I love a clean engine bay. I like tire foam and then the hose to make surface parts shiny real quick.
Surprised you didn't pit a new belt on when you had all that out of the way.
🤩🤩🤩
And sometimes you have to fix the second problem to find the first problem. Haha.
I like pumping up the coolant system with lots of pressure and blowing out worn hoses and thermostat seals.
Ray that hose protection sleeve looks very similar to what we used to protect cable looms in aircraft. A tip to remove or move it is to push it together and shuffle it. This relaxes the weave and allows the tube of material to open up in inner diameter, when you pull on it the opposite occurs the weave closes up and it contracts around whatever it is over. Its a bit of a faff to do but we didn't have the option of digging into a cable loom with a knife. Great video as always
Is that engine bay build for a V12 since there's so much space between the fan and the radiator?
I have scissors in my toolbox
Wednesday the seventh of Sept. my son purchased a 71 Ford f100. It has 68 thousand miles on it, It is a 302 ci, automatic, after market air and an am/fm/tape player. A great looking old truck except the paint is Texas sun burned. Looking at the van you are working on and looking under the hood of that truck it is sad how much stuff they have added.
It didn’t need a radiator……
Tom Macdonald in the background.. Man. He is asking to make somebody mad.
A van is a machine, so 100% machine.
Ok, I'm only a little over 3½ minutes in, and I see a potential long term problem here. When Ray was over at the radiator hose work area, he panned over the radiator cap opening that clearly had green anit-freeze, but it had either Dex-Cool in the overflow tank, or the water in it was some sort of rusty brown, possibly both. Ok… back to the show…
Nice and Shiney
I would love to see a video of tracing down an emissions problem in a 2002 Toyota Tacoma. Probably not in Florida. I wouldn't think Deathsantis would have any emission requirements in that state.
Wouldn’t 3 lines at once be doodleydoo cubed?

That truck is a carpet steam cleaning wagon. The pump in the back is usually powered by a small car engine (which also heats the water)
Adding to the confusion there's usually a separate one way water circuit for the cleaning system to the vacuum head
I don't know what that was, loud noises… followed by congratulatory clapping… musta been good!
Dude went ree
hope you watched for leaks before wash engine.:)…3phones meant you got CUBED
OMG, Your washing the engine without makeing sure water does not get into an electrical wiring connections. your encourageing rust and corrosion to form in the electric system wireing.
Dude yall do motorcycle alignment… thats righteous.
spawns in as a lv 10 mechanic but toxic trait has beef with the phone
UV Dye is much faster, just sayin.
I must have missed you putting the PCV back on during repair, after you pointed out the error code that might bring the vehicle back in if forgotten….
Is there a reason for not replacing the belts while you had it opened up?
Truck mount carpet extractor…
Damnit bro. While I really do enjoy your videos. Truly, they bring a smile to my face and I can listen to you effing monolog while I do my job. The only thing that is killing me, is the Phone in the shop. Every time and I mean every time I hear it ring I start saying "do0dled0odleydoo0" and for that I hold you solely responsible.
But Thank you for the content man. I do appreciate it. I also bought stock in Break cleaner.
Run the machine in the back and make sure the heat exchanger is not leaking into the radiator system. It can overpressurise pressurize the coolant system.
You should tell the guy his hose is hosed 😁😁
Screw clamps used to be very good. First they were made of chrome plated spring tempered heat treated steel. Cheaper ones weren't chrome plated. These last forever. Then the best were made of stainless steel. These also just lasted. The laat box of screw clamps I bought were soft mild steel. I was able to buy some good ones at the parts store, but soon those gave way to the soft steel. The way Ray bent that back over the screw showed that these clamps are soft mild steel.
I rarely say the old stuff was better, but this is one time I will.
I had a lot of the Good Ol'Days. I like now just fine, thank you. I will be 83 in 4 months.
Cars earlier than 1980 should only be driven in parades.
Could have slided the protective net to the other side of the hose, seems it had plenty of room there
I know the engine bay is basically open to the outside environment, but what about all the electrical stuff & sensors when flooding everything with a hose? It doesn’t matter, I guess?
Same applies in the electronics industry, the first problem is almost always created by the second problem.

i like starting on the hardest mode it gets easyer when you lower the game mode
What about water spots??
1st class very kool great info.,, AAAAAAAAAAA++++++++++++ again great video I liked it a lot ,keep up the great work.
funny about the water hose used for the coolant…..ive worked at every dealership in my city and that is all what they use to mix there coolant 50/50 with straight out of the garden hose
I hate working on vans. Almost rather see a mini roll into the shop.
I know you are in Florida but your accent says you are from Michigan. 😀
Why no brake cleaner Ray? Your arms got all oily…
Dear God, I wish people would delete the fan clutch in these vans and go electronic fans. It's ridiculous having to remove a bazillion parts just to remove a fan shroud.
What has been your most difficult diagnosis?? Most difficult repair?? Most stubborn part to replace, hubs are a pain, but what else?
So how much was a genuine GM radiator?
Customer states, “engine is wetter now than when they brought it in.” 😜
I see van, my brain says, umm nope. Kudos to your bravery on that battlefield. 🫡 I hope you remembered that pcv connection so you don’t throw the dreaded P0170 code.
