You're a great mechanic however your videos are longer than it would take to fix the car.

Hey Eric you still own the Honda
Does anyone else notice how flustered Eric gets when then beautiful Mrs. O. is in the scene?
Too funny!
Hi Eric, love your vids, really enjoyed the Ford F-150 spark plug removal vid, and as a formal Honda owner loved this one. Also I cant help but to notice Mrs.O is wearing dreamcatcher earrings?. Im Native myself. Keep up the great videos.
When Mrs O shows up, I see hope.

I know I'm commenting on an old video but… Is there really no video for the repair of this engine???? not in the playlist, etc
I was just going to say "look at how his wife looks at him. She is just so in love with him." Then I saw the first comment said same. lol Man ERIC YOU ARE ONE LUCKY S.O.B!!!
Engine turns real easy with low compression!
Your a lucky man Mr O to have a lady like Mrs O.
Hey Eric,
So what is the final disposition of your Civic did you fix it or what?
Yo hablo español
What was the end result of the red civic repair? Did you just do a cylinder head job or replace the entire engine?
You've blown a seal.
Just fix the damn thing and leave my personal life out of it. O.K., pal.
This is an instructional video for the quality of patience in significant others. Eric O. is blessed to have a good partner in grime….
Quick tip to find compression stroke.. put a balloon ontop of the hose that's in the plug well. When it's the compression stroke it will inflate
How do I do a leak down on a Prius
Mrs. O was the star on this one
She did nothing to ruin your intro except just stand there and be lovely. Stop complaining! 😋
When are you doing the Part 3 of the actual repair ? ? Presuming the customer does not decide to junk the car.
