00:02:06,240 --> 00:02:09,040
Speaker 1: great to be We were at a local affiliate, um,

34
00:02:09,080 --> 00:02:11,760
Speaker 1: you know, a local independent station Christmas party, and it

35
00:02:11,840 --> 00:02:14,200
Speaker 1: was just you know, I've got to tell you that's

36
00:02:14,240 --> 00:02:16,160

37
00:02:16,160 --> 00:02:19,640
Speaker 1: shoes of you know, car doctor in here for a second. Um,

38
00:02:19,720 --> 00:02:23,760
Speaker 1: it's it's the one thing I miss about independent broadcasting. Right.

39
00:02:23,760 --> 00:02:25,680
Speaker 1: We've been doing this six going on seven years now,

40
00:02:25,720 --> 00:02:29,000
Speaker 1: whatever it is you know that that that local feel.

41
00:02:29,440 --> 00:02:33,720
Speaker 1: But what really amazed me was the number of people

42
00:02:33,720 --> 00:02:37,040
Speaker 1: in the room that listened to the show, that came

43
00:02:37,120 --> 00:02:39,839
Speaker 1: up and talked to us afterwards, and you know, gave

44
00:02:39,919 --> 00:02:41,960
Speaker 1: us the you know, I understand you got booed in

45
00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:45,960
Speaker 1: the audience. Um, who's that by some by some guy

46
00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:49,640
Speaker 1: that showed up in a car doctor shirt. I thought

47
00:02:49,680 --> 00:02:52,200
Speaker 1: that was great. You were talking and I'm going boo

48
00:02:52,320 --> 00:02:54,000
Speaker 1: and you can't see me because it's dark on the

49
00:02:54,000 --> 00:02:55,519
Speaker 1: other side of the I thought it was the owner

50
00:02:55,520 --> 00:02:56,919
Speaker 1: of the station. I said, you know, I know, sure,

51
00:02:56,960 --> 00:02:59,400
Speaker 1: you're transmarts and you started yelling at him, So I thought,

52
00:02:59,440 --> 00:03:01,200
Speaker 1: I thought that was a good time. Hey, let's get

53
00:03:01,240 --> 00:03:02,760
Speaker 1: over to the phones. Enough of that. Let's go and

54
00:03:02,800 --> 00:03:05,800
Speaker 1: talk to Paul Minnesota, our Ford master tech guy up

00:03:05,800 --> 00:03:08,359
Speaker 1: there in northern Minnesota. Paul, Welcome back, sir. What's going

00:03:21,400 --> 00:03:25,360
Speaker 1: up here all the uh yeah, prep and non prep

60
00:03:25,480 --> 00:03:30,120
Speaker 1: for the escape is some up going in California. Anyway.

61
00:03:30,160 --> 00:03:33,440
Speaker 1: It's interesting up here because I'm I'm I can look

62
00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:36,640
Speaker 1: at Canada at my front window. So how cold we

63
00:03:36,640 --> 00:03:41,080
Speaker 1: are already? We've already we already hit minus six wow,

64
00:03:41,120 --> 00:03:48,520
Speaker 1: but uh minus thirty to forty. That happens and batteries.

65
00:03:49,160 --> 00:03:53,360
Speaker 1: I have many customers. I now retired out of the

66
00:03:53,400 --> 00:03:55,640
Speaker 1: Ford shop and working at a part time at an

67
00:03:55,680 --> 00:04:00,000
Speaker 1: auto parts store here. We have many customers their batteries

68
00:04:00,080 --> 00:04:03,360
Speaker 1: or three years old. We test them, Oh they're good, No,

69
00:04:03,480 --> 00:04:07,440
Speaker 1: I want new. They're convinced that, I mean, that's it.

70
00:04:07,880 --> 00:04:10,119
Speaker 1: Three years old. I'm done, give me no once. Yeah,

71
00:04:10,120 --> 00:04:13,560
Speaker 1: but they're still got Nope. Now are you do you

72
00:04:13,600 --> 00:04:16,479
Speaker 1: think that's wrong? Paul? I mean, is it? Is it

73
00:04:16,600 --> 00:04:18,560
Speaker 1: just that the cold is you know, when you're living

74
00:04:18,560 --> 00:04:20,760
Speaker 1: in that cold of an environment on a constant basis,

75
00:04:21,680 --> 00:04:23,920
Speaker 1: Is that I mean, that's more a case of their

76
00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:26,320
Speaker 1: likely to get up one January morning and you know

77
00:04:26,320 --> 00:04:29,040
Speaker 1: what tested good today, wasn't good yet? Was isn't good tomorrow?

78
00:04:29,080 --> 00:04:33,159
Speaker 1: And it's a problem. Right, Oh exactly, I mean, Okay,

79
00:04:33,160 --> 00:04:38,520
Speaker 1: we're majority of our customers up here. The one town

80
00:04:38,680 --> 00:04:42,400
Speaker 1: we're well I'm next to, that's your only source for

81
00:04:42,480 --> 00:04:46,800
Speaker 1: products and goods. We have people come seventy five miles

82
00:04:47,520 --> 00:04:51,880
Speaker 1: to get parts, to get advice, to get repairs. So

83
00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:53,920
Speaker 1: if you're seventy five miles out, you've got to get

84
00:04:53,960 --> 00:04:56,320
Speaker 1: to the grocery. You gotta get to the hospital here.

85
00:04:57,360 --> 00:05:02,679
Speaker 1: You you depend on your vehicle starting. They're not taking

86
00:05:02,680 --> 00:05:05,440
Speaker 1: the chance they will spend the money, you know. Let

87
00:05:05,440 --> 00:05:07,359
Speaker 1: me ask you a question, Paul, So you were you

88
00:05:07,400 --> 00:05:11,560
Speaker 1: were a master teke at a Ford dealer. How many years? Uh?

89
00:05:11,560 --> 00:05:14,760
Speaker 1: Since two thousand and one? Okay? How many cars a

90
00:05:14,800 --> 00:05:19,479
Speaker 1: month does that dealership sell? You think, very small dealership?

91
00:05:19,600 --> 00:05:23,400
Speaker 1: If we did fifteen a month, so that was a

92
00:05:23,440 --> 00:05:28,120
Speaker 1: big deal. We don't very small dealership, you know. So

93
00:05:28,560 --> 00:05:31,039
Speaker 1: think of the burden. And I've always I've always wondered

94
00:05:31,040 --> 00:05:33,400
Speaker 1: this and pondered it. So think of the burden on

95
00:05:33,560 --> 00:05:37,360
Speaker 1: that dealership. They're selling fifteen cars a month, all right?

96
00:05:37,680 --> 00:05:39,360
Speaker 1: And how and how big was the shop? How many

97
00:05:39,400 --> 00:05:43,640
Speaker 1: texts were in the shop to three for four all right?

98
00:05:43,720 --> 00:05:46,680
Speaker 1: So it's a fifteen car a month four man's shop.

99
00:05:47,400 --> 00:05:49,919
Speaker 1: And you know you've still got to buy all the

100
00:05:49,960 --> 00:05:53,839
Speaker 1: diagnostic tools that Ford requires you to buy, right, correct?

101
00:05:54,560 --> 00:05:56,800
Speaker 1: How do you have? That was a heavy burden? I mean,

102
00:05:57,400 --> 00:06:00,360
Speaker 1: how do you make any money? We had the ES

103
00:06:00,480 --> 00:06:04,040
Speaker 1: update that was like, how do you make any money

104
00:06:04,080 --> 00:06:07,640
Speaker 1: doing that? Yeah? It doesn't it doesn't make sense. Yeah,

105
00:06:07,800 --> 00:06:11,920
Speaker 1: And I was trying to convince him, I said, basic diagnostics.

106
00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:15,480
Speaker 1: I mean here, get a flat fee you know for okay,

107
00:06:15,560 --> 00:06:17,480
Speaker 1: they just want to scan it for codes or something.

108
00:06:17,680 --> 00:06:23,480
Speaker 1: Make a flat fee, you know. And I'm originally from Chicago,

109
00:06:23,560 --> 00:06:25,440
Speaker 1: so I know this stuff, you know. And he he

110
00:06:25,560 --> 00:06:28,279
Speaker 1: had a hard time figuring this out. But anyhow, that's

111
00:06:28,320 --> 00:06:31,520
Speaker 1: the thing though, you know, our bigger business was in

112
00:06:31,640 --> 00:06:35,279
Speaker 1: the back, in the in the shop. That's that's where

113
00:06:35,320 --> 00:06:37,800
Speaker 1: all the money was coming. People were more likely to

114
00:06:37,839 --> 00:06:42,840
Speaker 1: fix something than buying new, yeah, exactly, and to at

115
00:06:42,880 --> 00:06:45,640
Speaker 1: certain times of the year too, you know, Okay, we

116
00:06:45,720 --> 00:06:50,120
Speaker 1: got tax time and the holidays and stuff. Another typical

117
00:06:50,200 --> 00:06:53,479
Speaker 1: thing up here is they don't fix it till it's broke,

118
00:06:53,720 --> 00:06:57,760
Speaker 1: you know. And and and that press another mentality you

119
00:06:57,800 --> 00:07:00,400
Speaker 1: have to deal with. But that too, and why block

120
00:07:00,440 --> 00:07:03,719
Speaker 1: heaters are super big up there, even battery heaters. We

121
00:07:03,760 --> 00:07:07,520
Speaker 1: have these little bad electric battery blankets and stuff like that.

122
00:07:07,560 --> 00:07:10,720
Speaker 1: Because we have people up here, considering the cold, I'm

123
00:07:10,760 --> 00:07:14,640
Speaker 1: surprised how many don't have even just a basic garage.

124
00:07:15,320 --> 00:07:19,320
Speaker 1: It's out, your car is outside. You know, how many

125
00:07:19,600 --> 00:07:22,640
Speaker 1: wind comes out of the Northwest, And and Ben, you've

126
00:07:22,720 --> 00:07:26,200
Speaker 1: got it, uh you know, do you do you think

127
00:07:27,040 --> 00:07:29,800
Speaker 1: um that people are getting smarter up there that they're

128
00:07:29,840 --> 00:07:31,760
Speaker 1: trying to be more prepared, like or is it? Is

129
00:07:31,760 --> 00:07:34,520
Speaker 1: it clearly a dividing line. There's there's those that get

130
00:07:34,520 --> 00:07:36,200
Speaker 1: it and those that don't, and then the ones that

131
00:07:36,240 --> 00:07:39,480
Speaker 1: don't are the ones that are stuck. Yeah, pretty much

132
00:07:39,520 --> 00:07:42,040
Speaker 1: that And it's interesting the ones that do. It's like

133
00:07:42,480 --> 00:07:44,560
Speaker 1: three years. I want new batteries. I don't care they

134
00:07:44,560 --> 00:07:48,080
Speaker 1: test good, I don't care. They want synthetic oil, they

135
00:07:48,120 --> 00:07:51,280
Speaker 1: want every advantage is give me a battery heater, give

136
00:07:51,320 --> 00:07:53,800
Speaker 1: me a block is a block heater work? And can

137
00:07:53,840 --> 00:07:55,640
Speaker 1: you test my block heater? Shore? You know, all this

138
00:07:55,800 --> 00:07:58,120
Speaker 1: that and the other thing, and they're you know, even

139
00:07:58,160 --> 00:08:01,320
Speaker 1: in November, they're like up on it. But then you've

140
00:08:01,320 --> 00:08:04,160
Speaker 1: got the other thirty percent that are like they're waiting

141
00:08:04,200 --> 00:08:06,560
Speaker 1: for it to break. And then it's like, oh help me,

142
00:08:06,680 --> 00:08:08,920
Speaker 1: oh help me. You know, what do you what do

143
00:08:08,960 --> 00:08:11,720
Speaker 1: you think, Paul as as as A as a twenty

144
00:08:11,800 --> 00:08:15,680
Speaker 1: year plus master Teken Afford Dealership and so forth, what

145
00:08:15,760 --> 00:08:17,520
Speaker 1: do you think if you could, if you could talk

146
00:08:17,600 --> 00:08:20,640
Speaker 1: to your kids, or talk to your nieces, nephews, et cetera,

147
00:08:20,760 --> 00:08:23,720
Speaker 1: or just young people today and just give them a

148
00:08:23,760 --> 00:08:26,280
Speaker 1: two minute education about taking care of a car. What

149
00:08:26,320 --> 00:08:28,080
Speaker 1: are the highlights, what are the important things they've got

150
00:08:28,080 --> 00:08:35,080
Speaker 1: to keep in mind? Maintenance, maintenance, quality products, quality filters,

151
00:08:35,480 --> 00:08:39,120
Speaker 1: especially if you've got a diesel. Uh took quality fuel.

152
00:08:39,720 --> 00:08:41,760
Speaker 1: Fortunately we got out of that problem a number of

153
00:08:41,840 --> 00:08:44,520
Speaker 1: years ago. We had a lot of serious fuel quality

154
00:08:44,559 --> 00:08:49,199
Speaker 1: issues up here. That's gone, thank god. And uh, but yeah,

155
00:08:49,320 --> 00:08:51,559
Speaker 1: just educate them there. They're just going, oh, go anywhere.

156
00:08:51,600 --> 00:08:53,760
Speaker 1: What's cheap? Okay, fine, phil it up, you know, or whatever,

157
00:08:53,840 --> 00:08:58,040
Speaker 1: you know, But pay attention, pay attention by quality, parts,

158
00:08:58,120 --> 00:09:01,160
Speaker 1: by quality everything. Don't buy just because it's cheap. I

159
00:09:01,160 --> 00:09:03,160
Speaker 1: bought it, you know. I was. I was at a

160
00:09:03,200 --> 00:09:06,840
Speaker 1: doctor's office yesterday, real quick story, and we had to

161
00:09:06,840 --> 00:09:08,600
Speaker 1: close the shop yesterday. We had some things going on.

162
00:09:09,040 --> 00:09:10,880
Speaker 1: And I was in a doctor's office yesterday. I'm in

163
00:09:10,920 --> 00:09:15,560
Speaker 1: the waiting room and they had a TV. And, UM,

164
00:09:15,720 --> 00:09:17,520
Speaker 1: you ever watch what's on television in the middle of

165
00:09:17,520 --> 00:09:20,760
Speaker 1: the day in America? Um, I watched an hour of

166
00:09:20,840 --> 00:09:24,360
Speaker 1: Let's Make a Deal and the Price is Right and

167
00:09:24,440 --> 00:09:27,560
Speaker 1: all the young kids, all the millennials, are sitting there.

168
00:09:27,559 --> 00:09:29,480
Speaker 1: I'm not picking on the millennials, but it just happened

169
00:09:29,520 --> 00:09:31,480
Speaker 1: to be that the office was filled with you. While

170
00:09:31,520 --> 00:09:33,920
Speaker 1: I consider youngsters, they're in their twenties and the early thirties,

171
00:09:34,400 --> 00:09:36,679
Speaker 1: and they're all you know, it's you can see it's

172
00:09:36,720 --> 00:09:39,839
Speaker 1: getting pounded into their head. They're all excited, like you know,

173
00:09:39,840 --> 00:09:41,320
Speaker 1: they're gonna go on, let's make a deal and win

174
00:09:41,400 --> 00:09:42,880
Speaker 1: a car, and they're gonna go on the prices right

175
00:09:42,880 --> 00:09:45,280
Speaker 1: and win a trip to Hawaii. It's not about working

176
00:09:45,320 --> 00:09:46,840
Speaker 1: for a living. It's about what can they get for

177
00:09:46,920 --> 00:09:48,559
Speaker 1: free by being on a game show. That's all we

178
00:09:48,640 --> 00:09:51,800
Speaker 1: were talking about. And it made me stop to think

179
00:09:51,800 --> 00:09:54,200
Speaker 1: how I compare that to automobiles and the illusion of

180
00:09:54,240 --> 00:09:57,280
Speaker 1: it all that we're you know, some of this is

181
00:09:58,360 --> 00:10:04,319
Speaker 1: people don't realize that danger of being unprepared until you're unprepared,

182
00:10:05,120 --> 00:10:08,960
Speaker 1: all right and right, and when it's too late, or

183
00:10:08,960 --> 00:10:10,880
Speaker 1: when it's almost too late. You know, we just had

184
00:10:10,920 --> 00:10:15,320
Speaker 1: Pearl Harbor Day, right they have informy December seven. How

185
00:10:15,400 --> 00:10:17,040
Speaker 1: much of that did we talk about in the news,

186
00:10:17,440 --> 00:10:19,960
Speaker 1: Not to get political, but you know what we didn't

187
00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:22,800
Speaker 1: talk about that. I didn't hear anybody really discussing it. It

188
00:10:22,679 --> 00:10:25,040
Speaker 1: It was the seventy seventh anniversary of Pearl Harbor and

189
00:10:25,040 --> 00:10:27,800
Speaker 1: it really didn't come up. And you know, that's like

190
00:10:27,800 --> 00:10:30,320
Speaker 1: a classic example of not being prepared. And we could

191
00:10:30,320 --> 00:10:31,760
Speaker 1: have the argument about the who and the wine. That's

192
00:10:31,800 --> 00:10:34,240
Speaker 1: not what I'm trying to say. It all comes back

193
00:10:34,240 --> 00:10:36,760
Speaker 1: to cars, too, because if you're not prepared for your car,

194
00:10:36,800 --> 00:10:38,520
Speaker 1: if you're not prepared for the other guy to punch

195
00:10:38,559 --> 00:10:40,200
Speaker 1: you in the nose, if you're not ready for it

196
00:10:40,200 --> 00:10:43,880
Speaker 1: when it happens, it's an issue. And I'm not saying

197
00:10:43,920 --> 00:10:46,320
Speaker 1: to live chicken a little under your bed somewhere quivering,

198
00:10:46,360 --> 00:10:48,600
Speaker 1: but you've got to be ready for the problem before

199
00:10:48,640 --> 00:10:51,280
Speaker 1: it becomes a problem. We had a we had an

200
00:10:51,280 --> 00:10:53,240
Speaker 1: outage here in Jersey a couple of years back. We

201
00:10:53,280 --> 00:10:56,520
Speaker 1: had a snowstorm and and and electrical went down and

202
00:10:56,559 --> 00:11:00,200
Speaker 1: everything went down. And I've told this story, but you know,

203
00:11:00,360 --> 00:11:02,720
Speaker 1: I showed up at the hardware store to buy firewood

204
00:11:02,760 --> 00:11:05,280
Speaker 1: with cash. People couldn't get cash out of the A

205
00:11:05,360 --> 00:11:08,319
Speaker 1: t M. People couldn't get gas, people couldn't get and

206
00:11:08,360 --> 00:11:10,480
Speaker 1: they're trying to use their credit cards to buy firewood,

207
00:11:10,480 --> 00:11:12,320
Speaker 1: and they don't understand where the credit card terminal is

208
00:11:12,360 --> 00:11:15,000
Speaker 1: down because there's no electricity, which is why they're there

209
00:11:15,040 --> 00:11:16,760
Speaker 1: in the first place. To buy firewood for heat because

210
00:11:16,800 --> 00:11:20,080
Speaker 1: the heaters won't work. You know, it's it's listen. We

211
00:11:20,080 --> 00:11:22,000
Speaker 1: could go on and on and on, Paul. It's always

212
00:11:22,000 --> 00:11:24,720
Speaker 1: a pleasure to talk to you, sir, it really is. Um.

213
00:11:25,200 --> 00:11:27,480
Speaker 1: I hope you enjoy retirement, and I hope you stay

00:11:27,480 --> 00:11:30,040
Speaker 1: in touch with us, and uh, keep keep listening and

Speaker 1: keep calling and a deal for for sure deal. He

216
00:11:35,240 --> 00:11:37,040
Speaker 1: had an issue a couple of weeks ago. We won't

217
00:11:37,080 --> 00:11:39,200
Speaker 1: go into now because I know you're pressed on a

218
00:11:39,240 --> 00:11:41,839
Speaker 1: four leader forwards and I got them down. But I

219
00:11:42,200 --> 00:11:46,360
Speaker 1: had the answer for that guy's issue. But anyway, next time, yeah,

Speaker 1: five zero nine zero zero for when you really need

226
00:12:15,320 --> 00:12:18,560
Speaker 1: advice on your car. Here's rocking. Hey, let's get it

227
00:12:18,600 --> 00:12:20,679
Speaker 1: over and talk to Robert and main Robert. Welcome to

228
00:12:20,720 --> 00:12:22,880
Speaker 1: the car Doctor, sir. How can I help? How are

229
00:12:22,880 --> 00:12:26,560
Speaker 1: you doing? Man? Good man? Um, I've got to shove

230
00:12:26,600 --> 00:12:32,439
Speaker 1: them power. Uh oh seven all right, there's two things

231
00:12:32,480 --> 00:12:34,400
Speaker 1: happening with this car, and I don't know if one

232
00:12:34,440 --> 00:12:37,240
Speaker 1: of them can affects the other or not. It don't

233
00:12:37,280 --> 00:12:39,840
Speaker 1: seem as though to me. But when you fill this

234
00:12:39,920 --> 00:12:42,280
Speaker 1: thing up with gas and you go to start it,

235
00:12:42,360 --> 00:12:44,680
Speaker 1: you know how when you turn the ignition on, it

236
00:12:44,760 --> 00:12:47,400
Speaker 1: stays engaged until the car starts automatically, even if you

237
00:12:47,440 --> 00:12:51,480
Speaker 1: let go of key. Um. When you fill this thing

238
00:12:51,559 --> 00:12:53,839
Speaker 1: up with gas and you go to start it, the

239
00:12:53,920 --> 00:12:57,280
Speaker 1: starter stays engaged, like and it whirls over world's over,

240
00:12:57,320 --> 00:13:00,559
Speaker 1: world's over, world's over before it'll start. It'll does that

241
00:13:01,840 --> 00:13:03,560
Speaker 1: when you fill it up with gas. After you run

242
00:13:03,559 --> 00:13:05,040
Speaker 1: it for a while, it don't do it. Maybe the

243
00:13:05,080 --> 00:13:07,440
Speaker 1: next time that the gas hasn't going down a little,

244
00:13:07,440 --> 00:13:10,200
Speaker 1: it'll do it again, but usually not only when you

245
00:13:10,240 --> 00:13:13,360
Speaker 1: first fill it up. Now, the other thing what I

246
00:13:13,400 --> 00:13:14,839
Speaker 1: called you about, and I don't know if I want

247
00:13:14,840 --> 00:13:16,679
Speaker 1: to text together. That's why I was telling you felt bad.

248
00:13:17,120 --> 00:13:21,440
Speaker 1: But what what the issue is the transmission the tack

249
00:13:22,040 --> 00:13:23,719
Speaker 1: when you go when you gon't take off. When it

250
00:13:23,720 --> 00:13:26,360
Speaker 1: started up and you take off, it was working just fine,

251
00:13:26,920 --> 00:13:28,559
Speaker 1: be driving down the road, and like when you get

252
00:13:28,559 --> 00:13:30,120
Speaker 1: on the highway to start to give it some gas,

253
00:13:30,920 --> 00:13:33,200
Speaker 1: the tack will bob up and down and it'll drop

254
00:13:33,240 --> 00:13:36,040
Speaker 1: down to zero, and the car kind of spits and

255
00:13:36,080 --> 00:13:38,120
Speaker 1: sputters a little bit. You don't like if you're stepping

256
00:13:38,120 --> 00:13:39,319
Speaker 1: them on the gas and it's like you're sticking me,

257
00:13:39,360 --> 00:13:43,880
Speaker 1: putting the carburetor or whatever, like a flat yeah, and

258
00:13:43,960 --> 00:13:45,760
Speaker 1: you you go to give it the gas, and it

259
00:13:45,800 --> 00:13:47,520
Speaker 1: it'll jerk and ship me and not and it'll come

260
00:13:47,559 --> 00:13:50,560
Speaker 1: out of it and then it'll take off and it runs.

261
00:13:50,600 --> 00:13:54,280
Speaker 1: But it don't have like the power that it's supposed

262
00:13:54,320 --> 00:13:55,880
Speaker 1: to have when you step on the gas, you know

263
00:13:55,920 --> 00:13:59,520
Speaker 1: what I mean, until you until you saw off again,

264
00:13:59,800 --> 00:14:03,400
Speaker 1: you know. But if I stopped the store and I

265
00:14:03,440 --> 00:14:05,320
Speaker 1: come out and I get in the car and started up,

266
00:14:05,800 --> 00:14:07,640
Speaker 1: the attack goes up. Words belong, and the thing will

267
00:14:07,679 --> 00:14:10,000
Speaker 1: drive normal for the rest of the day. It seems

268
00:14:10,040 --> 00:14:12,719
Speaker 1: like it only happens when you first take off with it.

269
00:14:13,280 --> 00:14:15,760
Speaker 1: And I also believe I can't be sure, but I

270
00:14:15,840 --> 00:14:19,640
Speaker 1: believe that it's a chevallet issue because the garage that

271
00:14:19,680 --> 00:14:21,440
Speaker 1: I took it to, the guy says he's got a

272
00:14:21,960 --> 00:14:24,680
Speaker 1: coal bolt that's doing the exact same thing, and he

273
00:14:24,720 --> 00:14:30,880
Speaker 1: can't figure that out. Okay, so you know, diagnosing is

274
00:14:30,920 --> 00:14:36,320
Speaker 1: black magic sometimes, all right, it's it's it's understanding sometimes

275
00:14:36,400 --> 00:14:39,240
Speaker 1: what's good so that you can narrow down what's bad.

276
00:14:40,800 --> 00:14:42,960
Speaker 1: And I'm gonna ask this, and I'm I'm guessing the

277
00:14:42,960 --> 00:14:44,920
Speaker 1: answer is gonna be no. But there's no check engine

278
00:14:45,000 --> 00:14:49,400
Speaker 1: light on correct? Yeah, there is, there is, Okay, and

279
00:14:49,440 --> 00:14:53,360
Speaker 1: we've got what fault code. Um. He said that it

280
00:14:53,480 --> 00:14:57,520
Speaker 1: was read up that he changed a couple of sensors

281
00:14:57,520 --> 00:14:59,960
Speaker 1: in there. I can't remember exactly what they were, crank poss.

282
00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:05,520
Speaker 1: I know he didn't change that one. And I asked

283
00:15:05,640 --> 00:15:08,960
Speaker 1: him about that and he said he didn't. P zero

284
00:15:09,200 --> 00:15:16,080
Speaker 1: zero threety six. I'm not sure, um, or remember him

285
00:15:16,080 --> 00:15:20,840
Speaker 1: saying that that came up? Okay, all right, Um, well,

286
00:15:20,840 --> 00:15:24,160
Speaker 1: if that came up. Crank sensors are real common on these,

287
00:15:24,760 --> 00:15:28,160
Speaker 1: all right, UM. And sometimes it's not the sensor. What

288
00:15:28,240 --> 00:15:32,520
Speaker 1: happens is the mounting surface on the engine block gets

289
00:15:32,560 --> 00:15:36,680
Speaker 1: corroded and it it will actually rust under the sensor

290
00:15:36,800 --> 00:15:40,200
Speaker 1: and lift the sensor away from its trigger wheel, so

291
00:15:40,480 --> 00:15:45,280
Speaker 1: it produces a poor signal. So you know, sometimes it's

292
00:15:45,280 --> 00:15:47,520
Speaker 1: a matter of pulling the sensor out. You know, the

293
00:15:47,560 --> 00:15:50,520
Speaker 1: guys will will will change the sensor and not look

294
00:15:50,600 --> 00:15:53,480
Speaker 1: at the mounting support or the mounting pad that it

295
00:15:53,520 --> 00:15:55,640
Speaker 1: sits on, and they'll put a new sensor and that

296
00:15:55,640 --> 00:15:57,200
Speaker 1: doesn't fix it. Okay, that's not it. Let's go on

297
00:15:57,200 --> 00:16:00,080
Speaker 1: with the next thing. But they don't understand why I

298
00:16:00,200 --> 00:16:04,600
Speaker 1: the code sets P zero three thirty six has to

299
00:16:04,640 --> 00:16:09,280
Speaker 1: do with crank center performance. Um, what do you do

300
00:16:09,320 --> 00:16:11,720
Speaker 1: for what do you do for a living, Robert? I'm

301
00:16:11,720 --> 00:16:16,120
Speaker 1: a caregiver? Okay, Um, you have electrical test equipment in

302
00:16:16,120 --> 00:16:20,080
Speaker 1: that caregiving operation. Yeah, okay, So everything's got to have

303
00:16:20,120 --> 00:16:23,240
Speaker 1: an accurate signal and and and it's it's it's it's

304
00:16:23,240 --> 00:16:25,480
Speaker 1: got to feed so much oxygen per minute and that

305
00:16:25,560 --> 00:16:27,440
Speaker 1: kind of thing. Right, It's it's it's just got to

306
00:16:27,480 --> 00:16:30,320
Speaker 1: be dead nuts on is no other way to say it, right,

307
00:16:30,560 --> 00:16:33,280
Speaker 1: it's it's got to be accurate stuff. Same thing with

308
00:16:33,320 --> 00:16:36,640
Speaker 1: the car. So you know, let's attack and fix what

309
00:16:36,680 --> 00:16:39,200
Speaker 1: we know is bad. All right, Let's solve the check

310
00:16:39,240 --> 00:16:42,200
Speaker 1: engine light first, because what you just described to be

311
00:16:42,240 --> 00:16:45,080
Speaker 1: about the tack, the misfire, losing power on the road

312
00:16:45,560 --> 00:16:49,760
Speaker 1: and so forth, that's that's got crank center performance written

313
00:16:49,800 --> 00:16:53,520
Speaker 1: all over it. All right, So the question I've got

314
00:16:53,520 --> 00:16:55,280
Speaker 1: to You've got to go back and ask your mechanic

315
00:16:55,400 --> 00:16:57,560
Speaker 1: is does he have a lab scope? You know what

316
00:16:57,600 --> 00:17:01,640
Speaker 1: a lab scope is? Okay? Uh? You know the voltmeter is,

317
00:17:02,680 --> 00:17:05,080
Speaker 1: all right, a voultmeter. You hook up a voltmeter. You

318
00:17:05,080 --> 00:17:09,080
Speaker 1: know what a digital voltmeter is, all right? So you know,

319
00:17:09,080 --> 00:17:12,000
Speaker 1: you hook up a digital voltmeter. It displays the voltage

320
00:17:12,040 --> 00:17:14,840
Speaker 1: reading in a in a digital number. And it's a number.

321
00:17:14,840 --> 00:17:19,520
Speaker 1: I'll say twelve point five, fourteen point two. It's a display. Right.

322
00:17:19,760 --> 00:17:23,600
Speaker 1: A lab scope takes that voltage and spreads it out

323
00:17:23,640 --> 00:17:26,280
Speaker 1: over time and puts it on a television screen. So

324
00:17:26,400 --> 00:17:28,879
Speaker 1: you can watch the voltage rise, you can watch the

325
00:17:28,960 --> 00:17:33,320
Speaker 1: voltage fall, you can watch the actual voltage signal. All right.

326
00:17:34,320 --> 00:17:36,760
Speaker 1: So what a lab scope will show is it will

327
00:17:36,800 --> 00:17:39,760
Speaker 1: show the size of the voltage rise. It will show

328
00:17:39,800 --> 00:17:41,960
Speaker 1: the size of the vaulted shrink or what we call

329
00:17:42,040 --> 00:17:45,480
Speaker 1: amplitude size of the signal. Alright, big college, where you get?

330
00:17:45,520 --> 00:17:47,640
Speaker 1: You get a nickel every time you say that? All right,

331
00:17:48,040 --> 00:17:50,960
Speaker 1: But but but the idea becomes that you can actually

332
00:17:51,000 --> 00:17:54,560
Speaker 1: watch the performance of the sensor and whether it's good, bad,

333
00:17:54,640 --> 00:17:59,240
Speaker 1: or in different Okay, um, uh, so just be mindful

334
00:17:59,280 --> 00:18:02,199
Speaker 1: of that he's got a lab scope. Let's go and

335
00:18:02,359 --> 00:18:04,800
Speaker 1: let's hook up to that sensor and let's go for

336
00:18:04,840 --> 00:18:08,320
Speaker 1: a ride. Let's let's record what's there. Let's go and

337
00:18:08,359 --> 00:18:11,120
Speaker 1: compare that. My gosh, there's so many resources out there

338
00:18:11,480 --> 00:18:15,240
Speaker 1: for for waveforms and scope signals. Uh, depending upon what

339
00:18:15,359 --> 00:18:17,240
Speaker 1: tool he's got. If it's a snap on, it's built

340
00:18:17,320 --> 00:18:20,160
Speaker 1: right into the tool. Let's compare that. But let's also

341
00:18:20,200 --> 00:18:22,800
Speaker 1: look at the mounting surface of the sensor and let's

342
00:18:22,800 --> 00:18:25,800
Speaker 1: see what that does for us. After that, call me

343
00:18:25,840 --> 00:18:27,480
Speaker 1: back and we can talk. Because I got a long

344
00:18:27,480 --> 00:18:29,400
Speaker 1: list of what could be wrong with that car. Let's

345
00:18:29,440 --> 00:18:31,440
Speaker 1: go for the obvious first. Let's fix the P zero

346
00:18:31,560 --> 00:18:34,040
Speaker 1: three thirty six before we look further down the road.

347
00:18:34,119 --> 00:18:35,920
Speaker 1: I'm on any in the Car Doctor. I'll be back

348
00:18:36,040 --> 00:18:58,600
Speaker 1: right after this. Hey, welcome back on any of the

349
00:18:58,640 --> 00:19:02,679
Speaker 1: car Doctor here at six zero zero zero, the Car

350
00:19:02,720 --> 00:19:06,280
Speaker 1: Doctor seven phone number. I wrote myself a note here midweek.

351
00:19:06,320 --> 00:19:07,879
Speaker 1: You know, I come into the studio midweek and I

352
00:19:07,880 --> 00:19:11,040
Speaker 1: write myself notes. I wonder what I was thinking about here,

353
00:19:11,160 --> 00:19:13,520
Speaker 1: the illusion of auto repair. Here's what I wrote. This

354
00:19:13,560 --> 00:19:16,600
Speaker 1: was probably Wednesday. It's dated Wednesday. Illusion of auto repair.

355
00:19:16,680 --> 00:19:19,000
Speaker 1: Talk about what makes us comfortable to spend money on

356
00:19:19,040 --> 00:19:22,120
Speaker 1: a car? M I gotta think about that for a minute.

357
00:19:22,200 --> 00:19:23,960
Speaker 1: Let's yes, Mr y, I don't know. But if you're

358
00:19:24,000 --> 00:19:27,400
Speaker 1: writing notes like that, you need to know that stuff

359
00:19:27,480 --> 00:19:30,639
Speaker 1: is not really legal in New Jersey. Yet what writing notes?

360
00:19:30,800 --> 00:19:34,080
Speaker 1: No whatever get you to write the note? Uh? What? Well?

361
00:19:34,640 --> 00:19:36,280
Speaker 1: But you know what is what? What is it? And

362
00:19:36,320 --> 00:19:40,040
Speaker 1: I think what I was thinking about is, you know,

363
00:19:40,320 --> 00:19:44,040
Speaker 1: human beings are funny, right, it's it's we're not perfect.

364
00:19:44,080 --> 00:19:46,479
Speaker 1: We're you know, not even me, alright, believe it or not.

365
00:19:46,520 --> 00:19:49,640
Speaker 1: I think I just heard the earth spin off for yourself. Um, well, okay,

366
00:19:49,640 --> 00:19:53,000
Speaker 1: you want admit that I'm perfect? Ahead, tom So, you know,

367
00:19:53,760 --> 00:19:56,320
Speaker 1: but there is an illusion of auto repair. There's a

368
00:19:56,400 --> 00:20:02,439
Speaker 1: mindset that that people with will they won't spend fifty

369
00:20:02,480 --> 00:20:05,399
Speaker 1: dollars to fix fift is probably not a right number.

370
00:20:05,400 --> 00:20:08,240
Speaker 1: They won't put five into a car that's a good

371
00:20:08,320 --> 00:20:11,120
Speaker 1: running vehicle, that's you know, worth three grand, but they'll

372
00:20:11,160 --> 00:20:14,080
Speaker 1: go out and spend forty on a replacement. And and

373
00:20:14,160 --> 00:20:16,240
Speaker 1: that's the illusion of it. And it makes no sense

374
00:20:16,280 --> 00:20:19,840
Speaker 1: to me. You know, there's no free lunch, all right,

375
00:20:20,600 --> 00:20:24,320
Speaker 1: And we'll sit there and look at it. And say,

376
00:20:24,320 --> 00:20:26,359
Speaker 1: oh my gosh, this was a bad year. I had

377
00:20:26,400 --> 00:20:28,800
Speaker 1: to put I had to put a transmission in the car.

378
00:20:28,880 --> 00:20:30,240
Speaker 1: I had to put brakes on the car. I had

379
00:20:30,280 --> 00:20:31,920
Speaker 1: to put tires on the car. Its eight years old.

380
00:20:31,920 --> 00:20:34,240
Speaker 1: It's an old car. I should replace it. But if

381
00:20:34,240 --> 00:20:37,360
Speaker 1: they look previously, they haven't done anything to the car.

382
00:20:37,440 --> 00:20:39,480
Speaker 1: But oil changes twice a year and a couple of

383
00:20:39,520 --> 00:20:42,000
Speaker 1: tire rotations, and all of a sudden, you know, So

384
00:20:42,080 --> 00:20:46,240
Speaker 1: it's like, you know, you're married, You're married twelve years,

385
00:20:46,960 --> 00:20:49,560
Speaker 1: all of a sudden, your partner has a problem. Maybe

386
00:20:49,560 --> 00:20:52,240
Speaker 1: it's you know, maybe it's maybe it's something bad. Maybe

387
00:20:52,240 --> 00:20:55,600
Speaker 1: it's alcohol, maybe it's narcotics. Maybe it's they've got a vice.

388
00:20:55,640 --> 00:20:56,960
Speaker 1: Maybe there maybe they like to work out in the

389
00:20:57,000 --> 00:20:59,320
Speaker 1: garage on their hot rod at night or something. Right

390
00:20:59,800 --> 00:21:02,399
Speaker 1: the at mean we're going to replace them? Um or

391
00:21:02,400 --> 00:21:04,479
Speaker 1: are we gonna figure it out? You don't solve the problem.

392
00:21:04,520 --> 00:21:08,480
Speaker 1: And the same things about the car nowadays, Well, because

393
00:21:08,520 --> 00:21:10,119
Speaker 1: we always we tend to take the easy way out.

394
00:21:10,119 --> 00:21:12,240
Speaker 1: And I think that's what I was talking about. But

395
00:21:12,480 --> 00:21:15,679
Speaker 1: what I notice is, I think a lot of what

396
00:21:15,760 --> 00:21:18,280
Speaker 1: makes people spend money on a car is how comfortable

397
00:21:18,280 --> 00:21:22,240
Speaker 1: they are with the mechanic. They want that. I think

398
00:21:22,320 --> 00:21:24,919
Speaker 1: some people who some people want to be a number,

399
00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:27,440
Speaker 1: like you're at the deli at Bohak al right, you're

400
00:21:27,480 --> 00:21:30,480
Speaker 1: on the meat counter just processing things, and some people

401
00:21:30,600 --> 00:21:33,560
Speaker 1: want that high Mrs Smith, Hi, Mr Smith, you know,

402
00:21:33,640 --> 00:21:36,240
Speaker 1: are we gonna do the heater core on your Lincoln today?

403
00:21:36,280 --> 00:21:38,800
Speaker 1: Because we've been talking about it for three weeks. They

404
00:21:38,920 --> 00:21:41,399
Speaker 1: want that one on one connection. I do. That's what

405
00:21:41,480 --> 00:21:43,879
Speaker 1: makes me comfortable. Um, And I think that's what I

406
00:21:43,920 --> 00:21:45,200
Speaker 1: was trying to say in my not because it was

407
00:21:45,200 --> 00:21:46,399
Speaker 1: just And I'm gonna put that up there for a

408
00:21:46,440 --> 00:21:48,159
Speaker 1: little while and see if we come back to that,

409
00:21:48,200 --> 00:21:49,959
Speaker 1: because maybe that's something I gotta. But that's what I'm

410
00:21:49,960 --> 00:21:51,800
Speaker 1: starting to do. I'm start and write notes with all

411
00:21:51,840 --> 00:21:53,600
Speaker 1: these great ideas during the weekend. Then I forget them

412
00:21:53,640 --> 00:21:55,320
Speaker 1: by the time Saturday rolls around. You know, if you're

413
00:21:55,400 --> 00:21:57,080
Speaker 1: right enough and put them on the window here, I

414
00:21:57,080 --> 00:21:58,960
Speaker 1: don't have to look at you. Well that's true. You

415
00:21:59,040 --> 00:22:00,720
Speaker 1: know you can turn around and look at me either.

416
00:22:01,040 --> 00:22:02,720
Speaker 1: But sides, the back of your head has more hair.

417
00:22:02,960 --> 00:22:05,879
Speaker 1: Let's get over and talk to Tom online to North Carolina.

418
00:22:06,200 --> 00:22:08,960
Speaker 1: Oh three Mitsubishi and what's going on here, Tom, how

419
00:22:09,000 --> 00:22:11,560
Speaker 1: canna help you? Hey, yes, sir, I enjoy your show.

420
00:22:11,720 --> 00:22:15,520
Speaker 1: Thank you, you're a good man. Three and the heat

421
00:22:15,600 --> 00:22:18,640
Speaker 1: or corps started leaking on me, a smelling and freeze,

422
00:22:18,680 --> 00:22:21,639
Speaker 1: and I was just wondering. I had a couple of

423
00:22:21,640 --> 00:22:25,320
Speaker 1: prices quoted on it, and then around a thousand dollars,

424
00:22:25,320 --> 00:22:26,919
Speaker 1: and I don't know whether I want to spend that

425
00:22:27,000 --> 00:22:30,840
Speaker 1: kind of money on a perfect example. Here we go, Okay,

426
00:22:30,920 --> 00:22:34,439
Speaker 1: how many miles on the car? Tom? Ninety thousand miles?

427
00:22:34,680 --> 00:22:37,360
Speaker 1: And we bought it new. It's been a wonderful car.

428
00:22:37,480 --> 00:22:40,920
Speaker 1: We've really enjoyed it until this happened, right, And and

429
00:22:41,080 --> 00:22:44,200
Speaker 1: you know, here's here's the question. Okay, would you if

430
00:22:44,240 --> 00:22:47,480
Speaker 1: you put a heater record for a thousand bucks and

431
00:22:47,800 --> 00:22:50,040
Speaker 1: you know, six months from now the transmission fail? Did

432
00:22:50,080 --> 00:22:52,840
Speaker 1: you put it trans in it? Well? There you go.

433
00:22:53,280 --> 00:22:56,919
Speaker 1: You know, uh, I feel the same way if I

434
00:22:57,000 --> 00:22:59,280
Speaker 1: have to spend a thousand on a heater core, then

435
00:23:00,040 --> 00:23:04,240
Speaker 1: down the road something else goes bad. So I don't

436
00:23:04,240 --> 00:23:06,520
Speaker 1: know what. So then let's let's turn around and look

437
00:23:06,560 --> 00:23:09,840
Speaker 1: at it from the other perspective. Okay, um, what are

438
00:23:09,840 --> 00:23:13,480
Speaker 1: you gonna replace it with? Well, I was goodbyed thinking

439
00:23:13,480 --> 00:23:17,159
Speaker 1: about buying a new uh Hondai Sonata. I've been looking

440
00:23:17,160 --> 00:23:19,400
Speaker 1: at them. They've been giving me a good price on one.

441
00:23:19,440 --> 00:23:22,399
Speaker 1: I don't know what you think of that, but so

442
00:23:22,880 --> 00:23:25,720
Speaker 1: is it. Is it not to fix the Mitsubishi just

443
00:23:25,760 --> 00:23:29,040
Speaker 1: because it's old, or it's because Tom wants a new

444
00:23:29,080 --> 00:23:33,280
Speaker 1: car or a combination? Well, a little both. I think

445
00:23:33,359 --> 00:23:36,600
Speaker 1: I thinks a little both. We liked what our son lives.

446
00:23:37,080 --> 00:23:40,200
Speaker 1: We actually live in Virginia. We're down here visiness my son.

447
00:23:40,760 --> 00:23:43,480
Speaker 1: Actually we're keeping kids to the two boys for him

448
00:23:43,480 --> 00:23:47,920
Speaker 1: while they're gone. But we live in Shenando Valley of Virginia.

449
00:23:47,960 --> 00:23:53,120
Speaker 1: If you're familiar with that, are yeah w V as well.

450
00:23:53,160 --> 00:23:55,879
Speaker 1: I'll catch you on w S D A uh every

451
00:23:55,920 --> 00:24:03,760
Speaker 1: Sunday morning nine until twelve. Got you, yeah, um, thank

452
00:24:03,800 --> 00:24:06,000
Speaker 1: you sir. You know, the argument Tom could be made

453
00:24:06,080 --> 00:24:08,159
Speaker 1: that you know, the older car, and I didn't include

454
00:24:08,160 --> 00:24:10,480
Speaker 1: that in my my comments before, But the older car

455
00:24:11,000 --> 00:24:14,040
Speaker 1: presents a challenge if you're traveling. The older car presents

456
00:24:14,680 --> 00:24:18,399
Speaker 1: issues with parts availability and all. That's part of the

457
00:24:18,400 --> 00:24:22,720
Speaker 1: conversation too. So here's that classic example. Is this car

458
00:24:22,800 --> 00:24:27,280
Speaker 1: worth fixing? Well? You know the problem here is it's

459
00:24:27,320 --> 00:24:32,200
Speaker 1: fifteen years old, all right, and it's it's Mitsubishi. It's

460
00:24:32,200 --> 00:24:34,560
Speaker 1: not a Ford, it's not a GM, it's not it's

461
00:24:34,600 --> 00:24:37,199
Speaker 1: it's not a Toyota Rojanda where I think, you know,

462
00:24:37,280 --> 00:24:41,440
Speaker 1: parts availability has got better accessibility. I would say it's great,

463
00:24:41,440 --> 00:24:45,200
Speaker 1: but it's better. What would I do, um to put

464
00:24:45,200 --> 00:24:47,679
Speaker 1: a heater or core in this The interior has to

465
00:24:47,720 --> 00:24:50,440
Speaker 1: just about come out, the dashboard comes out, the the

466
00:24:50,480 --> 00:24:52,639
Speaker 1: A C refrigerants gotta be you know, the A C

467
00:24:52,760 --> 00:24:56,320
Speaker 1: system gotta be disconnected. This is this is open heart surgery,

468
00:24:56,840 --> 00:25:01,080
Speaker 1: all right, exactly exactly, that's what I'm yeah ring right

469
00:25:01,080 --> 00:25:03,680
Speaker 1: now that it's so, let me ask let me ask

470
00:25:03,680 --> 00:25:06,000
Speaker 1: this question. Who's your regular mechanic? Do you have a

471
00:25:06,040 --> 00:25:09,280
Speaker 1: regular mechanic for this car? Well, not really know. I

472
00:25:09,359 --> 00:25:11,439
Speaker 1: usually take it to the Missy dealer and you know

473
00:25:11,520 --> 00:25:15,760
Speaker 1: they change the oil for me. Uh, they do the

474
00:25:15,800 --> 00:25:19,399
Speaker 1: most of the service work. Um. Are they the ones

475
00:25:19,480 --> 00:25:22,639
Speaker 1: that quoted you a thousand bucks? They quoted me but

476
00:25:22,760 --> 00:25:25,680
Speaker 1: more than that? Yeah, I'm sure if I was the guest,

477
00:25:25,720 --> 00:25:28,160
Speaker 1: they probably quoted you between twelve and fifteen hundred dollar

478
00:25:28,800 --> 00:25:35,200
Speaker 1: close to okay, Um, I'll tell you what I would

479
00:25:35,240 --> 00:25:38,040
Speaker 1: do if if I really like the car, all right,

480
00:25:38,480 --> 00:25:40,080
Speaker 1: if I really like the car and I want to

481
00:25:40,119 --> 00:25:43,320
Speaker 1: and I want to keep the car, um, I'd probably

482
00:25:43,320 --> 00:25:46,719
Speaker 1: consider replacing it. They've got a good track record, they

483
00:25:46,800 --> 00:25:50,600
Speaker 1: run a long time, all right. At this point is

484
00:25:50,640 --> 00:25:52,680
Speaker 1: fifteen dollars the most you've spent on the car in

485
00:25:52,720 --> 00:25:56,040
Speaker 1: a while, short of breaks and tires and service. That's

486
00:25:56,040 --> 00:25:59,040
Speaker 1: about well. I had a heater or heat uh, water

487
00:25:59,160 --> 00:26:03,639
Speaker 1: pump um, all the belts and hoses replaced here about

488
00:26:03,640 --> 00:26:06,919
Speaker 1: a year ago, normal maintenance. So so here's the question

489
00:26:06,960 --> 00:26:09,960
Speaker 1: for Tom. Does Tom want to spend thirty thousand dollars

490
00:26:09,960 --> 00:26:12,560
Speaker 1: on a hunday Sonata? As a guest, I'm thinking that's

491
00:26:12,600 --> 00:26:17,520
Speaker 1: what they gotta be, right, thirty five right give or take. Uh, Well,

492
00:26:17,560 --> 00:26:24,080
Speaker 1: they're a little less than that straight out, Okay, so

493
00:26:24,240 --> 00:26:26,679
Speaker 1: twenty it's thirty by the time they put tax on it.

494
00:26:26,880 --> 00:26:30,600
Speaker 1: So there's thirty eight they're gonna put tax on. There's

495
00:26:30,600 --> 00:26:33,000
Speaker 1: thirty grant. Do we want to spend thirty thousand out

496
00:26:33,000 --> 00:26:35,080
Speaker 1: of the retirement fund or do we want to spend

497
00:26:35,119 --> 00:26:40,800
Speaker 1: fifteen hundred out of the retirement fund? You know? Um,

498
00:26:40,880 --> 00:26:43,400
Speaker 1: the question I would ask the Mitsu dealer since you've

499
00:26:43,440 --> 00:26:45,639
Speaker 1: got a relationship with them and you can you can

500
00:26:45,680 --> 00:26:48,320
Speaker 1: trust them at this point. Um, they're your guys because

501
00:26:48,320 --> 00:26:50,159
Speaker 1: you gotta trust your guy, right. That's part of what

502
00:26:50,160 --> 00:26:52,720
Speaker 1: auto repair is, that's the illusion of or to repair.

503
00:26:52,760 --> 00:26:55,240
Speaker 1: We're all comfortable spending money with people. We know they

504
00:26:55,280 --> 00:26:57,639
Speaker 1: know you, right, you bought the car there, you've been

505
00:26:57,640 --> 00:27:01,119
Speaker 1: service in the car there. The question to them is, hey, guys,

506
00:27:01,359 --> 00:27:04,720
Speaker 1: you know what's the next calamitous thing I could expect?

507
00:27:06,080 --> 00:27:08,240
Speaker 1: And you know, if they tell you, hey, Tom, it's

508
00:27:08,280 --> 00:27:10,720
Speaker 1: it's gonna be a transmission and it's seven thousand dollars,

509
00:27:10,920 --> 00:27:14,240
Speaker 1: then you've got your answer. If they tell you that, well,

510
00:27:14,320 --> 00:27:16,520
Speaker 1: that's exactly where I'm coming from. You know, if I

511
00:27:16,640 --> 00:27:19,919
Speaker 1: spend a thousand on this down the road, you know

512
00:27:20,560 --> 00:27:23,399
Speaker 1: you never know about this right Well, and by the

513
00:27:23,440 --> 00:27:26,520
Speaker 1: same token, it's still it's twenty eight thousand, thirty thousand

514
00:27:26,520 --> 00:27:30,200
Speaker 1: dollars for the new one. Um, I think it's a mechanic.

515
00:27:30,280 --> 00:27:32,080
Speaker 1: I think the mechanic has to get involved in this

516
00:27:32,119 --> 00:27:36,000
Speaker 1: because only he knows the actual condition better than anybody.

517
00:27:36,040 --> 00:27:39,280
Speaker 1: Of course, then there's the psychological side of this, and

518
00:27:39,320 --> 00:27:42,200
Speaker 1: then there's the life issue side of this. Life's too short.

519
00:27:42,760 --> 00:27:46,760
Speaker 1: Tom wants a new car. It makes him feel good. Uh,

520
00:27:46,800 --> 00:27:50,199
Speaker 1: you know, it's it just there's there's something about that

521
00:27:50,240 --> 00:27:52,639
Speaker 1: new car smell that makes us all very happy. I

522
00:27:52,680 --> 00:27:57,359
Speaker 1: think when I think when God pushes us through and

523
00:27:57,400 --> 00:27:59,720
Speaker 1: out into this world, he puts these endorphins in there

524
00:27:59,760 --> 00:28:02,400
Speaker 1: that let them be excited by the by by these

525
00:28:02,440 --> 00:28:05,639
Speaker 1: particular smells. There's nothing like, oh my god, it smells

526
00:28:05,680 --> 00:28:06,720
Speaker 1: so good. As a matter of fact, you go to

527
00:28:06,720 --> 00:28:08,400
Speaker 1: the car wash, if you notice you've got your choice

528
00:28:08,400 --> 00:28:12,439
Speaker 1: of vanilla, Irish mint and new car smell in a bottle.

529
00:28:12,520 --> 00:28:14,679
Speaker 1: I haven't figured out how they do that. Um. I

530
00:28:14,680 --> 00:28:16,600
Speaker 1: think they're vacuuming up the smell from the new cars

531
00:28:16,600 --> 00:28:21,880
Speaker 1: on the assembly line. But the point becomes that, listen,

532
00:28:21,920 --> 00:28:24,840
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna be jimminy cricket from as. It's got

533
00:28:24,840 --> 00:28:26,879
Speaker 1: to be a mechanical point of view, it's got to

534
00:28:26,920 --> 00:28:29,880
Speaker 1: be a non emotional Is this what I really want

535
00:28:29,880 --> 00:28:34,520
Speaker 1: to continue to drive? All right? And that's that's that's

536
00:28:34,560 --> 00:28:38,320
Speaker 1: really it, exactly exactly. I know where you're coming from.

537
00:28:38,360 --> 00:28:40,280
Speaker 1: I had a fellow one to buy it as it is,

538
00:28:40,320 --> 00:28:42,440
Speaker 1: and I've been thinking about just going ahead and letting

539
00:28:42,520 --> 00:28:44,320
Speaker 1: him have it. Yeah, let me let me ask you

540
00:28:44,360 --> 00:28:46,920
Speaker 1: the important question. What does Tom's wife want him to do?

541
00:28:48,360 --> 00:28:50,760
Speaker 1: She would like a new car. You're done. We got

542
00:28:50,800 --> 00:28:54,280
Speaker 1: we have relatives in Florida, we have relatives in St.

00:30:03,880 --> 00:30:06,600
Speaker 1: let's go and talk to Rod in Iowa ninety six

564
00:30:06,960 --> 00:30:09,520
Speaker 1: to camera Rod. Welcome to the car Doctor, sir, How

565
00:30:09,680 --> 00:30:15,720
Speaker 1: how can I help? I have a slight oil? Well,

566
00:30:17,040 --> 00:30:19,920
Speaker 1: define slight? Is it hitting the back bumper yet or

567
00:30:19,920 --> 00:30:22,880
Speaker 1: is it just like a drip on the ground, on

568
00:30:22,920 --> 00:30:27,080
Speaker 1: the ground. Okay, I don't even add one chord between

569
00:30:27,120 --> 00:30:31,479
Speaker 1: all changes? All right? Um? Any idea where it's coming from?

570
00:30:31,560 --> 00:30:33,320
Speaker 1: Or is that your question for me? Which is kind

571
00:30:33,320 --> 00:30:37,360
Speaker 1: of hard from my seat here? Yeah? Right right, UM,

572
00:30:37,960 --> 00:30:44,760
Speaker 1: I have no IDEA four cylinder six cylinder? Rod? Is it?

573
00:30:45,000 --> 00:30:49,840
Speaker 1: Is it a four cylinder or six? I don't know

574
00:30:50,200 --> 00:30:54,000
Speaker 1: which engine it is? Yeah, I don't know. Okay, that

575
00:30:54,040 --> 00:30:56,440
Speaker 1: makes it even tougher, but I'll take a stab at it,

576
00:30:56,760 --> 00:30:59,479
Speaker 1: all right. If it's a six cylinder, if it's if

577
00:30:59,520 --> 00:31:02,840
Speaker 1: it's if it's a V six camera. Very common oil

578
00:31:02,920 --> 00:31:05,560
Speaker 1: leak is from the valve covers, especially the back one.

579
00:31:05,920 --> 00:31:09,280
Speaker 1: By now at eighty thousand miles. The valve covers are baked.

580
00:31:09,280 --> 00:31:11,760
Speaker 1: The rubber valve cover gaskets are just baked, and they're

581
00:31:11,760 --> 00:31:13,880
Speaker 1: gonna be rock hard. A bit of a job to do.

582
00:31:13,960 --> 00:31:16,720
Speaker 1: The upper intake plentum has to come off. There's there's

583
00:31:17,200 --> 00:31:19,720
Speaker 1: three bolts in the back of the intake manifold that

584
00:31:19,760 --> 00:31:22,560
Speaker 1: you can't see. There's two fourteens in a twelve holding

585
00:31:22,560 --> 00:31:25,200
Speaker 1: a bracket that that really you gotta shove your hand

586
00:31:25,240 --> 00:31:27,720
Speaker 1: down behind the firewall. When your hand starts to bleed,

587
00:31:27,760 --> 00:31:29,240
Speaker 1: that's about the moment you can get the wrench on

588
00:31:29,280 --> 00:31:32,080
Speaker 1: the nut and spin it off. A little bit of

589
00:31:32,080 --> 00:31:35,120
Speaker 1: a tough job. Good half a day's work, working hard,

590
00:31:35,160 --> 00:31:37,600
Speaker 1: and just be prepared that a bunch of plastic things

591
00:31:37,800 --> 00:31:39,360
Speaker 1: that are in the way you're gonna break and be

592
00:31:39,400 --> 00:31:42,920
Speaker 1: brittle and fall apart. Uh. You know? After that? Oil

593
00:31:43,000 --> 00:31:45,360
Speaker 1: leaks on the V six cameras and once in a

594
00:31:45,360 --> 00:31:48,400
Speaker 1: while you see a front crank seal behind the harmonic

595
00:31:48,400 --> 00:31:51,960
Speaker 1: balancer in the sprocket, but not common four cylinder cameras

596
00:31:52,400 --> 00:31:56,200
Speaker 1: four cylinder cameras. Valve covers also, but more likely if

597
00:31:56,200 --> 00:31:58,720
Speaker 1: it's down load towards the front of the motor. The

598
00:31:59,080 --> 00:32:01,160
Speaker 1: second most common oil leak on the fourth cylind to

599
00:32:01,240 --> 00:32:04,400
Speaker 1: cameras of that generation were around the oil pump area

600
00:32:04,480 --> 00:32:06,680
Speaker 1: just behind the cranks brocket. So it's gonna be the

601
00:32:06,680 --> 00:32:11,080
Speaker 1: front oil crank seal and the um oil pump gasket

602
00:32:11,120 --> 00:32:14,560
Speaker 1: area all around ceiling the timing cover or the front

603
00:32:14,560 --> 00:32:17,280
Speaker 1: oil pan gasket area to the oil pump to the

604
00:32:17,280 --> 00:32:21,200
Speaker 1: timing cover area all down there the whole front bottom quarter,

605
00:32:21,400 --> 00:32:23,000
Speaker 1: if I can say it like that, if the engine

606
00:32:23,360 --> 00:32:27,640
Speaker 1: tends to become one massive oil leak, obviously front camp

607
00:32:27,680 --> 00:32:30,720
Speaker 1: seals are an issue, we want to be aware of that.

608
00:32:30,760 --> 00:32:33,480
Speaker 1: But probably the most practical way to approach this is

609
00:32:33,760 --> 00:32:36,280
Speaker 1: a and does they after we figure out which engine

610
00:32:36,320 --> 00:32:38,600
Speaker 1: it is? Is if you're gonna have a garage, do

611
00:32:38,640 --> 00:32:41,320
Speaker 1: it is they need to wash everything down, add some

612
00:32:41,440 --> 00:32:44,240
Speaker 1: sort of a die to it, especially at this mileage,

613
00:32:44,640 --> 00:32:47,520
Speaker 1: and run the car. Where does the die show it's

614
00:32:47,520 --> 00:32:49,880
Speaker 1: a fluorescent dye with a black lightning a set of glasses.

615
00:32:50,160 --> 00:32:52,280
Speaker 1: Where does the die show that the leak is the

616
00:32:52,360 --> 00:32:55,760
Speaker 1: strongest in terms of you know where it's coming out

617
00:32:56,120 --> 00:32:58,440
Speaker 1: before you fix any oil leaks on a car like this,

618
00:32:58,680 --> 00:33:00,160
Speaker 1: And this is of course after is that the oil

619
00:33:00,320 --> 00:33:02,400
Speaker 1: as it could be the oil filter loose, could be

620
00:33:02,440 --> 00:33:04,840
Speaker 1: the drain plug loose. Simple stuff. You know, before you

621
00:33:04,880 --> 00:33:07,240
Speaker 1: fix a car of this age and mileage of any

622
00:33:07,280 --> 00:33:09,680
Speaker 1: kind of an oil leak, major issue like that, do

623
00:33:09,720 --> 00:33:12,920
Speaker 1: an evaluation of the rest of the car. And I'm

624
00:33:12,960 --> 00:33:16,240
Speaker 1: not just talking breaks, tires, shocks, front end things like that.

625
00:33:16,600 --> 00:33:18,480
Speaker 1: What kind of russ does the floor pan have? What

626
00:33:18,520 --> 00:33:21,360
Speaker 1: does the exhaust system look like? Does does the exhaust

627
00:33:21,360 --> 00:33:23,480
Speaker 1: system have the crunches on the flanges where it's gonna

628
00:33:23,520 --> 00:33:26,000
Speaker 1: fall apart? Shortly? All that stuff has to be taken

629
00:33:26,000 --> 00:33:28,680
Speaker 1: into consideration because you could have a fifty dollar repair,

630
00:33:28,880 --> 00:33:30,680
Speaker 1: you could have a two thousand dollar repair to fix

631
00:33:30,720 --> 00:33:32,400
Speaker 1: the soil leak, and you want to find that out

632
00:33:32,480 --> 00:33:36,440
Speaker 1: now before you spend the money. Eight five zero zero.

633
00:33:36,560 --> 00:33:38,160
Speaker 1: I'm on any of the car doctor coming back to

637
00:33:48,840 --> 00:33:52,840
Speaker 1: look a real quick friend of mine doing the same thing.

638
00:33:52,880 --> 00:33:58,600
Speaker 1: That was right, and you don't put car You know,

639
00:33:58,640 --> 00:34:03,000
Speaker 1: they were kind of really literally anyway. I can't explain

640
00:34:03,040 --> 00:34:05,760
Speaker 1: why and how, but I'm told them to give you

641
00:34:05,800 --> 00:34:08,640
Speaker 1: a call and then, because you're an expert, you know

642
00:34:08,680 --> 00:34:12,720
Speaker 1: that's uh is unknown in a small group under pleasure.

643
00:34:14,880 --> 00:34:17,520
Speaker 1: You're an expert art, and to give you a call

644
00:34:17,560 --> 00:34:21,640
Speaker 1: and thank you very much. Help. You're welcome, David. You

645
00:34:21,640 --> 00:34:23,200
Speaker 1: can tell them if you're still there, that you know

646
00:34:23,239 --> 00:34:25,160
Speaker 1: the reason trans fluid does that is because it's a

647
00:34:25,239 --> 00:34:28,440
Speaker 1: very high detergent fluid and they'll scrub away any varnish

648
00:34:28,440 --> 00:34:31,319
Speaker 1: and contaminant, not a lot, maybe maybe up to a

649
00:34:31,400 --> 00:34:33,759
Speaker 1: pint in an engine crank case, up to at least

650
00:34:33,760 --> 00:34:35,319
Speaker 1: four or four and a half quarts of oil with it.

651
00:34:35,520 --> 00:34:37,360
Speaker 1: Don't push the engine hard, try not to drive it,

652
00:34:37,440 --> 00:34:39,320
Speaker 1: just let it sit there in idle and then change

653
00:34:39,320 --> 00:34:41,480
Speaker 1: it right afterwards. And uh, that will make all the

654
00:34:41,520 --> 00:34:43,920
Speaker 1: difference in the world. They didn't want to do it

655
00:34:44,000 --> 00:34:47,560
Speaker 1: until the Yeah, I mean they can. They can also

656
00:34:47,600 --> 00:34:49,520
Speaker 1: go down to their local auto parts store and buy

657
00:34:49,520 --> 00:34:52,520
Speaker 1: Marvel Mystery Oil or anyone in the engine oil cleaning

658
00:34:52,560 --> 00:34:54,879
Speaker 1: solutions that they're they're pretty much the same thing. It's

659
00:34:54,920 --> 00:34:57,319
Speaker 1: just a fancy packet for a t F maybe with

660
00:34:57,360 --> 00:34:58,719
Speaker 1: some addit is in it that may or may not

661
00:34:58,760 --> 00:35:01,359
