It just doesn't 4 00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:19,760 Speaker 1: do it. The Car Doctor, you says, I put off 5 00:00:19,800 --> 00:00:23,799 Speaker 1: the gap, um that goes away?

Hello, Hey, we're here. 15 00:01:00,040 --> 00:01:01,840 Speaker 1: Let's let's go right to the phones. They're very busy 16 00:01:01,880 --> 00:01:04,120 Speaker 1: this hour. Let's go over to John Investell, New York 17 00:01:04,600 --> 00:01:07,280 Speaker 1: ninety jeep wrangler. John, I'm all yours running ning the 18 00:01:07,280 --> 00:01:10,520 Speaker 1: car Doctorate your service or how can I help? Yes, 19 00:01:10,600 --> 00:01:13,839 Speaker 1: like I said, I put the submission because it was bad. 20 00:01:13,920 --> 00:01:17,480 Speaker 1: But anyway, now the clutch attack a little cylinder that 21 00:01:17,640 --> 00:01:22,000 Speaker 1: you put right for it in it right, and the 22 00:01:22,040 --> 00:01:26,720 Speaker 1: brakfloat seems to be it was empty. There's only one 23 00:01:27,240 --> 00:01:31,200 Speaker 1: UM two going into the cylinder. And you know, and 24 00:01:31,520 --> 00:01:35,720 Speaker 1: then I take to the clutch pedal back and fourth 25 00:01:35,920 --> 00:01:39,240 Speaker 1: I can't seem to find I gotta order a new 26 00:01:39,360 --> 00:01:43,800 Speaker 1: under to replace. We think that it would be where 27 00:01:43,800 --> 00:01:46,480 Speaker 1: he's leaking from. I can't think playing anyway where it's going. 28 00:01:46,560 --> 00:01:49,040 Speaker 1: So so what's what Let's let's back up a second, John, 29 00:01:49,040 --> 00:01:50,680 Speaker 1: because you're a little ahead of all of this. Um, 30 00:01:50,960 --> 00:01:53,240 Speaker 1: what's the issue here? You're you you've got a ninety 31 00:01:53,240 --> 00:01:57,600 Speaker 1: Wrangler four cylinder or six cylinder, its four cylinder, four cylinder, 32 00:01:58,040 --> 00:02:00,600 Speaker 1: and you've got your adding you're ad flewid to the 33 00:02:00,600 --> 00:02:04,800 Speaker 1: clutch master cylinder and it seems to disappear. Yeah, okay, 34 00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:06,840 Speaker 1: And was it a case that you were driving this 35 00:02:06,920 --> 00:02:08,640 Speaker 1: vehicle and then one day you pushed the clutch and 36 00:02:08,720 --> 00:02:10,240 Speaker 1: went to the floor and didn't come up. The pedal 37 00:02:10,240 --> 00:02:14,079 Speaker 1: didn't come up. No, the pells were loose. When with 38 00:02:14,160 --> 00:02:17,480 Speaker 1: that happens that if it happened like once a month, 39 00:02:17,520 --> 00:02:20,160 Speaker 1: a couple of months like that, it'll do that. Right? 40 00:02:20,800 --> 00:02:26,120 Speaker 1: What where the fluid just disappears. Yeah, there's okay, So 41 00:02:26,160 --> 00:02:28,880 Speaker 1: it's only leak in one of two places. You know, 42 00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:30,880 Speaker 1: it would not be uncommon for it to be leaking 43 00:02:30,919 --> 00:02:32,639 Speaker 1: out the back of the clutch master. Have you seen 44 00:02:32,680 --> 00:02:34,880 Speaker 1: any of it running down inside the car by your feet, 45 00:02:34,919 --> 00:02:38,400 Speaker 1: because that seal butts up against the firewall, and you 46 00:02:38,440 --> 00:02:42,359 Speaker 1: know it'll I haven't okay, it'll it'll, it'll fail and 47 00:02:42,480 --> 00:02:44,799 Speaker 1: it'll if this I doubt that this is well. A 48 00:02:44,840 --> 00:02:47,080 Speaker 1: jeep would have carpet, but it probably has a rubber mat, 49 00:02:47,440 --> 00:02:53,600 Speaker 1: the rubber floor mat jeep. Uh right, yeah, let's pull it. 50 00:02:53,680 --> 00:02:55,440 Speaker 1: Let's pull the rubber matt up. Is there any break 51 00:02:55,440 --> 00:02:59,400 Speaker 1: fluid underneath there? All right? Because if it's a rubber matt, 52 00:02:59,440 --> 00:03:01,560 Speaker 1: you'll never know that it's there because the carpet always 53 00:03:01,600 --> 00:03:03,800 Speaker 1: let it soak through. And if it's if the back 54 00:03:03,840 --> 00:03:05,520 Speaker 1: of the master, you can look at the back of 55 00:03:05,560 --> 00:03:07,640 Speaker 1: the master. If you stuff your head under the dashboard 56 00:03:07,800 --> 00:03:09,640 Speaker 1: when you get that pain in the back between your 57 00:03:09,639 --> 00:03:12,600 Speaker 1: shoulder blades, that's the seat trek hurting you. Um, you're 58 00:03:12,600 --> 00:03:14,120 Speaker 1: in the right spot. You look up, you'll see the 59 00:03:14,120 --> 00:03:17,400 Speaker 1: clutch master and um, if it's dry, then the only 60 00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:19,280 Speaker 1: other place it can be going is down at the 61 00:03:19,280 --> 00:03:22,600 Speaker 1: slave cylinder where it pushes against the clutch fork. Does 62 00:03:22,600 --> 00:03:25,320 Speaker 1: it look like there's break fluid running out the bottom 63 00:03:25,320 --> 00:03:27,760 Speaker 1: of the bell housing. And the confusion here will be 64 00:03:27,800 --> 00:03:30,480 Speaker 1: that this is now a thirty five year old vehicle 65 00:03:31,160 --> 00:03:33,359 Speaker 1: that you know, if it has oil leaks, you'll never 66 00:03:33,400 --> 00:03:36,040 Speaker 1: notice the additional wetness from the break fluid that's leaking 67 00:03:36,040 --> 00:03:38,760 Speaker 1: out of the slave cylinder at the clutch at the 68 00:03:38,760 --> 00:03:41,880 Speaker 1: clutch fork. So it's you know, it's it's one of 69 00:03:41,920 --> 00:03:45,560 Speaker 1: two places. I don't think I'm trying to remember. Ninety 70 00:03:45,600 --> 00:03:47,680 Speaker 1: there was a version of this jeep where the slave 71 00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:50,840 Speaker 1: was inside the bell housing. The line went into the 72 00:03:50,920 --> 00:03:53,600 Speaker 1: side of the bell housing and the slave was inside 73 00:03:53,640 --> 00:03:57,520 Speaker 1: so you couldn't see it. Yeah, yeah, but yeah there 74 00:03:57,560 --> 00:03:59,200 Speaker 1: was your place too, because I put it what came 75 00:03:59,240 --> 00:04:04,560 Speaker 1: with the X and the Okay, so all right again, 76 00:04:04,600 --> 00:04:06,880 Speaker 1: I left it the match away and I ordered that's 77 00:04:06,880 --> 00:04:09,240 Speaker 1: when already saw them. Right. So in other words, you 78 00:04:09,280 --> 00:04:11,800 Speaker 1: had this, you had this problem, and you you just 79 00:04:11,880 --> 00:04:13,720 Speaker 1: pulled the trans put a clutch in it, put a 80 00:04:13,760 --> 00:04:16,000 Speaker 1: slave in it, and you've still got the issue, is 81 00:04:16,040 --> 00:04:20,400 Speaker 1: what you're saying. Okay, well, just remember this. You know, 82 00:04:20,480 --> 00:04:22,240 Speaker 1: you know what news stands for. If you're a regular 83 00:04:22,279 --> 00:04:24,560 Speaker 1: listener here, new means never ever works, So don't assume 84 00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:28,680 Speaker 1: the new slave is working. Uh you know, it's it's 85 00:04:28,800 --> 00:04:31,400 Speaker 1: what what you could do is if you find that 86 00:04:31,440 --> 00:04:34,720 Speaker 1: the master is not leaking, that the master's drying, and 87 00:04:34,920 --> 00:04:37,200 Speaker 1: don't be afraid on bolt the master off the firewall. 88 00:04:37,279 --> 00:04:39,279 Speaker 1: Is there any signs of fluid back there? And the 89 00:04:39,320 --> 00:04:41,400 Speaker 1: other thing that you'll see is if the if the fluids, 90 00:04:41,520 --> 00:04:43,760 Speaker 1: if the fluids been leaking out of the clutch master 91 00:04:44,200 --> 00:04:46,839 Speaker 1: break fluid is very costic. It will have caused the 92 00:04:46,839 --> 00:04:50,279 Speaker 1: paint to blister. It'll it'll remove the paint off the firewall. 93 00:04:50,720 --> 00:04:53,440 Speaker 1: So if you see signs of paint removal, then that 94 00:04:53,520 --> 00:04:56,359 Speaker 1: master has been leaking, you know. Now that's not to 95 00:04:56,400 --> 00:04:58,840 Speaker 1: say that you know you had a leaking master. You'll 96 00:04:58,839 --> 00:05:00,760 Speaker 1: put a new one on and then the new slave 97 00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:03,400 Speaker 1: isn't leaking either. So there's a process of elimination, one 98 00:05:03,440 --> 00:05:06,599 Speaker 1: step at a time. Don't be afraid to Yeah, it's 99 00:05:06,600 --> 00:05:08,680 Speaker 1: it's those are the only two places. There's no magic 100 00:05:08,760 --> 00:05:11,000 Speaker 1: or mystery here, uh you know, But don't be afraid 101 00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:13,080 Speaker 1: to wipe off the bottom of the trans bell housing. 102 00:05:13,120 --> 00:05:14,640 Speaker 1: And you know, does it continue to drip? Does it 103 00:05:14,680 --> 00:05:17,400 Speaker 1: continue to drip even without running the engine. If you're 104 00:05:17,440 --> 00:05:20,040 Speaker 1: not running the engine, chances are and you see something 105 00:05:20,120 --> 00:05:23,560 Speaker 1: still dripping out, chances are that's break fluid because the 106 00:05:23,560 --> 00:05:25,200 Speaker 1: only thing that can leak back there is the rear 107 00:05:25,240 --> 00:05:27,200 Speaker 1: main seal of the engine. And if the engine is 108 00:05:27,240 --> 00:05:29,320 Speaker 1: not running, you're really not gonna get any volume because 109 00:05:29,360 --> 00:05:33,480 Speaker 1: all the oils down in the pan. Right, So, um, 110 00:05:33,520 --> 00:05:35,160 Speaker 1: you know, don't let it, don't let it, don't let 111 00:05:35,160 --> 00:05:36,880 Speaker 1: it out of your kiddo. You're on the right track. 112 00:05:36,960 --> 00:05:39,000 Speaker 1: Always have confidence in what you're doing. I have faith 113 00:05:39,040 --> 00:05:42,760 Speaker 1: in you. All right, Okay, you're very welcome. Good luck. 114 00:05:42,920 --> 00:05:45,560 Speaker 1: Let's get on over and talk to Jeremy thirteen Silverado 115 00:05:46,040 --> 00:05:48,600 Speaker 1: and some questions here. Jeremy, good to talk to you again. 116 00:05:48,600 --> 00:05:52,560 Speaker 1: What's going on? Hey, Ron? I think, uh pretty much 117 00:05:52,640 --> 00:05:54,880 Speaker 1: checked everywhere else in the and I think I have 118 00:05:55,000 --> 00:06:00,120 Speaker 1: a leak from the bottom of my water pump. Okay, Um, 119 00:06:00,160 --> 00:06:03,520 Speaker 1: you know, I've got an occasional It only seems to 120 00:06:03,520 --> 00:06:05,919 Speaker 1: happen after it's really been running warm or you know, 121 00:06:06,240 --> 00:06:09,960 Speaker 1: under a lot of pressure. But anyway, I bought the 122 00:06:09,960 --> 00:06:13,120 Speaker 1: O E. M Water pump to put on and it 123 00:06:13,200 --> 00:06:15,760 Speaker 1: comes with a gasket in the whole nine yards. I've 124 00:06:15,760 --> 00:06:19,280 Speaker 1: read a couple of places online that they recommend using 125 00:06:19,320 --> 00:06:21,840 Speaker 1: a fell Pro instead of O E M. And I'm 126 00:06:21,880 --> 00:06:23,720 Speaker 1: just wondering what your thoughts are on that. It's like, 127 00:06:23,880 --> 00:06:26,320 Speaker 1: I hate to have a perfectly good OE M gasket 128 00:06:26,360 --> 00:06:30,520 Speaker 1: and not use it. This is the speculation. Yeah, this 129 00:06:30,600 --> 00:06:33,320 Speaker 1: is the orange O ring style gas. Get right with 130 00:06:33,320 --> 00:06:38,719 Speaker 1: a hard shim. Yeah right. You know, Felpro used to 131 00:06:38,720 --> 00:06:41,840 Speaker 1: be the king. They really were. They were the They 132 00:06:41,839 --> 00:06:44,880 Speaker 1: were flat out the best back in the day. And 133 00:06:45,520 --> 00:06:48,000 Speaker 1: you know, I don't want to blame Carl Icon because 134 00:06:48,200 --> 00:06:51,200 Speaker 1: Icon I can whatever his name is. Um. You know, 135 00:06:51,279 --> 00:06:54,960 Speaker 1: he bought the company, and I have seen the quality 136 00:06:55,000 --> 00:06:57,960 Speaker 1: of some of the Felpro stuff just go downhill. Um, 137 00:06:58,080 --> 00:07:00,599 Speaker 1: I can't say that it's consistent of us the board, 138 00:07:00,640 --> 00:07:02,720 Speaker 1: but you know, I shouldn't even say felt Pro. It 139 00:07:02,800 --> 00:07:04,719 Speaker 1: just seems like some of the brands that are housed 140 00:07:04,800 --> 00:07:07,599 Speaker 1: under that empire don't seem to be what they once were. 141 00:07:08,960 --> 00:07:11,600 Speaker 1: But you know, the way I would end this, the 142 00:07:11,640 --> 00:07:14,400 Speaker 1: way I would end and answer the question is I'm 143 00:07:14,440 --> 00:07:17,600 Speaker 1: fine with either one. I don't think one is better. 144 00:07:17,640 --> 00:07:20,160 Speaker 1: Than the other unless you show me direct proof of Hey, 145 00:07:20,200 --> 00:07:24,400 Speaker 1: we've had cases of this particular gasket causing a leak. 146 00:07:25,080 --> 00:07:28,800 Speaker 1: I think the key in your situation is it's a 147 00:07:28,880 --> 00:07:31,600 Speaker 1: nine year old vehicle. When you pull that pump off, 148 00:07:31,760 --> 00:07:33,840 Speaker 1: how does the plate that it sits again? Look is 149 00:07:33,880 --> 00:07:36,600 Speaker 1: it is it? Is it pitted? Does it have corrosion 150 00:07:36,680 --> 00:07:39,760 Speaker 1: on it? And if it does in that case, then 151 00:07:40,160 --> 00:07:42,160 Speaker 1: neither gas It's gonna work. You're gonna have to really 152 00:07:42,200 --> 00:07:44,280 Speaker 1: clean it up good and try and polish it smooth. 153 00:07:44,360 --> 00:07:46,960 Speaker 1: But then you run the risk of of gouging and 154 00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:52,160 Speaker 1: creating seeps. So what, hey, what what? What? What material 155 00:07:52,240 --> 00:07:55,320 Speaker 1: should I use for kind of cleaning that up? If 156 00:07:55,360 --> 00:07:57,840 Speaker 1: it does look like that, you don't want to use 157 00:07:57,840 --> 00:08:00,800 Speaker 1: anything hard. You know it's you don't want to use 158 00:08:00,840 --> 00:08:04,600 Speaker 1: the Scotch lock discs three M at one point made 159 00:08:04,840 --> 00:08:07,840 Speaker 1: a It looked like little they were a little green 160 00:08:07,960 --> 00:08:10,680 Speaker 1: or yellow roll lock pads, but they had like little 161 00:08:10,760 --> 00:08:14,240 Speaker 1: rubber eraser fingers on the tip. Um it was a 162 00:08:14,280 --> 00:08:17,920 Speaker 1: real soft material that would just polish it and clean 163 00:08:17,960 --> 00:08:19,960 Speaker 1: it up, you know, you would need an air tool 164 00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:22,800 Speaker 1: or at this point some kind of cordless grinder tool. 165 00:08:23,360 --> 00:08:26,600 Speaker 1: Um not a lot of pressure. Now, you know, it 166 00:08:26,680 --> 00:08:29,560 Speaker 1: depends on if this is the original pump from the factory, 167 00:08:29,600 --> 00:08:32,560 Speaker 1: original pump from the factory. If there's no corrosion, the 168 00:08:32,600 --> 00:08:34,920 Speaker 1: pump will come down and there should not be any 169 00:08:34,960 --> 00:08:39,640 Speaker 1: sealer there, all right, So you may not find any 170 00:08:39,679 --> 00:08:43,480 Speaker 1: sealer now, truth be told. You know, Ron always has 171 00:08:43,480 --> 00:08:45,680 Speaker 1: his rules, but then there's always that exception to the rule. 172 00:08:46,320 --> 00:08:47,840 Speaker 1: You know. One of the rules I have is I 173 00:08:47,880 --> 00:08:50,480 Speaker 1: never use our TV where a rubber O ring meets 174 00:08:50,480 --> 00:08:53,160 Speaker 1: a metal pan. And then then I'm run across a 175 00:08:53,160 --> 00:08:56,240 Speaker 1: water pump housing that's corroded, and you know I'd have 176 00:08:56,280 --> 00:08:58,600 Speaker 1: to take the block out and have it machined. So 177 00:08:58,720 --> 00:09:01,280 Speaker 1: guess what, I clean it up as smooth as I can, 178 00:09:02,120 --> 00:09:04,560 Speaker 1: and polish it as most as I can, and and 179 00:09:04,679 --> 00:09:06,960 Speaker 1: try to be as unobtrusive as I can and the 180 00:09:07,040 --> 00:09:09,640 Speaker 1: least damaging as I can. And I will take a 181 00:09:09,640 --> 00:09:14,160 Speaker 1: thinn schmir schmir being a technical term of our TV, 182 00:09:14,559 --> 00:09:17,920 Speaker 1: and just try to fill the craters, all right, and 183 00:09:18,040 --> 00:09:22,080 Speaker 1: pop the and I'll still use the gas get absolutely 184 00:09:22,520 --> 00:09:26,360 Speaker 1: all right, absolutely now, the best the best r TV, 185 00:09:26,920 --> 00:09:31,000 Speaker 1: in my opinion, is from Perma Text. The right stuff, 186 00:09:31,400 --> 00:09:34,080 Speaker 1: The right stuff really is the right stuff. It really works. Well, 187 00:09:34,520 --> 00:09:36,440 Speaker 1: I've had I've had great success. But you don't want 188 00:09:36,440 --> 00:09:37,840 Speaker 1: to you don't want to put a lot of it 189 00:09:37,880 --> 00:09:40,080 Speaker 1: on there. It's and I'm not saying you're gonna have to, 190 00:09:40,880 --> 00:09:42,640 Speaker 1: but just enough to bring it kind of up to 191 00:09:42,720 --> 00:09:45,880 Speaker 1: a level. Yeah, just you know, just a just a 192 00:09:46,040 --> 00:09:49,880 Speaker 1: thin skim coat of spackle, so to speak, only on 193 00:09:49,920 --> 00:09:51,800 Speaker 1: the block side, right, I wouldn't put it on the 194 00:09:51,840 --> 00:09:53,960 Speaker 1: pump now. I shouldn't need it on the pump side 195 00:09:54,000 --> 00:09:57,040 Speaker 1: because the the d O ring should have a smooth, 196 00:09:57,040 --> 00:09:59,520 Speaker 1: clean surface to seal against. And that's if the block 197 00:09:59,640 --> 00:10:02,079 Speaker 1: is that's if the block is corroded. Now you may 198 00:10:02,120 --> 00:10:04,480 Speaker 1: pull it down. If you really have a leak out 199 00:10:04,480 --> 00:10:08,320 Speaker 1: of the gasket, then you've got a real severe case 200 00:10:08,320 --> 00:10:10,200 Speaker 1: of corrosion. And it might be a little bit different. 201 00:10:10,240 --> 00:10:12,240 Speaker 1: So maybe when you take the pump down, take a 202 00:10:12,240 --> 00:10:14,080 Speaker 1: picture of it, Shoot me a picture, email me a 203 00:10:14,120 --> 00:10:16,679 Speaker 1: picture of it. You've got my email Ron at car 204 00:10:16,720 --> 00:10:24,439 Speaker 1: Doctor show. Right, it might just be from the right absolutely, 205 00:10:24,800 --> 00:10:28,040 Speaker 1: So all right, kiddo, you're welcome, be well, be well, 206 00:10:28,120 --> 00:10:32,240 Speaker 1: be safe, zero zero run an in the car doctor right, 207 00:10:32,240 --> 00:10:44,760 Speaker 1: your service coming back right after this. Whether it's a 208 00:10:44,800 --> 00:10:47,840 Speaker 1: little red Corvette or you go. You've come to the 209 00:10:47,920 --> 00:10:50,360 Speaker 1: right place to get that car fixed. Ron, and in 210 00:10:50,360 --> 00:10:55,120 Speaker 1: the car doctor five five five zero zero zero. Now 211 00:10:55,360 --> 00:10:57,240 Speaker 1: back to Ron. Hey, let's get over and talk to 212 00:10:57,320 --> 00:11:00,360 Speaker 1: Charles in Virginia. Charles, what's going on? Ron, sir of us? 213 00:11:01,760 --> 00:11:05,240 Speaker 1: Thanks for all. I have a question on old type 214 00:11:06,160 --> 00:11:11,120 Speaker 1: character coils. It goes on. I have some It says 215 00:11:11,160 --> 00:11:14,600 Speaker 1: battery and then distributor, and I have some it's just 216 00:11:14,800 --> 00:11:19,800 Speaker 1: blusted madness. Now which one on those goes to the battery, 217 00:11:19,880 --> 00:11:23,920 Speaker 1: which one goes to the distributor. Well, battery would be 218 00:11:23,960 --> 00:11:31,960 Speaker 1: positive and distributor would be negative. The battery would be positive, Okay? 219 00:11:32,000 --> 00:11:35,120 Speaker 1: Is that? Uh so that would be the same on 220 00:11:36,559 --> 00:11:44,240 Speaker 1: uh positive ground or deguative crowd. Right, Well, now the 221 00:11:44,679 --> 00:11:49,920 Speaker 1: older tractors are positive prowl. Now you've got me all right? 222 00:11:50,679 --> 00:11:53,960 Speaker 1: All right? So now now I believe it's going to 223 00:11:54,000 --> 00:11:57,840 Speaker 1: be backwards because the coil has to a reversed coil. 224 00:11:58,679 --> 00:12:00,480 Speaker 1: You know, back in the day, when a oil was 225 00:12:00,520 --> 00:12:04,240 Speaker 1: connected backwards, it would fire, but the scope pattern would 226 00:12:04,240 --> 00:12:08,320 Speaker 1: be upside down. And I never you know, I never 227 00:12:08,360 --> 00:12:11,040 Speaker 1: actually played with a tractor that was a positive ground 228 00:12:11,040 --> 00:12:13,720 Speaker 1: with a scope to see would it matter if I 229 00:12:13,760 --> 00:12:16,360 Speaker 1: flipped it? Um in terms of if I put a 230 00:12:16,400 --> 00:12:18,880 Speaker 1: negative coil in a positive ground vehicle when reversed the 231 00:12:18,880 --> 00:12:20,600 Speaker 1: way it was hooked up. I never got that far 232 00:12:20,920 --> 00:12:24,040 Speaker 1: in my career. Uh, you know, what are you? What 233 00:12:24,080 --> 00:12:27,680 Speaker 1: are you trying to do? Find a replacement coil? I 234 00:12:27,760 --> 00:12:31,560 Speaker 1: have some replacement calls that I picked up along the 235 00:12:32,000 --> 00:12:35,520 Speaker 1: from dire places. But I was wondering which how that 236 00:12:35,840 --> 00:12:40,120 Speaker 1: I should uh mandaim when well, what what? What's what's 237 00:12:40,480 --> 00:12:43,240 Speaker 1: what's in the tractor right now? Charles? What's you know? 238 00:12:43,280 --> 00:12:44,800 Speaker 1: What's in the tractor now? And how is it? How 239 00:12:44,840 --> 00:12:47,760 Speaker 1: is it mounted? Do you have a do you have 240 00:12:47,760 --> 00:12:51,599 Speaker 1: a coil? It says positive? Negative? Or battery distributor? I 241 00:12:52,120 --> 00:12:56,720 Speaker 1: have uh, I have something that says uh battery distributor, 242 00:12:56,800 --> 00:12:59,319 Speaker 1: and then I have uh some that says plus and 243 00:12:59,440 --> 00:13:04,599 Speaker 1: minus right, But what's in the what's in the tractor now? Uh? 244 00:13:05,120 --> 00:13:07,640 Speaker 1: I have about six tractors, so I don't know which 245 00:13:07,679 --> 00:13:12,320 Speaker 1: one I was UH on the when it's been converted 246 00:13:12,360 --> 00:13:15,080 Speaker 1: to twelve volt instead of six volt on the old 247 00:13:15,160 --> 00:13:19,040 Speaker 1: tractors is what I was concerned about, whether it made 248 00:13:19,040 --> 00:13:21,640 Speaker 1: a difference on well, the other thing is to know 249 00:13:21,640 --> 00:13:27,360 Speaker 1: whether you've got a twelve or six volt system. That's 250 00:13:27,360 --> 00:13:31,440 Speaker 1: a whole another can of you know, because obviously you 251 00:13:31,440 --> 00:13:33,600 Speaker 1: want to put we want to put now now. I 252 00:13:33,640 --> 00:13:36,080 Speaker 1: remember back in the day there was conversation where we 253 00:13:36,080 --> 00:13:38,360 Speaker 1: were putting twelve volte coils and six volt systems and 254 00:13:38,400 --> 00:13:40,360 Speaker 1: they were getting hotter sparks. But then it was causing 255 00:13:40,440 --> 00:13:42,840 Speaker 1: damage to the system along the way because it wasn't 256 00:13:42,920 --> 00:13:47,040 Speaker 1: rated for it. So, you know, I think what I 257 00:13:47,040 --> 00:13:49,520 Speaker 1: would want to do is probably go like for like, 258 00:13:49,720 --> 00:13:53,520 Speaker 1: kind for kind. If I'm taking a positive negative coil 259 00:13:53,559 --> 00:13:57,199 Speaker 1: out rated for that system, I would probably want to 260 00:13:57,240 --> 00:13:59,440 Speaker 1: put one back in unless I could find somewhere along 261 00:13:59,480 --> 00:14:00,920 Speaker 1: the way of this X tell me that it's just 262 00:14:00,960 --> 00:14:04,400 Speaker 1: a different labeling process and positive is positive and negative 263 00:14:04,480 --> 00:14:08,280 Speaker 1: is negative and it doesn't really matter. Okay, does that 264 00:14:08,320 --> 00:14:10,720 Speaker 1: make sense? Is there a way is there a way 265 00:14:10,720 --> 00:14:15,120 Speaker 1: that test call ruthers tell rather six or twelve vote 266 00:14:16,240 --> 00:14:18,960 Speaker 1: that I know, I don't know, I've never done that. 267 00:14:19,000 --> 00:14:22,240 Speaker 1: I don't know that I've ever had to do that. UM. 268 00:14:22,360 --> 00:14:24,520 Speaker 1: I imagine we could look at the resistance windings of 269 00:14:24,600 --> 00:14:28,960 Speaker 1: the primary and you know, maybe a six volt coil 270 00:14:29,000 --> 00:14:31,760 Speaker 1: has a different primary resistance value than a twelve vault coil. 271 00:14:31,760 --> 00:14:35,440 Speaker 1: I've never really thought about it that much. Most most 272 00:14:35,480 --> 00:14:37,480 Speaker 1: of them have a marked I have a couple of 273 00:14:37,600 --> 00:14:42,280 Speaker 1: don't have a markets are rather six or twelve? Had 274 00:14:42,280 --> 00:14:44,440 Speaker 1: a question? I do know, I do know. They were 275 00:14:44,520 --> 00:14:48,200 Speaker 1: very specific about, you know, how they were assembled and 276 00:14:48,280 --> 00:14:50,680 Speaker 1: identified because they always wanted a six with a six 277 00:14:50,760 --> 00:14:54,440 Speaker 1: and a twelve with the twelve. So, um, hey, look 278 00:14:54,440 --> 00:14:55,960 Speaker 1: at look at this way. You've got a little science 279 00:14:55,960 --> 00:15:00,520 Speaker 1: project for yourself this weekend, so you know, so all right, 280 00:15:00,520 --> 00:15:03,840 Speaker 1: I appreciate I appreciate the cult. Charles, thank you. Okay, 281 00:15:03,880 --> 00:15:06,040 Speaker 1: thank you. You're very welcome. Hoebody, let's go over to 282 00:15:06,080 --> 00:15:09,200 Speaker 1: Bill and Virginia with three Cavalier and see what's going 283 00:15:09,240 --> 00:15:11,000 Speaker 1: on here. Bill, Welcome to the car doctice, Sir, How 284 00:15:11,040 --> 00:15:14,840 Speaker 1: can I help Ron? Thanks for taking my call. Uh. 285 00:15:14,960 --> 00:15:19,520 Speaker 1: The short story is my wife started up this Chevy Cavalier, 286 00:15:19,600 --> 00:15:22,160 Speaker 1: got about a block from the house and it just 287 00:15:22,280 --> 00:15:25,360 Speaker 1: died on her. And she said a lot of lights 288 00:15:25,400 --> 00:15:29,680 Speaker 1: came up on the dashboard. Uh, she turned the key off, 289 00:15:30,760 --> 00:15:33,800 Speaker 1: tried to restart, and it did. She brought it back 290 00:15:33,840 --> 00:15:37,920 Speaker 1: and parked it in the driveway. UM, I have gone 291 00:15:37,920 --> 00:15:41,760 Speaker 1: out and restarted it several times myself and it's acting 292 00:15:41,840 --> 00:15:46,560 Speaker 1: just fine. Um so, and I put an O dB 293 00:15:46,720 --> 00:15:51,720 Speaker 1: two scanner on it and there's no codes in it. So, um, 294 00:15:51,960 --> 00:15:57,960 Speaker 1: I'm suspicious of maybe uh the igniiance switch or but 295 00:15:58,040 --> 00:16:00,280 Speaker 1: I wanted to get your advice on what else I 296 00:16:00,280 --> 00:16:03,000 Speaker 1: should be looking for. Her. Well, so when it died, 297 00:16:03,040 --> 00:16:05,840 Speaker 1: does she does she recall because everybody kind of panics 298 00:16:05,920 --> 00:16:08,680 Speaker 1: understandably when the car does. Did it did it sort 299 00:16:08,680 --> 00:16:11,120 Speaker 1: of stutter to a stop and and cough and wheeze? 300 00:16:11,160 --> 00:16:15,240 Speaker 1: Or did it die clean like somebody turned the key? It? Uh, 301 00:16:15,400 --> 00:16:18,760 Speaker 1: my understanding is it died like she somebody turned the key. 302 00:16:18,760 --> 00:16:21,640 Speaker 1: And that's the other thing I did do on some 303 00:16:21,760 --> 00:16:24,800 Speaker 1: of my little test rides was I started turning a 304 00:16:24,920 --> 00:16:28,960 Speaker 1: key back towards off as I was driving it, and 305 00:16:29,160 --> 00:16:32,960 Speaker 1: it did die and all the lights came on, like 306 00:16:33,080 --> 00:16:35,240 Speaker 1: I think she was trying to describe to me. So 307 00:16:35,320 --> 00:16:38,680 Speaker 1: that's another reason that I'm suspicious of that ignition key. 308 00:16:38,840 --> 00:16:40,880 Speaker 1: And it could be you know, listen, it's it's it's 309 00:16:40,960 --> 00:16:44,400 Speaker 1: it's likely one of two things. It's likely well one 310 00:16:44,440 --> 00:16:47,880 Speaker 1: of three. Ignition Um, A fuel pump issue could be 311 00:16:47,920 --> 00:16:50,480 Speaker 1: fuel all right, or you know, a fuel feed you know, 312 00:16:50,520 --> 00:16:52,800 Speaker 1: maybe we don't, maybe the relays got an issue. I mean, 313 00:16:52,840 --> 00:16:54,040 Speaker 1: it could be a lot of things on a twenty 314 00:16:54,120 --> 00:16:57,120 Speaker 1: year old vehicle, all right, you know, or you know, 315 00:16:57,160 --> 00:16:58,480 Speaker 1: we could jump right to the heart of it. This 316 00:16:58,520 --> 00:17:01,040 Speaker 1: is a fourth cylinder with distribut to the signition right 317 00:17:01,920 --> 00:17:04,439 Speaker 1: the crank sensors mounting under the ignition coil on this 318 00:17:04,520 --> 00:17:07,880 Speaker 1: if I recall correct, don't I don't know that ron 319 00:17:08,040 --> 00:17:11,080 Speaker 1: okay um, they had they had module issues, they had 320 00:17:11,200 --> 00:17:13,960 Speaker 1: crank sensor issues, and you know, we're getting in deep. 321 00:17:14,040 --> 00:17:17,440 Speaker 1: So before we jump the gun, what I would tell 322 00:17:17,520 --> 00:17:20,880 Speaker 1: you is I would find the wiring for the ignition switch. 323 00:17:20,920 --> 00:17:24,679 Speaker 1: I get myself a wiring diagram, all right, and I 324 00:17:24,720 --> 00:17:27,160 Speaker 1: would look at it, and you're going to find either 325 00:17:27,359 --> 00:17:32,440 Speaker 1: one or two voltage feeds into the switch, and then 326 00:17:32,480 --> 00:17:35,359 Speaker 1: you're going to find a voltage feed out of the switch. 327 00:17:35,960 --> 00:17:39,000 Speaker 1: The voltage feed is going to come in from either 328 00:17:39,160 --> 00:17:41,679 Speaker 1: the main junction box under the hood, the battery or 329 00:17:41,680 --> 00:17:44,520 Speaker 1: the alternative the charging system, however it ties in, and 330 00:17:44,560 --> 00:17:47,000 Speaker 1: the feed out is going to energize the rest of 331 00:17:47,040 --> 00:17:49,560 Speaker 1: the vehicle such that, in other words, if you were 332 00:17:49,600 --> 00:17:51,600 Speaker 1: to cut that wire. And I'm not saying cut that wire, 333 00:17:51,640 --> 00:17:53,600 Speaker 1: but if you were to cut that wire, you would 334 00:17:53,640 --> 00:17:55,840 Speaker 1: lose all power into the vehicle. It's sort of like 335 00:17:55,920 --> 00:17:58,080 Speaker 1: taking the wine off the pole at your house, right 336 00:17:58,119 --> 00:17:59,560 Speaker 1: you have power up to the pole, but you have 337 00:17:59,640 --> 00:18:02,760 Speaker 1: nothing coming into the house. What I would do is 338 00:18:03,440 --> 00:18:06,560 Speaker 1: I would not cut the wires, but I would I 339 00:18:06,600 --> 00:18:09,359 Speaker 1: would just gently peel back a little bit of insulation 340 00:18:09,400 --> 00:18:11,520 Speaker 1: on the line in and the line out. I would 341 00:18:11,520 --> 00:18:16,439 Speaker 1: wire in a one bulb all right, that lights up, 342 00:18:16,480 --> 00:18:18,280 Speaker 1: and I'd put a colored bulb in one side and 343 00:18:18,280 --> 00:18:20,919 Speaker 1: a white bulb on the other. Take the car for 344 00:18:21,000 --> 00:18:24,600 Speaker 1: a rod the next time it dies, which bulb has power, 345 00:18:24,600 --> 00:18:27,240 Speaker 1: which bulb doesn't have power, if both bulbs have power, 346 00:18:27,760 --> 00:18:29,840 Speaker 1: or you see one bulb flickering in the other not. 347 00:18:30,760 --> 00:18:32,240 Speaker 1: And at least you've got to know you've got either 348 00:18:32,280 --> 00:18:34,439 Speaker 1: an issue with feed or the ignition switch itself. And 349 00:18:34,440 --> 00:18:37,040 Speaker 1: that kind of eliminates the guessing. Don't guess it's twenty 350 00:18:37,080 --> 00:18:39,440 Speaker 1: years old. That's a little diagnosis ron and naming the 351 00:18:39,480 --> 00:19:03,879 Speaker 1: car doctor. I'm coming back right after this. Don't go away. 352 00:19:04,680 --> 00:19:06,320 Speaker 1: That's sort of how I feel with the weather here 353 00:19:06,320 --> 00:19:08,720 Speaker 1: in the Northeast today. We went from six seventy degrees 354 00:19:08,760 --> 00:19:10,280 Speaker 1: in the middle of the week and now it's snowing 355 00:19:10,320 --> 00:19:12,720 Speaker 1: and raining. So you know, I'm waiting for spring to 356 00:19:12,760 --> 00:19:15,480 Speaker 1: show up, and uh, you know, hopefully it comes soon. Um. 357 00:19:15,720 --> 00:19:17,200 Speaker 1: And you know, with spring, I just want to bring 358 00:19:17,240 --> 00:19:18,960 Speaker 1: this up because we start thinking about it. You know, 359 00:19:19,119 --> 00:19:22,160 Speaker 1: with spring, it's time to think about some vehicle maintenance. 360 00:19:22,240 --> 00:19:25,520 Speaker 1: You know, filters, air filter, cabin filters, Cabin filters are 361 00:19:25,680 --> 00:19:27,919 Speaker 1: it's time, folks. You know what are our vehicles have 362 00:19:27,960 --> 00:19:31,040 Speaker 1: been sitting because we're we've been not driving nearly as much. 363 00:19:31,160 --> 00:19:33,600 Speaker 1: Now we're gonna start driving them again. Cabin air filters 364 00:19:33,600 --> 00:19:35,119 Speaker 1: are gonna be a key thing. And it's something to 365 00:19:35,119 --> 00:19:38,119 Speaker 1: think about spring cleaning, spring filters, right, you want to 366 00:19:38,160 --> 00:19:40,879 Speaker 1: make sure that you're doing that. Um. And I can 367 00:19:40,920 --> 00:19:43,359 Speaker 1: see by the emails, Kathy from Houston, Texas writes in 368 00:19:43,400 --> 00:19:46,399 Speaker 1: with your twelve Honda coord Ron, I'm very sensitive to smells. 369 00:19:46,400 --> 00:19:49,600 Speaker 1: I've got issues medically and otherwise that I'm always concerned 370 00:19:49,600 --> 00:19:51,520 Speaker 1: about what's coming inside the car as far as what 371 00:19:51,600 --> 00:19:54,600 Speaker 1: I'm breathing. Can you recommend or show me some possibilities 372 00:19:54,640 --> 00:19:57,200 Speaker 1: for cabin filters that might help improve the stability of 373 00:19:57,240 --> 00:20:00,800 Speaker 1: air inside my vehicle. Kathy, Houston, Texas. Uh, you know, Kathy, 374 00:20:00,920 --> 00:20:03,720 Speaker 1: it's it's yeah, there are choices. There are different brands 375 00:20:03,720 --> 00:20:06,199 Speaker 1: and different levels of cabin filter out there. Company by 376 00:20:06,240 --> 00:20:07,840 Speaker 1: the name of eco Guard. You can go out the 377 00:20:07,840 --> 00:20:10,000 Speaker 1: eco guard dot com and look it up. Um. They 378 00:20:10,080 --> 00:20:12,720 Speaker 1: make a line of filter that is specific to and 379 00:20:13,080 --> 00:20:15,959 Speaker 1: uh you know it's it's it's involves their um. Uh 380 00:20:16,000 --> 00:20:18,440 Speaker 1: they're smart Smell. Um. I believe it is a fresh 381 00:20:18,440 --> 00:20:21,760 Speaker 1: Sense I'm sorry, Smart Smell Fresh Sense uh filed line 382 00:20:21,760 --> 00:20:25,960 Speaker 1: of filters. They've designed that specifically Fresh Sense to help improve, 383 00:20:26,240 --> 00:20:29,119 Speaker 1: you know, or lower the sensor issues with smells inside 384 00:20:29,119 --> 00:20:31,240 Speaker 1: the vehicle cabin. And you can find more information about 385 00:20:31,240 --> 00:20:34,040 Speaker 1: it at eco guard dot com. So, uh, you know, 386 00:20:34,200 --> 00:20:36,760 Speaker 1: glad to see that you're trying to do your thing 387 00:20:36,800 --> 00:20:38,840 Speaker 1: down Their cabin filters are a very important part of 388 00:20:38,840 --> 00:20:42,240 Speaker 1: the maintenance puzzle, especially here in the East, well around 389 00:20:42,280 --> 00:20:44,159 Speaker 1: the country really. But um, you know, I get it 390 00:20:44,160 --> 00:20:46,960 Speaker 1: down there Houston way too. So eco guard dot com. 391 00:20:47,080 --> 00:20:49,760 Speaker 1: Let's get over to Kevin and Florida. Some questions on 392 00:20:49,840 --> 00:20:52,160 Speaker 1: lithium ion batteries. Kevin, Welcome to the car doctor, sir, 393 00:20:52,160 --> 00:20:55,639 Speaker 1: How can I help Hey, Ryan, great to listen to you. 394 00:20:55,720 --> 00:20:58,040 Speaker 1: I love your show than a long time. Thank you 395 00:20:58,040 --> 00:21:01,800 Speaker 1: appreciated thinking a storage and all the marine battery I 396 00:21:01,840 --> 00:21:03,560 Speaker 1: haven't here now is it's a few years old. You know, 397 00:21:03,600 --> 00:21:06,360 Speaker 1: they don't like us forever. And I'm looking into repower 398 00:21:06,440 --> 00:21:11,080 Speaker 1: and I'm looking listen my own battery and just if 399 00:21:11,160 --> 00:21:13,040 Speaker 1: knowing if you have any information on them and stay 400 00:21:13,040 --> 00:21:16,760 Speaker 1: hold up good, if they're susceptible to vibration in the boat, 401 00:21:16,920 --> 00:21:18,840 Speaker 1: or if you know anything about them at all. Well, 402 00:21:19,000 --> 00:21:21,359 Speaker 1: you know, I'm not going to tell you I'm a 403 00:21:21,400 --> 00:21:23,639 Speaker 1: lithium I on expert Kevin. I'm not gonna lie to you. 404 00:21:23,680 --> 00:21:26,000 Speaker 1: I don't lie to you guys, all right, Um, I 405 00:21:26,040 --> 00:21:28,160 Speaker 1: think if I was looking at him at a boat 406 00:21:28,200 --> 00:21:32,640 Speaker 1: application though you know obviously you're running marine application batteries 407 00:21:32,720 --> 00:21:38,600 Speaker 1: or you're not, uh no, mostly just starting power, so 408 00:21:39,359 --> 00:21:41,960 Speaker 1: you know, well, but I'm saying, you know, my understanding 409 00:21:41,960 --> 00:21:45,040 Speaker 1: of boats is it's it's gonna be a marine application 410 00:21:45,080 --> 00:21:48,280 Speaker 1: battery because it has to deal with the environment. Are 411 00:21:48,480 --> 00:21:50,719 Speaker 1: you running a deep cycle, ye, you're a deep cycle. 412 00:21:50,800 --> 00:21:53,280 Speaker 1: And are you running conventional automotive batteries but a deep 413 00:21:53,320 --> 00:21:57,240 Speaker 1: cycle or you're running marine batteries, but a deep cycle No, 414 00:21:57,359 --> 00:22:00,679 Speaker 1: I wrote a marine battery deep cycle. Now you know 415 00:22:00,800 --> 00:22:02,520 Speaker 1: what I would be curious of. And I didn't think 416 00:22:02,520 --> 00:22:05,639 Speaker 1: of it until your question just came up. But I wonder, 417 00:22:06,119 --> 00:22:08,919 Speaker 1: you know, instead of running a lead acid deep cycle battery, 418 00:22:08,960 --> 00:22:12,040 Speaker 1: if there's an a g M in your in your future. 419 00:22:12,240 --> 00:22:13,879 Speaker 1: And I'm wondering if an a g M battery is 420 00:22:13,920 --> 00:22:19,320 Speaker 1: where you want to go? All right? Only because a 421 00:22:19,359 --> 00:22:22,440 Speaker 1: lithium ion would likely require a change in the way 422 00:22:22,440 --> 00:22:24,680 Speaker 1: that battery gets charged. A means now you get to 423 00:22:24,720 --> 00:22:28,719 Speaker 1: change the charging system on the boat. So um, you know, 424 00:22:28,840 --> 00:22:31,120 Speaker 1: not not not something you would want to do from 425 00:22:31,119 --> 00:22:34,560 Speaker 1: my from my seat here, all right. Um, I can 426 00:22:34,600 --> 00:22:37,480 Speaker 1: send you to the website. Go to auto batteries dot com. 427 00:22:37,520 --> 00:22:39,840 Speaker 1: Auto batteries dot com talks about a g M s 428 00:22:40,359 --> 00:22:42,880 Speaker 1: and see if you can find a you know, see 429 00:22:42,920 --> 00:22:44,159 Speaker 1: if you can find an a g M that will 430 00:22:44,200 --> 00:22:47,639 Speaker 1: fit your boat. If not, go to go look to Optimum. 431 00:22:47,680 --> 00:22:50,879 Speaker 1: Just search Optimum Batteries out online. And I know they 432 00:22:50,920 --> 00:22:54,159 Speaker 1: make a marine battery application. And when it comes to 433 00:22:54,320 --> 00:22:57,520 Speaker 1: hot rods and vehicles that sit, boats sit there just 434 00:22:57,680 --> 00:23:00,480 Speaker 1: vehicles in the water. Uh, you know, when they they'll 435 00:23:00,520 --> 00:23:02,800 Speaker 1: they'll sit a lot that the optimum batteries tend to 436 00:23:02,800 --> 00:23:05,640 Speaker 1: hold their charge, and uh, you know, we've we've seen 437 00:23:05,680 --> 00:23:08,800 Speaker 1: and heard the reports were an optimum battery will last 438 00:23:08,840 --> 00:23:12,680 Speaker 1: five to seven years, and you know that's pretty outstanding. 439 00:23:12,720 --> 00:23:14,240 Speaker 1: You pay a little bit more, but you seem like 440 00:23:14,240 --> 00:23:16,680 Speaker 1: you get a lot more. So I think, uh, an 441 00:23:16,680 --> 00:23:19,560 Speaker 1: optimum and an a g M would really be the 442 00:23:19,560 --> 00:23:21,560 Speaker 1: way to go. I think lithium ion, I think you're 443 00:23:21,600 --> 00:23:23,720 Speaker 1: a little too far ahead of the edge. You're trying 444 00:23:23,720 --> 00:23:27,879 Speaker 1: to be two cutting edge. So but I understand. I 445 00:23:27,920 --> 00:23:29,919 Speaker 1: thought the lithium my own, which is a direct bolton 446 00:23:29,960 --> 00:23:34,280 Speaker 1: that it had alls are charging system well and Kevin, Kevin, 447 00:23:34,359 --> 00:23:36,760 Speaker 1: don't you know listen, it's gonna take some research. I 448 00:23:37,400 --> 00:23:40,199 Speaker 1: would want to know that. Now. My concern about a 449 00:23:40,240 --> 00:23:42,480 Speaker 1: lithium ion beyond do you have to modify the charging 450 00:23:42,520 --> 00:23:46,040 Speaker 1: system and maybe you don't, is with the issues of 451 00:23:46,280 --> 00:23:50,120 Speaker 1: fires that lithium ions will generate. Do I want to 452 00:23:50,320 --> 00:23:53,840 Speaker 1: do I want to be the experiment, you know, I 453 00:23:54,960 --> 00:23:56,639 Speaker 1: kind of want to know. You know, it's funny. I 454 00:23:56,680 --> 00:23:59,080 Speaker 1: was in Pittsburgh last weekend and we went to the 455 00:23:59,280 --> 00:24:01,440 Speaker 1: bicycle mu Zium. If you ever go to Pittsburgh. It's 456 00:24:01,440 --> 00:24:03,360 Speaker 1: really kind of it's a neat town. And we went 457 00:24:03,359 --> 00:24:06,000 Speaker 1: to the bike museum, the Bike Exchange, and this guy 458 00:24:06,119 --> 00:24:08,280 Speaker 1: had to have He's gotta have ten thousand bicycles in 459 00:24:08,320 --> 00:24:12,560 Speaker 1: this place. And why am I telling you about bicycles? Uh? 460 00:24:12,640 --> 00:24:14,280 Speaker 1: You know about this because I've got a reason because 461 00:24:14,280 --> 00:24:19,240 Speaker 1: it relates to your question. And he had, Yeah, he 462 00:24:19,359 --> 00:24:26,080 Speaker 1: had Leiyah Coca's lithium ion bicycle, an electric bicycle from 463 00:24:26,119 --> 00:24:28,359 Speaker 1: I think thirty years ago. And I've got you know, 464 00:24:28,400 --> 00:24:30,320 Speaker 1: I took a picture of it, and I haven't I 465 00:24:30,359 --> 00:24:31,840 Speaker 1: haven't posted it. Yeah, I'm gonna put it up on 466 00:24:31,880 --> 00:24:33,840 Speaker 1: the car Doctor Facebook page in the next day or two. 467 00:24:34,160 --> 00:24:37,080 Speaker 1: There's a sign on it that says Leia Coca's lithium 468 00:24:37,080 --> 00:24:41,359 Speaker 1: ion electric bike um known to produce, known to catch 469 00:24:41,440 --> 00:24:45,000 Speaker 1: fire and burn down the entire garage, so it was 470 00:24:45,080 --> 00:24:47,119 Speaker 1: kept out of production. I was like, wow, look at that. 471 00:24:47,160 --> 00:24:50,120 Speaker 1: They had lithium ion battery problems thirty years ago and 472 00:24:50,359 --> 00:24:52,879 Speaker 1: it still continues to this day. So I said, yeah, okay, 473 00:24:52,920 --> 00:24:55,000 Speaker 1: now I understand. So I don't know, you know, it's 474 00:24:55,560 --> 00:24:58,080 Speaker 1: listen if you want to be the science project. But 475 00:24:58,119 --> 00:25:03,600 Speaker 1: I think there's probably cheaper easier solutions than trying to experiment. 476 00:25:03,760 --> 00:25:07,000 Speaker 1: I think lithium myon's got their place, you know, electric vehicles, 477 00:25:07,680 --> 00:25:10,520 Speaker 1: you know, and emerging technology like that. But I think 478 00:25:10,520 --> 00:25:12,960 Speaker 1: to jump it unless somebody's got a conversion kit, I 479 00:25:12,960 --> 00:25:14,119 Speaker 1: don't know that. I want to be the guy to 480 00:25:14,200 --> 00:25:17,920 Speaker 1: try and you know, re engineer it. So all right, right, 481 00:25:18,640 --> 00:25:21,280 Speaker 1: all right, thank You're very welcome and look forward to listening. 482 00:25:21,600 --> 00:25:23,680 Speaker 1: Thank you, sir. I appreciate that. Kevin, you'd be well, 483 00:25:24,040 --> 00:25:25,960 Speaker 1: you'll be well. Let's let's pull over, take a pause. 484 00:25:25,960 --> 00:25:28,360 Speaker 1: I'm running eating of the car doctorate five five zero 485 00:25:29,160 --> 00:25:38,600 Speaker 1: zero will return right after this. Welcome back, runne in 486 00:25:38,640 --> 00:25:40,280 Speaker 1: the car doctor. Let's go over to Mike and Delaware 487 00:25:40,359 --> 00:25:43,080 Speaker 1: O three Monte Carlo. Mike, Welcome to the car doctor, sir. 488 00:25:43,080 --> 00:25:46,119 Speaker 1: How can I help? Hey? How you doing? Run? Got 489 00:25:46,119 --> 00:25:52,480 Speaker 1: a question? Um? The Monte Carlo smin sitting for about it? 490 00:25:52,800 --> 00:25:55,520 Speaker 1: Maybe a year, year and a half. What's I know? 491 00:25:55,720 --> 00:25:58,719 Speaker 1: The process? Checked ale in the order before you know. 492 00:25:59,119 --> 00:26:02,560 Speaker 1: For it's my mother's neighbor and she says she parked 493 00:26:02,840 --> 00:26:05,879 Speaker 1: in the backyard and left it there, but it's covered 494 00:26:05,960 --> 00:26:10,399 Speaker 1: up and I just want to know, you know, I 495 00:26:10,520 --> 00:26:13,639 Speaker 1: like it. Starting before because it's kind of hard to 496 00:26:14,000 --> 00:26:16,480 Speaker 1: get a trailer in there to pull it out. Pretty 497 00:26:17,359 --> 00:26:21,400 Speaker 1: rare card let's sit. So yeah, right, it's a shame. Yeah, 498 00:26:21,920 --> 00:26:25,320 Speaker 1: Jeff down three Mont, she said. They told my mother 499 00:26:25,400 --> 00:26:29,840 Speaker 1: it's a Jeff Gordon. Addition, it's the blue yeah, And 500 00:26:29,880 --> 00:26:31,520 Speaker 1: that's all they were. They were all blue and silver. 501 00:26:31,560 --> 00:26:33,720 Speaker 1: It's got twenty four stits in the seats. It's it's 502 00:26:33,720 --> 00:26:36,959 Speaker 1: a nice piece. I was supposed to go look at 503 00:26:37,000 --> 00:26:39,800 Speaker 1: it last Sunday, but she won't home. But the question 504 00:26:39,960 --> 00:26:43,800 Speaker 1: is what I mean, would I go and get a 505 00:26:43,840 --> 00:26:46,440 Speaker 1: couple of gallons of high test jewel and dump inner 506 00:26:46,760 --> 00:26:52,080 Speaker 1: and well battery and the problem, The problem, Mike, is 507 00:26:52,720 --> 00:26:56,600 Speaker 1: that you know, if it's been sitting a year or 508 00:26:56,800 --> 00:27:01,000 Speaker 1: longer by now, the fuel that's in there is is garbage, 509 00:27:01,520 --> 00:27:05,280 Speaker 1: all right, So if you started, if you dump more 510 00:27:05,320 --> 00:27:07,440 Speaker 1: fuel in and start it, you're gonna run good fuel 511 00:27:07,480 --> 00:27:10,000 Speaker 1: with bad And then what does that do to the 512 00:27:10,040 --> 00:27:16,040 Speaker 1: rest of it? Right? Because right, yep. So what I 513 00:27:16,040 --> 00:27:18,439 Speaker 1: would do is I'd figure out how to tow it 514 00:27:18,480 --> 00:27:20,800 Speaker 1: out of there, and then and then when you get 515 00:27:20,800 --> 00:27:22,360 Speaker 1: it to a place where you can, you know, look 516 00:27:22,400 --> 00:27:24,080 Speaker 1: at it, you know, how do you know there's not 517 00:27:24,119 --> 00:27:26,120 Speaker 1: animals living in it. How do you know something hasn't 518 00:27:26,160 --> 00:27:28,440 Speaker 1: chewed up a wiring harness? I mean, you've got it. 519 00:27:28,600 --> 00:27:32,000 Speaker 1: The next question is, I don't know if mycen chewed up, 520 00:27:32,680 --> 00:27:34,840 Speaker 1: you know, under the dash Do you kind of like 521 00:27:34,880 --> 00:27:38,840 Speaker 1: put the battery on turn ignition and see if anything flashes? Yell, 522 00:27:39,000 --> 00:27:40,639 Speaker 1: I listen. I you know, we don't want to. We 523 00:27:40,840 --> 00:27:42,720 Speaker 1: don't want to play science project. I think we want 524 00:27:42,720 --> 00:27:44,800 Speaker 1: to try and look around, and you know we want to. 525 00:27:44,840 --> 00:27:46,520 Speaker 1: We want to sort of look and you know it's 526 00:27:46,520 --> 00:27:48,080 Speaker 1: a current perfect car. You know, I want to get 527 00:27:48,080 --> 00:27:49,960 Speaker 1: it up in the air. I want to look around. 528 00:27:49,960 --> 00:27:52,080 Speaker 1: Do I see signs of animals? Do I see signs 529 00:27:52,119 --> 00:27:54,119 Speaker 1: of harnesses being chewed on? I'd want to look at 530 00:27:54,119 --> 00:27:57,639 Speaker 1: all the wheel wells and the wheelhouses, and then, you know, 531 00:27:57,840 --> 00:28:00,320 Speaker 1: I would want to disable the ignition. That should be 532 00:28:00,560 --> 00:28:03,879 Speaker 1: obviously a distributor as signition car, there'll be in an 533 00:28:03,920 --> 00:28:07,440 Speaker 1: ignition module somewhere. I would unplug it. I would turn 534 00:28:07,480 --> 00:28:10,320 Speaker 1: the key onto the dashlights come up. Obviously you're putting 535 00:28:10,320 --> 00:28:12,440 Speaker 1: a battery in it, or at least charging this one. 536 00:28:12,800 --> 00:28:15,800 Speaker 1: Put a battery in it, and you know that should 537 00:28:15,840 --> 00:28:18,520 Speaker 1: have a gauge. Being as that it's a Jeff Gordon edition, 538 00:28:18,880 --> 00:28:21,159 Speaker 1: the gage will re zero if you crank it and 539 00:28:21,240 --> 00:28:25,240 Speaker 1: disable the ignition. Crank it, you should see oil pressure 540 00:28:25,280 --> 00:28:28,199 Speaker 1: start to build. Once you see oil pressure, then I'd stop. 541 00:28:28,640 --> 00:28:31,360 Speaker 1: Then I'd plug the ignition back in. But I wouldn't 542 00:28:31,359 --> 00:28:33,800 Speaker 1: do any of this, you know. And obviously you know 543 00:28:33,880 --> 00:28:35,639 Speaker 1: how dirty is the oil? All right? You want to 544 00:28:35,640 --> 00:28:38,000 Speaker 1: start it on dirty oil? At this point, I don't 545 00:28:38,000 --> 00:28:40,000 Speaker 1: think it's gonna matter. I wouldn't. I don't think I 546 00:28:40,160 --> 00:28:43,280 Speaker 1: changed the oil until I heard it run, all right. Uh, 547 00:28:43,320 --> 00:28:45,440 Speaker 1: you know, unless it's got yellow paste in it, unless 548 00:28:45,440 --> 00:28:47,440 Speaker 1: it's got water in the crank case, if which case, 549 00:28:47,480 --> 00:28:50,080 Speaker 1: If it's got water in the crank case, then depending 550 00:28:50,160 --> 00:28:52,360 Speaker 1: upon the severity, you may want to pull the engine apart. 551 00:28:52,360 --> 00:28:54,200 Speaker 1: You know, how how deep do you want to get 552 00:28:54,240 --> 00:28:56,960 Speaker 1: on the gamble of of you know, because everybody says 553 00:28:57,080 --> 00:28:59,800 Speaker 1: it's only been sitting a year, all right, and you 554 00:28:59,800 --> 00:29:02,600 Speaker 1: know there's a there's an Eisenhower for President bumper stick 555 00:29:02,680 --> 00:29:04,000 Speaker 1: or on the back of it. Well, you know, I 556 00:29:04,000 --> 00:29:07,560 Speaker 1: guess that's a little longer than a year, right, Uh, 557 00:29:07,640 --> 00:29:10,200 Speaker 1: you know, And then at that point, once you get 558 00:29:10,240 --> 00:29:13,160 Speaker 1: to this stage and all the fuels have been pulled 559 00:29:13,200 --> 00:29:15,440 Speaker 1: out of the tank, you know, then you want to 560 00:29:15,440 --> 00:29:17,680 Speaker 1: put fresh fuel in it. Whatever's in the injectors, if 561 00:29:17,680 --> 00:29:19,800 Speaker 1: there's anything left, it will kind of push its way through. 562 00:29:20,160 --> 00:29:22,239 Speaker 1: I would also keep an eye on, you know, if 563 00:29:22,240 --> 00:29:23,880 Speaker 1: you can get an eye on the injectors, and I 564 00:29:23,880 --> 00:29:26,800 Speaker 1: would I think this is thet the plastic cover on 565 00:29:26,880 --> 00:29:29,400 Speaker 1: top of the planum. I'd be looking underneath because that's 566 00:29:29,400 --> 00:29:31,080 Speaker 1: where the animals are gonna be as it looks like 567 00:29:31,120 --> 00:29:34,080 Speaker 1: there's signs of a nest there. Uh, you know, i'd 568 00:29:34,080 --> 00:29:37,280 Speaker 1: be looking for you know, do I have any injectors 569 00:29:37,280 --> 00:29:41,240 Speaker 1: that are leaking or seeping? Because you know, it's funny. 570 00:29:41,280 --> 00:29:44,640 Speaker 1: Once the rubber o rings dry out that seal the injectors, 571 00:29:45,200 --> 00:29:47,080 Speaker 1: then all of a sudden they'll start to you know, 572 00:29:47,120 --> 00:29:49,200 Speaker 1: they may they may swell up and seal again. They 573 00:29:49,200 --> 00:29:52,479 Speaker 1: may sweat, they may start to seep. So you know, 574 00:29:52,560 --> 00:29:55,840 Speaker 1: it's those kinds of things. And then and then when 575 00:29:55,880 --> 00:29:58,800 Speaker 1: you finally get it started, then you're gonna change every 576 00:29:58,840 --> 00:30:01,480 Speaker 1: fluid in the car. If it's wet, it gets replaced. 577 00:30:01,680 --> 00:30:03,640 Speaker 1: All right. It's not even a conversation of do I 578 00:30:03,640 --> 00:30:05,800 Speaker 1: think I should change this or change that. If it's wet, 579 00:30:05,840 --> 00:30:08,240 Speaker 1: you're gonna replace it. You're gonna look at the brakes. 580 00:30:08,280 --> 00:30:11,560 Speaker 1: The brakes are probably rusted up. All right, You're you're 581 00:30:11,600 --> 00:30:14,480 Speaker 1: gonna go through all four wheels. You're gonna go through hydraulics, 582 00:30:14,520 --> 00:30:17,200 Speaker 1: do what you have to do. And you know, it 583 00:30:17,560 --> 00:30:19,240 Speaker 1: depends on what kind of shape it's in. It could 584 00:30:19,240 --> 00:30:21,800 Speaker 1: be a real nice class I'm saying. Yeah, I wish 585 00:30:21,840 --> 00:30:23,719 Speaker 1: it was a seventy two because that's what I had 586 00:30:23,840 --> 00:30:28,640 Speaker 1: back in my younger years. Yeah, I know where there's 587 00:30:28,760 --> 00:30:30,680 Speaker 1: I know where there's a seventy two gold Monty Carlo. 588 00:30:30,760 --> 00:30:34,160 Speaker 1: But you can't have it. So okay, you've got one day. 589 00:30:34,480 --> 00:30:38,040 Speaker 1: I got one, Um, you know I and listen, I 590 00:30:38,040 --> 00:30:39,680 Speaker 1: love telling that story. I woke up one day I 591 00:30:39,720 --> 00:30:41,280 Speaker 1: said I want the car I had in college. I 592 00:30:41,840 --> 00:30:44,360 Speaker 1: jumped on Craigslist, I typed in seventy two Monty Carlo, 593 00:30:44,400 --> 00:30:45,960 Speaker 1: and I found it down in Texas. I mean, it 594 00:30:46,000 --> 00:30:50,920 Speaker 1: was just like it was just said something that or something. 595 00:30:51,960 --> 00:30:57,680 Speaker 1: It was just sounds like because married, had kids and 596 00:30:58,320 --> 00:31:02,640 Speaker 1: God blessing, my white just passed ago. But I'm sorry, bro, Yeah, 597 00:31:02,800 --> 00:31:06,840 Speaker 1: I'm sorry. BROH got a question roight. Sure. How far 598 00:31:06,880 --> 00:31:09,000 Speaker 1: are you from your shot? I would love to meet 599 00:31:09,040 --> 00:31:12,320 Speaker 1: you in person. Your shot from Cherry Hill, New Jersey. 600 00:31:12,520 --> 00:31:17,400 Speaker 1: Three hours. Oh okay, Stude, you're way up there. Yeah, 601 00:31:17,440 --> 00:31:19,640 Speaker 1: they hired me. You know, I'm the face made for radio. 602 00:31:19,680 --> 00:31:22,520 Speaker 1: They don't let me out in public, you know, they 603 00:31:22,520 --> 00:31:25,080 Speaker 1: only recently, they only recently put me on TV. This 604 00:31:25,160 --> 00:31:28,160 Speaker 1: past week NBC New York came a knock and uh 605 00:31:28,200 --> 00:31:30,479 Speaker 1: we did. We did a little thing for NBC New 606 00:31:30,560 --> 00:31:33,920 Speaker 1: York Channel four. So uh um. But you know, listen, 607 00:31:34,240 --> 00:31:36,800 Speaker 1: I I want to say this before you go, Mike, 608 00:31:36,840 --> 00:31:38,320 Speaker 1: that I'm sorry to hear of your loss. And I 609 00:31:38,400 --> 00:31:42,080 Speaker 1: understand I would, I would, uh you keep you keep 610 00:31:42,080 --> 00:31:43,800 Speaker 1: the faith, brother, and you go, you find yourself a 611 00:31:43,840 --> 00:31:46,000 Speaker 1: hot rod and it doesn't substitute for the words we love. 612 00:31:46,080 --> 00:31:50,040 Speaker 1: But it's a yeah, middle a crisis. Now. Yeah, I'd 613 00:31:50,120 --> 00:31:53,200 Speaker 1: love to have the cars I had back when you 614 00:31:53,240 --> 00:31:56,320 Speaker 1: can find them. They're out there, yeah, you know they're 615 00:31:56,320 --> 00:31:58,800 Speaker 1: out there. But be careful what you're doing here and 616 00:31:58,840 --> 00:32:02,240 Speaker 1: make sure what you're getting involved with. And you probably 617 00:32:02,280 --> 00:32:04,560 Speaker 1: just gonna ask her if I'm pulling out and take 618 00:32:04,600 --> 00:32:07,560 Speaker 1: her to you know, and to my house and check 619 00:32:07,560 --> 00:32:11,080 Speaker 1: it over and you know, you know, you know, does 620 00:32:11,160 --> 00:32:13,120 Speaker 1: she want to sell it? That's the first question, you 621 00:32:13,200 --> 00:32:16,360 Speaker 1: know you want to ask. Yeah, I hate open. Well, 622 00:32:16,480 --> 00:32:18,840 Speaker 1: I'm getting no one myself. But when they yeah, I'm 623 00:32:19,240 --> 00:32:22,400 Speaker 1: ing in the back, it didn't feel like driving right 624 00:32:22,680 --> 00:32:27,000 Speaker 1: doesn't work. Hey, Mike, I gotta run. You'd be well right? Thanks, 625 00:32:27,000 --> 00:32:29,080 Speaker 1: take good care, Bye bye, I'm running any and the 626 00:32:29,080 --> 00:32:38,760 Speaker 1: car doctor. We're back right after this. Welcome back, rann 627 00:32:39,000 --> 00:32:41,160 Speaker 1: a card doctor. Let's get over to David and Virginia. David, 628 00:32:41,520 --> 00:32:43,000 Speaker 1: Welcome to board, sir. How can I help you in 629 00:32:43,080 --> 00:32:45,800 Speaker 1: a couple of three minutes to go? Good afternoon? How 630 00:32:45,840 --> 00:32:50,280 Speaker 1: you doing good, sir? What's up? So? I've gotten Mustang 631 00:32:50,640 --> 00:32:54,880 Speaker 1: nothing special, just standard basic packages all across the board. 632 00:32:55,360 --> 00:32:58,760 Speaker 1: I got my windows tinted probably about three weeks ago, 633 00:32:58,880 --> 00:33:01,560 Speaker 1: roughly now, and I would say, I don't know two 634 00:33:01,640 --> 00:33:03,840 Speaker 1: or three days after I did that. Uh. The only 635 00:33:03,840 --> 00:33:05,560 Speaker 1: way I could describe it is if you plug an 636 00:33:05,560 --> 00:33:08,440 Speaker 1: OX cord into a phone or something and you hear 637 00:33:08,480 --> 00:33:10,560 Speaker 1: that that static sound when you first plug it in, 638 00:33:11,280 --> 00:33:15,200 Speaker 1: really loud sound. I was hearing that popping randomly, whether 639 00:33:15,240 --> 00:33:17,840 Speaker 1: it was the radio being on or off. It would 640 00:33:17,840 --> 00:33:20,720 Speaker 1: just come across my speaker is really loud at random intervals. 641 00:33:21,520 --> 00:33:24,520 Speaker 1: And then maybe about seven eight days after I got 642 00:33:24,520 --> 00:33:27,560 Speaker 1: the tinting done, my radio just went dead, the radio, 643 00:33:27,720 --> 00:33:31,720 Speaker 1: the clock, everything, and uh, about a week after that 644 00:33:32,160 --> 00:33:35,360 Speaker 1: it came back, and then half a day later it 645 00:33:35,440 --> 00:33:38,280 Speaker 1: went in again. And then this morning when I or 646 00:33:38,400 --> 00:33:40,000 Speaker 1: sorry this happened in a few minutes ago, when I 647 00:33:40,040 --> 00:33:42,480 Speaker 1: turn my car on, the radio came back and your 648 00:33:42,480 --> 00:33:44,320 Speaker 1: show was on. So I figured out call and asked, 649 00:33:44,360 --> 00:33:45,880 Speaker 1: and uh, I got out of the car and I 650 00:33:45,920 --> 00:33:47,920 Speaker 1: turned it back on. And now I'm sitting here with 651 00:33:47,960 --> 00:33:53,440 Speaker 1: a dead radio and dead clock again. So I don't insight. Yeah, 652 00:33:53,560 --> 00:33:57,600 Speaker 1: I don't see a connection between the tinting windows and 653 00:33:57,640 --> 00:34:01,080 Speaker 1: the radio. Um. And at first I thought it might 654 00:34:01,120 --> 00:34:03,280 Speaker 1: be a short because they had water down the door, 655 00:34:03,400 --> 00:34:05,480 Speaker 1: But that doesn't really seem to make sense because I 656 00:34:05,520 --> 00:34:07,960 Speaker 1: mean that they should be kind of water resistant down there. 657 00:34:08,000 --> 00:34:09,520 Speaker 1: You know, it's drained to the bottom the door to 658 00:34:09,560 --> 00:34:12,719 Speaker 1: allow the water to leak out. But right, and that's there. 659 00:34:12,760 --> 00:34:15,520 Speaker 1: They're speakers in the door, but the radio control head 660 00:34:15,640 --> 00:34:19,440 Speaker 1: isn't there, so you know, I can't I can't see 661 00:34:19,480 --> 00:34:23,440 Speaker 1: that really affecting the radio itself. So the radio itself 662 00:34:23,520 --> 00:34:28,400 Speaker 1: is dead. I guess I wouldn't say dead. It comes 663 00:34:28,440 --> 00:34:31,759 Speaker 1: and it goes well, well, but when it's gone, when 664 00:34:31,840 --> 00:34:34,960 Speaker 1: it's dead, it doesn't work. Now is this a navigation system? 665 00:34:35,040 --> 00:34:37,120 Speaker 1: Not work? And I press the power? You know, I've 666 00:34:37,120 --> 00:34:40,279 Speaker 1: tried resetting the battery or taking the negative lead off 667 00:34:40,280 --> 00:34:42,760 Speaker 1: the battery for ten fifteen minutes. You have to hard reset. 668 00:34:42,800 --> 00:34:45,440 Speaker 1: Everything does not affect it. Right now, I'm sitting here 669 00:34:45,480 --> 00:34:48,320 Speaker 1: watching the clock flashing about every five seconds to flash 670 00:34:48,480 --> 00:34:54,640 Speaker 1: cigarette lighter work? Does it have? Yeah? Yep, and uh, 671 00:34:54,760 --> 00:34:57,960 Speaker 1: I've got the A C controls. They worked, um, and 672 00:34:57,960 --> 00:35:03,080 Speaker 1: they're on the same panel. Which is so depending upon 673 00:35:03,160 --> 00:35:06,000 Speaker 1: which well, depending upon which radio this is, David, there 674 00:35:06,000 --> 00:35:09,200 Speaker 1: could be anywhere from two to four fuses that control 675 00:35:09,280 --> 00:35:17,000 Speaker 1: that system. So it's gonna be well, well, well, no, 676 00:35:17,120 --> 00:35:19,200 Speaker 1: it can't keep coming back. But if the fuse was 677 00:35:19,280 --> 00:35:23,799 Speaker 1: somehow corroded, I've seen not again, not related to the tin. 678 00:35:23,920 --> 00:35:25,560 Speaker 1: Get the tint out of your head for the moment, 679 00:35:25,840 --> 00:35:28,920 Speaker 1: but I've seen cases where some of these spade terminal 680 00:35:28,960 --> 00:35:32,480 Speaker 1: fuses will corrode and burn and pit, and they will 681 00:35:32,560 --> 00:35:36,120 Speaker 1: provide intermittent electrical connection. What I would tell you to 682 00:35:36,160 --> 00:35:40,200 Speaker 1: do is go get a wiring diagram for your particular system, 683 00:35:40,239 --> 00:35:43,279 Speaker 1: what matches whatever that vehicle has. Verify the fuses are good. 684 00:35:43,400 --> 00:35:46,960 Speaker 1: Verify the spade terminals are all good, clean context, there's 685 00:35:46,960 --> 00:35:49,560 Speaker 1: no issues in the fuse box. And then you're probably 686 00:35:49,560 --> 00:35:52,000 Speaker 1: looking at a radio issue. You may want to measure 687 00:35:52,040 --> 00:35:54,640 Speaker 1: power and ground to verify and go from there. Came 688 00:35:54,760 --> 00:35:56,200 Speaker 1: back if you need more, I'm on an anying in 689 00:35:56,200 --> 00:35:59,360 Speaker 1: the car. Doctor. Good mechanics aren't expensive, They're priceless. See you. 690 00:36:04,760 --> 00:36:05,600 Speaker 1: She was star
