Добавлен 16 авг 2020
Welcome to our channel! This is a channel dedicated to those who have a passion for repairing things on their own. There is nothing more satisfying than having discovered the root cause of a problem and making it go away OR finding a better way of doing something. We will do our best to share those things we have done wrong (so you don't have to do them) and ways which might help you make an informed decision or save you time and money. We aren't experts...just a group of men from a family with a long history of saving our families a bunch of money by learning and doing it on our own. Our videos vary in length, but lean more towards the "longer side" of the timescale. Our intent isn't to just show the "perfect" remove/replace or modification/repair. We want to share the good and the bad of what we experience including observations and thoughts concerning the project. For your safety, make sure you are absolutely capable of working on and performing any of the tasks shown. Cheers!
2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee - Cabin Blower Moving Air Slowly
We had our Cherokee barely moving any air out of the vents. This was extremely frustrating and annoying especially when we wanted to go anywhere during the hotter times of the day! Watch this video for the root cause and a tip for how you can easily check to see if you have the same problem. Enjoy!

2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee - Wheel Hubs - Don't Use That Impact!
Просмотров 210Месяц назад
A quick warning to those of you tempted to use an impact driver to put that center wheel hub assembly nut back on. Don't do it! Spend the money and get a torque wrench and save yourself the time and money it may cost you by not using the correct tool to begin with. Lesson learned for Dutch! How can we make our videos better?

HVAC Filter Drier - Adding One Into The System
Hey bud good video. More info than what most of us expect but that’s never ever a bad thing bcs you’ll never know what’s important and what’s not until you cross that line. Not all front main seals can be slid too far. Some will have a set to brace the front seal in so that’s good to know bcs I’m on my first k build. Into a 98 DC2 and it looks like I can do this with the motor already in.
Great video, very detailed
Should of painted the wood white, it would of looked nicer and maybe more water-proof! 😀
Nice explanation, do you still recommend this system?
Thank you and yes I do. I plan to install an identical one with a small addition on my next one which will be filtering well water. -Dutch
Looks like the CV axles weren't long for the world either...Lol. the boot in the last couple minutes of the video looks ready to pop wide open. I'm wondering if you had to replace those since you made the video. I found a few suspension things ready to replace already on our 2018 Outlander the other day. 😞
We didn't have any problems with the cv axle boots up until it was sold about a year ago. Keen eye though! I appreciate the observation and wish you the best with your upcoming car projects. -Dutch
Thank you I'm going to pull off the freeway and try that right now
Spider gears
Brother, thank you! Just had this issue with my 2017 wrangler and, like you said, cables were tight but terminal was loose on the post! Went and fixed it right after the video and I’m back in action. God bless you and yours! Hope you have an awesome day! Here’s a jeep wave from TN 👋!
Awesome to hear my friend! So glad it helped you out. 🙂 -Dutch
Awesome video most people forget about the simple things! I was always taught stupidest things first before you spend unnecessary money and this video was gold! All I had to do was take a fly screwdriver and a little mallet and tap lightly to see it properly on top of the post and it smell perfectly. Thanks for the great video.
Thank you! Glad the video was helpful. -Dutch
Thanks for video! Mine was loose bc previous owner had put negative winch terminal over this so there was no longer a tightening action happening. I was able to take the sliding tab off and put the negative winch terminal under it. Now it tightens perfectly!
I am super happy it was able to help you out! -Dutch

You are welcome! Glad the video helped. -Dutch
This is pretty much the exact problem I am experiencing. Nate and I swapped out the old intake manifold, throttle body and injectors on my 04 base 5 speed rsx, and at startup it went WAY up in the rev band, like 5000, then settled down to an idle search between 1400 and 2500 rpms. I will try covering the iacv port tomorrow and see if that's the issue, which I'm pretty confident it is. I've got a 5 point star set coming in the mail so I'll just swap out the IACV with the old one which was working just fine. Very informative video!!! Thank you so much for showing us how to fix our cars!!! I subscribed to your channel, and I'll tell my tuner about you guys.
Thank you for watching the video and for the kind words! I hope this corrects your problem. Feel free to let me know. -Dutch
@@dutchmenmodsandrepairs1427 okay, so I replaced the old IACV that I believed to not be working with the one that was working just fine with my old setup with the k20a3 manifold, it started up like it used to, then after about two minutes started the idle search between 1200 and 2400 rpms. I am at a loss. I have kpro, so I'm going to investigate a bit into what I could do with that. Maybe run a civic SI base map on kmanager... I dunno.
Ok so I’m a bit of an idiot. My air temperature sensor is not plugged in. I have an extension cable coming so I’ll report back as soon as I get everything sorted.
@@davidwolf4267 I would be careful with changing anything in KPRO. Keep it simple. You replaced a number of components that can all have impacts to correct idling because of vacuum leaks. I would go back to each of those items and make sure you don't have any vacuum leaks. If you don't have a smoke machine, sometimes you can use an incense stick or something else that has a steady stream of light smoke. Move it around connection points or potential leak points and see if the smoke gets pulled into an area. If it does, you have found a leak. Remember that hunting is being caused 9 out of 10 times by a lean condition. There is extra air/oxygen being introduced into the combustion process that the computer is not calculating for. So the engine will hunt from too much fuel being called for to too little. Always go back to "what did I do last." -Dutch
@@davidwolf4267 no worried my firiend! We all make these mistakes. I have had more than enough for sure, but that is also how we learn! Keep me posted! -Dutch
Great video.
Thank you! -Dutch
I have the same problem , I took of the TB and saw some light passing thru , not much but it’s there. I’m going to replace the TB. Is there any aftermarket TB you recommend or should I just look for an OEM TB ? Thanks in advance
Hi there! Thank you for watching the video and hopefully this will indeed help you fix your problem. We actually just looked on ebay for a seller with a high rating and purchased from them. -Dutch
Hey mate where did you place the jack on the front
The floor jack we had for this is very narrow so we were able to work it in under the lower control arm and jack up each side and then place a jack stand.
I would have put anti seize on the axle spline as well. Those splines have a tendency to seize up.
Not a bad idea at all. Thank you for the feedback! -Dutch
Thanks man
You are welcome! -Dutch
I always use SB8 whenever possible, especially on new installs. I have been using it for years and to date have never had a failure.
Good information to hear! Thank you for sharing. -Dutch
I forgot to put the outer seal (near the wheel hub) back on. Am i good to go or?
I think you are talking about the thin metal piece? I am not 100% sure of its function. My uneducated guess would be that you are probably okay for the short term, but I would make plans to put it back on as soon as you possibly can....just to be safe and have all original parts back in place. -Dutch
The 10mm socket the most elusive tool in the tool box.😂
How true!
Thanks
Solid vid!
Thank you!
ok, so a few observations: 1. did you use a standard plumbing elbow, or was this a copper refrigerant elbow? 2. you do realize that that this level of heat applied to the elbow effectively anneals the copper elbow, resulting in it becoming very soft, correct? 3. even though you were able to completely deform the elbow without an obvious break in the the SB8 solder, you are not providing any evidence in the form of a pressure test that the solder joint did not, in fact, fail. just because the elbow did not turn does not mean that the joint did not fail. 4. solder of any kind will not build thickness like braze will, so unless the fittings are snug to begin with, solder should not be used.
Hello and thank you for your thoughts. The video's purpose was strictly to show the binding strength of SB8. I will disagree with you on one point and that is your thickness point. Thickness in brazing does not also mean pressure confirmation or strength. Both means of joining require a pressure test and I believe I even mention that in the video (maybe the long video is where I state that). I do appreciate your observations and in taking the time to share things that should be considered in these types of joining. Cheers! -Dutch
We’re did y’all get the stones from
From a local landscaping supply business.
This saved me a big headache! Thank you!
Glad it helped you out! -Dutch
THank you Sir. This is one of the best tutorials that I have ever seen . You went straight to the point. We appreciate you.
Thank you for the kind words and for watching the video. Glad it helped you out! -Dutch
Very helpful. Thanks!!!!
There are two different bulbs in the 2012 grand Cherokee. The 3157 is the big top one. That was working for me. It was the bottom one that was not
Thank you for some additional information. By chance do you have that bulb part#? -Dutch
Great video , I’m actually going through the hissing sound myself so I appreciate this , I’m hoping it’s the same leak issue & not the evaporator coil , did the hissing sound stopped once you replaced the condenser ?
Hello! Thank you for watching the video and for the compliment. Yes, once I replaced the condenser and recharged the hissing sound went away. And it has not come back (fingers crossed!). Let me know how it goes! -Dutch
Can you use this on plumbing as well, like for a water heater connection?
Hello! My initial guess would that it could. I believe Staybrite solder is lead-free (which is what you want for water lines) and household water pressure is significantly less than refrigerant systems. I would do some research before diving in feet first. Google "Stay-Brite8 soldering copper water lines." See if that can get you started. Good luck! -Dutch
Sure you can, but a "kit" i.e. - 1 lb roll of Stay-brite #8 and the flux for it, will set you back about $100.
5:09 That's the part number for the STP replacement, I just bought one at AutoZone
Thanks. Important to clean those when they get loose. Just helped someone with a loose positive and couldn’t tell how it worked without taking it apart. Going to have them pop by and clean and tighten it and this was the ticket!
Awesome job! -Dutch
Great video… how long takes you to do the job and how much you pay for the new one.
Hello! The job would probably take about 2-3 hours (or less if you have all the tools in place and you are proficient at using them). The replacement part cost about $100. -Dutch
Was the code p0505 and did u get the part off autozone or advance?
Hello, I believe the code was P0505 (that was awhile back). We got the part from Advance Auto. Good luck! -Dutch
Well I’m about to try and build the same as you, keep you posted Sir Dutchmen
Good luck and definitely let me know how it goes. -Dutch
Would you do this in an area with heavy winters ?
Great question! I can't say 100% for sure if I would or wouldn't basically because I am not super familiar with how the overall cold climate would impact things. I would take into consideration mostly how much ice melt and refreeze or rain and freeze would impact the rocks. If there is good flow and ground absorption for runoff then I'd think you'd be okay. -Dutch
Great video. My issue was that I had the red and green corrosion preventers on the terminals and that was enough to raise the bracket and cause the issue. I removed them and they tightened right up. Thank you!!
Glad you discovered your root cause! To help with the corrosion you can use dielectric grease, but just a light coating. Or you can try the red spray stuff (I forget the name), but it can end up over a wide area because of it spraying out. Thanks for watching and for sharing what you found! -Dutch
surgery was a success but the patient didn't make it. either way can be done wrong that's for sure. i'll give the solder a go
Good luck! -Dutch
@@dutchmenmodsandrepairs1427 I didn't realize solder was given such a bad name. Elitist brazing folks didn't know cherry red on the pipe may not be so good, hurting a txv or valve is no bueno. Or burning right through.
Hello, How much total gravel did you use, and where did you purchase it?
Hello! I believe we ended up getting just a tad over 1 cubic yard of the #57 washed granite and then my wife got another 1/2 cubic yard of #89 limestone for some decorative fill to match what we would do on our hardscaping around the hot tub. We got the stone from a local landscaping supply company. Hope this information helps! -Dutch
WAS FLUX USED, ANY CLEANER, ONLY SANDING?? MINE FLOWS LIKE WATER (TOO HOT?) AFTER REPEATED TRIES JOINT WORKED APART WITH MY HANDS THE SOLDER WAS ONLY AROUND THE EDGES ( THE FITTING WAS VERY TIGHT)? REMEDY??
Hello! I used scotch brite pads to brush up both sides of the pipe and then cleaned with 100% isopropyl alcohol. Added flux, pushed together and hit with heat and then solder to flow in. Also, make sure you do not use too much flux. Just a light brushing of it to both surfaces. If you use to much, it is possible you'll flow your solder right through the joint and have little bonding. -Dutch
@@dutchmenmodsandrepairs1427 THANK YOU FOR YOUR PROMPT , DETAILED REPLY !!!!
You probably roasted the flux out of the joint by getting it far too hot.
What are you using. Staybrite #8 with stay flux acid? Other than that your gonna have alot of issues. 😅. And he also used to much heat. Should also only use the length of solder equivalent to the size of pipe your soldering together. So 3/8 liquid line joint only needs 3/8 inches of solder to fill said joint. Try a good map gas torch with the yellow map gas bottle. More than enough heat to do the job. 😅
@@zackaryhall1271 appreciate the feedback. This was my first attempt soldering. Totally agree with you input! -Dutch
It’s so much easier. Brazing has its place, but for residential systems, SB8 all the way. I’m a DIY’er with properties and use SB8 on all my systems.
Couldn't agree more! Thanks for watching and for the feedback. -Dutch
I lost mine, not sure the number now...
Hi there and thank you for watching the video. If you know the tonnage of your evaporator, you can typically look up a chart that will give you a range of orifice sizes that will work for that rating. Don't quote me on that, but I believe I have seen something like that online. Best of luck! -Dutch
My jeep is making the same sound
If that is an exact sound you are hearing, then the ac system is low on freon. If you have a leak, you'll be back to hearing that sound in the future if you only add freon to the system. Finding the leak will need to be a project in your not too distant future, unfortunately.
@dutchmenmodsandrepairs1427 I took it to jiffy lube they did a leak test before refill. Glad it passed the leak test.
@@Rydrdg good to hear you just needed a top off on Freon! That is a win!!
@dutchmenmodsandrepairs1427 I spoke too soon. The hissing noise is back, and now it's just hot air blowing. I checked the vent gears, and it's not broken. I hope it's not the compressor....
@@Rydrdg it really sounds like you have a leak. I know Jiffy Lube did a leak test, but honestly that isn't exactly the place I'd go for a systems check (done that before). My other thought is also that unless it is the compressor that is leaking, it isn't the problem e.g. not working correctly. You had the hissing sound and luke warm air. Jiffy Lube topped it off and everything worked fine for awhile until the hissing sound returned with even hotter air blowing. This would tell me there is a leak. Now comes the challenging part in finding out where it is leaking. There are UV top off kits that you can use to put freon and a UV dye into your system and then use either UV dye glasses or a special pen (they should come with the kit) to locate where the leak is. I have a video in my Cherokee AC playlist where I show the results of putting the dye in my system and finding my root problem leak. Best of luck in getting this figured out before it gets much hotter out there. -Dutch
way to much flux
I would agree. First time doing it, so I will cut myself some slack. Appreciate you watching the video. -Dutch
How did you know the button was bad? What was the car doing to let you know to replace the button?
Hello and thank you for watching the video. When we purchased the car the button was missing. The previous owner told us he went in the store one day, came back out and when he pushed the button the car didn't attempt to start at all. If you can remote start the car that will tell you the button is bad. If you can't use your FOB to unlock doors or anything like that, then it is likely your FOB needs a new battery. The other option is to pop the button out (if that is possible) and use the FOB key to start the car (again if that is an option). I hope some of this information helps you out. -Dutch
@@dutchmenmodsandrepairs1427 Thank you for this information. I continue to have issues with my car starting. It says wrong key, or will start and then die, I have a light flash in the dash (part of the security module). I have replaced the batteries in both key fobs recently, and that hasn't fixed the issue. Truthfully was wondering if it was the win module going back in the car. Then yesterday it wouldn't start, saying wrong key when I pushed the button and then it wouldn't shut off using the push button. So I popped the button out and put my fob in and the car started right up. So this is what has led me to do more research and was wondering if the push button is bad. A much cheaper fix if this is the case. This is why I was asking how to know if the button is bad. I will give the remote start a try as well. Any additional information you can provide would be great. Thank you :)
@@mistymetzger3909 if you can start the car no problems with the button out and using the "emergency key" start, then you can lean pretty heavily in the direction that the button is not working. The car still reads the FOB even when using the key. That is the security side of starting the car. The button is literally a "dumb device" with no circuitry in it. It's job is just to make it easier to "turn the key on." I hope this helps! -Dutch
@@dutchmenmodsandrepairs1427 Thank you!

Part number for staybrite
Great question! I didn't have it in my video description and I apologize! Thank you for keeping me honest. I added it to the video description and here as well. Thank you for watching the video.- Dutch www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0799NVB4Y/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I also have a 2016 JKU. This fix may work for a couple weeks but it always rides back up and loosens up eventually. These terminals are obsolete and will always create a problem as long as they are not replaced.
Hello and thank you for the feedback! I am not sure about always, but there certainly is the possibility especially if the battery post has been compromised in some way e.g. wire brushed to remove corrosion, but that also removes post material. All in all I think we can agree on at least one thing...it is overall a pretty poor design that causes a lot of people grief! Thanks for watching the video and for the comment. -Dutch
Keep an eye on your canister purge valvue if it progresses with the following issues: 1. check engine intermittent 2. starts but with an extra crank or 2 before it starts 3. feels if a spark plug is slightly misfiring with good plugs 4. decline in gas mileage 5. loss of power steering that clears upon restart. The last is the scariest and you will be highly motivated to get it replaced. They need replacing every 50K to 100K
I really appreciate this input from you! As a matter of time, I have started to experience these symptoms with another odd one that has my eye and hear a bit closer on a root cause. The additional symptom I am talking about is a remote start that actually causes a very slight backfire (and I do mean slight) and also a longer than usual start after that. I will be looking into this a bit more and I really do appreciate you sharing that with me and the community! -Dutch
