The fact that most problems that I have researched and videos that I have watched, have mentioned the knowledge that this man took so much time out of his life just to help others on how to diagnose, and repair these diesels is amazing. It is the simple fact that people like him make owning these diesels possible without breaking the bank. Manufacturers these days want you to spend your hard earned money on these common problems that should actually be recalls. People all over the united states have been educated and have noted that they learned something from Ron. It is sad and as I have written this post I have welled up with tears because he is in heaven now. This world we live in needs more people like Ron. He is gone but in a better place, and he's still to this day teaching people. I wish I could have been a friend or even met this down to earth gentleman. RIP Ron, you're truly truly missed by so many, and my heart goes out to his family because they were so blessed to have him in there lives. God bless you Ron and the family.

Phillip you're exactly right! When I found Ron's channel I was excited beyond words. I had only watched maybe three of his videos only to find out that he was killed only two days prior, my excitement turned to tears and I didn't even know of him. I've been watching and learning and he has educated me on diesel mechanics in so many ways, I'm forever grateful and thankful. To Ron's family, Thank you for leaving up his videos and Thank you for sharing such a wonderful man with us, God Bless you all ❤

I tow a small pup camber with it, about 2900 lbs, this Equinox's limit for towing is 3000 lbs (with electric brakes on camper). So I am close to the limit and worry what may happen to the transmission, so I monitor the transmission's temperature sensor when towing. Recently I messed up something in the app and wasn't getting the temperature readings correctly. Now it's fixed. Your video clarifies everything for me, again. Thank you.

My other curiosity is if they have ELM327 bidirectional read/writters/flashers...like you can actually open vents , turn on compressors , turn on fans ,...etc as well as flash new wireless key codes to BCM , change engine performance values etc... :)

Hey Ron I have a question for you sir. I have 2003 a Ford F250 Super Duty 6.0 that has been having some issues of late. I get a good 15-1HR drive out of her when suddenly she starts loosing power and speed. It gets to the point where the whole truck starts to shake and finally gives out. After about 15Mins she'll turn right back on and do the same thing over again. I watched your videos about the Fuel Restriction that could be happening in the Fuel tank. I removed the Fuel Pump and no filter at the end! After a quick swim in the tank I pulled the filter out in pieces and headed over to Ford and purchased a new one. Now everything has been put back on and she starts up Beautifully but agian I get about 15-30Mins of solid power. My question is: Will this fix itself after a couple of runs or should I start looking elsewhere for the issue? Now this whole stopping and starting has been going on for a little over 1 year who knows how long the filter has been broken.... Thank you for your time! :)
@keayrhyasen30717 жыл бұрын
this sounds like a clogged fuel filter. happened to me with a brand new '97 Freightliner. fought it going across country until i put .25 cents of diesel in a new filter and swapped it out with the factory one. ran fine after that. the only other thing is there is something else floating around in your fuel tank that you didn't see. something that will get sucked down and block the inlets and when the truck shuts off and the siphon releases, it floats back up and away. THAT was another frustrating experience i had at a different job. Note to Mechanics: when you toss dye tablets into the tanks, please remove the plastic wrapping first. otherwise, they just float around inside the fuel cell.... grrr

+DieselTechRon I also bought a obdlink mx wifi it's on it's way to me. I believe there is a need for more than one scan tool. Maybe you can do that too! You've been a tremendous asset to me!!

my smartphone is not activated, but has bluetooth, do I have to be connected while running the diagnostics, I can download the app from wifi
@chrissims6046 жыл бұрын
shouldnt have to be connected once you have the pp your phone will communicate the software and both will communicate to the OBDII Reader

Once you have the app installed and configured to your liking, no internet connection is necessary.

You only need a connection to download the app and or update the apps software nothing else is needed for internet or wifi beyond that.

Bluetooth for Android. obdlink is a, good one but expensive. you can get a lot cheaper units but they glitch. I'm trying to find some that are stable. I'm testing some now.
