    Overhead hoists require regular inspections.
    At least a annual inspection (OSHA).
    To replace a hoist cable (any load bearing componet) will require a load test.
    Most hoist operstors manuals shpuld have a monthly inspection check-list.
    OSHA will always wsnt to see your hoist inspection documentation.

  16. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Brian Lightfoot says:

    Curious as to why the factory thought a 6" hole in the splash shield was a good idea just in case somebody needed to mechanically turn the crank pulley. The entire shield comes off with just 4 – 10mm bolts. Or how about a small removable cover over that peek-a-boo hole? Even duct tape over the hole would keep water off the belt.

  17. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars l wilton says:

    And here I thought you were going to end the video with cleaning that grease off the left door handle. 🙂

  18. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Moofiez says:

    At exactly one minute into this I am going to comment. I own a 2000 Dodge Grand Caravan. I am guessing the tensioner is going out or it is a bad belt. If you also own a similar year model Dodge Caravan or Grand Caravan (or Town & Country I am sure) you will understand why I guess this. I parked mine about 7yrs ago. It sits there now gathering tree sap. In the about 6 or 7yrs I drove it I put 12 tensioners on it and about 14 belts. In one year alone I put 4 on it. A flaw of design they say. Nothing can fix it other than just keep putting new on it when the belt starts jumping off at the slightest hint of moisture and that includes very humid days. I always had a tensioner fund just waiting for when it needed another one. Other than the tensioner it was a very dependable van that never gave me one moment of issue, other than the tensioner.

  19. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Wallace says:

    May be un-necessary, but if it were my vehicle, I would also want the idlers replaced…..so all parts would be new at once!!

    I have not wqorked on cars since my teens (now almost 77) but some things you never forget. My wife'd Toyota Vios needed a serpentine belt, how hard can it be? Hahaha – like your job the tensioner when I finally got it to full reverse still did not allow the belt to go om. Just tantalisingly half way. So old trick – get it on/around all pulleys except crank pulley on which it onbly wqent half way, got wife to hit starter button momentarily. So long as it is on the right half of the crank pulley instant sucess, belt on. Alternative for you would have been as you were holding it mostly on, large wrench on craqnk pulley bolt and simply wind it on by turning the lpulley. We old codger's were into kerbside bodge-ups while you were still an evil gleam in your dad's eyes lol/ Love your vids though, keep it up.

  23. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Kip Cook says:

    Hydrigen Dioxide? I think not. If it was Hydrogen Dioxide, it would be heavy water, the material sunk by the Norwegieans to keep it from the Germans who wanted to use it in an effort to make a fission bomb. Water is Hydrogen Oxide, or possibly more technically Dihydrogen Oxide.

  26. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars William Morris says:

    I shim the pulley with a piece of wood so it doesn’t damage then I can pull tight

  27. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Jimmy Farley says:

    Wet belt slipping bad tension pully possibly

  36. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Vekurus says:

    That's exactly what would happen with my 07' Corolla. Almost didn't matter what size puddle. Funny thing is, shop said "NAH" to the belt and tensioner.

  37. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Steve Laminack says:

    Of course, the serpentine belt. They should stop driving in puddles, that will fix it.

  44. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Kenneth Bush says:

    Has to be a belt issue.

  45. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Addison D'Entremont says:

    I ran into this I ended up changing the power steering belt and the alternator belt they were pretty stretched out and cleaned the up the pullies with break clean i did noticed that a few coolent hoses were leaking and I replaced the hose clamps afterwards she never had a problem it's the same make vehicle but just a different model

  50. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Stephen R says:

    I've never seen a belt slip that easily. I thought some of the pulleys/bearings were stiff too.

  55. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Jason Halverson says:

    i'm assuming it's ok to spray water over the engine like at the end? Somebody told me once no to do that, water can get in places it shouldn't and short something out or do damage. yet i've had others tell me they pressure wash their engine compartment with no problems so i'm wondering, was that just an older issue and engines are more water tight now?

  56. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Lee Swift says:

    Survey says, ding ding ding it's a belt, possible tensioner.

  57. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Jonathan Deitch says:

    Hah … "Do you know what the problem is?"

    Uh, Ray … I drive a 97 Jeep with a 4.0. I'm intimately familiar with what causes that problem, and so is every single other person that drives such a vehicle.

    (the #1 mistake people make is not properly tensioning that belt, as Jeeps of that vintage don't have an auto tensioner)

  58. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Chris Single says:

    Pretty sure you're not supposed to wash the car while it's running

  59. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Mitch Jenks says:

    After I made the first comment now I see you watc washing the engine down a chance of blowing something electrical you just spread it everywhere what's wrong with you

  60. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Mike Stewart says:

    slipping drive belts due to water thats why it was making such a racket

  62. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Russ Walker says:

    Glad I saw this, we own a 2012 Santa Fe AWD with the 4 Cyl DOHC engine with 90K miles, this procedure is nice to know.

  63. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Mitch Jenks says:

    Why did you put on the belt that way there's the couple tensioner bolts losing those suckers up and the pulley would have came a little closer together and you just slip it on the belt with the ealse and then you tighten the bolts back up and it pulls the tensioner in the pulley would go right into either decreasing or increase in the slack in the belt you didn't bother the detention adjustment bolts at all for adjustment you just slipped it on that's not good that's probably the second belt that was put on there the mechanic before you did the same thing and so the belt is inappropriately tensioned it's not adjusted right so I guess the belt on this will start doing the same crap again eventually

  64. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Jim Garrett says:

    Loosen the alternator?

    Hydrogen dioxide? I know of H2O (water) and H2O2 (peroxide). I don't think HO2 would be creatable. H-atoms have one bond and O-atoms have two bonds. There is no configuration of HO2 possible where all available bonds are fulfilled, which is a requirement of chemical substances.

    If OSHA sees this video someone will be in boiling water. That lift should be locked out so it will not function. In addition, and this is a fact. If a worker had the misfortune to be killed by that lift, the owner of the place will end up behind bars. You are a smart guy, WTF are you doing?

  84. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Kelly Hodges says:

    I put a block of wood between the tensioner pulley and the lower pulley to keep the tensioner from moving while tightening the bolt . Hey Ray , you wondered what the metal temp sensor was on a Chevy van . I had a 72 Caddy with a 472 engine , that same sensor screwed into an unused bolt hole in the back of a cylinder head . It was to inhibit heat , defrost until it sensed enough heat in the engine to prevent cold air flow from the vents . I looked this up in one of my many Cadillac manuals I inherited. Carry on my friend .

    The ending reminds me of the last time I brought my car in for tires. I was sitting in the waiting area and I hear “AH F@UK! WHAT THE H@LL!” followed by a crowd of giggles. Then there was more laughter and yelps and remarks like “QUIT IT!”. I cleaned out and detailed my interior before taking it there, but I forgot I left my fly swatter bug zapper racket in the rear passenger seat 💀

    Haven’t not finished the video pauses at the time you asked owning a 2011 Kia cerato SX has the same motor next time grab a stretch belt tool and hold the tensioner as far back as you can and turn the crank pulley to slip it on that’s what I had to do when I replaced my alternator and reused the same belt because it was brand new at the time only a couple weeks old

  95. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars 4SL says:

    look up Rufford Ford Fail on YT. There is one serious puddle. Wet belts are the least of their (self inflicted) problems.
