@@Irvine860 agreed. I've only been at it for 10 but yeah. I get it. Hey do my breaks. Okay hundred bucks. Uh I got 50. Uh are you kidding? Hey I think my engines seized. Nope. Your water pump. They lied. Oh. Can you do it for 80 bucks? Oh its not a fast easy job on my 02 focus? Oh. So 100? Yeah. Can be honest but us being so honest leads to the people who appreciate it turning into the people who fuck us over instead.
@@Irvine860 😂 😂 yup! Just had that happen with that Ford focus. She had let it get so bad it locked up. Wrapped the belt around everything. Damaged the idler pulley and the tensioner assembly itself.. So at this point its best to jack the entire car up and do it from bottom side or drop the mounts to the block on one side and drop it a little for better access. Yeah and all that for $100? Then the lady said wow you're trash and said you can't even help me in time of my needs. It's almost Thanksgiving. That's when I realized. Yup okay. Only take your honesty so fucken far and it's sick we gotta think like this and everyone wonders why!
Your a real man who has a heart. There’s not to many men out there anymore who do the right thing. The MAN up above has taken note of what you did. Something was given to you and now your passing it on.
@@beezertwelvewashingbeard8703 berates his wife? Lmao what? You got a source for that? Oh and u clearly failed economics if you think people with money only live in extravegance. Most millionaires live frugally. Read: The Millionaire Next Door.
Just make sure the truck goes back to the original owner who inherited it. Good for you for being such a genuine and honest person. Not a lot of people would give up a deal on a vehicle like that. What is really scary is that a shop missed something that obvious. Maybe they were pulling a fast one?
I appreciate you giving your wife credit yet you knew in your heart what direction you needed to take. Which speaks volumes about your character. I can see just by watching this you are a thoughtful and considerate man. If I were in your area I would be honored to have you as a friend. Life is so much more than taking advantage of people and situations. It's what makes life feel good!
I just want you to know how grateful I am that you spent your time making this video, not only does your heart show that you care about someone in the way that you handled the situation, but you helped me tonight. I’ve spent the past two days of my time trying to fix my team leaders 99 expedition. I changed his starter for him, it’s freezing cold out, snow on the ground… just really not a good site from the previous years of work I had at a junkyard being in the winter just took me back. But I digress… I’ve been stumped. I replaced the starter and battery and it made the same sound over and over and over… it really seemed like a seized motor. It seemed like my friend would really need to pay for a brand new motor… I watched countless videos on small minor things that could have caused such an abrupt malfunction to start for him to not be able to even crank his vehicle over. I watched this video and I had hope at first. We took the serpentine belt off and it starts… (cranks over). I’ve had so much mechanical experience but it’s the small things that sometimes pass right over your head. So I just want to say thank you. Not only did you bless a family in need over on your side but you helped me and you really did give back. I’m thankful for you and I wish I could shake your hand and thank you. Keep it up. Once again I appreciate you.
This is one reason I watch your videos. You are a good mechanic and give honest advice and as far as I've been able to tell just an all around great guy
Daniel, your honesty is worth more than $ 500.00 dollars God bless you for doing the right thing we need many more people like you specially some off the mechanics that I have been dealing with.👌👍🙏
I wish our 2002 supercrew fx4 was in this condition! It’s black with some scratches, dings, but shines like new since garage kept by us. Your actions inspire me to become a better person! God-bless for doing the right thing!
Daniel, you will be blessed many times over. Thank you for posting this video. I was working on my 1992 Ford Ranger 3.0L, which I've had for the past 30 years. After running errands in the morning, I came home parked it. Then, when I was leaving for work....the same thing happened motor wouldn't fire up. So, after a few days of troubleshooting , I also thought the motor had seized up. I came across your video, and it was God sent. My alternator was locked up. I couldn't believe it. I took off the belt, and my Danger ranger fired up like a champ! Hard to believe what a locked up bearing pulley would do to the engine. Thanks again for being such a great and honest mechanic. Have a blessed day.🙏
You are an inspiration, Daniel. Thank you for this post as it is helping me with some decisions that I must make. This act defines yourself, and for your own inner peace that is important. Your wife is a very wise person, and you are a wise person to listen to her. You elevated yourself, and you also helped someone who needed help ... double reward.
I was troubleshooting my 04 f-150 an this video popped up, Thank you for posting this because it was exactly what was wrong with mine, I can’t tell you how grateful because I already had it in my head the motor was locked up. Save me a lot of money I don’t have, again thank you
Good for you. Doing the right thing always feels good. And for the people like me that take their vehicles to a local shop and not the dealers, make sure you send a Christmas card and a little gift to your mechanic/shop. Respect goes both ways, our guy has saved my butt more than a few times.
I have been working on my truck for days. Replaced the starter, ignition switch, and run a whole bunch of you tube induced electric tests studying voltage drop and other things with no results…. But… my ac pump hasn’t worked for two years now, and after watching your video, I think this is exactly what is happening to my no crank truck issue. Thank you for posting this story.
the shop clearly wanted to fuck them over. SUPER GLAD you stumbled across it. id be so happy if something so sentimental just needed a tiny fix. so glad its staying in the family. ive spent over my estimated value on my grandpas truck just because i plan on driving it till im dead broke or dead.
I can’t thank you enough for posting this video, I have been searching for how to free up a frozen motor because I purchased a Chevy 3500 extended cargo express van. I thought the motor was seized. First I put a new battery in it because it sat for two years and was about to pull the plugs and try to free it up with kerosene. Looking for easier ways I watched your video. So I tried what you did by cutting the belt off and with great great joy the engine started and runs great. I can’t believe a frozen alternator can stop the battery from turning over the motor but it did. I talked with a lot of people all convinced it was set up. I paid 900. Dollars for this 06 and till now thought it was junk. But now I have a great van because of you. Thank you.
Hey brother, just subscribed to your channel bc really you saved my life. I just got a car for my girl from auction and after she drove it for a while with no problems, her car just started making loud noise and just died on the road. I try cranking it over and it sounded just like a seize engine. I try turning the engine over and it wouldn't budge at all. well after seeing this video, I remove the serpentine belt and lord behold it turned over and cranks up just fine. Thank you for sharing your expert knowledge. Not many people in the industry will share this kind of information. You're a saint my brother.
I understand what you went through .... no doubt it was a hard choice, but the right choices are often the hard ones. Well done, pray you will be rewarded in ways that you can’t even imagine. Happy holidays to you and your family!
I was a mechanic long ago. I used to tell customers the truth and I got fired over it. Once they gave a customer a $2k estimate for a head gasket and it was a 15 min repair for a Tstat. I called the customer and told them $66, 45 min of work+$6 part. I had the same car so I knew the problem. Fired on the spot, in front of the customer. Boss said they will have problems down the line (BS). I test drove it and the needle was dead center for 10 miles. The customer told me you deserve much better than this shit hole. He was 100% right. A few months later the shop was gone. Good to see there are good, honest people around.
OK so here's my follow up. Yesterday (Christmas Day) my gift to myself was taking time to remove the belt, charge the battery, and see if she would turn over. I'll be damned if she didn't fire up. Turn over AND fire up. I let the batteries charge awhile longer and then let her run for about a minute. Once the oil reached the rockers, she quieted down and sounded brand new. No idler pulley, no tensioner pulley, no alternator, power steering, water pump or compressor pulleys making any clatter or racket and she sounded beautiful. I know I need a new alternator and all the top end clatter that every mechanic said was oil pressure and that I would be lucky to make it home before she locked up had to have been something else. I don;t for sure yet what else, but I was about to have a new engine put in. Than you again for this video!
Wow, this is awesome. Not only are you a boss for helping this guy, but I also had the same issue. My mechanic said engine was locked up, but I took a look and the AC pulley is seized. Lines up perfectly because AC went out a while back anyway.
What goes around, comes around. You'll be properly rewarded for your deed. On the note of seized A/C compressors, I had one seize on me back in the mid 90's, but the big 40MT didn't care. When I turned the key and hit the button, the starter turned over the 3306B like it always did, and the twin v-belts paid the price.
Browning “how to fix 2014/2016 ford escape seized engine” Had to comment and applaud the honesty, i woulda felt the same and my wife woulda said the same. Respect.
You'll get blessed double for that man!! Also check the door data plate cause that is either a early model 02 or lower. The mid year 02's driver air bag, the ford emblem is different. It is an emblem. That one in that truck is a stamp on the steering wheel.
Hey watched your video will be trying that on my truck it just quit on me on Thursday and had to have it towed home... thank God you did what God and your wife knew were the right thing. May God bless you and your family for doing the right thing.
Thanks my friend for sharing this video I had the same situation every mechanic says the motor was no good until I seen your video I did exactly what you said and you prove them all wrong my truck started right up after I removed the belt you have the best video 👍👏😀 on the internet 👍
I am proud of you for doing the right thing. Us mechanics already get a bad wrap for ripping people off, and it's unfortunate. Most of us mechanics are good and honest but there are some dishonest mechanics and it spoils it for the rest of us.
Your the needle in the haystack,you absolute did the right thing you never know the situation the owner of the vehicle was in god bless you you are an inspiration and this video was helpful thanks for sharing
Good move man God will bless you for that, u may have helped the couple out more than you will ever know, God will drop a better deal in you lap for this!!
And NOW something completely different... honesty. Good job! Wish there was more of it in this world. That would mean many people would have their feelings hurt. Sad how honesty used to be considered a virtue now, it’s frowned upon.
Hmmm, I have a 2005 Impala that is no crank no start and I jumped that relay pins and only while using extra power from a jumper box I can get a VERY short crank turn, but without the extra battery power...NOTHING! Anyway, I am going to try removing the belt. ALSO, your story reminds me of a guy selling an Equitek E-100 microphone that he said wasn't working and I knew that this mic has an internal battery that needs to be charged and that he likely didn't know. So while I really wanted the mic for cheap I told him what I thought, So the next day the guy was absolutely thrilled that the mic worked perfectly! He was so happy that I didn't take advantage that he insisted on sending me a sony camera that he was also selling...Not quite that mic I wanted but like you, I felt good about it.
That is a very perceptive thought, I have those same reflections. Guys like you and me could never work in sales! The cost of guilty thoughts for years to come is too high. Looking at this from another angle, strangers have done good deeds for us through the years, too. Pay it forward, and you'll be rewarded.
They might have given up hope and bought an unnecessary vehicle in the meantime. Calling them right away was the right thing to do. Then he could fix it after notifying them if he chose to do so.
That's awesome man. I wouldn't have been able to sleep at night if I were in the same situation also. Seems sloppy they saw it bad engine without much else testing but who knows what was going on at the time. I've done similar things with PC repair when someone close comes to me with a problem. Usually just charged them parts and usually fixed it.
Thanks I have this exact problem got some favors for money to fix the compressor & boom it locked on me. I'm pretty bummed but you gave me hope, tomorrow I'll try this out hopefully its the same bcuz i don't have money for both engine & ac. Thanks.

Looking at this from another angle, strangers have done good deeds for us through the years, too. Pay it forward, and you'll be rewarded.
I would've bought it, fixed it and give it back to them. As soon as I heard a financial problem, I couldnt help but figure out a way to help em out.
They might have given up hope and bought an unnecessary vehicle in the meantime. Calling them right away was the right thing to do. Then he could fix it after notifying them if he chose to do so.
That's awesome man. I wouldn't have been able to sleep at night if I were in the same situation also. Seems sloppy they saw it bad engine without much else testing but who knows what was going on at the time. I've done similar things with PC repair when someone close comes to me with a problem. Usually just charged them parts and usually fixed it.
Thanks I have this exact problem got some favors for money to fix the compressor & boom it locked on me. I'm pretty bummed but you gave me hope, tomorrow I'll try this out hopefully its the same bcuz i don't have money for both engine & ac. Thanks.
Wow such honesty!!! Thank you!
God bless you brother! It will come back in good blessings!
nice to see someone with integrity
