My uncle showed me a neat trick he bought 2 really long bolts with the same threads as the transmission bolts so he could just slide the transmission back to change the seal.

It also helps to keep the converter on the transmission during removal and installation.

My father made those at his shop in a huge copper mine in AZ. The head were removed, tapered and a nice slot to insert a flat head screwdriver to remove them once a few transmission bolts were loosely installed

When the vehicles are manufactured, the chassis is dipped in an electrocoat bath. This bath looks alot like water and the operator can adjust the current in the bath and this makes it so they can adjust exactly how much primer will be applied and since it is electrified, the primer will be distributed exactly even over the entire chassis which is nice. The problem comes when this electrocoat goes into the over directly after the electrocoat process and is supposed to be partially cured so the topcoat sticks to the primer. In this case, what happed was that the ecoat was overcured and thus there was a intercoat adhesion issue because the ecoat was overcured and not allowing the topcoat paint to stick to the primer. This has been an issue for many years. It started back in the 70's when ecoat was introduced. There you have it. It's not the water based paint at all! Also, for those that aren't aware, all paint used in the manufacturing process is a thermoset paint whereas it has to go thru an oven to cure. So it is not an air dry paint.

@inspectorjavert5563 3 күн бұрын

indeed. waterbase automotive paint is the standard now. solvent based topcoats are going the way of the dodo.

@ricka5471 3 күн бұрын

Also the uv rays will degradate the ecoat to topcoat adhesion and cause the topcoat to peel off. Most plants also sprayed too thin of a coat of white paint to allow the uv rays to come in.

Needs a decent etch primer before the top coat.

EVANS Waterless coolant is suppose to be safer for the engine. Which I quote from the website “Evans Waterless Coolant provides distinct advantages over traditional water-based coolant. The absence of water avoids the formation of vapor, high pressure and boil-over, and prevents corrosion and electrolysis. Evans’ high boiling point and lower freeze point allow a wider and safer operating temperature range. The benefits derived from Evans can be achieved in most vehicle applications and engine types, although Evans’ performance may vary depending on cooling system configurations.” Sounds interesting overall, I’d have to ask my Professor if he’d heard of it as he is ASE Certified and a Ford Master Tech. Hope this answers your question about it. Also, thank you for the videos you provide, they help me learn more about cars than what I have learned already. I’m 20 and about to head into the industry in the next year or two.

Evans coolant is very popular in UK for classic cars with border line cooling efficiency.

@bobpowers4454 3 күн бұрын

@@GaryH-pw9cm From what I have read, adding water eliminates the benefits of the Evans. You can add water in a pinch but they say that it shouldn't exceed 3% of the cooling capacity. But, you lose the benefits and now introduce a liquid that will lower its boiling point and introduce the possibility of pressurizing the system more than just have Evans alone.

Evans Waterless Coolant is a Jay Leno staple who uses in almost all of his cars. It is a permanent coolant for the life of the vehicle. Of course at prices from $33 to $75 a gallon, it had better be. The boiling point of the Evans is 375F opposed to 212F for water. Since the boiling temperature of the Evans is so high, your cooling system will not pressurize which is also (supposedly) another advantage of using the product. Cool!

@@TheSolidSnakeOil If you can get it to the boiling point (375f) it will explode in your face. I don't think you will be able to get the coolant temperature to that high of boiling point unless you disregard the temperature from the water (coolant) gauge and let the needle peg. There may be some pressure, but it should be much less than a water-based coolant. Regardless, you should not add water to the cooling system.

3500 Expresses also have 8-lug wheels and usually the 6.0L. We also have the peeling paint issue. These vehicles normally have the orange "OAT" coolant. It's really important to change the coolant at the specified interval or the entire cooling system will turn into Swiss cheese. Same with brake fluid. A "royal flush" might be a good idea here. Maintain your fluids guys or it *will* end in tears!

That would be carbon monoxide poisoning from exhaust leaks. As a paramedic, I saw two older vans with this problem. The human price was high on one of the calls: the van was on cruise control and had 12 people onboard. It went across the four lane’s center divide, hitting a semi. Of the 12, only the front occupants had belts on. It was a human Jackson Pollock. Figured the driver had fallen asleep, which he did. It wasn’t fatigue, though. Toxicology came back with CO poisoning. Better seals are there for a reason. Times change.

Rear main oil seals have always been a challenge. To my knowledge, when GM went to the 360 degree one in the 2.8 V-6 in the S-10 techs first experienced the challenge of them - do I pull the engine or trans; can I "sneak" it out without doing either? Great video showing how to get this particular van one. I was hoping there'd be enough room to get to it without pulling the trans completely. Looking forward to the follow-up videos on this. Thanks for the great cameo of Lauren/WifeUnit. She's as beautiful as ever. Ray, you're a lucky guy (hope you don't mind me saying). 😊

I went through 3 of these between 92 and 22...they were solid with almost no issues but you dump them at about 120K before the expensive stuff starts going. When I asked the Fleet manager as I ordered my last one on 2015 if the Paint issue had been fixed, he said ''I wouldn't bet on it!'' My 05 ''Shed'' all the white paint off in sheets! The 15 was looking good at 7 years so who knows. I just blasted the Bals spots with white Plasti-Dip and lived with it. The Express is still a great platform for a work truck.

Many states require annual (or biennial) safety inspection, Hawaii is no different. The inspection decal is placed on the bumper, but you can buy a bracket to keep the decal off the paint. Members of the military stationed in Hawaii have the option of NOT getting Hawaii license plates, however you still need to register the vehicle and place a massive decal (5"x6" maybe) on your bumper to indicate it's been registered. Pro tip: Rental vehicle break ins are very common in Hawaii...new residents are advised to quickly "personalize" their vehicle with decals to prevent it from looking like a rental (Jeeps for example).
