 00:23:31,640 Speaker 1: just assuming that? You know, I don't think I don't 452 00:23:31,680 --> 00:23:34,400 Speaker 1: think they have. UM. I think you know, the guy 453 00:23:34,520 --> 00:23:37,200 Speaker 1: just said, you're probably gonna end up bringing it back 454 00:23:37,400 --> 00:23:43,679 Speaker 1: more than once, okay, Um, he uh. He actually solved 455 00:23:43,720 --> 00:23:47,080 Speaker 1: a uh, solved the long term problem where it just 456 00:23:47,160 --> 00:23:51,159 Speaker 1: shuts off on hot water or hot weather. Okay, not 457 00:23:51,280 --> 00:23:53,480 Speaker 1: that we have that much of it here in North Dakota, 458 00:23:53,520 --> 00:23:56,240 Speaker 1: but occasionally it does get hot. Yeah, I think.

What the heck? 488 00:25:23,880 --> 00:25:26,480 Speaker 1: So you gotta start somewhere, and that's we're back in 489 00:25:26,680 --> 00:25:31,320 Speaker 1: nineteen seventy two. I became a mechanic. Listen, and I 490 00:25:31,359 --> 00:25:33,280 Speaker 1: think I think the aircraft mechanics have a lot more 491 00:25:33,280 --> 00:25:36,359 Speaker 1: pressure on them because, as my father always said, you know, 492 00:25:36,640 --> 00:25:39,280 Speaker 1: when the engine starts to run rough at ten thousand feet, 493 00:25:39,920 --> 00:25:41,800 Speaker 1: you can't pull over and park on a cloud to 494 00:25:41,920 --> 00:25:43,480 Speaker 1: check it out. So you've got to be sure you're 495 00:25:43,560 --> 00:25:46,880 Speaker 1: right every time, and when you go low. It may 496 00:25:46,960 --> 00:25:51,040 Speaker 1: get worse, right, yeah, it's who Usually it does. Um, 497 00:25:51,160 --> 00:25:53,800 Speaker 1: usually it does. So alright, brother, you send me an 498 00:25:53,800 --> 00:25:55,840 Speaker 1: email Ron at Card Doctor Show dot com. I'll get 499 00:25:55,840 --> 00:25:59,680 Speaker 1: some information to you. Yes, sir, I surely will. Thank 500 00:25:59,720 --> 00:26:01,520 Speaker 1: you for all your help. You're very welcome, Jeff, good 501 00:26:01,560 --> 00:26:03,639 Speaker 1: luck to you and keep us posted. Umy. As a 502 00:26:03,640 --> 00:26:06,840 Speaker 1: matter of fact, David Leisure, I'm gonna show you how 503 00:26:06,920 --> 00:26:08,560 Speaker 1: much the way. I don't know why I remember that. 504 00:26:08,640 --> 00:26:10,480 Speaker 1: You know, when I get old and I get when 505 00:26:10,760 --> 00:26:13,600 Speaker 1: I get like when I get older, ha ha, beat 506 00:26:13,640 --> 00:26:15,800 Speaker 1: you to it. You're old and crotchety, like you said, 507 00:26:15,800 --> 00:26:18,959 Speaker 1: when I get older and I and I get Alzheimer's 508 00:26:18,960 --> 00:26:21,480 Speaker 1: and I start spitting out things. Um, it's gonna be 509 00:26:21,560 --> 00:26:23,119 Speaker 1: weird what comes out of my head. But I remember 510 00:26:23,200 --> 00:26:25,560 Speaker 1: David Leisure. He was that episode of Married with Children 511 00:26:25,760 --> 00:26:28,199 Speaker 1: when Bud was on the dating game and he was 512 00:26:28,240 --> 00:26:30,600 Speaker 1: trying to Bud was trying to get a date, and 513 00:26:30,840 --> 00:26:33,199 Speaker 1: um David David Leisure was the host. And every time 514 00:26:33,240 --> 00:26:35,240 Speaker 1: I look at that commercial, I go, Joe is Suzu 515 00:26:35,600 --> 00:26:38,200 Speaker 1: no wonder The company fell apart eight five five five 516 00:26:38,280 --> 00:26:40,440 Speaker 1: six zero nine nine zero zero running nay of the 517 00:26:40,440 --> 00:26:49,919 Speaker 1: card doctor coming back. That's right. If you call and 518 00:26:49,920 --> 00:26:52,240 Speaker 1: we're not live, you can leave a message and we'll 519 00:26:52,240 --> 00:26:53,800 Speaker 1: call you back to get you on the air with 520 00:26:53,920 --> 00:26:59,440 Speaker 1: Ron zero nine nine zero zero. Speaking of Ron, there 521 00:26:59,440 --> 00:27:01,440 Speaker 1: he is. Oh, that must be me. Let's get on 522 00:27:01,520 --> 00:27:05,880 Speaker 1: them and talk to Ken across Wisconsin O three for Explorer. Hey, Ken, 523 00:27:05,880 --> 00:27:09,359 Speaker 1: how are you today? What's going on? We're doing good. 524 00:27:09,440 --> 00:27:12,320 Speaker 1: I've got a forward explored it. All of a sudden 525 00:27:12,320 --> 00:27:16,520 Speaker 1: it started just started missing. When you come to an idol, 526 00:27:17,119 --> 00:27:19,840 Speaker 1: when you come to a stop sign, missing really bad. 527 00:27:20,119 --> 00:27:23,359 Speaker 1: And I had an autopart store plugging a computer on 528 00:27:23,680 --> 00:27:27,760 Speaker 1: check it out and it says B one S one, 529 00:27:28,440 --> 00:27:32,760 Speaker 1: B two S one stuck lean. Alright, so so bank 530 00:27:32,800 --> 00:27:36,119 Speaker 1: one oxygen sensor stuck clean. Now, now let me just 531 00:27:36,160 --> 00:27:38,040 Speaker 1: black up a second. Which engine is? This is the 532 00:27:38,119 --> 00:27:39,760 Speaker 1: eight or the six? Is the four oh or the 533 00:27:39,760 --> 00:27:41,919 Speaker 1: four six six? This is the this is the this 534 00:27:42,000 --> 00:27:48,840 Speaker 1: is the the four oh six. So so so it's 535 00:27:48,800 --> 00:27:52,080 Speaker 1: set a fold code that that the bank one censor 536 00:27:52,200 --> 00:27:54,719 Speaker 1: one was stuck lean? Was it? Both banks are just 537 00:27:54,760 --> 00:27:58,760 Speaker 1: bank one? No, both of them, both of them are stuck. 538 00:27:58,800 --> 00:28:00,720 Speaker 1: That's why I'm actually calling you because it's hard to 539 00:28:00,720 --> 00:28:02,720 Speaker 1: believe that both of them would go at the same time. 540 00:28:04,160 --> 00:28:07,720 Speaker 1: You didn't change him, did you. I haven't changed nothing. 541 00:28:07,720 --> 00:28:11,800 Speaker 1: You don't change don't don't don't change them. Yeah, I 542 00:28:12,880 --> 00:28:14,440 Speaker 1: don't think this is I don't think these are beat 543 00:28:14,480 --> 00:28:17,919 Speaker 1: O twos. So and here's the here's the problem with 544 00:28:18,000 --> 00:28:19,600 Speaker 1: just Hey, this is what the code says. Now we've 545 00:28:19,640 --> 00:28:21,240 Speaker 1: got to start to think, right, we gotta use that 546 00:28:21,280 --> 00:28:23,520 Speaker 1: gray matter God gave us between our ears. And you're 547 00:28:23,520 --> 00:28:26,280 Speaker 1: absolutely right, it's sort of strange that both sensors would 548 00:28:26,280 --> 00:28:28,879 Speaker 1: fail at the same time. Like you're like, you're like, 549 00:28:28,920 --> 00:28:31,560 Speaker 1: you're stating and I agree with that. Um any other 550 00:28:31,560 --> 00:28:34,119 Speaker 1: problems with this car now you're saying it misses or 551 00:28:34,160 --> 00:28:38,560 Speaker 1: the idol is high. No, well it starts up in 552 00:28:38,720 --> 00:28:41,719 Speaker 1: idols and but didles higher than normal? All right? How 553 00:28:41,800 --> 00:28:47,120 Speaker 1: much higher? I'm on start up? Not? I mean, I 554 00:28:47,120 --> 00:28:50,200 Speaker 1: don't know how to explain that, but well, idols higher 555 00:28:51,080 --> 00:28:54,160 Speaker 1: and it's not super fast or anything, Okay, But I 556 00:28:54,160 --> 00:28:55,920 Speaker 1: mean if if, if, if, do you have attack in 557 00:28:55,960 --> 00:28:59,200 Speaker 1: this car? You have attack in this car? Right, So normally, 558 00:28:59,360 --> 00:29:01,320 Speaker 1: normally when it's starts up and it's warm, it probably 559 00:29:01,360 --> 00:29:05,400 Speaker 1: idles around seven and hunter rpm is it. I really 560 00:29:05,440 --> 00:29:07,880 Speaker 1: never noticed at the time. Okay, then how do you 561 00:29:07,880 --> 00:29:09,959 Speaker 1: know it's idling fast? And I'm not being a wise guy, 562 00:29:10,000 --> 00:29:12,640 Speaker 1: I'm asking that question. Oh yeah, then I guess, I 563 00:29:12,640 --> 00:29:14,520 Speaker 1: guess I can't say that to me. It just seems 564 00:29:14,560 --> 00:29:20,080 Speaker 1: like it. All right. So is a check engine light on? Yes? 565 00:29:20,240 --> 00:29:23,520 Speaker 1: All right. So if you were walking into a repair 566 00:29:23,560 --> 00:29:26,520 Speaker 1: shop not having any knowledge that anything was scanned you're 567 00:29:26,600 --> 00:29:28,479 Speaker 1: coming to them would be Hey, I've got this oh 568 00:29:28,600 --> 00:29:36,520 Speaker 1: three explorer outside and it does what It starts up 569 00:29:36,560 --> 00:29:39,000 Speaker 1: and back and back out of my driveway. I drive 570 00:29:39,080 --> 00:29:40,840 Speaker 1: it up to the stops first op signed to get 571 00:29:40,840 --> 00:29:45,800 Speaker 1: down to the highway, and Idle just drops and starts irregularly, 572 00:29:45,840 --> 00:29:47,720 Speaker 1: running the whole engine. You can see, you can feel 573 00:29:47,720 --> 00:29:52,680 Speaker 1: it missing and shaking kind of. So it runs rough, yes, 574 00:29:53,400 --> 00:29:55,480 Speaker 1: and then and then I can take off from that 575 00:29:55,560 --> 00:29:57,880 Speaker 1: stop sign. But the next time I have to come 576 00:29:57,920 --> 00:30:01,720 Speaker 1: to a stop, it seems to run fine, but until 577 00:30:01,760 --> 00:30:04,080 Speaker 1: I have to come to a stop, and then it 578 00:30:04,160 --> 00:30:07,640 Speaker 1: starts running irregularly. AI leaned irregularly and running rough. Okay. 579 00:30:07,680 --> 00:30:10,640 Speaker 1: So so that so the the the the symptom or 580 00:30:10,640 --> 00:30:15,400 Speaker 1: the condition here would be that it runs rough at idle. Yes, 581 00:30:15,600 --> 00:30:21,240 Speaker 1: all right, And they came up with both banks running lean. Yes, 582 00:30:21,320 --> 00:30:27,120 Speaker 1: And actually they also came up with it's a random 583 00:30:27,160 --> 00:30:32,720 Speaker 1: misfire code, you know, Yeah, that's what I'm looking for. 584 00:30:32,840 --> 00:30:34,600 Speaker 1: And I kind of I took that. I kind of 585 00:30:34,640 --> 00:30:38,720 Speaker 1: took that as maybe whatever's wrong with it, that's why 586 00:30:38,760 --> 00:30:41,000 Speaker 1: it's misfiring or whatever. But I don't know what what 587 00:30:41,320 --> 00:30:43,920 Speaker 1: piece or what it may be. Well, so far, what 588 00:30:44,000 --> 00:30:48,080 Speaker 1: you've given me, you've given me the conditions, but we 589 00:30:48,160 --> 00:30:50,600 Speaker 1: haven't narrowed it down to what's actually going on in 590 00:30:50,720 --> 00:30:55,480 Speaker 1: terms of the actual fault. So you know, it's it's 591 00:30:55,560 --> 00:31:00,840 Speaker 1: running rough, it's got a misfire to it, and it's 592 00:31:00,880 --> 00:31:05,680 Speaker 1: got a lean condition, all right. So you know, the 593 00:31:05,760 --> 00:31:07,240 Speaker 1: next thing I want to do is i'd want to 594 00:31:07,240 --> 00:31:09,280 Speaker 1: take it. I'd want to take a scan tool and 595 00:31:09,320 --> 00:31:11,920 Speaker 1: go look at fuel trim. You don't have the scan tool, right, 596 00:31:11,960 --> 00:31:16,239 Speaker 1: you went to the parts house. Okay, that's all right, 597 00:31:16,320 --> 00:31:19,160 Speaker 1: It happens, um, you know, it's it's just that the 598 00:31:19,160 --> 00:31:21,120 Speaker 1: tools only as good as in the hands of the 599 00:31:21,120 --> 00:31:23,200 Speaker 1: guy that's using it. So the next step is, I 600 00:31:23,240 --> 00:31:24,600 Speaker 1: know I got an engine that runs up. I know 601 00:31:24,640 --> 00:31:28,080 Speaker 1: I've got an engine that it's it appears to be 602 00:31:28,160 --> 00:31:31,000 Speaker 1: running lean. I want to verify it. I want to 603 00:31:31,040 --> 00:31:33,120 Speaker 1: go in and I want to look at fuel trim. 604 00:31:33,320 --> 00:31:35,400 Speaker 1: You you you've started more than a few fires up 605 00:31:35,400 --> 00:31:39,120 Speaker 1: there in Wisconsin right sitting in front, sitting in front 606 00:31:39,120 --> 00:31:43,200 Speaker 1: of the fireplace. Sometimes sometimes you get a lot of it. 607 00:31:43,280 --> 00:31:46,480 Speaker 1: We do a lot of it outdoor. Yeah that's true too, um. 608 00:31:46,560 --> 00:31:47,960 Speaker 1: But you you get when you get more than a 609 00:31:47,960 --> 00:31:50,120 Speaker 1: few fires where it's a nice even burn and it's 610 00:31:50,160 --> 00:31:51,880 Speaker 1: it's just got a nice warm glow to it and 611 00:31:51,880 --> 00:31:55,480 Speaker 1: it's not flaring up and it's not smoking and chuggling down. 612 00:31:55,520 --> 00:31:57,520 Speaker 1: That's a nice even burn. That's a good running engine. 613 00:31:58,080 --> 00:31:59,240 Speaker 1: And then if you want to go and kick it 614 00:31:59,320 --> 00:32:00,800 Speaker 1: up a little bit, you over there and fan the 615 00:32:00,800 --> 00:32:02,480 Speaker 1: fire and you put a lot of oxygen into it, 616 00:32:02,520 --> 00:32:04,080 Speaker 1: and all of a sudden it flares up more and 617 00:32:04,520 --> 00:32:06,240 Speaker 1: got a lot of oxygen in that fire. That's a 618 00:32:06,280 --> 00:32:09,280 Speaker 1: lean run an engine. Okay. And then every once in 619 00:32:09,320 --> 00:32:10,719 Speaker 1: a while your kids want you to go out there 620 00:32:10,720 --> 00:32:14,760 Speaker 1: and start that fire using some wet pine wood that's soaked, 621 00:32:14,800 --> 00:32:16,560 Speaker 1: and you kind of get it started, but it's smoky 622 00:32:16,600 --> 00:32:19,280 Speaker 1: and it stinks and it doesn't really run that rough 623 00:32:19,360 --> 00:32:21,479 Speaker 1: and run right, Well, and it sort of coughts, and 624 00:32:21,800 --> 00:32:23,760 Speaker 1: that's an engine that's running rich. It it can't have 625 00:32:23,800 --> 00:32:27,040 Speaker 1: complete combustion. Well, we can measure that with a scan tool. 626 00:32:27,240 --> 00:32:29,200 Speaker 1: We can go and look and see and and and 627 00:32:29,200 --> 00:32:30,440 Speaker 1: one of the things we can look at is we 628 00:32:30,440 --> 00:32:32,920 Speaker 1: can look at fuel trim as an actual number. And 629 00:32:32,960 --> 00:32:34,840 Speaker 1: it it kind of comes back to those days in 630 00:32:34,920 --> 00:32:37,120 Speaker 1: high school, you know math, when we took that with 631 00:32:37,160 --> 00:32:39,120 Speaker 1: the timeline and we said, you got you know, the 632 00:32:39,240 --> 00:32:41,080 Speaker 1: x and the y axis and the zero in the middle, 633 00:32:41,120 --> 00:32:43,480 Speaker 1: and we looked at the number line and anything to 634 00:32:43,520 --> 00:32:46,560 Speaker 1: the right of the number was was was considered positive, 635 00:32:46,560 --> 00:32:49,680 Speaker 1: and anything to the left of the zero was considered negative. Well, 636 00:32:49,680 --> 00:32:52,240 Speaker 1: in this case, our fuel trim is lean, we're expecting 637 00:32:52,280 --> 00:32:54,520 Speaker 1: to see a higher than normal number, higher than zero 638 00:32:54,600 --> 00:32:57,480 Speaker 1: number we're probably gonna see. I believe that code sets 639 00:32:57,480 --> 00:33:01,120 Speaker 1: a fuel trimp. So now why as the engine running lean? 640 00:33:02,240 --> 00:33:05,840 Speaker 1: And I'd be more inclined to think about vacuum leaks 641 00:33:06,880 --> 00:33:11,560 Speaker 1: in take ducks that have fallen off and possible other 642 00:33:11,640 --> 00:33:14,479 Speaker 1: issues that are creating a lean condition before I started 643 00:33:14,520 --> 00:33:20,720 Speaker 1: diving into an engine that's misfiring, a physical ignition misfire. 644 00:33:21,160 --> 00:33:23,320 Speaker 1: So we gotta get it into a shop. We gotta 645 00:33:23,360 --> 00:33:25,640 Speaker 1: find somebody that understands what fuel trim is and you 646 00:33:25,640 --> 00:33:27,360 Speaker 1: can use that in your conversation.

Volkswagen Parts Robert. Welcome back, sir, what's going on? 663 00:34:18,680 --> 00:34:21,600 Speaker 1: Welcome back? Yes? Uh, I just want to say thank 664 00:34:21,640 --> 00:34:24,439 Speaker 1: you so much for your show. I uh, I love 665 00:34:24,520 --> 00:34:28,799 Speaker 1: your honesty. You give me lots of ambition, and yes, 666 00:34:28,920 --> 00:34:31,680 Speaker 1: you do give us faith and hope. Well, I appreciate that, Bob, 667 00:34:31,800 --> 00:34:35,520 Speaker 1: I really do what's going on? You find transmission parts? Yes, 668 00:34:35,600 --> 00:34:38,719 Speaker 1: I did. I spent quite a bit of time. UH 669 00:34:38,880 --> 00:34:42,759 Speaker 1: found a complete overhaul set it's coming from the UK. 670 00:34:43,800 --> 00:34:47,600 Speaker 1: And I found a uh final drive gas cas set 671 00:34:47,680 --> 00:34:52,879 Speaker 1: coming from the Philippines. So yeah, My question is says, 672 00:34:52,960 --> 00:34:55,040 Speaker 1: let's say if you were working on a car and 673 00:34:55,120 --> 00:34:59,600 Speaker 1: you actually had ten minutes of actual work that you 674 00:34:59,680 --> 00:35:03,799 Speaker 1: spent about four hours doing research, and we justify the 675 00:35:03,840 --> 00:35:07,879 Speaker 1: bell been four hours doing research. Well, and I think 676 00:35:07,880 --> 00:35:10,640 Speaker 1: the conversation there becomes that when when somebody brings you 677 00:35:10,680 --> 00:35:14,319 Speaker 1: an odd bowl car and it happens, it's not just Volkswagen. 678 00:35:14,360 --> 00:35:17,279 Speaker 1: Somebody brought us a fifty six old Once they understood 679 00:35:17,280 --> 00:35:20,239 Speaker 1: research time got build at this and and parts time 680 00:35:20,280 --> 00:35:22,600 Speaker 1: got build at that. Um, you know, it becomes part 681 00:35:22,640 --> 00:35:24,640 Speaker 1: of the process. Time is time. You account for it 682 00:35:24,680 --> 00:35:26,600 Speaker 1: a little different, but you still gotta get paid for it. 683 00:35:26,920 --> 00:35:28,919 Speaker 1: But the valid question, and I like the way you're thinking, 684 00:35:28,920 --> 00:35:30,799 Speaker 1: good luck, Bob, let us know what happens. I'm not 685 00:35:30,880 --> 00:35:33,120 Speaker 1: an any of the car doctor. Good mechanics aren't expensive, 686 00:35:33,239 --> 00:35:34,520 Speaker 1: they're priceless. See it
