This episode will be saved in my favorites and forever known as "Don't Tell Mom". I'm super glad Sean wasn't hurt but the conversation it sparked had us doubled over in laughter. (Probably because we've all been there.) You can't buy entertainment of this caliber.

This one’s for Ben, there’s two kind of guys that wire up their cars, ones that had fires and those that haven’t. I’m like you know, I use fuses and relays, and battery and alternator disconnects. Wire gets hot real fast, hahaha.

Love the channel! Old trick to pull a snowmobile clutch without a puller is to remove the bolt, tip the sled on the side, pour a few ounces of water into the bolt hole and then reinstall the bolt. The bolt will bottom out against the water and pop the clutch off. Remove the bolt, tip the back down and the water drains out. Clutch removed. I bet it would work on the side-by-side. Cheers!

That clip of the jeep starting in gear is exactly why I spent the extra time to wire the neutral safety switch in my YJ lol. It's a 302 swap with a b&m sport shifter. I sat there thinking it is useless to wire it up since I would never start it in gear. I count 6 times now that I have went to start it in gear and the neutral safety switch has saved me from that exact situation.

13:38 Ever since as a kid doing visiting car washes with my pal for pocket money, and nearly totaling one of the cars into a garage door, pressing or pulling something we ought not have, that started the car - stick shift so parked in gear, handbrake off:- for the last 50-odd years I've always made it a point to check the gear stick for neutral, have one foot covering the brake, the other covering the clutch, whenever I start up any vehicle. My girlfriend's grandfather the classic very English - English 'Colonel Blimp' type character, took off once starting in a Mini Cooper, right through the wooden garage doors, only got stopped by the workbench and vice at the back, or he'd have gone into the river out the back! Really surprisingly quick getaway in those old Minis. 🤪

The compression tester should have the core valve installed so that the compression builds during the test not just bounce back and forth, if the tool was sued correctly it would show that there is no big issues like that. Just so you know for next time.

@bullittdog4352 11 ай бұрын

The compression leak was the tester itself, the valve was dumping the psi after every compression stroke ..usually takes three complete cycles to represent actual compression psi. A bit of lite oil down the spark plug holes promotes sealing also.

I had something similar happen to me, back in about 1979, out in Tulsa, in the dead of winter. Same thing, though I don't remember now what the issue was. Fortunately, traffic was light, and I manged to get that heavy beast (F100 step side long bed) pushed to the curb. Luckily, it was in front of a coffee shop that served free coffee to people who were out of work. Don't know how many hours it took me, having to stop ever 20 minutes or so to go warm up my hands, but it took a while. Eventually, I got it fixed and was on my way.

Paul needs a Florida wardrobe. Cutoffs, flipflops/sandals with the airy light colored button shirt optional and don't forget the wide brimmed hat. We had a reprieve today with effective temps down to 114 while Tuesdays effective temps were close to 120 and there have been daily heat advisories. Sweat can't evaporate when its like this so you need to dress for it so you don't stew to death. Best!

@madrew2003 11 ай бұрын

The most accurate way to compression test is with the throttle wide open. If you don't do that the readings are suspect because the throttle isn't allowing max air in. It's "throttling". lol

@darrinstone49 11 ай бұрын

Oh I like that advice, only say one thing you want to accomplish & be done! I need to do that! I use to list out everything I want to get done & divide it in HALF, then take into account how many times I get interrupted & the heat... so divide that in half & Pray everything goes smoothly. Yup some days I don't get much accomplished. LoL

Watching Sean compression test. Holey piston Batman! You're brutal on equipment Hunter. 😮 Stabil in the gas, Sean prevents the gas from turning into gum. Modern gas with ethanol does that real quick. The weedwhacker and chain saw I've bought the last couple of years had tags on the gas filler neck saying warranty is void if Stabil is not used. It won't work forever, but it'll give you at least a year.

Leak down test : Put cylinder at top dead center , then add air through spark plug . Should have minimal leakage . Under 10%. Listen for air leakage out through carb = intake valve leak . Out exhaust = Exhaust balve leak. Out oil fill cap = Leaking past rings . Bubbles in radiator = Head gasket / cracked head .

Always check to make sure that the vehicle is out of gear before cranking. Story time with Spaceman: I got pulled over on my Hell-Cycle one night. The lady cop said that my headlight wasn't on. I said, "bull-snot! The headlight comes on when I turn the key and crank her." I reached over and turned the key. SAVANNAH (my Hell-Cycle) cranked right up, headlight came on, but she was in gear and took off straight for the cop who was standing in from of the trike. I dove in front and knocked the cop out of the way. Then the other cops that were there wanted to arrest me for assault on an officer. I told the lady cop, "But I saved your life. That trike could've killed you if I didn't jump in." After checking with the owner of the bushes that stopped the trike. He didn't want to press charges and the lady cop said, "Just let him go with a warning." So always check to make sure that the vehicle is out of gear before cranking. This has been story time with Spaceman.
