You almost had me with that brass brush head, let's just hope "Boomer-Bob" or "DIY-Karen" really does remove the gas tank though. Thanks for the links, that ITS600 is looking pretty handy my guy..
I'd rather watch Eric fix a Buick than watch football
Agreed
what football, the run with a egg kind or the propper kick the round thing in to the net.
AMEN.
Here here
I'd rather watch paint dry than watch football of either flavour (soccer or American)
It really is amazing how fast those fuel tanks can be taken out and replaced on those Buicks. 😂
It's called quicky.
😂
Off camera of course.
That is why all the lines have quick connects on them - you never know when you will need to swap out a fuel tank. 😂
I learned in blasting school that brass is non-sparking. So using a brass wheel doesn't require a tank drop. Just sayin'
5:10 Wait, a customer who looks at gauges?! Incredible! 🙂
It’s really a pleasure watching a man who knows his trade.
That must be the fastest fuel tank removal and refit ever, just took a sip of tea and it was done. 😊😊
Fuel tank "removal" LOL
Can't find that no-lift fuel tank removal kit on Amazon...
He paused the camera. 😂
That is one very observant customer. The temperature gauge fluctuating is the sort of thing I would notice, but I'm convinced that hardly anyone really looks at the engine gauges, never mind noticing unusual fluctuations. Good eye, customer.
You have to be observant when you own a GM 3.6.
That a Buick luxury car would even have a gauge is surprising.
Agree. More like 'clustomer'
You make diagnostics look so logical and dare I say,simple.
If only I could find someone with your skills
😃
A buddy at work kept having problems with his daughter's car. The EVAP canister kept filling with gas. He confirmed with her that she was not continuously topping off to make it to the next dollar or something. The garage replaced the canister twice each time saying she's topping it off too much.
I told him to get a second opinion. I speculated the purge valve was stuck on. He's now recently had the canister and both valves (purge and vent) replace at a second garage. Still not exactly a diagnostic process, but hopefully this end the debacle.
Good automotive techs are hard to find.
I like how Eric doesn't always grab a electric or pneumatic tool to tighten a nut or bolt. I've seen the young guys quit what they're doing to find a power tool and by the time they find it they could have had the job done.
The part we do not see is when Eric puts the torque wrench to every fastener. He does that off camera because he knows it would be boring to us. Same for things like pulling off and replacing the fuel tank to safely clean the filler neck. It takes a big man to think of the little guy.
Wink ! Wink ! Nudge ! Nudge !
@@davidquinn6161 Oh yea, he even torques the muffler clamps to specs...wink, wink, nudge, nudge
Future mechanics will be scrawny guys with huge thumbs to push the power button on their tools.
So, apparently your opinion is low of younger technicians who rely on technology too much... You have to give them a fair shake as this is the way the modern world is pushing them.
Leave it to GM to make the owner/service tech have to remove ten clips and a huge plastic cover just to access the radiator cap.
Have never been able to understand the reason for all of those plastic covers. Just something to be in the way.
You should see where the transmission dipstick is. Lol. Never mind there isn't one
Sure is a trans dipstick! @@SouthMainAuto
It's almost like they don't want the owners to work on the vehicles anymore!
My Toyota doesn't have a transmission dipstick, but it doesn't need one. It has a manual transmission.@@SouthMainAuto
You've got these problems down to step 1, 2, 3 done. I like your quick test to verify the evap system sealing works.
Cool one Mr. O.
Nothing like a good and honest mechanic 👍
Eric you are a excellent tech, well done as usual!! Keep up the great work, and please keep the videos coming 😊
Eric’s been saving this one for a little bit
Yeah I forgot about it to be honest lol
The mower and the siren today?? What a treat!
As Always Eric YOU are the BEST OF THE BEST!!!!!!
If you haven't, I've not seen it... interview "mower man". He's a regular "star" of your shows
Funny you should mention Standard motor parts. Today I did spark plugs on a 17 Chrysler Pacifica and needed a new coil boot nobody sells just the boot so I had to buy a complete coil, from O'Reilly's not a sponsor, which was in a standard motor parts box when I pulled it out it was a Mopar part.
I worked at a auto parts store in 77 and they sold standard, but don’t recall ever seeing that. Makes me wonder if someone else returned said parts in your box. Happens a lot at these big stores anymore.
Yeah oftentimes standard motor products will have an OEM part in the box. Seeing it more and more often
@@SouthMainAuto that’s cool, I would rather have oem than after market any day!
Yeah absolutely I know how mopar's are with aftermarket parts. If it would have been a aftermarket part it would have been put in the back of the engine where I could have accessed it easily without taking the plenum off again. I didn't even use aftermarket spark plugs. Bought them right from Mopar even though they're champions.
You almost had me with "I've removed the fuel tank."
The high-noon air horn and lawnmower man on a Sunday afternoon. My day can’t get any better! Thanks for the great video Eric O!
Eric don't fret the Power Chains. In Avoca by Spring, they'll have rusted away.
Video ends with a bang. Air raid siren. Great video triple combo
"removed the fuel tank" 🤣 Troll control 101
🤥
Made me chuckle.
22:28" Is this your first time fella" - I lold so hard 🤣
Mr O dropped the fuel tank 😉, but if you don’t, never use a wire brush wheel on the filler neck, only a brass brush wheel as it won’t cause sparking.
Good job again Mr O 👍
Car sure makes a lot of noise
Yeah that’s what they say all of the time, but I’m just not sure I would still chance it.
If you can even buy an actual brass brush, and not just a brass plated steel brush
What about fine sand paper or emery cloth?
I doubt he removed the fuel tank at all.
Took longer to take off the beauty cover than it did to actually install the sensor. You reminded me I have to do the EVAP solenoid and my wife’s discovery. Thankfully we live in a no inspection state but still I’m tired of the money light coming on.
And I’m convinced that the biggest feature of a TPMS sensor is to cost money.
I always learn something from watching Eric work. 👍
I've been watching your videos for years and really wish I lived close enough to have South main Auto work on my cars. Love the channel.
I wouldn’t move to NY for money, but would love to have him for a neighbor
Those "power chains" your orthodontist gave you, it's a common misconception that they make you go faster. All they really do is increase your towing capacity. ;)
Man, you make it all look so effortless!!!
that mercury town car was mint! Too bad we didn't get a vid of that old dog
Thoroughly enjoyable and informative video with a cameo by the lovely Mrs. O. Who could ask for more! Thank You!!
It’s always a good day when I can watch an SMA video.
That was a great and easy service. Thanks for sharing.
A nice logical repair ! Thanks for sharing !
Happy thanksgiving to you and your family. I appreciate the education you’ve given me over the years!
I love watching experience do tire work. First skills learned are executed best!
Outstanding job as usual.
The 3 most common "pattern" failures on the gm R & V body. GRAVY! There are a few more that require no diag time and pay good. A real money maker for us techs.
always like the Enclave videos. I know what to look for on mine.
High noon alarm at the end, Nice Completed Job 🇺🇸👍
28:21 - your video is now perfect and now deserves a thumbs up.
Thanks for another great video and showing the basics of diagnosing a problem. Have a great Sunday.
Great video again from SMA.allowing me to avoid other types of entertainment that truly will never satisfy my curiosity as this channel does...kudos !!!
Let's add a million sensors, that way we can potentially have a million more problems than just the normal ones on a vehicle when the sensors itself fails, BRILLIANT ENGINEERING FEAT!
Thats what you get when the government, EPA is involved. Don't vote for green agenda next time. It's going get a lot worse with EV's
Sensors for your backup sensors in case your sensor monitoring your 67th module fails, what they've done is create an endless loop of failure points. 99% of this crap isn't necessary for a running operating vehicle but the EPA is the greatest money laundering organization in the world. Close second is paying taxes on something you outright own, it's theft.
Thanks for the video Mr. O. I enjoy all your hard work. Happy holidays to you and the family! Stay safe, be blessed. Love from AZ❤
Thanks for the videos Mr O. Nothing to say, just commenting for the algorithm. Stay safe out there.
His deadpan humor kills me every time!!
A nice quick job first thing in the morning! It's always good when things are kept this simple. Doesn't happen that often.
Got done with this video just in time for lunch! I heard the siren go off. Don’t think I didn’t live in a small town before. 😂😂
It only blows once for noon, 12 to 15 times for fire or ambulance
Same problem with the purge valve that Mrs Tizzo had when we were in there 1 time. Thanks again for the help on that. I'm glad the one for this vehicle wasn't as hard to find as hers was.
Started using the pressure build when vent is closed check after watching your video’s, have to say very handy and works well for large leaks.
Had my first MAJOR whoops in a LONG time last night. Was re-installing the banjo bolt for a rear caliper, was not paying attention and was in a hurry, the threads caught some of the copper washer on the way in, and chowdered up the threads on the way in. In my stupidity, I kept threading it in, knowing it felt strange, but because I didn't feel a lot of ressitance, I kept going. Yay for stripped caliper.
What's better than loctite?? Cross thread!!!
I would not have thought Eric O was such a delicate flower.
Great video as always.
So many years I've seen your videos and everyone of them are totally educational and entertaining, God bless you and the Family (including the dogs and Kitty. Kitty.
Thanks for the video
I am so proud that none of my vehicles have tire pressure monitors, drive by wire, electric steering. makes life so simple
Your horse carriage has wooden wheels.
@@michaelnomura5196 yes 1994 ram 2500 4wd 5spd so simple
I'm jealous, my 2000 chevy 6.5 has several.
Why are you "proud"?
Such an odd thing to be proud of.
My car has none of those either.
@@Cheepchipsable I don't have to worry about fixing all that un needed stuff
Removed the gas tank 😂.
Thanks for the videos, I enjoy your channel!
Good options & review.
Very informative video. Thanks again...
Heard your lunch whistle, so much be time to fill the braces with food particles. Thanks for the easy tests for evap systems, My 05 Silverado loves to get new evap solenoids till I relocated it to the frame rail tube and closed the ends with shop towels as I live on dirt and rock roads it get gets filled pretty quick with dust.
Thank you!
Happy Thanksgiving to you and Mrs. O and the kids!
Nice work
I have those same exact Carburetor adjusting (rad cap removal) channel locks.
Good job
After watching Eric O. for several years, I have found myself going back, "when no one is watching" and torquing all my fasteners to factory specs.😂😂😂😂😂
Always torque to factory spec....
The German factory ❤❤
Remove and install fuel tank: 3 seconds. 😂
Hey Eric , Scotty will have a cow if he sees you fixing tpms sensors.
I had a reoccurring small evap leak in my 02 Town & Country that I could not track down. I put silicone grease around the fuel neck like E did in this video and I have not had the problem since.
I have got to get me one of those adjustable pry bars. I freaking love that thing.
Luv me sum SMA❤
And I used to get yelled at for using a torque wrench to tighten lug nuts. Enjoyed the diag. Eric
Another great training aid
Good info Mr. O, Thanks for the upload.
Awesome video! Sorry your power chains were not what you were hoping for. 😊
Another great video Mr O, more great tips to store in the ol' brain bucket 👍👍
I watch Eric repairs and football at the same time. More please young man!
Afternoon Eric👍
New S.M.A. ,new MUSTIE 1 ,new DIESEL CREEK. Not a bad start to a sunday.
Murphys Diesel is a good one to consider.
The wonderful GM EVAP codes, almost as likely to occur as needing gas. At least the beautiful Mrs O made an appearance to brighten up the day. Just kidding, I love all your videos and helps get my mind off this pneumonia bug I’m fighting.
Bring back the pocket T's. Thanks for the vid.
Sweet! We just need a couple of «enhance» to make it perfect😊
Someone down below said they would rather watch Eric than watch football. OK, now I can go and watch sundays NFL games. Always do SMA before football if available.🙂
So the South Main Auto channel has always been one of my top favorites. My second one was to Watch Wes works. But Wes has dropped to about 10 now. Second favorite let's dig 18.
I love let's dig 18
If WWW dropped to 10 because of his project stuff versus vehicles, Wes has had a few vehicles in lately. Just maybe Wes is rethinking closing his auto shop completely.
Between the lawn mower guy and the bomber siren I couldn't hear a word you said.. but it was fun to watch. :)
Love me some SMA!
Very nice, I was surprised the the no code for un-commanded purge as well. I don't have a vacuum guage so I guess allowing it to suck water from a tube from a bucket on the floor would be good enough to prove the prove the valve is flowing.
or stick your finger on the port and see if there is vacuum
Nice to see someone using an actual torque wrench to tighten wheel lugs instead of an impact and torque stick like so many places. I had several studs broken, or over torqued to the point of cross threading, on my last car by places just going to town with the impact and torque stick. Didn't help that Subaru uses softer steel for their studs and required lower torque than a lot of domestic brands.
Love the phone by the pocket 🤙 always ready
Ps football and baseball and soccer and tennis too lol keep the vibes coming Eric
Had tire pressure sensor go bad on my work truck, sometimes it would read correctly and other times it would read way high or not at all. Also had an evap code kept tripping on 2002 Dodge Ram. Checked all hoses and purge valve. Turned out to be a bad seal on the gas cap.
Jeez I have a 20 year old Nissan & none of those engine parts have been replaced only failure I have had was the key immobiliser chip crapped itself.Cheers Mr. O.
And the warning siren to signal the end of the video. You’ve got everything sorted there Eric 😉
Love. The. Enclave
Love the video
OEM parts. Took me a week to get a crank sensor from GM. The shop that sent it to me put 2 aftermarket sensors in it. It would run, then the tach would die and the crank time was long. Delco sensor cured the problem. ;)
That Lunch Time Air Raid Siren was timely to end this episode.
Just got done watching the Cadillac engine swap great job looks and sounded great
Great job
Thanks 👍
Thanks for the video Eric. Don't forget to brush your tongue!
😛
good job boss
