The cap on the "Lizard Lotion applicator" contains the "Lizard Lotion" in the "Lizard Lotion applicator. Without the cap you would have a "Loose Lizard Lotion facial " and thus a bad day. The quote "It puts the lotion on the skin or it gets the hose again" comes to my warped mind. I really need to evaluate my direction in life. Nice catch on the cracked insulators on the plugs. I really enjoy your videos, thanks for all you do.

That ATF raid was too funny!😂

[@John-yf4ie]

That last spark plug reminds me of a neighbor who took his Buick Roadmast Limited to a Dealership to have a tune-up. about 100 miles later he ask me why his his Buick was misfiring. I had an old Snap-on Scanner that is only good up to 2003 vehicles. I'm retired but I picked up on the misfire. Both cylinder 7 & 8 spark plugs had cracks. Hard to get to and just as bad installing them. Luckly I still had my Snap on plug socket. Car ran great afterwards! I'm 74 and don't really tinker with vehicles anymore! Keep up the great work!!!

[@outthereassociates7155]

Parroting the door open chime made me smile. I'd almost forgotten the "Doot - De - Doo" of following the phone ringing in that "other" place.

[@crasher88]

Little tip for you Ray. On the BG cleaning bottle that you were using on the side opposite where the air connector and regulator is a little button you can push to vent the excess pressure left in the bottle after you disconnect the shop air supply. It's hard to spot it looks like part of the hinge for the hanger but it's actually the pressure release vent.

[@josephgolden1868]

Sometime, it would be nice to have you show the cylinders with the bore scope prior to the cleaning procedure, and after, just to see any differences.

[@rick980]

I agree and stated the same thing. I have seen the process a number of years ago before and after with no difference

[@1320Jason]

Rainman, you should’ve bore scoped #8 piston again to show how well the cleaner worked, or didn’t work. Maybe next time. 😎

[@gvet47]

So as far as we know the customer paid for the so called carbon removal and it did nothing. There is a good reason to check the plug resistance.

[@EristiCat]

Installation cracks on plugs would normally would be horizontal near the bottom because when you put the swivel on you push the top of the plug sideways and then it cracks across the bottom of the porcelain. Since these were longitudinal cracks, I suspect these are actually counterfeit plugs that just aren’t made right and when they got hot, the inside of the plug expanded in the porcelain and it cracked that porcelain. It’s the same thing you see in concrete when a rebar rusts and you get those long longitudinal cracks.

[@zeropoint3518]

Yeah that’s what I was thinking bring it started trying to basically peel itself off it’s definitely a pre existing condition

[@EristiCat]

@@MacRODesign55 I broke one plug 40 years ago by letting the socket go sideways with the swivel. I heard it crack but ignored it. An hour later I was replacing it.

One thing ive learned from my tuner, is if your hands get greasy/nasty, wipe it on the white of a plug and easily check it for cracks.

[@onryboy2264]

The only thing that I didn't like about this repair and it wasn't with you Ray, BUT THE CUSTOMER AND THE FUEL LEVEL ON THAT GAGE!!!!

[@Barefootstallion]

Just those extra little touches you do for your customers, Ray, makes you one of those one-of-a-kind mechanics. That nice battery terminal cleaning you did for your customer, is just totally commendable. It has me wishing I lived in Florida, so I could bring my vehicle to you, too.

[@jellybean8196]

Good day ray, would really enjoy to see before and after using the carbon cleaner with a borescope. Would even prove the haters wrong… or prove you wrong but either way would love to see it!

I have removed heads from engines after running a can of GM Top engine cleaner thru it on a hot engine and running 1/2 the can in then letting it sit 30 mins then run last 1/2 thru and test drive it like you stole it. . The intake runners and piston tops were exceptionally clean and any deposits left were soft wan would have clean up with injector spray and air movement after running the engine

[@rick980]

I would love to see that#8 piston after that cleaning procedure. My old mechanic used to use a similar system but he decided to do a looky loo before and after on one of the vehicles and did not see any difference. I would love to see if the products have changed and they actually work.

[@coreywilliams3475]

I second that suggestion

[@MonkeyJedi99]

Immediately after might not be the right time to see how the product works, but perhaps a couple of hundred miles of engine time. If the cleaning was instant or very fast, it could send big flakes and chunks into the exhaust part of the engine, and possibly clogging the catalyst mesh in the converter(s). If the product assists in the slower breakdown of the deposits, it likely prevents causing damage. I don't work in the field, so my statements have a lot of conditionals.

[@zeuswinston5004]

I really want to see #8 piston after cleaning with the genie in a bottle. I would guess you could put water in that mister and would clean it

[@Sir_Uncle_Ned]

I didn’t even think a spark plug could break like the one Dave found!

[@IraCornett]

The number on the spark plug is an interchange number. As a former auto parts store employee, I can tell you that the interchange number works wonders aside from the part number! You can type in the interchange number on the online catalog and it'll pull up multiple brands of the same design spark plug but if you just type in the part number, it'll only pull up those spark plugs alone and sometimes other parts that come close to matching the part number you typed in will pop up!

I can’t remember what creator tested multiple cold air intakes and filters. The test showed that the K&N filters let more dirt through the media than the factory. They also found that most cold air kits allowed 40 or more degree warmer air than the factory boxes.

[@paulcollinson2440]

I have a Kia Cerato (Forte) with a 2l GDI engine and run a can of CRC GDI Valve Cleaner through the fuel system every 6 months. It seems to reallybwork in cleaning the carbon from the back of the valves but despite the instructions I would say the engine needs a longer heat sink for the carbon to devreleased from the valves. When it happens it is like an old James Bond movie when a smoke screen is released from the rear of the car . You can really feel the difference.

[@SOU6900]

😆 you change them in a set, but every time I take our 2016 work truck to the shop for a misfire they just do the one cylinder.

[@printer5518]

Ray I think your videos have gotten much better and more interesting since you opened your own place. More interesting and detailed repairs. Like some of the in depth diagnosing you do that no other person on the planet earth would do, for example the crappy rebuilt engine install you did for the warranty claim. Man I wish I had someone like you here in CT. How great would it be if we could all see a video of the repairs done to our cars. Would definitely weed out the bad apples. Looking forward to more of the same. 👍

[@V.is.for.Vae.Victus]

Never question Ford's parts inventory system. Even they don't understand it. Just remember to keep all original parts for direct comparison, and pray the larger ones still have their paper ID tags from the factory still attached, or you may need a wizard to determine which replacement part you want.

[@DeepakKumar-lv4te]

Ford are equal parts a brilliant and terrible company!

Proud owner of a VW CC 2014 2.0L DSG, 18 moths ago i changed my coil and spark plug and the tip of my coil were full of oil...this engine did'nt have a gasket but a head cover/valve cover seal...so I poured a bottle of AT 205 in the oil. Last week changed my spark plug and surprise surprise no more oil on the tip of the coil and spark plug (will reseal at the timing chain job). BTW amazing transmission the DSG 0-60 in 4 sec, changed the original suspension for Bilstein B-12 wich I highly recommand.

[@jimmeade2976]

In a previous video, Ray said you have to be careful installing spark plugs with a universal on the socket because you can break the porcelain. Looks like the previous mechanic did just that when he replaced the plug on cylinder 8.

The multitude of top end and engine cleaners on the market today never ceases to amaze me. Seems like everyone has something and of course theirs is the best. Takes me back to the 50's when we just used water and a hot engine. Like others have said i too would like to see before and after scope images of the cylinders and valves. Wonder how all the miracle cleaners would stack up against plain old water.

@@davidhamm5626 I don't know, never saw that. But it was common in the 1950's we would rev the engine and drip water into the carb. Basically steam cleaning the cylinders. In the late 40's and early 50's some cars even came with water injection. We used to put alcohol or ether in the water tank.

Love your videos man. What I can see through the camera those were carbon tracks and not cracks. The result is the same, it needs plugs in probably coil boots. Often if the coil boot has a carbon track already in it, The new plugs will end up with carbon tracks in the same locations as the previous ones.

the reason why the spark plug package has 4 part numbers as far as i am aware is 1 number for the spark plug model (on spark plug, on box) 1 number for spark plug model + gap (on box) 1 number for spark plug model + gap single pack (on box) 1 number for spark plug model + gap 4 pack (on box) also about that spray canister disconnect the shop air wait till the pressure is out then close the out valve and you will always be ready to add new fluid

Don’t use a universal joint to install a spark plug. You’re going to side-load the plug. It doesn’t matter how good you think you are, because how do you know you didn’t put a side-load on the plugs? The back cylinders are the most vulnerable. Use a piece of 3/8” fuel line like a pro would, and then apply final torque.
