    But Raaaay, it’s not OCD, it’s CDO, cause alphabetical order is just as pleasing as letters facing the same way.

    The absolute state of some of these cars. Not catastrophic at least, but insane neglect.

  5. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Jeremy Covelli says:

    I don't understand things like this. Even if you're completely mechanically uninclined, if you have no AC you'd still open the hood and check that the belt is on?

    I'm wondering, I see you injecting "UV" dye and on your other videos one can see leakage of said dye; have you ever used a black light to fluoresce the dye?

    You'll probably go deaf when you're about 50 when your ears start to ring and everything else starts to go wrong with you too but don't leave your eyes go to hell wear eye protection at all times. A nice face shield would do.

    Back in the day 60's 70's to be exact, my dad said the job on a car is not done, until you get a face full of sh!t!!!

    ray remember that if you have a high discharge you’ll have a high suction unless the evaporator is plugged or fan not working. Also high discharge could be caused by slightly dirty or dirty condenser.

    This is why I'm glad my car has only a single accessory belt on its transversely mounted engine. It doesn't matter which way the letters face!

    dang, mechanics need to spend so much money on tools to do a job, thats why i retired from it. customers dont realize that deal!

  14. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Ian MacNeill says:

    I guess that I might have given the A/C compressor a few manual turns before hooking up the belt just in case it might have seized and that caused the old belt to fly off. Just a precaution…

    Maybe use the old belt to get rust off the pulleys?

  19. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Craig Wood says:

    What drive me nuts is that made in China 🇨🇳 shit written on the belt.

  20. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars p z says:

    you call that rust sometime in ny you pass rust on the toilet after doing any major underneath jobs

    What makes your videos really enjoyable to watch is the fact that you talk to the camera like the viewer is there in camera with you. Resulting a fun experience that personalizes the video make it seem like your actually there when watching the video.

    That's a video filming skill you don't always see on YouTube. Excellent!

  22. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars aussieaeromodeler says:

    so after watching this video …..curiosity got the better of me …..had to check my serpentine belt , the letters were backwards , your OCD triggered mine , thanks to you drawing my attention to it !!! ………OCD fixed the troublesome backward facing lettering ……….

    Got any hats or T's? I would buy one.

  25. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars M Lemo says:

    Yeah. My 77 Chrysler has 2 belts V belts to drive the compressor and I can't handle when the lettering isn't lined up but wouldn't you know that one is always longer than the other and they start to move away from each other. I refuse to look at them when it's running or I'll go absolutely bonkers trying to get them together again.

  26. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars TheDaily Prepper says:

    Could you have started the engine and then hit the balancer pulley with a small wire brush?

  27. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars John Angelico says:

    Re the lettering. My favourite management guru taught me that consistency is something you have to be inconsistent about. 🙂

    Just explain to the customer that you have to wait to replace a high side valve and if there was any line seals that were easy to reach I would have replaced those too on on the line set if there was a one or two that's really easy to reach just replace those tell him to come back when they get the part the high side valve

    Gotta have a/c in Fl! Just finished rebuilding the a/c on my 2000 GTP, compressor, condenser, evap., new lines, vacuum and recharge. 38 degrees on full blast! It's so cold it hurts, I LOVE IT!

  32. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Eric A says:

    Ray I enjoy your channel. I can count on laughing out loud at least once during every episode. I am OCD too, so aligning the lettering on serpentine belts makes sense to me too. YAY OCD! Love your videos!

  35. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Hans Oosterom says:

    Funny you should mention ocd regarding letter number alignment on those belts. I know an electrician who said when installing wall plates for switches etc, he always turns the screws so the slots are all either horizontal or vertical. I thought I was the only one, and I'm not an electrician. I had to laugh. Bringing order out of chaos one screw and belt at a time. Fun and informative content. Goood clear video.

  36. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Scott Sluggos Rule! says:

    Get yourself a small rare earth(strong) magnet to hold belt in place while u wrestle it onto other pully

  37. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Ernst Rudolf Hayward says:

    Ja

  38. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars repairdroid77 says:

    I always put my belts with the letters facing backwards. My truck is now faster in reverse. I was using belts without letters but the dammn buckles made so much noise over the pulleys.

  39. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars SilensMort says:

    you found a cap for them too on the low side. you do go above and beyond, sir.

  40. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Daniel Ventura says:

    Those fan clutches often fail.

  41. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Luke Yarasheski says:

    I was concerned that you didn't check the compressor pulley and clutch. Also. An oz of oil plus 1.6 oz of dye is gonna be overcharged man. Cmon

  42. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Ohio Blade and Cutlery says:

    I love all the 🎶 do-da do-da do that you do every time the phone rings in your videos. Makes me laugh every time 🤣

  43. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Ifixem says:

    Careful: There's a TSB on that platform. It says "compressor oil-slugging" will cause the tensioner to wildly oscillate, usually causing it to smack against the trans cooler lines and/or throw the belt off. The fix is an upgraded compressor and accumulator. I think the TSB is on "Gates" brand's website somewhere. Happy wrenching 🤙

    Ray love your channel ♥️♥️♥️ keep up the good work 👍👍 i watch every new video love your sense of humour. And commentary. I also learn a lot by watching how you diagnose and rrpair vehicles.

    Lol you hit your face with your tool 🤭

  47. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Tony thompson says:

    Never use anything but a hand screwdriver on clamps anyway your right

  48. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Dependable Auto Truck says:

    i just love the ones with the wonderful stretch belt instead of the ones with tensioner. and i never lie

  49. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Mike Wasylkewicz says:

    Ray you really need a 5/16 hose clamp T-handle torque wrench found in Lowe's in the plumbing section, then you can do your signature "click"

  50. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Joex51 says:

    I did the same thing for my 1500 around the same time this video came out had to do it from the ground new belt and tensioner
