    Cool thanks

  5. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Josh says:

    I know this video is old but here's to hope. my 09 Mariner has an issue with the battery light coming on at the moment. I just got my water pump replaced and ignition switch as well if that has anything to do with it. I drive, the battery light goes off but the steering seems off. I come to a stop and it lights. Is this a bad battery? or alternator? Again 2009 Mercury Mariner

    Great job

    Getting slammed with work is a testament to your abilities and fair practice. If you do quality work at a fair price they will beat your doors down to get it. Conversely if you do poor work or rip people off you you sign yourself up for a negative add campaign. I had a really bad experience at Firestone once and I told everyone I knew to stay away. If these people only knew the damage they do to their business when they try to max out the charges with bogus repairs.

    How to make more videos: 1) find nuclear reactor. 2) jump inside nuclear containment chamber. 3) grow an extra pair of hands. 4) hold camera, work on cars, and eat krispy cream all at once.

  13. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Dirtyharry70585 says:

    try doing an old escape where the alt is in the rear passenger side 🙁

    I'm over here thinking my brain has finally signed off permanently … I'm saying, "What the heck is he talking about? I don't remember this?" That's because I HAVEN'T WATCHED IT YET!! I'm a big dummy, lol! I thought this was a follow up to that other Escape! DOH! 😁

    Now, to watch the videos in the CORRECT order … 🤪

  22. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars watajob says:

    No, no, no! Much of the time I can't do it. And, while you're too nice a guy to say so, lotsa' other mechanics can't do it, either. I still think you don't realize that you're in rarefied air when it comes to being a technician/diagnostician/mechanic. Remember: hen's teeth?

  23. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars El Cheapo says:

    Thanks for the closure, Eric. Glad to hear business is so good!

  24. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Phil H says:

    should you of ran the evap test with the verus? i seen it had an option. no doubt that code is fixed because your a good technician!

  25. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars some random guy says:

    I must be missing something, I don't see any advantage to the " smart charging system " maybe a small gain in battery longevity, only to be off set in diagnostic and labor charges, I a firm believer " just because you can doesn't mean you should " school of thought

  26. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars throttle bottle says:

    cart before the horse, out of order videos?
