If that dude was losing air in 3 tires he probably filled up at several places over the last month. Some folks just want to blame someone for their issues.
That guy with the rims is an idiot . One word selfish
Tweakage? I've got to use it
I get accused of 'Bad Hair' but not bad air in my compressor!
Think of all the kids who pump up their bike tyres who are grateful for you free air….
Eric, the guy who said you had bad air, I bet I know how he voted.
Solid Repair!
Eric this guy was probably told by the body shop that moisture in air hose is what caused his rims to rust, so he figured your shop is where he gets his air so he thinks your to blame, i don't know how long it takes rims to rust out but i can say at-least more than 12 years or more.
You should have asked the guy when he last changed the wheel rim fluid!
You need to put up a sign… Free Air. Use at your own risk!
"faulty air in your air compressor"; the accuser must be a member of "antifa"…ignorance brought to fruition.
what do you have ….ACID in your air like acid rain was back in the 60's? He was just trying to get you to go half on tires and sweet rims…yea right… Take a hike ike and yea like he said the good air is next store
South Main Auto Repair how much would you charge to diagnose a old s10 blazer it is obd1 94 model, it is a winter beater seems like it is fuel cutting
If anyone can put a tool too the test it would be Erick o
i would be worry of p0420 cat code did it happen
hope you told him to "GO FORTH AND MULTIPLY" chancing bastard what does he want for free air..
You can get bad air from too many beans…but I think that would eat the corrosion on the wheels. Just sayin, ya know. You really should have at least refunded his purchase! Maybe the air at the laundromat has too much soap or bleach in it. Just a quick question. .. where do you buy your air from, do you trust your supplier? Maybe strap on has a meter he can sell you that will check the air every morning. You better post a sign warning the public that the free air is lesser quality than the air across the street.
Eric, on the 'cheap' roll discs I just pop a drop of the 'ol Loctite 406 on the back & they're good to go! I've had them fly off down the driveway at a gabillion miles an hour!
Eric, you know you get A-HOLES like that. You ought to say "Not responsible for FREE AIR!!!"
Heres a link to the HF 1/2" earthquake impact driver and current 49 reviews are very good – its a hefty $249.00 — you can wait for a sale but I don't think HF will accept their 20% – 25% off coupons on power tools. Sure looks like the 3/8" one is worth its price – if it holds up-> https://www.harborfreight.com/20v-max-lithium-12-in-cordless-xtreme-torque-impact-wrench-kit-63537.html
Had to go back and look you just showed the earthquake on the Subaru ball joint video which I had watched, damn im getting ole, memory sucks-! I think the electrical odor may be the brushes breaking in / seating on the commutator bars. Hopefully that's all it is- If anyone can find its weaknesses its you, tools get no mercy in your shop-lol
Eric – Great video very helpful. I did tons of exhaust work when I was still working back in the ancient 80's, ah the memories, lots of 60's and 70's cars and trucks & no electronics, no stainless steel systems then, mostly mild steel that you were lucky to get five years out of, we did seemingly endless exhaust work. As you are the guy today people go to for fuel injection and electronic trouble shooting, I was one of the guys people came to for the then seemingly dark art of carburetor work- little did we know then how complex things would later become-lol – now for me the new car electronics are the mysterious dark art. Also I must have missed the video when you picked up a HF earthquake power tool-!!?? Im old maybe I forgot – I live very close to a Harbor Freight, and it draws people like flies. I do have some stuff from there, but let me tell anyone who wants to shop there, most of the stuff is home use grade at best, some not even that good with the design, quality of steel and assembly always in question, but there are some good buys if you know the ropes. its the kind of place you HAVE to read the reviews, you HAVE to carefully inspect and pick and choose, and you HAVE to keep the receipt if you expect any chance of a return, except for the "pro-grade" ratchets and such. There are a few genuine good deals to be had, depends on what youre looking at. The minute you enter the door it smells like China, or at least the boat that came from China-lol Some things are a no brainer, decent floor jacks and jack stands, useful trinkets like magnetic parts trays, small flashlights, small tarps and such are often free with any purchase no matter how cheap the purchase. At a friends suggestion I bought their eight piece #94607 "professional" $9.99 screwdriver set for $7.99 after a 20% off coupon (I almost never buy without a discount coupon) and I also bought the few additional sizes they offer separately in this line, & ive used the crap out of them with no problems yet, the steel tips are much better than I expected – and my friend has had his set for a couple years and still holding up well – but its a gem among the fray, not all are this good – or even half this good. Sorry about this long diatribe, but being surprised at seeing you with one of their earthquake impact wrenches I was shocked into this babbling session-lol. If you check out "Ave"'s channel, he takes all kinds of power tools completely apart to see how well they are made and I think one of these earthquakes was one of his most recent reviews. As always love your videos Eric, have you ever had a chance yet to use that 3lb. hand sledge I sent awhile back-? Surely you'll break it in on something-! LOL
Shave and a hair cut…..two bits
you'll be hearing from my lawyer. Selling rusty air. What a friggin dope. A guy wanted me to pave his driveway when one of my guys used it to turn his truck around. Offered to fight him for it. He refused.
Yeah, the air is grungy and the bathroom's not too clean either.
So, now you have crappy shop air to match your crappy shop videos. Pin it, Penelope.
Your air BLOWS man ,, 😉
Bad air? What did you do fart in his tires? Lol
Eric,
Always remember ;
Free is worth what you pay for it!!!!!
We charge by the pound for fresh air. But used air is free! PS.. Did I miss something or did the new one not need the heat shield?
