Do you 38 00:02:08,880 --> 00:02:10,760 Speaker 1: have the stick by the front door of the house 39 00:02:10,800 --> 00:02:12,440 Speaker 1: so when it snows you can find the front door? 40 00:02:14,440 --> 00:02:18,280 Speaker 1: I'm probably sure. Oh my god, you know, I'll never 41 00:02:18,400 --> 00:02:20,560 Speaker 1: forget and I tell this story and people really don't 42 00:02:20,600 --> 00:02:22,720 Speaker 1: believe me, and tell tell me if this is true? Aaron, 43 00:02:22,760 --> 00:02:25,519 Speaker 1: come on Europe in Minnesota. I was in Minnesota. It 44 00:02:25,600 --> 00:02:28,040 Speaker 1: must have been fifteen years ago, driving down south from 45 00:02:28,320 --> 00:02:30,560 Speaker 1: Minneapolis St. Paul to o Waitana. I used to do 46 00:02:30,639 --> 00:02:33,760 Speaker 1: consulting work for OTC Tools. And you know, we're driving 47 00:02:33,760 --> 00:02:36,280 Speaker 1: across the Great Plains where the Sioux Indians lived, right, 48 00:02:36,720 --> 00:02:38,760 Speaker 1: and I'm thinking, like, gee, look at all the empty space, 49 00:02:38,840 --> 00:02:40,400 Speaker 1: and we're a great place to live. And the guy 50 00:02:40,560 --> 00:02:42,080 Speaker 1: was driving me, he says, you see that stick by 51 00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:44,080 Speaker 1: the front door of that house. I went, yeah, because 52 00:02:44,080 --> 00:02:46,320 Speaker 1: I was noticing there's sticks on the front doors of 53 00:02:46,360 --> 00:02:49,600 Speaker 1: everybody's house, big giant sticks that stick out over the roof. 54 00:02:50,040 --> 00:02:51,919 Speaker 1: I said, yeah, he goes when it snows, that's so 55 00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:54,200 Speaker 1: they can find the front door in the house. Okay, well, 56 00:02:54,280 --> 00:02:56,840 Speaker 1: I guess I'm not living here. Um, so right, do 57 00:02:56,880 --> 00:03:00,440 Speaker 1: you guys get that much snow? Well, I haven't seen 58 00:03:00,520 --> 00:03:02,800 Speaker 1: the stick by the door, but every fire hydgeant has 59 00:03:02,840 --> 00:03:04,880 Speaker 1: a little pole sticking up so they can find the 60 00:03:04,919 --> 00:03:08,080 Speaker 1: fire hydrants. So it's the same thing that's for the dogs, 61 00:03:08,160 --> 00:03:11,920 Speaker 1: I guess. But just wow. So how can I help 62 00:03:11,960 --> 00:03:14,760 Speaker 1: you in your ford today? Sir? Alright? So, like you, 63 00:03:14,960 --> 00:03:18,480 Speaker 1: like you said, I got a pickup truck, and uh, 64 00:03:19,240 --> 00:03:21,760 Speaker 1: I have a battery that's about like a year year 65 00:03:21,800 --> 00:03:25,440 Speaker 1: and a half old, and of course on Thursday, it 66 00:03:25,639 --> 00:03:29,840 Speaker 1: was negative sixty one degrees and my car wouldn't my 67 00:03:29,919 --> 00:03:34,240 Speaker 1: truck wouldn't start. So I put the put a battery 68 00:03:34,320 --> 00:03:35,720 Speaker 1: charger on it, just to kind of give it a 69 00:03:35,760 --> 00:03:38,920 Speaker 1: little bit of a little boost, you know, even though 70 00:03:38,960 --> 00:03:41,040 Speaker 1: it's just a year, year and a half old. But 71 00:03:41,200 --> 00:03:43,800 Speaker 1: this is what happened. So I accidentally left it on 72 00:03:44,240 --> 00:03:48,520 Speaker 1: the ten amp charge overnight and I came back the 73 00:03:48,640 --> 00:03:52,280 Speaker 1: next morning and the battery was hissing. So I took 74 00:03:52,320 --> 00:03:55,280 Speaker 1: off the battery charger. And I never do that, but 75 00:03:55,760 --> 00:03:57,760 Speaker 1: I did that this time on accident, and the battery 76 00:03:57,800 --> 00:03:59,520 Speaker 1: was hissing. So I guess my question to you is 77 00:03:59,600 --> 00:04:03,400 Speaker 1: this have have I just shortened the battery life? Or 78 00:04:03,680 --> 00:04:05,520 Speaker 1: is this something that I just shouldn't drive on anymore 79 00:04:05,520 --> 00:04:08,880 Speaker 1: and should get a new battery. You know, you didn't 80 00:04:08,880 --> 00:04:12,960 Speaker 1: do the battery any good, but you know she just 81 00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:15,000 Speaker 1: shortened she did you get rid of the battery. Here's 82 00:04:15,120 --> 00:04:18,320 Speaker 1: here's the problem. You know, minus sixty one. I don't 83 00:04:18,320 --> 00:04:22,200 Speaker 1: think anything works right, all right? You know, it's that's 84 00:04:22,279 --> 00:04:26,280 Speaker 1: just that's just such an extreme, I would definitely have 85 00:04:26,400 --> 00:04:31,360 Speaker 1: the battery charged correctly and then properly tested to a 86 00:04:31,480 --> 00:04:36,480 Speaker 1: load test on it. Does the battery have removable caps? Yep? 87 00:04:36,839 --> 00:04:39,200 Speaker 1: So I would you know, see if your mechanic has 88 00:04:39,680 --> 00:04:41,520 Speaker 1: something A lot of guys don't have any more, or 89 00:04:41,640 --> 00:04:45,400 Speaker 1: hydrometer and measure the specific gravity of each cell and 90 00:04:45,520 --> 00:04:48,000 Speaker 1: see if any one particular cell is higher or lower 91 00:04:48,040 --> 00:04:50,440 Speaker 1: than the other. And also is there any is there 92 00:04:50,480 --> 00:04:53,200 Speaker 1: any particulate floating around in the BA any of the 93 00:04:53,279 --> 00:04:56,560 Speaker 1: cells such as that as you overcharged it, you caused 94 00:04:56,600 --> 00:04:58,720 Speaker 1: it to break down and you know, boil over in 95 00:04:58,760 --> 00:05:02,800 Speaker 1: a sense U, I don't know, you know, it's it's 96 00:05:02,839 --> 00:05:04,400 Speaker 1: sort of an argument. You can have two ways in 97 00:05:04,440 --> 00:05:06,520 Speaker 1: your head. If you don't replace the battery and the 98 00:05:06,600 --> 00:05:08,880 Speaker 1: next time the truck doesn't start because it's sixty one 99 00:05:08,960 --> 00:05:11,840 Speaker 1: below or thirty below or whatever the ridiculous number is, 100 00:05:12,200 --> 00:05:14,760 Speaker 1: you're gonna go. You're gonna be like nuts, I should 101 00:05:14,760 --> 00:05:17,360 Speaker 1: have brought another battery. And then again you might buy 102 00:05:17,360 --> 00:05:20,360 Speaker 1: another battery and it still won't start because it's thirty below. 103 00:05:22,040 --> 00:05:27,760 Speaker 1: You know it's so, but it's not anything definitely, it's 104 00:05:27,760 --> 00:05:30,520 Speaker 1: not anything dangerous, Right's not going to explode anything. The 105 00:05:30,560 --> 00:05:32,720 Speaker 1: battery is not going to explode um. You know, It's 106 00:05:32,720 --> 00:05:35,400 Speaker 1: not something I would do long term. Obviously you shortened 107 00:05:35,440 --> 00:05:38,200 Speaker 1: its life a little bit. Uh, there are some safeguards 108 00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:40,040 Speaker 1: built in, and you know you heard it hissing, and 109 00:05:40,200 --> 00:05:43,000 Speaker 1: obviously you let it cool down before you started, you know, 110 00:05:43,279 --> 00:05:45,760 Speaker 1: moving it and and so forth. But I think what 111 00:05:45,880 --> 00:05:47,880 Speaker 1: you'll find is if you just charge the battery up, 112 00:05:48,160 --> 00:05:50,800 Speaker 1: if it passes a load test, and you know, tell 113 00:05:50,839 --> 00:05:52,800 Speaker 1: your mechanic to maybe abuse it a little bit, hit 114 00:05:52,839 --> 00:05:54,320 Speaker 1: it with a little bit of a heavier load test, 115 00:05:54,360 --> 00:05:56,200 Speaker 1: how does it hold up? And then look at the 116 00:05:56,279 --> 00:05:58,760 Speaker 1: recharge rate if you drive the vehicle around, how does 117 00:05:58,800 --> 00:06:01,720 Speaker 1: the charging system react? You know, and bring it back 118 00:06:01,760 --> 00:06:03,680 Speaker 1: in a half hour and load test the battery again 119 00:06:03,720 --> 00:06:07,040 Speaker 1: if you really want to be you know, overcautious and 120 00:06:07,360 --> 00:06:08,880 Speaker 1: you know, just see what does it do. And as 121 00:06:08,920 --> 00:06:11,320 Speaker 1: long as it passes that load test, I think you're fun. 122 00:06:11,720 --> 00:06:13,640 Speaker 1: I really do. It's an older vehicle. There's not a 123 00:06:13,720 --> 00:06:16,640 Speaker 1: lot of electronics on it. It's a ninety two thousand, 124 00:06:16,720 --> 00:06:18,839 Speaker 1: two two thousand and twelve. It's you know, it's twenty 125 00:06:18,880 --> 00:06:21,840 Speaker 1: five going on twenty seven years old. It's uh, you know, 126 00:06:22,400 --> 00:06:25,480 Speaker 1: electricity was a word back then. Now it's electronic, so 127 00:06:25,760 --> 00:06:28,520 Speaker 1: it's a it's a very different I've been fortunate, so 128 00:06:28,800 --> 00:06:32,520 Speaker 1: oh yeah, hey listen, it's you know, what's simpler is better? Uh? 129 00:06:32,920 --> 00:06:35,200 Speaker 1: You know the problem, the problem with that vehicle is 130 00:06:35,279 --> 00:06:36,880 Speaker 1: just sooner or later you're gonna run out of getting 131 00:06:36,920 --> 00:06:38,800 Speaker 1: parts for it, and you're gonna have to upgrade and 132 00:06:39,279 --> 00:06:41,839 Speaker 1: you know, make some changes. It's like I was thinking 133 00:06:41,920 --> 00:06:44,520 Speaker 1: the other day, my nineties seven Rangers got two hundred 134 00:06:44,560 --> 00:06:47,440 Speaker 1: fifteen thousand on it, and oh you know what I'm getting? 135 00:06:47,520 --> 00:06:50,360 Speaker 1: Am I getting tired of the vehicle? I think about parts? 136 00:06:50,520 --> 00:06:52,320 Speaker 1: Do I want to go out and start putting some 137 00:06:53,400 --> 00:06:56,000 Speaker 1: you know, some some different style fuel injection kits in 138 00:06:56,080 --> 00:06:57,880 Speaker 1: it or a different engine? Do I want to start 139 00:06:57,920 --> 00:06:59,400 Speaker 1: playing with this vehicle? Do I want to go out 140 00:06:59,440 --> 00:07:02,360 Speaker 1: and buy another one? I h you know, parts become 141 00:07:02,400 --> 00:07:05,040 Speaker 1: a problem, they really do. That's the That's that's the 142 00:07:05,160 --> 00:07:07,080 Speaker 1: secret of all of this. It's like Henry Ford said, 143 00:07:07,080 --> 00:07:08,839 Speaker 1: I'll give you the car for free, because three years 144 00:07:08,960 --> 00:07:11,440 Speaker 1: later the parts are falling off. The things so fish 145 00:07:11,480 --> 00:07:13,120 Speaker 1: you need a wheelbarrel behind to pick them up. But 146 00:07:13,160 --> 00:07:14,360 Speaker 1: I'm going to be the guy to sell them to you. 147 00:07:14,480 --> 00:07:17,640 Speaker 1: So and that's where the money is. Um so, absolutely 148 00:07:17,920 --> 00:07:20,600 Speaker 1: absolutely listen. Are you stay warm up there? And uh, 149 00:07:20,880 --> 00:07:23,600 Speaker 1: I hope the weather improves for you. Hey. Thanks, you 150 00:07:23,680 --> 00:07:25,520 Speaker 1: have a good day. You're very welcome, sir. Take good care. 151 00:07:25,640 --> 00:07:28,200 Speaker 1: Let's get over to Jess in Maine, fifteen Chevy Silverado. 152 00:07:28,240 --> 00:07:30,240 Speaker 1: What's going on here, Jess? Welcome to the car doctor. 153 00:07:30,240 --> 00:07:33,000 Speaker 1: How can I help? Hey, Ron? Um So, it's a 154 00:07:33,040 --> 00:07:37,120 Speaker 1: little bit hard to explain my situation going on. Um, 155 00:07:37,160 --> 00:07:39,960 Speaker 1: it's happened about three times now. We do have some 156 00:07:40,080 --> 00:07:42,400 Speaker 1: cold weather up here and some snow, but not nearly 157 00:07:42,440 --> 00:07:45,000 Speaker 1: as bad. I've I've noticed that everybody else has something 158 00:07:45,040 --> 00:07:48,320 Speaker 1: I've noticed that's been happening. Though. I go either up 159 00:07:48,360 --> 00:07:50,960 Speaker 1: a little hill or try to hit the accelerator in 160 00:07:50,960 --> 00:07:55,880 Speaker 1: an intersection, and my truck almost completely powers down, almost 161 00:07:56,280 --> 00:07:59,200 Speaker 1: seems like it's stalling. The lights turn off on the 162 00:07:59,280 --> 00:08:01,600 Speaker 1: inside and the side of the truck. And one thing 163 00:08:01,640 --> 00:08:05,720 Speaker 1: I've noticed, for a split second, the stability track, Uh 164 00:08:05,840 --> 00:08:09,920 Speaker 1: comes on on the control panel. Uh, but that's it 165 00:08:10,080 --> 00:08:13,480 Speaker 1: and then it right back on. But it's happened three 166 00:08:13,560 --> 00:08:16,240 Speaker 1: or four times. Now, Okay, you got a pencil, piece 167 00:08:16,280 --> 00:08:20,280 Speaker 1: of paper. I do, okay, get ahold of GM document 168 00:08:20,720 --> 00:08:28,360 Speaker 1: three to seven seven seven four one seventy one. It's 169 00:08:28,440 --> 00:08:30,960 Speaker 1: probably out there in the form of a bulletin. But 170 00:08:31,120 --> 00:08:32,839 Speaker 1: what I read, what I remember about, I think the 171 00:08:32,880 --> 00:08:38,400 Speaker 1: bulletin might be eighteen Let me think eighteen n A 172 00:08:38,720 --> 00:08:42,079 Speaker 1: one something like that. You're looking for a bullet that 173 00:08:42,200 --> 00:08:46,400 Speaker 1: talks about grounds G two ten and G two eighteen. 174 00:08:47,760 --> 00:08:51,360 Speaker 1: All right, very specifically those two grounds. GM has some 175 00:08:51,480 --> 00:08:54,679 Speaker 1: known problems with them, affecting everything from power steering to 176 00:08:54,920 --> 00:08:58,079 Speaker 1: overall vehicle operation. Because I think what you're dealing with 177 00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:02,559 Speaker 1: is a ground issue. Uh. From my seat here, you're 178 00:09:02,600 --> 00:09:06,319 Speaker 1: dealing with something isn't making good, clean positive contact. The 179 00:09:06,440 --> 00:09:08,520 Speaker 1: other the other perspective of the other thing you can 180 00:09:08,600 --> 00:09:12,599 Speaker 1: do is just to have a good mechanic, which I 181 00:09:12,679 --> 00:09:15,040 Speaker 1: say it like that because I mean it. You know, 182 00:09:15,200 --> 00:09:16,960 Speaker 1: he's gotta be able to read a wiring diagram. He's 183 00:09:17,000 --> 00:09:19,679 Speaker 1: gotta look at a wiring diamond. Go okay, here's all 184 00:09:19,760 --> 00:09:22,800 Speaker 1: the grounds, here's all the power feeds coming into the vehicle. 185 00:09:22,880 --> 00:09:25,480 Speaker 1: And I'm not saying take the wiring harness apart, but 186 00:09:25,920 --> 00:09:29,520 Speaker 1: understand where the power feeds come in. What they feed. 187 00:09:30,320 --> 00:09:33,520 Speaker 1: Where the grounds are? Are they dirty, corroded? Broken? Missing? 188 00:09:33,640 --> 00:09:35,880 Speaker 1: I know it's only four years old, but you're still 189 00:09:35,960 --> 00:09:40,520 Speaker 1: having the issue. And Maine isn't known for being cautious 190 00:09:40,880 --> 00:09:44,840 Speaker 1: with putting down road salt and all the other things. Right, 191 00:09:44,960 --> 00:09:48,400 Speaker 1: you know, it's it's it's the land of white winter powder. Um, 192 00:09:49,080 --> 00:09:51,480 Speaker 1: you know it's it's it's it gets ugly up there. 193 00:09:51,480 --> 00:09:54,000 Speaker 1: I still remember the news story from four or five 194 00:09:54,080 --> 00:09:56,800 Speaker 1: years ago about the bridge and Bath, Maine that was 195 00:09:56,920 --> 00:09:59,880 Speaker 1: corroded because of all the road salt and calcium chloride 196 00:09:59,880 --> 00:10:01,280 Speaker 1: they put down on the road. They actually had to 197 00:10:01,320 --> 00:10:03,959 Speaker 1: rebuild the bridge or something like that. I never forget. Yeah, 198 00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:05,760 Speaker 1: and I'll never forget that story. I was like, wow, 199 00:10:06,120 --> 00:10:09,520 Speaker 1: talk about corrosive material. So you know, I want to 200 00:10:09,559 --> 00:10:13,439 Speaker 1: go specifically after those two grounds, but overall vehicle grounds. 201 00:10:13,800 --> 00:10:17,040 Speaker 1: There's there's a there's a test procedure mechanics. Do voltage 202 00:10:17,080 --> 00:10:20,240 Speaker 1: drop I would voltage drop grounds on the vehicle. I 203 00:10:20,280 --> 00:10:23,439 Speaker 1: would voltage drop power feeds on the vehicle. You know, 204 00:10:23,559 --> 00:10:26,679 Speaker 1: are we missing something? Are we losing something? That being 205 00:10:27,080 --> 00:10:32,079 Speaker 1: that being said, when this happens, by chance, does the 206 00:10:32,200 --> 00:10:36,400 Speaker 1: clock reset, does the radio reset? Any change in vehicle 207 00:10:36,440 --> 00:10:40,640 Speaker 1: operating characteristics after it happens. No, it doesn't. That's one 208 00:10:40,640 --> 00:10:42,719 Speaker 1: thing I've noticed because I had read up on that. 209 00:10:43,040 --> 00:10:46,160 Speaker 1: You know, the radio presets go away and the clock resets, 210 00:10:46,200 --> 00:10:48,199 Speaker 1: but nope, it goes completely back to normal. It's almost 211 00:10:48,240 --> 00:10:50,760 Speaker 1: for a split second that this happens, but it almost 212 00:10:50,800 --> 00:10:54,000 Speaker 1: completely powers down, almost like the truck's stalling. Um. But 213 00:10:54,200 --> 00:10:56,000 Speaker 1: all the lights turn off, and like I said, the 214 00:10:56,160 --> 00:10:59,520 Speaker 1: the stability track um signal comes on. I don't know 215 00:10:59,600 --> 00:11:01,079 Speaker 1: why that's happening either. I don't know if it's a 216 00:11:01,120 --> 00:11:03,640 Speaker 1: power issue. Well I think I think this is going 217 00:11:03,679 --> 00:11:07,440 Speaker 1: to be a voltage problem, ground related or something electrical. 218 00:11:07,520 --> 00:11:09,040 Speaker 1: So here's and here's the other thing you can do. 219 00:11:09,360 --> 00:11:11,600 Speaker 1: You've got a power outlet in the truck, a cigarette 220 00:11:11,640 --> 00:11:15,560 Speaker 1: lighter or a power outlet I do. Okay, So somewhere 221 00:11:15,640 --> 00:11:18,679 Speaker 1: on Amazon or your local autoparts store, somebody's gonna make 222 00:11:18,800 --> 00:11:21,599 Speaker 1: a device that will plug into the cigarette lighter that 223 00:11:21,640 --> 00:11:25,520 Speaker 1: will read voltage. All right, UM, it would be great 224 00:11:25,600 --> 00:11:27,559 Speaker 1: if you could tell us that, hey, you know, my 225 00:11:27,640 --> 00:11:30,839 Speaker 1: truck lost power. This happened. That happened, And by the way, 226 00:11:30,880 --> 00:11:33,520 Speaker 1: I saw the charging system voltage go from fourteen point 227 00:11:33,600 --> 00:11:37,480 Speaker 1: two to twelve and a half. That tells us something. 228 00:11:38,160 --> 00:11:40,160 Speaker 1: So can I ask you another thing? Right, I'm sure 229 00:11:40,240 --> 00:11:42,720 Speaker 1: this is all connected. Um, but I have noticed when 230 00:11:42,760 --> 00:11:45,079 Speaker 1: I've been driving, and usually when my my four wheel 231 00:11:45,120 --> 00:11:46,720 Speaker 1: drive is on. I'm not sure if that's connected either, 232 00:11:46,800 --> 00:11:49,400 Speaker 1: but the lights start to flicker. I'll go from high 233 00:11:49,440 --> 00:11:52,320 Speaker 1: beam to low beam and the lights will flicker. Um, 234 00:11:52,679 --> 00:11:54,760 Speaker 1: I've been noticing or if I go to use my 235 00:11:54,800 --> 00:11:57,199 Speaker 1: turn signal, the lights are flickering again. And he's usually 236 00:11:57,480 --> 00:12:00,560 Speaker 1: not the inside lights, it's the it's the actual outside. Yeah, 237 00:12:00,679 --> 00:12:04,040 Speaker 1: you're you're you're you're suffering a ground issue. It just 238 00:12:04,200 --> 00:12:07,400 Speaker 1: sounds like it sounds like, um, you know, you ever 239 00:12:07,480 --> 00:12:09,480 Speaker 1: been in a house with older wiring and they've got 240 00:12:09,520 --> 00:12:11,719 Speaker 1: so many devices turned on that the lights start to 241 00:12:11,760 --> 00:12:14,599 Speaker 1: dim or flicker or go brown, and uh, you know, 242 00:12:14,720 --> 00:12:18,520 Speaker 1: the electricity is the brightness of the lamps are started 243 00:12:18,559 --> 00:12:21,439 Speaker 1: to be affected. That That's exactly what it sounds like 244 00:12:21,520 --> 00:12:24,160 Speaker 1: you've got going on here with this house, with this car. 245 00:12:24,440 --> 00:12:27,360 Speaker 1: So you know, just just I think we want to 246 00:12:27,360 --> 00:12:30,160 Speaker 1: start chasing grounds. See if you can find that document. 247 00:12:30,280 --> 00:12:32,160 Speaker 1: If not, ask your mechanic if he's got any kind 248 00:12:32,160 --> 00:12:36,359 Speaker 1: of information system electronic information. If he starts looking through bulletins, 249 00:12:36,640 --> 00:12:38,760 Speaker 1: tell him to take this from the angle of electrical 250 00:12:39,080 --> 00:12:42,160 Speaker 1: grounds G two ten grounds G two eighteen. And then 251 00:12:42,320 --> 00:12:45,319 Speaker 1: last thing, it wouldn't hurt for him to take a 252 00:12:45,520 --> 00:12:48,240 Speaker 1: look at the onboard computer, look at fuel trim, look 253 00:12:48,240 --> 00:12:50,839 Speaker 1: at some of the variable parameters, look to see what 254 00:12:51,120 --> 00:12:53,839 Speaker 1: data is, take a snapshot of it, stick it in 255 00:12:53,920 --> 00:12:57,800 Speaker 1: your file. After the problem happens, take another snapshot as 256 00:12:57,880 --> 00:13:01,000 Speaker 1: fast as possible after the incident. Does does any of 257 00:13:01,080 --> 00:13:04,040 Speaker 1: that information change? Showing the PCM is going through a 258 00:13:04,160 --> 00:13:08,840 Speaker 1: reset and it's it's adaptives or it's it's electronic adjustments 259 00:13:08,920 --> 00:13:11,599 Speaker 1: are changing as well. That tells us the PCM is 260 00:13:11,679 --> 00:13:14,079 Speaker 1: losing power and memory and it's going into limp in 261 00:13:14,120 --> 00:13:16,240 Speaker 1: which is short of what it sounds like you're suffering 262 00:13:16,280 --> 00:13:18,319 Speaker 1: as well. So a couple of ways to attack this. 263 00:13:18,760 --> 00:13:20,640 Speaker 1: They've just got to think a little bit outside the box. 264 00:13:20,720 --> 00:13:24,240 Speaker 1: All right, I appreciate it. Very welcome. You're very welcome. 265 00:13:24,240 --> 00:13:25,560 Speaker 1: You have any problems, you give us a call back. 266 00:13:25,600 --> 00:13:27,640 Speaker 1: We're here for you. Good luck. Just I'm runing aning 267 00:13:27,640 --> 00:13:29,800 Speaker 1: of the car. Doctor eight five five five zero nine 268 00:13:30,080 --> 00:13:32,480 Speaker 1: zero zero will return right after this. Don't go away 269 00:13:40,200 --> 00:13:42,640 Speaker 1: for the best in car advice. Give Ron a call 270 00:13:42,840 --> 00:13:50,000 Speaker 1: eight five five five zero zero zero. Now back to Ron. Michael, East, Hartford, Connecticut, 271 00:13:50,040 --> 00:13:52,040 Speaker 1: OH one Toyota Camera Europe. Next with the car doctor. 272 00:13:52,040 --> 00:13:58,760 Speaker 1: How can I help, Sir Michael? Michael going once, Michael 273 00:13:58,800 --> 00:14:02,920 Speaker 1: going twice? No, Michael, Okay, Um, let's get over and 274 00:14:03,000 --> 00:14:06,160 Speaker 1: talk to Terry and Georgia two thousand three Chevy S ten. 275 00:14:06,920 --> 00:14:10,360 Speaker 1: Terry are there? Yeah, there you go, Terry, You're there. Hooray. 276 00:14:10,400 --> 00:14:12,920 Speaker 1: We gotta winner. Uh maybe the cold got Michael up 277 00:14:12,920 --> 00:14:14,959 Speaker 1: in Connecticut. So what's going on? Terry? How can I help? 278 00:14:16,559 --> 00:14:18,880 Speaker 1: I've got a two thous and three s t n 279 00:14:18,960 --> 00:14:22,480 Speaker 1: z R two four wood drive. I replaced the calipers 280 00:14:22,560 --> 00:14:25,920 Speaker 1: on the rear. It has the anlock and uh. Once 281 00:14:26,000 --> 00:14:28,400 Speaker 1: I replaced the calipers, I was never able to get 282 00:14:29,000 --> 00:14:33,720 Speaker 1: fluid back to the rear again. Um. Being a mechanical 283 00:14:33,720 --> 00:14:37,040 Speaker 1: all my life belied breaks every only everything. But I'm 284 00:14:37,080 --> 00:14:39,680 Speaker 1: not really I'm not real familiar with the analock stuff. 285 00:14:40,360 --> 00:14:42,200 Speaker 1: And everything I've read said it has to go to 286 00:14:42,240 --> 00:14:44,960 Speaker 1: a diggle ship. Is the anything I can do from home? Well, 287 00:14:45,440 --> 00:14:48,360 Speaker 1: let's let's hold up here a second. Um, So I'm 288 00:14:48,360 --> 00:14:52,400 Speaker 1: gonna ask the stupid questions. Don't take insult, okay, because 289 00:14:52,480 --> 00:14:54,640 Speaker 1: I saw I've seen this before, and it's just it 290 00:14:54,720 --> 00:14:57,440 Speaker 1: happens to the best of us. The bleeders are up 291 00:14:57,480 --> 00:15:00,520 Speaker 1: top right on the new calipers. We don't have them. 292 00:15:01,240 --> 00:15:03,400 Speaker 1: I do. They're not They're not on the wrong side. Yeah, 293 00:15:03,440 --> 00:15:05,160 Speaker 1: I've you know, and I've seen it. It's the first 294 00:15:05,240 --> 00:15:08,520 Speaker 1: question I've learned to ask over the years. Um, because 295 00:15:08,680 --> 00:15:11,120 Speaker 1: I've had people look at me and go, there's a difference, 296 00:15:11,160 --> 00:15:13,880 Speaker 1: and I went, oh boy, um, oh yeah, oh yeah. 297 00:15:14,560 --> 00:15:15,840 Speaker 1: I had one guy tell me he thought that was 298 00:15:15,920 --> 00:15:17,880 Speaker 1: the drain valve. I went and, uh put the wrench 299 00:15:17,920 --> 00:15:21,880 Speaker 1: down step away from the car. Um. So you know, 300 00:15:22,320 --> 00:15:24,720 Speaker 1: how are you bleeding it? Or is somebody in the 301 00:15:24,840 --> 00:15:27,320 Speaker 1: vehicle and you're and they're stroking it and then you 302 00:15:27,440 --> 00:15:31,440 Speaker 1: open the bleeder and still nothing comes out. Yeah, traditional, Okay, 303 00:15:31,720 --> 00:15:36,640 Speaker 1: So why did you change the calipers? They were seized? Uh? Yeah, 304 00:15:36,680 --> 00:15:40,080 Speaker 1: I had one binding Uh the lift reaver was binding 305 00:15:40,160 --> 00:15:43,560 Speaker 1: and and UH burned the breaks up on the Okay. 306 00:15:44,000 --> 00:15:46,320 Speaker 1: So so I went ahead and was in replaced both 307 00:15:46,400 --> 00:15:51,440 Speaker 1: calipers when he hit and played, replaced the desk and 308 00:15:51,840 --> 00:15:54,240 Speaker 1: breaks and everything right, A lot of fluid come out 309 00:15:54,240 --> 00:15:57,280 Speaker 1: when you change the caliper. Well, I can say that 310 00:15:57,360 --> 00:16:01,520 Speaker 1: took the caliper often uh, which down with turn the 311 00:16:01,640 --> 00:16:06,000 Speaker 1: cords the end because the cords are ridiculous and then 312 00:16:06,080 --> 00:16:09,920 Speaker 1: when I come back, it obviously had drained all over that. Okay, 313 00:16:10,200 --> 00:16:13,720 Speaker 1: that's what happened. Um, that's what happened usually because we'll 314 00:16:13,800 --> 00:16:15,640 Speaker 1: we'll change them in the shop. We'll just go you know, 315 00:16:15,760 --> 00:16:17,400 Speaker 1: one on, one off, and we don't lose a lot 316 00:16:17,440 --> 00:16:20,080 Speaker 1: of fluid. So yeah, and had I done that, I 317 00:16:20,120 --> 00:16:23,480 Speaker 1: probably wouldn't run into this problem, right, So what you 318 00:16:23,640 --> 00:16:25,560 Speaker 1: can try? The reason they're saying it's got to go 319 00:16:25,600 --> 00:16:28,600 Speaker 1: to a dealer is it because in some situations you 320 00:16:28,720 --> 00:16:31,560 Speaker 1: need a scan tool. Um, it's either you need a 321 00:16:31,600 --> 00:16:34,720 Speaker 1: scan tool to do what we call an a BS bleed. 322 00:16:35,280 --> 00:16:37,720 Speaker 1: A scan tool has the ability to activate the control 323 00:16:37,800 --> 00:16:42,080 Speaker 1: solnoids in the antelo control unit and and get it 324 00:16:42,200 --> 00:16:44,600 Speaker 1: to move air out of the system and then you 325 00:16:44,640 --> 00:16:47,840 Speaker 1: can do a traditional bleed. As you say, all right, 326 00:16:48,240 --> 00:16:50,520 Speaker 1: so let's let's just jump ahead a little bit. Have 327 00:16:50,680 --> 00:16:54,960 Speaker 1: you tried bleeding the master just you do you have? 328 00:16:55,680 --> 00:16:57,680 Speaker 1: Can you went back and started at the front and 329 00:16:57,720 --> 00:17:00,240 Speaker 1: went towards the rear, right, you know. And then and 330 00:17:00,320 --> 00:17:03,200 Speaker 1: then then turned around and went back to my furthest 331 00:17:03,240 --> 00:17:06,520 Speaker 1: point found the master cylinder and started over, all right, um, 332 00:17:06,720 --> 00:17:08,639 Speaker 1: do you have you can get Obviously you're gonna tell 333 00:17:08,680 --> 00:17:10,920 Speaker 1: me you can get fluid out of the master, right 334 00:17:11,480 --> 00:17:14,760 Speaker 1: you get you get fluid to the A B S 335 00:17:14,800 --> 00:17:20,399 Speaker 1: control unit. All right, so we can't we've we've obviously 336 00:17:20,480 --> 00:17:22,280 Speaker 1: got the A B S unit is so dry we 337 00:17:22,359 --> 00:17:27,240 Speaker 1: can't get prime in there. Years ago, all right, years ago, 338 00:17:27,359 --> 00:17:30,359 Speaker 1: when dirt was invented and I was a young mechanic, um, 339 00:17:30,560 --> 00:17:32,359 Speaker 1: there was a there was a product you could get 340 00:17:32,400 --> 00:17:35,280 Speaker 1: from the parts houses. It looked like a giant hypodermic needle. 341 00:17:36,400 --> 00:17:39,560 Speaker 1: Have you are you familiar with this? Um? You know? 342 00:17:39,640 --> 00:17:40,960 Speaker 1: If you have, if you can get your hands on, 343 00:17:41,040 --> 00:17:43,679 Speaker 1: one of those, which you could try is open up 344 00:17:43,840 --> 00:17:48,960 Speaker 1: the furthest bleeder and fill that hypodermic with break fluid 345 00:17:49,520 --> 00:17:54,679 Speaker 1: and try and back bleed so that if somebody's watching 346 00:17:54,720 --> 00:17:57,480 Speaker 1: it the master, if they see fluid coming up and 347 00:17:57,640 --> 00:18:01,320 Speaker 1: air bubbles coming out, you might be able to fill 348 00:18:01,400 --> 00:18:03,280 Speaker 1: the system that way, at least to the point that 349 00:18:03,400 --> 00:18:05,760 Speaker 1: once the A B S unit picks up enough fluid. 350 00:18:06,160 --> 00:18:08,320 Speaker 1: You can then go through and do a manual bleed. 351 00:18:08,480 --> 00:18:11,960 Speaker 1: You got an Riley order Parts down by you check 352 00:18:12,040 --> 00:18:13,640 Speaker 1: in with the folks in our Riley Orto parts. Ask 353 00:18:13,720 --> 00:18:17,960 Speaker 1: me if they have any break fluid hypodermic syringe bleaders. 354 00:18:18,320 --> 00:18:21,040 Speaker 1: Very old school, but they're out there and that will 355 00:18:21,080 --> 00:18:22,320 Speaker 1: do it for you. Good luck to here. Let me 356 00:18:22,359 --> 00:18:23,880 Speaker 1: know if I can do anything else. I'm run nating 357 00:18:23,880 --> 00:18:40,760 Speaker 1: the car doctor. We're coming back right after this. Welcome back. 358 00:18:40,800 --> 00:18:44,639 Speaker 1: We're nating the car doctor. Zero zero zero.

Let's see where should we go. 366 00:19:05,600 --> 00:19:09,920 Speaker 1: Let's try Michael in Connecticut again. Michael, are you there, sir? Yes, sir, okay, pick, 367 00:19:10,160 --> 00:19:12,520 Speaker 1: thanks for talking to me. You're very welcome, sir. Listen, 368 00:19:12,560 --> 00:19:16,040 Speaker 1: we we understand glitches and electronic gremlins and the things 369 00:19:16,080 --> 00:19:20,120 Speaker 1: that go bump in the night. How can we help you, sir? Okay, 370 00:19:20,160 --> 00:19:22,520 Speaker 1: I got a problem with my Tota. It spins and 371 00:19:22,720 --> 00:19:25,840 Speaker 1: spins and spins, but it doesn't turn over. Is this 372 00:19:25,960 --> 00:19:28,520 Speaker 1: the car we talked about back in September that was overheating? 373 00:19:29,400 --> 00:19:31,320 Speaker 1: Oh you know what, Yes, sir man, you've got a 374 00:19:31,359 --> 00:19:33,400 Speaker 1: good memory. And what was real? What happened with dad brother? 375 00:19:33,760 --> 00:19:35,480 Speaker 1: I fixed it. I let it sit and let it 376 00:19:35,520 --> 00:19:37,960 Speaker 1: sit and let it sit, you know. And then it 377 00:19:38,119 --> 00:19:40,840 Speaker 1: was air pockets because it went away. All it was. 378 00:19:41,119 --> 00:19:45,760 Speaker 1: I changed the stupid gascon on the thermostat because they 379 00:19:45,840 --> 00:19:49,080 Speaker 1: leak on those drip drip drip, so it overheated. I figured, 380 00:19:50,160 --> 00:19:52,720 Speaker 1: you know, I had nothing to do but wait. So 381 00:19:52,800 --> 00:19:55,280 Speaker 1: I waited and they went away and went back to 382 00:19:55,359 --> 00:19:59,520 Speaker 1: a normal setting. Have been driving it ever since? Cool? Well? Yeah, 383 00:19:59,600 --> 00:20:01,760 Speaker 1: how little cool? Yeah? Real cool? Now? You know, keep 384 00:20:01,800 --> 00:20:05,280 Speaker 1: in mind two things. If the system is ever air bound, 385 00:20:05,600 --> 00:20:07,680 Speaker 1: if you ever think a vehicle is air bound, park 386 00:20:07,760 --> 00:20:09,879 Speaker 1: it knows up and take the radiator cap off when 387 00:20:09,920 --> 00:20:14,439 Speaker 1: it's cool, and let it sit overnight. That's right, that's right, 388 00:20:14,520 --> 00:20:16,760 Speaker 1: I have a yeah, that's right. If if you actually 389 00:20:16,800 --> 00:20:18,879 Speaker 1: ever if anybody ever visited, you got to do that 390 00:20:19,000 --> 00:20:22,320 Speaker 1: one too. When you do, when you do, uh water pump, 391 00:20:22,560 --> 00:20:27,520 Speaker 1: rush on the older absolutely getting that air stuff. I 392 00:20:27,600 --> 00:20:30,159 Speaker 1: hated that when I did the water pump. If anybody 393 00:20:30,240 --> 00:20:32,040 Speaker 1: ever visits the shop, they always want to know why. 394 00:20:32,080 --> 00:20:33,879 Speaker 1: The one side of the shop where we parked the 395 00:20:33,920 --> 00:20:35,840 Speaker 1: cars has got a slight tilt to it. There's about 396 00:20:35,880 --> 00:20:38,959 Speaker 1: a ten degree rise on the right side. Two reasons. 397 00:20:39,040 --> 00:20:40,879 Speaker 1: Number one, when we do a cooling system repair, we 398 00:20:40,920 --> 00:20:43,080 Speaker 1: parked the car there overnight and it burps the air out. 399 00:20:43,359 --> 00:20:45,320 Speaker 1: And number two, if we parked the car thereafter, it's 400 00:20:45,359 --> 00:20:47,679 Speaker 1: towed in if it's if it's a no start, if 401 00:20:47,720 --> 00:20:50,760 Speaker 1: we park it knows knows out. It's just a matter 402 00:20:50,920 --> 00:20:53,159 Speaker 1: of opening the shop door and somebody get in the car. 403 00:20:53,200 --> 00:20:54,800 Speaker 1: They put a neutral and it rolls into the shop 404 00:20:54,880 --> 00:20:56,840 Speaker 1: all by itself. We're getting lazy as we get older. 405 00:20:57,160 --> 00:21:00,159 Speaker 1: So but that incline does a lot for us. Uh um, 406 00:21:00,400 --> 00:21:03,400 Speaker 1: So what is this? It cranks over, it'll it will spin, 407 00:21:03,480 --> 00:21:07,800 Speaker 1: but it doesn't catch exactly. Does it crank too fast? 408 00:21:09,200 --> 00:21:12,959 Speaker 1: Kind of? Yeah? Yeah? Um, you know, is it spinning 409 00:21:13,240 --> 00:21:16,680 Speaker 1: faster than normal? Yes, it is a little bit. I 410 00:21:16,800 --> 00:21:19,280 Speaker 1: noticed that. So the battery went in and I kept 411 00:21:19,320 --> 00:21:21,080 Speaker 1: trying it. I did a bunch of tests to it. 412 00:21:21,600 --> 00:21:25,040 Speaker 1: I recharged the battery overnight, and the same dog on thing. 413 00:21:26,160 --> 00:21:29,040 Speaker 1: What makes you think it's not a broken timing belt 414 00:21:29,640 --> 00:21:31,960 Speaker 1: is what I'm thinking. It was done at ninety thousand. 415 00:21:32,040 --> 00:21:36,880 Speaker 1: It's got a hundred and eighty four thousand has a belt? Yeah, 416 00:21:36,960 --> 00:21:40,840 Speaker 1: I mean, um, so did you check for spark? Did 417 00:21:40,880 --> 00:21:42,960 Speaker 1: you check for fuel injection? Yeah? Here's what I read 418 00:21:43,000 --> 00:21:45,440 Speaker 1: up on the book, right, sir, And the book says 419 00:21:45,440 --> 00:21:48,439 Speaker 1: you use a universal spark tester. I don't have one 420 00:21:48,480 --> 00:21:50,679 Speaker 1: of those, right, So did that make a difference if 421 00:21:50,720 --> 00:21:53,480 Speaker 1: you use a regular one? You know, we're looking for spark. 422 00:21:53,560 --> 00:21:57,560 Speaker 1: It does or doesn't it won't. Do you have any spark? Okay? Yeah, okay, 423 00:21:57,600 --> 00:21:59,440 Speaker 1: here's what I did. I goofed up. I'm an old 424 00:21:59,480 --> 00:22:03,440 Speaker 1: school so I did. I had spark on number one cylinder, right, 425 00:22:03,960 --> 00:22:05,800 Speaker 1: But I didn't do the other three and the only 426 00:22:05,840 --> 00:22:07,879 Speaker 1: way the next step because I got the haynes Man 427 00:22:08,040 --> 00:22:10,040 Speaker 1: as sister, you go through all these stupid steps. So 428 00:22:10,080 --> 00:22:13,119 Speaker 1: you go through the steps and I forgot, like dummy me, 429 00:22:13,240 --> 00:22:15,480 Speaker 1: I forgot. You gotta check it's in the book. You 430 00:22:15,560 --> 00:22:20,119 Speaker 1: gotta check every freaking spark plug many because every coil 431 00:22:20,359 --> 00:22:22,200 Speaker 1: is different. There's two coils on here. It's got a 432 00:22:22,720 --> 00:22:27,080 Speaker 1: distributed list ignition system. Because of that, it's making me 433 00:22:27,200 --> 00:22:29,840 Speaker 1: check it. So it's been too cold here, but tomorrow 434 00:22:29,840 --> 00:22:32,080 Speaker 1: it's going down to forties. So I'm gonna try. I'm 435 00:22:32,080 --> 00:22:35,880 Speaker 1: gonna test every every spark plug wire that tests every coil. 436 00:22:35,880 --> 00:22:40,000 Speaker 1: I'll eliminate the coils and then you know what I mean. 437 00:22:40,119 --> 00:22:42,919 Speaker 1: All right, listen, listen, Michael. The reason it says Ron 438 00:22:43,000 --> 00:22:44,600 Speaker 1: and Ainey in the car doctors. You gotta let me 439 00:22:44,640 --> 00:22:46,680 Speaker 1: talk every once in a while. Here's what I Okay, No, 440 00:22:46,800 --> 00:22:48,600 Speaker 1: it's just because I won't. I gotta say it because 441 00:22:48,760 --> 00:22:51,920 Speaker 1: you understand. Here's here's what I want in this, Michael. 442 00:22:51,960 --> 00:22:53,720 Speaker 1: Here's what I want you to Here's what I Here's 443 00:22:53,760 --> 00:22:56,440 Speaker 1: what I want you to do. Okay, Um, here's what 444 00:22:56,520 --> 00:22:57,760 Speaker 1: I want you to do. I want you to get 445 00:22:57,800 --> 00:23:01,040 Speaker 1: out to an autoparts store. I want you to get 446 00:23:01,280 --> 00:23:05,560 Speaker 1: a spark tester, a graduated spark tester, something that will 447 00:23:06,440 --> 00:23:08,080 Speaker 1: that will you know you can bring it out the 448 00:23:08,160 --> 00:23:12,120 Speaker 1: twenty kill vaults or vaults, thirty thousand vaults and so long. 449 00:23:12,440 --> 00:23:16,680 Speaker 1: All right, Um, I want you to UH test each 450 00:23:16,720 --> 00:23:19,840 Speaker 1: spark plug. You're looking for spark. If you have spark. 451 00:23:19,960 --> 00:23:22,639 Speaker 1: If you can load the system to twenty and thirty 452 00:23:22,680 --> 00:23:26,080 Speaker 1: and forty vaults and check for spark on each and 453 00:23:26,240 --> 00:23:29,800 Speaker 1: you have spark, then the next step is while you're 454 00:23:29,800 --> 00:23:33,080 Speaker 1: down there by a mechanic stethoscope, listen for the click. 455 00:23:33,400 --> 00:23:36,239 Speaker 1: Listen to each injector while somebody's cranking it over. If 456 00:23:36,280 --> 00:23:39,760 Speaker 1: the injectors click and you've got spark, you're now down 457 00:23:39,880 --> 00:23:44,080 Speaker 1: to a fuel issue, or you're down to something mechanical. 458 00:23:44,160 --> 00:23:47,639 Speaker 1: If you've got sparking injector pulse, the timing belt didn't break. 459 00:23:48,080 --> 00:23:51,159 Speaker 1: It might have jumped, but it didn't break because of 460 00:23:51,240 --> 00:23:53,440 Speaker 1: the fact that you wouldn't be turning the cam. You 461 00:23:53,480 --> 00:23:57,199 Speaker 1: wouldn't be getting signal. You shouldn't have those two operating. 462 00:23:57,800 --> 00:24:00,600 Speaker 1: All right. Um. The other wait because you want too 463 00:24:00,600 --> 00:24:03,119 Speaker 1: fast by scip and I'm listening for the injectors to 464 00:24:03,200 --> 00:24:05,040 Speaker 1: do too well. You want to hear the injectors click, 465 00:24:05,080 --> 00:24:06,320 Speaker 1: and you want to see if you've got spark on 466 00:24:06,440 --> 00:24:12,439 Speaker 1: all on all eight cylinders, on all four all right, um. 467 00:24:12,640 --> 00:24:13,879 Speaker 1: The other thing you want to do is if you 468 00:24:13,920 --> 00:24:15,680 Speaker 1: take the oil fill cap off, can you see the 469 00:24:15,760 --> 00:24:20,639 Speaker 1: top of the camp. That's a that's a yes or 470 00:24:20,720 --> 00:24:23,479 Speaker 1: no question. I haven't done that yet. All right, If 471 00:24:23,480 --> 00:24:25,160 Speaker 1: you take the oil fill cap off, can you see 472 00:24:25,200 --> 00:24:27,399 Speaker 1: the top of the camp. Have somebody crank it and 473 00:24:27,480 --> 00:24:29,560 Speaker 1: watch the cam. If the cam's moving, the timing belts 474 00:24:29,600 --> 00:24:33,040 Speaker 1: not broken. But if it's turning too fast, it sure 475 00:24:33,200 --> 00:24:36,560 Speaker 1: sounds like it sure sounds like the uh, it sure 476 00:24:36,680 --> 00:24:39,120 Speaker 1: sounds like the timing belts broken on this. So you've 477 00:24:39,119 --> 00:24:40,640 Speaker 1: got a couple of things to go look at. You've 478 00:24:40,640 --> 00:24:42,800 Speaker 1: got to go look at. Do you have spark? Do 479 00:24:42,880 --> 00:24:46,880 Speaker 1: you have injectors? Okay, because you get going real fast. Brother, listen. 480 00:24:46,920 --> 00:24:49,200 Speaker 1: So if you take the oil fill cap off, you're 481 00:24:49,200 --> 00:24:52,280 Speaker 1: gonna see that cam spinning. If I well, spinning you 482 00:24:53,800 --> 00:24:55,520 Speaker 1: it depends if there's a baffle in there. If that 483 00:24:55,680 --> 00:24:58,119 Speaker 1: cam spinning, then the belt didn't break, but it might 484 00:24:58,200 --> 00:25:01,399 Speaker 1: have jumped. Okay, So how do I get how do 485 00:25:01,520 --> 00:25:04,520 Speaker 1: I find out where top number one top dead center is. Well, 486 00:25:04,560 --> 00:25:07,120 Speaker 1: you're gonna pull number one plug out and you're gonna 487 00:25:07,200 --> 00:25:09,000 Speaker 1: slowly You're gonna, I mean, there's a bunch of ways 488 00:25:09,080 --> 00:25:12,240 Speaker 1: you can do it. Um obviously, take taking the top 489 00:25:12,320 --> 00:25:14,320 Speaker 1: time and cover off and bringing the camera around the 490 00:25:14,400 --> 00:25:16,920 Speaker 1: top and making sure you're on uh you're up top 491 00:25:17,000 --> 00:25:19,159 Speaker 1: on number one is going to be the way to 492 00:25:19,240 --> 00:25:21,240 Speaker 1: do it. Whether or not you're on top dead center 493 00:25:21,320 --> 00:25:24,520 Speaker 1: with regard to you're on the intake or on the 494 00:25:25,000 --> 00:25:28,200 Speaker 1: on um or a d eighty degrees out depends on 495 00:25:28,280 --> 00:25:31,520 Speaker 1: where the cam is. So it's still a matter of 496 00:25:31,880 --> 00:25:34,320 Speaker 1: bringing around the top, bring the camera around the top, 497 00:25:34,400 --> 00:25:36,879 Speaker 1: bring the crank around the top, lining it up against 498 00:25:36,920 --> 00:25:40,320 Speaker 1: the timing marks, and you'll be where you're supposed to be. Okay, 499 00:25:40,440 --> 00:25:44,239 Speaker 1: then then it couldn't be that uh so I get 500 00:25:44,359 --> 00:25:47,280 Speaker 1: to do all these things? Could um give? If it 501 00:25:47,440 --> 00:25:49,480 Speaker 1: is the if the belt did jump, is it worth 502 00:25:49,560 --> 00:25:51,639 Speaker 1: fixing it with aighty thousand miles if it was done 503 00:25:51,680 --> 00:25:56,120 Speaker 1: at ninety I don't know. Can you afford another car? Well? 504 00:25:56,200 --> 00:25:57,879 Speaker 1: I mean, if I do get it fixed, we'll we'll 505 00:25:57,960 --> 00:25:59,880 Speaker 1: that Will I be able to drive this thing safe? 506 00:26:00,200 --> 00:26:02,879 Speaker 1: You're you're not answering for a couple of months, or 507 00:26:03,119 --> 00:26:07,960 Speaker 1: you're not answering the question can you afford another car? Okay, 508 00:26:08,000 --> 00:26:10,280 Speaker 1: then this one's worth fixing. I mean, it's it's it's 509 00:26:10,359 --> 00:26:13,720 Speaker 1: it's that simple. If it's fixed properly, mileage doesn't scare 510 00:26:13,800 --> 00:26:17,159 Speaker 1: me all right, Um, the way a car gets fixed 511 00:26:17,240 --> 00:26:19,399 Speaker 1: and what sort of history maintenance it has, that's what 512 00:26:19,520 --> 00:26:21,840 Speaker 1: scares here. Is this a question, Tom? Tom? They were 513 00:26:21,880 --> 00:26:24,399 Speaker 1: telling me that the thing's got aluminum heads the force sailer. 514 00:26:24,440 --> 00:26:27,720 Speaker 1: Because I overheated it. That's danger right there. That a 515 00:26:27,800 --> 00:26:31,840 Speaker 1: limit that knocked off, the power off, that knocked off 516 00:26:31,880 --> 00:26:37,280 Speaker 1: the life expectancy of the motor overheated depends how much 517 00:26:37,280 --> 00:26:39,840 Speaker 1: it overheated. I don't recall how far it overheated that day, 518 00:26:40,320 --> 00:26:43,800 Speaker 1: uh five minutes. You know, at at a hundred and 519 00:26:43,840 --> 00:26:47,600 Speaker 1: eighty thousand miles. I'd be at a hundred eighty thousand miles, Michael, 520 00:26:47,640 --> 00:26:49,879 Speaker 1: I'd be you know, I'd be grateful for what I 521 00:26:49,960 --> 00:26:51,480 Speaker 1: got if I can put a timing belt on it 522 00:26:51,920 --> 00:26:55,080 Speaker 1: and continue to drive it. I drive it, Um, you know, 523 00:26:55,560 --> 00:26:58,360 Speaker 1: I wouldn't get by on hearsay. I'm a facts guy. 524 00:26:58,960 --> 00:27:01,520 Speaker 1: So this is it. Because I tested the pump. I 525 00:27:01,640 --> 00:27:05,399 Speaker 1: was getting voltage for what pump? You know? So I 526 00:27:05,480 --> 00:27:09,000 Speaker 1: was getting voltage, getting power, but the pump wasn't shaking 527 00:27:09,119 --> 00:27:11,439 Speaker 1: like when you took it out, Michael, what pump? Put 528 00:27:11,480 --> 00:27:14,280 Speaker 1: it in your hands? Tested for power and all that stuff. Michael, Michael, 529 00:27:14,359 --> 00:27:18,639 Speaker 1: what pump? What the fuel pump? Okay? Um, so do 530 00:27:18,720 --> 00:27:20,159 Speaker 1: you hear the fuel pump run when you when you 531 00:27:20,240 --> 00:27:21,800 Speaker 1: crank it over, because that's the other thing you gotta 532 00:27:21,840 --> 00:27:23,880 Speaker 1: check for. Oh no, I didn't, so I took it out. 533 00:27:24,000 --> 00:27:27,000 Speaker 1: Wait wait, wait, wait, brother, you took the fuel pump out. 534 00:27:27,480 --> 00:27:29,719 Speaker 1: You're you're checking for spark on one or two cylinders 535 00:27:29,760 --> 00:27:33,120 Speaker 1: and you still haven't checked cam timing. No, I'm glad 536 00:27:33,200 --> 00:27:35,440 Speaker 1: you told me that you gotta check cam timing. We 537 00:27:35,520 --> 00:27:38,760 Speaker 1: gotta go back to basics. You ever fix a bicycle? 538 00:27:40,160 --> 00:27:43,240 Speaker 1: Do you ever fix a flat? Okay? Well, you took 539 00:27:43,280 --> 00:27:45,399 Speaker 1: the chain off the back tire apart, you took the 540 00:27:45,440 --> 00:27:47,600 Speaker 1: seat off in the handlebars and the flats in the front. 541 00:27:47,880 --> 00:27:50,600 Speaker 1: You're going at this thing backwards, man, go for basics. 542 00:27:51,320 --> 00:27:53,320 Speaker 1: I couldn't hear the pump, brother, that's I couldn't hear 543 00:27:53,359 --> 00:27:55,879 Speaker 1: the dark. Well, yeah, I don't care. Sometimes you won't. 544 00:27:56,119 --> 00:27:59,200 Speaker 1: Sometimes the PCM won't power up the pump because of 545 00:27:59,240 --> 00:28:01,560 Speaker 1: the fact that the engine is not running and it's 546 00:28:01,600 --> 00:28:05,160 Speaker 1: not getting proper signal. So let's let's go for basics, 547 00:28:05,240 --> 00:28:07,359 Speaker 1: all right. I don't care what it is. Who made it, 548 00:28:07,359 --> 00:28:09,719 Speaker 1: Who designed that, who created it? Who engineered it? All right? 549 00:28:10,040 --> 00:28:13,119 Speaker 1: Spark fuel mechanical. If it's a one cylinder or four 550 00:28:13,200 --> 00:28:15,879 Speaker 1: cylinder or a twelve cylinder, all right, you gotta go 551 00:28:16,040 --> 00:28:18,359 Speaker 1: for spark. You gotta go for inject or click. And 552 00:28:18,400 --> 00:28:20,120 Speaker 1: then we're gonna go and see as the timing belt 553 00:28:20,200 --> 00:28:22,280 Speaker 1: lined up where it's supposed to be and doing what 554 00:28:22,320 --> 00:28:24,920 Speaker 1: it's supposed to do. After that, call me back. I'm 555 00:28:25,000 --> 00:28:26,800 Speaker 1: ronning any of the car Doctor. I'll be back right 556 00:28:26,880 --> 00:28:36,800 Speaker 1: after this. That's right. If you call and we're not live, 557 00:28:37,080 --> 00:28:38,880 Speaker 1: you can leave a message and we'll call you back 558 00:28:38,920 --> 00:28:43,000 Speaker 1: to get you on the air with RON zero nine 559 00:28:43,080 --> 00:28:46,560 Speaker 1: nine zero zero. Speaking of Ron here he is. Hey, 560 00:28:46,640 --> 00:28:48,400 Speaker 1: let's get over and talk to a Russell in Maine. 561 00:28:48,440 --> 00:28:50,840 Speaker 1: Oh five grand caravan and a misfire Russell. Welcome to 562 00:28:50,880 --> 00:28:56,000 Speaker 1: the Car Doctor, sir. How can I help Russell? I'll 563 00:28:56,040 --> 00:28:59,800 Speaker 1: go Philip. Oh, Philip, okay, we'll take Philip. So are 564 00:28:59,880 --> 00:29:02,720 Speaker 1: you would mean I'm in? Do you have no five 565 00:29:02,760 --> 00:29:05,640 Speaker 1: grand caravan? I do? Well, then you're my guy. I'll 566 00:29:05,640 --> 00:29:08,120 Speaker 1: take you. How can I help you? Sir? Okay? Well, 567 00:29:08,240 --> 00:29:10,920 Speaker 1: this problem has come up a couple of times before. 568 00:29:12,320 --> 00:29:16,200 Speaker 1: I have a misfire on number six cylinder and the 569 00:29:16,760 --> 00:29:20,600 Speaker 1: big flat plug grid under the air intake. Uh, I 570 00:29:20,680 --> 00:29:22,800 Speaker 1: can't find a pin out on it in the manual, 571 00:29:23,120 --> 00:29:26,680 Speaker 1: a children manual, trying to find out if I could 572 00:29:26,720 --> 00:29:30,760 Speaker 1: determine if there was a wire in that plug, because 573 00:29:30,840 --> 00:29:33,720 Speaker 1: usually if I unplug it and plug it back together, 574 00:29:34,120 --> 00:29:39,720 Speaker 1: the misfire will go away, but this time it won't. Also, 575 00:29:41,000 --> 00:29:44,240 Speaker 1: I understand from what I read in the book, number 576 00:29:44,280 --> 00:29:47,200 Speaker 1: three and number six both fire at the same time 577 00:29:47,320 --> 00:29:51,280 Speaker 1: every time over correct. One's one's a combustion spark, one's 578 00:29:51,280 --> 00:29:55,320 Speaker 1: away spark. One fires on the exhaust stroke. Okay, So 579 00:29:56,080 --> 00:30:01,320 Speaker 1: if I unplug the wire off number six ground of 580 00:30:01,560 --> 00:30:05,320 Speaker 1: terminal on the coil, I get nothing. If I pull 581 00:30:05,400 --> 00:30:12,160 Speaker 1: the plug wire off on three, there's all kinds of fire. Okay. 582 00:30:12,240 --> 00:30:14,360 Speaker 1: So so here's the question, and I don't have a 583 00:30:14,400 --> 00:30:18,360 Speaker 1: wearing diagram in front of me, does does? Is when 584 00:30:18,560 --> 00:30:21,480 Speaker 1: when six is triggered, is six triggered? And I believe 585 00:30:21,520 --> 00:30:24,440 Speaker 1: it is. I believe six is triggered through the same 586 00:30:25,160 --> 00:30:28,480 Speaker 1: primary lead. This is just primary and secondary ignition. I 587 00:30:28,600 --> 00:30:32,200 Speaker 1: believe six is triggered through the same primary circuit as 588 00:30:32,320 --> 00:30:36,280 Speaker 1: number three. I think so because there's only four wires 589 00:30:36,800 --> 00:30:41,720 Speaker 1: into that that coil, right, correct one the ground and 590 00:30:41,760 --> 00:30:45,480 Speaker 1: then the other three of the triggers. So you know, 591 00:30:45,640 --> 00:30:48,560 Speaker 1: you could you could test the theory simple enough. Pull 592 00:30:48,640 --> 00:30:50,680 Speaker 1: off one of the other wires or disconnect one of 593 00:30:50,680 --> 00:30:55,360 Speaker 1: the other wires and should lose two cylinders, right if 594 00:30:55,400 --> 00:30:57,280 Speaker 1: you pull off the one four. I think four and 595 00:30:57,400 --> 00:31:01,160 Speaker 1: one are triggered the same. I so yeah, if you 596 00:31:01,240 --> 00:31:03,200 Speaker 1: if you pull off the one for one and four, 597 00:31:03,280 --> 00:31:05,640 Speaker 1: you should lose one in four. You should lose the 598 00:31:05,680 --> 00:31:07,600 Speaker 1: ability to make spark on one and four. If that's 599 00:31:07,640 --> 00:31:10,240 Speaker 1: the case, and you've got spark on three but not 600 00:31:10,400 --> 00:31:12,920 Speaker 1: on six doing it that way, it sounds like you've 601 00:31:12,960 --> 00:31:17,040 Speaker 1: got a bad coil. Oh that's what I thought. But this, 602 00:31:17,400 --> 00:31:21,560 Speaker 1: this pug thing um is your wire in that by 603 00:31:21,600 --> 00:31:25,040 Speaker 1: any chance, there's just to tanks at number six, not 604 00:31:26,600 --> 00:31:28,480 Speaker 1: to my knowledge. I would still want to consult the 605 00:31:28,520 --> 00:31:31,880 Speaker 1: wiring diagram, but I get one. I would, but the 606 00:31:31,920 --> 00:31:34,920 Speaker 1: book has got all kinds of wiring diagram, but I 607 00:31:35,000 --> 00:31:38,480 Speaker 1: can't find anything about that. Um. Do you have access 608 00:31:38,520 --> 00:31:45,480 Speaker 1: to email? Philip? Do you have access to email? Email? Yes? 609 00:31:45,600 --> 00:31:47,920 Speaker 1: All right, if you send me an email? Ron at 610 00:31:48,000 --> 00:31:51,320 Speaker 1: Card Doctor Show dot com. Okay, I'll dig up a 611 00:31:51,360 --> 00:31:54,880 Speaker 1: wiring diagram for you. Very good, all right, just give 612 00:31:54,920 --> 00:31:59,920 Speaker 1: me for that underneath their Okay, you give me your 613 00:32:00,080 --> 00:32:02,560 Speaker 1: make model and uh and tell me what you're looking for, 614 00:32:03,240 --> 00:32:04,680 Speaker 1: and I'll do my best. I'll see if I can 615 00:32:04,680 --> 00:32:07,600 Speaker 1: come up with a wiring diagram to send you. Okay, 616 00:32:07,720 --> 00:32:10,360 Speaker 1: thank you, all right, I have a coil coming. I'm 617 00:32:10,360 --> 00:32:14,240 Speaker 1: gonna try change in the coil. Right. Well, you're like me, though, 618 00:32:14,240 --> 00:32:16,040 Speaker 1: you want to understand why you fixed it, and I 619 00:32:16,160 --> 00:32:17,960 Speaker 1: respect that. True. I thought if I could get a 620 00:32:18,040 --> 00:32:21,280 Speaker 1: pin ow, I could check the continuity between all those 621 00:32:21,400 --> 00:32:25,200 Speaker 1: connections and find out, you know, if the one pertained 622 00:32:25,200 --> 00:32:28,440 Speaker 1: a number six, if it was bad, I wasn't getting continuity. 623 00:32:28,480 --> 00:32:31,040 Speaker 1: I could put a little jumper wire acause well, I 624 00:32:31,120 --> 00:32:32,920 Speaker 1: think what you're gonna find is if you read the 625 00:32:33,000 --> 00:32:37,160 Speaker 1: primary resistance on the coil on on one and four 626 00:32:37,280 --> 00:32:40,800 Speaker 1: and five and two, you're gonna see resistance there, and 627 00:32:40,840 --> 00:32:42,800 Speaker 1: then you're gonna go to three and six and you're 628 00:32:42,800 --> 00:32:44,880 Speaker 1: gonna find none. And that means the coil itself is 629 00:32:44,920 --> 00:32:47,360 Speaker 1: bad internally, and that's where the fault is going to be. 630 00:32:47,480 --> 00:32:49,440 Speaker 1: But you send me, you send me an email Ron 631 00:32:49,520 --> 00:32:51,360 Speaker 1: at Car Doctors Show dot Com. I'll see if I 632 00:32:51,360 --> 00:32:55,200 Speaker 1: can get some information to you. Eight zero the Car 633 00:32:55,280 --> 00:33:04,560 Speaker 1: Doctors coming back right after this. We're back. We're on 634 00:33:04,640 --> 00:33:06,120 Speaker 1: needing the card offer. You know, I didn't get to 635 00:33:06,160 --> 00:33:08,840 Speaker 1: do any yellow sticky note turning points this week, and 636 00:33:08,840 --> 00:33:10,560 Speaker 1: I had a bunch of good ones, so that'll be 637 00:33:10,640 --> 00:33:13,280 Speaker 1: next week. Let's go over and talk to Paul in Minnesota. 638 00:33:13,400 --> 00:33:16,160 Speaker 1: My my good buddy here, Mr mechanic from Minnesota? How 639 00:33:16,200 --> 00:33:19,320 Speaker 1: are you today? Paul? How cold is it there? Well, A, 640 00:33:19,760 --> 00:33:23,880 Speaker 1: it's about me eighteen above, but it's been four days 641 00:33:23,920 --> 00:33:27,200 Speaker 1: in a row at forty six to eight below with 642 00:33:27,320 --> 00:33:32,160 Speaker 1: a degree windshield. Hello, Yeah, how do you get them 643 00:33:32,240 --> 00:33:34,920 Speaker 1: diesels to start in that cold weather there? Paul? That's 644 00:33:34,920 --> 00:33:38,680 Speaker 1: got to be a tough Okay. The biggest thing I 645 00:33:38,760 --> 00:33:41,240 Speaker 1: found with this this is good if they want to 646 00:33:41,360 --> 00:33:47,600 Speaker 1: spend the money is the five set and then if 647 00:33:47,720 --> 00:33:50,440 Speaker 1: they can plug him in.
