1
00:00:04,880 --> 00:00:06,960
Speaker 1: Ron Anian, you should be able to ground that like

2
00:00:07,080 --> 00:00:09,160
Speaker 1: green wire. All right, we should jump forr that to

3
00:00:09,240 --> 00:00:23,600
Speaker 1: ground and the fuel pump should run. The car Doctor,

4
00:00:23,760 --> 00:00:26,479
Speaker 1: there's a fourth sensor system. Okay, the bottom two that

5
00:00:26,520 --> 00:00:29,440
Speaker 1: you can't see, and you're really in a horrible, ugly place,

6
00:00:29,720 --> 00:00:31,760
Speaker 1: and the top two they're well, they're not much better

7
00:00:31,800 --> 00:00:34,360
Speaker 1: to get to either. Welcome to the radio home of

26
00:01:32,280 --> 00:01:35,720
Speaker 1: in and talk to Phil Glastonbury, Connecticut, Dodge ram and

27
00:01:35,800 --> 00:01:38,160
Speaker 1: some some problems here. Yes, Phil, how can I help you?

28
00:01:38,200 --> 00:01:41,440
Speaker 1: Wrong with the car Doctor? Hey Graham, I'm glad to

29
00:01:41,480 --> 00:01:44,160
Speaker 1: talk to you. UM, here's what I got go, Here's

30
00:01:44,160 --> 00:01:46,840
Speaker 1: what I got going on. UM. I was kind of

31
00:01:46,880 --> 00:01:50,640
Speaker 1: I had a few issues with the truck. UM. He

32
00:01:50,760 --> 00:01:53,480
Speaker 1: was having a problem where I would come go somewhere,

33
00:01:54,480 --> 00:01:57,200
Speaker 1: UM after the engine warmed up and then it would

34
00:01:57,240 --> 00:02:00,400
Speaker 1: sit for half hour an hour and then wouldn't I

35
00:02:00,440 --> 00:02:03,800
Speaker 1: wouldn't start it with crank but no fire, no start.

36
00:02:04,840 --> 00:02:07,800
Speaker 1: UM had a had an engine code PISO three three

37
00:02:08,160 --> 00:02:16,920
Speaker 1: six UM for the crank chef position sensor. It's it's

38
00:02:16,960 --> 00:02:22,560
Speaker 1: a defel and UM. Basically, you know, I did a

39
00:02:22,600 --> 00:02:24,960
Speaker 1: lot of research trying to figure out what might be

40
00:02:24,960 --> 00:02:27,480
Speaker 1: coming a problem right because it was also having an

41
00:02:27,480 --> 00:02:29,560
Speaker 1: issue where the lift pump wasn't coming on at the

42
00:02:29,600 --> 00:02:33,160
Speaker 1: times that it would crank and not start. Because I

43
00:02:33,160 --> 00:02:35,160
Speaker 1: can hear the lift pump. It's you know, it's not

44
00:02:35,320 --> 00:02:40,320
Speaker 1: enough to hear um day way. But I came to

45
00:02:40,560 --> 00:02:44,280
Speaker 1: was people that have the same problem changed the crank

46
00:02:44,320 --> 00:02:47,560
Speaker 1: chef position sensor and that solved it. Um. So I'm

47
00:02:47,600 --> 00:02:50,000
Speaker 1: in the middle of the repair. I took the starter

48
00:02:50,080 --> 00:02:53,600
Speaker 1: out so I could get to that, to that sensor. Um.

49
00:02:53,680 --> 00:02:57,200
Speaker 1: It has a ten millimeter hex head bolt holds it

50
00:02:57,240 --> 00:03:01,880
Speaker 1: into the engine block there, metal mount and bracket round

51
00:03:01,919 --> 00:03:08,560
Speaker 1: it off that bolt. Wow, get there? Yeah? Um? Was

52
00:03:08,600 --> 00:03:10,400
Speaker 1: it was it heavy? That's the real problem that I'm

53
00:03:10,440 --> 00:03:16,320
Speaker 1: at right now. YEA, heavily heavily rusted. It doesn't really no,

54
00:03:16,520 --> 00:03:19,519
Speaker 1: not really, it's it's real greasy if anything. You know,

55
00:03:19,600 --> 00:03:22,919
Speaker 1: I've offered to oil and grime around my engine blocking.

56
00:03:23,160 --> 00:03:25,400
Speaker 1: What what what kind of access do you have to it?

57
00:03:25,480 --> 00:03:27,919
Speaker 1: Could you get? Could you get an exhaust cut off

58
00:03:27,960 --> 00:03:30,640
Speaker 1: tool up there and cut a slot in it and

59
00:03:30,639 --> 00:03:34,320
Speaker 1: and make it into like a straight play screwdriver slot

60
00:03:36,120 --> 00:03:41,080
Speaker 1: mm hmm um or or or I mean I'm sure

61
00:03:41,120 --> 00:03:44,840
Speaker 1: you've gone the route of you know, trying to cross

62
00:03:44,920 --> 00:03:47,600
Speaker 1: between the something metric and the something standard threat and

63
00:03:47,640 --> 00:03:50,560
Speaker 1: try to uh, you know, the next size down socket

64
00:03:50,560 --> 00:03:53,560
Speaker 1: and a standard threat or whatever. It's kind of rounded

65
00:03:53,600 --> 00:03:56,400
Speaker 1: itself off to whether it's seven six, three eight or

66
00:03:56,440 --> 00:04:00,520
Speaker 1: something smaller. Um, you know, have you tried that if

67
00:04:00,520 --> 00:04:02,760
Speaker 1: you tried finding a socket that's just a little tighter

68
00:04:02,760 --> 00:04:05,440
Speaker 1: and pounding it on and seeing you can break it loose,

69
00:04:06,760 --> 00:04:11,040
Speaker 1: I haven't, you know? And just as a suggested, if

70
00:04:11,040 --> 00:04:14,880
Speaker 1: you get something to fit, just try snugging it a

71
00:04:14,960 --> 00:04:17,520
Speaker 1: little bit, just give it a little you know, in

72
00:04:17,560 --> 00:04:20,560
Speaker 1: the wrong direction, just to try and break the tension loose,

73
00:04:21,120 --> 00:04:23,599
Speaker 1: and then try spinning it out. Try going back the

74
00:04:23,640 --> 00:04:26,800
Speaker 1: other way and spinning it out. You know. They've also

75
00:04:26,960 --> 00:04:30,400
Speaker 1: there are also some what I believe they're called turbo sockets,

76
00:04:30,920 --> 00:04:34,360
Speaker 1: which is a socket with little teeth in it that

77
00:04:34,440 --> 00:04:37,279
Speaker 1: you know, they've got least these fluted teeth fluted it's

78
00:04:37,320 --> 00:04:40,640
Speaker 1: it's like a reverse twist drill, but in a socket form,

79
00:04:40,680 --> 00:04:43,400
Speaker 1: so to speak, that will grab the shoulders of the

80
00:04:43,520 --> 00:04:46,960
Speaker 1: rounded bolt and walk it out that way. I'm sure

81
00:04:46,960 --> 00:04:49,679
Speaker 1: they're available any any tool truck or any tool store.

82
00:04:50,320 --> 00:04:52,800
Speaker 1: You know, those work well. And then you know the

83
00:04:52,880 --> 00:04:55,520
Speaker 1: last digit if if if I've got it where I

84
00:04:55,520 --> 00:04:57,960
Speaker 1: can't get anything to grip at all, and I'm in

85
00:04:58,000 --> 00:05:00,159
Speaker 1: a real tight spot, what else can I make that

86
00:05:00,279 --> 00:05:04,240
Speaker 1: into My fail safe is I will try to take UM,

87
00:05:04,279 --> 00:05:08,400
Speaker 1: either a file, a hacksaw blade something and cut a

88
00:05:08,520 --> 00:05:11,640
Speaker 1: slot in the bolt or in the rounded stub, whatever

89
00:05:11,680 --> 00:05:14,239
Speaker 1: I'm dealing with at this point, Just cut a slot

90
00:05:14,240 --> 00:05:16,640
Speaker 1: in it, and you know, can I get a you know,

91
00:05:16,720 --> 00:05:19,080
Speaker 1: match it to the size of a good sized screwdriver

92
00:05:19,800 --> 00:05:23,400
Speaker 1: and you know, drive it out that way and you know,

93
00:05:23,440 --> 00:05:26,440
Speaker 1: break it loose with that. UM. One last thought if

94
00:05:26,480 --> 00:05:29,600
Speaker 1: you do make it into a screwdriver and you're you're

95
00:05:29,640 --> 00:05:31,200
Speaker 1: kind of running out of options, do you know what

96
00:05:31,200 --> 00:05:36,320
Speaker 1: an impact driver is? A handheld impact driver? UM. You know,

97
00:05:36,360 --> 00:05:38,120
Speaker 1: like we we used to take set screws off a

98
00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:40,400
Speaker 1: break rotors. Uh. You know, if you can put a

99
00:05:40,440 --> 00:05:43,800
Speaker 1: straight bit sock it in that handheld impact driver and

100
00:05:43,839 --> 00:05:45,839
Speaker 1: give it a pop with a hammer, it'll give it

101
00:05:45,920 --> 00:05:48,080
Speaker 1: enough of a shock that you know, as you pop

102
00:05:48,120 --> 00:05:50,680
Speaker 1: it in, UM, it'll it'll push the head of that

103
00:05:50,760 --> 00:05:53,159
Speaker 1: in and you know it'll give it an automatic twist

104
00:05:53,160 --> 00:05:55,680
Speaker 1: on the cam mechanism of the impact driver, and that

105
00:05:55,760 --> 00:05:58,720
Speaker 1: might break it loose as well. So you know, I

106
00:05:58,760 --> 00:06:01,840
Speaker 1: I just think for whatever reason, the head of the

107
00:06:01,880 --> 00:06:04,599
Speaker 1: bolt is weather around it off and as you say

108
00:06:04,640 --> 00:06:08,039
Speaker 1: it's it's it's so oily and greasy. It sounds like

109
00:06:08,040 --> 00:06:11,279
Speaker 1: it's pre lubricated, and it shouldn't really be an issue.

110
00:06:11,800 --> 00:06:14,400
Speaker 1: Um uh you know, but that's that's how I would

111
00:06:14,400 --> 00:06:17,120
Speaker 1: approach it. And yeah, you're right, it's it's it's likely

112
00:06:17,600 --> 00:06:20,479
Speaker 1: a crank censor. There was a way to check it. Um.

113
00:06:20,520 --> 00:06:23,280
Speaker 1: I think it was something on the orders of uh um,

114
00:06:23,880 --> 00:06:26,440
Speaker 1: you know, using the scope, you're looking at pulse signal.

115
00:06:26,560 --> 00:06:32,040
Speaker 1: But a lot of cases it's it's yeah, it's crank,

116
00:06:32,080 --> 00:06:35,159
Speaker 1: it's crank censor, or it's uh, it's wiring, So just

117
00:06:35,279 --> 00:06:38,240
Speaker 1: verify that as well, and um, you should be okay.

118
00:06:38,279 --> 00:06:39,680
Speaker 1: But those are my tips. That's what I would do

119
00:06:39,720 --> 00:06:40,960
Speaker 1: if we were in the shop, That's what i'd be

120
00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:44,760
Speaker 1: having a conversation about. All right, sir, all right, listen

121
00:06:44,920 --> 00:06:46,840
Speaker 1: if you if you really get in a jam, take

122
00:06:46,880 --> 00:06:50,080
Speaker 1: a picture of what you're working on and shoot me

123
00:06:50,080 --> 00:06:52,400
Speaker 1: an email and uh, I'll see if I got any

124
00:06:52,440 --> 00:06:55,200
Speaker 1: other thoughts. But I would I would not hesitate to

125
00:06:55,440 --> 00:06:56,840
Speaker 1: you know, maybe go out and by a set of

126
00:06:56,880 --> 00:06:59,760
Speaker 1: turbo sockets. They're cheap enough and they'll help you out

127
00:06:59,839 --> 00:07:01,280
Speaker 1: some we're down the road and it's just gonna be

128
00:07:01,320 --> 00:07:07,000
Speaker 1: a three drive subtle fit, whatever ratchet or extension you got, right, Okay,

129
00:07:07,200 --> 00:07:09,440
Speaker 1: so that's it, all right, Phil, Good luck to you baby.

130
00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:12,520
Speaker 1: All right, thank You're very welcome. Good look, let's get

131
00:07:12,560 --> 00:07:14,800
Speaker 1: over and talk to Barry. Sit your sides. California a

132
00:07:14,960 --> 00:07:17,680
Speaker 1: Chrysler and some problems here with the four oh Barry.

133
00:07:17,680 --> 00:07:19,800
Speaker 1: Welcome to the car doctor. How can I help? I

134
00:07:19,960 --> 00:07:24,880
Speaker 1: thank you so much for taking my cart. I guess

135
00:07:24,880 --> 00:07:27,160
Speaker 1: you've got some of the information. Yeah, it's a four

136
00:07:27,240 --> 00:07:31,600
Speaker 1: point oh Leader motor. And what body what body style

137
00:07:31,680 --> 00:07:35,560
Speaker 1: is this in? It's it's the big limited edition to

138
00:07:35,680 --> 00:07:38,120
Speaker 1: three seats with every bill and whistle. Looks like a

139
00:07:38,120 --> 00:07:43,240
Speaker 1: spaceship in there. Okay, Um the three this is a

140
00:07:43,480 --> 00:07:47,240
Speaker 1: this is a three hundred three D limited. No, it's

141
00:07:47,320 --> 00:07:51,800
Speaker 1: it's a four point oh Leader motor. Okay, what model

142
00:07:51,960 --> 00:07:58,400
Speaker 1: Chrysler is this though? Um, it's the limited edition town

143
00:07:58,480 --> 00:08:02,600
Speaker 1: the Country. It's a and okay right, yes, okay, god sorry,

144
00:08:02,600 --> 00:08:05,480
Speaker 1: that's okay. Um, you know, because they change a little

145
00:08:05,520 --> 00:08:08,040
Speaker 1: bit from model to model, and we're we're dealing with

146
00:08:08,040 --> 00:08:11,400
Speaker 1: the what it dies at? Idle? What you do? You

147
00:08:11,480 --> 00:08:14,720
Speaker 1: started up and you get going to about twenty eight

148
00:08:14,720 --> 00:08:17,840
Speaker 1: miles now and it starts surging. And then after you

149
00:08:17,920 --> 00:08:20,760
Speaker 1: go a little further than it wants, it wants to die.

150
00:08:20,800 --> 00:08:23,320
Speaker 1: It'll die on a curve and I thought that's what

151
00:08:23,360 --> 00:08:27,920
Speaker 1: it was, but then it starts dying on the straightaway.

152
00:08:27,960 --> 00:08:31,440
Speaker 1: And uh, like we said, we've changed the fuel pump

153
00:08:31,560 --> 00:08:35,439
Speaker 1: like you meant, the camp center, the crank center, I mean,

154
00:08:35,840 --> 00:08:39,200
Speaker 1: everything's been changed on it. But um, and it throws

155
00:08:39,280 --> 00:08:44,320
Speaker 1: no codes whatsoever. All right, So has anybody have you?

156
00:08:44,520 --> 00:08:46,520
Speaker 1: Have you been able to hook up a scan tool

157
00:08:46,559 --> 00:08:49,400
Speaker 1: and take it for a ride when it dies? Yes, sir,

158
00:08:49,679 --> 00:08:52,920
Speaker 1: what I took to the Chrysler garage in Rosoe, California,

159
00:08:52,960 --> 00:08:57,040
Speaker 1: which is east for me, about fifteen miles and they

160
00:08:57,400 --> 00:08:59,200
Speaker 1: the guy put it on the scope and it went

161
00:08:59,240 --> 00:09:02,600
Speaker 1: through all of checks and showed nothing. Everything was in

162
00:09:02,760 --> 00:09:06,280
Speaker 1: order on that scanning. I bet you this car, I

163
00:09:06,320 --> 00:09:08,480
Speaker 1: bet it sounds like this car is shutting down the

164
00:09:08,559 --> 00:09:12,360
Speaker 1: can bus. You know, when he scans this for fauld codes,

165
00:09:12,400 --> 00:09:16,640
Speaker 1: do you know is he looking at just the PCM

166
00:09:16,679 --> 00:09:21,280
Speaker 1: cider is he doing a full vehicle scan for fault codes? Well?

167
00:09:21,320 --> 00:09:25,240
Speaker 1: You know, UM, I can't really tell you that. Um

168
00:09:25,360 --> 00:09:27,240
Speaker 1: he said he did it he did a full scan

169
00:09:27,360 --> 00:09:29,280
Speaker 1: on it. There's the words that came back to me

170
00:09:29,840 --> 00:09:31,320
Speaker 1: that he took it through every he had it for

171
00:09:31,360 --> 00:09:33,920
Speaker 1: like forty five minutes. He went through every procedure and

172
00:09:33,960 --> 00:09:36,760
Speaker 1: everything comes up green. But the procedure you're talking about,

173
00:09:37,240 --> 00:09:40,960
Speaker 1: he never mentioned to me. Okay, because I'm I'm questioning,

174
00:09:42,080 --> 00:09:44,439
Speaker 1: and let me ask you this, what made him decide

175
00:09:44,480 --> 00:09:46,520
Speaker 1: to put a fuel pump in it? Are we throwing

176
00:09:46,600 --> 00:09:51,600
Speaker 1: It sounds like we're throwing darts, even to the head, right,

177
00:09:52,040 --> 00:09:54,440
Speaker 1: That's exactly. We threw a lot of darks, four darts,

178
00:09:54,440 --> 00:09:56,040
Speaker 1: and just with all of them. It sounds like it

179
00:09:56,040 --> 00:09:58,120
Speaker 1: sounds like we spent fift at the two grand and

180
00:09:58,160 --> 00:10:02,720
Speaker 1: we're still throwing darts at the board. Yeah, exactly, And

181
00:10:02,800 --> 00:10:05,880
Speaker 1: that's why go ahead. Yeah, yeah, I'm just I'm sitting

182
00:10:05,880 --> 00:10:07,360
Speaker 1: here thinking. I'll tell you what. I gotta pull over

183
00:10:07,400 --> 00:10:10,120
Speaker 1: and take a pause, Barry, don't go anywhere. Let me

184
00:10:10,240 --> 00:10:11,560
Speaker 1: let me come back to you at this. Let me

185
00:10:11,640 --> 00:10:13,560
Speaker 1: let me recover my breath here because this is like

186
00:10:14,960 --> 00:10:17,719
Speaker 1: um um, let me let me do that. Let me

187
00:10:17,760 --> 00:10:19,240
Speaker 1: pull over, take a pause, Barry. I'll be right back.

188
00:10:19,240 --> 00:10:20,880
Speaker 1: Everybody else, I'll be right back. I'm wanting any of

189
00:10:20,880 --> 00:10:26,199
Speaker 1: the car doctor don't go away, welcome back. Weren't any

190
00:10:26,240 --> 00:10:29,800
Speaker 1: of the car DOCTO zero on the phone with Barry

191
00:10:29,840 --> 00:10:33,360
Speaker 1: from City Sized, California. Barry, you're still there, sir, Yes, sir,

192
00:10:33,440 --> 00:10:37,520
Speaker 1: I am so for you regarding your O A Christler

193
00:10:37,559 --> 00:10:39,480
Speaker 1: Town and Country with a four oh and the intermittent

194
00:10:39,520 --> 00:10:42,000
Speaker 1: stole and cutting out thirty miles an hour. So at

195
00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:43,920
Speaker 1: this point they've done They've done a fuel pump, they

196
00:10:43,920 --> 00:10:45,640
Speaker 1: did a crank at cam censor. What else are they

197
00:10:45,640 --> 00:10:50,480
Speaker 1: put in the car? Uh? That's just so for the

198
00:10:50,559 --> 00:10:55,800
Speaker 1: field pomp cam crank and the uh the other censor

199
00:10:55,880 --> 00:10:59,839
Speaker 1: throttle presenting censor. Yes, okay, and that did they put

200
00:10:59,840 --> 00:11:03,280
Speaker 1: a throttle posion centsor they put a throttle body on it? No,

201
00:11:03,520 --> 00:11:05,280
Speaker 1: just the center of the throttle body is not And

202
00:11:05,280 --> 00:11:07,719
Speaker 1: that's one thing I thought about two doctors. Maybe it

203
00:11:07,800 --> 00:11:10,839
Speaker 1: might be that throttle body. I've come across that before. Well,

204
00:11:11,040 --> 00:11:15,480
Speaker 1: but where's the diagnosis here? I'm not you know, did

205
00:11:15,480 --> 00:11:17,960
Speaker 1: they charge you a formal diagnosis? There was this forty

206
00:11:18,000 --> 00:11:20,000
Speaker 1: five minutes of code scanning. They said, we can't find

207
00:11:20,000 --> 00:11:22,520
Speaker 1: anything wrong. We're gonna start throwing darts at it. And

208
00:11:22,720 --> 00:11:25,640
Speaker 1: they they they charged me a hundred and sixty dollars

209
00:11:25,640 --> 00:11:28,959
Speaker 1: at the CHRISTI and they gave me. I said, you're

210
00:11:28,960 --> 00:11:32,000
Speaker 1: gonna charge me for giving me no answer and someone

211
00:11:32,040 --> 00:11:34,080
Speaker 1: and so forth, and they said, well, you know that's it.

212
00:11:34,120 --> 00:11:35,920
Speaker 1: And I said, where's your scan report? I mean, you've

213
00:11:35,920 --> 00:11:39,440
Speaker 1: got something you can show me and they said no.

214
00:11:39,760 --> 00:11:43,000
Speaker 1: And uh so I left there with throwing darts at it.

215
00:11:43,760 --> 00:11:45,960
Speaker 1: So who did the fuel pump, cam crank and the

216
00:11:45,960 --> 00:11:50,800
Speaker 1: rest of it? I gotta I gotta mechanic here in

217
00:11:51,120 --> 00:11:56,520
Speaker 1: uh Roth in California, and uh we you know, went

218
00:11:56,640 --> 00:12:00,600
Speaker 1: went about it like that and uh and with my idea.

219
00:12:00,800 --> 00:12:03,560
Speaker 1: I mean we talked it over and we said, well maybe,

220
00:12:03,960 --> 00:12:05,319
Speaker 1: but the last thing we put in here and that,

221
00:12:05,400 --> 00:12:09,600
Speaker 1: but just a week ago, was the fuel pump. All right,

222
00:12:10,160 --> 00:12:12,160
Speaker 1: So here's the part with the cheapest and went to

223
00:12:12,240 --> 00:12:15,360
Speaker 1: the expenses, sir, here's here's the deal, bib. All right,

224
00:12:15,640 --> 00:12:19,760
Speaker 1: you've got to forget what you've done, because it sounds

225
00:12:19,760 --> 00:12:23,400
Speaker 1: like what you've done is all wrong, all right, whether

226
00:12:23,520 --> 00:12:25,920
Speaker 1: whether it be the Chrysler guy, the Independent guy and

227
00:12:25,920 --> 00:12:27,880
Speaker 1: everybody in between. I don't want to beat anybody up,

228
00:12:27,920 --> 00:12:32,200
Speaker 1: but sometimes in a diagnosis, if you can't prove what's wrong.

229
00:12:32,720 --> 00:12:35,640
Speaker 1: You've got to prove what's right. All right, You've got

230
00:12:35,640 --> 00:12:38,240
Speaker 1: to eliminate the obvious. You've got to make an argument

231
00:12:38,280 --> 00:12:42,120
Speaker 1: for it. And I'll sit there myself and say, Okay,

232
00:12:42,200 --> 00:12:45,280
Speaker 1: it's going to be X. How do I prove it?

233
00:12:45,320 --> 00:12:46,960
Speaker 1: How do I prove its X? How can I be

234
00:12:47,040 --> 00:12:49,200
Speaker 1: sure it's X? And if it's not X, where would

235
00:12:49,240 --> 00:12:52,160
Speaker 1: I look next? When I'm dealing with a hardcore diagnosis

236
00:12:52,240 --> 00:12:54,480
Speaker 1: like this, I go through this each and every time.

237
00:12:55,080 --> 00:12:59,320
Speaker 1: It takes time. There's no quick answers. For example, all right,

238
00:12:59,400 --> 00:13:03,400
Speaker 1: there's a cry Bysler Chrysler PCMs. It's a known fact.

239
00:13:03,440 --> 00:13:06,080
Speaker 1: They've got a lot of problems. And I'm not saying

240
00:13:06,120 --> 00:13:09,120
Speaker 1: it's a PCM, Barry, let me preface this conversation right

241
00:13:09,160 --> 00:13:12,400
Speaker 1: off the bat. I'm not saying it is a bad PCM.

242
00:13:12,440 --> 00:13:16,679
Speaker 1: But Chrysler PCMs, for example, have have known issues with

243
00:13:16,880 --> 00:13:21,160
Speaker 1: intermittent open or stuck closed transistor drivers for for the

244
00:13:21,160 --> 00:13:24,760
Speaker 1: throttle control that'll make that car cut out, shut off, stall.

245
00:13:25,200 --> 00:13:28,560
Speaker 1: You'll you'll think, you'll think all day long that you

246
00:13:28,600 --> 00:13:30,319
Speaker 1: know it's it's one of the other four things you've

247
00:13:30,400 --> 00:13:33,280
Speaker 1: changed or something else, and it's a PCM problem that

248
00:13:33,320 --> 00:13:37,520
Speaker 1: happens so fast that it's it's very difficult to diagnose,

249
00:13:37,920 --> 00:13:40,120
Speaker 1: and the only way to prove that it's that would

250
00:13:40,160 --> 00:13:42,960
Speaker 1: be to to diagnose against everything else. And sometimes you

251
00:13:43,000 --> 00:13:45,760
Speaker 1: have to sit there and hook up ALAP scope, go

252
00:13:45,840 --> 00:13:48,640
Speaker 1: down the road, watch watch the cam and the crank

253
00:13:48,720 --> 00:13:52,920
Speaker 1: censors on the scope and see what's going on. And

254
00:13:53,200 --> 00:13:56,120
Speaker 1: you know when the car cuts out? What the cam

255
00:13:56,120 --> 00:13:58,679
Speaker 1: in the crank censor? Do you know? How? Did how

256
00:13:58,679 --> 00:14:01,040
Speaker 1: did they miss beehave? Did they miss behave? Did the

257
00:14:01,080 --> 00:14:04,840
Speaker 1: PCM lose power? And ground? Is it's something related to

258
00:14:04,880 --> 00:14:08,040
Speaker 1: the flex of the wiring harness? Is something pulling on

259
00:14:08,120 --> 00:14:09,839
Speaker 1: at the load of the engine pulling on a part

260
00:14:09,880 --> 00:14:12,520
Speaker 1: of the harness that's created a break in the harness.

261
00:14:12,559 --> 00:14:15,439
Speaker 1: That's that's possibly causing the vehicle to shut off. Let

262
00:14:15,440 --> 00:14:17,240
Speaker 1: me ask you this as the car you've owned, the

263
00:14:17,280 --> 00:14:20,720
Speaker 1: Carson's New No, I've just had it a year and

264
00:14:20,800 --> 00:14:23,240
Speaker 1: I must tell you I took a trip up to

265
00:14:23,480 --> 00:14:27,200
Speaker 1: you talk with two miles on it and it ran great.

266
00:14:27,360 --> 00:14:31,360
Speaker 1: I mean, so now we've got these situations going on.

267
00:14:31,560 --> 00:14:34,760
Speaker 1: Any any to your knowledge, to your knowledge, has the

268
00:14:34,760 --> 00:14:38,400
Speaker 1: car ever been in an accident? Uh no, not to

269
00:14:38,440 --> 00:14:40,360
Speaker 1: my knowledge. We had we had that all proved out.

270
00:14:40,360 --> 00:14:42,400
Speaker 1: Of course, you never know, I mean to the dealer.

271
00:14:42,480 --> 00:14:44,360
Speaker 1: And then I pulled up the license and all the

272
00:14:44,480 --> 00:14:47,360
Speaker 1: previous owners if it had been in any accident, and

273
00:14:47,440 --> 00:14:49,480
Speaker 1: it showed nothing like that. I mean, you want to

274
00:14:49,760 --> 00:14:51,600
Speaker 1: you want to just double check that. And then then

275
00:14:51,640 --> 00:14:54,840
Speaker 1: my other thought is do you have a factory radio

276
00:14:54,920 --> 00:14:57,960
Speaker 1: in this car? Is it an aftermarket radio? No, it's

277
00:14:58,000 --> 00:15:01,960
Speaker 1: a it's a factory And the reason I asked that

278
00:15:02,080 --> 00:15:08,360
Speaker 1: question is because cars today and Chrysler especially everything there

279
00:15:08,440 --> 00:15:11,240
Speaker 1: is a controlled area network. You ever, you ever have

280
00:15:11,280 --> 00:15:15,800
Speaker 1: a bad computer pull down the network? Yeah? And you

281
00:15:15,800 --> 00:15:18,040
Speaker 1: know what? And it seems like a lot of problems

282
00:15:18,040 --> 00:15:20,200
Speaker 1: with radios and vehicles today. And they're not the only

283
00:15:20,240 --> 00:15:23,880
Speaker 1: ones that you'll see this with, but you'll see problems

284
00:15:23,920 --> 00:15:27,880
Speaker 1: where radios, for example, or I've had I've had Chrysler's

285
00:15:27,960 --> 00:15:31,880
Speaker 1: where power seats stopped working. You unplug the module that

286
00:15:31,920 --> 00:15:34,320
Speaker 1: controls the power seat count to ten, plug it back in.

287
00:15:34,400 --> 00:15:37,280
Speaker 1: It's a reboot, it's a dead boot. Problem goes away

288
00:15:37,320 --> 00:15:40,000
Speaker 1: and it never happens again. I Chrysler just has some

289
00:15:40,120 --> 00:15:43,840
Speaker 1: really neat, interesting little electrical gremlins. So the way I'm

290
00:15:43,840 --> 00:15:46,760
Speaker 1: gonna tell you this has to get diagnosed, all right,

291
00:15:47,120 --> 00:15:51,040
Speaker 1: is the first thing I want you to do is

292
00:15:51,800 --> 00:15:55,200
Speaker 1: repeat the problem. I'd like somebody to go in, scan

293
00:15:55,320 --> 00:15:58,520
Speaker 1: it for fault codes and do a complete vehicle scan

294
00:15:59,040 --> 00:16:03,080
Speaker 1: every module in the vehicle, write down everything complete. I

295
00:16:03,160 --> 00:16:06,320
Speaker 1: want you know if there's if there's thirty eight modules

296
00:16:06,360 --> 00:16:08,720
Speaker 1: on this vehicle. I wanted to look at every module,

297
00:16:09,400 --> 00:16:15,440
Speaker 1: all right, Okay, a complete scan. Yeah, okay, I'm just repeating.

298
00:16:15,600 --> 00:16:18,720
Speaker 1: I'm getting a complete scan of all the modules that

299
00:16:18,800 --> 00:16:22,200
Speaker 1: are on this car, them right, all of them. Then

300
00:16:22,240 --> 00:16:24,040
Speaker 1: I want you then I want you to erase all

301
00:16:24,080 --> 00:16:28,600
Speaker 1: the fault codes and go and go and go drive

302
00:16:28,640 --> 00:16:30,920
Speaker 1: it again and listen. I'll tell you what, Barry. If

303
00:16:30,960 --> 00:16:33,480
Speaker 1: you want, you can actually get this section of the podcast.

304
00:16:33,520 --> 00:16:36,160
Speaker 1: This will be our to today. You can actually go

305
00:16:36,200 --> 00:16:38,400
Speaker 1: to the website Car Doctor show dot com download the

306
00:16:38,400 --> 00:16:40,960
Speaker 1: podcast you're coming up around the quarter past the hour

307
00:16:41,640 --> 00:16:43,520
Speaker 1: that's where you started. You can actually listen to this

308
00:16:43,520 --> 00:16:46,040
Speaker 1: whole conversation over and over again. So let me let

309
00:16:46,040 --> 00:16:47,280
Speaker 1: me tell you, let me tell you what to do,

310
00:16:47,360 --> 00:16:49,080
Speaker 1: and then you go back and listen to the podcast.

311
00:16:49,280 --> 00:16:51,640
Speaker 1: You'll get more out of it. So I want you

312
00:16:51,680 --> 00:16:55,160
Speaker 1: to go through scan all the modules, all right, write

313
00:16:55,160 --> 00:16:58,520
Speaker 1: everything down, printed out. However, your scan tool works, clear

314
00:16:58,560 --> 00:17:02,520
Speaker 1: the codes, clear the codes. Take it for a rod,

315
00:17:02,920 --> 00:17:07,919
Speaker 1: repeat the problem. Okay, scan it again. What came back?

316
00:17:08,440 --> 00:17:11,560
Speaker 1: That will at least give you a direction if no

317
00:17:11,680 --> 00:17:15,879
Speaker 1: fault codes existed before and no fault codes exist after,

318
00:17:16,240 --> 00:17:20,720
Speaker 1: and this vehicle legitimately goes into a cutout situation, all right,

319
00:17:21,440 --> 00:17:24,080
Speaker 1: Just to end the argument, I want you to clean

320
00:17:24,119 --> 00:17:28,640
Speaker 1: the throttle body, all right, Chrysler throttle bodies, Chrysler drive

321
00:17:28,680 --> 00:17:30,480
Speaker 1: by wire. Let me tell you how you need Chrysler

322
00:17:30,560 --> 00:17:34,000
Speaker 1: drive by wire. Is Chrysler drive by wire if it

323
00:17:34,080 --> 00:17:37,200
Speaker 1: has a fault in the electronic throttle control on a

324
00:17:37,280 --> 00:17:39,680
Speaker 1: Chrysler and other cars do this, but Chrysler seems to

325
00:17:39,680 --> 00:17:42,760
Speaker 1: be real good at it. The car won't start. It's

326
00:17:42,800 --> 00:17:44,960
Speaker 1: not that it'll crank over and not fire. It won't

327
00:17:44,960 --> 00:17:48,680
Speaker 1: even crank. They disabled that. They disabled to start command

328
00:17:49,000 --> 00:17:51,560
Speaker 1: to prevent the vehicle from firing up. Whether that existed

329
00:17:51,560 --> 00:17:53,480
Speaker 1: in a way, And I have to reference a diagram

330
00:17:53,560 --> 00:17:55,760
Speaker 1: to be sure, but it's always a good idea to

331
00:17:55,760 --> 00:17:58,320
Speaker 1: start with a clean throttle body on this car. Make

332
00:17:58,400 --> 00:18:02,480
Speaker 1: sure the plate moves free and easy. Okay, then take

333
00:18:02,520 --> 00:18:05,600
Speaker 1: it for a ride. Get the problem to repeat. Still

334
00:18:05,640 --> 00:18:09,160
Speaker 1: no codes. Now I want to scope cam and crank sensors.

335
00:18:09,320 --> 00:18:11,560
Speaker 1: What am I losing? I want to look at charging

336
00:18:11,600 --> 00:18:13,919
Speaker 1: system voltage while this happens. I want to look at

337
00:18:13,960 --> 00:18:16,520
Speaker 1: the scan tool and look at some of the variable

338
00:18:16,560 --> 00:18:19,880
Speaker 1: parameters like fuel trim, write them down, and then when

339
00:18:19,880 --> 00:18:23,920
Speaker 1: the problem reoccurs, did they reset or are they back

340
00:18:23,960 --> 00:18:26,480
Speaker 1: where they were? In other words, is the PCM going

341
00:18:26,520 --> 00:18:28,920
Speaker 1: into a lost limp mode like it's losing its mind

342
00:18:28,920 --> 00:18:31,840
Speaker 1: and starting over again, or is it retaining it. You've

343
00:18:31,840 --> 00:18:33,520
Speaker 1: got some work cut out for you, Barry. Do that.

344
00:18:33,640 --> 00:18:35,320
Speaker 1: Call me back, let me know what happens. I'm kind

345
00:18:35,320 --> 00:18:37,440
Speaker 1: of curious we'll get this fixed yet. I'm not a

346
00:18:37,480 --> 00:18:39,320
Speaker 1: naming of the Car Doctor coming back right after this.

347
00:18:49,240 --> 00:18:52,120
Speaker 1: Welcome back the end of the Car Doctor five zero

348
00:18:52,240 --> 00:18:55,600
Speaker 1: nine zero zero Car Doctor Show dot com for more information. UM,

349
00:18:55,840 --> 00:18:57,680
Speaker 1: I just want to mention this. I was thinking about

350
00:18:57,680 --> 00:19:01,280
Speaker 1: Barry from California, and I've to make a comment with

351
00:19:01,400 --> 00:19:06,000
Speaker 1: regard to how that diagnosis went down. That was probably

352
00:19:06,040 --> 00:19:09,760
Speaker 1: a classic example of how not to diagnose something. All Right,

353
00:19:09,840 --> 00:19:12,280
Speaker 1: A hundred and sixty dollars and no print out. We

354
00:19:12,359 --> 00:19:15,040
Speaker 1: call it printing post. In the shop, we talk about

355
00:19:15,119 --> 00:19:17,600
Speaker 1: killing trees. Unfortunately, if you're a tree hugger, I'm not

356
00:19:17,640 --> 00:19:20,119
Speaker 1: your guy, all right, because we print a lot in

357
00:19:20,119 --> 00:19:23,920
Speaker 1: the shop, and you know, every diagnosis I've ever done,

358
00:19:24,400 --> 00:19:28,119
Speaker 1: I print as much information as I possibly can for

359
00:19:28,160 --> 00:19:31,679
Speaker 1: two reasons. One to prove I actually did something, and

360
00:19:31,720 --> 00:19:33,760
Speaker 1: it also helps in explaining it at the counter. So

361
00:19:33,800 --> 00:19:36,679
Speaker 1: if you're paying for a diagnosis, Look, you go to

362
00:19:36,680 --> 00:19:39,640
Speaker 1: the doctor, he'll give you some kind of a written diagnosis, right,

363
00:19:39,800 --> 00:19:41,800
Speaker 1: they'll give you X rays in some cases, no, not

364
00:19:41,840 --> 00:19:44,160
Speaker 1: so much anymore, but you can demand them. But they

365
00:19:44,200 --> 00:19:46,720
Speaker 1: give you all your medical history in some form digitally

366
00:19:46,800 --> 00:19:50,119
Speaker 1: or otherwise to take home. Seems true with a car today,

367
00:19:50,520 --> 00:19:53,920
Speaker 1: if you're paying for a diagnosis, if you're getting a diagnosis,

368
00:19:53,920 --> 00:19:56,400
Speaker 1: whether you're paying for it or not, actually you've got

369
00:19:56,400 --> 00:20:00,359
Speaker 1: to get something in writing. What did you do? And

370
00:20:01,240 --> 00:20:05,160
Speaker 1: I'll say it like this. This year I purchased a

371
00:20:05,240 --> 00:20:08,080
Speaker 1: scan device, you know, a desktop scanner, so I can

372
00:20:08,119 --> 00:20:12,120
Speaker 1: now scan the diagnosis right to Google Drive. And I've

373
00:20:12,119 --> 00:20:15,560
Speaker 1: got folders set up for diagnostics, GM Diagnostics, Chrysler and

374
00:20:15,600 --> 00:20:18,760
Speaker 1: so on. I'm building my own database. I'll drop it

375
00:20:18,800 --> 00:20:21,159
Speaker 1: in hit the shortcut game, and then I shred it,

376
00:20:21,200 --> 00:20:22,480
Speaker 1: and then I've always got it to fall back to,

377
00:20:22,560 --> 00:20:24,199
Speaker 1: and then I'll go back later on and I'll reference

378
00:20:24,200 --> 00:20:27,000
Speaker 1: the file and say, uh, you know, oh, a Chrysler

379
00:20:27,000 --> 00:20:29,040
Speaker 1: cutting out an idle problem, and I've got a database

380
00:20:29,080 --> 00:20:31,760
Speaker 1: that I'm building. You've got to print the material. You've

381
00:20:31,800 --> 00:20:33,600
Speaker 1: got to have a record of what you did, because

382
00:20:33,640 --> 00:20:36,240
Speaker 1: you're not gonna remember. Barry's not gonna remember what he

383
00:20:36,280 --> 00:20:38,479
Speaker 1: did at the beginning of this diagnosis till the end

384
00:20:38,480 --> 00:20:42,440
Speaker 1: of it, and neither will you, and neither will your mechanic. Um.

385
00:20:42,640 --> 00:20:45,959
Speaker 1: You know, there's always there's always a reason to print

386
00:20:46,800 --> 00:20:49,359
Speaker 1: for the mechanic, to help retain the information for you,

387
00:20:49,440 --> 00:20:54,160
Speaker 1: the consumer, for proof of what happened. Because you print

388
00:20:54,200 --> 00:20:56,720
Speaker 1: it today, you're on the East coast. You moved to

389
00:20:56,720 --> 00:20:59,240
Speaker 1: the West coat in two weeks. A month later, the

390
00:20:59,280 --> 00:21:01,520
Speaker 1: same problem happens. How are you going to prove that

391
00:21:01,640 --> 00:21:03,960
Speaker 1: what was done? You can't And if you've got it

392
00:21:04,000 --> 00:21:07,000
Speaker 1: in writing, you sure ken. So just something to think about.

393
00:21:07,000 --> 00:21:09,280
Speaker 1: Don't pay for a diagnosis without a print out. I

394
00:21:09,280 --> 00:21:11,560
Speaker 1: think that's wrong. I think that's um I think that's

395
00:21:11,560 --> 00:21:13,560
Speaker 1: a license to steal money. Let's get over and talk

396
00:21:13,600 --> 00:21:17,240
Speaker 1: to Sam Portland. Is that where's that Portland, Michigan? Is

397
00:21:17,280 --> 00:21:20,280
Speaker 1: that where we are? Yep, yes, yes, sir, Yes, yes sir.

398
00:21:20,480 --> 00:21:22,159
Speaker 1: Where's that ol FI p T cruiser? How can I

399
00:21:22,160 --> 00:21:27,320
Speaker 1: help you? Well, the car quit on me and then uh,

400
00:21:27,400 --> 00:21:30,399
Speaker 1: and then it would start, uh, and I'd drive it

401
00:21:30,400 --> 00:21:33,600
Speaker 1: a little ways to quit again. So I, of course

402
00:21:33,640 --> 00:21:37,399
Speaker 1: took it to the mechanic and uh, he couldn't get

403
00:21:37,440 --> 00:21:40,000
Speaker 1: it to quit. He ended a week, he kept trying trying,

404
00:21:40,080 --> 00:21:43,119
Speaker 1: it wouldn't quit. So I bring it home. It quits,

405
00:21:43,240 --> 00:21:46,760
Speaker 1: of course. So anyway, I took it to another mechanic

406
00:21:47,600 --> 00:21:50,600
Speaker 1: and he did a lot of testing for on the

407
00:21:50,840 --> 00:21:55,000
Speaker 1: connections and everything, and uh, finally you got down to

408
00:21:55,000 --> 00:21:57,680
Speaker 1: the point where we thought it was a computer. Call

409
00:21:57,760 --> 00:22:02,280
Speaker 1: the computer, sent it in to get it reprogrammed. They

410
00:22:02,320 --> 00:22:05,399
Speaker 1: said it was a computer, was no good, So we

411
00:22:05,520 --> 00:22:09,720
Speaker 1: got another computer put it in and it ran really

412
00:22:09,720 --> 00:22:13,919
Speaker 1: good for like fifteen minutes. So then we really attached it.

413
00:22:13,960 --> 00:22:17,040
Speaker 1: He did to the to the car and it ran,

414
00:22:17,320 --> 00:22:19,840
Speaker 1: you know, another ten minutes or so, and then it

415
00:22:20,200 --> 00:22:23,520
Speaker 1: quit again. Well, when I understand something, you've got a

416
00:22:23,520 --> 00:22:29,400
Speaker 1: replacement computer. Yeah, and you put it in the car, right,

417
00:22:29,600 --> 00:22:32,760
Speaker 1: and it ran for fifteen minutes, right, and then you

418
00:22:32,800 --> 00:22:38,240
Speaker 1: did well. Well, then then if he if he unplugged

419
00:22:38,280 --> 00:22:41,320
Speaker 1: it and plug it back in, it would start again

420
00:22:41,359 --> 00:22:42,840
Speaker 1: and run for a little bit. But then we had

421
00:22:42,880 --> 00:22:47,080
Speaker 1: this really foul smell. I don't know. We couldn't figure

422
00:22:47,080 --> 00:22:51,360
Speaker 1: out what that was. But anyway, so that's the status

423
00:22:51,440 --> 00:22:54,280
Speaker 1: right now. I um, you know, I'm at a loss

424
00:22:54,600 --> 00:22:56,800
Speaker 1: what to do because if I if I tried to

425
00:22:56,840 --> 00:23:01,679
Speaker 1: get a another computer from christ, it's gonna cost me,

426
00:23:01,800 --> 00:23:05,960
Speaker 1: like and the car is not worth that, right because

427
00:23:06,000 --> 00:23:08,280
Speaker 1: it's it's it's not it's not a turbo or there's

428
00:23:08,280 --> 00:23:12,640
Speaker 1: a turbo car. Right. So we're going on the assumption,

429
00:23:12,680 --> 00:23:14,359
Speaker 1: which is a dangerous word, but we all wear a

430
00:23:14,400 --> 00:23:16,639
Speaker 1: big boy pants here on the car. Doctor. Um, this

431
00:23:16,720 --> 00:23:19,120
Speaker 1: is a dangerous word. But we're going on the assumption

432
00:23:19,160 --> 00:23:21,840
Speaker 1: that this is a PCM and the reman PCM that

433
00:23:21,880 --> 00:23:23,720
Speaker 1: you got maybe is no good. Is that what we're

434
00:23:23,760 --> 00:23:27,919
Speaker 1: talking about here? Is that what the mechanics thinking. So

435
00:23:28,280 --> 00:23:30,159
Speaker 1: if we're going to that assumption, so you've got to

436
00:23:30,160 --> 00:23:34,960
Speaker 1: find a used PCM that you know won't break the bank.

437
00:23:35,520 --> 00:23:40,680
Speaker 1: Basically all right, there's a place in Pennsylvania. I gotta

438
00:23:40,720 --> 00:23:44,280
Speaker 1: think of their name. Now, wait a minute, used e

439
00:23:44,440 --> 00:23:48,800
Speaker 1: c MS dot com, used PCMs dot com there in

440
00:23:48,920 --> 00:23:51,680
Speaker 1: eastern p a. Um, let me put it this way.

441
00:23:51,680 --> 00:23:54,520
Speaker 1: The shops in northern in Northern Jersey. And they're about

442
00:23:54,560 --> 00:23:56,080
Speaker 1: two hours from me. So if you look at a

443
00:23:56,119 --> 00:24:00,200
Speaker 1: map and go west of Waldwick, um, there's some we're

444
00:24:00,200 --> 00:24:02,840
Speaker 1: in that neck of the woods. All right. Um, I

445
00:24:02,840 --> 00:24:05,560
Speaker 1: think it's used PCM to use d c MS. They've

446
00:24:05,560 --> 00:24:10,000
Speaker 1: actually got a website and you can, you know, plug

447
00:24:10,000 --> 00:24:12,160
Speaker 1: in your computer part number. You'll have a part number

448
00:24:12,160 --> 00:24:16,240
Speaker 1: on your computer. And they're pretty good. Um. I don't

449
00:24:16,280 --> 00:24:18,440
Speaker 1: buy I don't buy a lot of US d c ms,

450
00:24:18,960 --> 00:24:20,960
Speaker 1: but every once in a while i've got somebody on

451
00:24:21,000 --> 00:24:22,879
Speaker 1: a short budget. Nothing to be ashamed of it, just

452
00:24:22,920 --> 00:24:24,440
Speaker 1: it is what it is. It's like at the point,

453
00:24:24,960 --> 00:24:27,400
Speaker 1: and sometimes I've got sometimes I've got older cars where

454
00:24:27,400 --> 00:24:30,800
Speaker 1: the e c M is obsolete. I can't get it anymore. Um.

455
00:24:30,920 --> 00:24:34,040
Speaker 1: Well that's that's kind of what's happened here. And and

456
00:24:34,119 --> 00:24:37,160
Speaker 1: they had this place I went had one the same

457
00:24:37,240 --> 00:24:41,640
Speaker 1: numbers and everything right, and so you know we had

458
00:24:42,000 --> 00:24:46,200
Speaker 1: of course it was good to work, right, So I would, Yeah,

459
00:24:46,240 --> 00:24:47,920
Speaker 1: I would. I would call up and talk to them.

460
00:24:48,240 --> 00:24:51,399
Speaker 1: I'll tell you what it's. It's it's amazing. And if

461
00:24:51,440 --> 00:24:54,040
Speaker 1: you can't find it, email me Ron at Car Doctor

462
00:24:54,119 --> 00:24:56,119
Speaker 1: Show dot com and when I get it. When I

463
00:24:56,119 --> 00:24:58,040
Speaker 1: get it on Monday. There's a magnet sitting on the

464
00:24:58,040 --> 00:25:00,800
Speaker 1: file cabinet, you know, every once in a while. Um,

465
00:25:01,160 --> 00:25:03,640
Speaker 1: I remember seeing it there every once in a while

466
00:25:03,680 --> 00:25:06,880
Speaker 1: I needed. But I can surely give you the information

467
00:25:06,880 --> 00:25:08,560
Speaker 1: that way. But I think it's used d cms or

468
00:25:08,640 --> 00:25:12,560
Speaker 1: used PCMs. It's a pretty simple generic. Been using them

469
00:25:12,560 --> 00:25:15,480
Speaker 1: for the better part of fifteen years. And I think

470
00:25:15,480 --> 00:25:18,480
Speaker 1: I had one situation where I think it was a

471
00:25:18,480 --> 00:25:20,840
Speaker 1: four Grand Marque PCM where I had to get to

472
00:25:21,480 --> 00:25:23,159
Speaker 1: and they'll they'll work with you. They were, they were

473
00:25:23,200 --> 00:25:26,000
Speaker 1: good people, they worked. Haven't talked to them in a while.

474
00:25:26,280 --> 00:25:27,800
Speaker 1: For all I know, they're out of business. It's been

475
00:25:27,840 --> 00:25:29,840
Speaker 1: probably a year since I've used them. I'm not to

476
00:25:29,880 --> 00:25:31,560
Speaker 1: put it, not to put a damper on it, but

477
00:25:32,320 --> 00:25:37,680
Speaker 1: you know, it's it's that the company that I got

478
00:25:37,720 --> 00:25:42,720
Speaker 1: the one from. Uh No, everything I read about them,

479
00:25:42,720 --> 00:25:46,680
Speaker 1: they were really reliable. It hasn't one year. Uh wardy,

480
00:25:46,800 --> 00:25:49,120
Speaker 1: so I'm sure I can send it back. Well, once

481
00:25:49,160 --> 00:25:50,720
Speaker 1: you send it back and see if they've got another one,

482
00:25:51,400 --> 00:25:53,040
Speaker 1: that's what I'm gonna do, you know. But I just

483
00:25:53,080 --> 00:25:55,919
Speaker 1: wanted if you hit might have had some other you know.

484
00:25:55,960 --> 00:25:59,200
Speaker 1: The thing that really struck me was that the smell,

485
00:25:59,280 --> 00:26:01,439
Speaker 1: right that all of a sudden appeared, and I wondered

486
00:26:01,480 --> 00:26:04,679
Speaker 1: if if there was something unique about that. Well, do

487
00:26:04,720 --> 00:26:06,760
Speaker 1: you have the old d c M yet or you

488
00:26:06,800 --> 00:26:09,679
Speaker 1: have to send it back? No? No, I have it. Okay,

489
00:26:09,720 --> 00:26:11,720
Speaker 1: So if you plug that one in, the car runs different,

490
00:26:12,840 --> 00:26:15,080
Speaker 1: and that that is another way to look at it. Yeah,

491
00:26:15,119 --> 00:26:16,840
Speaker 1: if you plug the old d c M back in

492
00:26:16,960 --> 00:26:20,399
Speaker 1: and the car runs totally different, you've just you've just

493
00:26:20,560 --> 00:26:23,359
Speaker 1: proven that the new e c M is bad because

494
00:26:23,400 --> 00:26:28,320
Speaker 1: it's something changed. All right, you know what's different? Uh?

495
00:26:28,359 --> 00:26:31,439
Speaker 1: You know, here's the here's here's the great parameter. Here,

496
00:26:31,480 --> 00:26:34,800
Speaker 1: here's the or here's the here's the great equalizer. You're

497
00:26:34,920 --> 00:26:39,080
Speaker 1: you're you're dealing with unknowns because I don't care who

498
00:26:39,160 --> 00:26:43,080
Speaker 1: remanufactures it. I've always felt this way. I've never I

499
00:26:43,520 --> 00:26:46,720
Speaker 1: just unless it's at engineering level, I don't think any

500
00:26:46,760 --> 00:26:50,680
Speaker 1: aftermarket computer rebuilder anybody even use d c M S.

501
00:26:51,119 --> 00:26:53,359
Speaker 1: All right, I understand they rebuild some of their stuff.

502
00:26:53,400 --> 00:26:55,040
Speaker 1: I don't think they can test it the way the

503
00:26:55,080 --> 00:26:57,840
Speaker 1: factory assembled it. I just don't think because they don't

504
00:26:57,880 --> 00:27:00,600
Speaker 1: have the dollars, they don't have the engine ring for it.

505
00:27:01,080 --> 00:27:03,440
Speaker 1: And and you know the inversame thing when we the

506
00:27:03,440 --> 00:27:06,280
Speaker 1: the one that we took out, it was all it

507
00:27:06,320 --> 00:27:09,640
Speaker 1: was a used one, right, so it must have been

508
00:27:09,680 --> 00:27:13,399
Speaker 1: replaced you before I bought the car, right, It's yeah,

509
00:27:13,480 --> 00:27:17,879
Speaker 1: it's okay. Yeah. Now now the only other alternative is

510
00:27:17,960 --> 00:27:20,040
Speaker 1: because it's a two four turbo, you know, it's a

511
00:27:20,040 --> 00:27:21,959
Speaker 1: little bit of a lot rod. You just wondered if

512
00:27:21,960 --> 00:27:24,560
Speaker 1: it does anybody make a performance computer for it? Does

513
00:27:24,600 --> 00:27:27,879
Speaker 1: anybody do a computer from scratch? And I don't know,

514
00:27:28,119 --> 00:27:31,560
Speaker 1: you know, and maybe that's you know so, but but

515
00:27:31,560 --> 00:27:34,080
Speaker 1: but one step at a time. All right, Let's let's

516
00:27:34,119 --> 00:27:36,360
Speaker 1: see what else happens. Let's let's try swapping the computers

517
00:27:36,400 --> 00:27:38,560
Speaker 1: back and forth and seeing if that changes the way

518
00:27:38,600 --> 00:27:41,200
Speaker 1: it goes. And if it doesn't and the car runs

519
00:27:41,240 --> 00:27:43,960
Speaker 1: the same, then call me back and we'll diagnose it together.

520
00:27:44,000 --> 00:27:46,679
Speaker 1: All right, that's my promise. So all right, you do

521
00:27:46,760 --> 00:27:49,360
Speaker 1: that and then we'll go from there A good deal. Alright, sir,

522
00:27:49,480 --> 00:27:51,280
Speaker 1: you take good care. I'm any of the car Doctor

523
00:27:51,600 --> 00:27:56,280
Speaker 1: and I'll be back right after this. Hey, welcome back,

524
00:27:56,560 --> 00:27:59,840
Speaker 1: any of the car Doctor. Zero nine zero zero. Let's

525
00:27:59,840 --> 00:28:02,480
Speaker 1: get ever and talk to Tom Banger mean Tom. How

526
00:28:02,520 --> 00:28:05,120
Speaker 1: are you today, sir? What's going on? Oh? I'm well,

527
00:28:05,160 --> 00:28:07,159
Speaker 1: how are you? I'm good? What's cooking? How cold is

528
00:28:07,200 --> 00:28:09,119
Speaker 1: it up there today? It's gotta it's it's bone chilling

529
00:28:09,119 --> 00:28:11,240
Speaker 1: called here in New Jersey, so I gotta think of

530
00:28:11,320 --> 00:28:15,440
Speaker 1: me and it's you know, no, it's it's actually pushing

531
00:28:15,840 --> 00:28:18,600
Speaker 1: thirty six thirty eight right now. It's not too bad.

532
00:28:18,680 --> 00:28:20,480
Speaker 1: Yeah for you guys. It's like a heat wave for

533
00:28:21,359 --> 00:28:24,960
Speaker 1: New Jersey. That's like, you know, don't leave the house. So, um,

534
00:28:25,000 --> 00:28:31,320
Speaker 1: what's going on? Well, I I'm incliring about owen. I'm

535
00:28:31,400 --> 00:28:36,560
Speaker 1: j K wrangling with the V six um and I

536
00:28:36,680 --> 00:28:39,400
Speaker 1: was going to put a cold air intake probably the

537
00:28:39,600 --> 00:28:43,440
Speaker 1: kin and system there. But I had a quick question

538
00:28:43,480 --> 00:28:46,320
Speaker 1: before I went and did it, and that is, um,

539
00:28:46,520 --> 00:28:50,520
Speaker 1: this thing is used um in fairly rugged country in

540
00:28:50,560 --> 00:28:54,360
Speaker 1: the dead of winner sometimes, you know, seeing thirty five

541
00:28:54,400 --> 00:28:59,160
Speaker 1: below a lot of snow, and I you know, I

542
00:28:59,240 --> 00:29:02,479
Speaker 1: understand the base principles of of you know, feeding feeding

543
00:29:02,480 --> 00:29:06,000
Speaker 1: that engine a lot more air, and I just you know,

544
00:29:06,000 --> 00:29:09,320
Speaker 1: it's got a hundred sixty five miles on it, and

545
00:29:09,320 --> 00:29:12,240
Speaker 1: and uh, the culbination of the miles and the and

546
00:29:12,320 --> 00:29:15,720
Speaker 1: the incredibly cold air feeding that engine. I didn't know

547
00:29:15,800 --> 00:29:18,280
Speaker 1: if there were any drawbacks to go into a system

548
00:29:18,320 --> 00:29:21,280
Speaker 1: like that. I don't see any drawbacks to it. But

549
00:29:21,480 --> 00:29:24,280
Speaker 1: one of the things I've always gotten concerned with, and

550
00:29:24,400 --> 00:29:26,160
Speaker 1: and the fact that we can now look at it,

551
00:29:26,200 --> 00:29:28,800
Speaker 1: is I like looking at it through a tuner. I

552
00:29:28,800 --> 00:29:30,920
Speaker 1: would tell you do the cold air intake, but also

553
00:29:30,960 --> 00:29:33,880
Speaker 1: consider putting a tuner on it, because then at least

554
00:29:33,920 --> 00:29:36,200
Speaker 1: you can modify and make the changes right from the seat,

555
00:29:36,200 --> 00:29:38,240
Speaker 1: and you can also see what's going on, and you'll

556
00:29:38,280 --> 00:29:40,200
Speaker 1: actually be able to see the differences of that cold

557
00:29:40,240 --> 00:29:44,000
Speaker 1: air intake system is making and then adjust accordingly. So

558
00:29:44,760 --> 00:29:46,160
Speaker 1: you know, it's it's sort of like you know, in

559
00:29:46,200 --> 00:29:48,120
Speaker 1: the old days, were you were you a high school

560
00:29:48,160 --> 00:29:52,480
Speaker 1: hot rutter, tom um, Well, I drove some rough, old

561
00:29:52,480 --> 00:29:54,840
Speaker 1: pickup trucks, but they usually had like a four sixty

562
00:29:54,880 --> 00:29:57,160
Speaker 1: in the right. Yeah, so you qualify, man. You know,

563
00:29:57,200 --> 00:30:00,320
Speaker 1: it's like you never you never did just headers, right.

564
00:30:00,680 --> 00:30:04,240
Speaker 1: It always started as headers, and then it became full exhaust,

565
00:30:04,320 --> 00:30:06,400
Speaker 1: and then it became an intake, and then you know,

566
00:30:06,480 --> 00:30:09,320
Speaker 1: so you know cold air intakes. I get these questions

567
00:30:09,360 --> 00:30:11,719
Speaker 1: all the time. They're great. The cannon system, great system.

568
00:30:11,800 --> 00:30:14,920
Speaker 1: Have one on, have two on two family vehicles. Having

569
00:30:14,960 --> 00:30:16,880
Speaker 1: on my plow truck for crying out loud. You know,

570
00:30:16,920 --> 00:30:18,440
Speaker 1: I got a plow truck with a can in on it.

571
00:30:18,480 --> 00:30:20,600
Speaker 1: Not that that's so unusual, but you know, it's a

572
00:30:20,640 --> 00:30:22,480
Speaker 1: great system. It added a lot of bottom end, it

573
00:30:22,480 --> 00:30:25,000
Speaker 1: added some more, it added some better off final response.

574
00:30:25,320 --> 00:30:28,520
Speaker 1: But the flat out biggest change I saw on the

575
00:30:28,520 --> 00:30:30,920
Speaker 1: plow truck was when I put a tuner on it.

576
00:30:31,040 --> 00:30:33,480
Speaker 1: I've got a I've got a um in tune uh,

577
00:30:33,640 --> 00:30:36,560
Speaker 1: you know from Diablo Sport Uh, the Intune I two

578
00:30:37,040 --> 00:30:39,479
Speaker 1: and UM. It just made a heck of a difference

579
00:30:39,480 --> 00:30:41,280
Speaker 1: in the fact that I can sit there and you

580
00:30:41,320 --> 00:30:43,600
Speaker 1: know just what I want to adjust and change what

581
00:30:43,640 --> 00:30:46,120
Speaker 1: I want to change. Just you know, it's just it's

582
00:30:46,160 --> 00:30:48,360
Speaker 1: it's it's better. I'm actually able to tune what's coming

583
00:30:48,400 --> 00:30:51,440
Speaker 1: in and what's going out. So just just something to

584
00:30:51,480 --> 00:30:57,600
Speaker 1: think about that decrease engine life at all or anything

585
00:30:57,680 --> 00:31:00,440
Speaker 1: like that as far as um, you know, on paper, No,

586
00:31:00,800 --> 00:31:02,880
Speaker 1: not in paper, not on my mind. And you know,

587
00:31:02,960 --> 00:31:05,480
Speaker 1: somebody else asked me this question on Facebook the other day.

588
00:31:05,840 --> 00:31:10,000
Speaker 1: They they said that, you know, the question was about

589
00:31:10,040 --> 00:31:13,120
Speaker 1: you know, manufacturer's warranty. To my knowledge, it does not

590
00:31:13,840 --> 00:31:17,040
Speaker 1: all right, Um, you know, I I think that the

591
00:31:17,080 --> 00:31:19,480
Speaker 1: concern is and and I will say this, the folks

592
00:31:19,480 --> 00:31:22,240
Speaker 1: at the Olblow Sport will tell you where the line

593
00:31:22,320 --> 00:31:26,760
Speaker 1: is between emissions warranty and manufacturer's warranty and you know, legal,

594
00:31:26,800 --> 00:31:29,400
Speaker 1: illegal and that stuff. They're very careful about that because

595
00:31:29,440 --> 00:31:32,720
Speaker 1: it's it's obviously a big issue. Uh, it can be honest.

596
00:31:33,000 --> 00:31:35,000
Speaker 1: To be honest, I'm not too awful worried about the

597
00:31:35,040 --> 00:31:38,000
Speaker 1: warranty issue where it has so many miles and the emissions,

598
00:31:38,120 --> 00:31:40,560
Speaker 1: the emissions are fairly loose and fast here in Maine.

599
00:31:40,560 --> 00:31:42,800
Speaker 1: It's it's more of a case of, you know, I

600
00:31:42,840 --> 00:31:45,840
Speaker 1: want this thing to last as long as possible, and

601
00:31:45,920 --> 00:31:48,440
Speaker 1: I'd keep it, you know, i'd keep everything factory on

602
00:31:48,480 --> 00:31:50,440
Speaker 1: the engine side of things. If I if I was,

603
00:31:50,640 --> 00:31:52,440
Speaker 1: you know, thinking that that would be an issue. But

604
00:31:52,480 --> 00:31:54,440
Speaker 1: if if it's not, I'd certainly like to get a

605
00:31:54,480 --> 00:31:58,840
Speaker 1: little bit of extra you know power. Yeah, I I

606
00:31:59,320 --> 00:32:01,520
Speaker 1: you know what, I wouldn't put it on a vehicle

607
00:32:01,920 --> 00:32:03,960
Speaker 1: if I thought it was gonna shorten the life, because

608
00:32:04,120 --> 00:32:06,320
Speaker 1: even the plow truck at thirty two thousand miles, I'd

609
00:32:06,320 --> 00:32:07,960
Speaker 1: still worry about it. On the other end, I don't.

610
00:32:07,960 --> 00:32:10,760
Speaker 1: I don't want to abuse anything. Um. I think. I

611
00:32:10,800 --> 00:32:12,640
Speaker 1: think in the case of what I've seen from the

612
00:32:12,640 --> 00:32:15,760
Speaker 1: plow truck in particular, I think it's helping extend engine

613
00:32:15,800 --> 00:32:18,720
Speaker 1: life because in my mind it's it's it's it's such

614
00:32:18,760 --> 00:32:21,880
Speaker 1: a smoother transition free operation in the way it operates

615
00:32:22,000 --> 00:32:25,240
Speaker 1: pick up, you know, stop sign, pull away? Uh more,

616
00:32:25,360 --> 00:32:28,520
Speaker 1: it feels it feels guts here. Um. You know, I'm

617
00:32:28,560 --> 00:32:30,880
Speaker 1: making better use of what the factory didn't allow me

618
00:32:30,920 --> 00:32:32,760
Speaker 1: to do because of the way the engine is now tuned.

619
00:32:33,320 --> 00:32:35,360
Speaker 1: Uh you know. Think of it like this. Back in

620
00:32:35,400 --> 00:32:37,440
Speaker 1: the old days, if you jetted a Holly carburetor, did

621
00:32:37,480 --> 00:32:41,600
Speaker 1: it shorten engine life? No? Right, it Actually it made

622
00:32:41,640 --> 00:32:44,120
Speaker 1: it run more efficient. The only thing the shortened engine

623
00:32:44,160 --> 00:32:46,320
Speaker 1: life was your foot on the gas pedal, which you

624
00:32:46,360 --> 00:32:51,160
Speaker 1: know I can't control that. I can't control it so well,

625
00:32:50,440 --> 00:32:52,800
Speaker 1: I pull a boat with it, and I use it

626
00:32:52,840 --> 00:32:55,280
Speaker 1: a little bit aggressively as far as considering that it

627
00:32:55,400 --> 00:32:59,080
Speaker 1: is a gee pulling and something like that. So so

628
00:32:59,760 --> 00:33:05,960
Speaker 1: in Diablo, that's a that's a company that. Yeah, you

629

680
00:35:19,600 --> 00:35:22,279
Speaker 1: They're a little expensive, okay from a price point, but

681
00:35:22,360 --> 00:35:24,359

682
00:35:24,440 --> 00:35:27,160
Speaker 1: longer they seem they last, you know, the price goes

683
00:35:27,239 --> 00:35:29,480
Speaker 1: down there there there. They don't seem to be that
