I always carry some good info away when I watch your videos. Thanks for taking the time to share your experience.
It is always someones hack job that is the problem why do people work on things they no nothing about ,can't fix lazy or stupid 😂
Excellent investigation, explanation and demonstration. Way to go Kenny !!!!!!
@WrenchingWithKenny- great info and job as always. Thank You for sharing.
I am new to your channel and I find your down to earth repairs inspiring. Thanks.
Thank you for the kind words !! I appreciate you watching !! Keep Wrenching !!
Kenny, you never seem to sweat. Yet, we know you are doing some very big jobs.
Thanks for the videos. I also like to use the marine (with glue) heat shrink. I put at least 1/2” past each butt joint. And I like to put a larger shrink tube over both wires and staggered butt joints. The spark plug with the groves on it that you can feel with your finger nail is from the high voltage electrons traveling outside the spark plug to ground cutting the ceramic portion instead of running through the spark plug in the engine. Thanks again for your videos! Phil
I think he mentioned carbon tracking, which you have just described.
Great job, good to know information.
😉✅👍
Great stuff Kenny !
Now I know it doesn't fit in your pocket but a barbecue lighter will give you a much needed extension for melting shrink tubes ! 😊
Always interesting, great information
Thanks for the info 👍. As always stuff you need to know.
Good stuff Kenny bugared up is putting it lightly lol if you’re gonna fix it do it right the first time I’m a stickler on maintenance have 04 ranger 2.3 manual transmission 477,000 miles on it an never did anything to motor except maintenance replaced clutch etc at 400,000 miles if you maintain your vehicle you can get alot of miles out of them keep the videos coming really enjoy them 👍👍👍👍👍
You are my first video I go to ! On the Tube ... thanks for doing it your way and right
Nice information video. Thank you. 🔧
I just replaced a connector on my ram. The clip was broken, so I just pushed the pins out and put a new connector in. I love watching the videos they are very educational.
Proof AGAIN a very careful visual before moving things around can be well worth a minute or so. That marine ? grade heat shrink is the best way to go IMO. ANOTHER good video.👍👍
I couldn't agree more, marine grade heat shrink is the ONLY way to go if it's on a vehicle. Stuff that is used inside maybe not so much.
Yeah never know what your gonna find great content.
Hey Kenny. If the coil has a magnet in it which can be checked with an other magnet outside of the coil, you will have to observe the stock wiring polarity as a reversed wiring polarity to the coil will reduce spark energy instead of boosting the energy! The coils used in some Ford cars used a magnet inside the coil body to increase spark energy.
I use the heat shrink butt connectors for weatherproof connections cost more but worth it
Nice Diag.!!
Have you ever tried solder stick wire connectors? They create a soldered and watertight join in one go. You don't nned to solder but it doesn't hurt to do either, especially when it's as easy to do as a non soldered join.
Ken, your repair will work I'm sure.
Staggering the splice locations and western union splicing is the detail often overlooked. This method completely eliminates any chance of accidental contact.
Hope this helps ... I've had butt splices fail.
I just used hot glue lol I didn’t have the fancy heat shrink.
👍😎👍
What about putting die electrical grease on the sides of spark ugs ..so next guy can get boots off..without ripping it apart ..??
Any time you do plugs on these engines, change all the coil boots as well. Over time the rubber gets soft and weak from engine heat and can cause voltage leak through. Best to use Motorcraft plugs too, these engines are picky for that.
It just amazes me how folks can make such lousy repairs and don't understand why they don't last. I guess that's one of the things that keeps you in business. Personally when I buy a used vehicle one of the thing I inspect very closely is the wiring. If it's been cut into I almost always pass. Keep the good stuff coming.
I quit smoking, just over 3 years ago, and ALWAYS have at least one lighter readily available!
It is a good idea to stagger the connections when you are doing 2 or more wires. Wire polarity may have an impact - there can be a diode (or something else) in circuit to damp back emf spike. Would not likely show an issue short term but could potentially blow the coil long term. Please note I do not know if these have have any protection circuit, but is fairly common with coil circuits.
Ford's have issues with the coil connectors I've had quite a few just snap the lock off just by pushing it in.Also I've found a lot of loose spark plugs on 4.6 snd. 5.4 engines.
11:35.. Ouch, I guess I was wrong all these years by putting a small of amount anti-seize compound on porcelain spark plug now learning from this video that it might cause electrical tracking causing misfire / rough idle....
I have run into this. Anti Seize conducts electricity and definitely will cause carbon tracking on the porcelain spark plug insulator. It also destroys the boot which gets carbon tracked as well. What I don't understand is why the carbon track appears under the last boot I pull off which is usually in the most inconvenient spot!
Ahhh the never ending argument on wire repair .
Any repairs are only as good as the person making them .
This was a proper repair for certain.
I've seen just as many crappy solder as well as crimp connections.
Whatever you choose to do , do it right.
On that connector, would the discoloration be from arching ?
Once I saw the tin plating burned off that terminal pin, I knew it had to be either overcurrent or arcking (it was arcking, from not being seated properly in its mating contact). The owner was lucky that a control transistor wasn't knocked out. 😒
If they had put a dab of dielectric grease inside the plug boots it would help prevent sticking and moisture aS well.
If you ever purchased an aftermarket gas cap always keep the original on chrysler cars, because you'll get a GASCAP message on the odometer periodically. All you have to do to clear this out is to replace with the original gas cap that came with the car, drive for a few miles, then replace your aftermarket gas cap back on.
Are those flame thrower coils any good? I’ve been replacing brand new Edlebrock coils with 20 yr old motorcrafts. OEM is the way to go as far as I can tell.
Sorry for jumping in with an unrelated question I've been searching for hours and need help. Searching for information on my driver's side window 2008 sebring. It is not recognizing that the door is open which causes the radio and window switch to still be working. These would normally be operable for 5 minutes with door closed. The window however on the convertible is supposed to be down slightly and then close completely after door is shut. Has anyone had this happen? I've tried the up down reset with no luck. I would really appreciate some insight.
Send that rain to AZ
You forgot to say what you did to fix the coil bolt down.
Where the screw was.
Not harping . Just curious if you had to tap it.
Thank goodness, I thought you said if you drink whiskey and coke stop. Scared the crap out a me.
i have a 96 xj and the temp gauge didnt work. pre 97 the temp gauge sensor is on the back of the head. so i went to change it and there is no sensor there so it is a 97+ head so i had to drill a hole in the thermostat housing to put the sensor. when buying a use vechicle never know what you are getting
What can happen with a cap off egr
Would you ever spray a dirty boot with electrical contact cleaner?
Autolite plugs are terrible. I always go OEM and if customer cannot afford I use NGK at mininum. I have fixed so many vehicles by changing the plugs which were Autolite
my garage is the parking lot
Whe you see that all you can say is "Dude!!??..."
Ram shackled lmao
I just quit today and I'm struggling you just gave me some more power not to.
Smoke
I quit 18 years ago. I told myself there is only one cigarette that I can do without. That is the first one. Good luck with your journey, you wont be sorry for quitting.
The reason that factories do not solder is because it is not cost efficient. They already have a harness going from point A to point B during the manufacturing process. No need for it.
Why wouldn't you solder any wire
Solder joints break.
@@nortoncmd2681 I've seen plenty of non solder joints broken
You must live at shade tree mechanic capital of the world
Your logic for problem solving is straight forward and you definitely are not a parts chaser.
great trouble shooting kenny
11:12 - the biggest problem with that plug is it's an Autolite. Always use genuine Motorcraft on these Fords.
