Working on motorcycles there are many tight spots so I bought a 1/4" box end rachet to fit all my 1/4' drive bits . This has saved me many times .

Alright is Kenny's "action"

He he he! I’m now listening for the “Alright” as your working. Love the honesty in the way you work including those ‘forgot to fit’ moments. That was a cool little tool. I’ve got something similar that takes those mini screwdriver bits one end and a 1/4 drive ratchet at the other end. A very handy little thing to have in your toolbox. Years ago I found a great little “Cheat” tool. Bicycle spokes. A handy length of stiff wire with a little hooked at one end. Great for retrieving the dreaded dropped 10mm socket! I discovered them when, many years ago, I needed to pull that little C clip holding a manual window winder handle off. The hooked end of the spoke was perfect for the job. You’d be amazed at how many time one will come in useful.

No explanation needed we are all human aren't we😃✌

I bought a 2002 Ford Taurus SES off of my cousin. With only 116,000 miles on it. Still a nice car! Of course he gave me the family discount.😂 Anyway,it needed a new radiator and the radiator had to come out through the bottom of the car! I can work on my own vehicles for the most parts,but i had to end up taking it to the trusted and very honest mechanic i use when i do have to use him. I told a guy yesterday,these car company's could save a lot of money and fire all of their engineers if they would just ask us poor folks how things should be made! 😂😂

The noise is probably from it being overheated! Great video, brother!

That screwdriver tool looks really great.

VW Cruton - as in salad topping ? Good information , as always .

@Wrenching With Kenny Harbor Freight 92630 is a Ratcheting Right Angle Screwdriver. You can pull off the knob and use 1/4" sockets as well. It's only $2.99 and is very well made. The steal of the Century.

I actually took the nose and radiator out to change the transmission. It was a pleasure to work on

well done video with lots of detail.

Kenny you're a good man and a good technician thank you. Also happy Easter.

I had that tool

You should have explained the cost savings of bending the AC line out of the way and now how the customer will hold your responsible for any AC issues in the future because you opened the AC system . I love your videos keep them coming.

i have a little ratcheting screwdriver like that but it does not have the big knob which looks nice. it does have assorted tips in a carry case so it is helpful in tight spaces.

Thought parts left over after ment you did the job right 😂

Great video Kenny!

What happened to the days when we could change a radiator with a half inch wrench and a screwdriver?And all in about 20 minutes

Excellent video, Kenny!

I wonder how many times they've overheated that motor because they ran the cooling system dry? I don't know about that particular motor, but some coolant sensors won't read properly when they're not submerged in coolant.

don’t worry about the head light it is fine, spend you hard earned $$ on other items.

its allright to say allright

Ray-de-a-tor is how I say it. Also Klein also makes a little ratchet like the Lisle one you showed but is even more compact and it comes with a 1/4 drive bit so that you can use it with sockets.

Lisle 64250 right angle ratcheting screwdriver, Snap On also sales a Bluepoint version.

Also, a great time to check your belt. So much easier to do with all this stuff off already

Good job Kenny, but why wouldn't you change the radiator when you change the radiator?

Thank s

You should not use nornal hose clamps on plastic hose fitting because they don't allow for expansion, thats why you have to keep tightening them up, the hose fitting then breaks off.

Liquid to air heat exchanger is a bit much so radiator it is, another down and dirty video, short and sweet, cool tool I have lots of different offset screwdrivers from when I was stereo/security/cellphone installer, you can never have too many tools!

Yeah me too

Even had the VW emblem on the headlight defuser. Did it even have much oil in it as much as its smoking

Bought one of those tools many years ago but broke the screwdriver part and need to find another.

I usually call it Ray-d-ate-er

I got it from snap on

RAY DEATOR

Yeah, that engine does not sound very healthy to me, either? What can you do, but tell the customer? Good job, Kenny.

Kenny, I don't get why you wouldn't use a 1/4 rachet with a 6 point 1/4 socket (I think mine is marked) and use any driver bit you want? What a ridiculous rad design!

Hey, Kenny do you ever clean and rinse the a/c condenser so it improves air flow to the new radiator. It's just something that relatively simple and I usually do it. Just asking. It seems to improve a/c getting cooler readings inside my cars. As always great job

Which is better... The OEM spring hose clamps or the worm gear clamps?

Great design: AC must be recovered so condenser can come out just to change a radiator !!!

God bless you brother by the way please for the love of God try not to get an LED work light they are so bad for your eyes are used to only use incandescent bulbs the old trouble lights, you know never a problem soon as the LEDs came in all the sudden six years later I have Cataracs talk to my eye doctor very well known my doctor as well, world renowned, and he said sure enough LED lights will ruin your eyes because of the blue light if you can get yellow or something with like a 3000 K then you’re fine but anything higher and it’s gonna cause issues and I’ve also read somewhere else that there’s still radiation emitted from the light more so with the LEDs, the high intensity ones

I make at least one mistake on every job just to stay humble.

it radiates heat so it is a ray d ate er my dad used to call then rad like totally rad dude. i think it is a cultural area thing.

That vehicle is on the road to recovery an that's all that matters.

How much for that job? $2000?

Don't real VW's have lug bolts instead of the usual studs and lug nuts?

You usually make jobs look easy, not this one. Many gotchas.
