I call this the Jerry McGuire syndrome for 56 00:02:47,919 --> 00:02:51,400 Speaker 1: reasons that will become obvious to you very shortly. And 57 00:02:51,440 --> 00:02:54,239 Speaker 1: I always think that this is the kind of customer 58 00:02:54,280 --> 00:02:56,840 Speaker 1: you're looking for as a business owner. You're looking for 59 00:02:56,880 --> 00:02:59,240 Speaker 1: somebody that's got that Jerry McGuire syndrome. You know what 60 00:02:59,280 --> 00:03:01,560 Speaker 1: that is. You don't know what that is. Remember that 61 00:03:01,600 --> 00:03:05,200 Speaker 1: scene where Tom Cruise and Cuba Gooding or walking out 62 00:03:05,200 --> 00:03:08,680 Speaker 1: of the practice and Tom's trying to and his character 63 00:03:08,760 --> 00:03:12,639 Speaker 1: Jerry McGuire is trying to explain to to Cuba Gooding 64 00:03:12,680 --> 00:03:16,160 Speaker 1: that you know they're talking about he's dating the divorced 65 00:03:16,200 --> 00:03:19,000 Speaker 1: mom and or she maybe she was a widow where 66 00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:21,640 Speaker 1: I don't remember, but she was a single mom and 67 00:03:21,760 --> 00:03:25,560 Speaker 1: um he's talking to her and explaining with regards to 68 00:03:25,639 --> 00:03:27,079 Speaker 1: what it's like to be going out with her, and 69 00:03:27,160 --> 00:03:29,639 Speaker 1: Cuba Gooding looks at him and he says, you know, Jerry, 70 00:03:29,960 --> 00:03:33,399 Speaker 1: you gotta remember, she's been to the circus, she's seen 71 00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:37,000 Speaker 1: the show. She knows what it's all about. And the 72 00:03:37,040 --> 00:03:39,640 Speaker 1: conversation then goes on to other areas which we won't 73 00:03:39,640 --> 00:03:41,800 Speaker 1: mention because this is family Radio, but the bottom line 74 00:03:41,840 --> 00:03:47,280 Speaker 1: becomes that it's just that she knew what she wanted 75 00:03:47,320 --> 00:03:49,960 Speaker 1: in terms of, you know, dating, and Jerry had to 76 00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:51,960 Speaker 1: get that through his head. It was he found somebody 77 00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:54,880 Speaker 1: that actually knew what they were looking for. I call 78 00:03:54,960 --> 00:03:58,400 Speaker 1: that Jerry McGuire syndrome. New customer walks into the shop 79 00:03:58,440 --> 00:04:03,120 Speaker 1: this week, Elizabeth with her twenty team jeep Wrangler, and 80 00:04:03,160 --> 00:04:05,200 Speaker 1: she had Jerry McGuire syndrome. She knew what she was 81 00:04:05,240 --> 00:04:08,800 Speaker 1: looking for and it was really kind of refreshing. And 82 00:04:09,280 --> 00:04:14,440 Speaker 1: she was a no nonsense, made sense, you know, intelligent 83 00:04:14,520 --> 00:04:16,719 Speaker 1: person that I just want my car fixed, and I 84 00:04:16,800 --> 00:04:19,520 Speaker 1: just don't want to feel like I'm being cheated, and 85 00:04:19,560 --> 00:04:21,000 Speaker 1: I don't want to be told that the car is 86 00:04:21,040 --> 00:04:23,520 Speaker 1: gonna be ready in ten minutes and it takes you 87 00:04:23,560 --> 00:04:25,760 Speaker 1: three hours before you even get to it. And I 88 00:04:25,800 --> 00:04:27,520 Speaker 1: found out I could have I could have left the 89 00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:30,800 Speaker 1: car and gone somewhere else and then come back. And 90 00:04:30,920 --> 00:04:33,479 Speaker 1: the more I talked to Elizabeth, I found her to 91 00:04:33,520 --> 00:04:37,919 Speaker 1: be very refreshing. It was it was something that we 92 00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:40,839 Speaker 1: haven't experienced at the shop in a while with regards 93 00:04:40,880 --> 00:04:42,840 Speaker 1: to a new person walking and because it seems like 94 00:04:42,880 --> 00:04:45,440 Speaker 1: everybody comes in with drama and everybody comes in with 95 00:04:45,480 --> 00:04:47,839 Speaker 1: a problem, but not Elizabeth. As a matter of fact, 96 00:04:48,440 --> 00:04:50,480 Speaker 1: during the course of servicing her car, you know, it 97 00:04:50,560 --> 00:04:52,919 Speaker 1: was you're gonna rotate the tire, shure, I said, where's 98 00:04:52,920 --> 00:04:56,119 Speaker 1: the wheelocks? She actually knew where her wheelock keys were. Heck, 99 00:04:56,240 --> 00:05:00,200 Speaker 1: she knew what wheelocks were, which kind of amazed me. 100 00:05:00,880 --> 00:05:05,080 Speaker 1: I was very impressed by that. And I think more 101 00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:08,559 Speaker 1: people need to strive to be like Elizabeth in terms 102 00:05:08,680 --> 00:05:11,800 Speaker 1: of how they manage the care of the automobile. Look, 103 00:05:11,839 --> 00:05:16,640 Speaker 1: it's not it's not rocket science, all right, Listen, every 104 00:05:16,680 --> 00:05:19,440 Speaker 1: repair shop, unless they just started yesterday, has been around 105 00:05:19,520 --> 00:05:22,920 Speaker 1: long enough. They've heard every sob story. I understand everybody 106 00:05:22,960 --> 00:05:24,640 Speaker 1: walking in the door wants to get it as cheap 107 00:05:24,640 --> 00:05:28,039 Speaker 1: as they can. I get that, all right. You know, 108 00:05:28,080 --> 00:05:29,880 Speaker 1: we all want everything for free, and we all want 109 00:05:29,880 --> 00:05:32,200 Speaker 1: it cheap. I mean, that's human nature. But the reality 110 00:05:32,400 --> 00:05:35,360 Speaker 1: is that in order for a business to survive, they 111 00:05:35,400 --> 00:05:38,480 Speaker 1: have to charge you X amount of dollars. What sort 112 00:05:38,520 --> 00:05:41,279 Speaker 1: of service do they give you an exchange for those dollars? 113 00:05:41,480 --> 00:05:43,840 Speaker 1: Do you get good service? Do you get a good feeling? 114 00:05:44,400 --> 00:05:47,479 Speaker 1: Do you know why you're in that repair shopper dealership? 115 00:05:47,680 --> 00:05:51,159 Speaker 1: Are you getting what you need? Are you just miserable 116 00:05:51,600 --> 00:05:53,800 Speaker 1: and you're afraid to move on and look somewhere else? 117 00:05:54,200 --> 00:05:56,320 Speaker 1: And that was one of the things Elizabeth conveyed to me. 118 00:05:56,360 --> 00:05:58,600 Speaker 1: She said, you know, I knew these guys, weren't it 119 00:05:59,480 --> 00:06:02,560 Speaker 1: because every time I went there, they were trying to 120 00:06:02,600 --> 00:06:06,279 Speaker 1: sell me something. And you can sit there and say, well, run, 121 00:06:06,279 --> 00:06:09,760 Speaker 1: maybe the car needed something. It's a twenty fifteen jeep. 122 00:06:10,360 --> 00:06:13,320 Speaker 1: When I saw it on Thursday, it had eleven thousand 123 00:06:13,360 --> 00:06:16,840 Speaker 1: miles on it. How much service could have a one 124 00:06:16,880 --> 00:06:19,159 Speaker 1: and a half year old vehicle with eleven thousand miles 125 00:06:19,160 --> 00:06:22,760 Speaker 1: on it need an oil change, entire rotation, and maybe 126 00:06:22,760 --> 00:06:25,160 Speaker 1: a bottle of fuel system cleaner. What else can they 127 00:06:25,200 --> 00:06:29,719 Speaker 1: sell you? I mean, it's new. The maintenance on vehicles 128 00:06:29,760 --> 00:06:33,120 Speaker 1: has gone way down, so much so when we were 129 00:06:33,160 --> 00:06:38,080 Speaker 1: talking about this the other day, two thousand five, Chrysler 130 00:06:38,160 --> 00:06:42,600 Speaker 1: Town and Country came into the shop hundred and nine thousand, 131 00:06:42,720 --> 00:06:45,680 Speaker 1: three hundred eighty eight miles. It had a bucking condition. 132 00:06:46,320 --> 00:06:49,840 Speaker 1: The car would buck on hesitation, on acceleration. It would hesitate, 133 00:06:50,320 --> 00:06:53,200 Speaker 1: and it sounded if we want to use you know, 134 00:06:53,680 --> 00:06:57,680 Speaker 1: audio failure. It sounded like the distributor all of a 135 00:06:57,720 --> 00:07:00,240 Speaker 1: sudden went too far advance. It's not distributor, it's it's 136 00:07:00,279 --> 00:07:03,200 Speaker 1: it's it's computer controlled, but it sound like an older 137 00:07:03,240 --> 00:07:05,919 Speaker 1: car with a vacuum advance. It's stuck wide open. It 138 00:07:05,920 --> 00:07:09,120 Speaker 1: would ping and detonate and just bucking. All sorts of issues. 139 00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:12,160 Speaker 1: Had a P zero three forty four and a P 140 00:07:12,320 --> 00:07:16,440 Speaker 1: zero three thirty five cam and crank center folds. Chrysler 141 00:07:16,560 --> 00:07:19,400 Speaker 1: common very common failure for it to be one or 142 00:07:19,440 --> 00:07:22,000 Speaker 1: the other or both, and one or the other can 143 00:07:22,120 --> 00:07:28,720 Speaker 1: cause that particular failure. The diagnosis requires and you have 144 00:07:28,880 --> 00:07:32,160 Speaker 1: not heard me say this in a long time. All right. 145 00:07:32,600 --> 00:07:37,800 Speaker 1: The diagnosis requires hooking up a lab scope to channels 146 00:07:37,880 --> 00:07:41,680 Speaker 1: and looking at the signals that the sensors are producing 147 00:07:41,720 --> 00:07:46,720 Speaker 1: to see which one is out. The amount of oil 148 00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:50,440 Speaker 1: leaking out of the valve covers on this particular car. 149 00:07:53,000 --> 00:07:55,640 Speaker 1: The Middle East doesn't have this much oil, all right. 150 00:07:56,040 --> 00:07:58,280 Speaker 1: When I'm talking, when i'm talking in oil leak, I'm 151 00:07:58,320 --> 00:08:01,520 Speaker 1: talking in about another twenty of my talking. If this 152 00:08:01,560 --> 00:08:03,920 Speaker 1: car is doing fifty five going down the road, the 153 00:08:04,040 --> 00:08:06,520 Speaker 1: entire undercarriage of the vehicle is now rustproofed and the 154 00:08:06,520 --> 00:08:10,240 Speaker 1: oil is dripping off the back bumper. All right, how 155 00:08:10,280 --> 00:08:14,360 Speaker 1: many things wrong? And and and I'm on subject here, 156 00:08:14,400 --> 00:08:16,920 Speaker 1: give me a second. How many things wrong do we 157 00:08:16,960 --> 00:08:19,040 Speaker 1: find with the human body? When we do cat scans 158 00:08:19,040 --> 00:08:21,239 Speaker 1: and MRIs, we can see so much we can scare 159 00:08:21,240 --> 00:08:24,920 Speaker 1: ourselves to death. You hook a lab scope up to 160 00:08:24,960 --> 00:08:27,640 Speaker 1: an oil soaked wiring harness on a twelve year old, 161 00:08:27,640 --> 00:08:30,960 Speaker 1: two thousand mile vehicle, you're gonna see things that will 162 00:08:31,000 --> 00:08:33,720 Speaker 1: scare you to death. And the time it's gonna take 163 00:08:33,720 --> 00:08:37,480 Speaker 1: you to scope this versus spending a hundred dollars on 164 00:08:37,520 --> 00:08:43,320 Speaker 1: two sensors is incomparable. It just it just doesn't pay. 165 00:08:43,720 --> 00:08:45,400 Speaker 1: And that's what we did. We put two centers in 166 00:08:45,400 --> 00:08:48,080 Speaker 1: the car, done fixed down the road. My point is 167 00:08:48,800 --> 00:08:52,760 Speaker 1: what's my point? My point is that there's a car 168 00:08:52,840 --> 00:08:55,640 Speaker 1: that needed something. Of course, look at the age and mileage. Now, 169 00:08:55,679 --> 00:08:57,760 Speaker 1: if you notice, we're always talking about cars failing at 170 00:08:57,840 --> 00:09:02,200 Speaker 1: higher mileage. Twelve years old, two hundred thousand miles, eight 171 00:09:02,240 --> 00:09:05,640 Speaker 1: years old, hundred and fifty thousand miles. Back to Elizabeth 172 00:09:07,120 --> 00:09:11,720 Speaker 1: geep wrangler eleven thousand, five hundred sixty six miles. What 173 00:09:11,840 --> 00:09:15,439 Speaker 1: could the dealership possibly be trying to sell her? What 174 00:09:15,480 --> 00:09:20,360 Speaker 1: could it need? Legitimately, not all dealers are bad folks. 175 00:09:20,920 --> 00:09:24,320 Speaker 1: Not all independent repair shops are good. You know what, 176 00:09:24,640 --> 00:09:27,240 Speaker 1: a repair shop is only as good as the people 177 00:09:27,400 --> 00:09:30,480 Speaker 1: in that building. And that's the bottom line. And that's 178 00:09:30,520 --> 00:09:33,200 Speaker 1: the conclusion of this story. So what I want you 179 00:09:33,240 --> 00:09:35,040 Speaker 1: to think about as we go forward this hour and 180 00:09:35,120 --> 00:09:36,800 Speaker 1: for all the car doctor hours we have yet to 181 00:09:36,800 --> 00:09:40,760 Speaker 1: spend together.

Why can't 198 00:10:57,200 --> 00:10:59,880 Speaker 1: can I just use a ten thirty on all of 199 00:11:00,400 --> 00:11:02,400 Speaker 1: Let me answer that question this way. I have I 200 00:11:02,440 --> 00:11:04,520 Speaker 1: have a friend. I have a friend, Jeff. Jeff is 201 00:11:04,720 --> 00:11:07,719 Speaker 1: an old engine collector. He collects a lot of the 202 00:11:08,240 --> 00:11:11,360 Speaker 1: the the one long you know, the stuff you used 203 00:11:11,400 --> 00:11:14,680 Speaker 1: to find on plantations a hundred years ago, um, the 204 00:11:14,760 --> 00:11:18,360 Speaker 1: hitting mis engines. And we we talked about oil on 205 00:11:18,559 --> 00:11:21,000 Speaker 1: the older stuff versus the newer stuff all the time, 206 00:11:21,800 --> 00:11:24,440 Speaker 1: and Jeff runs multi viscosity and all of them. He 207 00:11:24,520 --> 00:11:27,800 Speaker 1: never has a problem. And his explanation to me makes 208 00:11:27,840 --> 00:11:29,400 Speaker 1: the most sense out of all of it. He said, 209 00:11:29,440 --> 00:11:31,840 Speaker 1: you know, a hundred years ago, seventy five years ago, 210 00:11:32,640 --> 00:11:36,200 Speaker 1: nobody could envision ten thirty viscosity, a ten thirty multi 211 00:11:36,280 --> 00:11:39,600 Speaker 1: viscosity oil with the level of expertise that it has today. 212 00:11:39,720 --> 00:11:43,000 Speaker 1: So absolutely you can, uh, you know, the stuff today 213 00:11:43,040 --> 00:11:45,960 Speaker 1: is so much better. You're never gonna find the oil 214 00:11:46,200 --> 00:11:49,079 Speaker 1: that you had seventy five years ago. Seventy five years ago, 215 00:11:49,120 --> 00:11:50,880 Speaker 1: the oil was refined in such a way that there 216 00:11:50,880 --> 00:11:52,880 Speaker 1: was a GrITT in particulate in it because it wasn't 217 00:11:52,880 --> 00:11:56,920 Speaker 1: as refined and as clean. Uh, you know, so trust me. 218 00:11:56,960 --> 00:12:01,280 Speaker 1: The oil we're putting into anything today versus thirty forty 219 00:12:01,320 --> 00:12:04,600 Speaker 1: years ago, versus seventy five years ago, a hundred years ago, 220 00:12:05,679 --> 00:12:10,520 Speaker 1: is just so much better in terms of quality that 221 00:12:11,160 --> 00:12:14,480 Speaker 1: you know, you're just there's no comparison there. There's really 222 00:12:14,520 --> 00:12:17,120 Speaker 1: no comparison. I see absolutely no problem with that whatsoever. 223 00:12:19,040 --> 00:12:21,439 Speaker 1: Run you know, you know the reason they asked was 224 00:12:21,520 --> 00:12:24,720 Speaker 1: because you know, uh, somebody told me that fuses here 225 00:12:24,880 --> 00:12:29,120 Speaker 1: modern tent through also hi detergent oils and loosen all 226 00:12:29,120 --> 00:12:31,920 Speaker 1: the slegends old engines. Well, you know, and that's the 227 00:12:31,960 --> 00:12:34,559 Speaker 1: other conversation Jeff and I have, And I'm going to 228 00:12:34,640 --> 00:12:36,760 Speaker 1: get ahold of an oil engineer to get an answer 229 00:12:36,760 --> 00:12:39,800 Speaker 1: to this, because we talked about that as well. Stands 230 00:12:39,800 --> 00:12:41,320 Speaker 1: like you were standing in the shop. We had this 231 00:12:41,360 --> 00:12:44,240 Speaker 1: conversation ten days ago. Jeff and I had stopped by 232 00:12:44,320 --> 00:12:46,120 Speaker 1: for something. He has a fifty five chev We were 233 00:12:46,160 --> 00:12:48,800 Speaker 1: moving something around on the car and we were talking 234 00:12:48,840 --> 00:12:52,200 Speaker 1: about oil and detergency, and you know, my conclusion. His 235 00:12:52,280 --> 00:12:55,920 Speaker 1: conclusion is that the detergency will help clean it up, 236 00:12:56,720 --> 00:12:59,720 Speaker 1: but to what level. Listen, if you're that worried about it, 237 00:12:59,800 --> 00:13:04,960 Speaker 1: you a detergent oil and change it more frequently. Maybe 238 00:13:05,000 --> 00:13:06,839 Speaker 1: maybe put the detergent oil in it. If it breaks 239 00:13:06,880 --> 00:13:09,199 Speaker 1: up all the sludge and varnish, you know, if it's 240 00:13:09,200 --> 00:13:12,319 Speaker 1: a small engine, run it for five hours and then 241 00:13:12,400 --> 00:13:15,280 Speaker 1: change it, you know, whereas you might normally keep it 242 00:13:15,320 --> 00:13:19,120 Speaker 1: in there first season. Use that, use that detergency as 243 00:13:19,160 --> 00:13:25,280 Speaker 1: a cleaning agent, because it can only help now, you know, 244 00:13:25,360 --> 00:13:28,520 Speaker 1: in terms of an automobile. Listen part of this conversation, 245 00:13:28,600 --> 00:13:31,120 Speaker 1: Jeff and I had was also with regards to you know, 246 00:13:31,160 --> 00:13:33,920 Speaker 1: in in nineteen fifty five and oil filter was optional 247 00:13:34,200 --> 00:13:36,280 Speaker 1: on some of the engines at fifty five chev He's had. 248 00:13:36,920 --> 00:13:39,480 Speaker 1: In some cases guys were stuffing rolls of toilet paper 249 00:13:39,720 --> 00:13:41,959 Speaker 1: in those filter housing instead of putting a real filter 250 00:13:42,040 --> 00:13:46,040 Speaker 1: in there, so things were done differently. The filtering systems 251 00:13:46,040 --> 00:13:49,480 Speaker 1: were just so crude back then that you know, we 252 00:13:49,559 --> 00:13:51,600 Speaker 1: look at it and we compare it to modern engines 253 00:13:51,600 --> 00:13:54,160 Speaker 1: and modern oil technology. You know, I look at what 254 00:13:54,240 --> 00:13:58,640 Speaker 1: Penn's Oil has done in terms of their natural gas 255 00:13:58,640 --> 00:14:02,040 Speaker 1: derivative oils and what they've come up with, and it's 256 00:14:02,080 --> 00:14:06,120 Speaker 1: just it's staggering. And you look back to, uh, you know, 257 00:14:07,320 --> 00:14:09,960 Speaker 1: the way oils were made then versus now. The the 258 00:14:09,960 --> 00:14:13,440 Speaker 1: Pen's Oil ultra platinum oil is just tremendous and it's 259 00:14:13,440 --> 00:14:15,439 Speaker 1: so clean. It comes from a natural gas based dock. 260 00:14:15,520 --> 00:14:19,600 Speaker 1: My point is that I think us old timers, and 261 00:14:19,600 --> 00:14:21,560 Speaker 1: I kind of count you and I in that group stand. 262 00:14:22,080 --> 00:14:24,720 Speaker 1: You know, we're we're looking at the way things were 263 00:14:24,760 --> 00:14:31,600 Speaker 1: made versus you know, what's what what's really going on today. Um, 264 00:14:31,920 --> 00:14:33,520 Speaker 1: you know, I defy anybody to go out to the 265 00:14:33,520 --> 00:14:36,520 Speaker 1: Penns Oil website, get out the penns Oil Synthetics dot 266 00:14:36,560 --> 00:14:38,360 Speaker 1: com and start to read about how the oil is 267 00:14:38,360 --> 00:14:40,880 Speaker 1: produced and how it's how it's made, how it comes 268 00:14:40,880 --> 00:14:43,120 Speaker 1: out of that hole in the ground. And you'll sit 269 00:14:43,120 --> 00:14:45,480 Speaker 1: there and you'll say, how do they do that? And no, 270 00:14:45,560 --> 00:14:47,360 Speaker 1: wonder cars last as long as they do if they're 271 00:14:47,440 --> 00:14:49,760 Speaker 1: using a quality oil like that. And I think you'll 272 00:14:49,760 --> 00:14:52,280 Speaker 1: find the same results with your engine, with all of 273 00:14:52,280 --> 00:14:55,720 Speaker 1: your engines, uh, you know, using a multi visk like that. 274 00:14:56,280 --> 00:14:59,480 Speaker 1: And you know, the detergent concern is a legitimate concern. 275 00:14:59,720 --> 00:15:06,800 Speaker 1: I don't think it's a game changer. That's so. By 276 00:15:06,840 --> 00:15:08,880 Speaker 1: the way, your phone connection was excellent today. Stand what 277 00:15:08,920 --> 00:15:13,080 Speaker 1: did you do different? Maybe I'm just talking different. No, No No, 278 00:15:13,360 --> 00:15:16,240 Speaker 1: you sound great today. So house things out there in Minnesota. Way, 279 00:15:16,280 --> 00:15:19,400 Speaker 1: by the way, what's the weather like. It's hot and humid. 280 00:15:19,440 --> 00:15:23,280 Speaker 1: We're about eighty degrees and humid. All the snow melted 281 00:15:23,320 --> 00:15:32,200 Speaker 1: by now finally yeah, finally last week? Right? Yeah, Hey, hey, 282 00:15:32,240 --> 00:15:36,840 Speaker 1: STI I did that frost about a week and alf ago. Yeah, 283 00:15:37,040 --> 00:15:39,280 Speaker 1: so you know, I'll never forget. I tell the story 284 00:15:39,320 --> 00:15:41,040 Speaker 1: every time on air. You know, the last time I 285 00:15:41,120 --> 00:15:43,680 Speaker 1: visited Minnesota was a good couple of oh probably seven 286 00:15:43,680 --> 00:15:46,200 Speaker 1: eight years ago, and I remember driving down from the 287 00:15:46,240 --> 00:15:49,120 Speaker 1: Twin Cities down to o Watana to visit the folks 288 00:15:49,120 --> 00:15:51,440 Speaker 1: at Otc and somebody pointed out that this is where 289 00:15:51,440 --> 00:15:54,200 Speaker 1: the Great Plains Indians lived, and you know, the amount 290 00:15:54,240 --> 00:15:56,680 Speaker 1: of snow they get is related to the stick on 291 00:15:56,720 --> 00:15:58,360 Speaker 1: the front door of the house, because they used the 292 00:15:58,400 --> 00:15:59,960 Speaker 1: stick to find the front door because they get so 293 00:16:00,120 --> 00:16:02,360 Speaker 1: much snow. And he said to me, you know, that's 294 00:16:02,360 --> 00:16:04,120 Speaker 1: why all the Great Plans Indians are gone, because they 295 00:16:04,200 --> 00:16:05,520 Speaker 1: lived out here in the cold and the snow. It 296 00:16:05,600 --> 00:16:08,480 Speaker 1: killed them all. And uh, I said, yeah, I think 297 00:16:08,480 --> 00:16:10,280 Speaker 1: there's a joke in there somewhere, but I'm not sure 298 00:16:10,280 --> 00:16:14,239 Speaker 1: exactly where. Stanley, I gotta I gotta go. I appreciate 299 00:16:14,280 --> 00:16:16,440 Speaker 1: the call, and I appreciate you being such a great listener, 300 00:16:16,520 --> 00:16:17,960 Speaker 1: and good luck to you and all that you do. 301 00:16:19,600 --> 00:16:22,960 Speaker 1: Take good care, um real fast. I want to again 302 00:16:23,000 --> 00:16:26,040 Speaker 1: thanks to stan It's always I'm glad listen. I'm glad 303 00:16:26,040 --> 00:16:28,000 Speaker 1: stan didn't bring up the positive ground thing again. We 304 00:16:28,000 --> 00:16:30,280 Speaker 1: don't have to go through that one more time. But um, 305 00:16:30,280 --> 00:16:32,200 Speaker 1: I want to talk about one thing that's important to me. 306 00:16:32,240 --> 00:16:34,040 Speaker 1: I hadn't experienced this week at the shop. Young man 307 00:16:34,080 --> 00:16:37,280 Speaker 1: came in the shop, Leo. I know Leo since he 308 00:16:37,440 --> 00:16:40,720 Speaker 1: was probably five years old, And boy do I feel 309 00:16:40,760 --> 00:16:44,600 Speaker 1: old because now he's driving, and Leo is Leo's hot 310 00:16:44,640 --> 00:16:46,200 Speaker 1: rod of choice. You know, back in my day it 311 00:16:46,240 --> 00:16:49,000 Speaker 1: was Chevys and Fords, but Leo's hot rod of choice 312 00:16:49,080 --> 00:16:52,760 Speaker 1: is an O eight Subru w r X. He changed 313 00:16:52,760 --> 00:16:55,400 Speaker 1: the wheels on this car, brought it in afterwards, and 314 00:16:55,400 --> 00:16:58,280 Speaker 1: he said, you know, I got this clanking, creaking noise 315 00:16:59,000 --> 00:17:00,920 Speaker 1: out of the left rear of the you know, driver's 316 00:17:00,960 --> 00:17:04,560 Speaker 1: side rear corner. And we looked at it and put 317 00:17:04,560 --> 00:17:06,119 Speaker 1: it up in the air, and you can just grab 318 00:17:06,160 --> 00:17:09,119 Speaker 1: the wheel and go clunk, clunk, clunk. Gee. Look at that. 319 00:17:09,160 --> 00:17:11,760 Speaker 1: The wheels loose. Lug nuts are tight, but the wheels 320 00:17:11,760 --> 00:17:15,160 Speaker 1: loose in the end. And I've got a point here 321 00:17:15,640 --> 00:17:19,320 Speaker 1: in the end, Leo used the original lug nuts with 322 00:17:19,359 --> 00:17:23,520 Speaker 1: the new wheels. The taper was different. It didn't see properly, 323 00:17:24,160 --> 00:17:27,720 Speaker 1: and it allowed that wheel to rock on the studs 324 00:17:27,960 --> 00:17:30,639 Speaker 1: to the point that And I said this to him 325 00:17:30,640 --> 00:17:33,080 Speaker 1: because I knew his grandmother. I said, Cookie must have 326 00:17:33,119 --> 00:17:35,879 Speaker 1: been watching out for you, because you were doing sixty 327 00:17:36,160 --> 00:17:39,960 Speaker 1: sev coming up the parkway and the wheel didn't fall off. 328 00:17:40,720 --> 00:17:43,640 Speaker 1: And my point is, and I got Leo to understand 329 00:17:43,640 --> 00:17:47,280 Speaker 1: the value and just taking a breath and and doing 330 00:17:47,280 --> 00:17:51,080 Speaker 1: it right and following procedure. My point is, it takes 331 00:17:51,080 --> 00:17:53,640 Speaker 1: a village to raise a child. And I think about this. 332 00:17:54,080 --> 00:17:56,680 Speaker 1: You know, I really appreciate young people trying to learn 333 00:17:56,680 --> 00:17:59,840 Speaker 1: how to work on cars. If you know one, you know. 334 00:17:59,880 --> 00:18:02,000 Speaker 1: I looked at Leo. He felt bad, he was embarrassed. 335 00:18:02,000 --> 00:18:03,960 Speaker 1: I said, Leo, if you knew all the mistakes I 336 00:18:04,119 --> 00:18:06,960 Speaker 1: made as a kid, all right, you wouldn't believe I'm 337 00:18:07,000 --> 00:18:09,960 Speaker 1: the same guy today. Everybody has to learn somewhere. Everybody 338 00:18:09,960 --> 00:18:13,240 Speaker 1: has to ride the bike without training wheels, skin their knee, 339 00:18:13,240 --> 00:18:17,080 Speaker 1: fall off, et cetera. They said, don't feel bit if 340 00:18:17,119 --> 00:18:20,119 Speaker 1: if you know someone trying to work on cars, and 341 00:18:20,119 --> 00:18:22,240 Speaker 1: this being Father's Day, I think it's an apropro time 342 00:18:22,280 --> 00:18:26,479 Speaker 1: to to make this suggestion. Take a moment, take him 343 00:18:26,520 --> 00:18:30,200 Speaker 1: under your wing and say, hey, you know, how's it going? Um, 344 00:18:30,280 --> 00:18:32,960 Speaker 1: you know, how's the car? Do you have any questions? 345 00:18:33,000 --> 00:18:35,720 Speaker 1: Because I think it's important. Leo's mom came in to 346 00:18:35,760 --> 00:18:38,399 Speaker 1: pick up her car and pay for his and and 347 00:18:38,440 --> 00:18:40,879 Speaker 1: so forth, and when he paid for his when he 348 00:18:40,920 --> 00:18:42,920 Speaker 1: picked it up, and I talked to her on the side, 349 00:18:42,920 --> 00:18:44,399 Speaker 1: and she was glad that I had talked to him, 350 00:18:44,400 --> 00:18:46,160 Speaker 1: but she was also glad to know what was going on. 351 00:18:46,480 --> 00:18:48,720 Speaker 1: And they'll pay more attention. So hey, if your kids 352 00:18:48,720 --> 00:18:51,480 Speaker 1: working on their car, pay attention, V if you can 353 00:18:51,480 --> 00:18:54,040 Speaker 1: be a mentor, mentor a youngster today because they need 354 00:18:54,080 --> 00:18:57,000 Speaker 1: help understanding how those cars work and to keep them safe. 355 00:18:57,119 --> 00:18:58,960 Speaker 1: I'm runing any in the car Doctor. I'll be back 356 00:18:59,080 --> 00:19:14,639 Speaker 1: right after this. Welcome back.

John, Welcome to the car doctor, sir, 370 00:19:48,800 --> 00:19:52,560 Speaker 1: how can I help? Thank you? Ron, You're welcome. Uh. 371 00:19:52,880 --> 00:19:58,600 Speaker 1: I have a two thousand four X and yesterday I 372 00:19:58,680 --> 00:20:02,119 Speaker 1: brought an in for my annual own inspection at my 373 00:20:02,600 --> 00:20:05,159 Speaker 1: mechanic that I've been using for eight years and trust 374 00:20:05,520 --> 00:20:10,639 Speaker 1: very much. However, he wasn't there yesterday, and his associate was, 375 00:20:11,040 --> 00:20:13,560 Speaker 1: and I got the inspection, and I also got a 376 00:20:13,560 --> 00:20:16,840 Speaker 1: phone call saying that he thought that I should change 377 00:20:16,880 --> 00:20:22,000 Speaker 1: my spark plugs, and I just don't know anything about that. 378 00:20:22,320 --> 00:20:25,840 Speaker 1: I have miles on the car, I've had no trouble, 379 00:20:26,560 --> 00:20:29,200 Speaker 1: and when I questioned them on it, he just said, well, 380 00:20:29,280 --> 00:20:31,639 Speaker 1: you probably should change them now, just in case you 381 00:20:31,640 --> 00:20:34,159 Speaker 1: have any trouble in the near future. So I was 382 00:20:34,200 --> 00:20:36,080 Speaker 1: just wondering, how often do you have to change the 383 00:20:36,119 --> 00:20:40,320 Speaker 1: spark plugs on this vehicle, that particular vehicle, John, I 384 00:20:40,359 --> 00:20:43,320 Speaker 1: believe manufacturer calls for a spark plug interval of about 385 00:20:43,320 --> 00:20:46,840 Speaker 1: add and twenty thousand miles. But look at the age 386 00:20:46,840 --> 00:20:51,280 Speaker 1: of the car. It's ten twelve years old, twelve years old, 387 00:20:51,760 --> 00:20:54,520 Speaker 1: and and the question really becomes will the plug come 388 00:20:54,560 --> 00:20:57,919 Speaker 1: out of the head at that point, and you know 389 00:20:57,960 --> 00:20:59,920 Speaker 1: that can become a mess now to do spark plug 390 00:21:00,080 --> 00:21:02,080 Speaker 1: on that. This is an r X three, so this 391 00:21:02,160 --> 00:21:05,679 Speaker 1: is the V six. You know, the right way to 392 00:21:05,760 --> 00:21:07,840 Speaker 1: do it, to make life simple is to pull the 393 00:21:07,920 --> 00:21:14,280 Speaker 1: plenum giving giving you a sense of accessibility. So yeah, 394 00:21:14,320 --> 00:21:17,000 Speaker 1: you know what, the mechanics not really wrong because he's 395 00:21:17,000 --> 00:21:20,920 Speaker 1: actually watching out for your better interest because right now, 396 00:21:21,000 --> 00:21:24,160 Speaker 1: hopefully the plug does come out of the head versus 397 00:21:24,320 --> 00:21:26,920 Speaker 1: miles later, you know, will it How long will it 398 00:21:26,960 --> 00:21:29,160 Speaker 1: take you to put five miles on the car? Another 399 00:21:29,200 --> 00:21:33,760 Speaker 1: five years? Yeah? You know when at what point does 400 00:21:33,800 --> 00:21:35,560 Speaker 1: it bond and it doesn't come out and it becomes 401 00:21:35,560 --> 00:21:38,480 Speaker 1: a bigger issue. Now a couple of caveats, all right? 402 00:21:39,880 --> 00:21:43,320 Speaker 1: Number one, have him take a look at the rear 403 00:21:43,400 --> 00:21:46,639 Speaker 1: valve cover. Is the rear valve cover leaking any oil? 404 00:21:47,160 --> 00:21:50,040 Speaker 1: Not to not to sell you a bigger job, but 405 00:21:50,359 --> 00:21:53,320 Speaker 1: if the rear valve covers leaking oil, now is the 406 00:21:53,359 --> 00:21:56,840 Speaker 1: time to do it, all right, when the plenum is off, 407 00:21:57,359 --> 00:22:00,560 Speaker 1: accessibility of the valve cover is right there. You know, 408 00:22:00,600 --> 00:22:02,560 Speaker 1: it's an additional hour and a half two hours of 409 00:22:02,600 --> 00:22:05,080 Speaker 1: shop time. Take the valve cover off, clean it up, 410 00:22:05,080 --> 00:22:08,080 Speaker 1: put a fresh one on, and you're you're avoiding taking 411 00:22:08,119 --> 00:22:12,080 Speaker 1: the upper intake planum off again in thirty thousand miles 412 00:22:12,080 --> 00:22:16,400 Speaker 1: when the problem gets worse. That's number one, number number two. 413 00:22:17,200 --> 00:22:22,320 Speaker 1: Since two thousand, two thousand one, Lexus Toyota products had 414 00:22:22,800 --> 00:22:27,680 Speaker 1: wired their ignition coils in such a way that when 415 00:22:27,720 --> 00:22:32,160 Speaker 1: one fails, it will damage others and take the system down. 416 00:22:32,200 --> 00:22:34,880 Speaker 1: It's it's like a failure of a can data bus 417 00:22:34,880 --> 00:22:38,960 Speaker 1: system with computers where everything is tied together electrically and 418 00:22:39,000 --> 00:22:42,959 Speaker 1: it creates bigger issues. As crazy as crazy as this 419 00:22:43,040 --> 00:22:46,720 Speaker 1: sounds on a good running engine, but it's twelve years old, 420 00:22:47,600 --> 00:22:49,960 Speaker 1: I would be very particular and I would take a 421 00:22:50,000 --> 00:22:52,120 Speaker 1: hard look at the coils when the coils come out. 422 00:22:52,640 --> 00:22:55,680 Speaker 1: For the price of coils right now, and they're probably 423 00:22:55,720 --> 00:22:59,040 Speaker 1: a hundred a hundred and twenty dollars apiece, you're better 424 00:22:59,119 --> 00:23:03,679 Speaker 1: off replacing at least the three back coils to avoid 425 00:23:03,680 --> 00:23:07,320 Speaker 1: the problem later on again. Anything to avoid having to 426 00:23:07,400 --> 00:23:11,879 Speaker 1: take the intake planum off twice. That's that's the problem. 427 00:23:11,920 --> 00:23:15,640 Speaker 1: That's what you're trying to avoid, all right. And as 428 00:23:15,640 --> 00:23:18,000 Speaker 1: a suggestion, because you hear me talk about it, and 429 00:23:18,040 --> 00:23:20,280 Speaker 1: I use them in the shop all the time, den 430 00:23:20,320 --> 00:23:23,240 Speaker 1: so iridium t T spark plugs would be a wonderful choice. 431 00:23:24,240 --> 00:23:26,720 Speaker 1: The nice thing the nice thing about the iridium T 432 00:23:26,840 --> 00:23:29,240 Speaker 1: teas and there's a lot of things that's nice about them, 433 00:23:29,280 --> 00:23:31,320 Speaker 1: but one of the nice things about the iridium T 434 00:23:31,480 --> 00:23:36,240 Speaker 1: T s is the threads are pre lubricated, so they're 435 00:23:36,240 --> 00:23:39,280 Speaker 1: they're easier to come out in the next hundred thousand 436 00:23:39,280 --> 00:23:41,600 Speaker 1: miles should you have the car then, not to mention 437 00:23:41,640 --> 00:23:43,560 Speaker 1: the way they're made in the laser welding and all 438 00:23:43,600 --> 00:23:46,280 Speaker 1: the construction and all the advantages of iridium T T 439 00:23:46,520 --> 00:23:49,520 Speaker 1: s that they offer. Um, you can read actually more 440 00:23:49,560 --> 00:23:52,600 Speaker 1: about it iridium T T dot com. I'm sorry, dens 441 00:23:52,640 --> 00:23:57,159 Speaker 1: o t T. I'm sorry dens o t T dot com. Yeah. Um, 442 00:23:57,280 --> 00:24:00,200 Speaker 1: as a matter of fact, for the three coils, put 443 00:24:00,200 --> 00:24:02,439 Speaker 1: densils and put densil coils in it as well. But 444 00:24:02,520 --> 00:24:04,960 Speaker 1: dense o t T we'll talk about the spark plugs. 445 00:24:05,000 --> 00:24:07,720 Speaker 1: That's really the right way to do it. Listen, it's 446 00:24:07,760 --> 00:24:11,400 Speaker 1: not about how much money king is save what you're driving. 447 00:24:11,600 --> 00:24:15,679 Speaker 1: You're you're driving a bullet. That thing is pretty indestructible. Okay. 448 00:24:16,240 --> 00:24:19,080 Speaker 1: Spark plugs are the weak link valve cover gaskets for 449 00:24:19,160 --> 00:24:22,040 Speaker 1: the weak link. Sooner or later, ignition coils are going 450 00:24:22,080 --> 00:24:26,080 Speaker 1: to be the weak link. And I've learned from experience 451 00:24:26,200 --> 00:24:28,399 Speaker 1: that when I start to get a car with this 452 00:24:28,480 --> 00:24:31,200 Speaker 1: many miles in this age, I will start to group 453 00:24:31,240 --> 00:24:34,760 Speaker 1: things together because it's actually more beneficial to the customer's 454 00:24:34,800 --> 00:24:38,480 Speaker 1: pocketbook than it is trying to do them spread out 455 00:24:38,520 --> 00:24:40,720 Speaker 1: over the next fifty thous miles. That's when you're gonna 456 00:24:40,760 --> 00:24:42,280 Speaker 1: get aggravated and say I'm getting rid of the car. 457 00:24:42,280 --> 00:24:46,919 Speaker 1: It's costing me too much money. All right, Okay, so 458 00:24:46,960 --> 00:24:49,760 Speaker 1: I'll do a little homework and if you have any questions, 459 00:24:49,760 --> 00:24:51,119 Speaker 1: you know where to find me. Thanks John, you take 460 00:24:51,160 --> 00:24:53,080 Speaker 1: good care. Let's go over to Joseph Merritan in Connecticut 461 00:24:53,080 --> 00:24:55,520 Speaker 1: sixty eight muth think Joseph. Welcome to the car doctor, sir. 462 00:24:55,560 --> 00:24:58,960 Speaker 1: How can I help Hi? Thanks for taking You're welcome, 463 00:24:59,000 --> 00:25:01,359 Speaker 1: Thanks for being there. What's gonna I have a nine 464 00:25:02,400 --> 00:25:06,360 Speaker 1: Mustang convertable with a two eighty nine and it's been 465 00:25:06,400 --> 00:25:10,440 Speaker 1: boared out thirty over and has a mile cam for 466 00:25:10,640 --> 00:25:15,840 Speaker 1: battle with the mettle Rock Performer automatic and uh I 467 00:25:15,920 --> 00:25:17,840 Speaker 1: had air conditioning in it, and I took it out, 468 00:25:18,000 --> 00:25:21,119 Speaker 1: put it into my Ranchero and in the process, I 469 00:25:21,119 --> 00:25:24,880 Speaker 1: don't think I purged the the new heater core when 470 00:25:24,880 --> 00:25:28,200 Speaker 1: I put it in, and I blew the bottom radiator 471 00:25:28,240 --> 00:25:34,359 Speaker 1: host three times right off or a pump, and the 472 00:25:34,440 --> 00:25:38,080 Speaker 1: heads have been rebuilt at it's running fine now, and 473 00:25:38,119 --> 00:25:41,480 Speaker 1: I took the thermostat out because I'm running hot right now. 474 00:25:41,840 --> 00:25:46,320 Speaker 1: Without the thermostat, it's running at one eight and then 475 00:25:46,359 --> 00:25:49,480 Speaker 1: it goes up to about two oh five, kind of 476 00:25:49,520 --> 00:25:51,640 Speaker 1: like levels off there. But I got home right away 477 00:25:51,640 --> 00:25:54,959 Speaker 1: because I wasn't sure if it was gonna go any higher? 478 00:25:55,400 --> 00:25:58,359 Speaker 1: Are you still blowing the bottom radiator hose off? And 479 00:25:58,480 --> 00:26:00,520 Speaker 1: I finally got that to stay all right? What did 480 00:26:00,520 --> 00:26:03,520 Speaker 1: you do to get that to stay on? Well, I said, 481 00:26:03,560 --> 00:26:06,280 Speaker 1: I had to be done, and I had a feeling 482 00:26:06,280 --> 00:26:08,280 Speaker 1: that I was probably getting a little pleasure leak from 483 00:26:08,320 --> 00:26:12,280 Speaker 1: the heads since it overheated three times on me. All right, 484 00:26:12,840 --> 00:26:17,920 Speaker 1: So on the assumption dangerous word on family radio that there, 485 00:26:17,920 --> 00:26:22,120 Speaker 1: that there are no more combustion leaks into the cooling system, 486 00:26:22,200 --> 00:26:26,200 Speaker 1: all right, I'm so let's let's assume that. I mean, 487 00:26:26,240 --> 00:26:28,520 Speaker 1: if you wanted to check it, one of the easiest 488 00:26:28,560 --> 00:26:30,439 Speaker 1: things to do is take the radiator cap off and 489 00:26:30,440 --> 00:26:32,800 Speaker 1: crank it over. When it's cold one day, disabled the 490 00:26:32,840 --> 00:26:35,439 Speaker 1: ignition and crank it over. Does you know, have somebody 491 00:26:35,440 --> 00:26:38,160 Speaker 1: crank while you look inside the radiator. Don't look directly 492 00:26:38,160 --> 00:26:41,040 Speaker 1: in because you may get a bath. But if if 493 00:26:41,080 --> 00:26:43,920 Speaker 1: there's any movement of the cooling, if there's any bubbles, 494 00:26:44,040 --> 00:26:45,840 Speaker 1: if all of a sudden starts to puke a little 495 00:26:45,880 --> 00:26:49,040 Speaker 1: cooling at the top of the radiator, air is pumping cooling, 496 00:26:49,560 --> 00:26:51,760 Speaker 1: and you've still got a combustion leak. So that's that's 497 00:26:51,800 --> 00:26:54,480 Speaker 1: the simplest way. The other thing I will do is 498 00:26:54,560 --> 00:26:56,480 Speaker 1: I will bring a cylinder around on top, or I'll 499 00:26:56,480 --> 00:27:00,040 Speaker 1: back off all the rockers, especially on a months and 500 00:27:00,119 --> 00:27:02,879 Speaker 1: it's easy enough to do. And you know, fill the 501 00:27:02,920 --> 00:27:05,200 Speaker 1: cylinders and put shop air in the cylinder and look 502 00:27:05,240 --> 00:27:07,960 Speaker 1: for bubbles in the cooling. Two doesn't hold. So that 503 00:27:08,119 --> 00:27:10,520 Speaker 1: being said, we get over the Hey, we've got no 504 00:27:10,560 --> 00:27:13,120 Speaker 1: combustion leaks into the cooling system. I got a couple 505 00:27:13,200 --> 00:27:16,199 Speaker 1: of questions for you. The fan that's on this is 506 00:27:16,200 --> 00:27:20,040 Speaker 1: it the stock fan? No? I put the box with 507 00:27:20,119 --> 00:27:23,600 Speaker 1: the six blades, steel blades. Okay, a little more air 508 00:27:23,640 --> 00:27:26,040 Speaker 1: out there, Okay, how close to the radiator is the 509 00:27:26,040 --> 00:27:30,920 Speaker 1: fan stock position with the shroud on. It's about I'm 510 00:27:30,960 --> 00:27:35,520 Speaker 1: guessing three max. Okay, But you're running a shroud yes, 511 00:27:35,720 --> 00:27:38,520 Speaker 1: And and is that fan in the stock position or 512 00:27:38,560 --> 00:27:41,960 Speaker 1: have you changed it from what it was in the 513 00:27:42,000 --> 00:27:47,400 Speaker 1: stock position with the extension on the What about the pulleys, 514 00:27:47,400 --> 00:27:51,560 Speaker 1: the crank and the water pump pulley? Are they stock? Yes? Okay? 515 00:27:51,720 --> 00:27:53,679 Speaker 1: And the reason I asked the reason I asked that 516 00:27:53,800 --> 00:27:57,680 Speaker 1: is because you're you're looking for You're looking for you know, 517 00:27:57,720 --> 00:28:00,000 Speaker 1: you want to slow things down. The longer it sits 518 00:28:00,040 --> 00:28:02,479 Speaker 1: and goes through the radiator it takes to go through 519 00:28:02,520 --> 00:28:04,480 Speaker 1: the radiator will give off more heat, it has a 520 00:28:04,520 --> 00:28:07,040 Speaker 1: better chance to cool it down. For some reason, guys 521 00:28:07,040 --> 00:28:08,960 Speaker 1: start to think, hey, let's speed things up and move 522 00:28:08,960 --> 00:28:12,400 Speaker 1: it along faster. Um. I've actually seen cars over heat 523 00:28:12,400 --> 00:28:15,280 Speaker 1: and they run worse. So that being said, then what 524 00:28:15,400 --> 00:28:16,960 Speaker 1: kind of a radiator do you have? And this is 525 00:28:16,960 --> 00:28:20,919 Speaker 1: a stock radiator? Is it a replacement radiator? It's a 526 00:28:20,960 --> 00:28:29,120 Speaker 1: replacement three corps and I have a competition, uh distributor 527 00:28:29,200 --> 00:28:32,760 Speaker 1: and there electronic and I run it at the thirty 528 00:28:32,800 --> 00:28:40,240 Speaker 1: eight degrees advance advanced, still advanced at about so initial 529 00:28:40,280 --> 00:28:42,560 Speaker 1: timing is probably ten twelve degrees when you started up 530 00:28:42,600 --> 00:28:47,240 Speaker 1: at six pm. No, not even that. It's about two okay, 531 00:28:47,440 --> 00:28:51,880 Speaker 1: and then it advances, yet the top end goes higher 532 00:28:52,240 --> 00:28:56,440 Speaker 1: a boy. So what I'm wondering is do you happen 533 00:28:56,480 --> 00:28:58,360 Speaker 1: to have the older Do you have the old original 534 00:28:58,480 --> 00:29:00,520 Speaker 1: radiator around? Or was it always a three row? No? 535 00:29:00,680 --> 00:29:05,480 Speaker 1: It was originally a two row, wasn't it? Okay? So 536 00:29:05,600 --> 00:29:07,920 Speaker 1: do you have the three And when I got the 537 00:29:07,960 --> 00:29:09,840 Speaker 1: air conditioning, you know I want to get a little 538 00:29:09,880 --> 00:29:13,120 Speaker 1: better coin. Okay, So when you do you still have 539 00:29:13,160 --> 00:29:16,120 Speaker 1: the two row radiator? Yes? I do. Can I tell 540 00:29:16,160 --> 00:29:19,160 Speaker 1: you to do something crazy? Put the too, put the 541 00:29:19,160 --> 00:29:22,880 Speaker 1: two row in it, and I'll tell you why. I've 542 00:29:22,960 --> 00:29:26,080 Speaker 1: been down this road where the three rows I don't 543 00:29:26,120 --> 00:29:29,680 Speaker 1: know if it's the capacity or the ability to it's 544 00:29:29,760 --> 00:29:32,320 Speaker 1: just thicker and it doesn't give off the heat is quickly. 545 00:29:32,640 --> 00:29:35,800 Speaker 1: But I've had experience on cars where three rows actually 546 00:29:35,840 --> 00:29:39,600 Speaker 1: cause a heat increase, not decrease. And in some cases 547 00:29:39,680 --> 00:29:42,760 Speaker 1: capacity isn't everything. If you try the two row and 548 00:29:42,800 --> 00:29:45,840 Speaker 1: you get the exact same results, that eliminates it's not 549 00:29:45,880 --> 00:29:49,200 Speaker 1: the radiator, And that eliminates that it's not it's it's 550 00:29:49,280 --> 00:29:51,640 Speaker 1: it's not a capacity issue, and then give me a 551 00:29:51,640 --> 00:29:54,760 Speaker 1: call back and we'll talk again. Okay, all right, sir, 552 00:29:55,480 --> 00:29:57,560 Speaker 1: I'm willing to try anything. Thanks so much. Let me 553 00:29:57,600 --> 00:30:00,680 Speaker 1: know what happens. I'm here for you. We'll figure it out. Okay, 554 00:30:00,920 --> 00:30:02,840 Speaker 1: you're welcome, Joe. You have a good rest of the afternoon. 555 00:30:02,960 --> 00:30:06,080 Speaker 1: Eight five five five zero zero. Ronny in the Car Doctor, 556 00:30:06,160 --> 00:30:07,920 Speaker 1: right your service, pick up the phone, give me a call. 557 00:30:08,200 --> 00:30:37,160 Speaker 1: I'll see you right after this in the summer time 558 00:30:37,400 --> 00:30:39,959 Speaker 1: when when it was high you can stretch right now. 559 00:30:42,160 --> 00:30:46,240 Speaker 1: Welcome back Rondini and the Car Doctor. Um. Interesting email 560 00:30:46,440 --> 00:30:48,200 Speaker 1: I received from a gentleman by the first name of 561 00:30:48,320 --> 00:30:50,560 Speaker 1: Lance Uh in response to some of the things we 562 00:30:50,600 --> 00:30:52,120 Speaker 1: talked about here on the radio show. Ron I was 563 00:30:52,120 --> 00:30:54,280 Speaker 1: listening to your most recent podcast and your comments about 564 00:30:54,280 --> 00:30:56,840 Speaker 1: how car companies are making it more difficult for invert 565 00:30:56,840 --> 00:30:59,360 Speaker 1: repair shops, and it was spot on comment. But the 566 00:30:59,360 --> 00:31:01,880 Speaker 1: problems affect other industries too, and I thought this is interesting. 567 00:31:02,000 --> 00:31:04,440 Speaker 1: I'm a photographer and recently the big camera companies have 568 00:31:04,480 --> 00:31:08,320 Speaker 1: stopped selling parts independent repairment. Independent camera repairment are closing up, 569 00:31:08,520 --> 00:31:10,720 Speaker 1: and obviously you can't fix cameras without parts, and their 570 00:31:10,800 --> 00:31:14,400 Speaker 1: limited parts coming in from China, so which are refurbished 571 00:31:14,440 --> 00:31:18,360 Speaker 1: or new third party quality unsure Rolex the watch company, 572 00:31:18,360 --> 00:31:21,040 Speaker 1: listen to this. Rolex the watch company tried something similar 573 00:31:21,080 --> 00:31:23,560 Speaker 1: in the early eighties. In the sixties, if you wanted 574 00:31:23,600 --> 00:31:26,120 Speaker 1: to be certified to work on role X watches, you 575 00:31:26,160 --> 00:31:29,520 Speaker 1: went to Rolex school and learned their ways, took a test, 576 00:31:29,560 --> 00:31:32,400 Speaker 1: and if you passed, you became certified and we're given 577 00:31:32,440 --> 00:31:34,800 Speaker 1: a Rolex parts account. This worked out well until Rolex 578 00:31:34,840 --> 00:31:37,200 Speaker 1: realized if only they did the repairs, they can make 579 00:31:37,200 --> 00:31:39,200 Speaker 1: more money, so they brought back old stock and closed 580 00:31:39,200 --> 00:31:41,920 Speaker 1: that accounts. The independent watchmakers couldn't service role Excellence. They 581 00:31:41,920 --> 00:31:44,760 Speaker 1: had parts on hand, Rolex got what they wanted. In fact, 582 00:31:44,840 --> 00:31:47,240 Speaker 1: they were overwhelmed with the amount of repairs that they had. 583 00:31:47,560 --> 00:31:50,640 Speaker 1: Turnaround time to repair a Rolex watch went from two 584 00:31:50,680 --> 00:31:53,760 Speaker 1: weeks two months. Things got so bad that with certain 585 00:31:53,760 --> 00:31:55,680 Speaker 1: watches over ten years old, they were deemed too old 586 00:31:55,720 --> 00:31:58,920 Speaker 1: for repair. Could you imagine spending over a watching ten 587 00:31:59,000 --> 00:32:00,800 Speaker 1: years later you send it in for service Controld it's 588 00:32:00,840 --> 00:32:03,320 Speaker 1: too old by a new model that didn't go over well. 589 00:32:03,480 --> 00:32:06,040 Speaker 1: Here's the twist. The parts manufacturers got together and started 590 00:32:06,040 --> 00:32:09,080 Speaker 1: selling parts of the independence. Only the parts they didn't 591 00:32:09,120 --> 00:32:12,400 Speaker 1: have didn't have Rolelex logo on them. So you kind 592 00:32:12,400 --> 00:32:17,400 Speaker 1: of wonder with regards to the automotive world, what's gonna 593 00:32:17,440 --> 00:32:21,479 Speaker 1: happen in the day that is not working? I don't care. 594 00:32:21,640 --> 00:32:25,480 Speaker 1: You're supposed to wear the proper Hang on a I 595 00:32:25,480 --> 00:32:34,000 Speaker 1: gotta settle T shirt. Hello?

How can I get one? 607 00:33:00,480 --> 00:33:03,960 Speaker 1: So I won't I won't get the front. Well, you 608 00:33:04,000 --> 00:33:06,640 Speaker 1: could probably pay attention to eBay. If you watch eBay, 609 00:33:06,640 --> 00:33:08,360 Speaker 1: you know we're selling them out on eBay. Not to 610 00:33:08,360 --> 00:33:10,560 Speaker 1: take this a commercial, but I guess we're gonna um 611 00:33:10,600 --> 00:33:13,040 Speaker 1: if you if you get out to eBay, eBay dot com, 612 00:33:13,040 --> 00:33:14,880 Speaker 1: go to run an any in the Car doctor.

It's 617 00:33:24,440 --> 00:33:26,320 Speaker 1: it's it's like the role X watch thing. It gets 618 00:33:26,320 --> 00:33:29,560 Speaker 1: confusing after a while. So if everybody has some patience, 619 00:33:29,560 --> 00:33:31,680 Speaker 1: we'll get double X back in stock. But in the meantime, 620 00:33:31,720 --> 00:33:34,880 Speaker 1: if anybody needs small, medium, large, extra, larger, triple X, 621 00:33:35,080 --> 00:33:36,920 Speaker 1: I have triple X.

I put 650 00:35:09,880 --> 00:35:11,920 Speaker 1: a post up on Facebook this week and I realized 651 00:35:11,960 --> 00:35:15,160 Speaker 1: not everybody is Facebook friendly, so to speak. And the 652 00:35:15,200 --> 00:35:18,920 Speaker 1: conversation was about Father's Day. And what started this was 653 00:35:18,960 --> 00:35:22,080 Speaker 1: the folks at O'Riley.
