Good honest people who got treated right by Parker. $35.00 and they are back on the road. We've seen ALOT of Dodge Chargers on this channel and most seem to have cooling system issues. I'm happy for these people.
The best part is that you gave it to him straight on how to take care of the bleeding in the future. That is worth much more than the repair itself. Enjoying your videos
It's good to witness an honest mechanic at work. The dishonest guys would've had that fella swopout his water pump, change hoses, you name it, just to bleed more money out of the situation for themselves unnecessarily at his expense, overall, for parts and labor. You're work ethic is amazing bro. Blessings to you from above on your business and your family and friends.
You are salt of the earth Matt. You truly make me wanna just be KIND to humanity. S/O to this customer too, he wanted to learn and understand. We all can appreciate that.
@JimmyJones-fe3fw he got another customer that will call him again , customers who they recommend him to and onto of that his fan base on social media is growing and many will pay for content... he is the only person I pay to see and I live in Australia ... he has money coming in world wide lol
He does well on all platforms established reputation will pay dividends and he sees far past the dollar sign thats why he is the best in the business. I guarantee his profitability will skyrocket as his audience increases.
I remember when my grandfather replaced the radiator in his 2005 model Holden VZ Commodore & it overheated to the point that the cooling fans remained turned on while the engine was turned off in a car park. It runs the GM- Holden 3.6 litre LY7 (Alloytec) V6 engine & they have to be bled by allowing the thermostat to open up to properly bleed the cooling system ,his still had air in it but I used Holdens cooling system bleeding procedure to bleed it, note that I am talking about Australian built GM cars here. I had an issue 18 months ago when my 5.7 litre Holden VY SS Commodore which runs the LS1 V8 engine boiled over on a hot & stinky summers day, apparently the cooling system had an air pocket in it & what I didn't do is to allow the cooling fans to kick in prior to switching the engine off. The radiator fans turned on when my car was sitting at the auto parts store & the engine wasn't running, it's a failsafe circuit which will allow the radiator fans to turn on while the engine isn't running as well to protect the engine !
Well if you were RECORDING your work then you can charge his prices because he's making probably made easily over 1k off this video with over 100k+ views. He can simply do all his vids at this point for free & get ten times the amount he would get charging regular prices just off his views alone. It's good that he's charging a low price because he knows that will just draw in more customers while continue to grow his channel, while making a ton of money off all his vids.
Ummm...?? No, the coolant cycles the other way around Matt. Hot coolant comes out of the engine from the thermostat and into the top of the radiator. Then the coolant flows downwards through the radiator and gets cooled. The cooler coolant then exits the radiator from the bottom of the radiator via the bottom hose and is drawn into the water pump to be circulated back around the engine to remove heat, then it goes back out past the thermostat through the top hose to the top of radiator, then the cycle repeats. Remember back in science class, hot things rise and cooler things fall?🤣
@@notacommie5415 So far as you know it's fixed, although we don't know if it had more serious underlying issues, since he only ran it at idle and didn't test drive it to put the cooling system under actual load in a real world situation. After all, it is a Chrysler, Jeep, Dodge, Ram, Plymouth, Fiat, Mercedes, Mopar P.O.S so any number of things could be go wrong with it at any second🤣👍 But my actual point was, he shouldn't try to explain how something works to a customer if he doesn't know how it actually works himself.
Like my wife's car. She pulled in the driveway with smoke coming out of the hood like it was on fire leaving a trail of oil behind her. I popped the hood and the bottom of engine was soaked in oil dripping everywhere. My stomach dropped. I thought I was in for a nightmare but after further inspection it was the oil inlet for the turbo. Cost me 25 bucks and 10 minutes to fix.
@@WilL-lt7zv You do realize he's also getting PAID from these vids right? No need to be greedy & charge whatever the regular price is when he already made TEN TIMES more than $35 just off this video.
And he would do two to three cars before u get your 50! Stop pocket watching dude! It’s good people in life who’s not out to break people wallets because of greed u know that right? Smh
Coolant flows the other way boss. Definitely need to drive vehicle with T-stat installed to properly diagnose You're gonna love the van, I have the Chevy p30. Be safe!
With it running at 186-192 it sounds like he has a ripp 180 thermostat. Thats what I have in my 2017 charger pursuit and I run those exact temps. OEM t-stat it was running 208-218
Its running those temps but eventually youll heat soak the water. With the center popped out it wil restrict the flow and let the water cool some but eventually it will all get hot and overheat on hot days, under a load, or in traffic. I bet it has check engine light cause the pcm monitors engine temp and how long it takes to get there. If you remove the thermostat or change the way it cools like having the center popped out, you should have a programmer to change those settings. Is it gonna run and stay cool, maybe but you will still have issues. In the winter you wont have heat.. fix it right, Put a new thermostat in..
My 2014 Durango with Pentistar started to overheat. Changed thermostat and still overheated. Did a full cooling system, Tstat, waterpump and radiator. Still overheated! Bled it many times and still overhetaed! So I took the old Tstat and took the center apart and filled it up and bled it. Guess what! It hasn't overheated since then. Now I have a code for engine temp below oper temp. Dealership told me those aftermarket units always fail or dont work properly. Because of the check engine light throwing that code, my remote start turns off after 10-15 seconds after starting.
Even though he charges cheap, the dude has a heart those in desperate situations. Good karma will come to you my friend, and through YT and othee platforms i also hope it helps support you angoyoue family❤ Wish you the best 👌
Everybody is cheering for the USD 35 diagnostic. With that price and 4 diagnosis per day, 20 work days per month he would make USD 2800 (before expenses: car depreciation, gas, maintenance, tools, ...) He is loosing money.
Not that it’s any of our business but Parker probably makes it up in yt & tiktok views. If not yet he’s trying to get to where it does. Anyway, quit counting his money and just enjoy his good deeds.
as a person that owns a construction company I really feel bad for this guy that does the work with 35 dollars that probable took him an hour or less that man could run out of business real fast. I get being a good person but man he should charge more he's gotta look at he's operational expense.
These 3.6L's need to be bled any time the cooling system is messed with. Smoked two different deer with my Grand Cherokee within a month, both requiring radiators......dealership didn't bleed the system off and had to turn around both times, not even an eighth of a mile down the road.
🤣🤣 i called u a couple months back my heater core t split wore off n dumped my coolant, replaced it n didn’t purge it either 🤦🏽♂️ we had discussed a head gasket but luckily i was lucky also 🫡
I know you want to be a good guy but you have to have at least a 50$ min thats still a good deal for them and your company. It was hard for me to but now i have a 100$ min and its still fair for both parties. Don't short your company.
Only $35.00? How in the heck do you stay in Business? It must cost you at least that amount in fuel. I really think you are under selling yourself. Crap I live in Canada and just starting your truck would cost that here. Lol it is not that bad but close.

Had no idea T Grizzly was in Okc now damn. Respect.

Great work!!!!
I probably would have driven it just to verify, sometimes it will only overheat when driven
You are awesome
That would’ve been $275 if any of these so-called mechanics came out and acted like they were gods gift to the customer
Shade tree mechanics probably ticked off they wasn't there.
Sometimes when the system hydro-locks it'll come and go. You end up with sporadic overheating.
Until it starts to overheat under heavy load or heavy traffic. Not hating, just sometimes 💩 happens when quick diagnosing.
Some cars overheat and its the gasket gone you really have to bleed system correctly...
I didn't see but were there absorbent mats under the car to collect that coolant?
😂😂😂
a lot of people over look the bleeder or just don’t know how to properly bleed air from it.
Good job buddy like always love the tool truck..💯✌️

That car looks nice and clean on the outside and the engine bay looks like 💩
Only $35 wow, I figured you would have a minimum fee for having to go out. Unless that is your minimum fee. If so that is quite low.
I thought that was David Lucas on the thumbnail 😂
Hey I got a work light to haha 😎
I don't believe it could be improper bleeding because the car first had overheating problems before they replaced the thermostat?!
thermostats do go bad though, so thermostat could have failed, and then the mecahinc failed at bleeding the system
Only $35.00? How in the heck do you stay in Business? It must cost you at least that amount in fuel. I really think you are under selling yourself. Crap I live in Canada and just starting your truck would cost that here. Lol it is not that bad but close.
But the old thermostat is back in it why did it overheat to begin with probably smashing the aircon may have got low on coolant
