For the DIY to save money, the purge valve could be repaired. I had a P0456 on the same Ford 2.5L engine: "Slow Leak". Removed valve. On the bench with pressure tester, I confirmed that, with no voltage applied, valve was not sealing when closed. I applied 12VDC to it and sprayed brake cleaner in it. Lots of carbon black dirt gunk came out. More spraying with WD-40 and brake cleaner and valve was clicking open and closed when I connected/disconnected the 12V power. cleaned it more, and more dark residue came out. I then let it dry. It was sealing again; confirmed with pressure tester. Installed it and it is working as it should.

Loads of stuff like this can be rebuilt & repaired by the DIY/home mechanic. I’ve rebuilt starters & alternators. It’s all stuff that garages won’t do because it takes too long & they prefer to replace parts rather than repair them. I can’t blame them, they’ve got their reasons, but a home mechanic isn’t on the clock & can often save money by doing these things themselves.

Just started this video and I'm slightly amused. I drive an 09 Escape LTD with very similar mileage. I started getting that gas cap code back in December and it confused the Hell out of me. Wound up being the purge solenoid. I've also had to replace both of the rear regulators twice. My compressor went out a couple of years ago. Other than that, it's been a very reliable vehicle.

The circumference is the distance around the outer edge of a circle. It's the length of the curved line that forms the circle's boundary. The perimeter refers to the total length of the boundary of any closed shape, including polygons, circles, or irregular figures. It represents the sum of all the sides or curves that enclose the shape. In simpler terms, the perimeter is the distance around the outside of a shape.

I always love valve cover gasket replacements. Something satisfying about having a clean engine with no further leaking oil. My PT project just expanded to the rear. New calipers, pads and rotors, new sway bar links and a set of shims to correct the camber that is not to specs. As well as camber adjustment bolts for the front. I'm determined to get the alignment as close as possible before it goes to final alignment. Hopefully that will be done and operational in a week or so after parts arrive and I can finally do my Kia Sportage valve cover gaskets, which leak slowly, right on the exhaust, giving a burning oil smell. I can't wait to do the valve cover gasket.😊

That center sensor is the head temp sensor. There's a TSB to seal that boot with some silicone due to water intrusion/corrosion on the connector causing a false overheat symptom that will send you down the rabbit hole due to it having a coolant temp sensor that votes between the two sensors. Look like they chance their oil every 5k min. looking at that valve train!

Never Seeze has another disadvantage in that it insulates the plug from the head and therefore gets too hot. My understanding is that all plugs are now plated with something that prevents them from seizing in the engine.

Hi Ray! I love your vids - great content and lots of fun to watch. I have a remark regarding never seize or lubricants on threads: if you use a torque wrench, you in fact do not over torque the spark plugs / bolts / nuts. The SAME and correct torque - caused by lubrication and reduced friction - will rather cause a significantly higher pulling forced being applied to the threads / bolt body / nut / whatsoever threaded mount. This pulling force then ends up ripping threads out or tearing apart bolts. Greetings from Germany... and before you might ask: YES I am an german engineer and NO - I do not work on cars for a living 😂

All maintenance done per factory recommendations, only used motorcraft oil & Wix filters - I replaced the plugs & struts at 200k. Next to my 5.9 Dodge, best little grocery getter I’ve ever owned. There was a recall for the fuel door filler and tube…

I would tend to believe there is a conversion factor to compensate for lubricated vs unlubricated torque values. There by allowing anti seize to do it's job without endangering the threads. Haven't seen a battery terminal cleaning in far too long. Enjoyable but disappointed the terminals didn't come off for a good post cleaning.

I always clean everything before I put it back together an the surface of the head but each to there own. As for spark plus an never cease well yes an no but I put it on the plugs. I also use it on my race car cause we change the plugs just about every pass being we run nitrous and check plugs every pass. Ray is good at what he does. I just think washing up or cleaning things before you put it back together is just taking pride in your work.

Glad to see you got a helper now Ray! Yeah it's real hard to do a one man show operation, when you're real busy with, diagnosing, maintaining, repairing, and stuff around your improved shop. His name is Troy, too, like the Helen of Troy movie! Maybe you could some of the clip as he single handedly do any car service from start to finish all by himself like you before. You make a good mentor to him, that's for sure!

Ray, Circumference is a special case of perimeter. Both describe the total length of the boundary of a two dimensional shape, but circumference specifically refers to the perimeter of a curved figure or arc. Therefore it only applies to circles, ovals, ellipses, arcs, etc.

If you buy a used Escape with a 4 cylinder, remove all the spark plugs and make sure they are the correct plugs. So many have the 6 cyl plugs in them. The engine will run fine with them, even though the V6 plug is much shorter. Low MPG (like 16mpg) is a good sign you got the V6 plugs.
