Eric I hope you're feeling better in your heart and in your head.
Amen to that.. I ended up getting a transplant
@@adventureoflinkmk2 And does the new head look any better than the old?
@@cogidubnus1953 good one!🤣
Even a frustrated Eric O. is a diligent and thorough Eric O. Pure integrity.
I was a Honda dealer tech for over 40 years and was known as a good diagnostician but too often I relied on experience and intuition trying to shortcut the troubleshooting. I am so impressed by your knowledge across so many car lines, your deep understanding of the operation of a car's systems, your skills with your diagnostic tools and the logic with which you track down the problem. I totally bow to you!
He’s so good it’s almost tempting to drive the 1500 miles for an oil change. Lol
His experience and knowledge to find the problem is nothing short of the great Sherlock ( Mechanic of Auto) show starring Eric.
@@NoName-tz5ji he is so good, I had to buy a shirt!
Agreed, he has excellent diagnostic strategy. I've been a tech for over 30 years, I always recommend his videos to younger techs, weather they watch or not I don't know, this video for example he ohmed the new injector versus the one in question to verify his theory.
Rob, I don't think it's that he has a understanding of the many car lines, he relies on his diag skills, his knowledge of basic electricity (amps, volts, ohms, etc), and a manufacturers diagram of how the cars electrical system is ran. Once you have that information, you can diagnose anything.
I hope your customers know how EFFING LUCKY they are to have you. You're a rare gem.
And the town should honor you annually with an ice cream party.
Anybody who watches his YT channel should be able to understand how exceptional his procedures are, and that he can wrestle in the mud with corrosion and insane designs as well as anybody. It's a _really_ tough job that he does exceptionally well.
You may find this hard to believe, but you're my favorite youtuber by far, I look forward to your videos more than anyone else. I know I'm not alone with my sentiments either. So I'm just sayin that so that you know it's appreciated when you make a video even though you feel like poo, or when you don't really feel like filming and all that.
What you said...
I third this sentiment!
4th
Well said!
I feel this way too. Which blew my mind a few videos back when you said that not all people watch your videos through. Like how is that even possible.
1 of 5 or so channels I keep coming back to. Thanks for finding the time to make us all a little less ignorant.
Come for the knowledge, stay for the Dad Jokes 😂. Thanks for the closure.
Let me add my thanks as well Eric ,for posting when you didn't feel like it.
Right on
Working thru the frustrations of life and maintaining your professionalism makes you the good honest man you are 👌
Non stop binge watching every solitary video on your channel. The good bad and the ugly, every single video is amazing. Keep it up.
One of the most honest talented technicians in the country.
Hey you've made my day. I didn't had a great day either. Thanks for sharing and you don't have a clue how you can positively impact people by your work and video. Regards
Mr O, please know that you make our hearts and our heads feel better with whatever you post. I hope all is well.
I'm addicted to SMA but it's especially nice to see something I may encounter down the road.
You're a good man Charlie brown
Best show on RUclips.
The level of instruction you provide is incredible. Please take good care of yourself, Mr. O. We need you.
Thanks for the follow-up. It is always nice to get a surprise.
Eric O is a man of men, one that doesn't, as of yet give up or into electrons, Great Method Eric, Keep it up.
As a fellow mechanic of 45 years, I must say that I appreciate your honesty, openness, and thoroughness, as well as your intelligent approach to each problem you encounter. Thank you for the extra effort you have put into your work to produce these videos. That in itself is a very time consuming job, let alone diagnosing and repairing these vehicles.
Another success by Mr. O
Awesome Job Just retired after 44 years as a Technical Mechanic keep up the good work
Thanks for the closure! Now get yourself some closure on your shop and go home to RELAX! Don't need a video all the time, but it's always nice to see 'em. I appreciate your work very much.
The follow up was a bonus. I feel complete.
What I really like here is the way you quickly and easily check your data to verify your assumptions. For example, in this video you disconnected the injector and retested the resistance at that distant connector, proving that you were replacing the right one. Sure, nine times out of ten the wiring diagram and scan tool are correct, but the tech will get blamed if he didn't notice somebody else's error.
Closure is good! Thanks for sharing!
Closure is always important. A finished task is fulfilling to body, mind and soul
Some of your best videos that are the BEST are your follow up ones that you do .
Thanks for the closure. I enjoyed the video. Always like seeing your videos. Never seen a bad one.
Another job handled by the best mechanic I enjoy learning from
Thanks much Eric! Any and all videos appreciated.❤️❤️
Another satisfied customer Mr O! You are a man after my own heart, not jumping in at the deep end, but moving through a sound diagnostic process. Then double checking the repair is really professional and something most people would not do. Feel better now....hope so, as doing this for a living day in day out can be a grind for all of us, especially after the year we have all experienced. As Churchill liked to say, keep buggering on!
Hey now
" Elementary " for the great Sherlock ( Mechanic of Auto).
Thanks. It was good to see the follow up. I hope your evening goes better than your day.
Thanks for taking the time to make a video even on a hectic day!!! Much appreciated!
That feeling you have inside , that´s my Sunday evening and Monday morning. And I bet that I am not alone .
You will feel better because you made the video for us. Thanks and Stay positive.
Dad jokes, guaranteed to make your day better.👍
Keep on truckin Eric............all of us can learn something from your efforts!
You done a good job on explaining how to diag an injector that's not good. Its good to watch and learn from the good master.
Truly enjoy your videos. I don't think most people understand the work that goes into making them, on top of you taking care of a family and customers/business. Thanks for the update.
Hey Eric just wanted to say thanks! Watched your video on the Escape with the bad actuator on the hatch...gave me the confidence to replace the one on my wife’s car. Thanks again!
Sch'mooth followup there sir. Thanks Dr. O!
I didn't think a follow up video would be uploaded today! Awesome!
We need more mechanics like you.
Eric I aspire to be a fraction of how smart and diligent you are always getting to a solution. I’ve got a ton to learn but so do we all. Your videos are always informational. If You ever close up shop I bet people would flock to classes taught by you. Very well explained always and easy to follow / entertaining. I love your videos and pray you keep it up for years to come. Thank you for your time and hard work and humility.
Thanks Eric for taking the time to make all of these videos, I appreciate it.
Don’t get frustrated Eric, when it comes to analysis, you are THE MAN.
getting closure on an open circuit is always good
Nice Eric, I wish we would of trained
on scopes back when I went to
School as a GM tech in the late 80s!!
That's cool you can see #4 injector
dropping out in real time, nice fix!!
best honest mechanic with a heart :)
It's great when you get the job and can show the end result of the diagnosis and repair. Short & sweet
Thank you for the follow up. I’ve learned so much watching your channel. Appreciate the time you take to put out videos for us.
THANK YOU FOR THE FOLLOW UP VIDEO. IF THE PICO IS HAPPY ERIC IS HAPPY. PLEASE ACTIVATE CLOSED CAPTIONING FOR THOSE OF US WHO HAVE HEARING PROBLEMS.
Another solid fix! Yeh, I've had some of those days when you feel like crap and wonder why you're still doing this. Then along comes a job that makes you feel great when you finish it. The customer is thankful the job went great, and you're in your happy zone again. I like the "money light's on" videos. They're learning videos.
Thanks, Eric! Hope the rest of the day was better.
Thank you for finishing this off. And thanks for doing your videos. I love learning from you.
Just wanted to drop by for my first comment. Have always been a gear head that has shied away from the big bad electrical work.
Rewind to three months ago, I work for an auto manufacturer and recently transferred departments from production to repairs. Your videos 100% gave me the confidence to jump right in the deep end. I’m currently a specialist in electrical repair now and loving it!
All the currents are currently the same. I see what you did there.
He's really raisin his game
We appreciate it, Doctor O. I’m happy seeing whatever you take the effort to post...
Eric thanks for follow-up even when you aren't feeling your best you are appreciated
There needs to be more mechanics like you. Open, honest, with pride and integrity in your work.
He is the real deal in a top level mechanic.... he uses the monitors and clues collected by electronics really well (beyond what most fellows can follow). Keep this guy making videos to help ordinary fellows realize a car is a machine and not magic at all.
Great finish, I hope you feel better soon. Thanks
Well that was quick follow up, thanks for the closure Mr. O, I can sleep soundly tonight.
Another Great Video by the infamous Professor Eric O. Thank You.
Love every video you’ve created! I’ve learnt so much from you with your methods of diagnosis and now use what I’ve learnt from you on the road. I’m a roadside technician from uk. Thanks for being the best on RUclips and keep the good work going! ❤️
Been watching you for about a year and love watching your diag videos while I eat dinner and my lunch breaks. You help a lot to teach us the procedures and mindset when tackling engine performance and electrical jobs!
Be well Eric, thanks for the followup video.
Another SMA video without Brake Cleaner! The end of the world is nigh! Thanks Mr. O for showing the fix for the well engineered Fiat Chrysler product.
Thanks Eric O. For the follow up video, glad to see it was just an injector causing the issue.
Thanks for taking the time for this video.
Always enjoy watching and learning , wish more mechanics could be like you. But then you wouldn't be so special.
Thanks Mr. O! I always look forward to your videos and appreciate you and your efforts! Doing your full-time job, your full-time family and making videos for the RUclips I imagine you can get pretty burnt out. Just know that most of us really appreciate you! Thanks again!
G'day, Eric! Nice job! You could think of it... as another 'satisfied customer!!' (Henry Ford once said, "It is not the employer who pays the wages. Employers only handle the money. It is the customer who pays the wages.”)
By the way... Enjoyed the video! No matter how big a crowd may be on, (YT) a person like you (with wonderful integrity) always stands out! There’s no one who has worked as hard as you folks, Mrs. O., and your family too!! Hope you know... This follow up diagnosis, was very much appreciated!
Thank you so much!!
Cheers! 😊🛠✌🏻❤️
Great Job! Glad you finished with the second video. Like always there is a learning experience from all of your videos. Ive been doing this for 23 years and remember doubting my diagnostic techiniques when Ifirst started. I truely believe that the scope is the best tool for diagnostics. Trial and error, its not a mistake if you learn from it. Thanks again Eric!
Eric I love your honest opinion and the integrity you show thank you for making these video and thank you for taking the time to even explain what you are doing versus just doing it and saying welp there you go
Thanks for that follow up. I always hope the customer gives you that green light so we can learn from you. I also hope whatever is aggravating you will work out in your favor.
Sir, I juist want to deeply thank you as I had this same issue with my 08 Wrangler with cylinder, and followed your steps, which fixed and solved the problem which was a bad fuel injector sezieing when the engine get hot. Really appreciate you.
Eric, you help make other peoples day. You do more than you know in our lives. Thanks
Thanks Eric...Love the process...YOU helped me understand following the process...having a plan...TRUST THE DATA...
Thanks for the closure. I lost sleep over that one.
Thanks for taking the time during a rough day to make a follow-up video for us, Eric. I enjoyed it!
Thanks for taking the time to update us. You sound like you need a hug bro. Just sayin.
Professor Eric O does it again! As usual
A good person does what they think they should even when they don't have to and don't want to.
Eric, this channel is by far the ONLY channel I look forward to new content from. You are truly a diamond in the rough when it comes to RUclips content creators.
Keep up the good work.
there is a reason you have over 500K subscribers, nice work
Thanks for the closure. Glad it's running! Feel better friend.
Thank you for taking us along for the final repair. We all have bad days and we just want to be left alone to do the job, but you are willing to bring a few thousand of your followers along to confirm your analysis and we get to see what fixed really looks like. Your followers are loyal enough that we would go with you while taking your kids to the zoo, and would enjoy your comments on that
Thanks for the years and hours of added effort to entertain and inform your groupies.
Thanks for taking the time, 0.5 ohms variance usually the maximum amount of variation allowed between injectors.
Eric O. I love your channel and truly enjoy all of it's content. I watch your videos for all of the knowledge you share with the rest of your South Maniacs Auto Family out here, and of course for the entertainment factor that you and Mrs. O. Bring to the videos as well.
I truly appreciate you guys and all of your videos my friend.
Mr.O
The issue isn't a short video. There is no issue and everyone learned something worthwhile. You hit the ground running. Unlike so many others. Thanks.
You are a great mechanic
Hang in there, Mr. O. We may not know your troubles. but we wish you all the best.
Had another injector in shop today 35 ohms Dodge Journey 3.6 I can’t wait to get my pico scope thanks for all you do Eric
Thank you sir for the follow up even though you are frustrated and not feeling good.
I hope you feel better soon. I know I feel better watching your videos because they are very informative as well as entertaining. I have learned alot from watching your diagnostic methods and I want to say Thanks! Keep them coming. Have the Mrs make you some soup or other dish to make you feel better.
Thank you Eric. Have a good evening Brother
Great Job chasing that down Eric. Felt your frustration myself many times. Hearing that fixed motor just purring away helps return that feeling of comfort. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you and God bless you and yours! Excellent work.
Thanks for the follow up and hope our comments make you feel at least a bit better!
