I literally have spent hours upon hours watching your videos. Opposed to your vids being scripted for training , your videos are always real world issues never knowing what you’re going to run into. Love each and everyone. First car engine I rebuilt was a 67’ Slant six….And that was around 1972, one wire to run that engine ha ha ha . Somewhere about 50 years to ago. Dead battery : 1. Bad battery ?2.bad alternator ?3.bad voltage regulator ? 4. Bad starter ? 5. Bad starter solenoid ? The height of diagnosing ha ha ha . Being a 15 year old kid no funds to shoot the parts cannon at it, had to figure it out. Now days could still be the alternator running at default voltage and no comm with the PCM……your in-depth videos show exactly why, what and how…….of course Scotty is just going to throw an alternator in, But why ? That’s where you come in…..test and make the call ha ha
In my years of being in business, the thing you have to remember is this.
For about every 10 customers you do a great job for will only go and tell maybe 2 of their friends, but if you do a horrible job and rude to a customer those 10 people will go and tell hundreds of people!
if youre worried about high power rifle and backstops youre using the wrong bullets use light thin skined bullets like for varmit hunting just dont shoulder shoot the deer with them shotgun 22s and pistols are more likely to richet cause of low speed and heavy bullets.
How come Chevy wasn't replacing frames in there trucks like Toyota did? They are lucky to make it 3 salt seasons here in Vermont. Of course GM being run by the government prolly has a lot to do with no recalls.
I have an employee that wants to go to tech school like Josh… a school girl that wants to be a nurse like Hannah…. My wife is the parts manager…. service manger…..secretary…. and the BOSS….. I do what the boss lady tells me
Hands down favorite thing about you is your unapologetic honesty and unwillingness to change your priorities when it comes to your family. Much respect for you eric.
I thought about the Earthquake 20V impacts but I got a Milwaukee 2763-20 High Torque Impact and 2 M18 4.0 batteries for $220 ($40 less then the Earthquake 1/2") and then I bought a Milwaukee 2754-20 3/8" impact for $130 (another $40 less then the Earthquake 3/8"). All of these were New. The Earthquake Impacts might be great, but they are not really "Harbor Freight Priced".
I had an 02 PT Cruiser that was leaking power steering fluid and I put in some power steering fluid with "Stop leak" in and it stopped the leak from dripping on the ground at least. That lasted for years without the drip returning. Little did I know that it actually was supposed to take Chrysler ATF for the power steering. I guess it was a happy accident. Man, I did not take care of that thing.
I just caught onto WUW, was looking forward to it, and setting aside time etc. Now my WHILE life is just turned upside down and whatnot. Tried the brake clean and rag thing but no joy. I do have brownies though. So at least I got that going for me.
Check out a youtuber, Jim Pytel. He does voice-over digital whiteboard videos for the lecture part of an electrical/industrial controls course. The digital whiteboard software is, in my opinion, a good way to present "powerpoint" type information on video. Not sure how well this would work edited in with the hands-on video portions, but I'd say its worth checking out.
Why do the electric fans in Hondas cycle with the A/C compressor? Isn't that bad engineering? Wouldn't you want the condenser to cool while the A/C is temporarily disengaged? And what about the constant in-rush amperage required to get the fans going every time? This is weird to me
Ooooohhh, thumb drive crash…major sucks 🙁 always make sure to close all open folders and programs using the files and tell the computer to "eject" the drive. This ensures everything stays where it should! Also might look into an external hard drive. I've got one that's pocket size and holds 1T of data. They are easy to swap between computers. Thumb drives can be glitchy 🙁 sucks putting all that time and energy into something and poof it's gone 🙁
Some folks have been asking about Rob at One Auto. It is my understanding from someone on Leon's channel that he closed his shop and went to work for someone else. If this is incorrect please correct it.

If you don’t take care of your family no body else will.

Torch is best. Liquid wrench is second best.

More respect for you Eric after the deer baiting comments. It's NOT hunting, period. It should only be allowed for disabled hunts….my opinion.

There is a saying about how if you do good work the customer will tell 1 other person, but if you do bad work they will tell at least 10.
The bait has to be certified organic though. Haha!!
