Always enjoy your videos, Ray. I retired from the field in 2015 and miss the challenges..(not always) and that no 2 days are the same. I had my own shop for a few years and can identify with the effort. One thing that I would recommend, is to buy your brake cleaner in bulk and get a pressurizable spray can (HF has them now) for dispensing. Not as video friendly as the flying empty can, but far more cost effective and less going into the waste stream. Just a thought... CRC has it by the gallon and other suppliers in larger quantities. Keep up the great channel and work. I almost can break into a sweat watching you work...LOL

I've never had a complete fluid exchange kill a transmission. I believe the myth comes from people trying to save an already failed transmission by replacing the fluid. New fluid will not restore a burned clutch pack, nor will it turn back a blown sprag clutch. Any time I installed a used transmission, I always replaced all the fluid--and the filter. Pan gasket and external seals to boot. Easy when the trans is on the bench.

[@duncancremin1708]

I was wondering about the filter, after seeing how black the old fluid was… On balance, I probably would have turned that one down. Intergalactic mileage and clear evidence of recent shoddy maintenance are not a good mix. I have experience of “you were last to touch it. It was fine up to then!” I’m sure there’s a transmission specialist nearby, or a more desperate outfit, that he could have suggested they bring it to.

[@rickgalla3377]

This should NEVER BE DONE without FILTER, Every mechanic knows this, filter inspection and change, fluid exchange with old filter accomplishes nothing

[@volvo09]

I've flushed 2 trans with fluid that nasty (200k in factory fluid) and they were fine until I sold the car. I found my dad had never changed the OE fluid in his car at 180k and I flushed it (unserviceable filter). No problems. I don't believe the "don't flush it" thing... If it fails, it already had problems.

[@jthonn]

That is a miracle the way that engine runs with all the miles. You took a hell of a risk flushing that trans with 400k miles. I would have just changed the filter and the fluid that came out of the pan, and put the conditioner in it. The conditioner kind of revitalizes the old fluid. I am astonished that it worked as well as it did. Great job! Thank goodness. If that thing is maintained properly, it might make a million miles. It is obviously a good one. At the price of trucks now days, you should have a very happy customer.

[@bobbg9041]

A) is that the original motor? B) its a flordia truck, put that same truck in NY it would not have lasted that long before the cab fell off the frame or rust took its death toll.

Hey Ray, out of all your years in automotive, who or what was your best teacher, time/experience, or a single person do you credit for your expertise?

[@ford6]

Another name for e-clips is Jesus clips. Because when it goes shooting across the shop when it doesn't lock in place, the mechanic says "Jesus were did that go!"

[@davidmillhollon486]

Ray you are amazing on your repairs that you do is like you are working on your own car. You are a great man Raymond.

Rightmove man I changed the fluid on one like that and unfortunately ended up putting the transmission at it a couple months later maybe strain the old oil filter it somehow and put the the old tranny fluid back with maybe a new filter and top it off with new but I don't know about a whole flush could lead to a serious malfunction😮

[@georgesnider-m2e]

Another excellent job Ray .I was shocked at how loose that rear wheel was ...

[@jacobemerson8015]

Everyone always says not to touch a highmilage trans, but I changed the fluid and filter in my 1500 when I bought it at 250k without knowing the history, got another 100k out of it before it lost 3rd and 4th. The MAF code would concern me, I hear that can kill transmissions because the PCM uses it to control line pressure

Another grand job Ray

I've never seen two Volvos together maybe it's mating season for Volvos,imagine a Volvo and a Saab together having a oily mess what would they be called =savos or volvabs

[@SyntaxScout]

@21:40, WAY too much sealant! 25% of that would have been plenty.

[@PAUL-1961.]

waste of a lot of brake clean

[@rickgalla3377]

I agree, great product to use sparingly, NOT WASTE IT for putting on a show and throwing empty cans

[@calopii]

I despise this also but it’s one of his signature moves. It’s wasteful, it’s unhealthy and bad for the environment. But what can you do? I bet next time he sprays even one can more because of a comment like mine. If the clicks and likes come in he can afford this easily. Sometimes he goes a little bit too redneck for me.

[@billytheearthworm573]

...yea, don't let the reasons and rhymes of reality get you down... that's weak 😮

[@jellybean8196]

Wish I had a mechanic like you over here in the UK. Need someone like you to be looking after my vehicle

[@simonnissenbaum]

They can be found in the UK. Mine has become a friend but he is in his mid 70's so retirement isn't too far off

[@ourv9603]

For over 30 years I worked for a co that had a fleet of over 75 superduties. By trial & error our co learned the hard way ($$$$$$$$$$$$$$) that the way to make auto trans last forever was to change oil & filter every 30K. Doing a full trans flush & getting the bad oil out made these trans last & last & last. The Boss said he used to have nightmares seeing that OD light flashing. !

[@jdcoverland365]

Don't say TRANS, or DeSantimonious will put you in jail You're in FLA!

[@sw7366]

Actually, you have been misinformed. DeSantis is not concerned about you saying 'trans', he (and I) are adamantly against actively influencing little kids to BE trans.
