First step: Remove fuel pump fuse, crank starter for a few seconds to remove fuel and pressure from fuel line in order to release the grips on the line. Second step, have engine engineers put in jail for stupidity for putting the sensor in a position that required the removal of 1/3rd of the engine to access sensor.
After putting the engineer in jail, give the manager and accountant a bonus for the 3 cents per unit cost savings by making the engineer put the sensor in the worst location possible.
I call that Stupid buy design as it was designed by Stupids!
I have a friend that is an engineer, It is not the engineers so much as the accountants and marketing.
It's easy to get to in my Chevy van
If they are still using the popit type fuel injection, turning the engine over with the fuse out won't release the pressure.. they'll still be around 50 psi or so.
I was a mechanic for many years until My career ended due to life-altering issues. I just wanted to let you know, that your videos bring me joy and comfort! Thank you!!
Just letting you know I enjoyed the video Ray. I do hope that if the hurricane arrives that first and foremost no one was injured, and secondly that property damage was minimal. I grew up in the tropics of Australia and went through more than a few cyclones. I understand what you guys go through in hurricane season. Stay safe!
Ray, you made my life very easy with this video. Had a 5.3l Chevrolet Savanna come into the shop, probably the only one in Europe. We had already replaced the transfer case and did the TSB fill procedure. Then I noticed the oil pressure gauge doing the same as in this video. Fortunately I was able to pull the rear engine cover inside the car to get at the sensor since US car parts in Europe are scarce (took six months to get the transfer case from the US). We made a special socket and got the sensor swapped out without any issues. Pressure gauge now reads as it should. Thank you for this video as it made it a very easy job seeing where it is and what’s needed.
Ray the thing that I like about you is your awesome sense of humor. Also your are one of the most meticulous mechanics. This makes you very enjoyable to watch. ❤🔥
Just did my knock sensors in my 02 silvarodo seen you also did the rtv around the boots like the service bulletin called for back in the day...2nd round did it myself since it wasn't done right the first repair although they did last almost 10 yrs without the rtv. Anyways keep up the great content and you helped me get motivated to do more repairs myself
I didn’t realize you had so many critics of your work. Anyone can armchair mechanic. I appreciate you Ray!!! Keep up the great videos
In battle, it is always easier to lead troops from the rear than from the front.
At least those armchair guys have an opinion or a view. What's next, spelling and punctuation complaints?
@@billtmarchi4320 I did hear Ray say “their” when he should’ve said “there” at one point
@@buttfingerblaster LOL
"Supposed to be a hurricane coming" says Ray as he ceaselessly continues to film for us
just another rainy day
Until the water starts coming into your house. Two inches is all it takes to have a totaled house. You have to gut it then. Worse is two feet - cause you watch all your stuff float off and it leaves two inches of mud in its place. Been there done that.
I thought he was going to run around saying the sky is falling the sky is falling the sky is falling but he just manned up and kept on going have a great day
@@michaelpressman7203 nah most people who grew up in florida arent worried about them. general rule of thumb is be worried about a cat 3, get the hell out of the way for a cat 4 or 5. 1 and 2 are just a rainy day. trees down in Florida mean nothing because roots only to down like 3 or 4 feet even if the tree is 100 feet tall the water table just isnt that far down
What a pro! !
Good day to you Ray from all your friends in the UK! 😊🇬🇧
I have had a replacement sender for my 02 for several years. It has a fluttery reading at idle but reads fine under power. A common problem. Looking at this vid ... and procrastination has served me well on this one... what a pita for something so simple.
Great video Ray. Hope you and your family stay safe with the hurricane coming. Be safe.
Busted a gut when he was showing off his wobbly and dropped it. Always here for a laugh thanks ray!!
Ray, I hope you and your family/friends are safe and didn't suffer too much damage. I am in the Tampa area, and as your neighbor, I wish you the best!
I did it with a deep well socket, 3 in long extension, universal joint, and ratchet. All half inch drive. A 6-in extension is too long but a 3 in extension and universal is just right. The ratchet handle will swing over top of everything but the ratchet will still fit under the bump out of the firewall. The only thing I removed other than the sending unit is the plastic cover on top of the engine. Fuel rails stayed in place.
Had the same issue on a 2003 Trailblazer, but the oil pressure issue was the little stepper motors on the dash. Replaced that and everything was good. Stay safe in the hurricane. Great video as always.
Had an 04 Yukon XL, half the stepper motors went out. Speedometer would still go up when slowing down until it pegged out. Replaced all and everything was good. It is a common problem in those model years. So much so that GM warranties them up to 70K miles if I remember right.
Hope yall stay safe with these storms coming yalls way Ray!
Great job, great explanation. Please stay safe through the hurricane!!!!
Morning Ray, thanks for the video! They are my favorite companion to my morning coffee 🫡
I had a 2003 avalanche same issue and my friend a mechanic replaced it within 15 min. Like you, he knew where it was and tools to remove. Just realized you Ray, love taking things apart. Lol, and awesome at it! Great video as well. I too am impacted with theses hurricanes. Stay safe and to all us Floridians. Have a great day!
Love your videos, I find them entertaining and educational. Your a good narrator. Keep them coming.
I love the whole knock sensor job, with the RTV Dam TSB... lol what a fix. Been there done that 10yrs ago.. bought all new connectors and oem sensors and the metal gaskets. Packed full of mud under there... and really fun when they break off and you have to pull the lifter galley cover and use extractors to fight that...
Always Rainman Ray's Repairs Water and Coffee each morning. Thank you. Damn Knox sensors and Oil Pressure sensor! This home Mechanic has tackled this one. What I found is the three failed somewhat together because when it gets hot, coolant sprayed all over the back of the engine from those damn plastic (not so) quick disconnects for the heater hoses to the firewall for the heater core. About the same mileage as this Suburban.
Couple years back when I was in my teens, my dad replaced the sending unit on a Tahoe but told the customer to order OEM parts and they bought the cheapest one off ebay and insisted on it being installed, needless to say they eventually listened when the issue came back and he told them this would happen lol it was not even two months and it broke again, put a OEM part and it's still working now
Hey Ray be safe when the storm comes though thanks for the great videos!
We can learn alot, just by watching you, thank you Ray.
Always enjoy your videos. Stay safe over on the Westside. I'm over on the Eastside below Daytona. Going to be a bit windy soon.
Yeah he's in a shop in Sarosota like half an hour north of me, crazy, stay safe ray
Seeing those towels in the intakes brought back a situation I saw in my youth. A friend had a 58 Chevy with a 348, it broke the distributor drive and when he pulled the intake so he could get the broken piece out he stfeed shop rags like that. To make it short he was in the drives seat and wanted the radio on and turned the key to far. A week later with new head gaskets and distributor on it lived again.
Stay safe this week Ray. We’re shuttered up and hunkering down in Cape Coral. Should be fun.
Good job Ray Ray, Nice and quick fix for the morning job.
I wish you and your family the best during this hurricane. Stay safe and protect your family as I know you will. P.S. GREAT video!
Just seen the weather forecast. I wish all the best for Ray, his colleagues and families for the upcoming nightmare. Stay safe everyone
Always a pleasure to watch you do your thing Ray. Another top video Stay safe
I liked how you popped the hood and started class. Had me feeling like a student. Your personality seems well suited for teaching. 🍻🖖
He does. I was an instructor in college, and had to painfully acquire the teaching methods and skills that seem so natural for him.
I don't know why, but the 8mm wibbly-wobbly "fling to freedom" made me smile. Thanks!
Wow! You're STILL spamming this guy! WTF! Get a life, dude!
Please stay safe you and your family Ray!!!
Great job Ray! Hope you escape damage from the Hurricane. Fiona did huge damage on the east coast of Canada.
Hope all is well with you and your family thru the Hurricane! Stay safe brother! ❤️
The flashlight with subscribe button and off set playing now I remember why I keep watching you🤣🤣🤣👍
Hey ray i hope all you're family stay safe iv just heard in England that its going to be a really bad hurricane please stay safe mate
Batten down the hatches Rain Man! Ian is heading your way. Stay safe!
Hope you and yours weather the storm alright. I went through a couple when I lived in southeast Texas. They suck.
Actually, these Storms Blow.....
You pulled that manifold in 15 minutes. When I did my knock sensors almost 10 years ago on my 02 silverado... that took me hours!
I am only a few minutes in, and I have got to say that the Suburban you are working on appears to be exceptionally well cared for. The 1999-2007 full size GM chassis trucks are really hard to beat. BEST of luck and safety to you and your family with the possible approaching storms.
Yes indeed , I have a 02 Tahoe. With 275k miles since new. I have put some money into it. Like a head gasket, replaced exhaust valves while there. It didn’t have the defective castech heads that GM encountered in these years. Thankfully… rebuilt trans with corvette servos…And normal wear and tear parts etc etc Since then i can’t break this truck. Just do faithful maintenance.
They are tanks! About 7 years ago I was hit by a drunk driver who was in an early 2000 suburban. She went the two traffic lights and the traffic control box before slamming into my rear fender. Needless to say everything bent to will of the suburban and it didn’t have a scratch on it other than a small dent in its chrome bumper. My Nissan Sentra on the other hand did not fair too well.
@@chronovore7234
I had a Nissan Xterra rear end me and totaled their SUV I suffered a dented tailgate repair and bumper replacement. I even tried to move away from the collision in the lane next to me anticipating his collision. He still found me. 😂 anti lock brakes I guess locked anyway in the rain.
I need to ask (hopefully Ray see's this), is this the same truck you did the knock sensors on?
@@Marineio yes, he said that at the beginning of the video
Hope all is well Ray I'm in the UK very rough looking storm watching the news about sunny florida work must be cancelled for a while surely all the best Ray from us here
Good luck with the storm, stay safe and dry.
Thank you Ray that is helpful video I have 88 suburban with the same issue not sure how to tackle The issue
Good day to you Ray. Greetings from the Netherlands.
Thank you for the showing to pull through intake. That was fast.....😊
Ians building up for a ( depending on where you are in Florida ) cat-1 on up to cat-3 and 4 possibly. My sister in the northern parts is expecting at most a cat-1 with 10" of the sideways liquid variety. Hope you fair well, both at work and at the home. Best of luck and health Ray.
Fel-pro really are the best gaskets. I had a tour of their factory many years ago. Those folks care about quality!
Stay safe! Hope there isn't too much damage done but it looks to be a big one.
Not sure where you are in Florida but I wish you the best with the hurricane. Stay safe Ray love your videos.
All your videos are great and entertaining I was looking for the knock sensor video you did not put it in the description
Good luck with the upcoming storm Ray. 👍
School got cansled so I get to watch more Rainman rays repairs
So appreciate your videos and your do doo dos! Love it haha 😄 😆 Work at an emmisons testing driving all these cars on Dynamometers 😁😑🙄🤪👏🤣 manual and automatic AWD FWD RWD. So great to relax with your videos after work! Thank you RAY! KEEP IT UP!
Good video Ray !
you really had me falling of my seat with laughing when the socket came off , but you sorted it all again well done and thanks for the video
I put an alternator in my car last week and I dropped my 12 mm socket hunted for it with a flashlight and a magnet could not find it drove the car was running great but and two days later I said I got to find that socket I opened the hood look down and there it was sitting at the bottom of the engine cover that protective thing under my motor that does I don't know what and hey I must live right cuz I got my socket back and I hate breaking up sets have a good day
I heard it hit the floor. I was like YESSSSSSS
I was waiting for… socket gravity. lol
and another brilliant video,thankyou Ray entertaining as usual,,see you in the next one,,👌✌
Hope you are prepared for hurricane Ian, looks like it's coming right towards your area. Hopefully it shifts a little more west so you won't see those cat3/4 winds.
You know Ray, for a guy on his first day on the job, you have the makings of a great mechanic. Keep up the great work
LOL
Pretty sure that's a scam message.
My coffee tastes so much better when I'm watching your video in the morning
Ray.. in regards to your coffee comment. Years back a friend of mine told me this quote because I drive a diesel.. "Who needs coffee when you got torque?"
good luck with Ian, I left Fla. at the end of 2004 after the 4 hit Seminole Co.
I had to replace the sending unit on my 05 Sierra a while back and managed to do it with just the over off. Mind you it was a total pain and I planned to do it before driving so no heat to deal with.
That mini pry bar appears to be invaluable
Good morning Ray another awesome video.
That's convenient. I own an older 5.3, and I replaced the oil sending unit last year. I never got to remove the intake, so your video helps, especially the way you identify parts as you go in. It sounds like later models are harder to reach. Along the way, I found the sending unit is a simple resistor, so you can mimic it with a simple resistor led to ground. In the dealers manual they tell you what the gauge should read with, for example, a 100 ohm resistor fed to ground.
Good morning Ray, thanks for the video. It went smooth as butter.
I'll be busy getting ready for the hurricane 🌀 today. I don't have a generator so if the power goes out it will be bad 😞. Stay safe and have a good day 🇺🇸💪💯
Make ice and bottle some extra water 💧
We stash ice bags in the fridge and load the freezer with it to hold the cold 🥶
I myself Wired my house for generator so I can plug it in the side of the house and back feed into the service main disconnect thing if you do that disconnect your breaker box on your meter if you don't backfeed the power lines and electrocute the workers have a great day
@@michaelpressman7203 I have a suicide cable to connect my generator. Procedure is the same as you said. Shut off the main breaker, plug in both ends of the cable, start the generator. My setup has a breaker in the box just for the generator and the generator has it's own breaker. Double protection.
Disclaimer: Don't do this. CYA and all of that stuff.
Working in the equipment service industry, one of the first things suggested was to remove the watch and ring. I saw someone burn their watch band off when they reached behind an alternator, not a pleasant outcome.
Great content, like the commentary.😎👍
Met a fellow who should have known better but managed to get between a ni-cad battery on a helicopter with his wrist watch. No pretty and the watch wasn't working too well either.
“The best part of waking up, is Folgers in your cup.”
That was so 80’s Mr. Ray. That was when Folgers used to sell coffee bricks (coffee bags with all the atmosphere sucked out for guaranteed freshness). Those were the days!!!!
Oh btw; thanks for the throwback Sir.
Hey Ray I live 6 miles from the Cape here in Space Coast Florida, and whenever hurricanes show up 8 out of 10 go right past us. They are just a big big storm to us. good video and good luck with Ian. hope you dodge the bullet.
You are awesome love your humor. And you are an awesome wrench
I installed a new sensor when I changed out my Knox sensors. It blew out on the highway two weeks later. Literally the oil was blowing out the top where the connector was and lost all the oil. Had it towed in and changed it. A week later it stopped working. Those two were from Oriely’s. Bought one from Auto Zone. No more problems since. That happened last year.
A similar situation happen with my jeep Wrangler. Bought two from Oriely’s and went out right a way back to back. Bought a new one from AZ. Still working three years later.
Yet another most excellent video Ray keep up the good work and don't forget to have your self a great day
I replaced the oil pump on my ’05 Silverado. 250K miles. It was clattering at idle and less than 20PSI when running. New oil pump came with 2 springs, regular and high performance. I put the high-performance spring in, had 100PSI+ oil pressure. Bad ideal, blew apart the oil pressure sender. Yea I got to do the oil pump twice with right spring and replace oil pressure sender. Was able to replace the sender w/o taking off the intake. Had the right socket, but man it was a lot of contorting, almost worth it.
Great video as always Ray!! Fingers crossed you don't get too much from the storm; current models have it mostly hugging the west coast heading up to the panhandle, but having lived in Houston a long time I've seen how those things can change direction and get stronger. One of the reasons I'm fine with living up north even if the salt makes fixing cars more of a hassle.
Ray lives right and does right the force is strong within young Ray Walker it shall protect him have a good day
Ray,I hope all of you stay safe in Florida .
Close to half a million subscribers!
I also hope u and family will be ok with the storms that are coming
I've been watching that storm. Please stay safe. Good mechanics are hard to come by. Keep your fam safe to but please safely film it if it does come your way lol. Seriously though, stay safe my friend.
Omg!!! How in the world did you get this put back together !! So many clips and plugs!!!
As I recall on the older Chevy's those oil sensors were right on the side of the block easily accessible good job engineers! We are getting ready for the caine too prayers for all!
Time for some 8mm wobbly bits then the socket goes flying. Bro I about lost it. Had me laughing so hard. 🤣
Seen the hurricane reports, stay safe ray
Need to have rainman merch 😉
After you do a few of those senders with the intake on and get the hand motions down they're really not that bad. Stubby ratchet and wobble extension. Just removing the fuel lines makes it much easier too.
Yeah I’ve never removed the intake
Yup, I've done 2 or 2 without removing the intake.
** 2 or 3 ...
I have some locking extensions from hobo feright. I don't use them daily but after a year I have had no issues with them.
Sometimes you say silly unnecessary things,it makes me laugh,I enjoy your videos and sometimes I learn something new which is always awesome,thanks for the great content.
These cars you work on drive my OCD crazy. They all have a ton of leaves stuck below the windshield, wipers and along the fenders. It's fall here in Virginia and I'm constantly de-leading all my cars.
Great videos Ray!!!! I'm not a car wiz by no means but love watching these videos. I pick up on things to help me at my job (auto parts store). I remember what I've seen and give them that advice. God be with you and your family during these coming storms.
I'm an older lady and love watching these too. He is so intelligent on so many vehicles and repairs.
Hello Ray
Hello Ray
I had the same problem. Bad sender. A real pain to replace.
Way back in the dim dawn of time, I had a customer with a 65 Ford with a 289. His oil pressure relief valve stuck closed. You could rev the engine up and watch the oil filter bulge outward. I was surprised that it didn't blow up the filter or gasket.
Its great to see the Owner of a good shop getting stuck in. Will
Ray I hope you don't mind, but I had to make a custom ring tone for my phone. Now when people call it's you saying doodedoo doo. I chuckle every time. "Good day to you sir " just might end up being my notification.
I'm going have to try that light blinking trick..... Maybe just go for the house main breaker!
Good one Ray Ray ! 😊
The servos in early 2000's Chevys are known to go bad. My 05 Silverado had bad servos. Nice thing is that there are cheap after market servos available that are really easy to replace without having to replace the whole cluster. Changing mine start to finish took about an hour.
Side note: I do have a great picture of a police car in front of me and a red light in front of him with my speedometer pegged.
Even though we were stopped, the pegged speedometer in the photo made it look like me and the cop blew the light doing 120mph.
Stepper motors.
Once again I enjoyed your video.
Stay safe Ray.
