Speaker 1: the walls on the oil changes the Car Doctor, the

7
00:00:17,880 --> 00:00:21,400
Speaker 1: tire pressure indicator lights is lit. It stays lit, and

8
00:00:21,480 --> 00:00:23,680
Speaker 1: we check the air pressure in the tire zip fine,

9
00:00:24,360 --> 00:00:26,960
Speaker 1: as long as you're setting tire pressure to a thin

10
00:00:27,040 --> 00:00:29,960
Speaker 1: fifteen percent of placard that lights you go out. Welcome

11
00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:33,080

Speaker 1: for their definitive opinion on automotive repair. If your mechanics

14
00:00:42,280 --> 00:00:44,879
Speaker 1: giving you a busy signal, pick up the phone and

00:00:51,800 --> 00:00:58,240
Speaker 1: and now he running. Hey, it's really busy and crazy today,

18
00:00:58,320 --> 00:01:00,320
Speaker 1: so let's kick the garage doors. Open it off the

19
00:01:00,360 --> 00:01:02,280
Speaker 1: bat and go to Marianne and Virginia Beach and living

20
00:01:02,320 --> 00:01:04,760
Speaker 1: Ford Fusion. Marianne, Welcome to the Car Doctor. How can

21
00:01:04,800 --> 00:01:10,120
Speaker 1: I help? Well, I have for infusion, and it has

22
00:01:10,160 --> 00:01:13,480
Speaker 1: been rattling for about three months, and every time I

23
00:01:13,480 --> 00:01:16,240
Speaker 1: wounded up the car, it would stop, but then it

24
00:01:16,360 --> 00:01:18,920
Speaker 1: was as it was going along it would come back again.

25
00:01:18,959 --> 00:01:21,640
Speaker 1: So when I took it three times to their dealership,

26
00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:23,920
Speaker 1: they couldn't find anything wrong with it. And then the

27
00:01:23,959 --> 00:01:26,760
Speaker 1: fourth time he said, well, it sounds like the mode

28
00:01:26,760 --> 00:01:28,560
Speaker 1: amounts And I said, well, how would you know that

29
00:01:28,600 --> 00:01:30,560
Speaker 1: if you didn't put it up on the lift. He said, well,

30
00:01:30,880 --> 00:01:32,360
Speaker 1: we'd have to put it up on the lift and

31
00:01:32,400 --> 00:01:35,720
Speaker 1: take it roll apart and core animal quester a thousand dollars.

32
00:01:36,160 --> 00:01:38,360
Speaker 1: And I said, well, let me think about this, and

33
00:01:38,360 --> 00:01:40,840
Speaker 1: he said, well, you know, if it rattles really bed

34
00:01:40,959 --> 00:01:43,040
Speaker 1: and it starts shaking, then bring it back and we'll

35
00:01:43,080 --> 00:01:46,720
Speaker 1: replace it. And he said, now that their rubber, um,

36
00:01:46,959 --> 00:01:49,800
Speaker 1: they're compressed rubber. They're not metal the way they used

37
00:01:49,800 --> 00:01:51,760
Speaker 1: to be. That's what you told me. But um, so

38
00:01:51,920 --> 00:01:54,960
Speaker 1: I'm riding around with this rattling noise and I don't

39
00:01:55,000 --> 00:01:57,160
Speaker 1: know whether the motives gonna fall out or something else,

40
00:01:57,200 --> 00:01:59,600
Speaker 1: because I thought it was something with the heating and

41
00:01:59,680 --> 00:02:03,880
Speaker 1: corn because once it runned up it started to stop.

42
00:02:03,960 --> 00:02:06,520
Speaker 1: And use it to me, well, if you're driving with it,

43
00:02:06,560 --> 00:02:10,080
Speaker 1: you're not going to hear it. Let's let's all the time.

44
00:02:10,440 --> 00:02:12,760
Speaker 1: Let's take a let's take a pause here. First of all,

45
00:02:12,840 --> 00:02:16,560
Speaker 1: this noise, does it happen only while you're driving or

46
00:02:16,600 --> 00:02:19,720
Speaker 1: if you're sitting at a traffic light in gear waiting

47
00:02:19,720 --> 00:02:22,919
Speaker 1: for the light to change. Do you still hear it? Yes?

48
00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:25,840
Speaker 1: When I'm in drive and to to stop it from

49
00:02:25,880 --> 00:02:27,679
Speaker 1: doing not stop you stop it from doing it. I

50
00:02:27,720 --> 00:02:31,840
Speaker 1: put it in neutral. Okay, so it goes away in neutral? Yes,

51
00:02:32,320 --> 00:02:35,280
Speaker 1: did the dealer he? Now, it will come back, but

52
00:02:35,360 --> 00:02:39,080
Speaker 1: if I stepped heavily on the brake, it stops. So

53
00:02:39,120 --> 00:02:42,080
Speaker 1: it's almost like when I'm in motion. Right, Well, waitn't

54
00:02:42,120 --> 00:02:46,960
Speaker 1: now mary? Did the dealer here of the noise? Yes?

55
00:02:47,080 --> 00:02:49,720
Speaker 1: He did. Finally he did. When I pulled it back

56
00:02:49,760 --> 00:02:53,239
Speaker 1: and pulled it forward in the noise. If you put

57
00:02:53,280 --> 00:02:56,760
Speaker 1: it in reverse, sitting at the traffic light, you hear it.

58
00:02:56,800 --> 00:02:59,120
Speaker 1: In drive, you put it in neutral, it goes away.

59
00:02:59,440 --> 00:03:01,560
Speaker 1: If you put it in reverse, do you still hear

60
00:03:01,600 --> 00:03:10,000
Speaker 1: the noise? Yes? You do? Yes, Okay, No, sitting there

61
00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:13,000
Speaker 1: at idle, No, that does. Listen to what I said,

62
00:03:13,240 --> 00:03:16,480
Speaker 1: Listen to what I asked. Sitting there at a traffic light,

63
00:03:16,520 --> 00:03:19,320
Speaker 1: waiting for the light to change, or a stop sign,

64
00:03:19,680 --> 00:03:24,240
Speaker 1: all right, or in your driveway all right. If if

65
00:03:24,280 --> 00:03:26,760
Speaker 1: the noise is there and you're sitting in drive, you

66
00:03:26,800 --> 00:03:29,240
Speaker 1: put it in neutral, the noise goes away. If you

67
00:03:29,280 --> 00:03:32,840
Speaker 1: put it in reverse, does the noise change pitch, tone,

68
00:03:32,919 --> 00:03:38,600
Speaker 1: or disappear? That's the question. It's still there, just as

69
00:03:38,640 --> 00:03:43,800
Speaker 1: if the car was in drive. Okay. Now is the

70
00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:49,000
Speaker 1: dealer saying for sure it's motor mounts or they're guessing? Well,

71
00:03:49,080 --> 00:03:52,120
Speaker 1: to me, it sounds like they're guessing. But he claims

72
00:03:52,200 --> 00:03:54,200
Speaker 1: that's what it is, and that's all I can say

73
00:03:54,240 --> 00:03:57,120
Speaker 1: because that's what he's telling me. Now, it's possible, and

74
00:03:57,160 --> 00:04:01,800
Speaker 1: from your description it sounds logical to me. But I

75
00:04:01,840 --> 00:04:03,640
Speaker 1: would have to say, there's gotta be a little more

76
00:04:03,720 --> 00:04:06,760
Speaker 1: diagnosis made. And there's a couple of ways they can

77
00:04:06,800 --> 00:04:10,120
Speaker 1: do that, you know, duplicate the noise, hood up the

78
00:04:10,200 --> 00:04:13,000
Speaker 1: vehicle chalk so it doesn't roll away, parking break on,

79
00:04:13,080 --> 00:04:15,680
Speaker 1: and so on. Somebody's foot on the brake pedal sitting

80
00:04:15,720 --> 00:04:18,160
Speaker 1: there while the noise is happening. If we were to

81
00:04:18,200 --> 00:04:22,560
Speaker 1: take a pride bar and push pull polke prod on

82
00:04:22,640 --> 00:04:25,240
Speaker 1: that motor mount Do we change the tone or the

83
00:04:25,360 --> 00:04:30,400
Speaker 1: sound of that noise? And if we do, yes, the

84
00:04:30,480 --> 00:04:33,800
Speaker 1: motor mounts are rubber. Yes, the motor mounts have gotten

85
00:04:33,880 --> 00:04:37,919
Speaker 1: hard from age and they don't have the ability to

86
00:04:38,120 --> 00:04:42,960
Speaker 1: suppress vibration anymore. And it's being transmitted transmuted to the

87
00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:45,680
Speaker 1: frame and it's it's you're feeling it throughout the car.

88
00:04:45,760 --> 00:04:51,479
Speaker 1: There's a resonance. My concern is is there another Is

89
00:04:51,520 --> 00:04:54,800
Speaker 1: this related to to um Could body mounts be hard.

90
00:04:54,839 --> 00:04:57,800
Speaker 1: Everything's made of rubber, Everything insulates on rubber. Could we

91
00:04:57,839 --> 00:05:01,360
Speaker 1: have a body mount tissue? Could this be a body

92
00:05:01,400 --> 00:05:04,839
Speaker 1: panel that has vibrated loose over time? So that the

93
00:05:04,880 --> 00:05:08,440
Speaker 1: real question is how certain are they I'm not arguing

94
00:05:08,480 --> 00:05:12,640
Speaker 1: the point. I think they're onto something. But some simple

95
00:05:12,720 --> 00:05:15,279
Speaker 1: tests changing the load, changing you know what gear is

96
00:05:15,279 --> 00:05:18,719
Speaker 1: in that it happens reverse or drive changes the the

97
00:05:18,720 --> 00:05:21,520
Speaker 1: the position or load on the mount, all right, and

98
00:05:21,680 --> 00:05:23,640
Speaker 1: you know, pushing on the mount, prying on it a

99
00:05:23,680 --> 00:05:25,840
Speaker 1: little bit, taking some of the load off, changing it,

100
00:05:26,279 --> 00:05:28,479
Speaker 1: that will do the same thing. The fact that it's

101
00:05:28,520 --> 00:05:30,760
Speaker 1: not there in neutral, but it's there in drive and

102
00:05:30,839 --> 00:05:33,400
Speaker 1: reverse tell me it's engine load. The fact that it

103
00:05:33,400 --> 00:05:36,640
Speaker 1: can be duplicated. Sitting at a stop sign means it

104
00:05:36,640 --> 00:05:40,720
Speaker 1: can be duplicated sitting in an engine bay. And last thought,

105
00:05:41,320 --> 00:05:45,920
Speaker 1: I bet the noise isn't there when it's um, when

106
00:05:45,960 --> 00:05:48,880
Speaker 1: the vehicle is warmer or warm, out is the noise

107
00:05:48,920 --> 00:05:52,880
Speaker 1: there year round? Well, I've only I've had it for

108
00:05:52,920 --> 00:05:56,240
Speaker 1: about three months. But no, I've only had it since

109
00:05:56,240 --> 00:06:00,640
Speaker 1: the winter. I mean think really the first October? Well

110
00:06:00,800 --> 00:06:03,440
Speaker 1: was it? You know, if it's sixty seventy degree weather,

111
00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:09,640
Speaker 1: do you notice the sound? Um? I don't remember. I'm sorry,

112
00:06:10,040 --> 00:06:13,000
Speaker 1: but you see that's and that's a and that's another

113
00:06:13,240 --> 00:06:17,880
Speaker 1: point because how cold is it in Virginia Beach today? Um? Today,

114
00:06:20,160 --> 00:06:22,159
Speaker 1: it's cold? I remember that when I was down there

115
00:06:22,160 --> 00:06:23,920
Speaker 1: doing the car show a couple of weeks ago. It's

116
00:06:23,960 --> 00:06:27,080
Speaker 1: cold in Virginia Beach. Um by that wind comes off

117
00:06:27,160 --> 00:06:29,120
Speaker 1: the ocean and it's you know, it's I'm sure it's

118
00:06:29,160 --> 00:06:31,960
Speaker 1: cold today. And the noises there in the forties. I

119
00:06:31,960 --> 00:06:36,080
Speaker 1: wonder if it was eight degrees does the noise go away?

120
00:06:36,520 --> 00:06:39,080
Speaker 1: Here's the ultimately, That's what I was wondering to right.

121
00:06:39,160 --> 00:06:40,359
Speaker 1: That's why I said to him, I don't want to

122
00:06:40,360 --> 00:06:43,320
Speaker 1: wait till the summer, right right, So here's the question

123
00:06:43,360 --> 00:06:45,120
Speaker 1: for you, and then I gotta go, You gotta go,

124
00:06:45,200 --> 00:06:47,200
Speaker 1: you gotta you gotta talk to the dealer and ask them,

125
00:06:47,240 --> 00:06:49,840
Speaker 1: a is the car in any danger? Is it? Okay?

126
00:06:49,880 --> 00:06:52,000
Speaker 1: If you wait till summer, all right, because you want

127
00:06:52,000 --> 00:06:53,880
Speaker 1: to see what's gonna happen when the weather does get

128
00:06:53,880 --> 00:06:57,719
Speaker 1: warm out? All right? Be how sure are they that

129
00:06:57,800 --> 00:07:01,800
Speaker 1: it's amounts? All right? And then see, um, can you

130
00:07:01,839 --> 00:07:04,000
Speaker 1: give me a firm price, because if it is motor Mans,

131
00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:05,760
Speaker 1: they should be able to estimate that job and come

132
00:07:05,839 --> 00:07:09,200
Speaker 1: up with more than just it's a thousand dollar guests. Um,

133
00:07:09,200 --> 00:07:10,840
Speaker 1: but do those things and if you need me, I'm here,

134
00:07:10,920 --> 00:07:13,560
Speaker 1: call me back. And I appreciate the call. And uh, um,

135
00:07:13,720 --> 00:07:16,040
Speaker 1: nice place, Virginia Beach. I enjoyed my time. Let's get

136
00:07:16,040 --> 00:07:18,240
Speaker 1: over and talk to Matt in Ohio. Matt eighty nine, Bronco.

137
00:07:18,360 --> 00:07:23,680
Speaker 1: What's going on? Matthew? Yeah, Ron, I can hear you.

138
00:07:23,760 --> 00:07:28,920
Speaker 1: Sure what's going on? Okay? Good? Um? The problem is, uh,

139
00:07:29,480 --> 00:07:33,320
Speaker 1: the fuel gage doesn't work. It hasn't never worked since

140
00:07:33,360 --> 00:07:36,360
Speaker 1: I've had it, so I imagine it's probably in the

141
00:07:36,400 --> 00:07:40,000
Speaker 1: field tank with my luck. So my idea was I

142
00:07:40,040 --> 00:07:43,000
Speaker 1: was gonna drop the fuel tank while I'm there, clean

143
00:07:43,080 --> 00:07:46,000
Speaker 1: the fuel tank out, replaced the pump anyway, since I'm there,

144
00:07:46,280 --> 00:07:49,360
Speaker 1: and hopefully they will fix the problem. This is the

145
00:07:49,400 --> 00:07:51,880
Speaker 1: field delivery system where there's a low pressure pump in

146
00:07:51,920 --> 00:07:54,680
Speaker 1: the tank and then there's a reservoir and then it

147
00:07:54,680 --> 00:08:00,280
Speaker 1: goes into a high pressure pump. Um. My question was, uh,

148
00:08:00,520 --> 00:08:02,840
Speaker 1: would it be a good or a bad idea to

149
00:08:03,040 --> 00:08:07,040
Speaker 1: replace that system with just one high pressure pump in

150
00:08:07,040 --> 00:08:09,320
Speaker 1: the fuel tank? Does somebody make it? Does somebody make

151
00:08:09,360 --> 00:08:13,760
Speaker 1: everyplacement module that's just one pump. Then next year they

152
00:08:13,760 --> 00:08:16,480
Speaker 1: went to one single pump and then the same body style.

153
00:08:17,440 --> 00:08:19,800
Speaker 1: If we know that it will work and provide proper

154
00:08:19,800 --> 00:08:22,920
Speaker 1: fuel delivery, same fuel pressure, same parameters. Everything else was

155
00:08:22,960 --> 00:08:28,760
Speaker 1: the same. As far as I know, I'm thinking it's like, yes,

156
00:08:28,880 --> 00:08:31,920
Speaker 1: I probably yes, spec spec engine running on those cars

157
00:08:31,920 --> 00:08:34,319
Speaker 1: with thirty thirty five to forty and then with the

158
00:08:34,400 --> 00:08:36,320
Speaker 1: key on engine off it was thirty five to forty

159
00:08:36,400 --> 00:08:39,439
Speaker 1: five was a good range of motion, you know, fuel delivery,

160
00:08:39,480 --> 00:08:42,720
Speaker 1: fuel delivery without knowing, you know, And I'll be honest,

161
00:08:42,760 --> 00:08:45,199
Speaker 1: I don't remember that they had two pumps in the system.

162
00:08:45,240 --> 00:08:47,760
Speaker 1: And then they went to one My issue is, you know,

163
00:08:47,840 --> 00:08:50,920
Speaker 1: fuel's fuel. We had a we had a big block

164
00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:55,920
Speaker 1: suburban UH eighty six suburban UH four or five months

165
00:08:55,920 --> 00:08:57,920
Speaker 1: ago in the middle of the summer, we couldn't get

166
00:08:58,040 --> 00:09:00,320
Speaker 1: the vehicle to stop going into what all call fuel

167
00:09:00,400 --> 00:09:05,520
Speaker 1: vapor lock and big block, very hot car underneath, very

168
00:09:05,559 --> 00:09:09,200
Speaker 1: hot chassis temperature all the time, and we finally caught

169
00:09:09,240 --> 00:09:11,960
Speaker 1: it in the act. And regardless of fuel pump, regardless

170
00:09:11,960 --> 00:09:14,480
Speaker 1: of what we did, fuel was always vaporized. And I

171
00:09:14,520 --> 00:09:17,320
Speaker 1: think underhood temperatures are so high on that vehicle, I

172
00:09:17,360 --> 00:09:19,600
Speaker 1: think there was a different boil off pressure of fuel

173
00:09:19,640 --> 00:09:23,680
Speaker 1: from eight six verses. We put an electric in tank

174
00:09:24,240 --> 00:09:27,520
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, an electric rail pump on that to help

175
00:09:27,640 --> 00:09:31,720
Speaker 1: feed fuel to the mechanical pump and haven't had a

176
00:09:31,760 --> 00:09:35,320
Speaker 1: problem since. And we tried everything. We tried replacement pumps,

177
00:09:35,360 --> 00:09:39,840
Speaker 1: we you know, we we went the Gamut experimentation. So sometimes, yes,

178
00:09:39,920 --> 00:09:43,000
Speaker 1: an older vehicle you do have to modify. Now my

179
00:09:43,120 --> 00:09:47,320
Speaker 1: question is can you still get a low high fuel

180
00:09:47,320 --> 00:09:50,040
Speaker 1: pressure pump assembly? Can you get a high pressure pump assembly?

181
00:09:50,320 --> 00:09:53,520
Speaker 1: And whose brand would it be? I can still buy

182
00:09:53,600 --> 00:09:56,600
Speaker 1: the high one that and that one's actually motorcraft still

183
00:09:56,600 --> 00:09:58,680
Speaker 1: makes that one at least I can find it online.

184
00:09:58,760 --> 00:10:02,040
Speaker 1: But for the low one, I can't. It's all aftermarkets.

185
00:10:02,040 --> 00:10:06,320
Speaker 1: For the low dump, right, I would. I would if

186
00:10:06,360 --> 00:10:09,840
Speaker 1: it's if it's a motorcraft piece, by all means, I would.

187
00:10:09,960 --> 00:10:13,079
Speaker 1: I would definitely do it. And I would also be curious.

188
00:10:13,520 --> 00:10:15,440
Speaker 1: You know your your level. Let's go back to your

189
00:10:15,440 --> 00:10:19,640
Speaker 1: original complaint. Your original complaint or concern was the fuel gauge.

190
00:10:20,440 --> 00:10:22,800
Speaker 1: You know that should be a zero to ninety or

191
00:10:22,840 --> 00:10:26,200
Speaker 1: a zero to seventy five on gauge um a resistance

192
00:10:26,280 --> 00:10:28,640
Speaker 1: value on the sender. So it should be a fairly

193
00:10:28,679 --> 00:10:30,640
Speaker 1: simple test to do a sweep test and see does

194
00:10:30,640 --> 00:10:33,679
Speaker 1: it sweep high, sweep low? And you know, while you're

195
00:10:33,720 --> 00:10:37,439
Speaker 1: there changing the parts, everything is thirty years old. Yeah exactly,

196
00:10:37,559 --> 00:10:41,040
Speaker 1: you know, clean everything out right, um, but yeah, by

197
00:10:41,120 --> 00:10:43,000
Speaker 1: all means. But as far as swapping it over, I

198
00:10:43,000 --> 00:10:45,120
Speaker 1: would take a look at the wiring diagram, what runs

199
00:10:45,120 --> 00:10:48,200
Speaker 1: the pumps, what's the difference, and if the wiring looks

200
00:10:48,240 --> 00:10:50,480
Speaker 1: the same or something you can just modify. Yeah, I

201
00:10:50,480 --> 00:10:53,080
Speaker 1: would say it's worth a try, especially if you can't

202
00:10:53,120 --> 00:10:55,520
Speaker 1: get especially if you can't get a Ford or a

203
00:10:55,600 --> 00:10:59,160
Speaker 1: motorcraft part. For the vehicle anymore. I would stay away

204
00:10:59,160 --> 00:11:01,959
Speaker 1: from the aftermarkets stuff on something like that. Yeah, I

205
00:11:02,000 --> 00:11:04,760
Speaker 1: didn't think about the current that might be needed down

206
00:11:04,800 --> 00:11:07,319
Speaker 1: by the low pressure pump. Might need a much less current,

207
00:11:07,440 --> 00:11:11,040
Speaker 1: might have a well. And again look at the wiring diagram.

208
00:11:11,080 --> 00:11:14,319
Speaker 1: What what sized fusees feeding the pump circuit on the

209
00:11:14,480 --> 00:11:19,120
Speaker 1: eight nine versus the ninety And if they're both fuses

210
00:11:19,120 --> 00:11:20,319
Speaker 1: and I don't know what they are at the top

211
00:11:20,360 --> 00:11:23,000
Speaker 1: of my head, but if they're both and fuses, then

212
00:11:23,160 --> 00:11:25,520
Speaker 1: you're fine. If it's something higher, then we'd have to

213
00:11:25,559 --> 00:11:27,240
Speaker 1: talk about that a little bit about putting in an

214
00:11:27,240 --> 00:11:29,840
Speaker 1: additional Maybe we wire in a relay and put a

215
00:11:29,880 --> 00:11:32,559
Speaker 1: switching relay back by the pump. They can take higher

216
00:11:32,559 --> 00:11:35,920
Speaker 1: current draw and make it work like that. So but

217
00:11:36,040 --> 00:11:38,080
Speaker 1: let's find out what parts are really available first and

218
00:11:38,080 --> 00:11:42,280
Speaker 1: then we'll go from there. Okay, you're okay to Matthew,

219
00:11:42,280 --> 00:11:44,240
Speaker 1: I'm here if you need me, brother, You're very welcome.

220
00:11:44,320 --> 00:11:47,600
Speaker 1: Eight zero zero. The car doctor is coming back right

221
00:11:47,600 --> 00:11:57,600
Speaker 1: after this. That's right. If you call and we're not live,

222
00:11:57,840 --> 00:11:59,640
Speaker 1: you can leave a message and we'll call you back

223
00:11:59,679 --> 00:12:04,040
Speaker 1: to get on the air with ron Zo. Nine nine

224
00:12:04,160 --> 00:12:07,440
Speaker 1: zero zero. Speaking of ron there. He is a real

225
00:12:07,520 --> 00:12:10,520
Speaker 1: quick for Matthew and Ohio, matt if you're still listening, babe,

226
00:12:10,559 --> 00:12:13,280
Speaker 1: before you change the fuel pump on that Bronco, think

227
00:12:13,280 --> 00:12:16,280
Speaker 1: about two. Is the tank the same will accommodate the

228
00:12:16,320 --> 00:12:19,400
Speaker 1: different fuel pump? And what was the fuel injection system

229
00:12:19,440 --> 00:12:22,320
Speaker 1: or what's the end fuel delivery to the engine the

230
00:12:22,360 --> 00:12:26,920
Speaker 1: other end? Is it the same injection et cetera style system,

231
00:12:27,080 --> 00:12:30,120
Speaker 1: different or same injectors, so on and so forth. So

232
00:12:30,160 --> 00:12:32,040
Speaker 1: some more research has to be done before you just

233
00:12:32,120 --> 00:12:34,200
Speaker 1: make that change. I just wanted to. That popped into

234
00:12:34,240 --> 00:12:35,960
Speaker 1: my head while I sat her thinking about it during

235
00:12:36,000 --> 00:12:38,319
Speaker 1: the break Debbie in Maryland with the eleven escape, you're

236
00:12:38,360 --> 00:12:41,080
Speaker 1: up next? What's going on here? Deb? Well, I don't know.

237
00:12:41,160 --> 00:12:43,800
Speaker 1: Every now and then when we drive and we slow down,

238
00:12:44,040 --> 00:12:47,640
Speaker 1: our two thousand eleven escape makes a clunk sound. Okay,

239
00:12:47,679 --> 00:12:54,320
Speaker 1: how many miles were on it? Um? Maybe? All right? Um?

240
00:12:54,840 --> 00:12:57,640
Speaker 1: You know is it low speed breaking, high speed breaking?

241
00:12:57,720 --> 00:13:00,920
Speaker 1: It doesn't matter, just slowing down in general. Ah, well,

242
00:13:01,000 --> 00:13:04,520
Speaker 1: we don't ever do high speed. Yeah. I mean, you know,

243
00:13:04,559 --> 00:13:07,000
Speaker 1: if you're if you're if you're doing sixty on the

244
00:13:07,080 --> 00:13:08,719
Speaker 1: highway and you slow down to get off an off

245
00:13:08,800 --> 00:13:10,520
Speaker 1: ramp or you're never really out on the highway when

246
00:13:10,559 --> 00:13:13,240
Speaker 1: this happens. Now I think I think it waits until

247
00:13:13,320 --> 00:13:16,400
Speaker 1: we're lower speed. Okay, So it's it's typically as you're

248
00:13:16,440 --> 00:13:20,760
Speaker 1: as you're approaching the stop, so to speak, maybe ten

249
00:13:21,120 --> 00:13:23,240
Speaker 1: eight miles an hour, you're slowing that, and then all

250
00:13:23,280 --> 00:13:25,160
Speaker 1: of a sudden, it's a it's like a thump or

251
00:13:25,160 --> 00:13:30,079
Speaker 1: a clunky very visible, very very audible in the sense

252
00:13:30,120 --> 00:13:32,360
Speaker 1: that if you heal it, you hear it and you

253
00:13:32,440 --> 00:13:35,640
Speaker 1: feel it both at the same time. Correct. Okay, has

254
00:13:35,679 --> 00:13:40,120
Speaker 1: anybody looked at this gone through the front end the suspension, Well,

255
00:13:40,320 --> 00:13:43,360
Speaker 1: we mechanic about it, but and he drove it, but

256
00:13:43,400 --> 00:13:46,560
Speaker 1: it didn't happen anytime he's had it, Okay, so we not.

257
00:13:46,640 --> 00:13:48,720
Speaker 1: He's not really put it on the lift and looked

258
00:13:48,760 --> 00:13:50,640
Speaker 1: at it. All right, So hey, it's got to go

259
00:13:50,679 --> 00:13:52,800
Speaker 1: on a lift. It's got to go on a lift,

260
00:13:52,960 --> 00:13:56,839
Speaker 1: regardless of whether anybody experiences it, because how many times

261
00:13:56,840 --> 00:13:59,880
Speaker 1: I've seen a suspension component, a ball joined the tyrod,

262
00:14:00,360 --> 00:14:03,679
Speaker 1: a strut piece rusted or frozen and it gets stuck

263
00:14:03,720 --> 00:14:06,840
Speaker 1: in one direction and then you know, you go around

264
00:14:06,840 --> 00:14:08,720
Speaker 1: the block, you change the weight of the load on

265
00:14:08,760 --> 00:14:11,319
Speaker 1: the vehicle on that suspension component and pops. You know,

266
00:14:11,360 --> 00:14:13,880
Speaker 1: it's like your arm popping out of your shoulder socket. Right,

267
00:14:13,960 --> 00:14:17,360
Speaker 1: it's it's you know, so so for safety's sake, the

268
00:14:17,400 --> 00:14:19,920
Speaker 1: fact that you're driving it, he's got to look at it,

269
00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:22,280
Speaker 1: you know, Is there a torn dust food? Is there

270
00:14:22,600 --> 00:14:26,720
Speaker 1: is there something physical visual damage that they're that there

271
00:14:26,720 --> 00:14:29,120
Speaker 1: that they might just see. Maybe they're gonna lucky. It's

272
00:14:29,120 --> 00:14:32,200
Speaker 1: a lift rock um a lift right from regular customer.

273
00:14:32,240 --> 00:14:34,920
Speaker 1: The lifts always open. I say, all right, number one,

274
00:14:35,000 --> 00:14:37,760
Speaker 1: number two. Tell them to look carefully at the lower

275
00:14:37,800 --> 00:14:42,640
Speaker 1: control arms. In particular, I believe the elevens. They they're

276
00:14:42,720 --> 00:14:46,640
Speaker 1: rear bushing on the eleven escapes have a habit of

277
00:14:46,760 --> 00:14:50,880
Speaker 1: collapsing or shifting position. If he can take a pride

278
00:14:50,880 --> 00:14:53,680
Speaker 1: bar and pry that bushing to the point where at

279
00:14:53,680 --> 00:14:56,520
Speaker 1: the forms or it's out of shape, that bushing is

280
00:14:56,560 --> 00:15:00,760
Speaker 1: tired and starting to flex, and it's bad, all right.

281
00:15:01,280 --> 00:15:04,160
Speaker 1: I've seen I've seen lower control arms cause clunks on

282
00:15:04,200 --> 00:15:06,800
Speaker 1: these more than once, and it's a little difficult to find.

283
00:15:06,840 --> 00:15:10,400
Speaker 1: So pay attention to that rear lower control arm bushing

284
00:15:10,440 --> 00:15:13,320
Speaker 1: if it's so equipped, if it's that style suspension, depending

285
00:15:13,360 --> 00:15:15,880
Speaker 1: upon all wheel driver, wheel drive, et cetera. If he

286
00:15:16,160 --> 00:15:19,440
Speaker 1: is using if he is replacing the lower control arms,

287
00:15:20,000 --> 00:15:23,680
Speaker 1: absolutely positively has to use a forward part. The aftermarket

288
00:15:23,720 --> 00:15:26,440
Speaker 1: stuff doesn't work in this application. Um, he can. He

289
00:15:26,480 --> 00:15:28,120
Speaker 1: can find it on motorcraft. He can go out the

290
00:15:28,120 --> 00:15:30,920
Speaker 1: motorcraft dot com and dig it up. Um. But afford

291
00:15:30,920 --> 00:15:32,640
Speaker 1: piece is going to be to your advantage and your

292
00:15:32,680 --> 00:15:35,240
Speaker 1: benefit for the life of the vehicle. Um, it's just gonna.

293
00:15:35,320 --> 00:15:37,160
Speaker 1: It's just gonna. It's a it's a nicer sandwich, as

294
00:15:37,160 --> 00:15:41,520
Speaker 1: I like to say. All Right, So, um, you're very welcome.

295
00:15:41,560 --> 00:15:43,560
Speaker 1: You let me if you need more. I'm here for you, kiddo,

296
00:15:43,680 --> 00:15:46,760
Speaker 1: You're very welcome. Ron and Rochester, New York, twenty Honda Odyssey.

297
00:15:46,800 --> 00:15:52,680
Speaker 1: What's going on? Run? Uh yeah, good sir, Yes I

298
00:15:52,760 --> 00:15:59,280
Speaker 1: have Actually it's my father's vehicle. Okay, we just right,

299
00:15:59,360 --> 00:16:04,600
Speaker 1: congratulations and right, thank you. I was just wondering about

300
00:16:04,720 --> 00:16:09,440
Speaker 1: going through a car wash and having the underneath washed

301
00:16:09,720 --> 00:16:15,480
Speaker 1: at the same time. Absolutely, I just didn't. I just took.

302
00:16:15,560 --> 00:16:18,560
Speaker 1: I just took the suburban this morning, my old four

303
00:16:18,640 --> 00:16:23,000
Speaker 1: suburban with seventy thousand miles. It's getting old now. Um. Uh,

304
00:16:23,120 --> 00:16:25,120
Speaker 1: you know it's got all of seventy thousand miles on it.

305
00:16:25,120 --> 00:16:26,880
Speaker 1: It looked like it just rolled out of a soult bath.

306
00:16:27,400 --> 00:16:29,360
Speaker 1: This morning, when one of my kids came home for

307
00:16:29,360 --> 00:16:31,080
Speaker 1: the holidays, I saw this car truck. They said, that

308
00:16:31,120 --> 00:16:33,040
Speaker 1: can't be Dad's truck. It's dirty. I said, that's it.

309
00:16:33,360 --> 00:16:35,120
Speaker 1: I've I've never failed that test. So I had to

310
00:16:35,120 --> 00:16:36,360
Speaker 1: take it to the car wash. I had him do

311
00:16:36,440 --> 00:16:38,720
Speaker 1: the whole thing top, bottom up and down, inside out.

312
00:16:39,240 --> 00:16:43,520
Speaker 1: Now you know, I have no concern over um, what's

313
00:16:43,600 --> 00:16:45,840
Speaker 1: what's your concerned that you know we're gonna shoot water

314
00:16:45,880 --> 00:16:50,200
Speaker 1: into the wrong place on electronics? Uh? Yeah, No, it's

315
00:16:50,280 --> 00:16:52,400
Speaker 1: it's you got to think, you know that when they

316
00:16:52,480 --> 00:16:55,800
Speaker 1: manufacture a vehicle, if you saw the water tunnel that

317
00:16:55,840 --> 00:16:58,200
Speaker 1: they put a vehicle through, you would think they should

318
00:16:58,280 --> 00:17:00,560
Speaker 1: mount the snorkel and a and a and a torpedo

319
00:17:00,560 --> 00:17:02,120
Speaker 1: tube on the front of it, because they almost make

320
00:17:02,120 --> 00:17:05,159
Speaker 1: the thing a submarine. All right. It's it's incredible the

321
00:17:05,200 --> 00:17:07,840
Speaker 1: amount of water they drive these cars through. My only

322
00:17:07,920 --> 00:17:12,600
Speaker 1: concern with car washes is that the car wash uses

323
00:17:12,880 --> 00:17:17,320
Speaker 1: or reclaims or recycles or filters their water to get

324
00:17:17,320 --> 00:17:20,680
Speaker 1: the impurities out. Some car washers don't do a great job,

325
00:17:20,960 --> 00:17:23,600
Speaker 1: and you're basically spreading the salty crumby water from the

326
00:17:23,640 --> 00:17:26,879
Speaker 1: car in front of you onto your car. So you

327
00:17:26,920 --> 00:17:28,840
Speaker 1: know you've got to you've got to talk to them.

328
00:17:29,000 --> 00:17:31,480
Speaker 1: How do you guys handle you know, filtering your water

329
00:17:32,000 --> 00:17:34,560
Speaker 1: and and and see what they say to that? All right?

330
00:17:35,040 --> 00:17:37,120
Speaker 1: But you know, other than that, Yeah, I'm a fan

331
00:17:37,160 --> 00:17:40,240
Speaker 1: of car washes. I've been using car washes for thirty years.

332
00:17:40,560 --> 00:17:42,800
Speaker 1: I go to the better ones. I don't go to

333
00:17:42,840 --> 00:17:45,720
Speaker 1: the self serve car washes where you do it yourself, um,

334
00:17:46,240 --> 00:17:48,320
Speaker 1: you know, or I'll use a hand car wash, depending

335
00:17:48,359 --> 00:17:52,240
Speaker 1: on the vehicle. But by all means absolutely, by all means, yeah,

336
00:17:52,280 --> 00:17:54,640
Speaker 1: that's a big guess, sor um. I have no problems

337
00:17:54,680 --> 00:17:56,840
Speaker 1: with that, and I think you'll get you'll get longer

338
00:17:56,920 --> 00:17:59,240
Speaker 1: life out of the vehicle, all right, sir, And if

339
00:17:59,240 --> 00:18:00,919
Speaker 1: you have any other questions, give us a call back. Hey,

00:18:00,920 --> 00:18:03,080
Speaker 1: we're gonna pull over. Take a pause. Coming up next,

346
00:18:35,280 --> 00:18:37,120
Speaker 1: go over and talk to Let's go talk to Mark

347
00:18:37,160 --> 00:18:41,120
Speaker 1: and Florida tourist. Mark. You're there, sir, Yes, I'm here.

348
00:18:41,359 --> 00:18:43,520
Speaker 1: So what's this? What's this car? Do or not do?

349
00:18:44,040 --> 00:18:46,960
Speaker 1: I don't know how to ask that question? Good? Okay? Yes,

350
00:18:47,000 --> 00:18:52,200
Speaker 1: Like I said, it's tours I like. And when I

351
00:18:52,320 --> 00:18:55,840
Speaker 1: crank everyone in the key, turn everyone in a key,

352
00:18:56,480 --> 00:18:59,560
Speaker 1: it's spins and it acts like it kind of starts.

353
00:18:59,760 --> 00:19:02,840
Speaker 1: I'm it really does it spiers and stuff and it

354
00:19:02,960 --> 00:19:05,920
Speaker 1: kind of like starts a little, you know, a little bit,

355
00:19:06,240 --> 00:19:11,000
Speaker 1: but it won't keep running, don't keep burning. So how

356
00:19:11,040 --> 00:19:14,879
Speaker 1: long has it been doing this? Well, it's sort of

357
00:19:15,240 --> 00:19:18,880
Speaker 1: wherever the weather cools down. You know. You know, I'm

358
00:19:18,880 --> 00:19:20,920
Speaker 1: gonna tell you all too much because I know all

359
00:19:20,960 --> 00:19:26,520
Speaker 1: these listeners might you might be interesting. Um, when the

360
00:19:26,520 --> 00:19:30,840
Speaker 1: weather started cooling down the last year, it wouldn't It

361
00:19:30,880 --> 00:19:35,440
Speaker 1: took expells, it wouldn't start, but then it always kept

362
00:19:35,480 --> 00:19:37,879
Speaker 1: coming back. Let me ask you, Let me ask you

363
00:19:37,920 --> 00:19:40,200
Speaker 1: this question. Let me ask you this question. Mark has

364
00:19:40,240 --> 00:19:43,119
Speaker 1: a mechanic tried to diagnose this when it's in this

365
00:19:43,240 --> 00:19:48,640
Speaker 1: no start scenario. Okay, yeah, I've called different girl. I've

366
00:19:48,640 --> 00:19:52,400
Speaker 1: called different Auto with Rump and I talked to him

367
00:19:52,400 --> 00:19:56,000
Speaker 1: and stuff, and they said it sounds like maybe it's

368
00:19:56,000 --> 00:20:01,240
Speaker 1: just a fuge. So nobody's but nobody's nobody's had nobody's

369
00:20:01,240 --> 00:20:04,960
Speaker 1: put their hands on this car to diagnose it. Not this.

370
00:20:06,000 --> 00:20:07,879
Speaker 1: Let me ask you, hey, Mark, let me ask you

371
00:20:07,920 --> 00:20:13,119
Speaker 1: a question. You're ready, What color shirt am I wearing today?

372
00:20:14,520 --> 00:20:18,719
Speaker 1: Probably blue? No green? So you see, if if you

373
00:20:18,800 --> 00:20:21,240
Speaker 1: can't see me, you can't diagnose the color of my shirt.

374
00:20:21,280 --> 00:20:22,919
Speaker 1: And if I don't see the car hands on, I

375
00:20:22,920 --> 00:20:26,320
Speaker 1: can't diagnose the problem. That's my point. And I'm not

376
00:20:26,880 --> 00:20:28,600
Speaker 1: I'm not I'm not trying to be rude. I'm just

377
00:20:28,640 --> 00:20:32,200
Speaker 1: trying to, you know, stress the point that this to me. See, listen,

378
00:20:32,280 --> 00:20:35,000
Speaker 1: if you give me a broken car, it's a whole

379
00:20:35,000 --> 00:20:37,240
Speaker 1: lot easier to diagnose and repair than the one that's

380
00:20:37,280 --> 00:20:41,200
Speaker 1: doing it intermittently. So if if this is acting up,

381
00:20:41,720 --> 00:20:44,280
Speaker 1: it's and you really want to get it fixed, it's

382
00:20:44,280 --> 00:20:47,119
Speaker 1: got to get towed, all right, It's got to have

383
00:20:47,160 --> 00:20:49,760
Speaker 1: the problem when it gets to the shop, all right,

384
00:20:50,160 --> 00:20:52,680
Speaker 1: it's and and the basic things they want to check,

385
00:20:53,200 --> 00:20:56,080
Speaker 1: what's it missing? Is it missing? Spark, Is it missing

386
00:20:56,119 --> 00:20:59,359
Speaker 1: fuel pressure? Is it missing injector pulse? Those are the

387
00:20:59,359 --> 00:21:01,919
Speaker 1: three things I would look at. Does the check engine

388
00:21:02,000 --> 00:21:03,840
Speaker 1: light light up when you when you turn the key

389
00:21:03,840 --> 00:21:05,760
Speaker 1: to the on position and then go out after a

390
00:21:05,760 --> 00:21:08,679
Speaker 1: five second or two second delay. When you turn the

391
00:21:08,760 --> 00:21:11,920
Speaker 1: key to crank, I'm sorry, turn the key off. Turn

392
00:21:11,960 --> 00:21:14,320
Speaker 1: the key back on after counting to ten. If you

393
00:21:14,600 --> 00:21:17,000
Speaker 1: if you hear the fuel pump run, Do you hear

394
00:21:17,040 --> 00:21:19,639
Speaker 1: the fuel pump run? The fuel pump should prime for

395
00:21:19,720 --> 00:21:23,520
Speaker 1: two to five seconds. If it doesn't, why not? If

396
00:21:23,560 --> 00:21:27,240
Speaker 1: it does crank the car, you may not be able

397
00:21:27,280 --> 00:21:29,399
Speaker 1: to hear it buzzing. Somebody would have to listen with

398
00:21:29,440 --> 00:21:32,000
Speaker 1: the stethoscope at the base of the fuel tank. Does

399
00:21:32,000 --> 00:21:35,040
Speaker 1: the fuel pump continue to run? Doesn't have fuel pressure?

400
00:21:35,359 --> 00:21:38,880
Speaker 1: Here's my point. Here's here's how this diagnosis could go.

401
00:21:39,320 --> 00:21:43,240
Speaker 1: If this has if this is missing spark, injector pulse,

402
00:21:43,560 --> 00:21:46,840
Speaker 1: and fuel pump while cranking, This could be a crank sensor.

403
00:21:47,280 --> 00:21:51,760
Speaker 1: If this is missing. If this is missing just fuel pressure,

404
00:21:51,840 --> 00:21:54,680
Speaker 1: maybe it's a bad pumper or relay. If this is

405
00:21:54,800 --> 00:21:59,000
Speaker 1: missing spark and and so on, we're into a different area.

406
00:21:59,440 --> 00:22:01,600
Speaker 1: We've got an know what we're missing. If this was

407
00:22:01,640 --> 00:22:04,359
Speaker 1: a lawnmower with one cylinder, one spark plug and one

408
00:22:04,480 --> 00:22:09,000
Speaker 1: fuel and UH delivery device? What's missing? Make it simple?

409
00:22:09,160 --> 00:22:11,480
Speaker 1: But the shop's gotta the shop's gotta have their hands

410
00:22:11,560 --> 00:22:14,359
Speaker 1: on it. Because the shop can't answer the phone. And

411
00:22:14,400 --> 00:22:16,320
Speaker 1: I'm amazed the shop would take the time to tell

412
00:22:16,359 --> 00:22:18,480
Speaker 1: you maybe it's a fuse. I would tell you the

413
00:22:18,520 --> 00:22:20,679
Speaker 1: same story. I'm telling you now what color shirt am

414
00:22:20,680 --> 00:22:23,760
Speaker 1: I wearing? Because if I can't see it, I can't

415
00:22:23,800 --> 00:22:26,080
Speaker 1: fix it. But those are the basic things they can

416
00:22:26,119 --> 00:22:29,320
Speaker 1: look at, and I get it. I know it's scary

417
00:22:29,359 --> 00:22:31,760
Speaker 1: sometimes to take it into a repair shop, but brother,

418
00:22:31,800 --> 00:22:33,600
Speaker 1: you gotta bite the bullet and go because it's only

419
00:22:33,600 --> 00:22:35,800
Speaker 1: gonna get worse and leave you high and draw. Hopefully

420
00:22:35,840 --> 00:22:38,359
Speaker 1: you've got a regular mechanic, get it into him and

421
00:22:38,440 --> 00:22:40,960
Speaker 1: let them take a look at it, and um do

422
00:22:41,040 --> 00:22:43,480
Speaker 1: that and if they still can't fix it, call me back.

423
00:22:43,520 --> 00:22:45,320
Speaker 1: But I'll be wearing a different color shirt that day.

424
00:22:45,520 --> 00:22:49,639
Speaker 1: Frank and delaware? What's going on? Frank? How can I help? Hey? Ron? Yes?

425
00:22:51,760 --> 00:22:55,800
Speaker 1: What do you? What's your opinion of it? About Toyota

426
00:22:55,800 --> 00:23:00,159
Speaker 1: a Highlander? Uh? The suv all wheel drive overall, what

427
00:23:00,240 --> 00:23:02,800
Speaker 1: your opinion is, I'm thinking about purchasing that. How many

428
00:23:02,800 --> 00:23:07,840
Speaker 1: miles on it? It's got three? Okay, nice car. My

429
00:23:08,040 --> 00:23:13,439
Speaker 1: one of my daughters is driving a Toyota UM fore Runner.

430
00:23:14,240 --> 00:23:16,720
Speaker 1: I think it's the fore Runner s R five. Yeah,

431
00:23:16,720 --> 00:23:19,920
Speaker 1: I think that sounds right. Um, she likes it. Good

432
00:23:19,960 --> 00:23:23,600
Speaker 1: solid vehicle. I like Toyota's. I like Fords. Uh you know,

433
00:23:23,800 --> 00:23:26,560
Speaker 1: I'm um, I'm not going to mince words. I think

434
00:23:26,640 --> 00:23:28,520
Speaker 1: I think Ford or Toyota or neck and neck in

435
00:23:28,560 --> 00:23:31,800
Speaker 1: my mind right now. Um, you know, listen, I see

436
00:23:31,920 --> 00:23:35,280
Speaker 1: I see issues with all the alleged supercars everybody thinks

437
00:23:35,280 --> 00:23:38,160
Speaker 1: are impervious to fault and failure. I see as many

438
00:23:38,200 --> 00:23:40,399
Speaker 1: broken Hondas and Toyotas as I do Fords in the

439
00:23:40,440 --> 00:23:43,760
Speaker 1: shop as anything else. They all break. Uh you know

440
00:23:43,880 --> 00:23:47,119
Speaker 1: it's it's if if I was out car shopping, it

441
00:23:47,119 --> 00:23:49,960
Speaker 1: would probably be Ford or Toyota, and the edge would

442
00:23:49,960 --> 00:23:52,680
Speaker 1: probably go to Ford. And I still like certain GM models.

443
00:23:53,000 --> 00:23:55,520
Speaker 1: I think GM still builds a great pickup truck. I

444
00:23:55,520 --> 00:23:58,320
Speaker 1: think they build a great suv. Some of their cars

445
00:23:58,520 --> 00:24:02,280
Speaker 1: UM a little shaky on because I see what they're um,

446
00:24:02,280 --> 00:24:04,000
Speaker 1: I see how they hold up or not hold up

447
00:24:04,040 --> 00:24:08,000
Speaker 1: after five or six years. So, um, what's your what's

448
00:24:08,040 --> 00:24:12,240
Speaker 1: your opinion on the all wheel drive versus either two

449
00:24:12,240 --> 00:24:18,040
Speaker 1: wheel drive or even four by four? Where do you live? Yeah?

450
00:24:18,080 --> 00:24:20,639
Speaker 1: You know Delaware? Do you do you get snow? Do

451
00:24:20,720 --> 00:24:26,840
Speaker 1: you get bad weather? Do you you know? Oh? Not

452
00:24:26,840 --> 00:24:29,600
Speaker 1: not that often. I mean it's it's not like where

453
00:24:29,600 --> 00:24:31,720
Speaker 1: you live in Jersey, right, I mean, if there's if

454
00:24:31,760 --> 00:24:34,840
Speaker 1: there's a four wheel drive version of that that you

455
00:24:34,880 --> 00:24:36,840
Speaker 1: can take it in and out of four wheel drive.

456
00:24:37,680 --> 00:24:40,520
Speaker 1: I think four wheel drive as a rule, across the

457
00:24:40,600 --> 00:24:44,000
Speaker 1: manufacturers that are out there today, four wheel drive as

458
00:24:44,000 --> 00:24:45,879
Speaker 1: a rule, so it's four wheel or two wheel and

459
00:24:45,920 --> 00:24:48,359
Speaker 1: you're flipping it in and out. I think it's easier.

460
00:24:48,400 --> 00:24:50,960
Speaker 1: I think it's easier to maintain and cheaper on the pocketbook.

461
00:24:51,440 --> 00:24:54,479
Speaker 1: All right. I don't know that all wheel drive becomes

462
00:24:54,480 --> 00:24:56,840
Speaker 1: the predominant issue that I needed. One of the things

463
00:24:56,880 --> 00:24:59,360
Speaker 1: I see on a lot of vehicles that are four

464
00:24:59,359 --> 00:25:02,800
Speaker 1: wheel versus all wheel. All wheel vehicles as a rule,

465
00:25:03,040 --> 00:25:06,240
Speaker 1: get a little persnickety and snotty. Um, And I'm gonna

466
00:25:06,280 --> 00:25:09,280
Speaker 1: patent that phrase persnickety and snotty when it comes to

467
00:25:09,320 --> 00:25:13,359
Speaker 1: tire diameter. Okay, because you know, if if the front

468
00:25:13,400 --> 00:25:15,520
Speaker 1: tires are worn a little bit more than the rears,

469
00:25:15,600 --> 00:25:17,840
Speaker 1: or a whole lot more than the rears, or one

470
00:25:17,880 --> 00:25:21,000
Speaker 1: tires worn more than the other three, it can affect

471
00:25:21,080 --> 00:25:24,840
Speaker 1: all wheel drive um operation and you know, cause a

472
00:25:24,920 --> 00:25:28,159
Speaker 1: binding and cause certain issues with the vehicle in the

473
00:25:28,200 --> 00:25:31,800
Speaker 1: way that it works. So you know, maybe I've got

474
00:25:32,760 --> 00:25:35,520
Speaker 1: a tire that's got a little less diameter on it's

475
00:25:35,560 --> 00:25:37,840
Speaker 1: starting in July, I can drive that thing in two

476
00:25:37,880 --> 00:25:40,280
Speaker 1: wheel drive all summer and then come winter put four

477
00:25:40,320 --> 00:25:42,240
Speaker 1: new tires on it. You know what I'm saying. It

478
00:25:42,280 --> 00:25:46,520
Speaker 1: gives me more options. Um, you know how much I'll

479
00:25:46,520 --> 00:25:48,560
Speaker 1: say it like this, and I'm gonna talk it from

480
00:25:48,560 --> 00:25:50,359
Speaker 1: me all right. One of the things I've learned about

481
00:25:50,359 --> 00:25:52,880
Speaker 1: myself in life, I tend to panic, and I'll it'll

482
00:25:52,920 --> 00:25:54,920
Speaker 1: always be a jack rabbit move to like. I gotta

483
00:25:54,920 --> 00:25:57,960
Speaker 1: have the biggest, the best, the most, the shiniest, you know,

484
00:25:58,000 --> 00:25:59,760
Speaker 1: I gotta have. I gotta have all wheel drive for

485
00:25:59,840 --> 00:26:01,639
Speaker 1: when a volcano we rup, so I can ride the

486
00:26:01,640 --> 00:26:03,480
Speaker 1: top of the lava to get the heck out of dodge.

487
00:26:03,880 --> 00:26:06,320
Speaker 1: You know what, in all my years, I've never used

488
00:26:06,359 --> 00:26:08,560
Speaker 1: half the stuff I prepped for I'm still prepped. I'm

489
00:26:08,560 --> 00:26:10,439
Speaker 1: a good boy scout. I just don't know that I

490
00:26:10,440 --> 00:26:12,040
Speaker 1: need to be that well prepared. If I've got a

491
00:26:12,160 --> 00:26:14,719
Speaker 1: choice between two wheel drive, four wheel driver, or all

492
00:26:14,720 --> 00:26:17,000
Speaker 1: wheel drive, I'll take the four wheel drive. Does that

493
00:26:17,040 --> 00:26:20,680
Speaker 1: make sense? That makes sense? All right, sir? Thank you much.

494
00:26:20,720 --> 00:26:24,000
Speaker 1: You're very welcome to Christmas. You two, sir, Thank you. Um,

495
00:26:24,359 --> 00:26:26,640
Speaker 1: let's uh should we take one more, Mikey, let's take

496
00:26:26,720 --> 00:26:28,440
Speaker 1: let's take We got a minute. I bet I can

497
00:26:28,440 --> 00:26:29,960
Speaker 1: do it in a minute. Let's do this in a minute.

498
00:26:30,000 --> 00:26:32,920
Speaker 1: Let's go to uh in Nebraska and you got a minute, sir?

499
00:26:32,960 --> 00:26:37,600
Speaker 1: What's going on? Yes, sir? On like your show. UM,

500
00:26:37,800 --> 00:26:42,920
Speaker 1: The question I have is, uh, on these new cars

501
00:26:42,960 --> 00:26:46,119
Speaker 1: where you the stop stop the engine at a stop

502
00:26:46,160 --> 00:26:50,240
Speaker 1: signer or a red light, how do they restarted? Is

503
00:26:50,320 --> 00:26:54,320
Speaker 1: the engine starter used or is it some other magic

504
00:26:54,440 --> 00:26:59,720
Speaker 1: of electronics? Okay, you got both feet on the ground. Okay,

505
00:27:00,160 --> 00:27:03,400
Speaker 1: your your right foot's pushing on the ground. Right, pick

506
00:27:03,480 --> 00:27:07,000
Speaker 1: your right foot up. That's the time that you did

507
00:27:07,119 --> 00:27:09,439
Speaker 1: that you released your right foot from the ground. Is

508
00:27:09,480 --> 00:27:12,200
Speaker 1: the time that it saw you take your foot off

509
00:27:12,240 --> 00:27:15,280
Speaker 1: the brake pedal and it started the car in a

510
00:27:15,320 --> 00:27:17,919
Speaker 1: blink of an eye. And that's what electronics do today.

511
00:27:17,960 --> 00:27:22,480
Speaker 1: It's that simple. Now. The downside is somewhere down the line.

512
00:27:22,840 --> 00:27:24,760
Speaker 1: A lot of us in the industry believe that there's

513
00:27:24,760 --> 00:27:26,760
Speaker 1: gonna be somewhere and tear and other factors that are

514
00:27:26,760 --> 00:27:30,520
Speaker 1: gonna cost these cost more to maintain these stop start vehicles,

515
00:27:30,840 --> 00:27:35,560
Speaker 1: namely quality of oil, viscosity of oil, type, brand, correct oil.

516
00:27:35,800 --> 00:27:38,800
Speaker 1: Oil is a big factor and stop start car. Obviously,

517
00:27:38,840 --> 00:27:41,280
Speaker 1: a battery is a big factor in a stop start car.

518
00:27:41,840 --> 00:27:44,600
Speaker 1: The starters from the ones we've seen go bed and

519
00:27:44,640 --> 00:27:48,040
Speaker 1: have to get replaced, are running somewhere between eleven and

520
00:27:48,080 --> 00:27:51,360
Speaker 1: fift dollars, whereas a starter motor and a traditional car

521
00:27:51,400 --> 00:27:54,919
Speaker 1: of that same body style is in the range. So

522
00:27:54,920 --> 00:27:58,000
Speaker 1: there's a higher cost factor. But they work simply by

523
00:27:58,040 --> 00:28:01,360
Speaker 1: the computers reading brake switch and other factors. And it's

524
00:28:01,480 --> 00:28:04,600
Speaker 1: it's it's it's flipping the switch and starting the car

525
00:28:04,680 --> 00:28:07,160
Speaker 1: back up in the blink of an eye. I appreciate

526
00:28:07,160 --> 00:28:09,679
Speaker 1: the call it and I appreciate the comments. Merry Christmas

527
00:28:09,720 --> 00:28:11,359
Speaker 1: to you and yours. I'm Ron, any of the car doctor.

528
00:28:11,400 --> 00:28:14,679
Speaker 1: We're back right after this. Welcome back. Let's get over

529
00:28:14,720 --> 00:28:20,160
Speaker 1: to Dodge in Delaware, Dodge, Go Dodge, How are you

530
00:28:20,600 --> 00:28:22,399
Speaker 1: shirt on? I can see it? Well, you can see it.

531
00:28:22,600 --> 00:28:24,120
Speaker 1: You know, I didn't change it during the break? What's

532
00:28:24,119 --> 00:28:29,000
Speaker 1: going on? Brother? But I have a two thousand fourteen

533
00:28:29,160 --> 00:28:34,600
Speaker 1: Jeep Grand Cherokee and it says it's four by four.

534
00:28:35,440 --> 00:28:39,400
Speaker 1: But my question is is it really? It depends which

535
00:28:39,400 --> 00:28:42,760
Speaker 1: transfer cases in it. There's a choice of two. There's

536
00:28:42,760 --> 00:28:45,880
Speaker 1: a thirty three or one of them is a single

537
00:28:45,960 --> 00:28:51,080
Speaker 1: speed transfer case that that has what Chrysler brands is quadratrack,

538
00:28:51,520 --> 00:28:54,120
Speaker 1: and then the thirty three has select track, which is

539
00:28:54,120 --> 00:28:56,480
Speaker 1: a two speed on demand act of four wheel drive.

540
00:28:57,200 --> 00:29:01,120
Speaker 1: So which one is it? Now? Theoretically they're both all

541
00:29:01,200 --> 00:29:04,400
Speaker 1: wheel drive, but it depends on interpretation. When you look

542
00:29:04,440 --> 00:29:06,760
Speaker 1: at the shift control, what do you have a little

543
00:29:06,760 --> 00:29:11,560
Speaker 1: shift knob that you spend? Yeah? Right? Does it ever

544
00:29:11,600 --> 00:29:13,479
Speaker 1: give you the option of two wheel drivers? I got

545
00:29:13,480 --> 00:29:16,200
Speaker 1: the picture of the cactus, the sand, the snow and

546
00:29:16,240 --> 00:29:20,000
Speaker 1: all the other non Yeah right, So you've got you've

547
00:29:20,040 --> 00:29:23,000
Speaker 1: got full time four wheel drive. You've really got full

548
00:29:23,040 --> 00:29:26,440
Speaker 1: time all wheel drive that is splitting the torque and

549
00:29:26,440 --> 00:29:29,479
Speaker 1: the load depending upon wheel speed slippage, and it has

550
00:29:29,520 --> 00:29:32,560
Speaker 1: an internal either it's likely the it's probably the one

551
00:29:32,640 --> 00:29:35,920
Speaker 1: speed set up, and it's got the open differential that's

552
00:29:35,960 --> 00:29:38,680
Speaker 1: allowing the transfer case to split the load so it

553
00:29:38,720 --> 00:29:42,560
Speaker 1: doesn't bind on turns. So there's another example. Right, they

554
00:29:42,600 --> 00:29:45,880
Speaker 1: tell you it's four wheel drive, but it's not now

555
00:29:47,360 --> 00:29:51,520
Speaker 1: point right, So it's so now you're into. You know,

556
00:29:51,600 --> 00:29:53,840
Speaker 1: now you're into And I should have pointed this out,

557
00:29:53,880 --> 00:29:55,840
Speaker 1: and I'm glad you brought this up. Before we start

558
00:29:55,920 --> 00:29:59,200
Speaker 1: thinking about playing with tire diameter and sizes based on

559
00:29:59,240 --> 00:30:00,959
Speaker 1: whether it says four a wheel or all wheel. You've

560
00:30:00,960 --> 00:30:03,080
Speaker 1: got to know what you've really got because the marketing

561
00:30:03,120 --> 00:30:05,800
Speaker 1: guys are involved here, the same marketing guys that helped

562
00:30:05,800 --> 00:30:09,520
Speaker 1: create oil change intervals, and they've given us the ability

563
00:30:09,560 --> 00:30:12,560
Speaker 1: now to get totally confused. Sometimes the easiest way is

564
00:30:12,680 --> 00:30:14,160
Speaker 1: put the vehicle up in the air on a lift.

565
00:30:14,240 --> 00:30:16,040
Speaker 1: Drive it at twenty miles an hour. How many wheels

566
00:30:16,040 --> 00:30:18,400
Speaker 1: are turning? Dodge? I appreciate the question. We could chat

567
00:30:18,400 --> 00:30:20,600
Speaker 1: about this for hours. Let me go take Mica as

568
00:30:20,640 --> 00:30:23,400
Speaker 1: my last call this hour. Mica Maine, Yes, sir, what's

569
00:30:23,400 --> 00:30:25,040
Speaker 1: your What have we got here? Mike? Always good to

570
00:30:25,080 --> 00:30:27,320
Speaker 1: talk to you, Always good to talk to you. And

571
00:30:27,400 --> 00:30:30,600
Speaker 1: Marry Christmas to you guys. Um. I saw an article

572
00:30:30,640 --> 00:30:33,240
Speaker 1: of Popular Mechanics magazine, and I always knew this, that

573
00:30:33,320 --> 00:30:35,480
Speaker 1: it's not really good to warm up a car anymore

574
00:30:35,560 --> 00:30:37,240
Speaker 1: like we used to and let him run for a

575
00:30:37,320 --> 00:30:40,000
Speaker 1: long time. But you know, my car is stored outside.

576
00:30:40,000 --> 00:30:41,880
Speaker 1: I don't have a garage, and it's cold up here

577
00:30:41,880 --> 00:30:44,000
Speaker 1: in Maine, and I have a remote start on it.

578
00:30:44,480 --> 00:30:46,200
Speaker 1: I live at the bottom of a hill. Where do

579
00:30:46,200 --> 00:30:48,400
Speaker 1: you think Popular Mechanics is published. What do you think

580
00:30:48,440 --> 00:30:50,360
Speaker 1: those guys live. I wonder if they live in Florida,

581
00:30:51,000 --> 00:30:52,880
Speaker 1: you know, And that's what I always think about. You know,

582
00:30:52,920 --> 00:30:55,080
Speaker 1: I saw the article. I saw the article the same

583
00:30:55,080 --> 00:30:56,680
Speaker 1: when you're talking about Mike, and you know, I thought

584
00:30:56,680 --> 00:30:58,720
Speaker 1: about it the other day. I do the gym in

585
00:30:58,760 --> 00:31:00,920
Speaker 1: the morning. I get up at war, I go to

586
00:31:00,960 --> 00:31:04,640
Speaker 1: the gym for five am. Okay, if you think I'm

587
00:31:04,680 --> 00:31:07,880
Speaker 1: going outside at quarter to five in the morning in

588
00:31:08,000 --> 00:31:11,880
Speaker 1: December into a cold car, and never mind that the

589
00:31:11,920 --> 00:31:14,200
Speaker 1: seats are cold, the cars cold, and the car's moaning

590
00:31:14,240 --> 00:31:17,000
Speaker 1: and growning because it's ten degrees, but there's frost on

591
00:31:17,040 --> 00:31:21,240
Speaker 1: the windshield, there's ice on the windshield. I disagree with them.

592
00:31:21,600 --> 00:31:24,760
Speaker 1: I think it's not unreasonable to warm a car up

593
00:31:24,800 --> 00:31:27,200
Speaker 1: four to six minutes at least, to get it up

594
00:31:27,200 --> 00:31:29,520
Speaker 1: to temperature or close to temperature to the point that

595
00:31:29,600 --> 00:31:32,320
Speaker 1: you can clear the windshield. Because it's a safety issue.

596
00:31:33,000 --> 00:31:35,480
Speaker 1: You're you're you're driving down the road at five in

597
00:31:35,520 --> 00:31:37,720
Speaker 1: the morning or even three in the afternoon, whenever you

598
00:31:37,720 --> 00:31:40,480
Speaker 1: can barely see out the windshield. It's it's a it's

599
00:31:40,480 --> 00:31:44,320
Speaker 1: a problem. I you know, I don't understand. I read

600
00:31:44,320 --> 00:31:47,080
Speaker 1: the article and it talked about how they're worried about

601
00:31:47,280 --> 00:31:49,920
Speaker 1: oils today and the oils aren't able to protect the

602
00:31:49,960 --> 00:31:54,040
Speaker 1: engine under certain circumstances that we're providing contamination to the oil.

603
00:31:54,400 --> 00:31:57,400
Speaker 1: The oils today are so darn good. You know, we're

604
00:31:57,480 --> 00:32:02,120
Speaker 1: all probably changing oil to much just my mechanical opinion.

605
00:32:02,160 --> 00:32:04,760
Speaker 1: I don't have scientific proof of that, but I can

606
00:32:04,800 --> 00:32:08,640
Speaker 1: tell you that I have seen a steady decline of

607
00:32:08,840 --> 00:32:13,400
Speaker 1: engine repairs, engine failures. And I know these people are

608
00:32:13,440 --> 00:32:16,280
Speaker 1: warming up cars. I know nobody's changing their habits. You know.

609
00:32:16,320 --> 00:32:18,200
Speaker 1: It's sort of like, do you think people want to

610
00:32:18,200 --> 00:32:20,160
Speaker 1: do away with Starbucks because they're tired of having that

611
00:32:20,200 --> 00:32:23,600
Speaker 1: big cup of latte coffee? All right? I don't think

612
00:32:23,680 --> 00:32:25,920
Speaker 1: that's going away anytime soon. And I don't think warming

613
00:32:26,000 --> 00:32:28,760
Speaker 1: up the car is going away anytime soon. I personally

614
00:32:28,800 --> 00:32:30,600
Speaker 1: think the real issue with warming up the car that

615
00:32:30,640 --> 00:32:34,000
Speaker 1: has everybody's you know, cackles in an uproar is they're

616
00:32:34,000 --> 00:32:36,560
Speaker 1: worried about the emissions into the environment. And the fact

617
00:32:36,640 --> 00:32:38,560
Speaker 1: is they made the car run so clean. I don't

618
00:32:38,600 --> 00:32:41,760
Speaker 1: know that that's a concern so much anymore either. But

619
00:32:41,800 --> 00:32:43,560
Speaker 1: you know, like I said, I wonder where the publisher.

620
00:32:43,640 --> 00:32:46,120
Speaker 1: I wonder where the writer of that article lives. Probably

621
00:32:46,120 --> 00:32:48,880
Speaker 1: Florida or southern California. Yeah, maybe there you don't need

622
00:32:48,960 --> 00:32:53,000
Speaker 1: to but North Jersey or Maine. At five in the morning, brother,

623
00:32:53,080 --> 00:32:54,719
Speaker 1: you need to warm up the car, and you need

624
00:32:54,760 --> 00:32:57,240
Speaker 1: to warm up an older car simply because of the

625
00:32:57,280 --> 00:33:00,520
Speaker 1: fact that it allows you to find out that something

626
00:33:00,600 --> 00:33:02,680
Speaker 1: break in the middle of the night when the weather

627
00:33:02,800 --> 00:33:05,800
Speaker 1: is cold. Right, And where do you want to be

628
00:33:05,880 --> 00:33:07,960
Speaker 1: when the cool leak starts because of the hose that

629
00:33:08,000 --> 00:33:10,840
Speaker 1: snapped off of the plastic water neck or the plastic radiator.

630
00:33:11,000 --> 00:33:12,560
Speaker 1: Do you want to be three blocks from the house

631
00:33:12,560 --> 00:33:14,840
Speaker 1: and the cold and your and your gym shorts, or

632
00:33:14,880 --> 00:33:16,360
Speaker 1: do you want to be in a warm car finding

633
00:33:16,360 --> 00:33:18,240
Speaker 1: out in the driveway. I want to find out in

634
00:33:18,240 --> 00:33:20,640
Speaker 1: the driveway, Mike, I love you. Merry Christmas to you

635
00:33:20,640 --> 00:33:23,160
Speaker 1: and yours brother. Have a good, safe, healthy, happy New Year. Hey,

636
00:33:23,200 --> 00:33:26,080
Speaker 1: you know coming up next something that's become a very

637
00:33:26,120 --> 00:33:28,360
Speaker 1: big tradition here on the car Doctor would glad to

638
00:33:28,400 --> 00:33:30,760
Speaker 1: present it to you each and every year. I'm Ronanani

639
00:33:30,840 --> 00:33:40,360
Speaker 1: and don't go away, stay tuned. It was the night

640
00:33:40,400 --> 00:33:43,280
Speaker 1: before Christmas, and all through the dark not a car

641
00:33:43,400 --> 00:33:46,440
Speaker 1: was still broken. All the plugs had their spark, the

642
00:33:46,520 --> 00:33:49,040
Speaker 1: wrenches were stashed, all snug in their boxes. Well, me

643
00:33:49,120 --> 00:33:52,560
Speaker 1: by myself was having Christmas party leftovers, some bagels and

644
00:33:52,640 --> 00:33:55,600
Speaker 1: lockses went out from the lot. There rose such a clatter.

645
00:33:55,720 --> 00:33:58,040
Speaker 1: I sprang to my feet and yelled, hey, what's the

646
00:33:58,080 --> 00:34:01,800
Speaker 1: matter now? What to my bloodshot, tired eyes should appear?

647
00:34:01,960 --> 00:34:06,280
Speaker 1: But some crazy old guy went sleigh with reindeer. I winced,

648
00:34:06,280 --> 00:34:08,640
Speaker 1: and I cried, oh great, just one more. I'd rather

649
00:34:08,640 --> 00:34:10,560
Speaker 1: sit back, have a cup of tea and some s'moores.

650
00:34:11,040 --> 00:34:13,399
Speaker 1: And he approached the front door with a smile so bright.

651
00:34:13,440 --> 00:34:16,280
Speaker 1: I quickly unlocked it and turned back on the office life.

652
00:34:16,760 --> 00:34:19,759
Speaker 1: Excuse me, kind servant, I'm having some trouble. The left

653
00:34:19,800 --> 00:34:22,840
Speaker 1: runner on my sleigh has started to wubble. The balance

654
00:34:22,920 --> 00:34:24,920
Speaker 1: is wrong and it pulls to the right. The reindeer

655
00:34:24,920 --> 00:34:27,719
Speaker 1: are working too hard this cold night. I have so

656
00:34:27,800 --> 00:34:29,759
Speaker 1: much to do and no time left to do it.

657
00:34:29,840 --> 00:34:32,359
Speaker 1: Do you think that it could well? Please get right

658
00:34:32,400 --> 00:34:35,200
Speaker 1: to it? Without saying a word, I went to work

659
00:34:35,280 --> 00:34:37,680
Speaker 1: right away, to bed the alignment machine and no specs

660
00:34:37,680 --> 00:34:41,120
Speaker 1: for a sledg. Meanwhile, the reindeer were prancing around that

661
00:34:41,200 --> 00:34:44,200
Speaker 1: root up in common with a couple of clowns. In

662
00:34:44,239 --> 00:34:47,680
Speaker 1: a matter of moments time one point too, the runner

663
00:34:47,719 --> 00:34:50,359
Speaker 1: was straight in the alignment done too. I helped him

664
00:34:50,360 --> 00:34:52,800
Speaker 1: load up all the presents but one. He left it

665
00:34:52,880 --> 00:34:55,560
Speaker 1: to pay me for cash he had none. I hope

666
00:34:55,560 --> 00:34:58,040
Speaker 1: it's from snap on a half inch drive air gun.

667
00:34:58,719 --> 00:35:01,080
Speaker 1: He started the sleigh by me, really calling their names

668
00:35:01,280 --> 00:35:04,200
Speaker 1: on desh Er and Dancer, Donner and Blitzen. Get up

669
00:35:04,239 --> 00:35:07,960
Speaker 1: off your butts, Rudolph comment, Vixen. It started to idle

670
00:35:08,000 --> 00:35:09,920
Speaker 1: and float in the air. Then Rudolph lit up the

671
00:35:09,960 --> 00:35:13,560
Speaker 1: sky with his nose extraordinary, and I heard him exclaim,

672
00:35:13,960 --> 00:35:16,360
Speaker 1: this could have been quite a mess. The car doctor

673
00:35:16,520 --> 00:35:34,320
Speaker 1: rings true. The mechanics aren't expensive, they're really priceless. And

674
00:35:34,320 --> 00:35:41,800
Speaker 1: and Chris lessas me
