What's 40 00:02:03,680 --> 00:02:06,280 Speaker 1: my favorite thing? There's got to be something that keeps 41 00:02:06,280 --> 00:02:09,280 Speaker 1: me doing it all these years. And I think I 42 00:02:09,320 --> 00:02:11,600 Speaker 1: got a taste of it yesterday again and I had 43 00:02:11,639 --> 00:02:14,880 Speaker 1: forgotten this. I like the oneness. Do you know what 44 00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:20,640 Speaker 1: oneness is, you know, one with the subject. And I 45 00:02:20,680 --> 00:02:23,320 Speaker 1: like the oneness and I like the purpose of it. 46 00:02:23,360 --> 00:02:28,359 Speaker 1: At times, we have a very very old customer, regular 47 00:02:28,400 --> 00:02:32,919 Speaker 1: customer um for the shop came in this week yesterday. 48 00:02:32,960 --> 00:02:34,880 Speaker 1: It was an oil change. Look the car over. It 49 00:02:34,960 --> 00:02:36,920 Speaker 1: was a two thousand five Mercury. It was a little 50 00:02:36,919 --> 00:02:40,160 Speaker 1: bit older. And you know, she needs the car all 51 00:02:40,160 --> 00:02:42,959 Speaker 1: the time. There's some medical situations in the family where 52 00:02:42,960 --> 00:02:46,960 Speaker 1: her having a car is very, very important. And it 53 00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:50,400 Speaker 1: was supposed to be a routine oil change. And during 54 00:02:50,440 --> 00:02:52,480 Speaker 1: the course of the routine oil change, I got around 55 00:02:52,480 --> 00:02:56,360 Speaker 1: to it late morning. You know, it became that the 56 00:02:56,400 --> 00:03:00,320 Speaker 1: air conditioning compressor was about to fail. It had a leak, 57 00:03:00,400 --> 00:03:03,079 Speaker 1: and the pulley was in bad shape. And if she 58 00:03:03,200 --> 00:03:05,320 Speaker 1: lost the A C compressor, she's gonna lose the belt. 59 00:03:05,360 --> 00:03:08,400 Speaker 1: And then the car stops. And you know one thing 60 00:03:08,440 --> 00:03:10,440 Speaker 1: I've learned over the years, you can't have the car stop. 61 00:03:10,520 --> 00:03:12,799 Speaker 1: You can't have the car stop for the little old 62 00:03:12,840 --> 00:03:15,400 Speaker 1: lady that's driving someone to the doctor in the middle 63 00:03:15,400 --> 00:03:20,400 Speaker 1: of a medical emergency, like bad thing. And I found 64 00:03:20,400 --> 00:03:23,040 Speaker 1: one this again, and I haven't found one this for 65 00:03:23,080 --> 00:03:27,480 Speaker 1: a while because I got a hold of her. It 66 00:03:27,560 --> 00:03:29,680 Speaker 1: was about lunchtime at this point when I got around 67 00:03:29,680 --> 00:03:31,800 Speaker 1: to making the phone call and I explained the situation. 68 00:03:31,919 --> 00:03:33,200 Speaker 1: I said, you know, you really need an A C 69 00:03:33,320 --> 00:03:36,000 Speaker 1: compressor and I can do it, but I don't know 70 00:03:36,040 --> 00:03:38,480 Speaker 1: that I'll finish it one day, one shot, you know, 71 00:03:38,720 --> 00:03:42,080 Speaker 1: sort of unexpected. It was, you know, I've got to 72 00:03:42,080 --> 00:03:43,840 Speaker 1: do this and I've got other cars to get done. 73 00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:46,000 Speaker 1: And you know, then I realized that, you know, the 74 00:03:46,040 --> 00:03:49,240 Speaker 1: scope of the problem that needed a car for the weekend, 75 00:03:50,640 --> 00:03:54,200 Speaker 1: and thus the journey began. I ordered parts A C 76 00:03:54,360 --> 00:03:58,520 Speaker 1: compressor and a dryer. And it's important to note that Ford, 77 00:03:58,600 --> 00:04:01,360 Speaker 1: like a lot of the Fords of this era, they 78 00:04:01,400 --> 00:04:03,840 Speaker 1: I don't know four engineers, most really like doing things 79 00:04:03,840 --> 00:04:06,160 Speaker 1: on the ground because they mount the A C compressor 80 00:04:06,280 --> 00:04:09,320 Speaker 1: down close. It's it's it's underneath everything, all right, And 81 00:04:09,600 --> 00:04:12,280 Speaker 1: this is no different. Why would they you know, it's 82 00:04:12,320 --> 00:04:16,560 Speaker 1: buried all right, and it's it's a good couple of 83 00:04:16,600 --> 00:04:20,080 Speaker 1: hours work. It's it's just solid stuff. And then you've 84 00:04:20,120 --> 00:04:23,599 Speaker 1: got twelve years of of rust and crudd and you know, 85 00:04:23,640 --> 00:04:26,680 Speaker 1: welcome to New Jersey. You know, Salt Brian and everything 86 00:04:26,680 --> 00:04:28,480 Speaker 1: else we can throw on there to corrode some metal 87 00:04:28,520 --> 00:04:31,080 Speaker 1: to make it difficult to take apart in the mix, 88 00:04:31,200 --> 00:04:33,640 Speaker 1: and all of a sudden you've got an afternoon's worth 89 00:04:33,680 --> 00:04:37,560 Speaker 1: of work. And all the time you're doing this, I'm 90 00:04:37,560 --> 00:04:40,880 Speaker 1: thinking to myself, like I gotta do this, and I'm um, 91 00:04:40,920 --> 00:04:45,160 Speaker 1: you know, And it felt really good. It was the oneness. 92 00:04:45,200 --> 00:04:47,960 Speaker 1: I was in the groove. I knew what wrenches. I 93 00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:50,120 Speaker 1: was gonna reach for three wrenches before I had the 94 00:04:50,160 --> 00:04:51,640 Speaker 1: last one in my hand. I knew what the next 95 00:04:51,640 --> 00:04:53,920 Speaker 1: four steps were gonna be, and then the next five steps, 96 00:04:53,920 --> 00:04:56,520 Speaker 1: in the next six steps, and I was cooking baby. 97 00:04:57,000 --> 00:05:00,280 Speaker 1: I really had a good time, you know. The rest 98 00:05:00,320 --> 00:05:02,160 Speaker 1: of the work in the shop got taken care of. 99 00:05:02,680 --> 00:05:04,960 Speaker 1: We put some Actually, what what did we play? I 100 00:05:04,960 --> 00:05:06,760 Speaker 1: think we played a little Frank Sinatra. We played Little 101 00:05:06,760 --> 00:05:09,560 Speaker 1: Frank Satra on Amazon Music. Filled the shop, a little 102 00:05:09,600 --> 00:05:12,840 Speaker 1: relaxing Frank. And it was as he made it his way, 103 00:05:13,160 --> 00:05:16,680 Speaker 1: I did it my way, and it felt really good. 104 00:05:17,279 --> 00:05:19,760 Speaker 1: At five minutes to five, to pick up the phone 105 00:05:19,760 --> 00:05:24,760 Speaker 1: and go, Mary, your car is done. And she said, 106 00:05:24,800 --> 00:05:26,359 Speaker 1: I knew you would get it done. She said, I 107 00:05:26,400 --> 00:05:28,240 Speaker 1: wasn't sure how, or I wasn't sure if you would 108 00:05:28,240 --> 00:05:29,640 Speaker 1: even get it done on time, but I knew you'd 109 00:05:29,640 --> 00:05:31,640 Speaker 1: stay late to finish it. And I just made it 110 00:05:31,680 --> 00:05:34,240 Speaker 1: by five o'clock, just in the nick of time. Compressor 111 00:05:34,320 --> 00:05:37,760 Speaker 1: dryer and charged the A C. And it was, you know, 112 00:05:37,800 --> 00:05:40,520 Speaker 1: forty two degrees and um, everything was right where it 113 00:05:40,520 --> 00:05:44,120 Speaker 1: was supposed to be. And I really enjoyed that. I 114 00:05:44,200 --> 00:05:48,479 Speaker 1: really enjoyed the oneness. And I think that's important. I 115 00:05:48,480 --> 00:05:50,479 Speaker 1: I think it's important for a lot of reasons. Someone 116 00:05:50,560 --> 00:05:51,760 Speaker 1: once said to me, Hey, what do you do for 117 00:05:51,800 --> 00:05:53,679 Speaker 1: a living, And I said, I don't work. I fixed cars, 118 00:05:54,640 --> 00:05:56,280 Speaker 1: and you know, I get to do this thing on 119 00:05:56,320 --> 00:06:00,240 Speaker 1: the weekend we called the radio show, and you know 120 00:06:00,320 --> 00:06:03,640 Speaker 1: it's I've been very fortunate, and I wish that for you. 121 00:06:03,760 --> 00:06:05,400 Speaker 1: If you're listening to me in the sound of my 122 00:06:05,440 --> 00:06:08,160 Speaker 1: voice today, I hope you find oneness. I think it's important. 123 00:06:08,200 --> 00:06:10,640 Speaker 1: I think I think finding something you like doing. I 124 00:06:10,680 --> 00:06:15,760 Speaker 1: think finding something within that thing you do to make 125 00:06:15,800 --> 00:06:17,279 Speaker 1: you who you are and what you do during the 126 00:06:17,279 --> 00:06:19,400 Speaker 1: course of the day is really important. I think it 127 00:06:19,480 --> 00:06:22,160 Speaker 1: just gives you that, you know, it gives you that 128 00:06:22,240 --> 00:06:26,200 Speaker 1: it's your it, it's your reason for being here. And 129 00:06:26,960 --> 00:06:28,960 Speaker 1: I hope I never lose oneness. I hope I never 130 00:06:29,040 --> 00:06:37,400 Speaker 1: lose that desire two overcome the problem because it's really 131 00:06:37,440 --> 00:06:41,640 Speaker 1: important to me. I I really enjoy digging down and 132 00:06:41,640 --> 00:06:44,520 Speaker 1: getting into the root of why something is broken or 133 00:06:44,600 --> 00:06:46,200 Speaker 1: just trying to fix it and fix it in a 134 00:06:46,240 --> 00:06:48,640 Speaker 1: timely manner or you know. I never thought I'd like 135 00:06:48,720 --> 00:06:50,960 Speaker 1: being that hero, but you know what, you still like 136 00:06:51,040 --> 00:06:54,080 Speaker 1: being that hero to a degree. Um, you know, there's 137 00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:56,120 Speaker 1: still there's still a huge part of that in me. 138 00:06:58,760 --> 00:07:01,240 Speaker 1: And I've got to tell you that that's the best 139 00:07:01,240 --> 00:07:04,480 Speaker 1: part of order repair. Yeah, making the living and and 140 00:07:04,480 --> 00:07:07,360 Speaker 1: and there's a lot of good things, but that oneness 141 00:07:07,360 --> 00:07:09,800 Speaker 1: and helping somebody thick something like that, coming to the 142 00:07:09,840 --> 00:07:12,400 Speaker 1: rescuing an emergency. Maybe that's how I ended up here. 143 00:07:13,120 --> 00:07:15,200 Speaker 1: I don't know, but that was the best part of 144 00:07:15,200 --> 00:07:18,200 Speaker 1: my week, and um, I really enjoyed it. So I 145 00:07:18,240 --> 00:07:20,080 Speaker 1: just wanted to share that thought with you and uh, 146 00:07:20,440 --> 00:07:22,120 Speaker 1: tell you what's going on. And that was the kind 147 00:07:22,160 --> 00:07:23,920 Speaker 1: of week we had. I hope you had a one 148 00:07:24,000 --> 00:07:27,160 Speaker 1: this week and um that the cars you were working 149 00:07:27,200 --> 00:07:28,960 Speaker 1: on or whatever it was you had to overcome this weekend. 150 00:07:28,960 --> 00:07:31,960 Speaker 1: If you didn't call me at eight five, nine nine 151 00:07:32,000 --> 00:07:33,720 Speaker 1: zero and we can talk about it. By the way, 152 00:07:33,800 --> 00:07:38,360 Speaker 1: we've been talking about oil changes of late and the 153 00:07:38,360 --> 00:07:40,720 Speaker 1: extended oil change, and I had a thought about this, 154 00:07:40,760 --> 00:07:42,160 Speaker 1: and I don't think I don't know if I've hit 155 00:07:42,200 --> 00:07:44,600 Speaker 1: this before, and I probably have, but I feel like 156 00:07:44,680 --> 00:07:47,120 Speaker 1: the urge to do it again. I had this conversation 157 00:07:47,160 --> 00:07:48,720 Speaker 1: with someone else at the counter this week. We were 158 00:07:48,720 --> 00:07:52,440 Speaker 1: talking about the one year oil change, and you know 159 00:07:52,480 --> 00:07:55,360 Speaker 1: how they're trying to drag oil changes out for a year. 160 00:07:56,440 --> 00:07:58,720 Speaker 1: And I can tell you know that's that's really where 161 00:07:58,760 --> 00:08:02,720 Speaker 1: the industry is going. And whether it's government intervention or 162 00:08:02,840 --> 00:08:05,720 Speaker 1: EPA groups, environmental groups, whatever it is, they want less 163 00:08:05,800 --> 00:08:07,840 Speaker 1: drain oil, waste oil cars are getting better and I 164 00:08:07,880 --> 00:08:10,080 Speaker 1: get all that, and yeah, YadA YadA ya, and you 165 00:08:10,160 --> 00:08:12,679 Speaker 1: guys can send your oil out the Keystone, black Stone Labs, 166 00:08:12,720 --> 00:08:16,240 Speaker 1: whatever the heck it is, and it's great. Here's the 167 00:08:16,280 --> 00:08:18,680 Speaker 1: problem with extended oil changes. And I think we've had 168 00:08:18,760 --> 00:08:20,800 Speaker 1: this conversation. I just want to have it one more time. 169 00:08:21,680 --> 00:08:23,840 Speaker 1: I want to know who's paying me to check tire pressure, 170 00:08:23,840 --> 00:08:25,720 Speaker 1: because I've decided we're gonna have to charge for it. 171 00:08:25,760 --> 00:08:28,240 Speaker 1: Maybe that's why I want to talk about this. And 172 00:08:28,280 --> 00:08:30,560 Speaker 1: I think other repair shops are going to have to 173 00:08:30,600 --> 00:08:34,960 Speaker 1: do that, because when the day comes for that car 174 00:08:35,040 --> 00:08:37,640 Speaker 1: that's got a one year oil change, someone's gonna have 175 00:08:37,720 --> 00:08:39,959 Speaker 1: to come in. In the mid term, someone's gonna have 176 00:08:39,960 --> 00:08:41,640 Speaker 1: to come in. There's four seasons in a year at 177 00:08:41,720 --> 00:08:44,160 Speaker 1: least in most parts of the country, and someone's gonna 178 00:08:44,160 --> 00:08:46,040 Speaker 1: have to check tire pressure on a regular basis. Someoney's 179 00:08:46,040 --> 00:08:48,640 Speaker 1: gonna have to check fluids on a regular basis. Somebody's 180 00:08:48,640 --> 00:08:52,000 Speaker 1: gonna have to do the due diligence that they do 181 00:08:52,120 --> 00:08:55,280 Speaker 1: during an oil change at least two maybe three times 182 00:08:55,280 --> 00:08:58,680 Speaker 1: a year. And who's gonna pay for that? So the 183 00:08:58,800 --> 00:09:02,000 Speaker 1: value in going to that ended oil train interval, I 184 00:09:02,040 --> 00:09:05,120 Speaker 1: don't see it. I still don't see it. I see 185 00:09:05,160 --> 00:09:10,080 Speaker 1: it as making more work and unnecessary risk. Someone said 186 00:09:10,080 --> 00:09:13,280 Speaker 1: to me this week, and we're back to that oneness thing. 187 00:09:14,080 --> 00:09:16,760 Speaker 1: Someone said to me this week. I was bringing their 188 00:09:16,800 --> 00:09:20,760 Speaker 1: car in first time customer, and I said, well, here's 189 00:09:20,800 --> 00:09:24,280 Speaker 1: how I would do it. And he said to me, Ron, 190 00:09:24,480 --> 00:09:27,600 Speaker 1: you don't know me from Adam, but trust me, the 191 00:09:27,640 --> 00:09:30,040 Speaker 1: reason I'm there is because I want you to do 192 00:09:30,080 --> 00:09:32,360 Speaker 1: it how you would do it, and not anybody else. 193 00:09:33,320 --> 00:09:36,800 Speaker 1: He said, because I know you'll do it right. I 194 00:09:36,840 --> 00:09:39,080 Speaker 1: don't know is that ego or is that just the 195 00:09:39,120 --> 00:09:40,920 Speaker 1: fact and that's just the fact that that's what he said. 196 00:09:40,960 --> 00:09:42,720 Speaker 1: You know what, I think there's a lot of ways 197 00:09:42,760 --> 00:09:44,319 Speaker 1: to do it right. I just think some ways are 198 00:09:44,320 --> 00:09:48,360 Speaker 1: more right than others. Eight five zero the car doctors 199 00:09:48,400 --> 00:09:50,880 Speaker 1: coming back to Kickers garage doors wide open right after 200 00:09:50,880 --> 00:10:00,000 Speaker 1: this stick around, welcome back car docate zero nine nine 201 00:10:00,120 --> 00:10:02,040 Speaker 1: zero zero. Let's get over the busy phones. Let's go 202 00:10:02,120 --> 00:10:04,840 Speaker 1: open the garage doors and talk to Walton, Maui, Hawaii. 203 00:10:05,400 --> 00:10:09,120 Speaker 1: Mr Walter, welcome back, sir. Have you been good? Thank you? 204 00:10:09,200 --> 00:10:13,040 Speaker 1: Good morning? Yes, sir, um afternoon there. Well, yeah, I understand. Listen, 205 00:10:13,360 --> 00:10:15,319 Speaker 1: the most important thing whenever we talked to you out 206 00:10:15,360 --> 00:10:19,400 Speaker 1: there in the beautiful islands. How's the weather today? Oh 207 00:10:19,480 --> 00:10:25,280 Speaker 1: it's boring. It's dropped down into the high seventies. And 208 00:10:25,040 --> 00:10:28,040 Speaker 1: the and and the ocean temperature. You're killing us, Walt, 209 00:10:30,080 --> 00:10:36,560 Speaker 1: I won't tell you that. Uh warm, Yeah, how warm? 210 00:10:37,120 --> 00:10:40,360 Speaker 1: I don't have a number, but I'm sure it's in 211 00:10:40,440 --> 00:10:46,200 Speaker 1: the seventies someplate. Walter. I'm gonna retire to Hawaii so 212 00:10:46,280 --> 00:10:49,520 Speaker 1: we can do radio from anywhere, So welcome and visit Yeah, 213 00:10:49,600 --> 00:10:52,360 Speaker 1: we'll have to do that. We'll come out on remote. Uh. 214 00:10:53,360 --> 00:10:56,680 Speaker 1: Part about living Hawaii is you get no no sympathy 215 00:10:56,720 --> 00:10:58,800 Speaker 1: from anybody. You can tell him your car won't start, 216 00:10:58,880 --> 00:11:02,200 Speaker 1: or your cat ran away or whatever, and they say, oh, yeah, 217 00:11:02,200 --> 00:11:04,000 Speaker 1: but you live in a way. Yeah, but why would 218 00:11:04,000 --> 00:11:05,680 Speaker 1: the cat run away? Look where it gets to live? 219 00:11:06,920 --> 00:11:11,319 Speaker 1: That's true. What's going on today? Okay? My my nine 220 00:11:11,720 --> 00:11:15,960 Speaker 1: corvette you know see four LT one. Uh, when you 221 00:11:16,000 --> 00:11:18,600 Speaker 1: open the left door, the courtesy lights don't come on, 222 00:11:18,840 --> 00:11:21,480 Speaker 1: but they come on. Find went from the dash switch 223 00:11:21,640 --> 00:11:24,960 Speaker 1: or from the right hand door when it opens, and 224 00:11:25,280 --> 00:11:27,880 Speaker 1: the switch is good. It's got continuity when the door 225 00:11:28,000 --> 00:11:31,360 Speaker 1: is open and none when it's closed. When I temporary, 226 00:11:32,080 --> 00:11:35,080 Speaker 1: when I ground one of the wires, the lights comes on, 227 00:11:35,280 --> 00:11:38,000 Speaker 1: but they stay on as long as they're ground it. 228 00:11:38,480 --> 00:11:41,559 Speaker 1: When I momentarily ground them, they come on, and then 229 00:11:41,600 --> 00:11:44,400 Speaker 1: the stones about thirty sex and go off as they should. 230 00:11:45,559 --> 00:11:48,560 Speaker 1: And I'm kind of perplexed. And where to go from here? Yeah, 231 00:11:48,559 --> 00:11:50,959 Speaker 1: it doesn't make any sense. That's just a two wire switch. 232 00:11:51,000 --> 00:11:54,640 Speaker 1: You've got an orange in a white orange orange is 233 00:11:54,679 --> 00:11:58,160 Speaker 1: hot and white as the feed back to the the 234 00:11:58,240 --> 00:12:03,120 Speaker 1: module for the interior lights. UM that doesn't make any 235 00:12:03,160 --> 00:12:05,600 Speaker 1: sense to me if you and you're you're grounding the 236 00:12:05,640 --> 00:12:10,280 Speaker 1: white one. Correct? Actually it's can but yes you're correct 237 00:12:11,200 --> 00:12:14,199 Speaker 1: because you know, because it's funny. I just worked on 238 00:12:14,200 --> 00:12:15,800 Speaker 1: one of these two weeks ago, and the one I 239 00:12:15,880 --> 00:12:18,679 Speaker 1: had was orange and white. It was a why are 240 00:12:18,720 --> 00:12:23,800 Speaker 1: you seeing a tan? Well? I think maybe it's just 241 00:12:23,880 --> 00:12:25,520 Speaker 1: the age of the wire. It could have been a 242 00:12:25,559 --> 00:12:32,000 Speaker 1: white white Okay, because the way that should work is, well, 243 00:12:32,080 --> 00:12:34,280 Speaker 1: let's do this. What if we take apart the courtesy 244 00:12:34,360 --> 00:12:36,400 Speaker 1: lamp on the right door, even though the right door 245 00:12:36,480 --> 00:12:41,479 Speaker 1: is working, and what if you repeat those same tests 246 00:12:42,280 --> 00:12:46,440 Speaker 1: on the right door. I wonder if, I wonder if 247 00:12:46,440 --> 00:12:50,760 Speaker 1: you would get the same result. And if you do that, 248 00:12:50,840 --> 00:12:52,920 Speaker 1: I'm gonna say what you're looking at as a function 249 00:12:53,040 --> 00:12:56,680 Speaker 1: of the electronics, because there is a module built into 250 00:12:56,720 --> 00:12:59,520 Speaker 1: this circuit that controls this, and I wonder if if 251 00:12:59,760 --> 00:13:03,800 Speaker 1: we're if we're picking up something as a result of 252 00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:09,760 Speaker 1: the the way the module itself works. So I don't 253 00:13:09,760 --> 00:13:11,640 Speaker 1: want to I don't want to get confused. Now I 254 00:13:11,679 --> 00:13:14,600 Speaker 1: know you're gonna say that even though the switch tests good, 255 00:13:16,640 --> 00:13:23,479 Speaker 1: how are you testing the switch home test? Uh? Just continuity? 256 00:13:23,679 --> 00:13:27,680 Speaker 1: And I I'm embarrassed to say I replaced it with 257 00:13:27,760 --> 00:13:30,960 Speaker 1: a new switch. Even the old one tested good. It's okay, 258 00:13:31,679 --> 00:13:34,240 Speaker 1: don't be embarrassed. You know what, look at look at 259 00:13:34,320 --> 00:13:36,280 Speaker 1: look at how Edison invented the light bulb. We had 260 00:13:36,280 --> 00:13:39,839 Speaker 1: more than a few failures, right, Um. I just kind 261 00:13:39,840 --> 00:13:43,280 Speaker 1: of figured that it was so likely that it was 262 00:13:43,320 --> 00:13:45,880 Speaker 1: a switch that I just want ahead and replaced it, 263 00:13:46,040 --> 00:13:48,760 Speaker 1: right yeah, because there's there's really nothing here. This is 264 00:13:48,760 --> 00:13:51,200 Speaker 1: a two wire switch. They go back to a main splice, 265 00:13:51,840 --> 00:13:54,760 Speaker 1: and then those off of that splice feeds the diode 266 00:13:54,760 --> 00:13:58,720 Speaker 1: module UM for the interior lights. And then that's what 267 00:13:58,960 --> 00:14:02,640 Speaker 1: that's what triggers all this. Um. You know, I have 268 00:14:02,679 --> 00:14:05,480 Speaker 1: a factory service manual and I booked on them, and 269 00:14:05,559 --> 00:14:08,080 Speaker 1: I think every page in a stupid two book manual, 270 00:14:08,360 --> 00:14:12,600 Speaker 1: and I cannot find where that wire goes to the 271 00:14:12,600 --> 00:14:15,480 Speaker 1: one that I ground it. You know, I can find 272 00:14:15,520 --> 00:14:17,400 Speaker 1: it in the door, I can find it everybody. But 273 00:14:17,600 --> 00:14:21,520 Speaker 1: I can't there's a a gap in the wiring diagram 274 00:14:21,560 --> 00:14:26,200 Speaker 1: that shows where the wire comes from and goes to. Well, okay, 275 00:14:26,240 --> 00:14:28,160 Speaker 1: so I guess I'm I guess I'm emailing Walter. A 276 00:14:28,200 --> 00:14:31,120 Speaker 1: wiring diagram is what you're telling me UM if you 277 00:14:32,320 --> 00:14:35,600 Speaker 1: because I know, I know I have it, UM that 278 00:14:35,720 --> 00:14:38,960 Speaker 1: will go, that will come out. All all the all 279 00:14:39,000 --> 00:14:44,720 Speaker 1: the courtesy lamp triggers come off of a UM the 280 00:14:44,760 --> 00:14:46,800 Speaker 1: white wires, they go to a central splice and then 281 00:14:46,800 --> 00:14:49,760 Speaker 1: they go back to a module because interestingly, you know, 282 00:14:49,760 --> 00:14:52,880 Speaker 1: they're running I believe this was early can bus stuff, 283 00:14:53,440 --> 00:14:58,200 Speaker 1: because they're running the trigger for the courtesy lamps through 284 00:14:58,240 --> 00:15:00,480 Speaker 1: that module as well, on the same line that it's 285 00:15:00,480 --> 00:15:07,800 Speaker 1: getting input signal for the UM doors themselves. Okay, so 286 00:15:07,880 --> 00:15:09,800 Speaker 1: let me ask you. Let me ask you this that 287 00:15:09,800 --> 00:15:14,080 Speaker 1: that new switch that you got, UM was it an 288 00:15:14,080 --> 00:15:18,080 Speaker 1: after market something? Was it an OI something? What was it? 289 00:15:18,080 --> 00:15:22,760 Speaker 1: It was from General Motors? Okay, okay? And I tested 290 00:15:22,800 --> 00:15:26,520 Speaker 1: it also, you know, for for continuity, and it's you know, 291 00:15:26,560 --> 00:15:30,400 Speaker 1: when it's on, there's continuity. When it's closed, there's not continuity. 292 00:15:30,400 --> 00:15:33,160 Speaker 1: There's there's no trick to it. It's pretty simple, all right. 293 00:15:33,800 --> 00:15:38,160 Speaker 1: So then let's let's let's just try those tests that 294 00:15:38,200 --> 00:15:41,760 Speaker 1: you're doing to the right side door, because I don't 295 00:15:41,760 --> 00:15:44,280 Speaker 1: believe there's any difference in the wiring of that vehicle 296 00:15:44,520 --> 00:15:46,920 Speaker 1: left to right and it should all be the same. 297 00:15:47,280 --> 00:15:48,800 Speaker 1: So I want to see if you do those same 298 00:15:48,840 --> 00:15:52,120 Speaker 1: exact tests left to right, do you get the same result? 299 00:15:52,920 --> 00:15:56,400 Speaker 1: And I'm betting, I'm betting you will, all right, And 300 00:15:56,440 --> 00:15:58,480 Speaker 1: then we'll have to follow up with the wiring diagram 301 00:15:58,480 --> 00:16:02,200 Speaker 1: and see what information that gives us. Help me this run? 302 00:16:02,720 --> 00:16:08,360 Speaker 1: Uh the Yeah, it's when you when you ground it 303 00:16:08,440 --> 00:16:12,480 Speaker 1: momentarily the light comes on that goes off in thirty seconds. 304 00:16:13,480 --> 00:16:15,520 Speaker 1: If you leave it ground it, you know, the light 305 00:16:15,560 --> 00:16:20,000 Speaker 1: will not go back off. Where does the timer come 306 00:16:20,080 --> 00:16:23,200 Speaker 1: in the modules? It's picking it out of the module. 307 00:16:24,480 --> 00:16:28,600 Speaker 1: And that my is that a can I look at 308 00:16:28,720 --> 00:16:32,400 Speaker 1: module by number? Is that a certain are you talking 309 00:16:32,400 --> 00:16:34,760 Speaker 1: about this? Is it part of the CPU or something? No? 310 00:16:34,880 --> 00:16:37,600 Speaker 1: I believe that is a separate module itself for the 311 00:16:37,680 --> 00:16:41,240 Speaker 1: interior lights. Where exactly where exactly it is in the car? 312 00:16:41,280 --> 00:16:43,120 Speaker 1: I don't know off the top of my head, but 313 00:16:43,200 --> 00:16:46,000 Speaker 1: I know it. I know it does exist. Well, would 314 00:16:46,000 --> 00:16:48,440 Speaker 1: be someplace very hard to get to, of course. Just 315 00:16:48,800 --> 00:16:50,560 Speaker 1: what I would what I would probably do is lie 316 00:16:50,560 --> 00:16:52,800 Speaker 1: on your back under the debt, under the driver's side 317 00:16:52,800 --> 00:16:55,200 Speaker 1: of the dish, and when the door jam hurts your 318 00:16:55,240 --> 00:16:57,680 Speaker 1: back to the point that you want to scream, you're 319 00:16:57,680 --> 00:16:59,760 Speaker 1: probably in the right position under the desk, try and 320 00:16:59,800 --> 00:17:02,240 Speaker 1: get to it. But you know, because it's it's never 321 00:17:02,280 --> 00:17:06,640 Speaker 1: an easy spot. Yeah, it's it's never an easy spots. 322 00:17:06,680 --> 00:17:08,560 Speaker 1: And the plugs in the same car, So I know, 323 00:17:08,640 --> 00:17:12,840 Speaker 1: I feel your pain about changing the It's it's a 324 00:17:12,840 --> 00:17:16,600 Speaker 1: blood letting, it really is. Yeah. In fact, I gave 325 00:17:16,680 --> 00:17:18,400 Speaker 1: up on one of them. I hate to admit that too, 326 00:17:18,440 --> 00:17:20,720 Speaker 1: but I ended up not changing the wires but I 327 00:17:20,720 --> 00:17:25,320 Speaker 1: couldn't get it loose from the distributor. Yeah. It um. 328 00:17:25,800 --> 00:17:28,600 Speaker 1: I'll tell you what General Motors and I won't say 329 00:17:28,640 --> 00:17:30,879 Speaker 1: they're they're they're the best data, but they're definitely in 330 00:17:30,920 --> 00:17:33,800 Speaker 1: the top three manufacturers for making things difficult to gain 331 00:17:33,840 --> 00:17:36,240 Speaker 1: access to. One of the things I've learned about GM 332 00:17:36,320 --> 00:17:39,800 Speaker 1: over the years is and hopefully they're getting better in time, 333 00:17:39,840 --> 00:17:43,160 Speaker 1: and I think they are. I'm not convinced they are 334 00:17:43,280 --> 00:17:47,160 Speaker 1: the leader in layered auto repair. Take three things apart 335 00:17:47,240 --> 00:17:51,359 Speaker 1: to get to one, and that's that's a minimum. Yeah, 336 00:17:51,440 --> 00:17:54,480 Speaker 1: and that's you know, doing an intake manifold on a 337 00:17:54,520 --> 00:17:57,640 Speaker 1: GM anything, you know, it's thinking about this. Two weeks ago, 338 00:17:57,680 --> 00:18:00,280 Speaker 1: I had to do an intake on a three eight 339 00:18:00,400 --> 00:18:05,400 Speaker 1: early nineties GM, you know, with the aluminum motor, and 340 00:18:05,480 --> 00:18:07,960 Speaker 1: I was thinking, my god, where did this company come from? 341 00:18:08,040 --> 00:18:10,679 Speaker 1: What happened to my small block Chevy? Uh? You know, 342 00:18:10,800 --> 00:18:13,240 Speaker 1: sixteen vaults out it comes or full faults out it 343 00:18:13,240 --> 00:18:15,919 Speaker 1: comes in a way we go and I don't know, Walter, 344 00:18:16,080 --> 00:18:18,239 Speaker 1: send me your email, send me a reminder Ron at 345 00:18:18,240 --> 00:18:20,400 Speaker 1: Car Doctor show dot com. I'll get a wiring diagram 346 00:18:20,400 --> 00:18:22,080 Speaker 1: out to you. Good talking to you once again, sir, 347 00:18:22,200 --> 00:18:24,120 Speaker 1: I'm running any in the Car Doctor. We are back 348 00:18:24,240 --> 00:18:37,399 Speaker 1: right after this? Welcome back? Why don't they name the 349 00:18:37,400 --> 00:18:40,640 Speaker 1: car doctor here? Eight five zero nine zero zero. Let's 350 00:18:40,680 --> 00:18:43,240 Speaker 1: get over and talk to is that Joseph in which 351 00:18:43,240 --> 00:18:45,720 Speaker 1: you talk Kansas and see what's going on here? Welcome 352 00:18:45,720 --> 00:18:48,640 Speaker 1: to the Car Doctor Joseph. How can I help? Hey? 353 00:18:48,960 --> 00:18:52,840 Speaker 1: M how's it going good? Sir? What's cooking? Well? Uh? 354 00:18:53,160 --> 00:18:57,520 Speaker 1: I was just gonna puzzle your brain for a minute, right, Um. 355 00:18:58,359 --> 00:19:03,280 Speaker 1: What do you think of accurate a digital stage cluster? 356 00:19:04,000 --> 00:19:08,920 Speaker 1: More accurate a digital cluster or an analog cluster? What 357 00:19:09,080 --> 00:19:13,760 Speaker 1: kind of vehicle? Uh? Just any type of vehicle. I 358 00:19:13,760 --> 00:19:17,600 Speaker 1: don't think it matters. I mean give me it. For instance, 359 00:19:18,160 --> 00:19:24,960 Speaker 1: you gotta have a car in mind. For instance, Oldsmobile yeah, 360 00:19:24,960 --> 00:19:26,520 Speaker 1: I don't think it matters. I think if you want 361 00:19:26,560 --> 00:19:30,920 Speaker 1: true accuracy, if you want dead on accuracy, you're gonna 362 00:19:30,960 --> 00:19:34,520 Speaker 1: you're gonna install a mechanical gauge in a car, uh, 363 00:19:34,640 --> 00:19:38,360 Speaker 1: you know, an electric an electric tach versus a mechanical tech. 364 00:19:39,200 --> 00:19:41,239 Speaker 1: You know, if if you want true accuracy, if it's 365 00:19:41,240 --> 00:19:44,840 Speaker 1: a performance application, chances are that mechanical tech is going 366 00:19:44,880 --> 00:19:48,240 Speaker 1: to outperform that that electric tech to what level and 367 00:19:48,320 --> 00:19:51,359 Speaker 1: what degree and what's the necessity of it depends on 368 00:19:51,400 --> 00:19:54,119 Speaker 1: the situation, you know, believe it or not. The hot 369 00:19:54,200 --> 00:19:56,280 Speaker 1: rod's got an electric tech, and it's got an autometer 370 00:19:56,600 --> 00:19:59,080 Speaker 1: electric tech, and it's got a it's got a shift light, 371 00:19:59,160 --> 00:20:01,800 Speaker 1: and it's got a uh, it's got a rev limit 372 00:20:01,880 --> 00:20:04,280 Speaker 1: or in it. So if by chance the old man 373 00:20:04,480 --> 00:20:06,720 Speaker 1: misses a gear and revs it past a grand, it 374 00:20:06,720 --> 00:20:10,800 Speaker 1: will shut down. Um. You know, it's it's it's good 375 00:20:10,880 --> 00:20:13,399 Speaker 1: enough for what I'm doing on the street. You know, 376 00:20:14,080 --> 00:20:16,399 Speaker 1: if you're asking me in terms of an eighty nine 377 00:20:16,440 --> 00:20:19,240 Speaker 1: oldsmobile for an oil pressure gauge or or a water 378 00:20:19,320 --> 00:20:21,879 Speaker 1: temperature gauge or something like that, I don't think it's 379 00:20:21,880 --> 00:20:24,760 Speaker 1: gonna matter. I really don't. Uh. You know, I think 380 00:20:24,760 --> 00:20:27,280 Speaker 1: if you want, if you want dead on accuracy, put 381 00:20:27,320 --> 00:20:30,600 Speaker 1: a mechanical gauge in the car. So I think the 382 00:20:30,720 --> 00:20:34,719 Speaker 1: difference of choice between analog or digital would really come 383 00:20:34,760 --> 00:20:38,159 Speaker 1: back to it's more of a look thing. And you know, 384 00:20:38,240 --> 00:20:39,800 Speaker 1: what are you? What are you? What are you looking? 385 00:20:39,880 --> 00:20:42,359 Speaker 1: What's your appeal? And you know, I've got to tell you. 386 00:20:42,800 --> 00:20:45,560 Speaker 1: I see some of these digital clusters. I'll talk specifically. 387 00:20:46,400 --> 00:20:48,400 Speaker 1: I see a lot of fifty five Chevies. I see 388 00:20:48,400 --> 00:20:50,280 Speaker 1: a lot of cars from the fifties and the sixties 389 00:20:50,320 --> 00:20:54,440 Speaker 1: with these digital clusters in them. I just my opinion, 390 00:20:55,200 --> 00:20:57,480 Speaker 1: I think it takes away the romance of the car. 391 00:20:58,280 --> 00:21:00,399 Speaker 1: I I just don't think it looks good. I think 392 00:21:00,400 --> 00:21:01,720 Speaker 1: you're trying to take an old car and make it 393 00:21:01,800 --> 00:21:03,480 Speaker 1: look modern. You might as well have a modern version 394 00:21:03,520 --> 00:21:05,760 Speaker 1: of that car if they make it. Uh, you know. 395 00:21:06,080 --> 00:21:09,360 Speaker 1: But here's the thing. If they came with the factory. 396 00:21:10,760 --> 00:21:14,200 Speaker 1: You know, we've seen a lot of these older vehicles 397 00:21:14,920 --> 00:21:19,240 Speaker 1: like the Chrysler le Baron for an example, or whatever, 398 00:21:19,400 --> 00:21:22,880 Speaker 1: they came out with a digital cluster from the factory, 399 00:21:23,119 --> 00:21:26,520 Speaker 1: is right, yes, and and that's and that's fine I'm 400 00:21:26,560 --> 00:21:29,359 Speaker 1: talking about. I see a lot of guys take sixty 401 00:21:29,440 --> 00:21:32,320 Speaker 1: five Mustangs and put digital clusters in them. It's just 402 00:21:32,720 --> 00:21:35,200 Speaker 1: just not my thing. I just you know, I I'm 403 00:21:35,359 --> 00:21:37,960 Speaker 1: I'm I'm worried about accuracy at that level. To me, 404 00:21:38,040 --> 00:21:41,399 Speaker 1: it's a look uh you know. But then again, you 405 00:21:41,480 --> 00:21:43,240 Speaker 1: know not to not to get the subject off on 406 00:21:43,280 --> 00:21:46,960 Speaker 1: a tangent. But then again, that's like putting bucket seats 407 00:21:46,960 --> 00:21:51,399 Speaker 1: and a console from a seventy Challenger into a sixty Mustang. 408 00:21:51,480 --> 00:21:53,680 Speaker 1: I just don't get it. You're just changing the whole 409 00:21:53,720 --> 00:21:56,639 Speaker 1: look of the interior. You know. These guys take fifty 410 00:21:56,680 --> 00:21:58,920 Speaker 1: five Chevies and they put consoles in the middle with 411 00:21:59,760 --> 00:22:01,719 Speaker 1: D D D players and everything else, and they make 412 00:22:01,760 --> 00:22:03,680 Speaker 1: it look like a rocket ship. Dude, it's a fifty 413 00:22:03,720 --> 00:22:06,000 Speaker 1: five Chevy. It's supposed to be mechanical. Leave it alone, 414 00:22:06,800 --> 00:22:10,679 Speaker 1: you know. So. Uh. But just in reference to digital 415 00:22:10,760 --> 00:22:14,680 Speaker 1: or analog, I think it's a it's a personal opinion. 416 00:22:15,200 --> 00:22:17,720 Speaker 1: I think they're both equally as accurate, or they're only 417 00:22:17,800 --> 00:22:20,480 Speaker 1: as accurate as the senders and the wiring they're connected to. 418 00:22:21,160 --> 00:22:23,240 Speaker 1: And if you're a performance application and you're looking for 419 00:22:23,359 --> 00:22:26,000 Speaker 1: something dead on, you're gonna put a mechanical gauge in 420 00:22:26,040 --> 00:22:31,439 Speaker 1: the vehicle. Can I make some comments about the rocket 421 00:22:31,520 --> 00:22:37,480 Speaker 1: car you were talking about? Absolutely, I don't. I don't 422 00:22:37,560 --> 00:22:41,960 Speaker 1: think we're ready at all, because we can we can 423 00:22:42,160 --> 00:22:47,919 Speaker 1: barely even maintain automobiles today. I mean, I was walking 424 00:22:48,040 --> 00:22:52,879 Speaker 1: home from Mark this morning and this Oldsmobile just drives 425 00:22:53,000 --> 00:22:56,320 Speaker 1: by in the smoking, real bad from the exhaust, and 426 00:22:56,480 --> 00:23:00,400 Speaker 1: you wonder, is this person ever gonna know what's going 427 00:23:00,480 --> 00:23:03,520 Speaker 1: on with their engine and at all? Well, and yeah, 428 00:23:03,880 --> 00:23:07,200 Speaker 1: just drive and drive and drive and drive their vehicles 429 00:23:07,280 --> 00:23:09,399 Speaker 1: into the ground to the point where they're going to 430 00:23:09,480 --> 00:23:12,440 Speaker 1: get broken, right, And the difference is there they're on 431 00:23:12,520 --> 00:23:16,159 Speaker 1: the ground when they're you know, three thousand feet in 432 00:23:16,240 --> 00:23:18,440 Speaker 1: the air. I'm assuming there's gonna be a ceiling height 433 00:23:18,520 --> 00:23:20,480 Speaker 1: for the limit of how high Google car can go. 434 00:23:21,520 --> 00:23:23,440 Speaker 1: You know, like my father once told me, you can't 435 00:23:23,440 --> 00:23:25,240 Speaker 1: pull over and park on a cloud while you want 436 00:23:25,280 --> 00:23:26,880 Speaker 1: to chew in the car buretor bit to be sure 437 00:23:26,920 --> 00:23:30,040 Speaker 1: you're right before the plane takes off. And you know, 438 00:23:30,160 --> 00:23:32,000 Speaker 1: there's no getting no, there's no getting away from that. 439 00:23:32,240 --> 00:23:35,159 Speaker 1: I had. I had an email this week from someone 440 00:23:35,280 --> 00:23:37,719 Speaker 1: that said, and they were commenting on the flying car 441 00:23:37,840 --> 00:23:40,080 Speaker 1: scenario and the Uber flying car and the Google flying 442 00:23:40,119 --> 00:23:42,760 Speaker 1: car and what have you. And they said, so, does 443 00:23:42,840 --> 00:23:44,399 Speaker 1: that mean in order to get a flying car you 444 00:23:44,480 --> 00:23:49,000 Speaker 1: can have to get a pilot's license? You know, I 445 00:23:49,080 --> 00:23:53,680 Speaker 1: don't know. I'll tell you this. The technology is there. 446 00:23:53,960 --> 00:23:56,720 Speaker 1: I think they could do it tomorrow if they wanted to. 447 00:23:57,280 --> 00:24:01,320 Speaker 1: The problem is it is an impact act on society, 448 00:24:01,440 --> 00:24:04,359 Speaker 1: and it will change society in ways that we are 449 00:24:04,560 --> 00:24:11,560 Speaker 1: clearly not ready for. In Chrysler is going across the 450 00:24:11,680 --> 00:24:17,800 Speaker 1: board to cloud based scan tool, so in order to 451 00:24:17,920 --> 00:24:20,920 Speaker 1: scan a model year Chrysler and I think the rest 452 00:24:20,960 --> 00:24:23,919 Speaker 1: of the car companies are gonna follow suit. But the story, 453 00:24:24,000 --> 00:24:26,200 Speaker 1: the report I read, says that Chrysler will go to 454 00:24:26,320 --> 00:24:29,600 Speaker 1: a cloud based scan tool, meaning I will plug into 455 00:24:29,640 --> 00:24:32,600 Speaker 1: the O B D two connector under the dashboard and 456 00:24:33,240 --> 00:24:36,480 Speaker 1: the scan tool will have half of the security code. 457 00:24:37,240 --> 00:24:40,080 Speaker 1: The other half of the security code will come to 458 00:24:40,160 --> 00:24:44,359 Speaker 1: the scan tool via the cloud. The reason Chrysler is 459 00:24:44,440 --> 00:24:46,440 Speaker 1: doing this is because they are trying to make the 460 00:24:46,560 --> 00:24:51,679 Speaker 1: systems not hackable. If you want to see something really scary, 461 00:24:51,760 --> 00:24:55,560 Speaker 1: go out to YouTube and just search uh you know, 462 00:24:55,840 --> 00:24:59,720 Speaker 1: G pack, G pack, j E E P hack h 463 00:24:59,840 --> 00:25:02,199 Speaker 1: A c K and look at this video of these 464 00:25:02,240 --> 00:25:04,200 Speaker 1: two guys This is the story from a year or 465 00:25:04,240 --> 00:25:07,440 Speaker 1: so back. They took control of this late model jeep 466 00:25:08,119 --> 00:25:11,600 Speaker 1: while the person was driving it, windows up, windows down, 467 00:25:11,720 --> 00:25:13,840 Speaker 1: to control of the steering, to control of the break, 468 00:25:13,920 --> 00:25:19,880 Speaker 1: took control of acceleration. And the problem is good. You've 469 00:25:19,920 --> 00:25:23,359 Speaker 1: seen the show bait car right where they shut down 470 00:25:23,520 --> 00:25:29,359 Speaker 1: like the like they want to try and uh, somebody 471 00:25:29,400 --> 00:25:31,880 Speaker 1: wants to try and steal the vehicle, but they get 472 00:25:31,960 --> 00:25:36,360 Speaker 1: so far and then they shut the vehicle down that show. Yeah, 473 00:25:36,440 --> 00:25:38,200 Speaker 1: and there and there and and this is sort of 474 00:25:38,240 --> 00:25:41,520 Speaker 1: the things they're working on. However, because there are jerks 475 00:25:41,560 --> 00:25:43,480 Speaker 1: in the world and people that don't you know, it's 476 00:25:43,840 --> 00:25:49,040 Speaker 1: because of terrorism. They're worried that cars are susceptible to 477 00:25:49,200 --> 00:25:54,399 Speaker 1: terroristic attack. And what the concern becomes is that and 478 00:25:54,480 --> 00:25:57,639 Speaker 1: it doesn't have to be a lot, but just imagine 479 00:25:58,320 --> 00:26:01,560 Speaker 1: imagine ten thousand ares being hacked in a region of 480 00:26:01,600 --> 00:26:06,640 Speaker 1: the country, all being told to stop, start accelerate. Ten 481 00:26:06,720 --> 00:26:10,359 Speaker 1: thousand cars out of control. That's ten thousand. Think about 482 00:26:10,400 --> 00:26:12,280 Speaker 1: how many cars are on the roads in this country 483 00:26:12,520 --> 00:26:18,600 Speaker 1: every day. For that won't have the terrorist attacks still 484 00:26:18,800 --> 00:26:23,800 Speaker 1: with the automobiles that we have today. And with that note, 485 00:26:24,320 --> 00:26:29,440 Speaker 1: now imagine it's a flying car. You know. In the Jetsons, 486 00:26:30,680 --> 00:26:34,119 Speaker 1: everybody was nice and happy, right except for Mr space Ley. 487 00:26:34,640 --> 00:26:36,520 Speaker 1: Mr space Lee was always made at George because he 488 00:26:36,600 --> 00:26:39,119 Speaker 1: was always late to work or something. All Right, they 489 00:26:39,160 --> 00:26:43,280 Speaker 1: didn't have the problems we had today. And until society 490 00:26:43,400 --> 00:26:46,359 Speaker 1: gets its act together and realizes we're all one on 491 00:26:46,440 --> 00:26:48,560 Speaker 1: the planet trying to go somewhere and get there the 492 00:26:48,640 --> 00:26:51,360 Speaker 1: best way we can, we gotta start working together, man. 493 00:26:51,760 --> 00:26:54,440 Speaker 1: And that's the deal. You know, a rising tide lifts 494 00:26:54,480 --> 00:26:56,200 Speaker 1: al boats if you want to if you want to 495 00:26:56,240 --> 00:26:58,320 Speaker 1: get to the stars, you got to figure out what's 496 00:26:58,359 --> 00:27:00,280 Speaker 1: going on on this planet and straighten this land it 497 00:27:00,320 --> 00:27:02,520 Speaker 1: out first. And that's why it'll be a while before 498 00:27:02,560 --> 00:27:06,000 Speaker 1: we have flying cars. I was gonna say, we're not 499 00:27:06,119 --> 00:27:09,399 Speaker 1: even close to remote like Star Trek at all. No. 500 00:27:10,440 --> 00:27:13,640 Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, most of our tech, nil knowledgey came 501 00:27:13,800 --> 00:27:17,639 Speaker 1: from Star Trek, I won't deny that. But where we 502 00:27:18,480 --> 00:27:24,040 Speaker 1: are not even ready at all. No, it's well, you 503 00:27:24,119 --> 00:27:27,560 Speaker 1: know what, and and yeah, and I'll tell you this 504 00:27:27,640 --> 00:27:30,240 Speaker 1: story real quick, Josef. And then I'm gonna go. I 505 00:27:30,400 --> 00:27:32,680 Speaker 1: think it's because we do it to ourselves and we 506 00:27:32,760 --> 00:27:34,480 Speaker 1: all have to learn how to be prepared, and we 507 00:27:34,520 --> 00:27:36,120 Speaker 1: all have to learn how to take care of each other, 508 00:27:36,280 --> 00:27:39,000 Speaker 1: and we're not doing that. I know this isn't about cars, Well, 509 00:27:39,040 --> 00:27:42,240 Speaker 1: this is sort of about cars. Yesterday, all right, I 510 00:27:42,359 --> 00:27:45,840 Speaker 1: was at the deli. My day started with three state 511 00:27:45,880 --> 00:27:48,800 Speaker 1: troopers came in from out of town and they had breakfast. 512 00:27:49,119 --> 00:27:51,040 Speaker 1: And as I always do, I always take care of 513 00:27:51,080 --> 00:27:53,320 Speaker 1: the boys in blue. I took care of breakfast for 514 00:27:53,400 --> 00:27:56,080 Speaker 1: him without them knowing about it. And just it's just because, 515 00:27:56,520 --> 00:27:58,240 Speaker 1: you know what, let these guys that go out there 516 00:27:58,280 --> 00:27:59,879 Speaker 1: and protect us from the bad guys know that some 517 00:28:00,040 --> 00:28:01,680 Speaker 1: but he cares about him as so many people do. 518 00:28:02,359 --> 00:28:05,359 Speaker 1: The end of my day was the woman in the 519 00:28:05,400 --> 00:28:07,520 Speaker 1: parking lot at the stopping shop. I came out from 520 00:28:07,560 --> 00:28:10,960 Speaker 1: getting groceries and her hood was up. I knew what 521 00:28:11,119 --> 00:28:13,639 Speaker 1: that meant. I had my go big. Everybody needs to 522 00:28:13,680 --> 00:28:15,160 Speaker 1: get a go big. I think this is gonna become 523 00:28:15,200 --> 00:28:17,639 Speaker 1: a car doctor mandate. I have a go big. All right. 524 00:28:18,080 --> 00:28:20,040 Speaker 1: You want to to my go bag among other things. 525 00:28:20,040 --> 00:28:22,760 Speaker 1: I have a small jumper pack. I put my groceries away, 526 00:28:22,800 --> 00:28:24,359 Speaker 1: I took my go bag out. I took a jumper 527 00:28:24,400 --> 00:28:26,359 Speaker 1: pack out, walked up to her car and knocked on 528 00:28:26,440 --> 00:28:28,160 Speaker 1: the window. She was in tears on the phone trying 529 00:28:28,200 --> 00:28:29,640 Speaker 1: to get help. I looked at her and I said 530 00:28:30,240 --> 00:28:32,240 Speaker 1: jump start and she just looked at me, like, really 531 00:28:32,880 --> 00:28:35,119 Speaker 1: jumped the car, started it up. Can I give you 532 00:28:35,119 --> 00:28:37,240 Speaker 1: any money? No, man, that's quite all right, she said, 533 00:28:37,320 --> 00:28:40,920 Speaker 1: My god, you're like the lone Ranger. That's right. I 534 00:28:41,000 --> 00:28:42,880 Speaker 1: gotta get some silver wrenches and I can hand them 535 00:28:42,920 --> 00:28:45,520 Speaker 1: out like bullets and say you've been car doctored. But 536 00:28:45,600 --> 00:28:48,480 Speaker 1: you know what, that just made her feel better. And 537 00:28:48,640 --> 00:28:50,400 Speaker 1: that's what we've got to do to each other. If 538 00:28:50,440 --> 00:28:52,640 Speaker 1: you want to get the flying cars. It starts with 539 00:28:52,760 --> 00:28:55,400 Speaker 1: the process of society, and it starts with how we 540 00:28:55,520 --> 00:28:58,200 Speaker 1: care about each other. And that's what's so damn important. 541 00:28:59,480 --> 00:29:03,000 Speaker 1: It's a plane, it's super run. It's super run in 542 00:29:03,040 --> 00:29:04,880 Speaker 1: a flying car. You knows. If I gotta go, I'm 543 00:29:04,920 --> 00:29:06,920 Speaker 1: running past the clock. Thanks for the call, man, I 544 00:29:06,960 --> 00:29:11,200 Speaker 1: appreciate it. Eight zero zero zero, I'm flying back right 545 00:29:11,280 --> 00:29:20,480 Speaker 1: after this. Welcome back car doctor. As we roll along 546 00:29:20,520 --> 00:29:25,040 Speaker 1: at zero nine zero zero, Mr Ray, you have a comments. Well, yeah, yeah, 547 00:29:25,280 --> 00:29:27,000 Speaker 1: I'm a little confused. I was on the phone with 548 00:29:27,080 --> 00:29:30,480 Speaker 1: a with a caller before. Did you say you're the 549 00:29:30,760 --> 00:29:33,720 Speaker 1: lone ranger or the lone arranger, like the guy on 550 00:29:33,800 --> 00:29:35,440 Speaker 1: the corner of the street where I can go, you know, 551 00:29:35,720 --> 00:29:39,320 Speaker 1: get a in the South Bronx, I'm a lone arranger, okay, 552 00:29:39,600 --> 00:29:42,840 Speaker 1: but here I'm the lone ranger. Okay. I just want 553 00:29:42,840 --> 00:29:44,600 Speaker 1: to make sure. But when I go to the South Bronx, 554 00:29:44,680 --> 00:29:47,280 Speaker 1: I take Viny with the bat, all right, because you 555 00:29:47,400 --> 00:29:50,400 Speaker 1: know it's South Bronx is a tough neighborhood. Um, but 556 00:29:50,520 --> 00:29:52,480 Speaker 1: that's a whole another story. Tough. It's you know, I'll 557 00:29:52,480 --> 00:29:55,320 Speaker 1: tell you a quick story about fixing cars. You hear 558 00:29:55,400 --> 00:29:59,240 Speaker 1: things really really crazy. But more than a few of 559 00:29:59,280 --> 00:30:01,680 Speaker 1: the dealer guys know in that area of the of 560 00:30:01,760 --> 00:30:03,560 Speaker 1: the country, in the state. They tell me stories about 561 00:30:03,600 --> 00:30:07,000 Speaker 1: the guys fixing cars on the street, full time auto 562 00:30:07,080 --> 00:30:10,760 Speaker 1: repair shops on the street of the inner city, day 563 00:30:10,800 --> 00:30:13,600 Speaker 1: and night, all kinds of weather, and the way they 564 00:30:13,680 --> 00:30:17,240 Speaker 1: take the cars apart is absolutely frightening. It's um, you know, 565 00:30:17,280 --> 00:30:19,400 Speaker 1: I hear some really amazing things. And you know what 566 00:30:19,520 --> 00:30:22,120 Speaker 1: the sad part is, there's some real talent out there. 567 00:30:22,720 --> 00:30:24,560 Speaker 1: Short of they just need a building to put their 568 00:30:24,600 --> 00:30:26,960 Speaker 1: business in. And it's a shame that it's so difficult 569 00:30:27,000 --> 00:30:29,320 Speaker 1: to afford it, so God bless them. Let's get over 570 00:30:29,360 --> 00:30:31,280 Speaker 1: and talk to us at Laslow and Brick, New Jersey 571 00:30:31,360 --> 00:30:33,680 Speaker 1: ninety Chevy S ten Laslow, Welcome to the car doctor. 572 00:30:33,720 --> 00:30:37,400 Speaker 1: How can I help? Hi? Has it going? And what 573 00:30:37,560 --> 00:30:40,440 Speaker 1: would you recommend? Would be the best synthetic oil? From 574 00:30:40,440 --> 00:30:44,000 Speaker 1: my manual transmission five speed and for my differential? I 575 00:30:44,200 --> 00:30:48,600 Speaker 1: think picking out drive line fluids Laslow is just as 576 00:30:49,080 --> 00:30:51,480 Speaker 1: I won't say difficult, but as important as picking out 577 00:30:51,520 --> 00:30:54,360 Speaker 1: engine oil, all right. And I've always said that when 578 00:30:54,400 --> 00:30:56,480 Speaker 1: you're picking, if you're looking for the best, and you're 579 00:30:56,600 --> 00:30:59,960 Speaker 1: you're considering, you know what's good out there. I always 580 00:31:00,040 --> 00:31:02,080 Speaker 1: look at the engineering behind the company, and I always 581 00:31:02,080 --> 00:31:04,320 Speaker 1: look at the company itself, and I like pens oil. 582 00:31:04,880 --> 00:31:07,000 Speaker 1: It's it's what we use in the hot rod, it's 583 00:31:07,040 --> 00:31:10,120 Speaker 1: what we use and performance applications around the shop that 584 00:31:10,240 --> 00:31:12,760 Speaker 1: they do. They beyond engine oil. They do make a 585 00:31:12,840 --> 00:31:16,120 Speaker 1: full line of drive line fluid. They make a manual transfluid, 586 00:31:16,400 --> 00:31:18,840 Speaker 1: they make a differential fluid. And I'm not going to 587 00:31:18,920 --> 00:31:21,400 Speaker 1: say that they have it for every application, but they 588 00:31:21,440 --> 00:31:23,880 Speaker 1: are my first stop. They are my go to guys 589 00:31:24,200 --> 00:31:26,200 Speaker 1: on where I will look to see do they have 590 00:31:26,400 --> 00:31:30,520 Speaker 1: it um the manual transmission different from the differential. Yes, 591 00:31:30,840 --> 00:31:35,400 Speaker 1: in some cases. Yes. In some cases, some manufacturers like 592 00:31:35,600 --> 00:31:40,360 Speaker 1: GM for example, will specifically call for a manual transmission fluid. 593 00:31:40,840 --> 00:31:43,800 Speaker 1: All right now, I don't know Again, I don't know 594 00:31:44,080 --> 00:31:48,080 Speaker 1: that Penn's Oil makes a specific manual transfluid for that vehicle. 595 00:31:48,200 --> 00:31:50,760 Speaker 1: If they do, I wouldn't have any problem using it 596 00:31:50,880 --> 00:31:53,440 Speaker 1: because I can trust their engineering. I can trust their 597 00:31:53,520 --> 00:31:56,680 Speaker 1: research because that's that's really what we're buying here where 598 00:31:56,720 --> 00:31:58,480 Speaker 1: you know, everybody thinks that we're buying oil. It comes 599 00:31:58,520 --> 00:32:00,640 Speaker 1: out of a you know, the oil from this company 600 00:32:00,720 --> 00:32:02,120 Speaker 1: comes out of this hole in the ground. The oil 601 00:32:02,160 --> 00:32:04,240 Speaker 1: from that company comes out of this hole in the ground. 602 00:32:04,280 --> 00:32:05,840 Speaker 1: You know what, They all come out of the same hole. 603 00:32:06,200 --> 00:32:08,760 Speaker 1: It's the editors and the research and the engineering behind it. 604 00:32:08,840 --> 00:32:11,000 Speaker 1: And that's what I think makes Pens oil. So so 605 00:32:11,200 --> 00:32:15,880 Speaker 1: you can recommend pens oil, yes, first first stop. That's 606 00:32:15,920 --> 00:32:19,080 Speaker 1: where i'd be looking absolutely and synthetic. Would I have 607 00:32:19,160 --> 00:32:22,480 Speaker 1: to change it? Like how many miles roughly? Well in 608 00:32:22,560 --> 00:32:27,320 Speaker 1: a differential yeah, in in a differential application. That are 609 00:32:27,400 --> 00:32:30,400 Speaker 1: you towing with it? Is it just every day uses it? Highway? 610 00:32:31,480 --> 00:32:33,480 Speaker 1: Just every day use highway city. Listen, I still like 611 00:32:33,560 --> 00:32:36,280 Speaker 1: to change gear oil every thirty to forty miles on 612 00:32:36,360 --> 00:32:39,760 Speaker 1: a conventional vehicle like that. All right, I'm not looking 613 00:32:39,840 --> 00:32:45,960 Speaker 1: for transmission. Transmission um probably the same thing. Okay, that's cool, 614 00:32:46,120 --> 00:32:48,080 Speaker 1: all right, all right. I appreciate your help now getting 615 00:32:48,080 --> 00:32:50,040 Speaker 1: contact with them.

All right? Because you know, 625 00:33:25,880 --> 00:33:29,080 Speaker 1: you think about think about all the exhaust systems you 626 00:33:29,160 --> 00:33:31,280 Speaker 1: see on the side of the highways, and the tires 627 00:33:31,320 --> 00:33:33,640 Speaker 1: that are flat, and the discarded car parts and the 628 00:33:33,760 --> 00:33:35,760 Speaker 1: parts that have fallen off of cars and trucks that 629 00:33:35,760 --> 00:33:39,320 Speaker 1: they're traveling around the country. So what's gonna happen with 630 00:33:39,400 --> 00:33:42,200 Speaker 1: flying cars? Are they're gonna be debris zones like you know, 631 00:33:42,280 --> 00:33:46,080 Speaker 1: they have to fly certain paths too, and that's gonna 632 00:33:46,160 --> 00:33:50,040 Speaker 1: become the you know, where the scrap goes. It's you know, 633 00:33:50,120 --> 00:33:52,640 Speaker 1: what are we gonna have you know, um, instead of 634 00:33:52,760 --> 00:33:56,320 Speaker 1: keeping the highway clean, keeping the scrap zone clean, company 635 00:33:56,400 --> 00:33:59,240 Speaker 1: sponsors type of things. Uh, you know, we're gonna have 636 00:33:59,240 --> 00:34:01,400 Speaker 1: to start wearing hard hats. We're gonna have to design 637 00:34:01,400 --> 00:34:03,520 Speaker 1: our you know, we'renna to have fashionable hard hats. Car 638 00:34:03,600 --> 00:34:06,120 Speaker 1: doctor hard hats. I'll tell you what, when they have 639 00:34:06,240 --> 00:34:08,120 Speaker 1: the first flying car, we're gonna have to start giving 640 00:34:08,160 --> 00:34:10,440 Speaker 1: away hard hats. That'll be like a price for getting 641 00:34:10,440 --> 00:34:12,080 Speaker 1: in and we'll talk about it. You know. I'll have 642 00:34:12,160 --> 00:34:14,719 Speaker 1: to design something that's durable, made well made here in 643 00:34:14,719 --> 00:34:20,160 Speaker 1: the USA. Okay, that lasts. That's simple, no computer involvement, 644 00:34:20,640 --> 00:34:25,640 Speaker 1: nuts and bolts. Because I still don't see it. Um, 645 00:34:26,200 --> 00:34:29,680 Speaker 1: I I still think we are. I don't know that 646 00:34:29,800 --> 00:34:33,200 Speaker 1: our technology is that far away, but I think mentally 647 00:34:33,600 --> 00:34:36,320 Speaker 1: as a people were pretty far away from flying cars 648 00:34:36,440 --> 00:34:39,600 Speaker 1: because uh, I just see the dark side being able 649 00:34:39,640 --> 00:34:41,080 Speaker 1: to take over and do too much with them in 650 00:34:41,120 --> 00:34:43,799 Speaker 1: the wrong way and what they can do.
