I enjoyed your video and the banter. But I’m scared to try this myself.
I’ve taken my van to two separate mechanics and got two separate
diagnostics with two completely different results except for the EGR valve.
Now I’m nobody’s mechanic but I’m willing to try. On a five star scale with
5 being the hardest. How hard is this job, because I can’t seem to trust
either mechanic or their computers to tell me the full truth of what’s
wrong. Also, do you have any fixes for the ABS light being on. If so can
you post the link when you comment.
This was a great help. I just got code p0405 in my 2001 Monte Carlo and
these engines are in the same family of course so all that should be the
same.
<.< dude, Mr. Brian I hope you know how much help your videos are. I work
at Advance, and we get this code and this problem a lot. It's great to know
a little bit more about problem in general. I hate to have to sell parts my
customers don't need.
Another very classy video, with a clear message that we all heard, check
your connections. Experience will often make diagnostics faster, because
you’ve seen a similar problem before. But it can also be a trap because you
can initially miss a more unusual diagnosis.
Putting a fan feed pulling as much as 15A under load together with other
wires is a REALLY poor idea, you wouldn’t see that on a Volvo 850 or V70
(though there is bad stuff on Volvos that Chevy wouldn’t do) Guess it evens
out….
That’s up to you. A quote is a negotiation between parties. If it’s a
manual trans and they’re doing new clutch components that could be a really
good deal.
Hi Brian; Just wanted to say I beleive your instructional videos are
excellent!! Saw this Chevy Venture one and one on the ford windstar coolant
leaky pipe off the water pump. I’ve fixed my own cars since I was 16 (now
almost 40 yrs later; still fixing things). Your work is inspirational! Many
thanks and love your work!
brian thanks for doing theses videos everyday i go on youtube to see what
new videos you posted keep these wiring videos coming i learn from them
thanks for doing this
Hey my man great vid, im watching ur videos here in Canada and its going to
be winter soon couple months or so could you possibly make a video on how
to get your car ready for the cold winter weather? Thanks and great work on
the vids
Hey brian in your next video, can you stand under the disco ball and twirl
around? I wanna see which gives the better reflection…LMAO Also the green
laser pointer gives to much reflection, Maybe try a IR type LED as a
pointer it should give better camera light. Maybe not as much glare.
I have a 2003 venture and it had the head gasket under warranty and the
over torqued the bolts and now after paying to replace the front 3 bolts
now one in the back will cost me double as you can not get to that part of
the engine with out pulling the engine . It is sitting in my drive way now
for 5 months as I am a disabled VET and do not have the money and I can not
fix it myself . I also had a 91 camry but was rear ended putting the trunk
in the back seat thak god no kids in car I hate chevy

I LIKE the Ron Paul poster.

I hear ya! I could have benefited from wiggle testing this one.

Well thank you very much!

it wont hurt anything ..most likely won’t help..unless it is just a dried
out seal,,and the Lucus helps it swell..but if it is torn ..won’t help ..

I have some on my Aluminum spool gun review and on my five part series
Dodge Winch Bumper.
I couldn’t take the humidity- allergies you know.
MORE RON PAUL PLEASE! =)
Great job!
Good for you man!
Thank you!
Thanks Brian
Thanks man- with that many miles it was due for an EGR valve anyway.
Have an 01 ford ranger xlt 4×4 gettin charged $650 for rear main seal. Too
much?
I don’t recommend any additives. They wind up doing more harm than good.
There SHOULD be some TPS or MAF codes with that.
Is this intended to be a reply to someone else? I don’t associate the
two…
