1
00:00:01,000 --> 00:00:03,720
Speaker 1: Ron Andanian. Certain things that are done in order repair

2
00:00:03,920 --> 00:00:06,160
Speaker 1: are actually done wrong right from the get go. If

3
00:00:06,160 --> 00:00:07,880
Speaker 1: you if you ever look at a receipt for a

4
00:00:07,880 --> 00:00:10,639
Speaker 1: car that has a light out, it always says left

5
00:00:10,680 --> 00:00:14,400
Speaker 1: your directional not working, check bulb. It's never check circuit.

6
00:00:14,520 --> 00:00:23,279
Speaker 1: Thank God for American cars. Give the car doctor get

7
00:00:23,320 --> 00:00:25,599
Speaker 1: off the fact of this is too hard, this is

8
00:00:25,640 --> 00:00:27,640
Speaker 1: too much, this is too expensive. Do you want to

9
00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,560
Speaker 1: fix it? You gotta know what's wrong with it. First.

10
00:00:29,680 --> 00:00:32,600
Speaker 1: Welcome to the radio home of Ron and Anian, the

11
00:00:32,680 --> 00:00:37,120
Speaker 1: Car Doctor, since this is where car owners the world

12
00:00:37,159 --> 00:00:41,680
Speaker 1: overturned to for their definitive opinion on automotive repair. If

13
00:00:41,720 --> 00:00:44,440
Speaker 1: your mechanics giving you a busy signal, pick up the

14
00:00:44,440 --> 00:00:48,080
Speaker 1: phone and call in. The garage doors are open, but

15
00:00:48,159 --> 00:00:50,760
Speaker 1: I am here to take your falls at eight five

16
00:00:50,320 --> 00:00:58,840
Speaker 1: five and now he running. I wonder if hot rods

17
00:00:58,880 --> 00:01:01,440
Speaker 1: are a substitute for black coffee in the morning. I

18
00:01:01,480 --> 00:01:04,880
Speaker 1: wonder if that's a true statement. I saw it this morning,

19
00:01:05,160 --> 00:01:08,440
Speaker 1: because well, here's what happened. It's it's the weekend, right

20
00:01:08,440 --> 00:01:11,440
Speaker 1: and I always go to the chiropractor on on on Saturday,

21
00:01:11,480 --> 00:01:14,600
Speaker 1: and I took the wife with me this morning. She

22
00:01:14,600 --> 00:01:16,480
Speaker 1: she woke up, but she woke up late. She was

23
00:01:17,040 --> 00:01:17,920
Speaker 1: you know, it was, hey, you want to go to

24
00:01:17,959 --> 00:01:19,840
Speaker 1: the chiropractor? What time do we have to leave? Ten

25
00:01:19,840 --> 00:01:22,479
Speaker 1: minutes ago? So it was a quick you know, get

26
00:01:22,480 --> 00:01:24,800
Speaker 1: yourself together, out of bed and out the door. And

27
00:01:25,160 --> 00:01:26,960
Speaker 1: I didn't tell her we were taking the hot rod

28
00:01:27,720 --> 00:01:31,319
Speaker 1: and she sat in the car. I started up, I

29
00:01:31,360 --> 00:01:35,640
Speaker 1: had the headers open, and off we went. Now, this

30
00:01:35,720 --> 00:01:38,520
Speaker 1: is a woman that needs that black cup of coffee

31
00:01:38,560 --> 00:01:40,759
Speaker 1: every morning in about an hour in order to get

32
00:01:40,760 --> 00:01:43,360
Speaker 1: her juices going and get get you know, get started.

33
00:01:44,440 --> 00:01:47,480
Speaker 1: And she came alive. I mean she came alive without

34
00:01:47,520 --> 00:01:50,040
Speaker 1: that coffee. She came alive without that moment. It was

35
00:01:50,080 --> 00:01:52,120
Speaker 1: like that jolt to the system. And I'm thinking, as

36
00:01:52,160 --> 00:01:55,920
Speaker 1: coffee like as our hot rods like caffeine are they

37
00:01:56,040 --> 00:01:59,680
Speaker 1: are they is at that jolt. You know, there's something

38
00:01:59,680 --> 00:02:02,040
Speaker 1: about out hot rods. I don't know what it is.

39
00:02:02,080 --> 00:02:03,520
Speaker 1: And it can be a hot rod of any shape,

40
00:02:03,560 --> 00:02:06,400
Speaker 1: size or color, it doesn't matter. It can be you know,

41
00:02:06,440 --> 00:02:09,080
Speaker 1: a tuner, it can be you know, a buzzy exhaust

42
00:02:09,080 --> 00:02:10,840
Speaker 1: that can be open headers. It could be a motorcycle.

43
00:02:10,880 --> 00:02:15,040
Speaker 1: But there's something about not driving something off the showroom

44
00:02:15,160 --> 00:02:19,160
Speaker 1: floor that does something to people, and not in a

45
00:02:19,200 --> 00:02:21,000
Speaker 1: bad way. I think it's a good way. I think

46
00:02:21,040 --> 00:02:24,600
Speaker 1: it's you know, there's a there's a passion that comes

47
00:02:24,600 --> 00:02:27,640
Speaker 1: out of people. You know, I noticed that this morning,

48
00:02:27,680 --> 00:02:29,520
Speaker 1: and I see it a lot. I mean, I've been

49
00:02:29,600 --> 00:02:31,800
Speaker 1: driving hot rods of all shapes and sizes for a

50
00:02:31,800 --> 00:02:34,320
Speaker 1: long time now, but you know, maybe I was paying

51
00:02:34,320 --> 00:02:36,520
Speaker 1: more attention to it this this time of year. It's

52
00:02:36,560 --> 00:02:39,040
Speaker 1: becoming the end of the summer. We're getting into Labor

53
00:02:39,080 --> 00:02:41,280
Speaker 1: Day weekend and a couple of weeks and and now

54
00:02:41,320 --> 00:02:43,360
Speaker 1: you start to see hot rods coming out more and

55
00:02:43,440 --> 00:02:48,680
Speaker 1: more for this for the fall cruises and people maybe

56
00:02:48,880 --> 00:02:52,000
Speaker 1: now in our current world situation being what it is,

57
00:02:52,040 --> 00:02:54,160
Speaker 1: we're all kind of under the gun a little bit

58
00:02:54,200 --> 00:02:56,760
Speaker 1: and trying to find some joy and relief in certain things.

59
00:02:57,520 --> 00:03:00,880
Speaker 1: Lots of head turns, lots of thumbs up, lots of smiles,

60
00:03:01,160 --> 00:03:03,200
Speaker 1: and you know it makes me feel good, is the

61
00:03:03,200 --> 00:03:06,480
Speaker 1: guy driving the hot rod that something I created, this

62
00:03:06,560 --> 00:03:09,480
Speaker 1: vision of what I wanted a Chevy to look like,

63
00:03:09,639 --> 00:03:13,040
Speaker 1: is making other people happy. It brings them joy, It

64
00:03:13,080 --> 00:03:16,239
Speaker 1: brings them that jolt of caffeine that they're not getting

65
00:03:16,240 --> 00:03:19,160
Speaker 1: by drinking coffee, but they're you know, they're getting it. Visually,

66
00:03:20,200 --> 00:03:23,280
Speaker 1: we came out of the chiropractor's office and there were

67
00:03:23,320 --> 00:03:25,919
Speaker 1: there's a road crew. They're they're putting a traffic light

68
00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:30,639
Speaker 1: in and um, you know this, this black fifty five

69
00:03:30,720 --> 00:03:33,920
Speaker 1: Chevy comes around the corner of the doctor's office, open headers,

70
00:03:34,080 --> 00:03:38,800
Speaker 1: and you know, they all look up, older guys and

71
00:03:39,080 --> 00:03:41,680
Speaker 1: they're kind of looking and the one guy goes fifty

72
00:03:41,680 --> 00:03:43,720
Speaker 1: five and I went yeah, and he goes it sounds good.

73
00:03:43,760 --> 00:03:46,920
Speaker 1: He goes great car. He said thank you, and there

74
00:03:46,960 --> 00:03:50,440
Speaker 1: was that instant bond of brotherhood. He understood what I

75
00:03:50,520 --> 00:03:52,080
Speaker 1: was trying to do and what I was about, and

76
00:03:52,080 --> 00:03:54,360
Speaker 1: I understood where he was coming from. For all I know,

77
00:03:54,400 --> 00:03:56,040
Speaker 1: he's got one at home in his garage or he

78
00:03:56,080 --> 00:03:58,440
Speaker 1: had one, and he's remembering it. And I think that's

79
00:03:58,480 --> 00:04:00,600
Speaker 1: what it is about hot rods. There's a memory of

80
00:04:00,640 --> 00:04:05,040
Speaker 1: a of a different time. It's a gentler time gone by.

81
00:04:05,600 --> 00:04:07,440
Speaker 1: You know, you look at YouTube and you see people

82
00:04:07,480 --> 00:04:09,840
Speaker 1: at cruise Nights and you're taking pictures of older cars

83
00:04:09,840 --> 00:04:12,200
Speaker 1: coming into cruise nights, or you go to cruise Nights

84
00:04:12,200 --> 00:04:15,400
Speaker 1: and you see these older cars coming in and you

85
00:04:15,600 --> 00:04:18,680
Speaker 1: think you're seeing the end of an era. You're seeing

86
00:04:18,720 --> 00:04:21,839
Speaker 1: the end because it's not what it once was. It's

87
00:04:21,839 --> 00:04:25,320
Speaker 1: it's it's less. And as this generation gets older, the

88
00:04:25,400 --> 00:04:26,920
Speaker 1: kids are gonna pick it up, but not at the

89
00:04:26,960 --> 00:04:30,160
Speaker 1: same frenetic pace because they don't have the availability of

90
00:04:30,200 --> 00:04:32,640
Speaker 1: cars being churned out of the factory the way they

91
00:04:32,640 --> 00:04:36,640
Speaker 1: were in such large numbers that they're gonna miss this

92
00:04:37,279 --> 00:04:40,039
Speaker 1: and it's gonna be gone soon, well not soon, but

93
00:04:40,279 --> 00:04:42,880
Speaker 1: it'll be gone at some point. You know, twenty years

94
00:04:42,880 --> 00:04:45,800
Speaker 1: from now, it's gonna look very different. We were talking

95
00:04:45,880 --> 00:04:48,200
Speaker 1: last week about the hot road of today, that zero

96
00:04:48,279 --> 00:04:51,479
Speaker 1: six Corvette, that hell Cat charger, you know that that

97
00:04:51,680 --> 00:04:56,240
Speaker 1: Ford must stang with with performance packages in fifteen or

98
00:04:56,240 --> 00:05:00,200
Speaker 1: twenty years when they don't make computer chips for that car. More,

99
00:05:00,240 --> 00:05:02,839
Speaker 1: when they don't, they're not able to reproduce the computer

100
00:05:02,960 --> 00:05:07,080
Speaker 1: module that goes bad in inevitably, eventually, what will that become.

101
00:05:07,120 --> 00:05:10,240
Speaker 1: It will be very different. It's not like a fifty

102
00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:12,960
Speaker 1: five Chevy or a sixty eight Camaro or or a

103
00:05:13,040 --> 00:05:16,839
Speaker 1: seventy Dodge Charger, something that was very mechanical and very

104
00:05:16,960 --> 00:05:20,440
Speaker 1: nuts and bolts and able to be repaired, restored and

105
00:05:20,440 --> 00:05:23,479
Speaker 1: and and so on. But as I pulled out of

106
00:05:23,480 --> 00:05:26,760
Speaker 1: the parking lot going back to the chiropractor, you know,

107
00:05:28,080 --> 00:05:31,280
Speaker 1: hot rodger are about respect too. I couldn't get out

108
00:05:31,279 --> 00:05:33,240
Speaker 1: of the parking lot. I'm trying to get out and

109
00:05:33,240 --> 00:05:36,400
Speaker 1: they've got traffic cone set up, and you know, I'm

110
00:05:36,400 --> 00:05:38,240
Speaker 1: looking to the right and I have to cross over

111
00:05:38,279 --> 00:05:40,840
Speaker 1: what's a blocked off lane And it's a real bad

112
00:05:40,880 --> 00:05:45,039
Speaker 1: spot to get out of now. And the guys working

113
00:05:45,120 --> 00:05:49,760
Speaker 1: constructions saw it. The guys working construction just all walked

114
00:05:49,760 --> 00:05:52,400
Speaker 1: out to the road and made like a little bit

115
00:05:52,440 --> 00:05:55,320
Speaker 1: of a human chain gang kind of blocked traffic and

116
00:05:55,360 --> 00:05:58,400
Speaker 1: waved me out and held traffic up. And I got

117
00:05:58,400 --> 00:05:59,760
Speaker 1: the tip of the hat from all of them, and

118
00:06:00,160 --> 00:06:01,640
Speaker 1: I gave him a blast of the pipes. Why not

119
00:06:01,720 --> 00:06:06,880
Speaker 1: pulled second gear? And you know, if you're driving, if

120
00:06:06,920 --> 00:06:10,160
Speaker 1: you were driving a Toyota camera, I don't think anybody

121
00:06:10,160 --> 00:06:13,080
Speaker 1: would do that. And it just you know, what is

122
00:06:13,120 --> 00:06:17,000
Speaker 1: it about hot rods or hot rods that a spree

123
00:06:17,040 --> 00:06:21,440
Speaker 1: tocor that that are they that missing passion that we

124
00:06:21,520 --> 00:06:24,800
Speaker 1: don't have for cars like we once did. And I

125
00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:27,120
Speaker 1: just look at that and every time I drive it,

126
00:06:27,200 --> 00:06:28,600
Speaker 1: you know, every once in a while you get you

127
00:06:28,640 --> 00:06:29,840
Speaker 1: get in the car and you go, GEO, I really

128
00:06:29,839 --> 00:06:32,039
Speaker 1: want to keep driving this. It's it's it's it's loud,

129
00:06:32,040 --> 00:06:34,360
Speaker 1: it's noisy, it's old. It's I gotta keep it clean.

130
00:06:34,400 --> 00:06:36,160
Speaker 1: It's all that's to do. And da da da da.

131
00:06:36,240 --> 00:06:41,679
Speaker 1: And you know, it's a lifestyle. And and it brings

132
00:06:41,680 --> 00:06:43,920
Speaker 1: me back to what I always say about cars, cars

133
00:06:43,960 --> 00:06:46,480
Speaker 1: to a large degree or a lifestyle. Does the car

134
00:06:46,560 --> 00:06:50,479
Speaker 1: we drive represent who we are and what we are?

135
00:06:50,960 --> 00:06:53,520
Speaker 1: You know, are we a minivan? Are we a Toyota camera?

136
00:06:53,640 --> 00:06:56,400
Speaker 1: Are we a Chevy Equinox? Is that what we've become?

137
00:06:56,839 --> 00:06:59,520
Speaker 1: And you know, where's that fun and where's that passion?

138
00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:02,280
Speaker 1: You know, summer summer went by really quick this year,

139
00:07:02,440 --> 00:07:05,000
Speaker 1: you know, it did it just it became it was

140
00:07:05,040 --> 00:07:08,120
Speaker 1: a blink and summer was over, and partly because of

141
00:07:08,120 --> 00:07:10,280
Speaker 1: the pandemic, and we couldn't go anywhere and we couldn't

142
00:07:10,320 --> 00:07:13,280
Speaker 1: do what we needed to do. And as I said

143
00:07:13,280 --> 00:07:15,320
Speaker 1: to Susie today, I said, yeah, I know summer went

144
00:07:15,360 --> 00:07:18,120
Speaker 1: by fast, and I know vacation just wasn't there. But

145
00:07:18,680 --> 00:07:20,120
Speaker 1: you know, you got to grab it in the little

146
00:07:20,160 --> 00:07:22,040
Speaker 1: spots along the way. You've got to get out and

147
00:07:22,480 --> 00:07:24,960
Speaker 1: you know, bang a gear, take it out, make some noise,

148
00:07:25,240 --> 00:07:27,520
Speaker 1: put some smile on people's faces, and in turn, that

149
00:07:27,520 --> 00:07:30,880
Speaker 1: puts a smile on your face. And we have that

150
00:07:30,920 --> 00:07:33,680
Speaker 1: ability to do so. And I don't think driving the

151
00:07:33,760 --> 00:07:36,680
Speaker 1: eighteen Ford Explorer does that for us or them, but

152
00:07:36,800 --> 00:07:39,640
Speaker 1: driving the black two door fifty five with loud exhaust

153
00:07:39,960 --> 00:07:42,680
Speaker 1: surely does for me and everybody around it. And it's

154
00:07:42,720 --> 00:07:45,440
Speaker 1: just a question, just a thought, you know, I'd love

155
00:07:45,480 --> 00:07:47,920
Speaker 1: to hear your comments and ideas. Are hot rods a

156
00:07:48,040 --> 00:07:53,240
Speaker 1: reminder of gentler times gone by? And what is that attraction?

157
00:07:53,320 --> 00:07:58,080
Speaker 1: What makes us so attracted to it? And um, it's

158
00:07:58,120 --> 00:08:00,960
Speaker 1: just something to think about. I I I look forward

185
00:09:25,000 --> 00:09:27,760
Speaker 1: and see my main man up in Maine. Ha ha, Micah, Micah,

186
00:09:27,800 --> 00:09:31,640
Speaker 1: how are you today? I'm doing great? And you know

187
00:09:31,679 --> 00:09:33,520
Speaker 1: the first thing I really need to say, because I

188
00:09:33,520 --> 00:09:35,839
Speaker 1: don't think it was mentioned, uh, and it's a little late,

189
00:09:35,920 --> 00:09:38,760
Speaker 1: although you've probably heard from me already. Happy birthday, Ron,

190
00:09:38,800 --> 00:09:41,400
Speaker 1: Thank you, another another year gone by. I get ready

191
00:09:41,400 --> 00:09:43,880
Speaker 1: for my next trip around the sun. So I'm looking

192
00:09:43,880 --> 00:09:46,320
Speaker 1: forward to absolutely so. But thank you. What's going on?

193
00:09:46,400 --> 00:09:49,520
Speaker 1: You know? A couple of months, a couple of months ago,

194
00:09:49,559 --> 00:09:51,520
Speaker 1: I called in and I asked you your opinion on

195
00:09:51,640 --> 00:09:53,880
Speaker 1: getting my car ceramic coded, and you thought it was

196
00:09:53,920 --> 00:09:56,000
Speaker 1: a good idea, and I didn't disagree. I just needed

197
00:09:56,000 --> 00:09:58,800
Speaker 1: another opinion, and I did it. And I wanted to

198
00:09:58,960 --> 00:10:01,880
Speaker 1: report back to you and tell you about this amazing

199
00:10:01,920 --> 00:10:04,720
Speaker 1: product or this this amazing, reasonably new thing. I guess

200
00:10:04,720 --> 00:10:07,280
Speaker 1: it's kind of a newer way that they're treating cars

201
00:10:07,320 --> 00:10:11,200
Speaker 1: as opposed to waxing in terms of detailing. It's and

202
00:10:11,240 --> 00:10:14,000
Speaker 1: it's making quite a difference. What product did you use, Mica?

203
00:10:15,520 --> 00:10:17,640
Speaker 1: You know, I'm sorry to say I don't know the

204
00:10:17,720 --> 00:10:19,559
Speaker 1: name of the actual product because I brought it to

205
00:10:19,640 --> 00:10:23,120
Speaker 1: a detail shop that does this professionally, and they said,

206
00:10:23,160 --> 00:10:25,280
Speaker 1: do you want the uh, you know, the three year,

207
00:10:25,360 --> 00:10:27,320
Speaker 1: the five year, or the nine year warranty? And I

208
00:10:27,360 --> 00:10:29,080
Speaker 1: asked for the difference in the prices, and for me,

209
00:10:29,160 --> 00:10:31,360
Speaker 1: the price was right to go right for the nine

210
00:10:31,440 --> 00:10:34,040
Speaker 1: year warranty on it, And so I just know it's

211
00:10:34,040 --> 00:10:35,880
Speaker 1: a it's a it's a very very good one. And

212
00:10:35,920 --> 00:10:37,840
Speaker 1: it's a process to do. I had to drop the

213
00:10:37,880 --> 00:10:39,760
Speaker 1: car off with him on a Monday. He said he

214
00:10:39,800 --> 00:10:43,000
Speaker 1: was gonna keep it for the whole week because you've

215
00:10:43,080 --> 00:10:45,000
Speaker 1: actually got to, you know, I guess, bring the paint

216
00:10:45,080 --> 00:10:47,560
Speaker 1: right down to the to the bare flesh more or less,

217
00:10:47,600 --> 00:10:49,959
Speaker 1: and and clean it up. And and he had it

218
00:10:50,080 --> 00:10:51,560
Speaker 1: for the whole week and gave it back to me,

219
00:10:51,640 --> 00:10:54,040
Speaker 1: and and he it looked gorgeous when he gave it

220
00:10:54,040 --> 00:10:55,680
Speaker 1: to me. But he said, I don't want you to

221
00:10:55,679 --> 00:10:57,400
Speaker 1: wash it. I don't want you to do anything with

222
00:10:57,480 --> 00:11:00,480
Speaker 1: it for two weeks and then come back because I

223
00:11:00,480 --> 00:11:02,320
Speaker 1: wanted to do a final touch up and give it

224
00:11:02,320 --> 00:11:05,240
Speaker 1: its first wash, to go over everything. And it was

225
00:11:05,320 --> 00:11:07,600
Speaker 1: driving me nuts because you know, I like to maintain

226
00:11:07,640 --> 00:11:09,440
Speaker 1: my car, and i'd like to keep the pollen off it,

227
00:11:09,480 --> 00:11:11,160
Speaker 1: and I'd like to make sure the windows are clean,

228
00:11:11,280 --> 00:11:15,600
Speaker 1: and and and but and I called him a week

229
00:11:15,720 --> 00:11:17,160
Speaker 1: later and I said, you're sure I can't go through

230
00:11:17,160 --> 00:11:19,840
Speaker 1: a car wash? And touch was car wash because he

231
00:11:19,880 --> 00:11:22,920
Speaker 1: insisted that I fight he does the project, that he

232
00:11:23,080 --> 00:11:24,760
Speaker 1: that I never go through a car wash. It has

233
00:11:24,800 --> 00:11:28,000
Speaker 1: any brushes in it again because it puts on micro abrasions.

234
00:11:28,480 --> 00:11:31,240
Speaker 1: And he said, no, no, Robbie said, don't, don't go

235
00:11:31,280 --> 00:11:33,839
Speaker 1: through anything. Come back to me next week. And so

236
00:11:33,920 --> 00:11:36,520
Speaker 1: I did, and he touched it up, and even he

237
00:11:36,520 --> 00:11:38,840
Speaker 1: couldn't believe actually how good it was. He had some

238
00:11:38,920 --> 00:11:41,800
Speaker 1: kids working on it and there were beads of water

239
00:11:41,920 --> 00:11:43,960
Speaker 1: on the hood so big that a kid took his

240
00:11:44,040 --> 00:11:47,320
Speaker 1: finger and starts moving the bead of water around on

241
00:11:47,360 --> 00:11:50,040
Speaker 1: the hood with his finger. It just would not cling

242
00:11:50,080 --> 00:11:54,880
Speaker 1: and would not cheat and would not break down. And

243
00:11:52,840 --> 00:11:59,520
Speaker 1: this this was a ceramic coat, incorrect ceramic coating on

244
00:11:59,559 --> 00:12:02,280
Speaker 1: a five year old soup brew legacy that was in

245
00:12:02,280 --> 00:12:04,120
Speaker 1: good shape. Don't get me wrong. You know it had

246
00:12:04,160 --> 00:12:07,000
Speaker 1: some micro abrasions from going through car washes, but he

247
00:12:07,000 --> 00:12:09,240
Speaker 1: was able to get most of them out and it

248
00:12:09,280 --> 00:12:12,560
Speaker 1: looks better than it did new. And he also put

249
00:12:12,559 --> 00:12:14,480
Speaker 1: on it as part of the process as a product

250
00:12:14,520 --> 00:12:20,040
Speaker 1: called glass parency that he describes as not your father's

251
00:12:20,120 --> 00:12:23,560
Speaker 1: rain x. It's a product that actually bonds to the

252
00:12:23,559 --> 00:12:27,199
Speaker 1: windshield to all the glass and it's good for ten years.

253
00:12:27,320 --> 00:12:30,760
Speaker 1: And I saw it happen today. I got pollen all

254
00:12:30,760 --> 00:12:33,600
Speaker 1: over the car. Didn't use my wipers, didn't use my washer.

255
00:12:33,640 --> 00:12:35,760
Speaker 1: I just drove away and it just blew off with

256
00:12:35,800 --> 00:12:39,600
Speaker 1: the wind. Yeah, I've I've heard of class glass parency before,

257
00:12:39,640 --> 00:12:42,599
Speaker 1: and I'm I'm curious. I'm looking to get some of

258
00:12:42,640 --> 00:12:46,719
Speaker 1: myself to try it because, um, you know, it's it

259
00:12:47,080 --> 00:12:50,360
Speaker 1: is the next evolution and cleaning glass and you know,

260
00:12:50,480 --> 00:12:52,840
Speaker 1: just some really neat stuff. Science is really taking us

261
00:12:52,880 --> 00:12:55,640
Speaker 1: a long way and taking care of cars beyond just

262
00:12:55,760 --> 00:12:57,920
Speaker 1: wax and rain x. One of the things I never

263
00:12:58,000 --> 00:13:00,320
Speaker 1: liked about rain x was it was always up on

264
00:13:00,360 --> 00:13:03,720
Speaker 1: wiper blades. And I hear quite the opposite with glass parency,

265
00:13:03,760 --> 00:13:06,760
Speaker 1: that it's it's not an issue. So, uh, you know this,

266
00:13:06,920 --> 00:13:08,920
Speaker 1: this may be the next best thing for the next

267
00:13:08,920 --> 00:13:10,720
Speaker 1: greatest thing, I guess is the way I could say it.

268
00:13:11,440 --> 00:13:14,920
Speaker 1: Uh you know so, Um, well good. I'm glad, you know, Mike.

269
00:13:14,960 --> 00:13:17,600
Speaker 1: I I look to you for your insight because you've

270
00:13:17,640 --> 00:13:19,400
Speaker 1: got your ear to the ground like a lot of people,

271
00:13:19,440 --> 00:13:22,240
Speaker 1: and uh, your reports are important, So you just keep

272
00:13:22,280 --> 00:13:26,040
Speaker 1: them coming, all right, kiddo. I absolutely will. And I

273
00:13:26,080 --> 00:13:28,280
Speaker 1: want to ask your opinion on something else that I'm

274
00:13:28,320 --> 00:13:31,560
Speaker 1: thinking about doing. I know I've heard you mentioned it before. Uh,

275
00:13:31,640 --> 00:13:33,800
Speaker 1: there's a place here that will do fluid film on

276
00:13:33,840 --> 00:13:36,240
Speaker 1: the bottom of my car. It charges about two d

277
00:13:36,360 --> 00:13:38,680
Speaker 1: and sixty dollars for it, which I'm not sure whether

278
00:13:38,720 --> 00:13:41,160
Speaker 1: that's a good price or a bad price. Again, as

279
00:13:41,200 --> 00:13:44,040
Speaker 1: you know, I'm not so concerned about the price as

280
00:13:44,520 --> 00:13:46,880
Speaker 1: the service that I'm getting. And I'm wondering how you

281
00:13:46,920 --> 00:13:50,120
Speaker 1: feel about a complete undercoding or fluid film treatment on

282
00:13:50,160 --> 00:13:52,480
Speaker 1: the bottom of the car. I do fluid film to

283
00:13:52,840 --> 00:13:55,600
Speaker 1: my own family vehicles and the plow truck at the

284
00:13:55,640 --> 00:13:59,840
Speaker 1: beginning of every winter, So I I like the idea.

285
00:14:00,040 --> 00:14:03,080
Speaker 1: I think fluid film is great stuff. I you know,

286
00:14:03,280 --> 00:14:06,360
Speaker 1: I guess the price maybe they're doing it somehow a

287
00:14:06,400 --> 00:14:10,160
Speaker 1: little different. I can't remember what the cans cost. I'm

288
00:14:10,160 --> 00:14:14,520
Speaker 1: gonna say the cans are, you know, I'm guessing Micah,

289
00:14:14,559 --> 00:14:17,560
Speaker 1: maybe in the thirty dollars a can range. I can't recall.

290
00:14:17,640 --> 00:14:20,440
Speaker 1: It's been a while since I bought some. But I

291
00:14:20,480 --> 00:14:22,840
Speaker 1: guess maybe they're doing it at a professional level. They're

292
00:14:22,880 --> 00:14:26,400
Speaker 1: masking things off, they're really giving a serious coding, uh,

293
00:14:26,440 --> 00:14:28,680
Speaker 1: you know, because it's really something you could do on

294
00:14:28,720 --> 00:14:31,320
Speaker 1: your own with a lift and a little bit of patients.

295
00:14:31,400 --> 00:14:35,040
Speaker 1: But you know, getting the workspace and getting everything set up,

296
00:14:35,080 --> 00:14:39,360
Speaker 1: that's another story. So, uh, you know, I would just question.

297
00:14:39,800 --> 00:14:42,280
Speaker 1: I would look up the price of fluid film. You know,

298
00:14:42,320 --> 00:14:44,920
Speaker 1: it just seems like a lot, because if it's I

299
00:14:44,960 --> 00:14:47,120
Speaker 1: can't imagine it taking more than two hours. If a

300
00:14:47,160 --> 00:14:49,800
Speaker 1: shop is, I don't know, what are they you know,

301
00:14:51,280 --> 00:14:53,960
Speaker 1: an hour? There's two hundred two cans of fluid films

302
00:14:53,960 --> 00:14:56,040
Speaker 1: to sixty Maybe that's what they're thinking, but I can't

303
00:14:56,080 --> 00:14:59,640
Speaker 1: imagine it's taking two hours. Could it be two hours?

304
00:15:00,040 --> 00:15:02,800
Speaker 1: It just doesn't. The price seems a little high. I'll

305
00:15:02,880 --> 00:15:05,000
Speaker 1: leave it there. I'd ask, I'd ask for what I'm

306
00:15:05,000 --> 00:15:07,360
Speaker 1: looking at. A can of fluid film. Just went to Amazon,

307
00:15:07,480 --> 00:15:09,400
Speaker 1: pulled up a can of fluid film runs about forty

308
00:15:09,400 --> 00:15:12,360
Speaker 1: bucks a can. Okay, so so you know how many

309
00:15:12,400 --> 00:15:14,920
Speaker 1: cans do they estimate the car is gonna take? You know,

310
00:15:15,080 --> 00:15:18,760
Speaker 1: a can I will use. I will use about a

311
00:15:18,800 --> 00:15:22,320
Speaker 1: can and a half on a FOURD escape. And that's

312
00:15:22,520 --> 00:15:25,160
Speaker 1: that's code. That's about the same size as my legacy, right,

313
00:15:25,400 --> 00:15:29,520
Speaker 1: that's that's coding everything. So you know, listen, everybody's entitled

314
00:15:29,520 --> 00:15:31,840
Speaker 1: to make a profit. I get that. I'm just saying,

315
00:15:32,400 --> 00:15:35,040
Speaker 1: you know, it does wash off it's gonna have to

316
00:15:35,080 --> 00:15:38,040
Speaker 1: be done every year, so over time, it's you know,

317
00:15:38,120 --> 00:15:40,960
Speaker 1: it's it's to me, it's an hour of shop time

318
00:15:40,960 --> 00:15:42,880
Speaker 1: and a couple of cans. I don't know where they're

319
00:15:42,880 --> 00:15:45,640
Speaker 1: coming up with their numbers, so um, you know, I

320
00:15:45,680 --> 00:15:49,240
Speaker 1: would just I would just question that. I'll check with

321
00:15:49,320 --> 00:15:51,520
Speaker 1: him and see what he has to say. But but

322
00:15:51,560 --> 00:15:53,480
Speaker 1: I just wanted to know how you felt about the product.

323
00:15:53,480 --> 00:15:57,200
Speaker 1: And now I know pursuing product product works, you know,

324
00:15:57,320 --> 00:16:00,360
Speaker 1: short of short of painting the undercarriage, and I'll I'll

325
00:16:00,400 --> 00:16:02,720
Speaker 1: paint the undercarriage of some of the vehicles and use

326
00:16:02,760 --> 00:16:05,760
Speaker 1: fluid film, especially the ones like the plow truck which

327
00:16:05,800 --> 00:16:08,200
Speaker 1: is out in the salt all the time. So fluid

328
00:16:08,240 --> 00:16:11,880
Speaker 1: film works really well, it really does all right. Well,

329
00:16:11,880 --> 00:16:13,240
Speaker 1: you know up here in Maine we get a lot

330
00:16:13,280 --> 00:16:15,400
Speaker 1: of salt and everything, and I always go through you know,

331
00:16:15,440 --> 00:16:16,840
Speaker 1: when I went through the car wash, I did the

332
00:16:16,920 --> 00:16:18,920
Speaker 1: underbody wash to try to get that off as much

333
00:16:18,920 --> 00:16:21,280
Speaker 1: as I could. But it's been I've had it for

334
00:16:21,320 --> 00:16:23,280
Speaker 1: five years now, so I've had five years of sault.

335
00:16:23,560 --> 00:16:25,720
Speaker 1: Seems to make sense that there's no rust on it

336
00:16:25,720 --> 00:16:28,120
Speaker 1: now to continue to protect it, right, and you must

337
00:16:28,120 --> 00:16:30,800
Speaker 1: be using a good car wash because and I'll leave

338
00:16:30,840 --> 00:16:34,840
Speaker 1: it here, some of the car washes I notice are

339
00:16:34,960 --> 00:16:37,640
Speaker 1: using recycled water. And this is this is a big

340
00:16:37,680 --> 00:16:40,520
Speaker 1: debate in the industry. You know, how does the car

341
00:16:40,600 --> 00:16:43,640
Speaker 1: wash clean its water or recycle its water or are

342
00:16:43,640 --> 00:16:47,280
Speaker 1: they using fresh water for the rents but recycled water

343
00:16:47,360 --> 00:16:49,040
Speaker 1: for the clean part. And I've I've heard a lot

344
00:16:49,040 --> 00:16:51,880
Speaker 1: of arguments and conversations on both sides. But if the

345
00:16:51,920 --> 00:16:55,480
Speaker 1: car isn't rusting five years later, whatever car wash you're

346
00:16:55,600 --> 00:16:58,360
Speaker 1: using is doing the recycling or the cleaning of the

347
00:16:58,400 --> 00:17:02,160
Speaker 1: water correctly, because some car washes don't clean as efficiently

348
00:17:02,160 --> 00:17:05,080
Speaker 1: as they could, and they're putting dirty water back on

349
00:17:05,200 --> 00:17:09,240
Speaker 1: the car after the fact, and that just makes you know,

350
00:17:09,520 --> 00:17:12,399
Speaker 1: that just makes a whole big mess, that makes it worse.

351
00:17:12,400 --> 00:17:17,800
Speaker 1: That's that's spraying it with Brian right exactly. So wherever

352
00:17:17,880 --> 00:17:20,520
Speaker 1: you're going, just keep it in mind. You you know,

353
00:17:20,560 --> 00:17:23,600
Speaker 1: you have to ask them, Hey, did they recycle their water? Uh?

354
00:17:23,640 --> 00:17:25,359
Speaker 1: You know, I've I've talked to a few car wash

355
00:17:25,440 --> 00:17:28,040
Speaker 1: places here in New Jersey and some do some look

356
00:17:28,080 --> 00:17:31,080
Speaker 1: at me like, um, what do we do what? And

357
00:17:31,359 --> 00:17:33,320
Speaker 1: some of them will actually take in you know, I

358
00:17:33,480 --> 00:17:34,840
Speaker 1: tell them who I am and they'll take you in

359
00:17:34,880 --> 00:17:36,960
Speaker 1: and they'll show you the filtration and uh, you know,

360
00:17:37,000 --> 00:17:38,880
Speaker 1: some of them go to great links to to really

361
00:17:38,880 --> 00:17:41,240
Speaker 1: do a good job. A well run car wash. There's

362
00:17:41,280 --> 00:17:44,879
Speaker 1: a reason why a car wash charges. Some car washes

363
00:17:44,960 --> 00:17:47,160
Speaker 1: charge a bit more money. I think because they're doing

364
00:17:47,160 --> 00:17:49,280
Speaker 1: a better job and they take better care of their equipment.

365
00:17:49,359 --> 00:17:52,400
Speaker 1: So um as always, Mike, A pleasure, sir you uh

366
00:17:52,680 --> 00:17:54,399

373
00:18:39,280 --> 00:18:42,240
Speaker 1: checking in on Facebook. Rights, Hey, Ron. Hot rods are

374
00:18:42,280 --> 00:18:45,720
Speaker 1: at the core of reminding us of a better, simpler time.

375
00:18:46,200 --> 00:18:49,960
Speaker 1: There was a romance. Most men, women and kids feel

376
00:18:50,000 --> 00:18:51,960
Speaker 1: that connection, you know, Brian, I couldn't have said it

377
00:18:52,000 --> 00:18:54,040
Speaker 1: better myself, and I think you said what I was

378
00:18:54,040 --> 00:18:56,880
Speaker 1: trying to say that. Yeah, hot rods are that connection

379
00:18:57,240 --> 00:18:59,720
Speaker 1: to a simpler time, and there is a romance about

380
00:18:59,720 --> 00:19:03,159
Speaker 1: hot rods. It's that memories of childhood and memories of

381
00:19:03,240 --> 00:19:05,840
Speaker 1: days gone by, memories of you know, when it was

382
00:19:05,920 --> 00:19:08,280
Speaker 1: just so much more than get in the car and

383
00:19:08,320 --> 00:19:10,600
Speaker 1: go somewhere. It was let's get in the car and

384
00:19:10,680 --> 00:19:13,679
Speaker 1: go somewhere. How cool was that? Yeah, that's what it

385
00:19:13,720 --> 00:19:16,439
Speaker 1: was about, Brian. I appreciate sharing the thoughts out on

386
00:19:16,480 --> 00:19:18,720
Speaker 1: Facebook on the car doctor page. Thank you very much.

387
00:19:18,840 --> 00:19:20,600
Speaker 1: Let's get out over and talk to Vinnie and Florida

388
00:19:20,600 --> 00:19:23,880
Speaker 1: Oh eight Honda Civic and some things going on here. Vinnie,

389
00:19:23,880 --> 00:19:27,600
Speaker 1: what's going on with this car? Welcome to board. Hey Ron, Thanks,

390
00:19:27,720 --> 00:19:30,120
Speaker 1: I appreciate you taking my call and listened to your

391
00:19:30,440 --> 00:19:36,159
Speaker 1: podcast every week. Two thousand, two thousand and eight. Honda Civic.

392
00:19:36,240 --> 00:19:39,240
Speaker 1: It's my son's card, has about two hundred and eleven

393
00:19:39,280 --> 00:19:43,920
Speaker 1: thousand miles on it. He was driving it and he

394
00:19:44,040 --> 00:19:46,680
Speaker 1: was at a red light. I took his foot off

395
00:19:46,720 --> 00:19:50,880
Speaker 1: the brake, stepped on the gas. Car stalled. We had

396
00:19:50,920 --> 00:19:54,720
Speaker 1: it towed to a dealer and the dealer is saying

397
00:19:54,760 --> 00:19:57,840
Speaker 1: that the car needs a starter, And I was wondering

398
00:19:57,880 --> 00:20:01,280
Speaker 1: what your opinion was on that, because that's seemed a

399
00:20:01,320 --> 00:20:05,760
Speaker 1: little out of the ordinary. Does does the car start? Now, Vinny,

400
00:20:06,600 --> 00:20:10,360
Speaker 1: the car does not start. The car is at the dealer,

401
00:20:10,640 --> 00:20:13,200
Speaker 1: and the dealer is wanting to put a star on it.

402
00:20:13,240 --> 00:20:15,520
Speaker 1: But the car does not turn over at all. It doesn't,

403
00:20:15,840 --> 00:20:20,159
Speaker 1: it doesn't crank, does not crank, and they try jumping

404
00:20:20,200 --> 00:20:25,720
Speaker 1: it offcames unusual to me. That, yeah, that doesn't That

405
00:20:25,800 --> 00:20:29,400
Speaker 1: doesn't make any sense now unless you've got the unique

406
00:20:29,400 --> 00:20:34,199
Speaker 1: experience of having two problems. It's stalled for problem A

407
00:20:34,560 --> 00:20:38,239
Speaker 1: and it doesn't start because the starter died. And you know,

408
00:20:39,040 --> 00:20:41,280
Speaker 1: I mean, it's pretty simple. We could you know, we

409
00:20:41,359 --> 00:20:44,280
Speaker 1: could get the solenoid feed wire down at the starter

410
00:20:44,840 --> 00:20:47,920
Speaker 1: wire in a headlight. If we can light the headlight

411
00:20:47,960 --> 00:20:52,159
Speaker 1: when we turn the key, then yeah, the starter has power,

412
00:20:52,680 --> 00:20:56,480
Speaker 1: but it's not engaging. I mean, let me ask the

413
00:20:56,560 --> 00:20:59,760
Speaker 1: ugly question. Could it be that the car stalled because

414
00:20:59,760 --> 00:21:04,960
Speaker 1: the agencies? You know, that's an excellent question. And I

415
00:21:05,040 --> 00:21:10,439
Speaker 1: asked the service tech that and he says, you know,

416
00:21:10,680 --> 00:21:14,320
Speaker 1: he didn't seem real sure about that. But the same

417
00:21:14,400 --> 00:21:17,120
Speaker 1: dealership had did an oil change on it about three

418
00:21:17,160 --> 00:21:20,600
Speaker 1: weeks before. But you seemed to think that the engine

419
00:21:20,680 --> 00:21:23,920
Speaker 1: did not cease, was his opinion. Well, can we put

420
00:21:23,920 --> 00:21:25,760
Speaker 1: a bolt on the front of the crank or on

421
00:21:25,840 --> 00:21:28,640
Speaker 1: an alternator pulling or something in hand crank it, pull

422
00:21:28,680 --> 00:21:31,840
Speaker 1: all force park plugs out and at two dred thousand

423
00:21:31,880 --> 00:21:34,320
Speaker 1: miles and check the dipstick is there enough oil in it?

424
00:21:34,359 --> 00:21:36,960
Speaker 1: And just see does it's spin over because there's no

425
00:21:37,359 --> 00:21:40,280
Speaker 1: See you're you're if you told me so. If you

426
00:21:40,359 --> 00:21:42,920
Speaker 1: told me they said it needs an alternator, a charging

427
00:21:42,960 --> 00:21:46,800
Speaker 1: system problem, I could buy that. You know, alternators started,

428
00:21:47,240 --> 00:21:50,600
Speaker 1: alternator stopped charging, ran the battery down. You know, if

429
00:21:50,640 --> 00:21:54,720
Speaker 1: you told me that it's stalled and it wouldn't restart,

430
00:21:55,400 --> 00:21:57,320
Speaker 1: or if it cranked and it had like a like

431
00:21:57,359 --> 00:22:00,280
Speaker 1: they've got a problem hondas of that generation, and they'll

432
00:22:00,280 --> 00:22:02,640
Speaker 1: set up zero six eighty five, which is an internal

433
00:22:02,680 --> 00:22:06,080
Speaker 1: memory issue with the PCM, the main engine controller, and

434
00:22:06,119 --> 00:22:08,040
Speaker 1: it'll do just what you're describing. You'll be sitting in

435
00:22:08,080 --> 00:22:10,360
Speaker 1: the traffic light and it's like it just shuts off,

436
00:22:10,400 --> 00:22:13,280
Speaker 1: like it turned off the ke and you know, you

437
00:22:13,400 --> 00:22:15,720
Speaker 1: pull codes. It's got a six eight five memory issue

438
00:22:16,240 --> 00:22:18,520
Speaker 1: and nine times out of ten that's a bad PCM.

439
00:22:18,600 --> 00:22:20,720
Speaker 1: Hand has actually extended the warranty on some of those,

440
00:22:20,720 --> 00:22:22,680
Speaker 1: although I think most of them are out now. Because

441
00:22:22,680 --> 00:22:25,120
Speaker 1: the cars are older. You know. The other thing I've

442
00:22:25,160 --> 00:22:28,160
Speaker 1: seen happen with those cars is down at the transmission

443
00:22:28,200 --> 00:22:31,159
Speaker 1: where the output speed sensor wiring. It will end up

444
00:22:31,200 --> 00:22:34,000
Speaker 1: rubbing an axle if it falls out of its loom,

445
00:22:34,040 --> 00:22:36,960
Speaker 1: and it'll cause a five vault reference shortage of a

446
00:22:37,080 --> 00:22:40,840
Speaker 1: five vault reference short in the feed going to all

447
00:22:40,880 --> 00:22:43,360
Speaker 1: the sensors, and it will turn the car off. But

448
00:22:44,000 --> 00:22:47,199
Speaker 1: a bad starter. Boy, I I'd like to get a

449
00:22:47,240 --> 00:22:51,000
Speaker 1: mechanical explanation on that one. Yeah, I didn't. It didn't

450
00:22:51,000 --> 00:22:53,120
Speaker 1: make sense to me. And then I asked them if

451
00:22:53,240 --> 00:22:56,640
Speaker 1: they scanned it for codes, and he was like, well,

452
00:22:56,640 --> 00:22:58,879
Speaker 1: why would we do that? You know? So I was

453
00:22:58,920 --> 00:23:06,520
Speaker 1: a little consiserable concerned. Wow, I'm a little concerned. That's yeah,

454
00:23:06,720 --> 00:23:09,320
Speaker 1: have Anny. I gotta tell you, brother, I'm trying to think.

455
00:23:09,680 --> 00:23:13,399
Speaker 1: You know, a week ago, did you hear the story

456
00:23:13,400 --> 00:23:18,399
Speaker 1: about the directional and the Mercury Montego. You got to

457
00:23:18,480 --> 00:23:20,119
Speaker 1: catch that show. I think it was last week or

458
00:23:20,119 --> 00:23:22,119
Speaker 1: the week before. So we had a Mercury Montego came

459
00:23:22,160 --> 00:23:25,040
Speaker 1: in the shop and the left rear directional did not work.

460
00:23:26,119 --> 00:23:29,359
Speaker 1: And the gist of the story was, I've always said

461
00:23:29,400 --> 00:23:31,600
Speaker 1: to my guys, I said, sooner or later, we're gonna

462
00:23:31,640 --> 00:23:33,399
Speaker 1: have one that's not a ball, but it's gonna it's

463
00:23:33,400 --> 00:23:35,240
Speaker 1: gonna be a computer, and we're just gonna be stunned

464
00:23:35,240 --> 00:23:37,600
Speaker 1: when it happens, because it does happen from time to time.

465
00:23:37,640 --> 00:23:39,480
Speaker 1: But then after a while you kind of forget and

466
00:23:39,480 --> 00:23:41,320
Speaker 1: you get back into the day to day of fixing cars,

467
00:23:41,320 --> 00:23:42,920
Speaker 1: and it's always it's a ball. It's a ball, but

468
00:23:42,960 --> 00:23:45,879
Speaker 1: it's a bulb. Had an oh five Mercury Montigo, and

469
00:23:45,920 --> 00:23:47,520
Speaker 1: it's been a while since I've had one do this

470
00:23:47,600 --> 00:23:51,520
Speaker 1: to me that it wasn't the bulb, it was actually

471
00:23:51,560 --> 00:23:56,120
Speaker 1: a computer module that they feed the directionals on this Montigo.

472
00:23:56,200 --> 00:23:59,080
Speaker 1: It's a European style wiring system from fifteen years ago

473
00:23:59,680 --> 00:24:04,399
Speaker 1: that it actually feeds the directionals off of the smart

474
00:24:04,480 --> 00:24:06,880
Speaker 1: junction box or the GEM module under the left side

475
00:24:06,880 --> 00:24:10,080
Speaker 1: of the dash. And the way I came to that

476
00:24:10,200 --> 00:24:12,000
Speaker 1: was when I said, you know, these numbers aren't making

477
00:24:12,040 --> 00:24:14,160
Speaker 1: any sense. I'm not getting correct voltage read I'm getting

478
00:24:14,200 --> 00:24:16,200
Speaker 1: a five point eight volts and eight point two volts

479
00:24:16,200 --> 00:24:18,639
Speaker 1: and I'm getting all kinds of crazy voltage on. I

480
00:24:18,680 --> 00:24:21,200
Speaker 1: said to myself, this is a bias voltage. I'm seeing

481
00:24:21,200 --> 00:24:24,600
Speaker 1: bias voltage on a computer circuit that's feeding voltage out

482
00:24:24,640 --> 00:24:27,359
Speaker 1: to see as the circuit gout continuity to it. There's

483
00:24:27,400 --> 00:24:31,080
Speaker 1: something askew here. Long story short or short as I

484
00:24:31,080 --> 00:24:34,359
Speaker 1: can make it. I pulled codes and I believe it

485
00:24:34,400 --> 00:24:38,600
Speaker 1: was setting a B two zero four five left rear

486
00:24:38,640 --> 00:24:43,280
Speaker 1: directional circuit open full. I went, wow, I've got a

487
00:24:43,320 --> 00:24:47,080
Speaker 1: computer telling one not allowing a directional bulb to light.

488
00:24:48,040 --> 00:24:53,159
Speaker 1: And it brought me back to I've said this for

489
00:24:53,200 --> 00:24:55,879
Speaker 1: a long time. You've got to scan a car. You know,

490
00:24:56,160 --> 00:24:58,560
Speaker 1: there's gotta be like that, that ten or twelve things

491
00:24:58,600 --> 00:25:01,199
Speaker 1: that you do on every diagnosed US and you know,

492
00:25:01,359 --> 00:25:04,840
Speaker 1: fuel pressure, scan it for codes, road test the car, visual,

493
00:25:04,960 --> 00:25:08,480
Speaker 1: how tight are the battery terminals? You know, a general

494
00:25:08,520 --> 00:25:11,320
Speaker 1: look around under the hood. You know, are there any

495
00:25:11,359 --> 00:25:14,000
Speaker 1: signs of animals living under the intake manifold all the

496
00:25:14,040 --> 00:25:16,600
Speaker 1: crazy things you start to look for, and you know,

497
00:25:16,680 --> 00:25:19,160
Speaker 1: you kind of go through that list. If that car

498
00:25:19,320 --> 00:25:22,000
Speaker 1: came in, if that car came into that dealership and

499
00:25:22,040 --> 00:25:25,320
Speaker 1: they didn't scan that, here's what you do right now.

500
00:25:25,320 --> 00:25:27,439
Speaker 1: You got to get it in writing, ask for a

501
00:25:27,440 --> 00:25:31,639
Speaker 1: written estimate, first starter replacement and make sure that that

502
00:25:31,760 --> 00:25:34,440
Speaker 1: estimate states this is what's wrong with the car, and

503
00:25:34,480 --> 00:25:37,320
Speaker 1: this will fix the car. Then let him go ahead

504
00:25:37,320 --> 00:25:40,440
Speaker 1: and do it. Let him go ahead and do it,

505
00:25:41,440 --> 00:25:45,920
Speaker 1: because if it's in writing, you know, everybody, everybody is

506
00:25:45,960 --> 00:25:48,280
Speaker 1: in agreement that this is the problem with the vehicle

507
00:25:48,520 --> 00:25:50,639
Speaker 1: until they have to put it in writing. How much

508
00:25:50,720 --> 00:25:53,520
Speaker 1: confidence do they have in their repair the fact that

509
00:25:53,560 --> 00:25:57,000
Speaker 1: they didn't pull codes? You know, code code scanning isn't

510
00:25:57,080 --> 00:25:59,640
Speaker 1: rocket science. It's plugging in and walk away. I mean,

511
00:25:59,680 --> 00:26:02,119
Speaker 1: it's time. It should be part of a diagnosis. And you,

512
00:26:02,160 --> 00:26:05,400
Speaker 1: as the consumer, you're obligating. You should pay for a diagnosis.

513
00:26:06,440 --> 00:26:09,639
Speaker 1: You know, it protects you. You know why, you know

514
00:26:09,640 --> 00:26:12,040
Speaker 1: why you want to pay for a diagnosis, Vinnie. It

515
00:26:12,119 --> 00:26:17,119
Speaker 1: protects you, It covers you. Imagine walking into the doctor's office.

516
00:26:17,280 --> 00:26:20,520
Speaker 1: You know, Doc, my my left elbow doesn't feel good today. Vinny,

517
00:26:20,520 --> 00:26:24,240
Speaker 1: we're gonna have to amputate your arm. You know, no testing,

518
00:26:24,280 --> 00:26:27,159
Speaker 1: no blood pressure check, no heart rate. No, Vinny, we're

519
00:26:27,200 --> 00:26:29,360
Speaker 1: gonna cut your arm off. Step into the next room,

520
00:26:29,480 --> 00:26:35,240
Speaker 1: could you imagine? Yeah? And and same thing with this, Vinny,

521
00:26:35,280 --> 00:26:37,640
Speaker 1: it needs a starter to just scan it. No, did

522
00:26:37,640 --> 00:26:40,080
Speaker 1: you try and duplicate the problem. Well, it just goes click.

523
00:26:40,200 --> 00:26:42,199
Speaker 1: Did you check to see if the engine was sees? No,

524
00:26:42,359 --> 00:26:44,760
Speaker 1: But I don't think it's that. Boy, this is not

525
00:26:44,840 --> 00:26:48,240
Speaker 1: a diagnosis. This is an emotional conversation. It's based on

526
00:26:48,359 --> 00:26:52,600
Speaker 1: I think not I know, And that's a problem. That's

527
00:26:52,600 --> 00:26:57,240
Speaker 1: a real problem. All right, hold their feet to the fire,

528
00:26:57,320 --> 00:27:01,359
Speaker 1: kid up? Huh say again? I said, I wanted to

529
00:27:01,359 --> 00:27:04,320
Speaker 1: get your opinion on it, and I appreciate you. You're

530
00:27:04,400 --> 00:27:06,040
Speaker 1: very welcome. I'm glad to be here for you. If

531
00:27:06,040 --> 00:27:08,240
Speaker 1: Annie hold their feet to the fire, get him to

532
00:27:08,280 --> 00:27:11,000
Speaker 1: put it in writing. Will this fix the car? And

533
00:27:11,080 --> 00:27:13,679
Speaker 1: it might? But boy, I don't see a mechanical connection

534
00:27:13,720 --> 00:27:16,919
Speaker 1: on how a starter would make a car stall and

535
00:27:16,960 --> 00:27:19,960
Speaker 1: then not restart. That something's wrong with that picture. I

536
00:27:19,960 --> 00:27:22,080
Speaker 1: don't get it. So more information to come, Vinny, let

537
00:27:22,160 --> 00:27:26,040
Speaker 1: us know what happens. Zero. Let me move along. I'll

538
00:27:26,040 --> 00:27:37,680
Speaker 1: be back right after this. Don't go away. Welcome back

539
00:27:38,280 --> 00:27:41,359
Speaker 1: car doctor eight zero nine zero. By the way, I

540
00:27:41,359 --> 00:27:44,399
Speaker 1: should point out so everybody knows in case the radio

541
00:27:44,480 --> 00:27:47,080
Speaker 1: goes silent today, I told Tom this at the beginning

542
00:27:47,080 --> 00:27:50,400
Speaker 1: of the show. Um, Tom, you want to explain everybody

543
00:27:50,400 --> 00:27:54,760
Speaker 1: what's going on today. Yeah, I'm about I'm about to

544
00:27:54,760 --> 00:27:59,320
Speaker 1: take over the uh Tomas on standby, right, So I've

545
00:27:59,320 --> 00:28:01,680
Speaker 1: got a Charlie horse going on and my left leg

546
00:28:01,720 --> 00:28:05,000
Speaker 1: so I'm standing here. It started yesterday and um, I

547
00:28:05,000 --> 00:28:06,960
Speaker 1: don't know, I get these time. They're just weird. They

548
00:28:07,000 --> 00:28:08,520
Speaker 1: just they just come up out of nowhere. And I'm

549
00:28:08,560 --> 00:28:12,639
Speaker 1: trying to drink no. And you know what, I found

550
00:28:12,640 --> 00:28:15,080
Speaker 1: out something interesting, Right, you talk about fixing cars and

551
00:28:15,119 --> 00:28:18,119
Speaker 1: the dangers of it. Uh, somebody was telling me this morning.

552
00:28:18,600 --> 00:28:20,880
Speaker 1: The chiropractor mentioned to me. He said, you know, you've

553
00:28:20,920 --> 00:28:23,600
Speaker 1: got to drink in your body what You've got to

554
00:28:23,640 --> 00:28:27,920
Speaker 1: drink half your body weight in ounces of water. Really, yeah,

555
00:28:28,119 --> 00:28:30,600
Speaker 1: So if you're two hundred pounds, you've got to drink

556
00:28:30,600 --> 00:28:34,119
Speaker 1: a hundred ounces of water a day. I might as

557
00:28:34,119 --> 00:28:36,200
Speaker 1: well live in the bathroom. I don't. I don't live.

558
00:28:36,240 --> 00:28:38,960
Speaker 1: I don't, Tom. I don't drink nearly that much water.

559
00:28:39,720 --> 00:28:41,200
Speaker 1: You know, if I drink a lot of water, I

560
00:28:41,280 --> 00:28:43,360
Speaker 1: drink a lot of juice. But you're right, I don't

561
00:28:43,440 --> 00:28:46,320
Speaker 1: drink anywhere near that either. You know. That's the number

562
00:28:46,360 --> 00:28:49,120
Speaker 1: they gave me. Now, I carry a twenty ounce metal caraft,

563
00:28:49,600 --> 00:28:51,480
Speaker 1: so I've got to drink five of those a day,

564
00:28:51,520 --> 00:28:54,720
Speaker 1: five maybe six. That's a lot of water. Brother, So

565
00:28:54,760 --> 00:28:57,400
Speaker 1: I'm I'm dehydrated. So the point is, if all of

566
00:28:57,440 --> 00:29:00,080
Speaker 1: a sudden there's dead air while I'm laying on the

567
00:29:00,080 --> 00:29:02,320
Speaker 1: floor in the studio, Tom will take over the microphone. Today.

568
00:29:02,320 --> 00:29:04,480
Speaker 1: I just wanted everything that I don't I don't know

569
00:29:04,600 --> 00:29:06,240
Speaker 1: the first thing about cars, but I'll be happy to

570
00:29:06,280 --> 00:29:08,120
Speaker 1: sit here and entertain the folks. Right, it'll be a

571
00:29:08,120 --> 00:29:11,440
Speaker 1: show about nothing, so and and and and for the people,

572
00:29:11,640 --> 00:29:14,000
Speaker 1: for the brand new, brand new people listening to Oklahoma.

573
00:29:14,240 --> 00:29:16,800
Speaker 1: I'll sing the song for them. It'll be great. I'm

574
00:29:16,800 --> 00:29:18,600
Speaker 1: gonna try and keep the Charlie horst. I'm gonna try

575
00:29:18,640 --> 00:29:21,200
Speaker 1: and keep the Charlie host down for everybody's benefit. Let's sell.

576
00:29:21,240 --> 00:29:22,920
Speaker 1: Let's go over to Paul in New Hampshire or six

577
00:29:23,000 --> 00:29:25,160
Speaker 1: f three fifty Paul? How can I help you? Sir?

578
00:29:25,240 --> 00:29:29,360
Speaker 1: What's going on? Hi? Ron? How you doing? Really? Appreciate

579
00:29:29,400 --> 00:29:31,360
Speaker 1: you taking my call. I appreciate your show a lot.

580
00:29:31,440 --> 00:29:36,360
Speaker 1: You're welcome. Thank you. You could ask your chiropractor if

581
00:29:36,360 --> 00:29:38,960
Speaker 1: you drink deer instead, can you cut the volume in half?

582
00:29:39,560 --> 00:29:43,640
Speaker 1: Maybe that I hadn't thought of that but I'll consider that, yes, sir,

583
00:29:44,200 --> 00:29:48,560
Speaker 1: so I'll consider that. Um, what's going on? I got

584
00:29:48,560 --> 00:29:51,360
Speaker 1: a two thousand and six f three fifty and I'm

585
00:29:51,400 --> 00:29:54,400
Speaker 1: putting a great caliber on and some pads, and I

586
00:29:54,440 --> 00:29:59,040
Speaker 1: want to change the fluid out a p S breaks.

587
00:29:59,080 --> 00:30:01,760
Speaker 1: I don't know if there's any special procedure for a

588
00:30:01,800 --> 00:30:04,160
Speaker 1: bleeding a B S break system, or could I just

589
00:30:04,480 --> 00:30:09,120
Speaker 1: do a vacuum bleed at each califer? Vacuum bleed works. Okay,

590
00:30:09,160 --> 00:30:13,920
Speaker 1: There isn't a specific bleed procedure until you have a problem,

591
00:30:14,160 --> 00:30:16,479
Speaker 1: or unless you have a problem, or unless you create

592
00:30:16,520 --> 00:30:20,360
Speaker 1: the problem. So there's some there's some cautionary stuff here,

593
00:30:20,440 --> 00:30:24,880
Speaker 1: all right, an older vehicle, especially afford. How dirty is

594
00:30:24,920 --> 00:30:29,200
Speaker 1: the fluid? Is it really grimy? Grungy, ugly? Okay? Now

595
00:30:29,280 --> 00:30:32,360
Speaker 1: it's pretty a little like this color to it, but

596
00:30:32,880 --> 00:30:36,080
Speaker 1: it's not terrible. Alright. So here's what we're gonna do.

597
00:30:36,400 --> 00:30:39,000
Speaker 1: You're gonna go out this afternoon, and you're gonna stop

598
00:30:39,040 --> 00:30:41,840
Speaker 1: at your local fast food restaurant, and you're gonna order

599
00:30:41,880 --> 00:30:44,800
Speaker 1: a large soda, all right, because they usually come in

600
00:30:44,840 --> 00:30:48,160
Speaker 1: plastic cups. All right, You're gonna take that large soda.

601
00:30:48,160 --> 00:30:49,719
Speaker 1: You're gonna throw the soda out, and you're gonna take

602
00:30:49,720 --> 00:30:51,440
Speaker 1: the large plastic cut back to the house. And then

603
00:30:51,440 --> 00:30:54,320
Speaker 1: you're gonna take a piece of break line, probably three

604
00:30:54,360 --> 00:30:56,360
Speaker 1: sixteens is a good size, a little bigger if you

605
00:30:56,400 --> 00:30:59,920
Speaker 1: want something to fit that fits tight around the top

606
00:31:00,120 --> 00:31:04,120
Speaker 1: of the bleeder, all right, and you're gonna take a

607
00:31:04,200 --> 00:31:06,560
Speaker 1: length of that hose and like make a pigstail out

608
00:31:06,600 --> 00:31:08,680
Speaker 1: of it, curly queue it into the cup and then

609
00:31:08,720 --> 00:31:11,600
Speaker 1: take a black binder clip and hold the hose at

610
00:31:11,640 --> 00:31:14,080
Speaker 1: the top of the cup with another good you know,

611
00:31:14,240 --> 00:31:16,160
Speaker 1: ten twelve inches coming out of the cup so you

612
00:31:16,160 --> 00:31:18,800
Speaker 1: can attach it to the bleeder screw with the truck

613
00:31:18,840 --> 00:31:20,920
Speaker 1: on jack stands or you know, close to the ground

614
00:31:20,920 --> 00:31:22,760
Speaker 1: and leave the cup sitting on the ground and put

615
00:31:22,760 --> 00:31:24,840
Speaker 1: about well, I don't know, fill the cup up about

616
00:31:24,840 --> 00:31:28,280
Speaker 1: a quarter of the way to the bottom with clear

617
00:31:28,320 --> 00:31:31,800
Speaker 1: break fluid. The hose is sitting in fluid. You've got

618
00:31:31,840 --> 00:31:33,760
Speaker 1: you know, a nice length going to the bleeder. The

619
00:31:33,760 --> 00:31:35,920
Speaker 1: bleeders open, you know, you did your break work whatever,

620
00:31:36,320 --> 00:31:38,920
Speaker 1: and now you're going to suck out as much of

621
00:31:38,960 --> 00:31:42,440
Speaker 1: the fluid from the master. A turkey baser works real well.

622
00:31:42,520 --> 00:31:44,320
Speaker 1: Just don't tell mama where it getting a new Turkey

623
00:31:44,360 --> 00:31:47,320
Speaker 1: baser before the holidays, and you know, so you're not

624
00:31:47,360 --> 00:31:50,560
Speaker 1: pushing as much of the old fluid through the system. Now,

625
00:31:50,600 --> 00:31:53,480
Speaker 1: you can bleed the breaks by yourself, all right, as

626
00:31:53,560 --> 00:31:57,120
Speaker 1: long as the bleeder threads on the caliper don't leak,

627
00:31:57,160 --> 00:31:59,120
Speaker 1: because some of the caliper cores are kind of beat

628
00:31:59,200 --> 00:32:02,360
Speaker 1: up and they don't seal real well. So in that case,

629
00:32:02,360 --> 00:32:04,280
Speaker 1: you're gonna take the bleeder screw out all the way,

630
00:32:04,360 --> 00:32:06,840
Speaker 1: pack some wheelbearing grease around it to help seal it,

631
00:32:07,200 --> 00:32:09,440
Speaker 1: then put it back in and leave the bleeder screw open.

632
00:32:09,800 --> 00:32:13,040
Speaker 1: The idea is, and you're maintaining the level of the master,

633
00:32:13,240 --> 00:32:15,800
Speaker 1: you're maintaining the fluid level in the cup that you're

634
00:32:15,800 --> 00:32:19,200
Speaker 1: gonna stroke the pedal ten twelve times, all right. And

635
00:32:19,440 --> 00:32:21,040
Speaker 1: you know it's kind of neat if you have somebody

636
00:32:21,120 --> 00:32:24,320
Speaker 1: do this, because you can watch the crud that comes

637
00:32:24,360 --> 00:32:26,400
Speaker 1: out of the brake system and you're you're gonna be

638
00:32:26,400 --> 00:32:29,480
Speaker 1: amazed when you see the contrast between the old fluid

639
00:32:29,480 --> 00:32:31,480
Speaker 1: and the fresh fluid and the cup and this way

640
00:32:31,520 --> 00:32:33,400
Speaker 1: on the end stroke, when you're letting the pedal up,

641
00:32:33,400 --> 00:32:36,480
Speaker 1: it's gonna draw in Theoretically, fresh fluid. But you're gonna

642
00:32:36,480 --> 00:32:39,480
Speaker 1: continue to push out, push out, push out. The reason

643
00:32:39,520 --> 00:32:41,840
Speaker 1: I like doing it this way instead of just a

644
00:32:41,920 --> 00:32:48,120
Speaker 1: vacuum bleed. You're actually working all the hydraulics in the system,

645
00:32:48,160 --> 00:32:50,440
Speaker 1: all right, you're you know you're not just it's just

646
00:32:50,480 --> 00:32:53,000
Speaker 1: not like a passive pull. You're actually pushing all the

647
00:32:53,040 --> 00:32:57,520
Speaker 1: hydraulics to their limit. Now, the dangers are The dangers

648
00:32:57,560 --> 00:33:00,360
Speaker 1: are that you know you're you're you're pushing all to

649
00:33:00,400 --> 00:33:03,320
Speaker 1: crut around. In an older system, you could push it

650
00:33:03,360 --> 00:33:05,920
Speaker 1: into the wrong spot. But if you don't get it

651
00:33:05,960 --> 00:33:07,480
Speaker 1: out of the system at some point, it's going to

652
00:33:07,560 --> 00:33:09,719
Speaker 1: cause a problem. So you're you know, you're darned if

653
00:33:09,720 --> 00:33:11,160
Speaker 1: you do, darned if you don't. You might as well

654
00:33:11,160 --> 00:33:16,160
Speaker 1: find out now while you can. All right, um, go ahead,

655
00:33:17,600 --> 00:33:21,640
Speaker 1: is this uh engine running? Key on? Engine off? You

656
00:33:21,640 --> 00:33:24,160
Speaker 1: don't have that key on. Just just just bleed the brakes.

657
00:33:24,240 --> 00:33:26,440
Speaker 1: I'll tell you what. Stay put, Stay put, Paul, let

658
00:33:26,440 --> 00:33:27,680
Speaker 1: me pull over. Take a pause. I don't want to

659
00:33:27,720 --> 00:33:29,360
Speaker 1: rush this. I'll come back to you right after this

660
00:33:30,400 --> 00:33:37,080
Speaker 1: zero zero, the car doctor will return. Don't go away.

661
00:33:39,320 --> 00:33:41,920
Speaker 1: Welcome back the car doctor. Back to Paul in New

662
00:33:41,920 --> 00:33:46,560
Speaker 1: Hampshire Pool. You're still there, sir. Yes, So we're describing

663
00:33:46,640 --> 00:33:49,880
Speaker 1: a break flushing or break bleeding method you can do

664
00:33:49,920 --> 00:33:52,680
Speaker 1: on your own just to recap it. It's it's basically

665
00:33:52,720 --> 00:33:55,320
Speaker 1: get a large plastic continue. You can actually even use

666
00:33:55,360 --> 00:33:58,360
Speaker 1: an empty break fluid court They work well too if

667
00:33:58,360 --> 00:33:59,479
Speaker 1: you want to, if you don't want to go out

668
00:33:59,520 --> 00:34:01,520
Speaker 1: and spend the end dollars for the overpriced soda at

669
00:34:01,520 --> 00:34:04,240
Speaker 1: the fast food place and uh and and toss it out.

670
00:34:04,280 --> 00:34:05,680
Speaker 1: You know. Sometimes I think you know why they called

671
00:34:05,720 --> 00:34:07,240
Speaker 1: it a big gulp, because when you saw the price,

672
00:34:07,240 --> 00:34:11,640
Speaker 1: you went um, you know. But you can, you know,

673
00:34:11,719 --> 00:34:14,160
Speaker 1: use a break fluid courter, just a plastic container, the

674
00:34:14,520 --> 00:34:17,080
Speaker 1: rubber hose down into it, snakes it in and just

675
00:34:17,239 --> 00:34:19,080
Speaker 1: you know, flush it through and work the hydraulics. You're

676
00:34:19,080 --> 00:34:21,360
Speaker 1: doing this with the engine off, key off. You you know,

677
00:34:21,400 --> 00:34:24,320
Speaker 1: you don't need anything turned on, you know. And and

678
00:34:25,320 --> 00:34:27,560
Speaker 1: I've yet to see a vehicle that this does not

679
00:34:27,680 --> 00:34:30,440
Speaker 1: work on. If you get into the point where you

680
00:34:30,520 --> 00:34:33,240
Speaker 1: don't have a good pedal afterwards, that means some sludge

681
00:34:33,239 --> 00:34:35,920
Speaker 1: and crud got pushed in the wrong place, which means

682
00:34:36,000 --> 00:34:37,960
Speaker 1: it shouldn't have been in the system. In the first place,

683
00:34:38,120 --> 00:34:40,680
Speaker 1: I'll say it like this, if you're gonna have a

684
00:34:40,760 --> 00:34:43,080
Speaker 1: problem the ones I run into most of the problems

685
00:34:43,120 --> 00:34:45,560
Speaker 1: with our afford product, and then I've got to go

686
00:34:45,640 --> 00:34:48,439
Speaker 1: do an A B S bleed because those systems seem

687
00:34:48,480 --> 00:34:51,040
Speaker 1: to be very susceptible to crut and junk in the

688
00:34:51,080 --> 00:34:53,520
Speaker 1: A B S system. So make sure you get as

689
00:34:53,560 --> 00:34:55,640
Speaker 1: much of the old stuff out of the master bleed

690
00:34:55,680 --> 00:34:58,600
Speaker 1: it properly, and you should be okay. Call with any

691
00:34:58,600 --> 00:35:00,560
Speaker 1: further questions. I'm run on any in the card doctor,

692
00:35:00,640 --> 00:35:03,000
Speaker 1: reminding you this time until the next time. Good mechanics

693
00:35:03,000 --> 00:35:05,319
Speaker 1: aren't expensive, they're priceless. See up
