Is your cruise control erratic? I would definitely replace the speed sensor

Check TPS (THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR).Thanks me later

but of course !

@@golfghoul7 pulled bottom off 97 rav 4assembly 409 and compressed air until blew clear. Done 👏👏👏 Thanks for direction

@@Mr.SuperDuper-idk great ! glad to help.

yes it is possible, you do not need to take the,, the engine out, just the oil pan

99-2004 has a different set up but you can get on E Bay or Partsgeek cheaper

A couple years ago I had my front subframe replaced on my 08 Kia Rondo and the great shop I go to have my car work done changed it in 4 hrs and it cost $ 667 dollars for the labor. I bought the new subframe on line for $400 (shipping included) and had it mailed to the shop directly. When it arrived, they called me, and a couple days later I drove there and had it changed. My 08 has now 114, 500 miles on it and runs like a champ👏✊

Excellent idea, we had to replace that one because it leaked Freon

excellent, that will save you a few bruise knuckles

That price would be for a used engine if you could find one, reman with install would be closer to $7-9K

@@golfghoul7 Thank you very much for the info. That price is for both, engine and install?

Reman eng is between $4-5 K rest is labor and parts, when we did a reman all parts were replaced new, spark plugs, ignition wires, thermostat, water pump, belts, hoses, ect.@@porridge57

@@golfghoul7 Excellent…thanks again.

The V8 has 6, the V6 has 4

they do come off, must transfer them

Okay my subframe rusted out and was replaced and a bunch of suspension parts.. after I got my car back from the shop it started making a clunking noise in reverse. I went to get it looked at by a different shop because I wanted a different opinion and they told me that it was the en go be mounts that needed to be replaced and that they don’t come off when replacing subframe they just stay on. So that’s BS? And the guy that did my subframe should of told me I needed new mounts correct? Now I’m stuck with all new suspension/subframe and have to go back and get engine mounts done.. it feels like a scam and extra money spent when the job could of been done all at once.

@@juleezajohnson1440 of course it should have been done at the same time.

Oh but we do, I have a lot of customers who live in Palm Beach and others who live by the Intracoastal, lots of rust on those !

@@golfghoul7 I was referring to the "only need to replace if it's been in an accident" part lol I'm currently looking into what my options are after finding my subframe nearly rusted out. Pains of living in the northeast. >.<

@@TheBlackBeltPanda ah the Northeast cars, yes I agree, I rarely see one from "up there" that is not a rust bucket.

That is great time, we get a lot of "by the ocean" cars here so yes, rusty bolts is a time killer

R: this is so weird my son is watching car videos on RUclips shorts and I'm here at Grand Canyon hotel and I'm sitting down in my bed I'm just waiting for my older son to bring the popcorn for me and my little son my son's name is Rhino Roanoke rain Rhino cannot bring my iPad and my headphones because I'm already 43 years old and my son is 11 going on here this is weird😮

T: Tyler said he wasn't going outside because his whole entire head was red I brought him inside London and and the next morning Tyler couldn't get up cuz his legs and his arms was stiff he couldn't crack his bones because he wasn't drinking water enough and then he wasn't eating cheese and crackers and biscuits and I told Tyler he was okay 30 times and then he wasn't responding his tongue was sticking out his whole entire body was red I mean I was tearing up and crying and I was like what in the world is wrong with Tyler

U: I used to make a Mannequin out of umbrellas and then it came to life my son jumped up and ran to me he told me Dad Dad it's a mannequin out of umbrellas and I told him I said it's just a mannequin with umbrellas and when the sun was almost going down I think it was at 3:30 when we made a mannequin out of umbrellas I think we did I think it was a flashback

When we did this job we left the tranny in place

V: my son was talking about me using all of his basketball clothing and then he told me and my son's name is violin he almost pushed me down to the hard concrete floor and I almost dropped my black spider headphones I almost used my shoe on my son and I thought I was calm but my son is in bed sleep

where do you found it ? State ?

that is a smart way to do it, well done

So i am getting a car and the old k-frame rusted off, we are going to get a new one but how hard was it to get the old bolts out? the car a 2001 toyado camry

You have to remove it unfortunately, unless it leaked out already.

@@golfghoul7 Thank you. Yeah, I checked prices on the recovery equipment, ~$500 (machine, tank). Though still might sense to buy, if to learn how to apply all that to support you home AC in addition to automotive applications.

@@olenaerhardt7725 a couple of things: home air and car air use a different type of freon so careful on the recovery. If your evaporator is bad means the freon already leaked (?) if that is the case you do not need a recovery unit, only a vacuum pump once you do the install, the recharge you can do with a handheld freon recharge can you can buy at any auto part store

@@golfghoul7 Thank you, it is good to know. Why I mentioned home AC, bcs on Amazon they show a picture of Home AC on that Automotive Recharging Machine I'm thinking about. It is VEVOR Portable 3/4 HP Refrigerant Recovery Machine - AC Recovery Machine with High Pressure Protection 120V 60Hz Recovery Machine HVAC for Vapor Liquid Refrigerant, Car Air Conditioning. So if to learn how to do on both (auto and home) properly it make great sense to have this machine. Actually for the cars we have I feel I would need to buy it. About refrigerant in that car I'm working on currently, I don't know yet. I did a lot on it, but most suspension, and while the car is in the air I thought to replace the radiator I bought a while ago. Surprisingly the radiator looks very good, though I changed coolant in it only 1 year ago, I believe the only time on that car. And it is 2001 Saturn SL2 w/~135 kmi. But Condenser behind it looks worn. The condensers are cheep, but you need to disconnect the AC Lines. Then I've learned about the Evaporator. There was no heat in that car, never (we bought it used), but AC was working. When it stopped working I went to Chevrolet Dealership here in Dallas, and they repaired it for $1K w/Warranty for 1 year. Shortly before the expiration date AC went down again. When I went back one mechanic there wanted me to pay again, then he did smth, AC was working like for 1-2 weeks, then went down again. On my return, that mechanic was going like, what did you expect if you didn't pay for the repair I did. Despite all that I don't think he did smth to cause the system slow evaporation during his 2nd "repair" (needless to say AC failed again shortly). It is still dealership, and it is illegal to send the refrigerant in the air. We didn't worry much about that not working AC, bcs by then it was our back up car, but still it would be good to put everything possible in the order on that AC. But probably later, I need to do more research on car AC system, bcs now I even don't know how to diagnose car AC. I have that device w/Blue and Red barometers, but I've never used it. Then get equipment. So for right now I'll just replace the Heater Core and Radiator. Then get all the necessary equipment for freon (or whatever is there) removal and storage. Thank you kindly again for your film. It helped me to start on the project I've never did before. I might open the Evaporator location and just clean it outside, already will be better.

@@olenaerhardt7725 it sounds like you might have a freon leak, have you been able to determine where? If it is the evaporator you should do the evap & heater core together, they are close to each other in the evap case

I'm retired but what is going on with it?

@@golfghoul7 as i told i have 2010 honda reborn. Issue i am facing is rpm down when for a second car vibrate due to unstable rpm then it returns back when radiator fan is turn on idle either at tariffic or at singal. I have changed throtle body and check all other mechanical work including spark plug,coil, injectors evrything. No indication of any error on meter nothing. Couldnt recognize what is the main fault yet any one. Can u advise what fault it can be?

@@ahmedqadri7817 Have any modifications been done to the engine? If yes start there if not I would check the IDLE AIR CONTROL VALVE and the MASS AIR FLOW SENSOR

@@golfghoul7 Map censor is clean already also i changed the trottle body over all with old one. Still same issue. But some says its electrical fault others cannt recognize. Inside on meter there is no check light or else. Im also confuse what is the main problem. At night when head lights and all turned on auto radiator fans turn on the main lights dim for sec as the rpm goes down..

@@ahmedqadri7817 Based on the above have the alternator tested, not only for voltage but for amps too

Of COURSE, especially down here with all the cars that are parked oceanside in Palm Beach, ect. but when the client finds out the cost most just trade them in, at least in an accident the insurance company pays for most, if not all the cost.

2 things: either humidity, which I heard is rare out there or low freon

@@golfghoul7 Thanks

no way, shop around for a better price, labor should be between $700_$1000 fuel pump assemblies (there's two, should be about $300 each

couldn't agree with you more !

wow sorry, the Quest was just a poor design, trying to jam everything in a tight spot

those days of rebuilding engines is a lost art, literally cheaper to buy a used engine or a new shortblock

I saw him rebuild a diesel engine one time but I was too Young to remember & too hyper pay enough attention to what he was doing the only thing I can remember was him drop-in those Pistons and you're right it is a cheaper to get a used engine or a new short block but just something about getting a nice old truck or car like a 1990s model and just trying to keep it as original as possible and I guess it is a lost art there's nothing like the feel of an original old car or truck

indeed it is, they do not make em' like they used to

Mac, good points all but not everyone is mechanically inclined or has the tools to do a job like you did. Secondly, could you have done the K-frame job on my video at home?

@@golfghoul7 I have one craftsman 4 drawer carriable tool box that did the entire suspension on my car. One set of sockets, wrenches a breaker bar and some leverage bars. I've only had hand tools, jacks and stands, no power tools except I've used a hacksaw for rusted bolts, that's it. And yes, you can to the frame with hand tools as well, there are other videos I've seen people have done it on a PT cruiser. It's very possible and I make very quick work of it. I've got just over 222,000 miles on this Sebring. Past 8 years I've had a 2002 sable and this 2010 Sebring. Both reached 200k. It's very possible to do the work on a car without major shop equipment. Then charge someone such a price for knowledge just because that person isn't mechanically inclined. I'd rather see that person safe and on their way than take money from a family.

there are actually 6 cats

@@golfghoul7 thanks

much easier on a Honda

Did you need to discharge the AC System completely before this replacement? Thank you.

@@olenaerhardt7725yes. You will have to take it to the shop for them to discharge and recycle the Freon. I did this job on my Dodge Ram. The whole dash had to come out as well as the heater box.

@@airmike1271 I know already, but thank you. There was no freon in that car, it was totally empty. I removed a lot of stuff fm/the dash, but then decided to try just to flush the system and try it w/air pressure. That was bcs when I came to the Heater Core. It was like new, there was no need to replace it. The Heater didn't work, bcs the regulating cord was disconnected. I attached it and tried the system. It showed a leak on the compressor, which they installed at dealer. I've learned a lot during this time, but still don't know if you can discharge the system at home and then go w/that tank somewhere for recycling. They sell those tanks on Amazon, but no one knows where to go w/that tank after. Probably it is better not to reuse that freon (fm the tank), since it might be contaminated. Thank you again.

@@olenaerhardt7725 it is great that you are working on your car as you learn new things at the rewarding feeling you get when you repair an issue. You should be able to recycle your freon, which without a license and take it to a place that will take the gas. It is not recommended to try and use the gas as it might have other types of freon mixed in from any previous owners. To purchase refrigerant, you will have to have a license. But that is not a huge hurdle as you can study up and take a online test for I thing between 50-80 dollars. My dilemma, I bought a 2009 Eclipse with a family member as a Facebook Marketplace project. That a/c, I figured I would farm that work to a shop as I really did not want to get deep into that system. Doing that evaporator, heater core on my truck took weeks. I couldn’t just stick to the task as I rebuilt the whole heater box assembly with all new mode doors. So the Eclipse went to this shop that was building my trust to work on my vehicles. They had me convinced to replace the compressor, drier and had some kind of valve replaced. The car did some sitting and drove it to work Monday to find out the a/c is blowing hot. The shop still has the car. I am anticipating that it is going to be a bad evaporator. If that is the case, they should have discovered it and not taken me a ride. So once I get the verdict and it is the evaporator, they will be fired from the job and I will be, cough, doing it myself 😜

but...........we did

Toyota Previa van, you are right most vehicles need the dash & cluster removed to get at the evaporator

@@golfghoul7 thanks. Honda, subaru, accura seem to heave easiest access.

thanks, good job

have you tried taking it off with an impact gun? have you tried heating it with a torch? have you tried a torque wrench with a pipe attached to it?

@@golfghoul7 I have not done it with an impact pistol, the only thing I do is put the 19 dice together with the ratche and start the car but not even with that it comes out, so I ask on which side the screw is loosened

@@ruthhernandez7155 got to use an impact gun, 99% of those screws are righty tighty, lefty loosy

@@golfghoul7 ok and one last question, did you disassemble the nissan quest with the impact gun, the screw loosened for the left or right side?

?

@@golfghoul7 I’m a registered apprentice who is researching how to do my own work for a car that I want. I cannot find info on it anywhere, just mechanics telling you that it is expensive.

Not to mention that the flat rate for the car I’m doing is 3.5 hours not 10. And the part cost me $226 CAD. So..... also not too sure why you told people “a minimum of 10 hours”

yep its another tough Ford fit

it sure does
