1
00:00:03,560 --> 00:00:06,520
Speaker 1: The city is headed for a disaster of biblical proportion.

2
00:00:06,800 --> 00:00:08,119
Speaker 2: What do you mean biblical?

3
00:00:08,320 --> 00:00:10,039
Speaker 3: What he means this Old Testament?

4
00:00:10,119 --> 00:00:13,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, man, real wrath of God type stuff. Fire and

5
00:00:13,520 --> 00:00:17,560
Speaker 1: brimstone coming down to the sky, rivers and seas starting

6
00:00:17,640 --> 00:00:23,439
Speaker 1: the birthquakes, volcanoes, r Duman's sacrifice, dogs and cats living together,

7
00:00:23,800 --> 00:00:25,080
Speaker 1: passus parrying.

8
00:00:27,360 --> 00:00:34,080
Speaker 2: Something strange. Who you're gonna call ron An Aian. There's

9
00:00:34,120 --> 00:00:37,600
Speaker 2: a fatal flaw in any vehicle. I don't care whether

10
00:00:37,640 --> 00:00:43,000
Speaker 2: it's ev ic hydrogen gets pulled by a horse. I

11
00:00:43,040 --> 00:00:45,319
Speaker 2: don't care how if you if you got to take

12
00:00:45,320 --> 00:00:47,600
Speaker 2: your eyes off the road to find something radio, heat

13
00:00:47,640 --> 00:00:50,560
Speaker 2: or seat position, it's dangerous, that chir doctor.

14
00:00:50,720 --> 00:00:53,840
Speaker 4: I've called a couple of places to see if uh

15
00:00:54,240 --> 00:00:57,480
Speaker 4: putting a two speed transfer case and the wiring and

16
00:00:57,520 --> 00:01:01,640
Speaker 4: everything in it was feasible and have really had much success.

17
00:01:01,720 --> 00:01:03,600
Speaker 4: Just thought i'd see what you thought.

18
00:01:03,880 --> 00:01:06,080
Speaker 2: I don't think. I think you bought the wrong vehicle.

19
00:01:06,280 --> 00:01:09,920
Speaker 5: Welcome to the radio home of Roninanian, the Car Doctor.

20
00:01:10,200 --> 00:01:13,319
Speaker 5: Since nineteen ninety one. This is where car owners the

21
00:01:13,360 --> 00:01:17,639
Speaker 5: world overturned to for their definitive opinion on automotive repair.

22
00:01:18,160 --> 00:01:20,920
Speaker 5: If your mechanics giving you a busy signal, pick up

23
00:01:20,959 --> 00:01:24,760
Speaker 5: the phone and call in the garage doors are open.

24
00:01:24,640 --> 00:01:26,600
Speaker 2: But I am here to take your vault at eight

25
00:01:26,640 --> 00:01:41,240
Speaker 2: five five five nine hundred and now he Ronnie, Hello

26
00:01:41,400 --> 00:01:47,360
Speaker 2: and welcome, Oh god, Vincent Vincent Price, Tom, that's Vincent Price.

27
00:01:47,800 --> 00:01:51,400
Speaker 2: But the question is do you recognize the music? Well,

28
00:01:51,400 --> 00:01:54,200
Speaker 2: of course that's Ghostbusters, the first one. No, no, yeah,

29
00:01:54,200 --> 00:01:58,160
Speaker 2: the first one. But this piece, no, what is this from?

30
00:01:58,280 --> 00:02:02,160
Speaker 2: Is this the Monsters? No? You know this was from

31
00:02:02,200 --> 00:02:09,799
Speaker 2: a movie with don Knots. Hold that ghost. No, mister Chicken. Yeah,

32
00:02:09,840 --> 00:02:11,440
Speaker 2: there you go. Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, the ghost of

33
00:02:11,480 --> 00:02:14,320
Speaker 2: mister Chicken. So the great don Knats. Boy, it's funny.

34
00:02:14,320 --> 00:02:17,000
Speaker 2: I was watching. I was watching an early episode of

35
00:02:17,200 --> 00:02:20,200
Speaker 2: Three's Company a couple of days ago, and the one

36
00:02:20,200 --> 00:02:22,920
Speaker 2: where they introduced don Knots to the girls at the

37
00:02:23,560 --> 00:02:25,919
Speaker 2: was it the Eager Eagle Beagle or the Regal Beagle,

38
00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:28,280
Speaker 2: whatever it was, And they threw they threw drinks on

39
00:02:28,360 --> 00:02:30,160
Speaker 2: them because they didn't understand what he was talking about

40
00:02:30,200 --> 00:02:31,799
Speaker 2: when he said he was going to sleep beneath them.

41
00:02:32,240 --> 00:02:35,160
Speaker 2: And you know, probably too risque for tell, well, probably

42
00:02:35,200 --> 00:02:38,240
Speaker 2: probably tame for television. Today. We probably can't talk about

43
00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:41,400
Speaker 2: those kind of things. But good opening, Tom, thank you.

44
00:02:41,400 --> 00:02:44,720
Speaker 2: Happy Halloween everybody, and trigger tree, trigger treats on my feet,

45
00:02:44,720 --> 00:02:46,800
Speaker 2: give me something good to eat. Let's let's go over

46
00:02:46,840 --> 00:02:48,639
Speaker 2: to the phones and get out of this dilemma. Let's

47
00:02:48,639 --> 00:02:50,440
Speaker 2: go over and talk to Jay in Los Angeles. O

48
00:02:50,600 --> 00:02:53,760
Speaker 2: five Toyota s Aquoia and some power issues. Jay, you're

49
00:02:53,800 --> 00:02:55,040
Speaker 2: on with the car doctor. How can I help?

50
00:02:57,280 --> 00:02:58,280
Speaker 6: Hey, holl are you?

51
00:02:58,440 --> 00:02:59,560
Speaker 2: I'm good, sir? What's going on?

52
00:03:01,720 --> 00:03:01,840
Speaker 1: Well?

53
00:03:01,880 --> 00:03:04,800
Speaker 6: I have a two douzen inside tattle Sequoia that I

54
00:03:04,919 --> 00:03:09,800
Speaker 6: bought back in twenty twenty one. Okay, I bought it.

55
00:03:09,880 --> 00:03:12,720
Speaker 6: You know, I knew there was something wrong with it initially.

56
00:03:12,840 --> 00:03:16,800
Speaker 6: This isn't my daily driver, so you know when I

57
00:03:16,840 --> 00:03:19,520
Speaker 6: bought it, I took my scanceal. But it wouldn't turn

58
00:03:19,560 --> 00:03:22,480
Speaker 6: out the scandal until I bought it home. I would

59
00:03:22,480 --> 00:03:24,480
Speaker 6: get a charge of the turning back down scanned it

60
00:03:25,280 --> 00:03:29,640
Speaker 6: therefore twenty nine okay, great followed the mechanic and they

61
00:03:29,680 --> 00:03:32,640
Speaker 6: said those are dealer only. I called the dealer. They

62
00:03:32,680 --> 00:03:33,720
Speaker 6: said fide grounds.

63
00:03:34,360 --> 00:03:36,520
Speaker 2: Well, oh, I had a time. Let's let's let's take

64
00:03:36,520 --> 00:03:38,520
Speaker 2: this apart one piece of a time, Jay, what's dealer

65
00:03:38,640 --> 00:03:41,360
Speaker 2: only catalytic courters or the dealer is the only one

66
00:03:41,360 --> 00:03:42,600
Speaker 2: who will do to repair.

67
00:03:44,040 --> 00:03:46,640
Speaker 6: You. No dealer only on the other they only have

68
00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:50,080
Speaker 6: them there. That's what they said. Okay, here's the thing.

69
00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:54,560
Speaker 6: I later took the truck to them ride and I said,

70
00:03:54,960 --> 00:03:57,760
Speaker 6: go over it, see you what's wrong with it. They

71
00:03:57,800 --> 00:04:00,000
Speaker 6: went over it and said, you know what, I only

72
00:04:00,080 --> 00:04:03,640
Speaker 6: see the skate control ECM. I believe they said that's

73
00:04:03,680 --> 00:04:06,320
Speaker 6: what's wrong with them. I said, okay. I said, it's

74
00:04:06,400 --> 00:04:10,480
Speaker 6: about fifteen hundred dollars. I said, fix it, But is

75
00:04:10,520 --> 00:04:13,400
Speaker 6: that going to be it? And after that I expected

76
00:04:13,480 --> 00:04:15,400
Speaker 6: to be okay, so let me put my master text

77
00:04:15,480 --> 00:04:20,080
Speaker 6: on it and I'll let you know. Comes back with nope,

78
00:04:20,160 --> 00:04:23,080
Speaker 6: not the skate control ECM. You know, and he's the

79
00:04:23,160 --> 00:04:26,599
Speaker 6: cats And I go, okay, five grand, right he said yep?

80
00:04:27,040 --> 00:04:28,520
Speaker 6: And I said, is that going to fix it? He

81
00:04:28,520 --> 00:04:30,479
Speaker 6: said nope, that's the start of it. We don't know

82
00:04:30,480 --> 00:04:33,240
Speaker 6: where to go from there. I said, okay, well, if

83
00:04:33,240 --> 00:04:35,960
Speaker 6: that's not going to fix it five grand, then why

84
00:04:36,000 --> 00:04:38,960
Speaker 6: am I taking it to you? Took it back and

85
00:04:39,000 --> 00:04:41,200
Speaker 6: I said I got to go over it myself. And

86
00:04:41,279 --> 00:04:45,160
Speaker 6: I remember, you know, the famous smoke test on it.

87
00:04:46,440 --> 00:04:48,719
Speaker 6: Somewhere I heard that the intake actic can go bad

88
00:04:48,720 --> 00:04:51,920
Speaker 6: on it. I went, I did a smoke test or

89
00:04:52,080 --> 00:04:55,839
Speaker 6: smoke him out of the antake asking fixed the intake

90
00:04:55,920 --> 00:04:59,160
Speaker 6: asking myself. And when I did that, I saw that

91
00:04:59,279 --> 00:05:04,520
Speaker 6: the the the vout covers or leaking oil took those.

92
00:05:04,640 --> 00:05:09,400
Speaker 6: Fixed that, and I saw the the coils had some

93
00:05:09,440 --> 00:05:12,880
Speaker 6: cracks on them. Fix that, And I thought, okay, that's

94
00:05:12,880 --> 00:05:14,839
Speaker 6: what was it, right, that was what we want. Put

95
00:05:14,839 --> 00:05:19,479
Speaker 6: it back together, same thing, you know. But the zero

96
00:05:19,600 --> 00:05:22,320
Speaker 6: four to twenty went away? Okay, and I came back.

97
00:05:22,320 --> 00:05:24,080
Speaker 6: It came back with one thirty eight.

98
00:05:25,160 --> 00:05:28,000
Speaker 2: All right? He did O two censors slow response or

99
00:05:28,040 --> 00:05:28,720
Speaker 2: heater circuit.

100
00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:33,719
Speaker 6: Uh, you know, two sensors over bulksage.

101
00:05:33,720 --> 00:05:36,279
Speaker 2: I believe that, yeah, slowly we sometimes I see it

102
00:05:36,279 --> 00:05:39,599
Speaker 2: a slow response. So so let's let's let's cut to

103
00:05:39,600 --> 00:05:41,960
Speaker 2: the chase. What fault code does it have in it?

104
00:05:42,040 --> 00:05:47,120
Speaker 2: Does does it have in it? Right? Now? Okay, it's

105
00:05:47,120 --> 00:05:48,839
Speaker 2: got the one thirty eight? And how does it run?

106
00:05:51,520 --> 00:05:53,840
Speaker 6: It is the team how I've run, you know, because

107
00:05:53,880 --> 00:05:56,280
Speaker 6: I initially turned it on, everything is okay, right, I

108
00:05:56,440 --> 00:05:58,920
Speaker 6: take it off and it has a hard shift from

109
00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:01,880
Speaker 6: one to second right and you can tell that there's

110
00:06:01,920 --> 00:06:04,839
Speaker 6: something wrong. There's low power. And if you get it

111
00:06:04,920 --> 00:06:09,200
Speaker 6: up to hire RPMs higher than thirty five hundred thirty

112
00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:13,240
Speaker 6: five whatever, thirty ahead, then it has a tick on it.

113
00:06:13,640 --> 00:06:15,960
Speaker 6: It has a tick on it. But then I take

114
00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:18,400
Speaker 6: it too visit my mom. I leave it there. By

115
00:06:18,440 --> 00:06:21,200
Speaker 6: the time I come back, it's running like nothing is

116
00:06:21,240 --> 00:06:25,960
Speaker 6: along with it to move, shifting owards like it's brand new.

117
00:06:26,320 --> 00:06:28,680
Speaker 2: All right, here's what I want you to do. I'm

118
00:06:28,680 --> 00:06:30,479
Speaker 2: going to give your home. I'm gonna give your homework assignment.

119
00:06:30,480 --> 00:06:34,920
Speaker 2: You got a pencil and paper, yes I did, Okay,

120
00:06:35,200 --> 00:06:37,400
Speaker 2: you've got an ob D two scan tool. Right, you

121
00:06:37,400 --> 00:06:39,359
Speaker 2: can go in and look at OBD two information.

122
00:06:41,240 --> 00:06:42,880
Speaker 6: I have a year making model on Yeah.

123
00:06:42,920 --> 00:06:45,200
Speaker 2: Well, I want you to do OBD two. It's simpler.

124
00:06:45,560 --> 00:06:48,760
Speaker 2: Do you have OBD two on there? All right? Yes,

125
00:06:49,320 --> 00:06:51,320
Speaker 2: I do OBD two. Tell you the truth. I use

126
00:06:51,360 --> 00:06:53,239
Speaker 2: more ob D two than I do your make model.

127
00:06:54,279 --> 00:06:56,080
Speaker 2: So you're going to see it. You're going to see

128
00:06:56,120 --> 00:07:01,600
Speaker 2: a pit on their piece of data parameter identification calculated load.

129
00:07:02,520 --> 00:07:04,600
Speaker 2: I want you to find a quiet street, the highway,

130
00:07:04,600 --> 00:07:07,440
Speaker 2: a side street, someplace where nobody's around, all right, someplace

131
00:07:07,440 --> 00:07:10,880
Speaker 2: where you feel comfortable doing doing a wide open throttle acceleration,

132
00:07:11,000 --> 00:07:12,880
Speaker 2: So make sure there's plenty of space around. You do

133
00:07:12,920 --> 00:07:15,520
Speaker 2: it in a big parking lot, and you know, from

134
00:07:15,560 --> 00:07:17,880
Speaker 2: a ten mile a kick, from a fifteen mile an

135
00:07:17,920 --> 00:07:20,440
Speaker 2: hour roll kick it. Put your head through that, put

136
00:07:20,480 --> 00:07:24,680
Speaker 2: your foot through the headlight. Where's calculated load go? You

137
00:07:24,720 --> 00:07:27,360
Speaker 2: may want to put it in graph mode because in

138
00:07:27,440 --> 00:07:30,720
Speaker 2: graph mode you don't have to necessarily watch the scan

139
00:07:30,840 --> 00:07:32,680
Speaker 2: tool on the road. You can just watch the road

140
00:07:33,080 --> 00:07:34,920
Speaker 2: and then come back and see where the graph went.

141
00:07:36,080 --> 00:07:38,520
Speaker 2: All right, I want to see if this enginees bree

142
00:07:38,600 --> 00:07:41,960
Speaker 2: I want to see if this engine's breathing properly all right,

143
00:07:43,120 --> 00:07:45,600
Speaker 2: you know, and it's important listen. You know you can

144
00:07:45,800 --> 00:07:48,600
Speaker 2: you can walk how many feet, how many miles, how fast,

145
00:07:48,600 --> 00:07:51,640
Speaker 2: et cetera, as a human being. But if your nose

146
00:07:51,680 --> 00:07:54,080
Speaker 2: is stuff and you have to breathe through your mouth,

147
00:07:54,440 --> 00:07:56,680
Speaker 2: that affects how your legs operate. Right, You can't lift

148
00:07:56,720 --> 00:07:58,640
Speaker 2: them as hard or as faster as often, and affects

149
00:07:58,640 --> 00:08:02,080
Speaker 2: the distance you can walk or run the same same

150
00:08:02,080 --> 00:08:04,000
Speaker 2: thing with an automobile. I just want to see how

151
00:08:04,040 --> 00:08:06,480
Speaker 2: well this thing's breathing. I want you to stop looking

152
00:08:06,520 --> 00:08:08,680
Speaker 2: at what's broken. I want you to tell me what's good.

153
00:08:08,920 --> 00:08:11,800
Speaker 2: I want to know what calculated load is. We should

154
00:08:11,840 --> 00:08:15,560
Speaker 2: see a calculated load response in the eighty five percent

155
00:08:15,640 --> 00:08:19,840
Speaker 2: tile or above, all right, And i'd like to see

156
00:08:19,840 --> 00:08:22,560
Speaker 2: this when it's broken. All right, I don't want to

157
00:08:22,560 --> 00:08:24,400
Speaker 2: see this. You know when it's when it's good, that's

158
00:08:24,440 --> 00:08:25,520
Speaker 2: not I want to I want you to do this

159
00:08:25,560 --> 00:08:28,240
Speaker 2: when when you think the engine is going to run badly.

160
00:08:29,040 --> 00:08:32,040
Speaker 2: If you're not familiar with a calculated load test, find

161
00:08:32,080 --> 00:08:35,440
Speaker 2: another car, anything that's got OBD two on it. Do

162
00:08:35,559 --> 00:08:38,600
Speaker 2: the same exact thing. Get good at doing it on

163
00:08:38,640 --> 00:08:40,440
Speaker 2: the good car, and then go take it over and

164
00:08:40,520 --> 00:08:43,680
Speaker 2: practice on the broken car. All right. This way you

165
00:08:43,720 --> 00:08:46,200
Speaker 2: know what known good feels like. It looks like the

166
00:08:46,320 --> 00:08:48,959
Speaker 2: average car on OBD two. You should be able to

167
00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:52,480
Speaker 2: hit an eighty five closer to ninety percent tile or

168
00:08:52,480 --> 00:08:56,079
Speaker 2: one hundred percent up to one hundred percent calculated load

169
00:08:56,360 --> 00:08:59,280
Speaker 2: that shows that the engine is breathing correctly. That's number

170
00:08:59,320 --> 00:09:03,760
Speaker 2: one homework assim at number one, Number two simple ad

171
00:09:03,800 --> 00:09:07,520
Speaker 2: idle sitting there at idle? All right? What engine is

172
00:09:07,520 --> 00:09:12,160
Speaker 2: in this four point seven? All right? I want you

173
00:09:12,200 --> 00:09:16,000
Speaker 2: to look at mass airflow grams per second. You may

174
00:09:16,040 --> 00:09:19,400
Speaker 2: have to convert it. What is it? What? What's it?

175
00:09:19,400 --> 00:09:19,520
Speaker 4: At?

176
00:09:19,559 --> 00:09:19,839
Speaker 2: Idle?

177
00:09:21,880 --> 00:09:24,240
Speaker 6: At idle? When I first turn it on, it goes

178
00:09:24,320 --> 00:09:27,400
Speaker 6: high to like seven something. All right, if I've driven

179
00:09:27,440 --> 00:09:30,560
Speaker 6: it and everything calms down, it goes to like five

180
00:09:30,600 --> 00:09:34,000
Speaker 6: point seven something like that. Even that's at rarely when

181
00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:35,920
Speaker 6: it goes too right.

182
00:09:36,080 --> 00:09:38,679
Speaker 2: So we because this is a four to seven naturally

183
00:09:38,720 --> 00:09:41,960
Speaker 2: aspirated right, there's no there's no turbo on this. This

184
00:09:42,120 --> 00:09:44,640
Speaker 2: is just the way it came from the factory. We

185
00:09:44,679 --> 00:09:48,080
Speaker 2: should see. Yeah, you know, four point five to four

186
00:09:48,120 --> 00:09:53,120
Speaker 2: point eight is a range if you're seeing constantly five

187
00:09:53,200 --> 00:09:56,079
Speaker 2: point zero or above mass airflow grams per second, if

188
00:09:56,080 --> 00:09:59,320
Speaker 2: it's if it's gps not pounds per inch, or it's

189
00:09:59,400 --> 00:10:01,920
Speaker 2: not a different measurement, You got to look. You might

190
00:10:01,960 --> 00:10:04,320
Speaker 2: have to find a conversion on the on the net.

191
00:10:04,559 --> 00:10:06,839
Speaker 2: Then I want you to focus on that. Why is

192
00:10:06,880 --> 00:10:09,760
Speaker 2: that out of kilter? Did this vehicle sit for any

193
00:10:09,840 --> 00:10:10,480
Speaker 2: length of time?

194
00:10:12,880 --> 00:10:13,320
Speaker 1: It did?

195
00:10:13,760 --> 00:10:16,400
Speaker 6: The person that had it before me said they just

196
00:10:16,440 --> 00:10:18,400
Speaker 6: weren't able to figure it out. So it did.

197
00:10:19,000 --> 00:10:22,400
Speaker 2: Okay, I want you to take the mass airflow sensor.

198
00:10:22,440 --> 00:10:23,640
Speaker 2: I don't want to tell you this. I'll tell you that. Well,

199
00:10:23,640 --> 00:10:25,439
Speaker 2: I'll tell you this now. I want you to take

200
00:10:25,440 --> 00:10:29,760
Speaker 2: the mass airflow sensor off and look inside of it.

201
00:10:29,800 --> 00:10:33,520
Speaker 2: Is there a spider web? Is there a bug? Something? Stupid?

202
00:10:34,280 --> 00:10:34,480
Speaker 7: Ron?

203
00:10:35,480 --> 00:10:37,560
Speaker 6: I already took it off, the original one. I took

204
00:10:37,559 --> 00:10:40,600
Speaker 6: it off, cleaned it because they say, you know, sometimes

205
00:10:40,600 --> 00:10:43,520
Speaker 6: they go back. Right, the truck has about clost to

206
00:10:43,559 --> 00:10:44,600
Speaker 6: three hundred thousand miles.

207
00:10:44,640 --> 00:10:45,280
Speaker 2: I don't care about that.

208
00:10:45,360 --> 00:10:46,120
Speaker 6: I give you a clue.

209
00:10:46,320 --> 00:10:48,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm sure it's got hoigh mild. It's twenty years old.

210
00:10:50,559 --> 00:10:53,360
Speaker 6: Yeah. So I took it out, cleaned it, came back

211
00:10:53,520 --> 00:10:55,360
Speaker 6: and gave me the cult for the mass refolce and

212
00:10:55,520 --> 00:10:58,600
Speaker 6: for the math censor. I changed it, changed it to

213
00:10:58,720 --> 00:11:02,559
Speaker 6: a hit Tachi one from Amazon, and then it went

214
00:11:02,600 --> 00:11:07,400
Speaker 6: to three point seven, and the truck was actually running better. Right,

215
00:11:07,520 --> 00:11:11,320
Speaker 6: I'd say, this can be good. So Sende went back

216
00:11:11,880 --> 00:11:14,920
Speaker 6: bought one from Toota itself, and that's the one that's

217
00:11:14,960 --> 00:11:17,600
Speaker 6: in there right now. And it's reading five when it's

218
00:11:17,640 --> 00:11:21,000
Speaker 6: already I heated up, and seven when.

219
00:11:20,880 --> 00:11:23,800
Speaker 2: It's cold, well seven when it's cold, but the idol

220
00:11:23,880 --> 00:11:28,720
Speaker 2: is higher. Correct. Yeah, right, so that makes sense? You're pulling?

221
00:11:29,160 --> 00:11:31,920
Speaker 2: Why does that make sense? You're pulling more air across

222
00:11:31,920 --> 00:11:37,560
Speaker 2: the sensor. Right, So when this thing's warmed up at idle?

223
00:11:37,920 --> 00:11:44,680
Speaker 2: And is it idling? What's six seven seven eight one pm?

224
00:11:44,760 --> 00:11:48,000
Speaker 6: Yeah, But here's the thing. It's wrong when AC is on.

225
00:11:48,440 --> 00:11:50,920
Speaker 6: When I twelve button to tell you what the AC?

226
00:11:51,280 --> 00:11:53,560
Speaker 2: Sit tight a minute, j Hey, Jay, Sit tight a minute.

227
00:11:53,640 --> 00:11:55,480
Speaker 2: Let me come back. I'm running over my clock here.

228
00:11:55,600 --> 00:11:57,720
Speaker 2: Sit tight, don't go anywhere I'm running any of the car. Doctor.

229
00:11:57,720 --> 00:11:58,760
Speaker 2: I'll be back right after this.

230
00:12:11,280 --> 00:12:13,720
Speaker 8: Time.

231
00:12:14,320 --> 00:12:16,280
Speaker 2: Write it on the wall so you don't forget to

232
00:12:16,280 --> 00:12:19,360
Speaker 2: call for car device. Done right? Eight five five five

233
00:12:19,480 --> 00:12:23,400
Speaker 2: six zero nine nine zero zero. Now back to rod. Hey,

234
00:12:23,480 --> 00:12:25,520
Speaker 2: let's get back to j in la Jay. You're there

235
00:12:27,600 --> 00:12:29,680
Speaker 2: on here, okay, So let's let's go back to the

236
00:12:29,679 --> 00:12:31,480
Speaker 2: pencil and paper before we go back talking about the

237
00:12:31,480 --> 00:12:33,400
Speaker 2: mess era. I want to know what calculated load is.

238
00:12:34,400 --> 00:12:36,400
Speaker 2: Where's fuel trim on this truck? Have you looked at

239
00:12:36,440 --> 00:12:38,640
Speaker 2: fuel trim?

240
00:12:39,040 --> 00:12:42,440
Speaker 6: I have actually look at my note.

241
00:12:42,600 --> 00:12:45,120
Speaker 2: What are your notes? Tell you? Short term?

242
00:12:45,160 --> 00:12:49,680
Speaker 6: Long term fu'el trim? Long term? I got a six

243
00:12:50,520 --> 00:12:53,959
Speaker 6: point two five bank one and five point four six?

244
00:12:55,360 --> 00:12:58,560
Speaker 2: Okay, so long term fuel trim is reasonable. You can

245
00:12:58,600 --> 00:13:00,480
Speaker 2: look at short term short term as at the moment,

246
00:13:00,520 --> 00:13:02,559
Speaker 2: so I'm not too concerned about it because long term

247
00:13:02,800 --> 00:13:06,160
Speaker 2: seems to be within a reasonable range. So let's talk

248
00:13:06,200 --> 00:13:08,559
Speaker 2: about Have you looked at you have a vacuum gauge,

249
00:13:09,480 --> 00:13:14,280
Speaker 2: old school vacuum gauge. All right, look at when you

250
00:13:14,280 --> 00:13:16,760
Speaker 2: hook up your scan tool. Look at the map pit.

251
00:13:16,840 --> 00:13:19,880
Speaker 2: There's probably a map m AP, a map PID here.

252
00:13:21,360 --> 00:13:24,679
Speaker 2: All right, manifold absolute pressure. So turn the key on,

253
00:13:24,800 --> 00:13:29,680
Speaker 2: engine off, look at the barometric pressure PID. See what

254
00:13:29,720 --> 00:13:32,280
Speaker 2: it says. And then I want you to go google

255
00:13:32,280 --> 00:13:36,920
Speaker 2: barometric pressure around me, all right and see what your

256
00:13:36,920 --> 00:13:40,440
Speaker 2: barometric pressure is in LA that day. Should match the tool, right,

257
00:13:43,360 --> 00:13:47,560
Speaker 2: you would think reasonably? So you ever see a stuck

258
00:13:47,600 --> 00:13:50,960
Speaker 2: map sensor? Drive a car? Nuts I have? This is

259
00:13:51,160 --> 00:13:53,000
Speaker 2: These are the you know, I'm trying to take you

260
00:13:53,040 --> 00:13:55,280
Speaker 2: through the basics because if we can prove all these

261
00:13:55,280 --> 00:13:57,520
Speaker 2: things are good, we can market down and then we

262
00:13:57,559 --> 00:14:01,280
Speaker 2: can focus on what's wrong with this? All right? You know,

263
00:14:01,720 --> 00:14:03,480
Speaker 2: I'm trying to get you to do the same things

264
00:14:03,520 --> 00:14:05,600
Speaker 2: a doctor does when you go into the er. They

265
00:14:05,640 --> 00:14:06,920
Speaker 2: look at what do they do? They look at the

266
00:14:06,960 --> 00:14:09,679
Speaker 2: critical things they always and you ever notice a doctor,

267
00:14:09,760 --> 00:14:12,000
Speaker 2: oh and I say this time and again. They always

268
00:14:12,000 --> 00:14:14,240
Speaker 2: look at the same six or seven things time and

269
00:14:14,280 --> 00:14:16,680
Speaker 2: time again because they know those are the things that

270
00:14:16,720 --> 00:14:19,120
Speaker 2: will point you in a direction. So I want to

271
00:14:19,160 --> 00:14:21,560
Speaker 2: know calculated load. I want to know Barrow. I want

272
00:14:21,560 --> 00:14:24,080
Speaker 2: to know map sensor reading. When you start it, you're

273
00:14:24,120 --> 00:14:26,040
Speaker 2: probably gonna, well, you're hopefully going to come back and

274
00:14:26,040 --> 00:14:27,600
Speaker 2: tell me that you see a map censor reading of

275
00:14:27,600 --> 00:14:30,080
Speaker 2: around twelve inches. That tells me you've got eighteen inches

276
00:14:30,120 --> 00:14:33,600
Speaker 2: of manifold vacuum. Because it's an inverse thing that I

277
00:14:33,640 --> 00:14:36,360
Speaker 2: can't get into here, it's too long to explain. So

278
00:14:36,400 --> 00:14:37,520
Speaker 2: but I want to I want to know what the

279
00:14:37,520 --> 00:14:40,400
Speaker 2: scan tool thinks map sensor reading is. All right, how's

280
00:14:40,400 --> 00:14:42,880
Speaker 2: the idle quality when you sit there warmed up at idle?

281
00:14:43,320 --> 00:14:46,560
Speaker 6: Good? It's good? Okay, it's good, all right.

282
00:14:47,040 --> 00:14:50,080
Speaker 2: And once you get past that thirty five mile an

283
00:14:50,120 --> 00:14:53,160
Speaker 2: hour mark, does it feel like it has good power?

284
00:14:53,240 --> 00:14:56,160
Speaker 2: Does it go wide open throttle and takes off.

285
00:14:58,080 --> 00:15:01,800
Speaker 6: No? No, it's like the first five six miles of

286
00:15:01,840 --> 00:15:06,600
Speaker 6: it running, it runs very bad. And after it's warmed up,

287
00:15:06,640 --> 00:15:09,560
Speaker 6: it's you know. Another thing that I know is once

288
00:15:09,600 --> 00:15:12,200
Speaker 6: it goes into close loop, it gets worse. Once it

289
00:15:12,280 --> 00:15:15,480
Speaker 6: is an open loop, it's sort of okay, it still

290
00:15:15,560 --> 00:15:19,000
Speaker 6: has that hardshift, but it has power, not full power,

291
00:15:19,120 --> 00:15:21,440
Speaker 6: has power, and you have a piece it goes into

292
00:15:21,480 --> 00:15:22,920
Speaker 6: close loop and it.

293
00:15:22,920 --> 00:15:24,960
Speaker 2: Runs that and you have a P zero one thirty

294
00:15:25,000 --> 00:15:26,000
Speaker 2: eight correct.

295
00:15:27,480 --> 00:15:27,840
Speaker 4: Yeah.

296
00:15:27,920 --> 00:15:30,880
Speaker 2: Do you think that Bank one downstream O two sensor

297
00:15:30,920 --> 00:15:32,120
Speaker 2: will come out?

298
00:15:34,000 --> 00:15:34,200
Speaker 7: Yeah?

299
00:15:34,320 --> 00:15:37,800
Speaker 2: Okay, taking out? So can you swap Bank one in

300
00:15:37,880 --> 00:15:38,360
Speaker 2: Bank two?

301
00:15:40,760 --> 00:15:44,520
Speaker 6: I've done that and they they're the same. Excuse me,

302
00:15:44,560 --> 00:15:45,200
Speaker 6: that's the same.

303
00:15:45,400 --> 00:15:49,280
Speaker 2: So it follows, so it follows Bank one, so it

304
00:15:49,760 --> 00:15:55,000
Speaker 2: keeps saying Bank one has the issue, Yes it does. Okay,

305
00:15:55,360 --> 00:15:58,680
Speaker 2: can you take out the upstream catalyst O two censor?

306
00:16:01,680 --> 00:16:02,520
Speaker 6: I'm sure I can't.

307
00:16:02,600 --> 00:16:04,600
Speaker 2: Okay, can you do a back pressure test?

308
00:16:06,640 --> 00:16:08,000
Speaker 6: Does it really down that too?

309
00:16:08,920 --> 00:16:12,320
Speaker 2: Does it run better? How did you do a back

310
00:16:12,320 --> 00:16:14,040
Speaker 2: pressure test if you haven't taken the OL two out

311
00:16:14,120 --> 00:16:17,120
Speaker 2: yet or have you? I?

312
00:16:17,160 --> 00:16:19,880
Speaker 6: Well, yeah I did on the on the op stream

313
00:16:19,960 --> 00:16:22,960
Speaker 6: back one I did. I put a pressure gauge on it,

314
00:16:23,000 --> 00:16:28,040
Speaker 6: idlist almost er and then I accelerated it not being okay, Yeah,

315
00:16:28,080 --> 00:16:29,600
Speaker 6: I thought the capitalar plaid too.

316
00:16:29,640 --> 00:16:35,240
Speaker 2: But all right, So then let's let's focus more on

317
00:16:35,760 --> 00:16:38,440
Speaker 2: those critical pieces of information I gave you. And then

318
00:16:38,440 --> 00:16:39,880
Speaker 2: the last thing is I want to make sure this

319
00:16:39,880 --> 00:16:42,840
Speaker 2: thing breathes well. Do the calculated load. I want you

320
00:16:42,920 --> 00:16:47,920
Speaker 2: to go search atg volumemetric efficiency. I want you to

321
00:16:47,920 --> 00:16:52,120
Speaker 2: read up on that. Automotive Training Group all right, Automotive

322
00:16:52,160 --> 00:16:55,320
Speaker 2: Training Group has a nice chart there. It talks about

323
00:16:55,400 --> 00:16:59,040
Speaker 2: volumetric efficiency. It will walk you through the process of

324
00:16:59,400 --> 00:17:01,200
Speaker 2: some of the things I've talked to you about here,

325
00:17:01,680 --> 00:17:04,960
Speaker 2: but it will also explain the idea. Volumetric efficiency is

326
00:17:05,000 --> 00:17:09,600
Speaker 2: a much more in depth look at calculated load because

327
00:17:09,600 --> 00:17:12,200
Speaker 2: to me, it sounds like this engine's not breathing properly.

328
00:17:13,920 --> 00:17:17,359
Speaker 2: All right, that that P zero four twenty going away.

329
00:17:17,960 --> 00:17:19,840
Speaker 2: You know, I've seen all kinds of funny things. And

330
00:17:19,880 --> 00:17:22,159
Speaker 2: then we can maybe talk next week about you know,

331
00:17:22,320 --> 00:17:25,040
Speaker 2: if we were to graft the upstream downstream mode twos

332
00:17:25,080 --> 00:17:26,879
Speaker 2: and look at them, do we see a difference. Is

333
00:17:26,880 --> 00:17:29,200
Speaker 2: it possible we've got a bad cat on the bank

334
00:17:29,240 --> 00:17:33,439
Speaker 2: one that the catalytic converter honeycomb is rolling around blocking

335
00:17:33,520 --> 00:17:34,960
Speaker 2: the exhaust the wrong way, and then all of a

336
00:17:35,000 --> 00:17:37,679
Speaker 2: sudden you hit a bump and it pops open and

337
00:17:37,720 --> 00:17:41,000
Speaker 2: goes the other way. Weird things high mile.

338
00:17:42,200 --> 00:17:46,600
Speaker 6: I've taken them out. I took the cap off right

339
00:17:46,680 --> 00:17:49,720
Speaker 6: and I put a camera in one and they look,

340
00:17:50,119 --> 00:17:52,879
Speaker 6: they don't look. I put a light on the other.

341
00:17:52,800 --> 00:17:55,520
Speaker 2: End and they're not moving and you can see right

342
00:17:55,560 --> 00:17:55,960
Speaker 2: through it.

343
00:17:56,240 --> 00:18:01,520
Speaker 6: They're not you can feel a light on the other side.

344
00:18:01,880 --> 00:18:04,199
Speaker 2: Something's not making sense here, Jake, go get me my

345
00:18:04,359 --> 00:18:07,480
Speaker 2: Go do your homework, get me my critical measurements, and

346
00:18:07,800 --> 00:18:10,360
Speaker 2: let's let's talk again next week. Also, take a look

347
00:18:10,359 --> 00:18:12,680
Speaker 2: at throttle angle. Could we have a dirty throttle body

348
00:18:12,720 --> 00:18:15,520
Speaker 2: affecting mass airflow readings at idle and look at the

349
00:18:15,560 --> 00:18:17,920
Speaker 2: air and take duct as well. We'll talk next week.

350
00:18:17,920 --> 00:18:19,800
Speaker 2: I'm running any in the car Doctor. We're back right

351
00:18:19,840 --> 00:18:34,960
Speaker 2: after this. Ron's in the Zone, the Auto Zone studio,

352
00:18:35,040 --> 00:18:56,280
Speaker 2: and he'll be back right after this. Welcome back, ron

353
00:18:56,320 --> 00:18:57,760
Speaker 2: Ny in the card Actor. Let's go over and talk

354
00:18:57,800 --> 00:19:01,119
Speaker 2: to Let's go talk to Paul in Maine, twenty nineteen,

355
00:19:01,160 --> 00:19:03,000
Speaker 2: Ford Edge, Paul. Welcome to the Car Doctor, sir. How

356
00:19:03,000 --> 00:19:03,440
Speaker 2: can I help?

357
00:19:04,520 --> 00:19:07,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, I got two issues going on. It's got about

358
00:19:07,800 --> 00:19:11,720
Speaker 3: sixty thousand miles. It's got a two liter Eco Boost Mota.

359
00:19:13,280 --> 00:19:15,240
Speaker 3: You lift up the hood and boy has got quite

360
00:19:15,240 --> 00:19:18,320
Speaker 3: a ticking sound. To it almost like it's lift a sound,

361
00:19:18,400 --> 00:19:20,240
Speaker 3: but it doesn't seem as though it should be.

362
00:19:20,440 --> 00:19:22,359
Speaker 2: Did you have a recent did you have a recent

363
00:19:22,400 --> 00:19:22,960
Speaker 2: oil change?

364
00:19:22,960 --> 00:19:29,159
Speaker 3: Paul, Well, let's see, probably two thousand or so miles ago.

365
00:19:29,320 --> 00:19:34,280
Speaker 2: Is this the first time you lifted the hood since then? Yes, okay,

366
00:19:34,840 --> 00:19:35,720
Speaker 2: if you look at the top.

367
00:19:35,920 --> 00:19:39,560
Speaker 3: But now, okay, another to go backwards a little bit.

368
00:19:39,760 --> 00:19:41,160
Speaker 3: We just bought the car in July.

369
00:19:41,480 --> 00:19:43,560
Speaker 2: Okay, well, I don't.

370
00:19:43,400 --> 00:19:45,840
Speaker 3: Ever remember hearing the sound, but it may have been

371
00:19:45,880 --> 00:19:46,520
Speaker 3: there then too.

372
00:19:46,640 --> 00:19:49,600
Speaker 2: All right, So my first question is is there a

373
00:19:49,640 --> 00:19:52,600
Speaker 2: black plastic cover over the top of the engine.

374
00:19:53,880 --> 00:19:54,520
Speaker 4: Uh?

375
00:19:55,040 --> 00:19:55,720
Speaker 3: I don't think so.

376
00:19:55,880 --> 00:19:57,240
Speaker 2: No, Okay, it's no.

377
00:19:57,640 --> 00:19:59,880
Speaker 3: You can see you can see the you can.

378
00:19:59,800 --> 00:20:02,399
Speaker 2: See the valve cover and all the wiring. You can

379
00:20:02,440 --> 00:20:05,879
Speaker 2: see the valve cover and all the wiring. Right, So

380
00:20:06,560 --> 00:20:09,600
Speaker 2: it's possible, and I've seen this plenty of times that

381
00:20:09,640 --> 00:20:12,200
Speaker 2: when whoever changed the oil, I'm not saying they did,

382
00:20:12,200 --> 00:20:14,119
Speaker 2: I'm not saying they didn't, but it's the first thing

383
00:20:14,200 --> 00:20:16,720
Speaker 2: I would consider that what you're hearing is a normal

384
00:20:16,800 --> 00:20:19,880
Speaker 2: sound and they left that insulator panel off? Is it

385
00:20:19,920 --> 00:20:23,000
Speaker 2: is it that? Did you did you lift the hood

386
00:20:23,040 --> 00:20:25,320
Speaker 2: because you heard the ticking noise, or you lifted the

387
00:20:25,359 --> 00:20:27,600
Speaker 2: hood and that's when you notice the ticking noise at

388
00:20:27,600 --> 00:20:28,000
Speaker 2: that point.

389
00:20:28,960 --> 00:20:29,919
Speaker 3: Exactly that's what I did.

390
00:20:30,040 --> 00:20:32,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I think somebody left the Yeah, there's supposed

391
00:20:32,920 --> 00:20:35,359
Speaker 2: to be a baffle there or a baffle plate and

392
00:20:35,400 --> 00:20:38,639
Speaker 2: an insulation plate. And I can't I can't tell you.

393
00:20:38,720 --> 00:20:42,160
Speaker 2: It just boggles my mind how somebody left it off.

394
00:20:42,240 --> 00:20:45,119
Speaker 2: I see it a lot. You know, somebody's got a

395
00:20:45,119 --> 00:20:48,879
Speaker 2: big collection of these things, and it's it's calm and listen.

396
00:20:48,960 --> 00:20:52,320
Speaker 2: My one daughter who lives a couple of three or

397
00:20:52,320 --> 00:20:55,120
Speaker 2: four hours away, sometimes she gets her oil changed down

398
00:20:55,200 --> 00:20:57,240
Speaker 2: there where she is, and she'll come home and say, hey, pop,

399
00:20:57,280 --> 00:20:58,760
Speaker 2: can you change the oil? And I brought a car

400
00:20:58,800 --> 00:21:00,399
Speaker 2: in one time and change the oil and lo and

401
00:21:00,400 --> 00:21:06,960
Speaker 2: behold it's missing. Well, uh, you know, so not completely uncommon.

402
00:21:07,040 --> 00:21:08,560
Speaker 2: What's the second thing you got going on?

403
00:21:09,280 --> 00:21:12,360
Speaker 3: Okay? Well, as it it runs fine, but when it's

404
00:21:12,600 --> 00:21:15,080
Speaker 3: you know, you slow down, it's kinds of kind of

405
00:21:15,119 --> 00:21:18,879
Speaker 3: seems to have a hesitation. I don't you know. Like

406
00:21:18,920 --> 00:21:21,240
Speaker 3: I said, when you take off, it accelerates real good

407
00:21:21,280 --> 00:21:23,520
Speaker 3: and everything like that, but it seems to have this

408
00:21:23,600 --> 00:21:27,000
Speaker 3: hesitation like it's skipping almost when you really when you've

409
00:21:27,000 --> 00:21:27,720
Speaker 3: come real slow.

410
00:21:28,520 --> 00:21:31,080
Speaker 2: I'm not sure. I'm trying to get in my mind's

411
00:21:31,080 --> 00:21:33,720
Speaker 2: eye how you would pick up a hesitation on d

412
00:21:33,920 --> 00:21:37,800
Speaker 2: cell because you're not asking the engine to accelerate. Is

413
00:21:37,880 --> 00:21:40,960
Speaker 2: it is it that you're stepping on the break at

414
00:21:40,960 --> 00:21:42,640
Speaker 2: that time? Well?

415
00:21:42,720 --> 00:21:44,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, if you come to a stop light, yes, I

416
00:21:44,200 --> 00:21:45,840
Speaker 3: am on the break.

417
00:21:46,119 --> 00:21:47,200
Speaker 2: Is it from high speed?

418
00:21:49,280 --> 00:21:50,359
Speaker 3: What do you mean high speed?

419
00:21:50,400 --> 00:21:52,840
Speaker 2: Oh? Is it highway speeds? Or is it can't.

420
00:21:52,600 --> 00:21:54,560
Speaker 3: Well no, no, high highway speed.

421
00:21:54,560 --> 00:21:59,280
Speaker 2: It runs fine well on DCEL right, is it d

422
00:21:59,400 --> 00:22:02,119
Speaker 2: cell on high way speed? Is that when you notice it?

423
00:22:02,200 --> 00:22:03,680
Speaker 2: Or do you notice it? If you're doing twenty five

424
00:22:03,720 --> 00:22:05,520
Speaker 2: miles an hour around town and you still get the

425
00:22:05,520 --> 00:22:06,720
Speaker 2: same sensation.

426
00:22:06,320 --> 00:22:08,879
Speaker 3: Exactly exactly twenty miles an hour or so.

427
00:22:09,000 --> 00:22:10,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, if you don't have your foot on the brake,

428
00:22:10,760 --> 00:22:11,399
Speaker 2: does it do it?

429
00:22:12,880 --> 00:22:13,200
Speaker 3: Yes?

430
00:22:13,640 --> 00:22:15,919
Speaker 2: So you take your foot off the gas and just

431
00:22:16,040 --> 00:22:19,560
Speaker 2: coast and you get this, You get this hesitation feeling.

432
00:22:20,560 --> 00:22:22,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, like almost skipping.

433
00:22:22,680 --> 00:22:22,840
Speaker 4: Like.

434
00:22:24,520 --> 00:22:25,679
Speaker 2: No dashboard lights on?

435
00:22:26,600 --> 00:22:27,640
Speaker 3: No, no, not the thing.

436
00:22:28,520 --> 00:22:30,120
Speaker 2: I gotta tell you, I'd like to see that one

437
00:22:30,280 --> 00:22:32,080
Speaker 2: because I can't for the life you figure out how

438
00:22:32,119 --> 00:22:35,480
Speaker 2: you detect a hesitation under no load cruising up to

439
00:22:35,480 --> 00:22:39,359
Speaker 2: a stop sign without your foot on the brake, you know,

440
00:22:39,520 --> 00:22:40,840
Speaker 2: and no dash warning lights.

441
00:22:41,920 --> 00:22:43,720
Speaker 3: Well you can, you can, like I said, feel the

442
00:22:43,840 --> 00:22:47,800
Speaker 3: you can feel the engine not running smoothly.

443
00:22:48,920 --> 00:22:51,160
Speaker 2: Okay, Well, then the first thing I'm gonna do, who's

444
00:22:51,160 --> 00:22:53,520
Speaker 2: your mechanic? I mean, I would, I would, I would

445
00:22:53,600 --> 00:22:55,760
Speaker 2: have them scan it. Do you have a pending fault

446
00:22:56,200 --> 00:22:59,919
Speaker 2: for a misfire on one of the things? That was

447
00:23:00,080 --> 00:23:03,520
Speaker 2: common on those all right? And it was mostly the

448
00:23:03,560 --> 00:23:06,080
Speaker 2: twenty fifteen through the eighteens, but some of the nineteen

449
00:23:06,200 --> 00:23:08,640
Speaker 2: edges had it as well. If that's a two liter

450
00:23:09,440 --> 00:23:12,200
Speaker 2: is Ford had some issues early on with head gaskets

451
00:23:12,240 --> 00:23:18,080
Speaker 2: and cylinders, cylinder engine blocks failing, seeping coolant into the cylinders,

452
00:23:18,080 --> 00:23:21,880
Speaker 2: causing a rough running condition, but normally it was experienced

453
00:23:21,880 --> 00:23:25,639
Speaker 2: on acceleration, not d excel, not d excel under no load.

454
00:23:26,400 --> 00:23:29,040
Speaker 2: You know. I wonder what would happen if you were

455
00:23:29,119 --> 00:23:31,680
Speaker 2: pulling up to that stop sign or traffic light at

456
00:23:31,720 --> 00:23:35,080
Speaker 2: twenty miles an hour and gently popped it into neutral,

457
00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:39,040
Speaker 2: careful not to careful, not to go into reverse, all right,

458
00:23:40,000 --> 00:23:43,199
Speaker 2: just you know, just just go into neutral and go

459
00:23:43,280 --> 00:23:48,600
Speaker 2: to cruising. Do you still get that same hesitation. If

460
00:23:48,680 --> 00:23:51,000
Speaker 2: you don't, then yeah, I would agree it's somewhere in

461
00:23:51,040 --> 00:23:53,120
Speaker 2: the engine and the way the engine is breaking itself

462
00:23:53,359 --> 00:23:56,359
Speaker 2: slowing itself down. If you do, then it's in the

463
00:23:56,440 --> 00:24:01,000
Speaker 2: rolling chassis, a tire, an axle, something along those lines.

464
00:24:01,320 --> 00:24:03,959
Speaker 2: But that's how that's that's that's how I would approach that,

465
00:24:04,600 --> 00:24:04,960
Speaker 2: all right.

466
00:24:05,200 --> 00:24:07,600
Speaker 3: And now, yeah, now getting back to the first one.

467
00:24:07,840 --> 00:24:10,040
Speaker 3: I got the engine. The hood popped open now and

468
00:24:10,080 --> 00:24:13,000
Speaker 3: that that shroud you're talking about is gone, right. I

469
00:24:13,240 --> 00:24:15,280
Speaker 3: can see the little plastic knobs where it hooks to.

470
00:24:15,480 --> 00:24:19,080
Speaker 2: Yep. Yeah, And and you're probably collecting leaves under there,

471
00:24:19,080 --> 00:24:22,960
Speaker 2: if the leaves are falling in. Yeah, yeah, there is yep. Yeah,

472
00:24:22,960 --> 00:24:26,720
Speaker 2: that's what happens. That's and I'm not saying I'm not

473
00:24:26,840 --> 00:24:29,040
Speaker 2: saying that's the only thing, but that's the first step

474
00:24:29,080 --> 00:24:31,440
Speaker 2: I would do. Because that's a GDI, that's a gasoline

475
00:24:31,440 --> 00:24:35,840
Speaker 2: direct injection engine. Noisy injectors. If it's a repetitive steady

476
00:24:35,840 --> 00:24:38,280
Speaker 2: tic tic tic tic tick, almost like you know a

477
00:24:38,320 --> 00:24:40,320
Speaker 2: sixty three Chevy with a bad lifter on a two

478
00:24:40,359 --> 00:24:43,040
Speaker 2: eighty three. Yeah, if it's if it's that kind of

479
00:24:43,040 --> 00:24:45,919
Speaker 2: a noise, it's it's it's missing that cover. That's the

480
00:24:45,920 --> 00:24:49,000
Speaker 2: first step. And regardless, that cover should be there because

481
00:24:49,000 --> 00:24:52,119
Speaker 2: it's not just for cosmetic it's for sound insulation, and

482
00:24:52,160 --> 00:24:54,560
Speaker 2: it helps keep the top. It helps keep you know,

483
00:24:54,560 --> 00:24:58,120
Speaker 2: if you notice the hoodline of the radiator in the airstream,

484
00:24:58,119 --> 00:25:00,000
Speaker 2: it's going to float right over the top of the engine.

485
00:25:00,280 --> 00:25:03,920
Speaker 2: That insulation cover. Yeah, that insulation cover keeps Everything's there

486
00:25:03,960 --> 00:25:07,280
Speaker 2: for a purpose, right, That insulation cover keeps everything clean

487
00:25:07,320 --> 00:25:09,480
Speaker 2: and dry and keeps all the crowd off it.

488
00:25:10,000 --> 00:25:13,760
Speaker 3: So all right, okay, so okay, well, doun's good. Thank

489
00:25:13,760 --> 00:25:14,159
Speaker 3: you very much.

490
00:25:14,200 --> 00:25:15,600
Speaker 2: You're very welcome, sir. Good luck to you.

491
00:25:15,640 --> 00:25:15,919

Speaker 2: in the queue for the next broadcast. If you missed us,

502
00:25:52,000 --> 00:25:54,959
Speaker 2: this week, let's get over to Mark in Wisconsin twenty thirteen,

503
00:25:55,040 --> 00:25:57,240
Speaker 2: f one to fifty. Mark, what's going on? Tell me

504
00:25:57,280 --> 00:25:57,720
Speaker 2: the tell.

505
00:25:59,280 --> 00:26:02,080
Speaker 7: Well had this vehicle for ten years. It's always run

506
00:26:02,119 --> 00:26:04,040
Speaker 7: like a top and it still does. Until we took

507
00:26:04,080 --> 00:26:07,600
Speaker 7: a long trip out west, about a seventeen hundred mile trip,

508
00:26:08,080 --> 00:26:10,959
Speaker 7: and we were, you know, mostly on two lane roads,

509
00:26:11,400 --> 00:26:14,040
Speaker 7: and I got behind the slow driver, pulled out to pass,

510
00:26:14,080 --> 00:26:17,080
Speaker 7: put the pedal down to the floor, and you know,

511
00:26:17,119 --> 00:26:19,159
Speaker 7: I experienced this, you know, a little bit of turbo

512
00:26:19,280 --> 00:26:22,200
Speaker 7: lag like I always do. It's got the Eco boost engine.

513
00:26:22,600 --> 00:26:27,040
Speaker 7: And but then it started to run so rough and

514
00:26:27,240 --> 00:26:31,040
Speaker 7: misfiring and all these weird chugging along and stuff. I

515
00:26:31,119 --> 00:26:33,000
Speaker 7: thought the engine was going to stall. So I backed

516
00:26:33,000 --> 00:26:36,400
Speaker 7: off on the gas pedal and you know, oh and wow,

517
00:26:36,480 --> 00:26:38,520
Speaker 7: this was happening. I noticed the check engine light was

518
00:26:38,560 --> 00:26:40,719
Speaker 7: flashing like crazy. It was blinking at me. I've never

519
00:26:40,800 --> 00:26:41,800
Speaker 7: seen that before.

520
00:26:41,480 --> 00:26:41,679
Speaker 2: You know.

521
00:26:42,560 --> 00:26:45,159
Speaker 7: And when I backed off on a gas it smoothed out,

522
00:26:45,200 --> 00:26:48,200
Speaker 7: started running okay again, and you know, the check engine

523
00:26:48,240 --> 00:26:51,120
Speaker 7: light stayed on. But by the next morning the check

524
00:26:51,160 --> 00:26:54,480
Speaker 7: engine light wasn't even anymore. It went off. So but

525
00:26:54,520 --> 00:26:56,520
Speaker 7: I got twenty three point four miles a gallon on

526
00:26:56,560 --> 00:26:58,760
Speaker 7: this trip, despite this fact that there is or was

527
00:26:58,800 --> 00:27:01,040
Speaker 7: something wrong with this, and I've just you know, I'm

528
00:27:01,080 --> 00:27:03,840
Speaker 7: just curious. Why can't it run so smooth that just

529
00:27:03,880 --> 00:27:06,479
Speaker 7: a cruising speed, but you know, run so rough when

530
00:27:06,520 --> 00:27:07,680
Speaker 7: I accelerate.

531
00:27:07,280 --> 00:27:09,960
Speaker 2: Well, because it's when it's underload. Well, let me ask

532
00:27:10,000 --> 00:27:12,600
Speaker 2: you this, when when do you break down and start

533
00:27:12,600 --> 00:27:14,880
Speaker 2: to misfire when you're at a when you're sitting still,

534
00:27:14,880 --> 00:27:16,800
Speaker 2: when you're at a walker, when you're running full.

535
00:27:16,560 --> 00:27:19,480
Speaker 7: Speed, right, running full speed right.

536
00:27:19,400 --> 00:27:21,520
Speaker 2: Cars are the same way. Vehicles are the same way,

537
00:27:21,920 --> 00:27:24,240
Speaker 2: So it's when they're under duress that you usually see

538
00:27:24,240 --> 00:27:27,640
Speaker 2: the the failure. So even though the check engine light

539
00:27:27,680 --> 00:27:30,080
Speaker 2: isn't on now, I'd be curious. I don't know how

540
00:27:30,080 --> 00:27:34,000
Speaker 2: many key cycles you've gone since you had this occur.

541
00:27:34,920 --> 00:27:36,960
Speaker 2: You know, did you happen to scan it for codes

542
00:27:37,080 --> 00:27:38,800
Speaker 2: just to see did it pick out a cylinder? Or

543
00:27:38,800 --> 00:27:41,840
Speaker 2: was it a random misfire? You know? Where was it work?

544
00:27:41,920 --> 00:27:42,159
Speaker 2: It was?

545
00:27:43,240 --> 00:27:45,240
Speaker 7: I took it to my mechanic, but they set it

546
00:27:45,320 --> 00:27:47,280
Speaker 7: the light the check engine lights now and I was probably

547
00:27:47,320 --> 00:27:48,760
Speaker 7: not going to show any codes and they had to

548
00:27:48,840 --> 00:27:50,320
Speaker 7: charge me to do it. You know, when it probably

549
00:27:50,320 --> 00:27:51,879
Speaker 7: wouldn't give them any kind of a readount, you know.

550
00:27:51,920 --> 00:27:53,520
Speaker 7: But they said, if the light comes back on, bring

551
00:27:53,520 --> 00:27:54,520
Speaker 7: it in and we'll look it up.

552
00:27:54,800 --> 00:27:56,400
Speaker 2: Let me guess it won't. The light won't come back

553
00:27:56,400 --> 00:27:58,359
Speaker 2: on until you take a long extended road test.

554
00:27:59,600 --> 00:28:02,120
Speaker 7: Oh now, it actually has been coming off and on

555
00:28:02,200 --> 00:28:04,040
Speaker 7: for maybe a year. But the thing runs so good

556
00:28:04,080 --> 00:28:06,359
Speaker 7: and gives me such good gas mileage. They told me that.

557
00:28:06,600 --> 00:28:08,720
Speaker 7: The mechanic told me it's probably just that little flap

558
00:28:08,760 --> 00:28:10,800
Speaker 7: where you put the you know, the gas nozzle in there.

559
00:28:10,800 --> 00:28:12,639
Speaker 7: It doesn't have a screw on cap anymore. It's just

560
00:28:12,720 --> 00:28:14,639
Speaker 7: kind of, you know, a little push thing that you

561
00:28:14,720 --> 00:28:17,080
Speaker 7: just push through there. And if that doesn't feel right,

562
00:28:17,119 --> 00:28:19,159
Speaker 7: they say, that'll, you know, have that check engine light

563
00:28:19,240 --> 00:28:21,600
Speaker 7: come on it. They thought that's probably all it was,

564
00:28:21,640 --> 00:28:22,800
Speaker 7: because it's been running so good.

565
00:28:22,920 --> 00:28:26,040
Speaker 2: Okay, they're wrong. You know how I know that? You

566
00:28:26,080 --> 00:28:26,800
Speaker 2: know how I know that?

567
00:28:26,920 --> 00:28:27,000
Speaker 7: No?

568
00:28:27,320 --> 00:28:29,040
Speaker 2: Go do you do you have another car in the

569
00:28:29,040 --> 00:28:31,520
Speaker 2: house with a gas cap? Yeah, okay, go take the

570
00:28:31,560 --> 00:28:33,119
Speaker 2: gas cap off and go drive it and put your

571
00:28:33,119 --> 00:28:34,760
Speaker 2: foot to the floor. Does the car turn on the

572
00:28:34,840 --> 00:28:35,560
Speaker 2: check engine light?

573
00:28:37,320 --> 00:28:37,520
Speaker 1: You know?

574
00:28:38,200 --> 00:28:38,400
Speaker 8: No?

575
00:28:38,680 --> 00:28:39,560
Speaker 7: Probably not right.

576
00:28:39,640 --> 00:28:41,800
Speaker 2: If the logic is there, if The logic is a

577
00:28:41,800 --> 00:28:43,240
Speaker 2: loose gas CAP's going to turn on the light and

578
00:28:43,320 --> 00:28:44,959
Speaker 2: has nothing to do with the shutter, means they're just

579
00:28:45,040 --> 00:28:46,640
Speaker 2: they really don't you know. I hate to pick on

580
00:28:46,680 --> 00:28:48,600
Speaker 2: a shop, but I don't understand this kind of logic.

581
00:28:49,200 --> 00:28:51,560
Speaker 2: There's a fold code in there, there's something in there.

582
00:28:51,680 --> 00:28:53,880
Speaker 2: Let's talk. Let's talk in the time we have. How

583
00:28:53,880 --> 00:28:56,080
Speaker 2: does a computer? How does a car know it's broken?

584
00:28:56,400 --> 00:28:58,920
Speaker 2: How do you know when you're sick? You get up

585
00:28:58,920 --> 00:29:01,200
Speaker 2: on Monday, you got to Yeah, you don't feel good, right,

586
00:29:01,600 --> 00:29:03,160
Speaker 2: but you know, is it that you get up on

587
00:29:03,520 --> 00:29:05,760
Speaker 2: Wednesday and you just feel terrible or do you feel

588
00:29:05,760 --> 00:29:08,239
Speaker 2: it coming on Sunday? Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday you get

589
00:29:08,320 --> 00:29:10,400
Speaker 2: up and you got a running nose and water realizing

590
00:29:10,560 --> 00:29:13,560
Speaker 2: you're not going to work. It's usually a couple of days, right.

591
00:29:14,280 --> 00:29:18,760
Speaker 2: So so on a car, all right, it runs tests

592
00:29:18,920 --> 00:29:22,840
Speaker 2: on all its circuits and components every time you turn

593
00:29:22,920 --> 00:29:27,000
Speaker 2: the key and every time you drive it. Every time.

594
00:29:27,720 --> 00:29:32,480
Speaker 2: All right, this isn't this isn't you know, hearsay myth possibility?

595
00:29:32,800 --> 00:29:35,680
Speaker 2: This is law. The Clean Air Act of nineteen ninety one,

596
00:29:35,720 --> 00:29:38,960
Speaker 2: instituted in nineteen ninety six full force, requires us of

597
00:29:39,040 --> 00:29:43,520
Speaker 2: every vehicle equipped with onboard emission levels diagnostic to OBD two.

598
00:29:43,800 --> 00:29:47,200
Speaker 2: All right, period. All right, if the check engine light

599
00:29:47,280 --> 00:29:50,680
Speaker 2: came on on Monday, and depending upon how many turns

600
00:29:50,680 --> 00:29:53,000
Speaker 2: of the key, depending upon your make model of the vehicle,

601
00:29:53,720 --> 00:29:58,480
Speaker 2: within thirty captures of the key cycle, you'll likely find

602
00:29:58,560 --> 00:30:03,000
Speaker 2: a fault code. All right. And for the for the record,

603
00:30:03,280 --> 00:30:06,360
Speaker 2: for the two cents that it's worth, I think one

604
00:30:06,400 --> 00:30:09,160
Speaker 2: of the advantages to make a shop a better shop

605
00:30:09,680 --> 00:30:12,080
Speaker 2: you keep that two hundred dollars scan tool by the

606
00:30:12,120 --> 00:30:14,440
Speaker 2: door when the good customer comes in. And I'm sure

607
00:30:14,440 --> 00:30:16,200
Speaker 2: you're a good customer to these guys. You show up

608
00:30:16,240 --> 00:30:19,640
Speaker 2: for service, you take the five minutes, you walk out there,

609
00:30:19,680 --> 00:30:21,840
Speaker 2: you plug in, you go, Hey, you know what, Mark,

610
00:30:22,080 --> 00:30:24,000
Speaker 2: it's got this fault code. But it's not there. Now,

611
00:30:24,080 --> 00:30:25,760
Speaker 2: let's make an appointment in two weeks, or hey, you

612
00:30:25,760 --> 00:30:28,320
Speaker 2: know what, Mark, here's the fault code. Yeah, I'm probably

613
00:30:28,320 --> 00:30:30,000
Speaker 2: not going to capture it. Keep driving and let it.

614
00:30:30,000 --> 00:30:32,480
Speaker 2: You know, it's it's it's geez. You know, why is

615
00:30:32,480 --> 00:30:35,040
Speaker 2: this all about dollars and cents? It is, but it isn't.

616
00:30:35,080 --> 00:30:38,160
Speaker 2: It's a business, but it isn't. You know, take the

617
00:30:38,200 --> 00:30:40,520
Speaker 2: two minutes. Tell the guy what the fault code is.

618
00:30:40,720 --> 00:30:42,800
Speaker 2: Give it because you know what happens next. We start

619
00:30:42,800 --> 00:30:45,160
Speaker 2: to create rumors, and we start to create problems, and

620
00:30:45,200 --> 00:30:47,400
Speaker 2: we drive customers to people that don't know what they're doing,

621
00:30:47,480 --> 00:30:49,080
Speaker 2: that are willing to do it for free, and we

622
00:30:49,120 --> 00:30:51,400
Speaker 2: start throwing parts at the cars that don't fix anything.

623
00:30:52,880 --> 00:30:55,480
Speaker 2: So I want you to I want you to replicate

624
00:30:55,520 --> 00:30:57,440
Speaker 2: this fault code. I want you to have this light

625
00:30:57,800 --> 00:30:59,560
Speaker 2: come on and off, on and off, on and off,

626
00:30:59,720 --> 00:31:01,200
Speaker 2: and then I want you to go to your mechanic

627
00:31:01,200 --> 00:31:02,680
Speaker 2: and tell him he's got to scan it for free.

628
00:31:02,720 --> 00:31:04,560
Speaker 2: Tell him, I said, so, have him call me. You

629
00:31:04,600 --> 00:31:06,040
Speaker 2: know how to find me. Find me in the shop.

630
00:31:06,080 --> 00:31:08,719
Speaker 2: I'll talk to the guy. All right, It'll take them,

631
00:31:08,800 --> 00:31:12,880
Speaker 2: all of them, I'll take them all the five. Yeah,

632
00:31:12,960 --> 00:31:15,800
Speaker 2: if the light came on on Tuesday, have him scan it,

633
00:31:16,280 --> 00:31:19,440
Speaker 2: see if there's something there. All right, if he's going

634
00:31:19,520 --> 00:31:21,840
Speaker 2: to end up fixing it, ask him what would it

635
00:31:21,840 --> 00:31:23,600
Speaker 2: couse just to scan the light. If he's going to

636
00:31:23,680 --> 00:31:25,880
Speaker 2: be like that, it doesn't take a lot of effort.

637
00:31:25,880 --> 00:31:31,120
Speaker 2: It's five minutes. Because my concern is this, if this

638
00:31:31,280 --> 00:31:36,400
Speaker 2: engine is truly misfiring, all right, every time you stutter step.

639
00:31:36,920 --> 00:31:39,360
Speaker 2: You know, you ever watch somebody with a limp walk

640
00:31:40,160 --> 00:31:42,360
Speaker 2: and they start to win some in pain, more and

641
00:31:42,400 --> 00:31:45,760
Speaker 2: more the more steps they take, all right, because they're

642
00:31:45,760 --> 00:31:48,200
Speaker 2: not putting load on the knee correctly or some part

643
00:31:48,240 --> 00:31:51,760
Speaker 2: of their body. They're making something else work harder and overcompensate.

644
00:31:52,320 --> 00:31:55,040
Speaker 2: Same thing with a vehicle, all right. If this engine

645
00:31:55,080 --> 00:32:00,840
Speaker 2: is misfiring, we're overloading the catalytic converters. We're we're leading

646
00:32:00,880 --> 00:32:04,320
Speaker 2: the cats towards a failure. So you know, when do

647
00:32:04,360 --> 00:32:07,360
Speaker 2: we want to begin the repair process when the cat's

648
00:32:07,400 --> 00:32:10,280
Speaker 2: completely gone and it's seven grand to replace them, or

649
00:32:10,440 --> 00:32:13,000
Speaker 2: when it's you know, fifteen hundred and two thousand dollars

650
00:32:13,000 --> 00:32:15,680
Speaker 2: worth of spark plugs and coils and maybe some fuel

651
00:32:15,680 --> 00:32:20,200
Speaker 2: system cleaning. You know, this isn't rocket science. It doesn't

652
00:32:20,240 --> 00:32:21,480
Speaker 2: have to be, that's for sure.

653
00:32:21,760 --> 00:32:25,920
Speaker 7: Yeah, so it's got original spark plugs. By the way,

654
00:32:26,000 --> 00:32:28,240
Speaker 7: how many how why would they run smooth as that

655
00:32:28,160 --> 00:32:30,640
Speaker 7: a steady speed and this fire at high speed?

656
00:32:30,640 --> 00:32:34,640
Speaker 2: How many miles are on it? Okay, it's time for plugs.

657
00:32:35,640 --> 00:32:39,360
Speaker 2: Why why the difference when it's because have you ever

658
00:32:39,400 --> 00:32:41,440
Speaker 2: been able to walk on a flat level road and

659
00:32:41,480 --> 00:32:42,920
Speaker 2: then you get to that uphill and you start to

660
00:32:42,920 --> 00:32:46,760
Speaker 2: struggle because you've gotten older. Sure, why is it like that?

661
00:32:47,320 --> 00:32:49,600
Speaker 2: Because you've gotten older, because parts are worn, because they

662
00:32:49,600 --> 00:32:52,960
Speaker 2: don't operate as well. You know, the least you could

663
00:32:52,960 --> 00:32:54,840
Speaker 2: do is pull a couple of plugs out and see

664
00:32:54,840 --> 00:32:57,040
Speaker 2: the gap. And when you find out they're supposed to

665
00:32:57,040 --> 00:32:59,040
Speaker 2: be gapped at forty five thousands and they're gapped at

666
00:32:59,080 --> 00:33:05,040
Speaker 2: seventy because they're worn, you know, I mean, I got

667
00:33:05,040 --> 00:33:06,880
Speaker 2: to tell you from my seat here, this sounds like

668
00:33:06,880 --> 00:33:09,160
Speaker 2: a classic case if somebody hasn't done proper maintenance and

669
00:33:09,240 --> 00:33:13,440
Speaker 2: due diligence by now at one hundred and twenty. I'm

670
00:33:13,440 --> 00:33:15,320
Speaker 2: not yelling at you, Mark, but by now, at one

671
00:33:15,360 --> 00:33:17,840
Speaker 2: hundred and twenty, owe you owe that vehicle a set

672
00:33:17,880 --> 00:33:20,800
Speaker 2: of plugs. You probably owe it a set of ignition coils.

673
00:33:20,840 --> 00:33:23,440
Speaker 2: By now, make sure you put something good quality in

674
00:33:23,480 --> 00:33:26,120
Speaker 2: there and by all means a good fuel system cleaning,

675
00:33:26,480 --> 00:33:29,120
Speaker 2: because you know it's been running like this for a while.

676
00:33:29,560 --> 00:33:31,440
Speaker 2: But the first step before I do any of this,

677
00:33:31,960 --> 00:33:33,840
Speaker 2: I'm going to scan it and see what fault code

678
00:33:33,880 --> 00:33:36,080
Speaker 2: I have. And even if I don't have a fault code,

679
00:33:36,360 --> 00:33:38,320
Speaker 2: I'm going to go into Mote six data and look

680
00:33:38,360 --> 00:33:40,640
Speaker 2: and see what that is, because that'll tell me what

681
00:33:40,680 --> 00:33:43,240
Speaker 2: test is running, and what test is failing, and what

682
00:33:43,280 --> 00:33:46,760
Speaker 2: test is creating the fault code. Tell your mechanic call me,

683
00:33:46,880 --> 00:33:47,480
Speaker 2: I'll see you.

684
00:33:47,520 --> 00:34:00,880
Speaker 8: Bye, Welcome back the car doctor here.

685
00:34:01,480 --> 00:34:03,040
Speaker 2: You know, I want to talk about Mark's phone. Call

686
00:34:03,040 --> 00:34:06,280
Speaker 2: there for a minute, you know, as a repair shop

687
00:34:06,600 --> 00:34:09,239
Speaker 2: and for my repair shops out there listening, and you

688
00:34:09,280 --> 00:34:10,759
Speaker 2: send me your thoughts. You tell me if you think

689
00:34:10,800 --> 00:34:13,640
Speaker 2: I'm crazy. I understand it's a business. I understand we're

690
00:34:13,640 --> 00:34:15,120
Speaker 2: they're to make money because we're trying to keep the

691
00:34:15,200 --> 00:34:16,680
Speaker 2: lights on and feed our families and go to the

692
00:34:16,719 --> 00:34:20,799
Speaker 2: next step. But to ignore a flashing check engine light

693
00:34:20,920 --> 00:34:24,720
Speaker 2: under acceleration, that's that to me. Mark came in telling

694
00:34:24,760 --> 00:34:27,319
Speaker 2: me he's having chest pains, he's sweating, and he's short

695
00:34:27,360 --> 00:34:29,640
Speaker 2: of breath. He's about to have a heart attack. Well,

696
00:34:29,680 --> 00:34:31,879
Speaker 2: and you know that would be the same equivalent as saying, well,

697
00:34:31,960 --> 00:34:34,719
Speaker 2: until you're twitching on the floor, there's nothing I can

698
00:34:34,760 --> 00:34:37,640
Speaker 2: do for you. I think the repair shop has to

699
00:34:37,680 --> 00:34:39,920
Speaker 2: look at the customer and say, now, this guy's are

700
00:34:39,920 --> 00:34:42,040
Speaker 2: a pretty good customer. He's in here on a regular basis,

701
00:34:42,120 --> 00:34:43,520
Speaker 2: and I'm not going to make that decision for that

702
00:34:43,560 --> 00:34:45,480
Speaker 2: repair shop. I owe that guy an apology for that.

703
00:34:46,000 --> 00:34:48,960
Speaker 2: But from the perspective of you know, if the guy's

704
00:34:48,960 --> 00:34:50,959
Speaker 2: in here on a regular basis and he's been coming

705
00:34:51,000 --> 00:34:53,200
Speaker 2: in for a while, they at least all them that

706
00:34:53,400 --> 00:34:56,560
Speaker 2: five minute look in the driveway. Hey there's nothing here.

707
00:34:57,080 --> 00:34:58,720
Speaker 2: But if we can take it out to the highway,

708
00:34:59,040 --> 00:35:01,560
Speaker 2: make the problem happen, and scan it thin and see

709
00:35:01,600 --> 00:35:04,839
Speaker 2: the fault, that begins the start of a diagnostic moment

710
00:35:04,880 --> 00:35:07,120
Speaker 2: where we can actually charge for that, come to a

711
00:35:07,160 --> 00:35:09,360
Speaker 2: conclusion and help take care of the vehicle. Because I

712
00:35:09,400 --> 00:35:12,560
Speaker 2: guarantee you this, you find yourself in that situation and

713
00:35:12,600 --> 00:35:14,839
Speaker 2: that customer finds out, hey, if I had done something

714
00:35:14,880 --> 00:35:16,800
Speaker 2: a year ago, I would have to put catalytic converters

715
00:35:16,840 --> 00:35:19,359
Speaker 2: on it. They're not going to be happy, and neither

716
00:35:19,400 --> 00:35:21,680
Speaker 2: are you. I'm running ady in the car doctor. Good

717
00:35:21,719 --> 00:35:25,040
Speaker 2: mechanics aren't expensive, They're priceless. See you
