An honest mechanic. You could have charged the customer but you choose to do the right thing instead. That is what makes life time customers that recommend you to everyone. I wish I could have found an honest, competant mechanic before I paid $5600 for maintenance and repairs on an 09 Odyssey that cosy me $4,700. I'm still having problems with shop that did the work. All this after dealer stripped oil pan plug

[@kenbertram3764]

I had just replaced my battery and noticed the idle was high. Thought it was a coincidence until I saw your video. I went back and found the cable to the cruise control you mentioned was wedged against the corner of the battery, making it slightly tighter than it should be. I slide it off and the idle is back to normal. Really appreciate you making this video!

[@billyyoder8171]

Thank you Oz. Have a blessed and safe week to you and your family.

[@ADVANCEDLEVELAUTO]

Even after finding the problem and adjusting the cable, most shops would have changed the idle air control valve anyway. Just to charge the customer for something. Good stuff bro!

[@Zerohvx1]

Thank You! I highly appreciate this I'm having the same issue on my Honda Accord Ex 04. Initially I was having the p0507 code error which I've recently changed the idle air control valve, the map sensor, pcv valve, and the engine air filter by myself and cleaned the insides of the metal round piece which connects to the air intake hose while the battery is disconnected which fixed my error now I'm hoping I just have to readjust the long metal piece like within the video to fix the high idle when the car starts up.

You're vids are lifesavers. I appreciate you taking the time to post them. My son just bought a 2007 Civic Lx 2 dr with the 1.8 4 cyl. 5 Sp manual. While cruising 60mph in 5th gear, it's turning about 3000 RPMs and seems like it needs a 6th gear. Is that normal for this car? Drives me crazy since all other vehicles I've been in have cruising RPMs about 2100 at 60mph

I have a similar problem with my 4.6 Ford explorer but it only high idles when the engine is warmed up, I've changed the idle air control valve twice now and for a little while it ran normal then started again and after the second idle air control valve today no change, nothing is sticking and even cleaned the throttle body but no change

Am I experiencing the same issue? Is the computer registering for it to idle higher than it should from throttle screws needing an adjustment?

I got a 2006 acura tl. No codes. Rpm respond when applying the gas pedal. Speedometer doesn't want to go pass 30 mph. Struggled going up hill/ downhill. But after turning off engine and restarting car acts normal but after a few second it acts up again. I feel like it's transmission issues. But some say it could be your accelerator pedal position sensor causing all that symptoms. Let me know what's your thoughts. Greatly appreciate 😊

So I changed my spark plugs the other day and had to remove the throttle body and etc on my 08 mercury mariner , once I started my car again the rpm was crazy high so is it maybe because I touched the cruise control cable without knowing ?

I have a 2019 Kia forte ex. My car all of a sudden runs just under 2000 rpms at 100kmh and when i use cruise control it runs 2600/2700 rpms. Can a faulty spark plug cause that?

I’ve got a 2005 Honda Accord that’s revving high and sounds kinda rough but it hasn’t been started in a year, unfortunately the gas tank is full so if bad gas is a problem that’s a lot to take out. But no check engine light, but the brake lights on when it’s not… and there’s a red light right below the brake light. I think the previous owner installed some audio stuff and when they took it out it killed the audio inside the car and there was a hole in the roof to boot.

[@cowboybobby27]

Okay when I'm hitting the gas it will go all the way up to 2000 RPMs and then when I let off the gas and tap the break it goes back down to 1000 rpms and then it stays like that until I stop and hit the gas again could that be because of the winding noise I am getting from the tension pulley

I am having a similar problem with my 97 honda civic the wiper lever has been going a little rogue for about a year now... and it will become lose and the wipers will go and go back and forth. I cant keep any fluid in it either because it will spray it all out. It has been cold recently and it has been a little more agressive. I also noticed in the morning if I started my car to move it real quick (usually I let it warm up for 10 minutes) the breaks would'nt work and lock up. This has happened twice in the past month. Now today the spedometer is jumping all over the place while on my way to work. A check engine light has been on the entire time Ive had her, but now when I tried to go over 10mph she would blink. Not going to drive her, does anyone know anything? I feel like its a simple fix with a wire or something.

People love to hate new cars but good god the vacuum hoses and cables (not to mention plug wires, etc) up to around 2000 made the engine bay a mess and hard to work on. My '97 Taurus with the DOHC had to be halfway torn down to access the rear plugs or anything back there. From the early 2000s to now it's become so easy to access and replace major components that used to be a bitch. Comparing working on a 2012 Ford 3.7 to a 97 Duratec 3.0 is drastic and despite idiots claiming you need 'fancy scan tools', they're the exact same to diagnose with OBD-2.

I just decide to start my Honda after 3 months. I turn the ignition on, car starts right up and runs for about 1 minute. Instead of letting the engine warm up, I put the car in reverse. Nothing happens. I put it back in park, then in reverse. I depress the gas pedal but don't get any power. So I press hard on the pedal to give it power. The car accelerated in reverse at about 60 miles an hour (snapped back). Hit the brakes and the car just continued to revv at high speeds. Put the car in drive without pressing the gas peddle and it sped right up in my driveway. The car is now in park but every time I turn it on, the engine is in acceleration mode and shakes violently.
