Hi from Scotland, thank you for the informative video, I've a 1.8 with a bit of a thirst for oil. I'm going to proceed with doing what you've done in the hope that the oil consumption will reduce somewhat, may I ask why you did this procedure?
@ranger.auto.repair
@ranger.auto.repair 2 күн бұрын
Well hello!!! I did this procedure because Ford service says that the PCV valve must be changed every 100,000 miles in order for the vehicle to comply with US emissions regulations because the PCV valve will build up with oil and carbon and will stop working and that will cause engine issues such as unusual oil consumption and higher tailpipe emissions. I hope this helps you out! Please come back and let me know!

@@ranger.auto.repair Hi and thanks for your reply, my car was poorly maintained and is on 140k miles, it still pulls well so I don't think it's the piston rings but I imagine a faulty pcv valve will play havoc with the crankcase pressure and possibly force oil under pressure UP past the piston rings to be burnt.

So 24 is calibration of the speedometer? No sensors to be replaced?
@ranger.auto.repair
@ranger.auto.repair 2 күн бұрын
Code 24 is Vehicle Speed Sensor error, usually happens when the wrong size tires are used on a vehicle. This sensor is used on determining when to shift the electronic transmission. If this code is present on its own, check tire size and if it’s correct then replace the vehicle speed sensor. If the code is with other codes, repair the other codes first.

I have the same model and it suddenly won't turn left anymore. It will go right. The bucket works fine as well. I set the bucket down and lifted it up so that the front wheels were off the ground and tried to turn it then as well. Same results, fine going right, but not left. Any thoughts on where to check? I have read that the valve gets off centered sometimes and that could cause steering issues.
@ranger.auto.repair
@ranger.auto.repair 6 күн бұрын
Make sure your hydraulic pump is full, just because it will move the bucket doesn’t mean it has enough to steer, check for any obstructions around the knuckle, sometimes a rock will get lodged in there and can cause it to not want to turn, you could try tapping on the valves to get them unstuck, that’s about all I can think of, I had mine stick to one direction when I got it and it turned out to be low on fluid, and I also had a huge air pocket trapped in the steering ram.

Great vid!! It's a crazy job. Updated GM technical service bulletin does call for 1/4" bead of silicone (part# GM12346286/Permatex "right stuff") all the way around on both sides of gasket because of stamping inconsistencies on the pans. Or the RTV on 4 corners has still worked for some people who have the updated blue gasket/windage tray.

I tried it both ways because the job was done twice, I saw where a guy did this job 14 times on the same car, so I was trying to get this job done twice (once would’ve been preferable) and the new felpro gasket says no RTV except on the corners, so I tried it the first time per GM service information and it didn’t work, found the pan was bent, got a new pan and did it felpros way and it worked until every other place on the engine started leaking.. I hated that job!! Thanks for the feedback!!

(2003 kia rio 1.6L and original mando 80 amp alternator)....I finally got around to doing the alternator, change out just as in the video, had to force the alternator past the AC aluminum line as mentioned, both ways, no biggy. I had troubles putting on new belts, where I struggled to get the alternator belt on and the power steering belt I had to remove the tensioner assembly to get the new belt on then reinstalled of course,...likely should have not installed the tensioner assembly for the alternator before belt was put on too. No room to really get my hands in there,...but I have smaller hands and I really should have done alot of things with the front motor mount still disconnected,...just the horizontal bolt and nut and not the two top nuts,....should have did alot more with the engine jacked up as far as I could get it.....I had the car on plastic car ramps on the front wheels,...used harbor freight high lift jack with some pieces of wood on the saddle to push up the engine on the oil pan,...that way I could later get underneath to put in the pivot bolt,...used a allen L wrench instead of a piece of brake line as mentioned in the video. Alternator was of course an o'reilly's bought that was tested before I paid for the new rebuilt mando...and alternator of course charges fine all installed. I discovered the older alternator belt was really cracked up and bad and the older alternator a person can hear the rear bearing rubbing it seems I almost consider rebuilding it an making some sort of project out of it like a wind mill battery charger instead of getting my $40 core charge, but likely will get my core charge back, that would be a cool project though if I ever did one. I don't know if there was actually a difference in a kia or mando alternator, I really doubt there as much difference,....the new rebuilt alternator has no markings or tag on it denoting mando 80,.....so there was likely no difference most likely,....seems like mandos were made in Malaysia for kia, thats all from what I see on the original alternator.

When I fixed it the same thing I changed high-pressure sensor and then drove it and it would die and then it gave me the 0172 code which is the rich code to fix that you have to change the upstream oxygen sensor if you do that you also have to change the downstream oxygen sensor because then you’ll end up getting a lean code which is the 0171 code After I did that it ran fine. You might have to do a relearn on the fuel system, but I can’t remember if I had to do that on the one I worked on or not. One other thing you need to do is with the key off let the fuel rail pressure off through the Schrader valve and then turn it on for one minute and then turn the key off. Let the pressure off again and then try to start it I found it worked on the one I worked on.

The only thing you wanna do with the throttlebody is clean it. You do that by turning the key on engine off. Find something to put on the gas pedal to hold it to the floor that will open up the flap on the throttle body use a nylon bristle brush like a toothbrush and throttle body cleaner not brake clean, you can clean the throttle body and then when you’re done, take the object off the gas pedal and then turn the key off and back on and then start it, as far as the 0191 it may clear on its own or you may have to force clear it with a scan tool.

The proportioning valve is easy to clean with brake parts cleaner, you can take each circuit apart individually and clean them. There are rubber seals inside that may fail and if that’s what’s happened then you’ll have to replace it. If your Kia is like mine then the part I referenced in the video will work.
