1 00:00:05,480 --> 00:00:09,760 Speaker 1: She's real. Find my form nine, she's real, Find my 2 00:00:10,000 --> 00:00:17,360 Speaker 1: F nine my phone. Heyy, welcome back Ron leading the 3 00:00:17,360 --> 00:00:20,480 Speaker 1: car doctor. Let's finish up with Sandy Lacrosse, Wisconsin. Sandy, 4 00:00:20,520 --> 00:00:21,000 Speaker 1: are you there? 5 00:00:21,760 --> 00:00:22,040 Speaker 2: Yes? 6 00:00:22,640 --> 00:00:25,520 Speaker 1: So, what you're saying is the starter had an occasion 7 00:00:25,560 --> 00:00:28,760 Speaker 1: where you went to crank the car the starter drive 8 00:00:28,880 --> 00:00:31,600 Speaker 1: throughout it didn't engage. It made a high pitched noise. 9 00:00:31,640 --> 00:00:33,520 Speaker 1: And now the question is do you change the starter 10 00:00:33,600 --> 00:00:37,080 Speaker 1: for five six hundred dollars or do you ride it 11 00:00:37,120 --> 00:00:37,559 Speaker 1: as is? 12 00:00:38,440 --> 00:00:41,440 Speaker 2: I took it to two different O'Reillys at different times, 13 00:00:41,479 --> 00:00:44,479 Speaker 2: and they both checked the starter, alternator and battery and 14 00:00:44,479 --> 00:00:47,440 Speaker 2: said they were fine, and then I shouldn't have a problem. 15 00:00:47,720 --> 00:00:50,000 Speaker 2: And someone else said, the starter drive is with the 16 00:00:50,040 --> 00:00:52,520 Speaker 2: starter and the whole thing has to be changed if 17 00:00:52,520 --> 00:00:54,440 Speaker 2: the starter drive gives me any trouble. 18 00:00:55,760 --> 00:00:59,760 Speaker 1: Well, yeah, now understand what O'Reilly's is doing is they 19 00:00:59,800 --> 00:01:04,360 Speaker 1: are electrically testing the starter. It's not a mechanical check, 20 00:01:04,880 --> 00:01:07,200 Speaker 1: all right, unless they physically pulled the starter out and 21 00:01:07,240 --> 00:01:09,559 Speaker 1: did an examination, which I don't believe the parts stores 22 00:01:09,560 --> 00:01:12,559 Speaker 1: are doing. They are testing it electrically to make sure 23 00:01:12,600 --> 00:01:14,680 Speaker 1: to see what current joy is, to make sure that 24 00:01:14,959 --> 00:01:18,120 Speaker 1: the starter has proper voltage as provided by the battery, 25 00:01:18,160 --> 00:01:21,440 Speaker 1: the charging system and so forth. So yeah, that's great, 26 00:01:21,600 --> 00:01:24,360 Speaker 1: but that doesn't you know, what we're talking about here 27 00:01:24,480 --> 00:01:28,240 Speaker 1: is something didn't happen mechanically. Either the starter drive didn't 28 00:01:28,280 --> 00:01:32,240 Speaker 1: come out and engage the flywheel, or the flywheel came 29 00:01:32,280 --> 00:01:36,160 Speaker 1: out and the I'm sorry, the starter came out, the 30 00:01:36,280 --> 00:01:39,200 Speaker 1: drive came out to engage the flywheel, and the flywheel 31 00:01:39,240 --> 00:01:42,160 Speaker 1: tooth wasn't there. This is the same type of noise, 32 00:01:42,959 --> 00:01:45,880 Speaker 1: if I believe we're talking about the same thing. If 33 00:01:45,920 --> 00:01:48,360 Speaker 1: you tried to start the car and the engine was 34 00:01:48,400 --> 00:01:52,280 Speaker 1: already running that high pitched noise, yes, right. 35 00:01:52,200 --> 00:01:54,600 Speaker 2: Okay, like that, that's exactly a little different. 36 00:01:54,720 --> 00:01:54,960 Speaker 1: Right. 37 00:01:56,680 --> 00:01:56,880 Speaker 3: Yeah. 38 00:01:56,880 --> 00:01:58,520 Speaker 2: I was going to ask, did it hurt to start 39 00:01:58,520 --> 00:02:00,000 Speaker 2: at that many times? Twelve times? 40 00:02:00,640 --> 00:02:00,840 Speaker 3: No? 41 00:02:00,880 --> 00:02:03,720 Speaker 1: Not as long as it engaged twelve times in a row, 42 00:02:04,120 --> 00:02:05,200 Speaker 1: you know, No, it didn't. 43 00:02:05,240 --> 00:02:07,800 Speaker 2: It didn't. It was a tenth time it engaged. 44 00:02:07,960 --> 00:02:10,160 Speaker 1: Okay, So it just sat there and kept going, wingoing 45 00:02:10,240 --> 00:02:13,360 Speaker 1: the wing, the wing, the wing, and finally went My 46 00:02:13,480 --> 00:02:14,120 Speaker 1: son told me. 47 00:02:14,080 --> 00:02:16,200 Speaker 2: To do it that many times. I haven't had a 48 00:02:16,200 --> 00:02:18,320 Speaker 2: problem since and I was running. It's the cold or 49 00:02:18,360 --> 00:02:20,240 Speaker 2: having it sit along to make a difference. 50 00:02:20,360 --> 00:02:24,040 Speaker 1: The answer to this question is this, I think someone's 51 00:02:24,080 --> 00:02:26,760 Speaker 1: gonna have to I don't think I know to answer this. 52 00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:30,200 Speaker 1: Somebody's gonna have to pull the starter and crank the 53 00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:32,840 Speaker 1: mark the flywheel with a piece of tire crayon or 54 00:02:33,240 --> 00:02:36,760 Speaker 1: nail polish or whatever, and you know, here's the start point, 55 00:02:36,840 --> 00:02:38,920 Speaker 1: and hand cranked the engine a little bit at a 56 00:02:38,960 --> 00:02:42,920 Speaker 1: time while watching the flywheel teeth as they crank it over. 57 00:02:43,440 --> 00:02:45,800 Speaker 1: And I've got a feeling you're gonna find there's a 58 00:02:45,840 --> 00:02:48,959 Speaker 1: bad spot on the flywheel, either either a couple of 59 00:02:49,040 --> 00:02:52,680 Speaker 1: chipped teeth or some sort of damage. Either the starter 60 00:02:52,840 --> 00:02:55,280 Speaker 1: drive is out of alignment and that's a problem, or 61 00:02:57,120 --> 00:02:59,720 Speaker 1: maybe somebody did try to start it without realizing it 62 00:02:59,800 --> 00:03:02,960 Speaker 1: and the tooth somewhere along the way. But my point is, 63 00:03:03,160 --> 00:03:07,040 Speaker 1: if you mechanically crank the engine over by hand, just 64 00:03:07,080 --> 00:03:10,280 Speaker 1: sit there and spin it by some means, and find 65 00:03:10,280 --> 00:03:13,400 Speaker 1: that all the teeth on the flywheel are indeed intact, 66 00:03:14,120 --> 00:03:17,560 Speaker 1: then you know that mechanically the flywheel is okay. The 67 00:03:17,600 --> 00:03:20,239 Speaker 1: only place the problem can be is in the starter. 68 00:03:21,120 --> 00:03:23,440 Speaker 1: Unless the starter is loose, the bolts are falling out 69 00:03:23,480 --> 00:03:27,200 Speaker 1: something along those lines. But if the flywheel mechanically checks 70 00:03:27,200 --> 00:03:31,160 Speaker 1: out as solid, no teeth damage, no teeth missing, then 71 00:03:31,160 --> 00:03:33,080 Speaker 1: the fault is in the starter, and then I would 72 00:03:33,080 --> 00:03:35,880 Speaker 1: suggest that you replace the starter, or at least pull 73 00:03:35,920 --> 00:03:38,760 Speaker 1: it out mechanically and well when it's out to inspect 74 00:03:38,800 --> 00:03:40,800 Speaker 1: the flywheel, take a closer look at it and see 75 00:03:40,840 --> 00:03:43,839 Speaker 1: if there's any mechanical damage on the starter. And that's 76 00:03:43,880 --> 00:03:46,120 Speaker 1: how you'll know, all right, because this. 77 00:03:46,240 --> 00:03:49,200 Speaker 2: Only has it has the car has between thirty seven 78 00:03:49,240 --> 00:03:52,280 Speaker 2: and thirty six and thirty seven thousand miles. It would 79 00:03:52,320 --> 00:03:53,880 Speaker 2: this possibly happen that soon. 80 00:03:54,240 --> 00:03:56,280 Speaker 1: We had this two thousand and twenty four tourists in 81 00:03:56,320 --> 00:03:59,720 Speaker 1: the shop this week. I was putting a cam synchronizer 82 00:03:59,800 --> 00:04:01,600 Speaker 1: in it. And as I took the new Ford cam 83 00:04:01,720 --> 00:04:05,040 Speaker 1: synchronizer out of the box, new, never ever worked, and 84 00:04:05,080 --> 00:04:07,160 Speaker 1: I was ready to bolt it in, I noticed the 85 00:04:07,200 --> 00:04:09,280 Speaker 1: two holes where I'm supposed to put the cam sensor 86 00:04:09,920 --> 00:04:13,800 Speaker 1: warn drilled, Warren drilled, weren't threaded, brand new part right 87 00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:16,640 Speaker 1: from the manufacturer. So you know, should the starter on 88 00:04:16,680 --> 00:04:18,760 Speaker 1: the seven year old car with forty thousand miles on it? 89 00:04:18,760 --> 00:04:22,039 Speaker 1: Could it be bad? New never ever worked? Seven years 90 00:04:22,040 --> 00:04:24,960 Speaker 1: old is seven years old. It's very possible, So it 91 00:04:25,040 --> 00:04:28,080 Speaker 1: doesn't matter whatever whatever caused it, You've still got a 92 00:04:28,120 --> 00:04:30,520 Speaker 1: broken car. So forget how old or new it is, 93 00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:32,719 Speaker 1: forget how many miles it has on it. That's not 94 00:04:32,800 --> 00:04:36,200 Speaker 1: a diagnosis. A diagnosis begins by attacking the problem and 95 00:04:36,240 --> 00:04:39,440 Speaker 1: taking it apart and looking at something. So you know, 96 00:04:39,560 --> 00:04:42,520 Speaker 1: I would suggest look at the flywheel. Is it missing 97 00:04:42,520 --> 00:04:45,360 Speaker 1: any teeth? If the teeth on the flywheel are good, 98 00:04:45,760 --> 00:04:48,240 Speaker 1: then I'm going to tell you consider taking a look 99 00:04:48,240 --> 00:04:51,080 Speaker 1: at the starter, and chances are that's where the problem 100 00:04:51,160 --> 00:04:53,120 Speaker 1: is because that's the only thing that can cause it. 101 00:04:53,279 --> 00:04:56,080 Speaker 1: If it happened because it's sat in cold weather. I'm 102 00:04:56,080 --> 00:04:57,360 Speaker 1: sure we're going to get enough of it in the 103 00:04:57,400 --> 00:04:59,039 Speaker 1: next two or three months that you're going to find 104 00:04:59,040 --> 00:05:02,400 Speaker 1: that problem occurs again. And the danger is not doing 105 00:05:02,440 --> 00:05:05,400 Speaker 1: anything can create an issue with that starter where it 106 00:05:05,440 --> 00:05:08,520 Speaker 1: finally will damage the flywheel and then the transmission has 107 00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:10,039 Speaker 1: to come out in order for the flywheel to be 108 00:05:10,120 --> 00:05:13,480 Speaker 1: repaired or replaced, and that's a much more expensive repair. 109 00:05:13,560 --> 00:05:15,880 Speaker 1: So some due diligence, take a look at the flywheel. 110 00:05:15,920 --> 00:05:17,520 Speaker 1: We can kind of go from there. Call me back 111 00:05:17,560 --> 00:05:19,120 Speaker 1: if you have any other questions, sant Or you can 112 00:05:19,160 --> 00:05:22,839 Speaker 1: drop me an email Ron at Cardoctorshow dot com. Okay, great, 113 00:05:22,960 --> 00:05:23,279 Speaker 1: thank you. 114 00:05:23,640 --> 00:05:23,800 Speaker 3: Hey. 115 00:05:23,839 --> 00:05:26,800 Speaker 1: Our next guest is no stranger to the Card Doctor. 116 00:05:26,880 --> 00:05:29,080 Speaker 1: Joe Morrison's been around and he's been with us before, 117 00:05:29,400 --> 00:05:31,280 Speaker 1: and it's always kind of fun to talk to Joe. 118 00:05:31,400 --> 00:05:35,560 Speaker 1: Joe races a vintage Fiat. He does a bunch of 119 00:05:35,560 --> 00:05:40,760 Speaker 1: funny car things. He's now I guess graduating into an 120 00:05:40,760 --> 00:05:44,440 Speaker 1: injected nitro dragster for Jerry Darien. And he's also a 121 00:05:44,480 --> 00:05:46,919 Speaker 1: big supporter of the Right to Breed dot org and 122 00:05:47,040 --> 00:05:49,120 Speaker 1: a COPD and we're always glad to have Joe here 123 00:05:49,120 --> 00:05:51,040 Speaker 1: with us on the Card Doctor Joe. Welcome back, sir, 124 00:05:52,200 --> 00:05:52,760 Speaker 1: great Ron. 125 00:05:52,920 --> 00:05:55,919 Speaker 3: It's great to be back.

You know, 132 00:06:06,760 --> 00:06:08,440 Speaker 1: we're coming to the end of the racing season and 133 00:06:08,480 --> 00:06:10,320 Speaker 1: we always like to look back and say where's Joe 134 00:06:10,360 --> 00:06:13,200 Speaker 1: Benn And you know, I see pictures of the yellow 135 00:06:13,279 --> 00:06:15,480 Speaker 1: Fiat on my Facebook page all the time are up 136 00:06:15,480 --> 00:06:17,080 Speaker 1: on Facebook, and we should probably put a couple of 137 00:06:17,120 --> 00:06:19,760 Speaker 1: pictures up on the Facebook page for the fans. But 138 00:06:19,839 --> 00:06:21,719 Speaker 1: talk a little bit about the car. Where'd you go 139 00:06:21,839 --> 00:06:24,200 Speaker 1: this year and had the car run and what sort 140 00:06:24,200 --> 00:06:26,400 Speaker 1: of times and and speeds did it attain. 141 00:06:27,640 --> 00:06:30,279 Speaker 3: We had a lot of fun this year. We did 142 00:06:30,279 --> 00:06:33,679 Speaker 3: a bunch of match races with some nostalgia funny cars 143 00:06:33,760 --> 00:06:37,200 Speaker 3: and and in the Fiat I was running seven twenties 144 00:06:37,279 --> 00:06:39,440 Speaker 3: and quarter mile at a one hundred and eighty five 145 00:06:39,480 --> 00:06:43,600 Speaker 3: miles an hour. That was a that was fun. And 146 00:06:43,640 --> 00:06:46,400 Speaker 3: as you know, we used the car to to promote 147 00:06:46,839 --> 00:06:50,440 Speaker 3: respiratory health and we do COPD screenings at the track 148 00:06:50,480 --> 00:06:53,880 Speaker 3: with our friends from the New Jersey Society for Respiratory 149 00:06:53,920 --> 00:06:57,760 Speaker 3: Care and it's been it's been a great year with that. 150 00:06:57,960 --> 00:07:00,800 Speaker 3: And and the fun thing too was, as you said earlier, 151 00:07:01,160 --> 00:07:04,360 Speaker 3: I went and licensed with Jerry Darian, who any drag 152 00:07:04,440 --> 00:07:07,640 Speaker 3: racing fans would be familiar that that's who Ashley Force 153 00:07:07,760 --> 00:07:10,800 Speaker 3: and Britney Force and Courtney Force drove for and a 154 00:07:10,840 --> 00:07:13,560 Speaker 3: bunch of other pro drivers and in that car, the 155 00:07:13,600 --> 00:07:17,680 Speaker 3: injected nitro car, I ran a five point thirty seven 156 00:07:17,760 --> 00:07:20,600 Speaker 3: second pass at two hundred and seventy miles an hour 157 00:07:20,680 --> 00:07:23,480 Speaker 3: in the in the quarter mile out of Bakersfield, California. 158 00:07:23,640 --> 00:07:23,800 Speaker 1: Yeah. 159 00:07:23,800 --> 00:07:25,640 Speaker 3: Wow, that was intense. 160 00:07:25,680 --> 00:07:28,720 Speaker 1: That's got to be intense. I mean, you know, sitting 161 00:07:28,720 --> 00:07:31,040 Speaker 1: here in my chair, you know, a seven second quarter 162 00:07:31,080 --> 00:07:34,200 Speaker 1: mile in the Fiat sounds fast, and I'm sure to 163 00:07:34,240 --> 00:07:37,320 Speaker 1: you it's it's probably getting to be a commonplace thing, Joe, 164 00:07:37,320 --> 00:07:39,440 Speaker 1: you do it so much. But to go from what's 165 00:07:39,440 --> 00:07:41,640 Speaker 1: it like to go that extra two seconds that that's 166 00:07:41,680 --> 00:07:44,080 Speaker 1: a huge gap, right, I mean that's a big difference. 167 00:07:44,720 --> 00:07:48,480 Speaker 3: Well, it's more than twice the car.

Joe, you're still there, sir, Yes, sir, you know, Joe, 206 00:10:06,120 --> 00:10:09,839 Speaker 1: You're just I live vicariously through you as I as 207 00:10:09,840 --> 00:10:13,080 Speaker 1: I watch your you know, the MPG Racing website and 208 00:10:13,120 --> 00:10:15,960 Speaker 1: your exploits on Facebook. So you went from driving the 209 00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:19,199 Speaker 1: Fiat doing one hundred and eighty miles an hour and 210 00:10:19,240 --> 00:10:22,320 Speaker 1: seven second quarters to drive in a dragster for Jerry 211 00:10:22,400 --> 00:10:25,120 Speaker 1: Darien doing five and a half seconds or five whatever. 212 00:10:25,160 --> 00:10:28,000 Speaker 1: It was two hundred something miles an hour. And that's 213 00:10:28,000 --> 00:10:30,040 Speaker 1: not enough for you. Now you're going to drive a 214 00:10:30,120 --> 00:10:32,880 Speaker 1: jet car and and go how fast? 215 00:10:33,960 --> 00:10:37,280 Speaker 3: Yes, the fine thing is I went faster in the 216 00:10:37,280 --> 00:10:39,800 Speaker 3: injected nitro car than I did in the jet because 217 00:10:40,320 --> 00:10:42,400 Speaker 3: we only made a few passes in the jet car 218 00:10:42,520 --> 00:10:45,360 Speaker 3: that day. So who knows if I'll get to finish 219 00:10:45,480 --> 00:10:48,439 Speaker 3: licensing in that car. I hope I do. But that's 220 00:10:48,480 --> 00:10:50,440 Speaker 3: a that's a three hundred mile an hour car when 221 00:10:50,440 --> 00:10:52,440 Speaker 3: it when it runs a full quarter mile. I was 222 00:10:53,120 --> 00:10:56,199 Speaker 3: making some part track passes and and and that was 223 00:10:56,240 --> 00:10:57,760 Speaker 3: an adventure for sure. 224 00:10:58,640 --> 00:11:01,640 Speaker 1: You know, it's it's got to really be a feeling 225 00:11:01,720 --> 00:11:03,640 Speaker 1: when you sit in that seat and they fire it 226 00:11:03,720 --> 00:11:08,000 Speaker 1: up and the light changes, the flag drops, as it were, 227 00:11:08,520 --> 00:11:12,880 Speaker 1: and you go, what's that first? What's that first five seconds? 228 00:11:13,240 --> 00:11:19,240 Speaker 3: Like? Man, it's uh, well, the acceleration in the in 229 00:11:19,320 --> 00:11:24,640 Speaker 3: the injected nitro car doing zero to one hundred miles 230 00:11:24,679 --> 00:11:28,319 Speaker 3: an hour and in just about a second a little. 231 00:11:28,080 --> 00:11:31,959 Speaker 1: Over it's uh, it's hard to breathe. 232 00:11:32,679 --> 00:11:35,200 Speaker 3: It's hard to it's hard to explain. I mean, it's 233 00:11:35,280 --> 00:11:38,839 Speaker 3: so the the acceleration is so intense. They actually put 234 00:11:38,880 --> 00:11:41,480 Speaker 3: a little turnbuckle on on your helmet and a strap, 235 00:11:41,520 --> 00:11:44,320 Speaker 3: a chin strap that attaches to the to the to 236 00:11:44,360 --> 00:11:47,880 Speaker 3: the sea harness, the seatfell harness to keep your head 237 00:11:47,920 --> 00:11:50,280 Speaker 3: from banging back into the roll cage. I mean, it's 238 00:11:50,360 --> 00:11:55,040 Speaker 3: just so intense. The only way I could describe it 239 00:11:55,160 --> 00:11:57,040 Speaker 3: this is with the Fiat. Even the first time I 240 00:11:57,120 --> 00:11:59,920 Speaker 3: launched the Fiat and that car does the first six 241 00:12:00,200 --> 00:12:03,840 Speaker 3: feet of the track in about one second flat. The 242 00:12:03,880 --> 00:12:07,280 Speaker 3: only thing I could explain is is Uh, it's kind 243 00:12:07,280 --> 00:12:08,480 Speaker 3: of like, you know, if you're in the middle of 244 00:12:08,520 --> 00:12:10,240 Speaker 3: doing something and you blink and you feel like you 245 00:12:10,360 --> 00:12:12,640 Speaker 3: missed something. It was like, when I left the starting line, 246 00:12:13,160 --> 00:12:16,000 Speaker 3: something in my head said, hey, wake up, dude, you're 247 00:12:16,040 --> 00:12:19,720 Speaker 3: already two hundred feet down the track. Like I couldn't 248 00:12:19,760 --> 00:12:23,080 Speaker 3: believe it was a blur I had already done. Yeah, 249 00:12:23,160 --> 00:12:25,040 Speaker 3: it was like a time warp. For lack of a 250 00:12:25,040 --> 00:12:25,640 Speaker 3: better way of. 251 00:12:25,600 --> 00:12:27,920 Speaker 1: Explaining, right, it was like it was like a blur 252 00:12:28,080 --> 00:12:30,520 Speaker 1: became a blink. Yeah, no, I get it. Hey, Joe, 253 00:12:30,559 --> 00:12:33,000 Speaker 1: real quick before we we wrap it up, talk a 254 00:12:33,000 --> 00:12:35,000 Speaker 1: little bit out speaking about hard to breathe.

Hey, Ron, I was 316 00:15:53,520 --> 00:15:55,080 Speaker 1: wondering if you could offer me some advice on how 317 00:15:55,160 --> 00:15:57,720 Speaker 1: much oil to add to my twenty ten fusion two 318 00:15:57,840 --> 00:16:01,000 Speaker 1: oh turbo, which suffered a total loss of all refrigerant 319 00:16:01,200 --> 00:16:03,520 Speaker 1: due to an accident which punctured the condensers. Should I 320 00:16:03,520 --> 00:16:06,280 Speaker 1: add the full four point nine ounces SPEX call four. 321 00:16:06,280 --> 00:16:08,400 Speaker 1: Should I drain the compressor? Should I apply a vacuum 322 00:16:08,440 --> 00:16:10,920 Speaker 1: before after I add oil? I have attached workshop specs. 323 00:16:10,920 --> 00:16:12,800 Speaker 1: This is an email and helping be appreciated. This comes 324 00:16:12,800 --> 00:16:15,960 Speaker 1: to us from Joshua. Joshua, listen, the standard rule is 325 00:16:16,240 --> 00:16:21,200 Speaker 1: it's two ounces per component, all right, So you're replacing 326 00:16:21,240 --> 00:16:24,320 Speaker 1: the condenser, you want to add two ounces to it? Yeah, 327 00:16:24,600 --> 00:16:26,280 Speaker 1: that makes sense to me. You want to add one 328 00:16:26,320 --> 00:16:28,960 Speaker 1: ounce to it. I'm fine with that too, because I 329 00:16:29,040 --> 00:16:32,080 Speaker 1: often think that we're over oiling AC systems, and that's 330 00:16:32,080 --> 00:16:35,240 Speaker 1: a whole separate conversation for another day. But what's key, 331 00:16:35,600 --> 00:16:39,520 Speaker 1: what's most important is using a good quality part. Don't 332 00:16:39,600 --> 00:16:42,320 Speaker 1: just buy a cheap piece of junk.
