Found it! Lisle Spark Tester - amzn.to/3uGuWYF Unofficial Chrysler lock ring pliers - amzn.to/3c2BoTj

The blurring out part made me laugh!

The pixelated cat 'correction' was a mini-stroke of genius.

The “Andrew Camarata easy access dah panel”😂😂😂😂

Loved the blurred shot

LOL!! The blur of the cat cracked me up!

He's not asleep - he's making sure that suspicious-looking tree doesn't jump ya' while you're working.

These videos are worth it for the commentary alone. Wes is one of the most entertaining people I’ve ever come across. His running commentary makes these Must See, if only to hear what he’s going to say next.

Props to Mrs. Wes for being able to steer that monster in! I work at a Dodge dealer and we have grown men that can't turn the steering wheel on those trucks when they don't run.

In my experience as summer help on farms back in the 60s, that 30° + steering slop tends to equal out when you hook up two overloaded bale wagons and pull them down the highway while attempting to beat the rain. Because the brakes are always at least twice as sketchy as the steering, one quickly learns to plan any stops and turns at least a mile ahead IF the U-joints will take survival downshifting!

A Mrs Wes appearance, woooooo!!! Effortlessly fashionable and obviously incognito, avoiding the relentless paparazzi and her legions of adoring fans...

You and south main are my favorite two guys to watch. You are both real mechanics not just parts exchangers.

Nice work, Wes! Love hearing the big V10 roar back to life 👌😁

I have a pair of blinders I wear when working on things like this. lol

Those tanks are even more fun, on your back, in a driveway, in winter, in Ontario when one strap nut comes off and the other stud comes out with the nut.

I just love these rust buckets! Please don't ever stop showing them. Plenty of LOLs here, especially when you illustrated how this customer prioritizes air conditioning...

Watch Wes ream a catalytic converter. Those Illinois safety inspections are worth their weight in rust.

“If you see this one coming, you might wanna give it a wide berth” 😂😂😂

I enjoy watching Wes’ approach to isolating the problem. He knew intuitively it was the pump, but made sure to check the easy failure points before dropping the tank and realizing the pump was OK.

I know you mechanics don't like working on rusty old vehicles, but I appreciate these videos! I am not rich, so these are the kind of vehicles I own and work on. These videos are very helpful to me being able to see how and experienced mechanic deals with rust making everything difficult.

Andrew camarata easy access dash 😂 (fairly certain I spelled his last name wrong)

She's ready to get back chasing tornadoes. (I know the truck in the movie Twister was a all red 1995 Dodge 2500)

As a kid that drives a clapped 90's GM ex-plow truck in similar shape(my first truck), I appreciate you taking the time and effort to work on these clunkers. Gives me some hope that repairs can be made and it's not a lost cause.

Love seeing you work on these old rusty trucks. What a messed up old truck

Excellent my man , your work is finished here and Max is letting his hair blow back living the dream .

Great call on the parasitic draw, My super duty had the exact same culprit. Seat belt timer module.

You and Eric O are my go to for automotive entertainment

I just love watching professionals do their job

I'd have been here sooner, but I was watching Diesel Creek. 😁

I gotta tell you Wes - I always enjoy your videos and I always learn something useful from them.

Great job Wes - typical crusty Chrysler…..gotta love Illinois. “One of our less eventful towing experiences…..hehehehehehehe

Pull a Derek from VGG, "I'm just going to pretend I didn't see that"

“Pretty rough” You haven’t seen the 2nd gen market lately have you XD

Finally....after all these years....the special language that helps release the connector....10:54....Wes is real!!

Dodge...for when you want a vehicle to look cool in for five years, but made to last 3. We had an old 1977 F-150 in West Virginia. Working a cattle farm and driving when you are 14 was awesome. We loaded that truck down with hay, cattle feed, corn and salt bricks. Sometimes a dead heifer. It had a headache rack in the back that came off a tank. Big winch to pull stuff up. Everyday up and down the mountain, through a creek. That truck was a beast. Then we got an 84 Ram 1500 in 88. That thing broke all the time. Traded it for a Toyota Tundra. That truck still runs on that farm. If you ever eaten a Smashburger, that's where the meat comes from.

Big smile when you blurred the cat work! You have a great sense of humor.

If he ever gets into an accident with that truck it is going to fold up like cardboard. Great job fixing the truck Wes!

Always welcome ol Wes,makes things interesting.

I live in the Illinois suburbs and boy let me tell you it sounds nice being that far from the city. In my town plate tags are $151 and another $50 village sticker JUST TO PARK ON THE STREET! On top of emissions every 2 years. Illinois is insane I swear. Great video as always though, Wes!

I really learn a lot watching your videos. Most importantly that nearly anything can be fixed if you are willing.

"This thing is all over the road." Must be his first time running a second gen. Hahahah. Love the channel. Keep it up

I love that blacked-out area when you had to alter the catalytic converter flow rate. That was pricless!! Doing a great great job. All the best from Canada

I was just battling a half full gas tank last weekend and you’re not kidding about how once it starts to tip it’s going to go. Even worse when balanced on a floor jack with a piece of wood on it 🙂

Happy Saturday! Thank you for taking us along on another job!

Guessed fuel pump from the beginning.ive owned one since 2001 and worked on several.the motors are pretty simple and reliable.the fuel pumps only seem to last a couple years anymore.

I really love your you tube videos & Mrs Wes is awesome! What a joy watching a coherent, honest-to-goodness repair of an over worked work truck. Great diagnostics and repair. You just added a least four more years to that trucks life. They must not use barbed wire on that farm because I’m surprised you didn’t see any holding some part of it together.

Really enjoyable video. I love to see you and your wife interact and hear you talking to yourself!

The EPA part made the video. Then the blur omg love it

Saturday mornings with Wes!! Perfect! Absolutely love your laugh!!

31:25 "We must give this American a wide berth" "Let us turn south; Mr. Komarov, plot a new course due south"

Why did they start putting the fuel pump in the gas tank? Once I helped a friend work on his 1955 truck. Opened the hood, we each sat on a fender with our feet inside the engine compartment which was roomy enough to stash a dead body for weeks. Tool box sitting on the fender. Beers sitting next to us. We both took out valve cover bolts and proceeded to adjust the valves, change the points, new plugs. etc. Much improved the engine performance. We test drove it by chasing the chickens and dogs around the yard. Then we put it back in the barn before we got too drunk. The old farmer next door(1/2 mile) came over and asked us to help him tomorrow morning castrate his pigs. Turned out our job was to just hold them. He used a pocket knife and his wife's needle and thread. After all were done he held out a big hand full of the bloody glands and said, "You boys want to stay for breakfast." We turned him down and by that afternoon we were regretting that decision. When would that chance ever come again? And besides, we already knew his wife was a great cook.

In the process of doing a '94 Ford Ranger 4.0L. When through the very same checks to ascertain my pump was bad. Good video. Thanks.

Nicely done. I will say a heat gun on the fuel hoses instantly softens them and they pop off like new. Also the price of catalytic converters these days, he probably has $400 in cat material left in there.

I see “Hufflepuff Towing Services” t-shirts in the merch store soon!

I really like watching your diagnostics work. In my opinion, that's the real difference between a shade tree mechanic (like myself) and a professional.

My nephew called me up to help him change his tank . I got over there and he had cut every tube, hose, and even the filler cap. Also cut the strap in half. Being a cheap car we did a lot of rigging. I also drilled two holes in the tank strap and put a gate tensioner on it. Hey it worked.

Always The Highlight of My Saturday Morning, Your Sense of Humor is Great, I Can’t Help But Laugh. Another Great One. Happy Memorial Day to You and Huffelpuff Towing Srvc. :) Keep It Safe Sir.

i had a mint one of these trucks a few years back only had 30kmiles on it but was a barn find had same issue crank but no start for me it was the ecm

Hi from England, my Tshirt has arrived and its smashing, thank you Mr and Mrs Wes .

Wes trying to stop himself from complaining is pure gold. When a mechanic stops complaining something is about to go very, very, wrong. Or they have to tell a good customer that a beloved vehicle is headed for the big scrap yard in the sky.

Thanks for the video, I drove a dodge farm truck from a field to a guys yard for him about 12 years ago. Man the steering wheel felt like it was connected to the box with a tarp strap it handled so bad. I kinda hinted it maybe needed steering/suspension component work. About 2 weeks later the guy had a new truck. Apparently he took it into a shop to get fixed and they told him go buy a new truck it would be cheaper. over the years I've driven others trucks, it becomes apparent some people get used to things like steering/suspension as it progressively wears. If you want to know how bad it really is get somebody else to drive it and they'll tell you. Take care.

The Andrew Camarata dash mods seem to be popular. I think he has 2 versions, the chainsaw and the pry bar. I couldn't tell which you had there. :-) As always, great vid. Always a bonus to see Mrs Wes and Max the pup too.

Saturdays are better with your videos thanks. Watching from PuertoRico.

Wes, I like your style! I learn something every video. And that's saying something because I have been fixing and building cars since the early 70's. Thank you, and thanks to the Mrs. it is nice how she helps when needed, well, when available.

You got a like for mentioning Andrew Camarata

I have a battery cutoff switch for my truck that has nothing wrong with it except a computer designed by the manufacturer to slowly drain the battery over a couple months. When I leave town for extended periods I use the cutoff switch so that when I get back in town a dead battery will not strand me at airport long term parking. On the other hand my 1985 no computer truck can sit for a year and still crank right up like it was just running yesterday.

I know this video is old but you have just saved me I've had a parasitic draw on my old trucks battery for years you are one smart man thank you

Wes really is the best mechanic on youtube I learn so much just watching

Giving her a sniff of brake cleaner - always does the trick! lol Smelling salts for engines!

that dodge sure looks like andrew camarata's truck

Watching this video makes me happy, that we have once a year safety inspections on our vehicles here in Pennsylvania , Great video Wes ,thank you

My mind said lift pump problem when I first seen it but you did a great job diagnosing the problem. Just seems like I have changed a ton of them. On that truck I would cut a hole in bed floor and pull pump saving some labor. I have done that on a few old ones. Last one was a old Ford van. Took me less than an hour whole job. Even used the piece I cut out to fill hole.

28:00 Did this just became X rated?

Reminiscent of Marvin the Paranoid Android listening to your commentary :)

Like most farmers this guy wants to drive it into the ground. The question is how far into the ground can he drive it! With Wes on his side he's heading for the center of the earth. Cheers.

This is awesome, I have a 96 2500 v10 with the same parasitic draw. Helps points a feller in a direction to find it.

Look man, I aint fallin for no banana in my tailpipe! 😂 thanks for the memory

Down here in Alabama we have the same emissions the first thing they do is cut off all the missions and straight piped out the back and they honest-to-goodness think it gives them more power I know because I've asked them I'm not talking just about older cars they do it's a new one two you can literally hear them from miles away LOL

I just brought home a Jeep a few days ago because my daughter wanted one and the exhaust was broken and holy crap loud out of that little 4 cylinder. You would love it the o2 sensor bung is filled with weld. I sent you a few stickers.

It can really complicate my Saturday to have BOTH a Wes and a Diesel Creek to watch.

Anyone else want to see more of the AC repairs?

Yeah DELPHI, that's pretty much a swear word................ Had to replace many of their epic fails. Thanks for the Vid Wes.

I live in central Wisconsin, this is the epitome of every truck 15 years or older out here.

Wes videos are the only videos I watch without skipping a second of the video. :D Quality content i'd say!

damn that's a nice dodge

Damn, recently Im starting to really like the looks of the Rams, they are very uncommon sight here

As always I look forward to your videos Wess. I just finished watching Jonathan w's video on his sawmill build. Like yourself I learned by watching and I've learned a lot from watching you especially with basic diagnosis which is my Achilles heel. Thank you for all the hard work

The blurring of the cat's was epic. So funny.

Hufflepuff towing service. That's not a great name for a shirt I don't know what is.

we love huffle puff, please don't 'dis' the huffle puff :-)

helper with attitude ......priceless

I know these trucks with the back of my hand and figured I would pass some knowledge to you (you may already know). Chrysler used the same fuel pump for the 26 and 34 gallon tank just not the 35 which I find weird. 35 was the least common tank (only long beds got them). Finally Chrysler realized how dumb the seatbelt module was and got rid of it in 2000. Bonus knowledge: Chrysler changed communicate system 3 times (CCD, PCI and some had CAN) in these trucks in the 2000-02 (2500/3500). Keep up the commentary! That's why I like watching you and Eric O!!!

Hey AC is important on a farm truck.

Any way you look at it, it's still a dodge!

That shout out to Andy... Love it!!

The blurring of the converter was priceless and give’er the beans to blow it out. Back in the day those are the first thing to remove.

Every Dodge truck I've ever owned has had a electrical issues and transmission issues.

Great fix as always Wes. Can those death traps be taken out of state? If its legal in illinois is it legal everywhere else. Kind of glad that here in the UK we have annual safety checks, that Dodge would be weighed in for scrap by now over here!

Hi Wes, enjoyed this one as usual. I ran a repair garage (shop in USA) solo for many years it is not easy but could manage most things, however, brake bleeding was difficult without a helper (even with a Lockheed pressure bleeder). Always look forward to your next video. Stu, UK.

Thank God you took care of that converter, it was driving me crazy.
