2
00:00:02,520 --> 00:00:04,760
Speaker 1: we ran into the green room. We were watching an

Speaker 1: oh wait I am. That's right. We're perfectly ordinary people.

6
00:00:13,560 --> 00:00:18,480
Speaker 1: The car Doctor, uh corolla, I didn't buy the revoked

7
00:00:18,480 --> 00:00:20,639
Speaker 1: stater of what I bought the car. I'd like to

8
00:00:20,640 --> 00:00:22,279
Speaker 1: add it on. Do I go with the dealership? I

9
00:00:22,320 --> 00:00:24,799
Speaker 1: want to go after market? Well, I like the dealership

30
00:01:22,240 --> 00:01:24,199
Speaker 1: got a big show, a lot of phone calls lined

31
00:01:24,240 --> 00:01:26,200
Speaker 1: up in Q and I'm not gonna waste any time.

32
00:01:26,280 --> 00:01:28,480
Speaker 1: Let's kick the garage doors right open, right away, and

33
00:01:28,520 --> 00:01:31,560
Speaker 1: let's go and talk to Salix Chevy Camaro and some

34
00:01:31,680 --> 00:01:34,040
Speaker 1: performance questions. Sal Welcome to the Car Doctor, Sir. How

35
00:01:34,080 --> 00:01:37,000
Speaker 1: can I help? Hey? Ron, how are you good? What's

36
00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:41,600
Speaker 1: going on? What you got? I got issues? Uh? I

37
00:01:41,680 --> 00:01:46,240
Speaker 1: got a lot o Um. Originally we had set up

38
00:01:46,240 --> 00:01:49,560
Speaker 1: for the track so um we had you know, a

39
00:01:49,600 --> 00:01:54,120
Speaker 1: big camp, big rear rent and uh pause on it.

40
00:01:55,120 --> 00:01:59,240
Speaker 1: Since then, I've really taking it down quite a notch

41
00:01:59,280 --> 00:02:01,640
Speaker 1: to put you know, a single plane high rise on

42
00:02:01,680 --> 00:02:05,960
Speaker 1: it within a fifty and UM I left the cam unfortunately,

43
00:02:05,960 --> 00:02:08,280
Speaker 1: which I think might be causing some of my problems.

44
00:02:08,639 --> 00:02:10,919
Speaker 1: At any rate, The real question is I can't get

45
00:02:10,960 --> 00:02:13,800
Speaker 1: the camp specs. I don't know what what's the time

46
00:02:13,840 --> 00:02:17,280
Speaker 1: of that? I don't know, you know, even way to

47
00:02:17,280 --> 00:02:20,880
Speaker 1: go with that. Um, I can't get the times, so

48
00:02:20,960 --> 00:02:23,360
Speaker 1: you probably can't. You probably can't get it to idol, right,

49
00:02:23,400 --> 00:02:27,000
Speaker 1: And it's probably sloppy coming off the line. Well not

50
00:02:27,040 --> 00:02:29,720
Speaker 1: only sloppy coming off the line, but it's it's uh,

51
00:02:29,760 --> 00:02:34,640
Speaker 1: it's stumbling. Yeah, it kind of falls on its face. Yeah,

52
00:02:34,720 --> 00:02:38,760
Speaker 1: it's something on acceleration. And um, when it gets hot,

53
00:02:39,520 --> 00:02:42,000
Speaker 1: it's impossible to start. It just will outside. I got

54
00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:44,400
Speaker 1: ready for the pools out, so I'm sure I thought

55
00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:47,240
Speaker 1: of it as timing. But um, I'm worried if I

56
00:02:47,240 --> 00:02:50,760
Speaker 1: have a vacuum problem. Well let me let me explain

57
00:02:50,760 --> 00:02:52,639
Speaker 1: it to you like this. I remember, you know, I

58
00:02:52,680 --> 00:02:54,960
Speaker 1: remember as a kid, we always wanted bigger and better.

59
00:02:55,440 --> 00:02:57,560
Speaker 1: You know, we always thought bigger cams were better and

60
00:02:57,560 --> 00:02:59,920
Speaker 1: bigger heads were better. And you know, the bigger it was,

61
00:03:00,040 --> 00:03:01,600
Speaker 1: the faster it would go and the more power it

62
00:03:01,600 --> 00:03:04,840
Speaker 1: would make. And the way Billy explained it to me,

63
00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:07,840
Speaker 1: my boss at the time, uh, he said to me,

64
00:03:07,840 --> 00:03:10,280
Speaker 1: he said, go stand in front of a doorway with

65
00:03:10,360 --> 00:03:12,440
Speaker 1: a breeze blowing and I and I did, and he said,

66
00:03:12,480 --> 00:03:14,520
Speaker 1: now opened the door, and I did, and it kind of,

67
00:03:14,560 --> 00:03:17,560
Speaker 1: you know, you get a breeze in the face, it

68
00:03:17,360 --> 00:03:19,959
Speaker 1: it's sort of it hits you in the kisser, right.

69
00:03:20,800 --> 00:03:23,400
Speaker 1: And then he said, now imagine you take that doorway,

70
00:03:23,480 --> 00:03:25,760
Speaker 1: that same doorway, and he said, put a fan on

71
00:03:25,760 --> 00:03:27,360
Speaker 1: the other side of the door, and opened the door.

72
00:03:27,680 --> 00:03:29,480
Speaker 1: And the fan if the strong, if it's strong enough,

73
00:03:29,520 --> 00:03:32,480
Speaker 1: it knocks you over. And when he was and he

74
00:03:32,560 --> 00:03:35,400
Speaker 1: was right, and his his point was it's all about

75
00:03:35,480 --> 00:03:39,160
Speaker 1: air flow. And in an engine, which is just a

76
00:03:39,240 --> 00:03:42,680
Speaker 1: big air pump, the piece that is really where the

77
00:03:42,720 --> 00:03:45,240
Speaker 1: airflow starts. And this was thinking back in the late

78
00:03:45,280 --> 00:03:48,120
Speaker 1: sixties early seventies and lots changed them, a lot of

79
00:03:48,160 --> 00:03:51,960
Speaker 1: researches has coming gone. Is the cam is the heart

80
00:03:51,960 --> 00:03:55,440
Speaker 1: and soul the engine. So if the cam was designed

81
00:03:55,480 --> 00:03:58,960
Speaker 1: to flow to four barrels at high rpm at the

82
00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:02,400
Speaker 1: track in a in a performance application, because where's the

83
00:04:02,400 --> 00:04:06,720
Speaker 1: power band of the engine coming in? Right, Why are

84
00:04:06,760 --> 00:04:10,000
Speaker 1: you trying to take a doorway that's designed for a

85
00:04:10,040 --> 00:04:13,280
Speaker 1: big giant fan and make it work with a doorway

86
00:04:13,320 --> 00:04:17,159
Speaker 1: without a fan with mismatched components you'll spend the rest

87
00:04:17,200 --> 00:04:20,800
Speaker 1: of your work. I hope you weren't gone. Yeah, you know,

88
00:04:21,160 --> 00:04:23,800
Speaker 1: I mean, you'll listen. I get it, you know what.

89
00:04:24,200 --> 00:04:27,719
Speaker 1: I I'm gonna tell you something. Black my hot rod,

90
00:04:27,920 --> 00:04:30,320
Speaker 1: all right, it's a small block. It was it was.

91
00:04:30,440 --> 00:04:32,120
Speaker 1: I was there when we when we gave it birth

92
00:04:32,160 --> 00:04:34,159
Speaker 1: on the Dino. I saw the torque curve. I know

93
00:04:34,160 --> 00:04:38,240
Speaker 1: where the where the RPM band is. I understand. All right.

94
00:04:38,880 --> 00:04:41,520
Speaker 1: Black sounds really neat with open headers. It just kind

95
00:04:41,520 --> 00:04:43,680
Speaker 1: of rumps along. And when you're pulling into the cruise night,

96
00:04:43,720 --> 00:04:46,880
Speaker 1: a black fifty five barking with open headers just sounds

97
00:04:46,920 --> 00:04:50,080
Speaker 1: really neat, and people turn their heads. The cars faster

98
00:04:50,160 --> 00:04:52,479
Speaker 1: when I close the headers. When I corked the headers,

99
00:04:52,520 --> 00:04:54,560
Speaker 1: it's when I corked the headers, it's for you know,

100
00:04:54,560 --> 00:04:56,880
Speaker 1: when I plug them up, the car goes faster, it

101
00:04:56,920 --> 00:04:59,880
Speaker 1: pulls harder. Uh, it's it's got more whacked to it.

102
00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:02,599
Speaker 1: It just it just is because it's designed to run

103
00:05:02,640 --> 00:05:05,440
Speaker 1: that way. When we you know, when we ran in

104
00:05:05,520 --> 00:05:07,440
Speaker 1: on the Dino, we jetted it one way and then

105
00:05:07,480 --> 00:05:09,359
Speaker 1: we jetted it another way, and we played with a

106
00:05:09,360 --> 00:05:12,680
Speaker 1: few things, and I saw the difference, and I made

107
00:05:12,680 --> 00:05:16,279
Speaker 1: the commitment to drive it with headers closed, really, because

108
00:05:16,279 --> 00:05:18,000
Speaker 1: where is it going to spend most of its life?

109
00:05:18,320 --> 00:05:23,280
Speaker 1: Headers closed? So you know, I understand it's cool, it's neat.

110
00:05:23,320 --> 00:05:25,720
Speaker 1: It's you know, the older we get, the faster we

111
00:05:25,720 --> 00:05:29,120
Speaker 1: were in high school, all right, you know, because our

112
00:05:29,160 --> 00:05:31,760
Speaker 1: our our memories gone. We don't remember things as clearly

113
00:05:31,800 --> 00:05:34,000
Speaker 1: as we'd like to. And we just hope that you know,

114
00:05:34,160 --> 00:05:36,240
Speaker 1: that's you know, I've always had that beer billy. That's

115
00:05:36,240 --> 00:05:40,440
Speaker 1: the way it was. Uh well, dude, listen, I got

116
00:05:40,480 --> 00:05:42,640
Speaker 1: the same problem. It's you know, it's but we've got

117
00:05:42,640 --> 00:05:45,760
Speaker 1: to face reality. You know. One of the things I

118
00:05:45,800 --> 00:05:48,320
Speaker 1: walked away with and I and I never forgot this

119
00:05:49,279 --> 00:05:51,040
Speaker 1: is when I was a kid and I was I

120
00:05:51,080 --> 00:05:53,279
Speaker 1: was surrounded. I was really blessed to be around some

121
00:05:53,320 --> 00:05:55,640
Speaker 1: of the smartest guys in the industry, you know, racing

122
00:05:55,640 --> 00:05:59,520
Speaker 1: cars at the time. And and I always remember this.

123
00:06:00,200 --> 00:06:01,760
Speaker 1: I was that kid that I said, well, you know,

124
00:06:01,800 --> 00:06:03,400
Speaker 1: if I had an oil pane, it will go faster,

125
00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:05,359
Speaker 1: and if I put ladder bars on, it will go faster.

126
00:06:05,400 --> 00:06:06,800
Speaker 1: And if I do this, it'll go faster. And da

127
00:06:06,839 --> 00:06:08,960
Speaker 1: da da da da da, And they would all look

128
00:06:08,960 --> 00:06:11,479
Speaker 1: at me and they'd go. Remember this, A lot of

129
00:06:11,520 --> 00:06:13,880
Speaker 1: research went into that car to make it run the

130
00:06:13,880 --> 00:06:15,560
Speaker 1: way it did out of the factory, by a lot

131
00:06:15,600 --> 00:06:19,920
Speaker 1: of engineers, and then you have to make progressive changes.

132
00:06:21,320 --> 00:06:26,200
Speaker 1: Mild goes wild was the expression. And that's that's fifty

133
00:06:26,200 --> 00:06:29,279
Speaker 1: six years old, and I never forgot that. And you

134
00:06:29,320 --> 00:06:31,480
Speaker 1: look at some of the fastest cars you knew in

135
00:06:31,600 --> 00:06:33,240
Speaker 1: your in your youth, and I know, some of the

136
00:06:33,279 --> 00:06:35,560
Speaker 1: fastest cars I know when I was a kid, Some

137
00:06:35,680 --> 00:06:39,320
Speaker 1: of the fastest cars were close to or stock out

138
00:06:39,320 --> 00:06:42,960
Speaker 1: of the factory that were just you know, massaged machine

139
00:06:43,480 --> 00:06:46,679
Speaker 1: modified slightly that they just worked on them a little

140
00:06:46,720 --> 00:06:49,000
Speaker 1: bit to kind of tweak a little bit more out

141
00:06:49,040 --> 00:06:51,839
Speaker 1: of it. Because this was the day of mechanical stuff.

142
00:06:51,880 --> 00:06:54,360
Speaker 1: There was no nitrous, there was no chip in the car,

143
00:06:54,800 --> 00:06:58,040
Speaker 1: there was no you know the way we see things today, Yeah,

144
00:06:58,120 --> 00:07:00,719
Speaker 1: turbos and all that. You it was just it was

145
00:07:00,760 --> 00:07:04,000
Speaker 1: a different time and a different era. So when people say, hey,

146
00:07:04,040 --> 00:07:05,800
Speaker 1: I want something, I want to be the fastest car

147
00:07:05,800 --> 00:07:08,640
Speaker 1: in the valley, man, that's really hard. Today. You know,

148
00:07:08,839 --> 00:07:10,960
Speaker 1: you can't be the fastest car in the valley anymore.

149
00:07:10,960 --> 00:07:13,200
Speaker 1: It's just the valley's gotten too big and there's too

150
00:07:13,280 --> 00:07:21,320
Speaker 1: much diversification, So you know it's it's it's I'd start, well, well,

151
00:07:22,320 --> 00:07:24,200
Speaker 1: i'd take a look at the heads you have on it.

152
00:07:24,720 --> 00:07:26,360
Speaker 1: I would take a look at what heads do you

153
00:07:26,400 --> 00:07:29,120
Speaker 1: have on it? What rocker arms are you running? In

154
00:07:29,160 --> 00:07:32,400
Speaker 1: other words, that I'm thinking rock arms, what ratio rocker arm?

155
00:07:32,480 --> 00:07:35,120
Speaker 1: All right? And and then I would talk about the cam,

156
00:07:35,160 --> 00:07:36,440
Speaker 1: and I would I would sit down, and then I

157
00:07:36,440 --> 00:07:38,480
Speaker 1: would look at the intake manifold that you really want

158
00:07:38,520 --> 00:07:41,680
Speaker 1: to run. And then I would look at the size

159
00:07:41,680 --> 00:07:43,640
Speaker 1: of the car. Do you really need an eight fifty.

160
00:07:43,920 --> 00:07:46,080
Speaker 1: I'm not saying you do, and I'm not saying you don't,

161
00:07:46,600 --> 00:07:49,800
Speaker 1: but it's airflow. Think of standing in front of that door.

162
00:07:50,760 --> 00:07:52,880
Speaker 1: Billy always said, you want to be able to open

163
00:07:52,880 --> 00:07:55,960
Speaker 1: the door and at least get through it without getting

164
00:07:56,000 --> 00:07:58,960
Speaker 1: knocked over. And if you have too big of a

165
00:07:59,000 --> 00:08:01,720
Speaker 1: fan or two mull of a door or two wide

166
00:08:01,720 --> 00:08:04,240
Speaker 1: of a door and the air flows wrong, you got

167
00:08:04,240 --> 00:08:08,640
Speaker 1: a problem. And and I know I got a problem. Right,

168
00:08:09,240 --> 00:08:13,080
Speaker 1: So you know before you you've probably got some big

169
00:08:13,160 --> 00:08:17,360
Speaker 1: rump seven fifty lift cam with some crazy duration and

170
00:08:18,440 --> 00:08:21,400
Speaker 1: you know, yeah, you know it's it's great on the

171
00:08:21,440 --> 00:08:23,280
Speaker 1: street because once you get that thing wound up to

172
00:08:23,360 --> 00:08:26,040
Speaker 1: about five six grand. Yeah, it's great. It pulls, It

173
00:08:26,120 --> 00:08:28,560
Speaker 1: pulls like a horse. But getting it there is a

174
00:08:28,560 --> 00:08:30,480
Speaker 1: big problem because all the air is coming in and

175
00:08:30,480 --> 00:08:33,679
Speaker 1: there's turbulence and there's all kinds of things going on.

176
00:08:34,760 --> 00:08:37,960
Speaker 1: So what do you what do you feel about the uh?

177
00:08:38,160 --> 00:08:41,720
Speaker 1: The stammering on acceleration. Um, I would solve the cam

178
00:08:41,800 --> 00:08:45,640
Speaker 1: problem first. What what what heads do you have on

179
00:08:45,679 --> 00:08:49,880
Speaker 1: this car? Sound? They're a littmitum open chambers? Okay, so

180
00:08:50,040 --> 00:08:52,760
Speaker 1: the aluminum open chamber head? And what compression ratio are

181
00:08:52,800 --> 00:08:56,960
Speaker 1: you running? Uh? Last I heard it was years ago,

182
00:08:57,720 --> 00:09:02,120
Speaker 1: but they were about thirteen and one, so you've got Okay,

183
00:09:02,600 --> 00:09:06,280
Speaker 1: so you're running a piston and compression ratio for those

184
00:09:06,320 --> 00:09:09,480
Speaker 1: that don't understand, is it's it's how much squeeze gets

185
00:09:09,520 --> 00:09:13,200
Speaker 1: put into the the fuel mixture in the cylinder before

186
00:09:13,360 --> 00:09:16,599
Speaker 1: the spark plug ignites it and expands to compress it.

187
00:09:16,679 --> 00:09:18,640
Speaker 1: The more you compress it, the tighter it goes boom,

188
00:09:18,720 --> 00:09:21,640
Speaker 1: the bigger the explosion. So you're running. Now are you running?

189
00:09:21,720 --> 00:09:23,760
Speaker 1: Are you running pump gas or what kind of fuel

190
00:09:23,760 --> 00:09:28,560
Speaker 1: are you putting in this camp? Two? Okay, so are

191
00:09:28,640 --> 00:09:31,920
Speaker 1: you gonna always run Cam two. Cell, I have to.

192
00:09:32,800 --> 00:09:35,480
Speaker 1: I can't let it through that note. Are you trying

193
00:09:35,520 --> 00:09:38,079
Speaker 1: to be the fastest car in the valley, Cell, No,

194
00:09:38,320 --> 00:09:41,120
Speaker 1: I'm trying to be the Actually what I did was

195
00:09:41,160 --> 00:09:43,400
Speaker 1: I tried to detO in the car because I wanted

196
00:09:43,440 --> 00:09:46,160
Speaker 1: to drive it on the street. Okay, And that's basically

197
00:09:46,280 --> 00:09:51,760
Speaker 1: my my what I'm looking for, um my problem. I

198
00:09:51,880 --> 00:09:54,840
Speaker 1: go to a stoplight and the car wants to stall

199
00:09:54,880 --> 00:09:57,240
Speaker 1: without me feathering the gas right because it's got no

200
00:09:57,360 --> 00:10:01,760
Speaker 1: vacuum at idle and and it's it's it's got the

201
00:10:01,800 --> 00:10:05,800
Speaker 1: wrong car, the wrong cam. It's just a mess. So

202
00:10:05,960 --> 00:10:10,840
Speaker 1: you can do this, well, well, well I would put

203
00:10:10,840 --> 00:10:12,679
Speaker 1: the tunnel ram back on in a smaller cam and

204
00:10:12,720 --> 00:10:16,160
Speaker 1: it would look really neat all. Right, you know it's

205
00:10:16,200 --> 00:10:18,280
Speaker 1: it's what are we chasing? Listen, there was a guy.

206
00:10:18,360 --> 00:10:19,920
Speaker 1: I'll tell you a quick story and then I'm gonna go.

207
00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:22,400
Speaker 1: There was a guy up here in Rockland County, Nicki

208
00:10:22,480 --> 00:10:24,280
Speaker 1: d Ambrosia. I don't know whatever happened to him. He

209
00:10:24,320 --> 00:10:26,520
Speaker 1: was what he was. He was Again, I was blessed.

210
00:10:26,559 --> 00:10:29,880
Speaker 1: I was surrounded by geniuses, I really was, And I

211
00:10:30,040 --> 00:10:32,520
Speaker 1: put I had this crazy idea as a kid, I

212
00:10:32,559 --> 00:10:34,520
Speaker 1: took a two eighty three. I took a two eighty

213
00:10:34,600 --> 00:10:38,160
Speaker 1: three um crank and a three seven block, and I

214
00:10:38,240 --> 00:10:40,160
Speaker 1: built myself a three oh two. I made a four

215
00:10:40,240 --> 00:10:43,720
Speaker 1: by three uh small block Chevy. And then somebody needed

216
00:10:43,760 --> 00:10:45,800
Speaker 1: rent money one day and they had a six sixty

217
00:10:45,840 --> 00:10:48,959
Speaker 1: double squirter holly intake tunnel ram set up and I

218
00:10:49,080 --> 00:10:51,040
Speaker 1: bought it. I paid like a hundred and fifty bucks

219
00:10:51,080 --> 00:10:53,719
Speaker 1: for At the time was, you know, six sevens I

220
00:10:53,760 --> 00:10:56,199
Speaker 1: didn't know it was a racing manifold. Nobody told me that.

221
00:10:56,400 --> 00:10:58,600
Speaker 1: I bolted it to the car. It was really cool

222
00:10:58,679 --> 00:11:01,000
Speaker 1: I had. I had a primary grade fifty five Chevy

223
00:11:01,240 --> 00:11:03,040
Speaker 1: with a tunnel ram sticking out through the hole in

224
00:11:03,080 --> 00:11:06,280
Speaker 1: the hood. Right, I couldn't make it run worth dutally?

225
00:11:06,800 --> 00:11:09,719
Speaker 1: All right. I walked into Nikki's one day up on

226
00:11:09,800 --> 00:11:12,520
Speaker 1: roof fifty nine in Rockland County, and he knew me

227
00:11:12,679 --> 00:11:14,920
Speaker 1: from somewhere, I forget where. And we got to talking

228
00:11:15,240 --> 00:11:16,880
Speaker 1: and he said, it just doesn't sound right, and he

229
00:11:17,000 --> 00:11:18,599
Speaker 1: spent an hour with me and we tuned it, and

230
00:11:18,679 --> 00:11:21,360
Speaker 1: we kind of cut back on everything. We de tuned

231
00:11:21,440 --> 00:11:24,680
Speaker 1: it all right. That car ran so strong going home.

232
00:11:24,720 --> 00:11:26,520
Speaker 1: I didn't want to get off the thru way. And

233
00:11:27,200 --> 00:11:29,599
Speaker 1: you know, it's just that's the way it is. So

234
00:11:29,800 --> 00:11:32,439
Speaker 1: de tune the car a little bit before you figure

235
00:11:32,440 --> 00:11:34,319
Speaker 1: out how to make it run like this. Make it

236
00:11:34,400 --> 00:11:36,280
Speaker 1: run a little slower so you can catch up to

237
00:11:36,360 --> 00:11:40,000
Speaker 1: it and understand it. And in your case, your problem, though,

238
00:11:40,120 --> 00:11:43,280
Speaker 1: is one is not gonna really cut it. The cam's

239
00:11:43,320 --> 00:11:46,200
Speaker 1: not gonna cut it. The heads are wrong because they're

240
00:11:46,240 --> 00:11:48,520
Speaker 1: designed for high flow. You might as well pull the

241
00:11:48,600 --> 00:11:50,680
Speaker 1: motor out, stick it in the corner in the garage,

242
00:11:51,200 --> 00:11:54,319
Speaker 1: all right, Tell your wife, listen, honey, I'm saving money.

243
00:11:54,640 --> 00:11:57,360
Speaker 1: Go down to the Chevy store. Buy a crate motor,

244
00:11:57,480 --> 00:11:59,760
Speaker 1: Go buy a go buy a five oh two big

245
00:12:00,240 --> 00:12:02,679
Speaker 1: designed for the street or something sticking in there with

246
00:12:02,720 --> 00:12:05,240
Speaker 1: a single four barrel, and you know what, you'll be

247
00:12:05,360 --> 00:12:08,160
Speaker 1: cheaper in the long run. Have fun. It's you know,

248
00:12:08,640 --> 00:12:10,920
Speaker 1: it's say that motor. Give that motor to your kids,

249
00:12:10,960 --> 00:12:12,560
Speaker 1: if you have any. If you don't have some kids

250
00:12:12,600 --> 00:12:14,679
Speaker 1: to give the motor to. I mean, that's really what

251
00:12:14,760 --> 00:12:18,120
Speaker 1: it's all about. But you're you're you're trying to fly.

252
00:12:18,920 --> 00:12:22,640
Speaker 1: You're trying to fly, you know, a jumbo jet on

253
00:12:22,720 --> 00:12:25,000
Speaker 1: the back of a biplane and it's just not gonna work.

254
00:12:25,679 --> 00:12:28,920
Speaker 1: So um, think about it. Sal, you got my number.

255
00:12:28,920 --> 00:12:30,240
Speaker 1: You know where I am. Call me if you got

256
00:12:30,280 --> 00:12:32,360
Speaker 1: any other questions. I gotta go there. They're looking at me.

257
00:12:32,400 --> 00:12:34,920
Speaker 1: I'm up against the clock. I enjoyed the conversation. I

258
00:12:35,000 --> 00:12:36,600
Speaker 1: got the Yeah, I got to relive some things from

259
00:12:36,640 --> 00:12:39,240
Speaker 1: the past. You take good care, Sal, You're very welcome.

260
00:12:39,240 --> 00:12:41,439
Speaker 1: I'm Ronny. In the car doctor. We're back right after this.

261
00:12:49,559 --> 00:12:52,839
Speaker 1: Whether it's a little red Corvette or you go, you've

262
00:12:52,880 --> 00:12:54,840
Speaker 1: come to the right place to get that car fixed.

263
00:12:55,679 --> 00:12:59,880
Speaker 1: In the car doctor, five five five zero zero zero.

264
00:13:00,320 --> 00:13:02,559
Speaker 1: Now back to ron Let's go over to Maine and

265
00:13:02,600 --> 00:13:05,840
Speaker 1: talk to Micaha and in the car doctor. Rate your service, sir,

266
00:13:05,880 --> 00:13:09,199
Speaker 1: How can I help? Well? Ron, I wanted to follow

267
00:13:09,320 --> 00:13:12,000
Speaker 1: up so that people knew what finally happened with my

268
00:13:12,120 --> 00:13:15,280
Speaker 1: car battery. And also I wanted to respectfully disagree with

269
00:13:15,360 --> 00:13:20,680
Speaker 1: something you said last week. Uh, power frame grid technology.

270
00:13:20,840 --> 00:13:22,880
Speaker 1: I searched all over for We talked about it a

271
00:13:22,960 --> 00:13:25,600
Speaker 1: little bit or through email, and I went to every

272
00:13:25,840 --> 00:13:28,679
Speaker 1: high quality auto parts store in the area, and they

273
00:13:28,760 --> 00:13:31,880
Speaker 1: just don't seem to make a powerframe grid technology battery

274
00:13:32,160 --> 00:13:36,520
Speaker 1: in group twenty five in a group they don't have

275
00:13:36,679 --> 00:13:38,679
Speaker 1: it for your car. That's correct, right, Well that's what

276
00:13:38,760 --> 00:13:42,480
Speaker 1: we found out. I agree, right, So I went with

277
00:13:42,520 --> 00:13:44,880
Speaker 1: another battery and everything's fine. And then in three and

278
00:13:44,920 --> 00:13:46,480
Speaker 1: a half years, when they finally make it for a

279
00:13:46,520 --> 00:13:48,280
Speaker 1: group twenty five and I have to replace it again,

280
00:13:48,559 --> 00:13:50,760
Speaker 1: we'll go with the power frame grid technology. But I

281
00:13:50,880 --> 00:13:53,040
Speaker 1: just thought that the audience people who might be shopping

282
00:13:53,040 --> 00:13:56,040
Speaker 1: here that might need to know that not all battery

283
00:13:56,120 --> 00:13:59,679
Speaker 1: groups are made are available with power frame grid technology.

284
00:14:00,040 --> 00:14:02,360
Speaker 1: It should definitely get it. If it's available too. Well,

285
00:14:02,400 --> 00:14:04,520
Speaker 1: and I'll tell you what not all battery groups have

286
00:14:05,080 --> 00:14:08,000
Speaker 1: a gold rating of silver rating A plus a minimum.

287
00:14:08,480 --> 00:14:11,600
Speaker 1: It's it's really kind of funny how the engineers designed

288
00:14:11,640 --> 00:14:14,679
Speaker 1: it that they get to a certain size for a

289
00:14:14,760 --> 00:14:18,320
Speaker 1: certain vehicle, for a certain cold cranking amps, and they

290
00:14:18,400 --> 00:14:20,600
Speaker 1: cut it off at the knees. Sometimes there aren't choices

291
00:14:20,680 --> 00:14:24,440
Speaker 1: to up, upsize or downsize a battery rating. So yeah,

292
00:14:24,560 --> 00:14:28,080
Speaker 1: and it's it's it was interesting. I actually learned that

293
00:14:28,160 --> 00:14:30,440
Speaker 1: I wasn't aware that power frame is not available in

294
00:14:30,520 --> 00:14:33,520
Speaker 1: all group sizes until you're a particular car. So um,

295
00:14:33,720 --> 00:14:35,480
Speaker 1: but yeah, I get it. At least you got a battery.

296
00:14:35,600 --> 00:14:39,440
Speaker 1: What else? What are we arguing about today, Mica. We're

297
00:14:39,480 --> 00:14:41,720
Speaker 1: not arguing, but we're going to discuss a little bit

298
00:14:41,880 --> 00:14:45,120
Speaker 1: about the remote starters. Last week you said, when you

299
00:14:45,160 --> 00:14:47,960
Speaker 1: were talking to someone about remote starters, you said, go

300
00:14:48,120 --> 00:14:49,520
Speaker 1: with the O E M one if you can, that

301
00:14:49,640 --> 00:14:52,760
Speaker 1: they they'll work the best. And I have found that

302
00:14:52,880 --> 00:14:56,560
Speaker 1: that's not necessarily true. Uh. What I found with all

303
00:14:56,600 --> 00:14:58,360
Speaker 1: the O e M starters that I have dealt with,

304
00:14:58,440 --> 00:15:00,560
Speaker 1: and I've dealt with quite a few helping buy them,

305
00:15:00,600 --> 00:15:02,920
Speaker 1: and what happens is that they're designed so that you

306
00:15:03,000 --> 00:15:06,080
Speaker 1: can start the car twice. It run up to twice,

307
00:15:06,560 --> 00:15:08,960
Speaker 1: it'll run for the pre program set about a time

308
00:15:09,000 --> 00:15:11,120
Speaker 1: which really can't be changed, and maybe ten minutes of

309
00:15:11,160 --> 00:15:13,840
Speaker 1: fifteen minutes, and then you can't restart it again if

310
00:15:13,880 --> 00:15:15,240
Speaker 1: you need to let it run for a long time,

311
00:15:15,280 --> 00:15:17,520
Speaker 1: which you do up here in Maine, if you're parked

312
00:15:17,560 --> 00:15:20,240
Speaker 1: outside and you need to help defrost the car and

313
00:15:20,320 --> 00:15:22,680
Speaker 1: get the snow off the car, etceteran. So on. The

314
00:15:22,800 --> 00:15:24,720
Speaker 1: other thing that happens with the O E M remote

315
00:15:24,800 --> 00:15:27,560
Speaker 1: that every manufacturer that I've seen does is that when

316
00:15:27,600 --> 00:15:29,600
Speaker 1: you O E M started and you unlock the car,

317
00:15:29,680 --> 00:15:32,120
Speaker 1: to get inside, the engine shuts off and you've got

318
00:15:32,200 --> 00:15:34,560
Speaker 1: to go back inside and restart it. They do that

319
00:15:34,720 --> 00:15:37,200
Speaker 1: for some kind of safety reason. And the O E

320
00:15:37,440 --> 00:15:40,160
Speaker 1: m's kind of remind me of the days and we're

321
00:15:40,280 --> 00:15:43,320
Speaker 1: the same age, the same vintage. Back in the nineteen seventies,

322
00:15:43,360 --> 00:15:46,280
Speaker 1: I worked for Crazy Eddies, and Crazy Eddie sold car

323
00:15:46,400 --> 00:15:49,000
Speaker 1: stereos and you could get an O M car stereo

324
00:15:49,080 --> 00:15:50,480
Speaker 1: that might have a cassette de game it, but you

325
00:15:50,480 --> 00:15:52,720
Speaker 1: couldn't get all the features that you wanted, and so

326
00:15:52,880 --> 00:15:55,000
Speaker 1: you put in an aftermarket one and you found a

327
00:15:55,040 --> 00:15:57,200
Speaker 1: good install It did a good job, and you had

328
00:15:57,360 --> 00:15:59,920
Speaker 1: so many more features and abilities. And in the aftermar

329
00:16:00,040 --> 00:16:02,880
Speaker 1: could remote starters. I can turn on my rear window

330
00:16:02,960 --> 00:16:05,360
Speaker 1: defrost with it. I can start it from up to

331
00:16:05,440 --> 00:16:07,240
Speaker 1: a mile away if I need to, so it'll be

332
00:16:07,320 --> 00:16:09,360
Speaker 1: ready for me when I get there. I can let

333
00:16:09,400 --> 00:16:10,920
Speaker 1: it run, set it to run for as long as

334
00:16:10,960 --> 00:16:12,680
Speaker 1: I need for it to run. And I can tell

335
00:16:12,760 --> 00:16:14,800
Speaker 1: remotely that it started or if it's not started, or

336
00:16:14,800 --> 00:16:16,440
Speaker 1: if there's a problem with it. But here's they just

337
00:16:16,520 --> 00:16:18,040
Speaker 1: don't get that with the O E M right now.

338
00:16:18,200 --> 00:16:20,640
Speaker 1: But here's the catch, okay, And this is why I

339
00:16:20,720 --> 00:16:24,480
Speaker 1: prefer O E M over aftermarket. The way the electronics

340
00:16:24,520 --> 00:16:27,240
Speaker 1: are going in the cars, that O E M starter

341
00:16:27,520 --> 00:16:30,600
Speaker 1: is generally a plug in play. It's we just did it.

342
00:16:30,680 --> 00:16:33,000
Speaker 1: We just did a remote start in a Subaru. We

343
00:16:33,120 --> 00:16:36,680
Speaker 1: bought the kid from Subaru. We unplugged the harness, plugged

344
00:16:36,720 --> 00:16:38,840
Speaker 1: in the remote start kit. There was no cutting, there

345
00:16:38,920 --> 00:16:42,240
Speaker 1: was no splicing, there was no soldering, and we programmed

346
00:16:42,280 --> 00:16:44,320
Speaker 1: it to accept remote start and the car was done.

347
00:16:44,920 --> 00:16:48,920
Speaker 1: Whereas the aftermarket kits and what I'm seeing is due

348
00:16:48,960 --> 00:16:51,680
Speaker 1: to installer error, and that's some of it. And granted

349
00:16:51,720 --> 00:16:54,600
Speaker 1: the the installer is responsible for some of it, but

350
00:16:54,760 --> 00:16:57,720
Speaker 1: it's either installer error or the way the wires have

351
00:16:57,840 --> 00:17:01,560
Speaker 1: to be connected to individual wires body computers, controllers and such.

352
00:17:02,160 --> 00:17:07,240
Speaker 1: It's not as clean and as sloppy and effortless of

353
00:17:07,320 --> 00:17:12,359
Speaker 1: an install So my my my line of thinking is

354
00:17:12,440 --> 00:17:14,560
Speaker 1: what's more important to me to be able to turn

355
00:17:14,600 --> 00:17:16,320
Speaker 1: on a rear wiper blade when I want to because

356
00:17:16,359 --> 00:17:18,080
Speaker 1: I'm not in the car at that moment and I

357
00:17:18,200 --> 00:17:21,960
Speaker 1: respect that, okay, Or do I want to be able

358
00:17:22,040 --> 00:17:24,520
Speaker 1: to know that it's gonna last the life and the

359
00:17:24,680 --> 00:17:27,560
Speaker 1: length of service of the vehicle such that I don't

360
00:17:27,600 --> 00:17:30,240
Speaker 1: have to deal with you know, something went bad, the

361
00:17:30,359 --> 00:17:34,200
Speaker 1: manufacturer went out. I dropped the key remote five years later,

362
00:17:34,280 --> 00:17:37,280
Speaker 1: and I can't get a replacement part because they don't

363
00:17:37,320 --> 00:17:42,080
Speaker 1: make that particular model anymore. And with the changes in electronics,

364
00:17:42,400 --> 00:17:46,960
Speaker 1: it's changing so fast that I'm always thinking about replacement parts.

365
00:17:47,000 --> 00:17:49,520
Speaker 1: So maybe I've got a trade off being able to

366
00:17:49,600 --> 00:17:52,120
Speaker 1: restart the car for that third time to know I've

367
00:17:52,160 --> 00:17:54,200
Speaker 1: got longevity. If I keep the car ten years, I

368
00:17:54,240 --> 00:17:57,679
Speaker 1: can always get parts for it. So I get it, Micah,

369
00:17:57,760 --> 00:18:00,879
Speaker 1: I understand. I get where you're coming. Um Um. I've

370
00:18:00,920 --> 00:18:02,600
Speaker 1: just got a little bit of a different perspective, and

371
00:18:02,600 --> 00:18:04,960
Speaker 1: I'm always just thinking about sooner or later it's gonna break,

372
00:18:05,400 --> 00:18:08,320
Speaker 1: and you know, somebody's gotta fix it. As always, brother,

373
00:18:08,359 --> 00:18:10,560
Speaker 1: I appreciate hearing from you. You have a good rest

374
00:18:10,600 --> 00:18:12,240
Speaker 1: of the day up there in Maine, and uh we

375
00:18:12,240 --> 00:18:14,200
Speaker 1: always look forward to your comments. I'm running any in

376
00:18:14,200 --> 00:18:17,600
Speaker 1: the car Doctor five zero nine zero zero. We're back

377
00:18:17,720 --> 00:18:41,080
Speaker 1: right after this. Don't go away? Ye, hey, welcome back.

378
00:18:41,160 --> 00:18:42,760
Speaker 1: Why don't any of the car doctor rolling along at

379
00:18:42,800 --> 00:18:45,720
Speaker 1: a five zero nine zero zero. I should point out

380
00:18:45,760 --> 00:18:48,159
Speaker 1: that as the Car Doctor seven phone number, you can

381
00:18:48,240 --> 00:18:50,560
Speaker 1: call that any time day or night, regardless of winter.

382
00:18:50,640 --> 00:18:53,119
Speaker 1: How you're listening to this broadcast and uh, you know,

383
00:18:53,240 --> 00:18:55,520
Speaker 1: obviously this is a radio show and it's heart in

384
00:18:55,560 --> 00:18:58,040
Speaker 1: its form. This is a radio show. Some people are confused.

385
00:18:58,080 --> 00:19:00,119
Speaker 1: They think we're early on podcast. Now you see, the

386
00:19:00,240 --> 00:19:02,879
Speaker 1: radio show creates the podcast, not the other way around.

387
00:19:03,280 --> 00:19:05,200
Speaker 1: So if you're a podcaster and you want to talk

388
00:19:05,240 --> 00:19:07,040
Speaker 1: to us, we are here live in studio doing a

389
00:19:07,200 --> 00:19:10,639
Speaker 1: live radio broadcast, uh at Saturday afternoons to the four

390
00:19:10,720 --> 00:19:15,520
Speaker 1: pm East Coast time where East Coasters at five zero zero.

391
00:19:15,880 --> 00:19:18,159
Speaker 1: Or you can call leave a message and Tom Ray

392
00:19:18,240 --> 00:19:21,480
Speaker 1: chief head cook, bottle washer and uh all around good guy.

393
00:19:21,800 --> 00:19:23,359
Speaker 1: We'll call you back and they put you in the

394

Speaker 1: next life. Que to get to talk to me specifically,

395
00:19:25,880 --> 00:19:27,560
Speaker 1: and you wanted to talk to Tom for very long,

396
00:19:27,640 --> 00:19:30,040
Speaker 1: I promise, So I love you Tom. Let's get on

397
00:19:30,119 --> 00:19:32,919
Speaker 1: over and talk to Glenn and San Francisco two thousand

398
00:19:33,000 --> 00:19:35,800
Speaker 1: one GMC and some problems with smock. Glenn, Welcome to

399
00:19:35,840 --> 00:19:39,400
Speaker 1: the car doctor. How can I help? Yes, Uh, let's

400
00:19:39,440 --> 00:19:42,040
Speaker 1: call it regarding my two thousand one g m C.

401
00:19:45,280 --> 00:19:50,479
Speaker 1: It's been uh none up for the last several years.

402
00:19:51,480 --> 00:19:53,600
Speaker 1: I've gone out and started that once in a while,

403
00:19:54,320 --> 00:19:57,320
Speaker 1: but during that time the battery went dead. And and

404
00:19:57,680 --> 00:19:59,879
Speaker 1: now I've decided to take it in and get it

405
00:20:00,560 --> 00:20:04,639
Speaker 1: running again and have it smugged. And the mechanic tells

406
00:20:04,720 --> 00:20:08,240
Speaker 1: me that the computer module needs to be reset, and

407
00:20:08,400 --> 00:20:12,920
Speaker 1: there's three functions that need to be reset, and he's

408
00:20:12,960 --> 00:20:15,160
Speaker 1: been able to reset two of them, but you can't

409
00:20:15,200 --> 00:20:20,320
Speaker 1: get the third one to reset. And it's been several

410
00:20:20,400 --> 00:20:23,280
Speaker 1: weeks now that he's basically what he's told me is

411
00:20:23,359 --> 00:20:29,119
Speaker 1: that it just needs to be driven around and for

412
00:20:29,280 --> 00:20:32,520
Speaker 1: it to reset. I'm wondering he's talking about it's not

413
00:20:32,680 --> 00:20:35,280
Speaker 1: running monitors. Does he say the word monitors or does

414
00:20:35,359 --> 00:20:38,440
Speaker 1: he say does he say? How does he describe into

415
00:20:38,520 --> 00:20:41,800
Speaker 1: you he's talking about Yeah, yeah, he can't. He cannot

416
00:20:41,840 --> 00:20:45,600
Speaker 1: connect to his diagnostic machine to it because of the

417
00:20:45,680 --> 00:20:49,520
Speaker 1: computer won't reset. Ok, you can't read it. He can't

418
00:20:49,560 --> 00:20:54,000
Speaker 1: read it. Does he say which one won't reset? He

419
00:20:54,119 --> 00:20:56,280
Speaker 1: hasn't told I would have. I haven't told as him

420
00:20:56,320 --> 00:21:01,200
Speaker 1: that yet, but no, so let me just let me

421
00:21:02,240 --> 00:21:04,199
Speaker 1: how do you go about it? So let me let

422
00:21:04,240 --> 00:21:05,919
Speaker 1: me let me explain it to you like this, Glenn,

423
00:21:06,000 --> 00:21:07,719
Speaker 1: all right, and I'm and I'm taking a little bit

424
00:21:07,760 --> 00:21:10,080
Speaker 1: of a a poke in the dark here because I

425
00:21:10,359 --> 00:21:12,200
Speaker 1: think we've got the right terminology, but we don't have

426
00:21:12,320 --> 00:21:16,879
Speaker 1: enough information. Um, you went to high school, right, what

427
00:21:17,240 --> 00:21:22,760
Speaker 1: was your worst subject? Did you have a bad subject? Math? Math? Okay?

428
00:21:23,240 --> 00:21:28,080
Speaker 1: Did you take every math test? Did you complete every

429
00:21:28,119 --> 00:21:33,720
Speaker 1: math test? Did you? Did you? Did you pass every

430
00:21:33,800 --> 00:21:38,960
Speaker 1: math test? Okay? So your math test is like your

431
00:21:39,000 --> 00:21:43,919
Speaker 1: car's computer. Your car's computer has several subjects or several

432
00:21:44,080 --> 00:21:49,160
Speaker 1: areas that it it has to test and identify each

433
00:21:49,240 --> 00:21:51,720
Speaker 1: and every moment that it's working and running the vehicle.

434
00:21:52,400 --> 00:21:56,680
Speaker 1: All right, we call the monitors and it's it's the

435
00:21:56,840 --> 00:22:00,760
Speaker 1: the monitor or the computer self test of those particular functions,

436
00:22:00,840 --> 00:22:04,680
Speaker 1: and it varies from year, make model. The most common

437
00:22:04,800 --> 00:22:09,040
Speaker 1: ones are, uh, it's it's checking misfire monitors the vehicle misfiring.

438
00:22:09,119 --> 00:22:13,600
Speaker 1: It's checking catalytic converter state, is checking evaporative emissions, it's

439
00:22:13,720 --> 00:22:17,159
Speaker 1: checking O two censor activity. And the list goes on

440
00:22:17,280 --> 00:22:19,400
Speaker 1: and on. Depending upon the ear making model. There could

441
00:22:19,400 --> 00:22:22,040
Speaker 1: be anywhere from a minimum of six to you know,

442
00:22:22,200 --> 00:22:25,320
Speaker 1: probably as many as fourteen, depending upon the type and

443
00:22:25,400 --> 00:22:29,879
Speaker 1: make of car. My suspicion is that the test that

444
00:22:30,000 --> 00:22:35,440
Speaker 1: your computer isn't able to complete is evaporative emissions. And

445
00:22:35,520 --> 00:22:37,000
Speaker 1: that's what I want you to go back and ask

446
00:22:37,040 --> 00:22:41,679
Speaker 1: your mechanic if it's EVAPP. Evaporative emissions is the measurement

447
00:22:41,960 --> 00:22:46,400
Speaker 1: of is the fuel tank, is the fuel system sealed

448
00:22:46,640 --> 00:22:51,200
Speaker 1: so that no fumes come out into the atmosphere, and

449
00:22:52,320 --> 00:22:57,000
Speaker 1: it is acknowledgeing it is the hardest test. Well, it's

450
00:22:57,000 --> 00:22:59,160
Speaker 1: one of the harder tests to get the vehicle to take.

451
00:22:59,240 --> 00:23:02,160
Speaker 1: It's sort of like a vance mathematics. It doesn't really

452
00:23:02,160 --> 00:23:04,480
Speaker 1: want to complete because it's afraid of the answer. So

453
00:23:05,560 --> 00:23:08,879
Speaker 1: this car sat for a while, you said, all right,

454
00:23:09,480 --> 00:23:11,800
Speaker 1: So the fact that this car sat for a while,

455
00:23:12,320 --> 00:23:16,800
Speaker 1: a couple of months, a year, two years, okay. So

456
00:23:17,240 --> 00:23:21,080
Speaker 1: one of the biggest failures of the EVAPP systems is

457
00:23:21,200 --> 00:23:26,639
Speaker 1: something called a vent solenoid, all right. And what happens

458
00:23:26,680 --> 00:23:28,720
Speaker 1: is I don't know why, but spiders like to crawl

459
00:23:28,840 --> 00:23:31,800
Speaker 1: up inside vince solenoids and build spider webs and they

460
00:23:31,880 --> 00:23:33,760
Speaker 1: do all kinds of nasty things in there. I think

461
00:23:33,760 --> 00:23:36,920
Speaker 1: it's where they have baby spiders. And vince solenoids have

462
00:23:37,000 --> 00:23:40,240
Speaker 1: been known to become clogged, restricted, not worked properly, not

463
00:23:40,359 --> 00:23:45,080
Speaker 1: sealed properly, and they in general were probably the weakest

464
00:23:45,119 --> 00:23:48,920
Speaker 1: link in the vehicle in that system. So you know,

465
00:23:49,000 --> 00:23:50,800
Speaker 1: if you could ask him, hey, you know, I talked.

466
00:23:50,880 --> 00:23:52,320
Speaker 1: I talked to the car doctor, and I want to

467
00:23:52,359 --> 00:23:55,480
Speaker 1: know what what monitor is not running? Which will probably

468
00:23:55,520 --> 00:23:57,840
Speaker 1: rattle this cage when he hears monitor, Um, not so much,

469
00:23:57,880 --> 00:24:01,439
Speaker 1: card doctor, And you know, is it the evapp system?

470
00:24:01,480 --> 00:24:03,879
Speaker 1: If he says it's the evapp system, then you know,

471
00:24:04,119 --> 00:24:07,919
Speaker 1: let's diagnose it, all right, and and and we can

472
00:24:08,000 --> 00:24:11,680
Speaker 1: talk about that. So in an EVAPP system. Do you

473
00:24:11,720 --> 00:24:15,320
Speaker 1: live in a house or an apartment? Okay? Do you

474
00:24:15,359 --> 00:24:18,720
Speaker 1: have a front door and the back door? Perfect? So

475
00:24:19,960 --> 00:24:22,320
Speaker 1: the gas tank in your in your truck, all right,

476
00:24:22,440 --> 00:24:25,320
Speaker 1: you have a gas tank, you have a purge valve,

477
00:24:25,480 --> 00:24:29,000
Speaker 1: you have a vent valve, front door, back door. The

478
00:24:29,080 --> 00:24:31,080
Speaker 1: gas tanks in the middle, the houses in the middle.

479
00:24:31,560 --> 00:24:33,960
Speaker 1: When the air in the house has to be you know,

480
00:24:33,960 --> 00:24:36,000
Speaker 1: when there's the air in the house, you know you're

481
00:24:36,040 --> 00:24:38,520
Speaker 1: cooking something and you know that in the inside you're

482
00:24:38,560 --> 00:24:40,400
Speaker 1: you're making let me say, what can we We're making

483
00:24:40,440 --> 00:24:43,320
Speaker 1: Brussels sprouts, all right, and all of a sudden it

484
00:24:43,400 --> 00:24:45,480
Speaker 1: stinks inside the house. You gotta get some mayre in

485
00:24:45,520 --> 00:24:47,720
Speaker 1: there while you open up the front door. It's not enough.

486
00:24:47,720 --> 00:24:49,400
Speaker 1: You gotta open up the back door the front door,

487
00:24:49,480 --> 00:24:52,480
Speaker 1: so the air comes through and scavenges all the fumes

488
00:24:52,480 --> 00:24:54,520
Speaker 1: out of the house and takes it out the front door. Right,

489
00:24:55,760 --> 00:24:58,920
Speaker 1: same thing with your car, all right. There's a vent

490
00:24:59,040 --> 00:25:00,880
Speaker 1: valve which is in the back of the gas tank,

491
00:25:01,280 --> 00:25:03,200
Speaker 1: and there's a purge valve which is in the front

492
00:25:03,200 --> 00:25:05,520
Speaker 1: of the gas tank, and it's attached to the engine.

493
00:25:05,760 --> 00:25:07,880
Speaker 1: When the computer says at the right moment, hey, there's

494
00:25:07,880 --> 00:25:09,600
Speaker 1: so many fumes in the in the tank, or there's

495
00:25:09,640 --> 00:25:12,080
Speaker 1: too many fumes in the charcoal canister, which is the

496
00:25:12,160 --> 00:25:14,640
Speaker 1: filter which we really haven't talked about yet. We want

497
00:25:14,680 --> 00:25:17,160
Speaker 1: to remove all the fumes. It opens up the doors

498
00:25:17,200 --> 00:25:20,000
Speaker 1: and it allows fresh air to be pulled through and

499
00:25:20,119 --> 00:25:22,960
Speaker 1: gets the fumes into the engine where it can burn. Now,

500
00:25:23,720 --> 00:25:25,760
Speaker 1: the goal is, we don't want to let the bed

501
00:25:25,880 --> 00:25:28,200
Speaker 1: Brussels sprouts smell go out into the atmosphere. We don't

502
00:25:28,200 --> 00:25:30,520
Speaker 1: want to let the fuel fumes go out into the atmosphere.

503
00:25:31,240 --> 00:25:33,880
Speaker 1: So it will it will close either the back door

504
00:25:34,040 --> 00:25:37,320
Speaker 1: the front door in particular times and and pull a vacuum.

505
00:25:37,480 --> 00:25:39,959
Speaker 1: Is the system got integrity is it is it's sealed

506
00:25:40,000 --> 00:25:45,800
Speaker 1: to atmosphere. If if it doesn't pass that test, you

507
00:25:46,000 --> 00:25:48,719
Speaker 1: fail math and the car doesn't get an inspection sticker.

508
00:25:49,080 --> 00:25:53,160
Speaker 1: Makes sense. So so if we're trying to fix EVAP,

509
00:25:53,400 --> 00:25:55,240
Speaker 1: we've got to find out what are the parameters to

510
00:25:55,320 --> 00:25:57,280
Speaker 1: make that EVAP monitor run. And here's what I'm gonna

511
00:25:57,359 --> 00:25:59,879
Speaker 1: leave you with. If you've got more than three quarters

512
00:25:59,920 --> 00:26:02,080
Speaker 1: of a tank of fuel or less than a quarter

513
00:26:02,160 --> 00:26:05,960
Speaker 1: tank of fuel, the EVAP monitor will never ever run,

514
00:26:06,480 --> 00:26:09,119
Speaker 1: period done. It's just it's in the programming of the

515
00:26:09,160 --> 00:26:12,040
Speaker 1: majority of vehicles out there on the road today. So

516
00:26:12,680 --> 00:26:16,320
Speaker 1: if they can just saying just drive the car. Listen, brother,

517
00:26:16,400 --> 00:26:18,159
Speaker 1: you can start in San Francisco and end up in

518
00:26:18,200 --> 00:26:20,200
Speaker 1: waldenp New Jersey. I'll buy you a coffee, and the

519
00:26:20,359 --> 00:26:22,600
Speaker 1: monitors still not gonna run. If you always have more

520
00:26:22,680 --> 00:26:24,560
Speaker 1: than three quarters of a tank or less than a

521
00:26:24,640 --> 00:26:27,760
Speaker 1: quarter tank of fuel, it's just never gonna happen. So

522
00:26:28,400 --> 00:26:30,880
Speaker 1: ask him what monitor we're trying to run, and ask

523
00:26:30,960 --> 00:26:34,760
Speaker 1: him what conditions need to be set before the monitor

524
00:26:34,800 --> 00:26:37,280
Speaker 1: will run successfully. Let's see how he answers that question.

525
00:26:37,320 --> 00:26:40,080
Speaker 1: Call me back next week, all right, thank you? All right?

526
00:26:40,080 --> 00:26:42,880
Speaker 1: You're very welcome. You take good care. Five zero nine

527
00:26:43,160 --> 00:26:46,120
Speaker 1: zero zero. I help your Brussels sprouts come out good tonight, America.

528
00:26:46,160 --> 00:26:47,920
Speaker 1: I'll run an Indian the car doctor. I'll be back

529
00:26:48,040 --> 00:26:56,040
Speaker 1: right after this fucking back on any of the car

530
00:26:56,119 --> 00:26:57,919
Speaker 1: doctor here. Let's get over and talk to where are

531
00:26:57,920 --> 00:27:00,080
Speaker 1: we going? One or two to Let's go to to

532
00:27:00,200 --> 00:27:03,399
Speaker 1: Let's go to Robin, Tennessee to explorer Rob. How can

533
00:27:03,440 --> 00:27:06,800
Speaker 1: I help you? Sir? Oh? Yes, something an issue similar

534
00:27:06,960 --> 00:27:14,200
Speaker 1: to the last color the code zero zero four four three, okay, problem. Yeah,

535
00:27:15,080 --> 00:27:18,359
Speaker 1: I did some trouble shooting on it, and I removed it,

536
00:27:18,680 --> 00:27:22,000
Speaker 1: and I thought it had a you know, so electrically

537
00:27:22,040 --> 00:27:25,200
Speaker 1: operated solenoid develops in it, and I applied TOIL votes

538
00:27:25,280 --> 00:27:28,720
Speaker 1: to it and it didn't make any sound. So I

539
00:27:28,880 --> 00:27:34,600
Speaker 1: replaced it in the code reset and I checked the

540
00:27:34,680 --> 00:27:37,680
Speaker 1: voltage on the line feeding it, and it's you know,

541
00:27:37,840 --> 00:27:40,640
Speaker 1: varying some five to thirteen votes, which you know, kind

542
00:27:40,680 --> 00:27:43,879
Speaker 1: of cycling, which I think is supposed to. So I

543
00:27:44,000 --> 00:27:46,240
Speaker 1: didn't know where to go from here. Okay, So, so

544
00:27:46,359 --> 00:27:48,440
Speaker 1: you've got a P zero four four three of Vapor

545
00:27:48,600 --> 00:27:53,080
Speaker 1: Management VMV solenoid fault correct. So the v M v

546
00:27:53,280 --> 00:27:56,840
Speaker 1: is located under the battery tray. Yes, I replaced it,

547
00:27:56,960 --> 00:28:00,800
Speaker 1: all right, Do you still have the old one? No? Unfortunately,

548
00:28:00,960 --> 00:28:03,640
Speaker 1: all right, we have to stop throwing out the old part.

549
00:28:03,800 --> 00:28:06,000
Speaker 1: I'm not I'm not yelling at you specifically, Rob, but

550
00:28:06,040 --> 00:28:07,919
Speaker 1: everybody does this. You know when I you know, when

551
00:28:07,960 --> 00:28:09,800
Speaker 1: I throw the parts out at the shop about ten

552
00:28:09,880 --> 00:28:11,760
Speaker 1: days after the car is gone. Not that I doubt

553
00:28:11,800 --> 00:28:14,640
Speaker 1: what I do, but you know, the weirdest things come

554
00:28:14,720 --> 00:28:16,200
Speaker 1: up and you just need to look at an old

555
00:28:16,240 --> 00:28:18,119
Speaker 1: part for some reason. It's just it's just it's just

556
00:28:18,160 --> 00:28:21,280
Speaker 1: a good idea to keep it. Yeah, when I applied

557
00:28:21,320 --> 00:28:23,160
Speaker 1: toil volts to it, I thought I had a soul

558
00:28:23,200 --> 00:28:24,920
Speaker 1: in the wold velve in it. But I don't believe it,

559
00:28:25,040 --> 00:28:28,480
Speaker 1: does you know? I think it's a vacuum operated, isn't it? Well, no,

560
00:28:28,640 --> 00:28:31,119
Speaker 1: there should be there should be electrical there. There should

561
00:28:31,160 --> 00:28:35,000
Speaker 1: be this should have two hoses, one in, one out

562
00:28:35,080 --> 00:28:37,760
Speaker 1: and then electrical connection. That's got a hot and the

563
00:28:37,800 --> 00:28:41,480
Speaker 1: computer applies ground when it wants to open or clothes. Well,

564
00:28:41,560 --> 00:28:44,480
Speaker 1: there's a there's a vacuum. Vacuum ho was on the

565
00:28:44,520 --> 00:28:48,320
Speaker 1: bottom of it? Okay? Right? And there is there actually

566
00:28:48,400 --> 00:28:51,440
Speaker 1: is a third vacuum hose underneath it, but it's it's

567
00:28:51,480 --> 00:28:54,520
Speaker 1: that the one that actuates it. Um No, this is

568
00:28:54,600 --> 00:28:59,200
Speaker 1: electrically actuated. This is this is the computer. Four three

569
00:29:00,000 --> 00:29:03,880
Speaker 1: suggest that the PCM, the power chain control module, is

570
00:29:03,920 --> 00:29:08,920
Speaker 1: seeing an electrical control fault of that solenoid. That it's

571
00:29:09,040 --> 00:29:11,800
Speaker 1: it's not seeing it activate. It's not seeing it's it's

572
00:29:11,920 --> 00:29:15,720
Speaker 1: it changed state or there's a fault in the electrical

573
00:29:15,840 --> 00:29:20,000
Speaker 1: circuit itself. Okay. I removed the old one and tests.

574
00:29:21,400 --> 00:29:26,080
Speaker 1: It doesn't make any sound either, okay, and you know

575
00:29:26,200 --> 00:29:29,080
Speaker 1: the resistance on it, it's like thirty three ohms, which

576
00:29:29,200 --> 00:29:33,000
Speaker 1: is right, you know? Correct? Okay, So do this. There's

577
00:29:33,000 --> 00:29:34,479
Speaker 1: a red wire. I'm gonna give you. I'm gonna give

578
00:29:34,520 --> 00:29:36,040
Speaker 1: you two simple tests and then i'm gonna let you go.

579
00:29:36,080 --> 00:29:38,280
Speaker 1: You're gonna call me back next week. There's a red

580
00:29:38,360 --> 00:29:41,480
Speaker 1: wire at the v M V valve right if you

581
00:29:41,600 --> 00:29:44,960
Speaker 1: turn the key on in the run position. Doesn't have

582
00:29:45,040 --> 00:29:50,800
Speaker 1: battery voltage. I don't remember, but when I started it

583
00:29:50,880 --> 00:29:53,800
Speaker 1: without it plugged in, and you know, it had volted

584
00:29:53,840 --> 00:29:56,320
Speaker 1: showing it, it was very you know, cycling like from

585
00:29:56,440 --> 00:30:00,760
Speaker 1: like five votes votes. Okay, I think it's what it's well,

586
00:30:01,360 --> 00:30:03,720
Speaker 1: hang on a second. You you turn the key to

587
00:30:03,800 --> 00:30:08,000
Speaker 1: the run position. That red wire should have a solid,

588
00:30:09,280 --> 00:30:13,040
Speaker 1: a solid reading of battery voltage. It's not supposed to cycle.

589
00:30:13,440 --> 00:30:16,480
Speaker 1: Just that that red wire just one end to the

590
00:30:16,560 --> 00:30:19,480
Speaker 1: negative battery post, one end to the the positive end

591
00:30:19,520 --> 00:30:24,120
Speaker 1: to the red wire. You should read battery voltage. We

592
00:30:24,480 --> 00:30:27,760
Speaker 1: also recently, I've not been able to seal the gas

593
00:30:27,880 --> 00:30:31,360
Speaker 1: pink almost all the way. Do we want to go?

594
00:30:31,720 --> 00:30:33,360
Speaker 1: Let's let's stay at the front of the car a minute,

595
00:30:33,560 --> 00:30:36,040
Speaker 1: all right, So you know, you want to make sure

596
00:30:36,080 --> 00:30:38,880
Speaker 1: you have power at that red wire. It shouldn't be cycling,

597
00:30:39,040 --> 00:30:42,640
Speaker 1: all right. The there's a light green black wire at

598
00:30:42,640 --> 00:30:44,600
Speaker 1: the v m V that's the ground side. It comes

599
00:30:44,640 --> 00:30:48,280
Speaker 1: off the power train control module Pin fifty six. You

600
00:30:48,320 --> 00:30:50,720
Speaker 1: want to make sure that you have continuity at the

601
00:30:50,880 --> 00:30:53,440
Speaker 1: v m V, at the vapor management valve solenoid under

602
00:30:53,480 --> 00:30:56,640
Speaker 1: the battery tray back to the PCM that you've got

603
00:30:56,720 --> 00:31:00,080
Speaker 1: continuity there. If you do, that's the electrical circuit it

604
00:31:00,480 --> 00:31:03,400
Speaker 1: then we can have a conversation. Does the PCM isn't

605
00:31:03,400 --> 00:31:04,880
Speaker 1: able to turn it on? Turn it off? And so

606
00:31:05,080 --> 00:31:08,520
Speaker 1: forth to the can't fuel up the car problem? That

607
00:31:08,760 --> 00:31:11,560
Speaker 1: could be all right, that could be related to this.

608
00:31:12,200 --> 00:31:14,479
Speaker 1: But before we even have that conversation and I make

609
00:31:14,520 --> 00:31:17,040
Speaker 1: sure we're working electrically, that could be an issue. Back

610
00:31:17,120 --> 00:31:20,160
Speaker 1: at the neck, inside the fuel neck on that vehicle

611
00:31:20,800 --> 00:31:24,360
Speaker 1: is an inner sleeve inside the fuel neck, and they're

612
00:31:24,440 --> 00:31:27,960
Speaker 1: known to pull off over time and create enough back

613
00:31:28,040 --> 00:31:31,120
Speaker 1: pressure that it pops the pump. Do you have to

614
00:31:31,160 --> 00:31:33,720
Speaker 1: turn the pump nozzle around upside down and kind of

615
00:31:33,800 --> 00:31:35,680
Speaker 1: jump a little bit to get it so when you

616
00:31:35,760 --> 00:31:37,200
Speaker 1: say it doesn't, When you say you have a hard

617
00:31:37,240 --> 00:31:39,200
Speaker 1: time putting fuel in it, what does it do? I

618
00:31:39,240 --> 00:31:41,880
Speaker 1: don't have a hard time putting fuel in the gas gates.

619
00:31:43,080 --> 00:31:45,440
Speaker 1: You know it's only going to maybe SABL eights fuel.

620
00:31:45,560 --> 00:31:51,719
Speaker 1: Now seem like it all started when this code sit okay, Um,

621
00:31:51,960 --> 00:31:54,880
Speaker 1: that dovent valve on the back of the tank, it

622
00:31:55,040 --> 00:31:59,120
Speaker 1: has a different code, doesn't it correct? You're dealing You're

623
00:31:59,160 --> 00:32:01,240
Speaker 1: dealing with it. You're dealing with a V M V fault,

624
00:32:01,280 --> 00:32:03,920
Speaker 1: which in English is a purge. It's a it's the

625
00:32:04,000 --> 00:32:06,320
Speaker 1: front door. Remember the analogy I gave I gave the

626
00:32:06,400 --> 00:32:10,520
Speaker 1: gentleman from San Francisco, Um, your your car is setting

627
00:32:10,560 --> 00:32:13,480
Speaker 1: a front door fault code? For the EVAP system. Okay,

628
00:32:13,640 --> 00:32:16,480
Speaker 1: so the red wires should have twelve volts the switch

629
00:32:16,680 --> 00:32:19,840
Speaker 1: the switch on and not started right ignition, Yeah, kon

630
00:32:19,920 --> 00:32:22,200
Speaker 1: engine not running, you should have twelve vaults there and

631
00:32:22,280 --> 00:32:24,800
Speaker 1: then that light green black. Now that light green black

632
00:32:24,920 --> 00:32:27,960
Speaker 1: goes back to the PCM. Don't put any voltage to it.

633
00:32:28,360 --> 00:32:31,880
Speaker 1: Don't do anything else other than find pin fifty six

634
00:32:31,960 --> 00:32:35,120
Speaker 1: at the right connector of the PCM and check resistance

635
00:32:35,200 --> 00:32:38,240
Speaker 1: between the two. And that way we know that the

636
00:32:38,320 --> 00:32:42,200
Speaker 1: computer can control it shouldn't want to, all right, and

637
00:32:42,280 --> 00:32:44,120
Speaker 1: then call me back next week and we'll talk about

638
00:32:44,160 --> 00:32:47,320
Speaker 1: this further. That's your assignment this week. Rob eight zero

639
00:32:47,440 --> 00:32:57,120
Speaker 1: nine zero. The car doctors back right after this, Welcome back.

640
00:32:57,160 --> 00:32:58,840
Speaker 1: Why don't any of the car doctor rolling along at

641
00:32:58,840 --> 00:33:04,040
Speaker 1: a zero zero Mike in Massachusetts Chevy Silverado. How can

642
00:33:04,120 --> 00:33:08,760
Speaker 1: I help? Sir? Hi Ron, longtime listener had a question

643
00:33:08,800 --> 00:33:11,800
Speaker 1: for you. Get a four team, sill A, while it's

644
00:33:11,800 --> 00:33:14,320
Speaker 1: a not a crew cabinet. Is a four door, it's

645
00:33:14,320 --> 00:33:17,440
Speaker 1: four wheel drive, and um, when it's fifty degrees and

646
00:33:17,600 --> 00:33:20,080
Speaker 1: warmer out if I take the current of the truck

647
00:33:20,120 --> 00:33:23,000
Speaker 1: on the inter State and I'm driving, say between sixty

648
00:33:23,040 --> 00:33:27,040
Speaker 1: to sixty five or higher in miles per hour. It vibrates.

649
00:33:27,600 --> 00:33:30,080
Speaker 1: Now it's not the steering wheel, it's not that doesn't

650
00:33:30,080 --> 00:33:32,760
Speaker 1: feel like it's the rear wheels um. But you can

651
00:33:32,800 --> 00:33:35,400
Speaker 1: definitely feel it in the cab itself that the entire

652
00:33:35,720 --> 00:33:40,920
Speaker 1: vehicle does shake only when it's warm fifty degrees that's correct?

653
00:33:41,280 --> 00:33:44,720
Speaker 1: Is it just there? I took the truck, I took

654
00:33:44,840 --> 00:33:47,120
Speaker 1: I took the truck to uh to a Hampshire trip

655
00:33:47,160 --> 00:33:49,760
Speaker 1: when it's super super cold out and took it for

656
00:33:49,760 --> 00:33:51,600
Speaker 1: a three hour ride up to New Hampshire. Wife and

657
00:33:51,640 --> 00:33:54,160
Speaker 1: I went on vacation. Didn't have any issues when it

658
00:33:54,240 --> 00:33:56,720
Speaker 1: was on the interstate, did not vibrate, did not have

659
00:33:56,760 --> 00:34:00,280
Speaker 1: any problems with it. My first react and as it

660
00:34:00,360 --> 00:34:03,960
Speaker 1: has to be tires well, so we went down that

661
00:34:04,040 --> 00:34:06,960
Speaker 1: path with the dealer and what happened was I want

662
00:34:07,000 --> 00:34:08,359
Speaker 1: the truck about a year and a half ago at

663
00:34:08,400 --> 00:34:11,239
Speaker 1: a at a local dealership, running back to the same

664
00:34:11,320 --> 00:34:14,120
Speaker 1: place we had the tires. High speed balance was one

665
00:34:14,840 --> 00:34:16,880
Speaker 1: and then it was still doing the same thing. We

666
00:34:16,960 --> 00:34:20,080
Speaker 1: took it back and they wrote force balanced the tires also,

667
00:34:21,600 --> 00:34:24,239
Speaker 1: so the same problem occurred. And then what I did

668
00:34:24,360 --> 00:34:26,600
Speaker 1: was I have a buddy who's got a four team Silverado,

669
00:34:27,040 --> 00:34:30,040
Speaker 1: who's got a crew cab full four doors. I took

670
00:34:30,080 --> 00:34:32,680
Speaker 1: the tires off of his truck put them on my truck.

671
00:34:33,520 --> 00:34:36,239
Speaker 1: He doesn't, and and there's no difference. Okay, So it's

672
00:34:36,239 --> 00:34:40,399
Speaker 1: not tires now. So at sixty five in cold weather,

673
00:34:40,440 --> 00:34:42,600
Speaker 1: if you're rolling along, you've got this vibration. If you

674
00:34:42,640 --> 00:34:46,120
Speaker 1: put it into neutral and coast, does the vibration change now,

675
00:34:46,280 --> 00:34:48,960
Speaker 1: It's still stays. And also what I've done too is, uh,

676
00:34:49,000 --> 00:34:50,920
Speaker 1: it's got a pill option on the vehicle as well.

677
00:34:51,239 --> 00:34:53,759
Speaker 1: And when I switched it over to Coe, it still

678
00:34:53,840 --> 00:34:55,960
Speaker 1: does the same thing. And the other part, the other

679
00:34:56,040 --> 00:34:58,360
Speaker 1: thing I do is it's got a mean option for

680
00:34:58,400 --> 00:35:01,600
Speaker 1: the transmission and I you sit in annually and does

681
00:35:01,640 --> 00:35:03,319
Speaker 1: the same things. All right, Mike, you sit tight. I'm

682
00:35:03,320 --> 00:35:05,359
Speaker 1: gonna take this call off air until we get past

683
00:35:05,400 --> 00:35:06,840
Speaker 1: the news. At the top of the hour, I'm running

684
00:35:06,840 --> 00:35:09,880
Speaker 1: any in the car doctor, reminding you good mechanics aren't expensive,

685
00:35:10,040 --> 00:35:11,239
Speaker 1: they're priceless. See you
