[@wayneolson5542]

Hey Jason and OCG nation, I'm not looking for any sympathy but I lost my mother and my uncle in the last month. it's been rough but I want to say thank you for providing me with a way to get my mind off the rough times and finding a smile. Keep up the good work Jason. You're helping to keep car Calture alive. God bless you.

[@OldeCarrGuy]

Hey Wayne! Terribly sorry for the recent loss you’ve experienced. I’m please that you find comfort in my videos and thanks for reaching out. My prayers are with you and your family.

[@donaldhalls2189]

Glad you pointed it out about Cooper pipe I really didn't think of the brittle ness thanks for that information, hope it's all going well, all the best to you and your loved ones

[@OldeCarrGuy]

All is well! Thanks Donald

[@allenbeaulieu7077]

Nice job sir!! Keep up the great job. Big Al.

[@OldeCarrGuy]

Thanks buddy

[@TC-zh9kn]

Great video man. It’s been a fun ride.

[@OldeCarrGuy]

Yessir

[@leaburnpatey2596]

I would update the power steering pump bracket. The originals are horrible and floppy. I sent Tom the info on it.

[@OldeCarrGuy]

Looking into that as well

[@leaburnpatey2596]

That pump is a TRW pump. More common than you think. Stamped right on it...how can you overlook that? 9:47

[@OldeCarrGuy]

I may have got the names mixed up, but either way, I had a hard time sourcing a new/reman one!

[@meh-canics9628]

I had the same issue with the power steering line in my truck, so I did a double flare, and converted it to -4 JIC fittings, and made a hose

[@OldeCarrGuy]

When you don’t have the parts you need your work with the parts you got

[@leaburnpatey2596]

TTi sells complete exhaust kits with or without mufflers. Exhaust shops are leary and expensive when it comes to bending tailpipes. The TTi system fits perfect and cost is same or cheaper than a shop. I have installed 3 systems on C bodies.

[@OldeCarrGuy]

I think Tom is on it!

[@garymatthys3605]

That flange on the pulley hub is made to fit a dedicated puller set. It should always face out.

[@OldeCarrGuy]

Yeah yeah! I know! 😂

[@garymatthys3605]

@@OldeCarrGuy Not specifically replying to you Jason. Didn't mean to imply you were lacking knowledge. Some viewers might not know though.

[@davidmcgraw1294]

So much fun ...you order parts and they are wrong ..thank you J..A..pan company ..

[@OldeCarrGuy]

Exactly

[@Str8sixfan]

Dang! an $800 power steering pump? Reminds me of working on my CRD Jeep Liberty. This is the risk of working on oddbodies some times!

[@OldeCarrGuy]

I guess eh!

[@GaryBoyd02]

Where else on KZbin can you go and see someone pull a power steering pulley out from beside a bag of mixed vegetables. Now that is East Coast! We do the same thing out here except it's salmon beside the pulley. Just ask Luke. Glad to see your eating a balanced diet Jason.

[@OldeCarrGuy]

lol Thanks Gary

[@funfunfun732]

I messed up the pump on my 99 seville by changing hi pressure line never got all the air out

[@OldeCarrGuy]

That’ll do it

[@MinnesotaBeekeeper]

I missed your other video? Can't believe it, never heard of a Dodge Monaco. Interesting. What year is it? Thanks.

[@OldeCarrGuy]

Hey Mike! It’s a 1968 Monaco 500 with a 440 Magnum!

[@davecarey7452]

Looks like everything is in place to steer this ship. Copper fuel line is perfectly acceptable for this application.

[@OldeCarrGuy]

Thanks Dave

[@QQQ-os9dj]

Dude, It's me again that did resubscribe after the CV911 thingy. I have a cold thingy. This was better yet not that entertaining. I can help you if you pay me to simply live. You are doing better I must say.

[@OldeCarrGuy]

Welcome back

[@unclesquirrel6951]

Personally I blame squirrels

[@OldeCarrGuy]

And George Straight’s ex’s don’t all live in Texas!

[@willr69420]

*At least it's an easily correctible mistake!*

[@OldeCarrGuy]

Thankfully

[@moparnut6286]

If your going to use copper.... Then why not ni copp nickel copper line the best of both worlds strong does not rust and easy to bend and flare.

[@OldeCarrGuy]

It what I had laying around the shop! So it’s what we used!

[@henryescat1104]

Looks like somebody needs to make a better puller tool... Million dollar idea...

[@garymatthys3605]

They do...

[@OldeCarrGuy]

Yup, and I actually had one but couldn’t find it!
