The truck stop "PICNIC"

[@henryminton4760]

Out of all the channels I watch,you all are my favorite and I always look forward to seeing your videos..😊😊😊

[@barrypierce9100]

Take it to a radiator shop and have it fixed

[@jakeswarm216]

My words exactly. Flip them $50 and a perc and they'll happily tig it right up.

[@flyerbob124]

Might be too late now that he put JB Weld all over it. That stuff is tough to remove. Also…….are there still radiator shops around? Most car one are throw away and get a new one now.

[@guybuddyman838]

He should just leave it alone. It was still working. Just has to mess with sh!t

[@amymarie8705]

Super cute, Lita with the doggies while Robert works on truck. Alot y'all go through out there. Good work for sure! Enjoy the channel. Thanks 😊

[@rodkennedy9800]

The dawgies are running the show with their ‘humans’. 🤔

[@Parker-ub8xu]

If you’ve never heard me say it before. Thanks for posting

[@scottreed5460]

Robert always gets up early so easily.. I thought only old people like gettin up early but this dude gets up with the chickens

[@SouthGeorgiaHotShot]

Haha I don’t like it

[@danielcollins7588]

Your a professional everything Got that JB weld cert? I think Lita and the dogs are having a blast watching you😂😂😂😂 you need to be chewing gum, prepping for next repair. Sorry, with rates so low, doing your best.

[@fryingupasadcusine]

Hello to Robert and the woman. Stay Blessed and safe.

[@dustinhuffman574]

Another comment to share...this was the whole Monte this time...2 weeks in a shop for a 3 hundo part...but since it was in for a slave cylinder I went ahead and had them change the whole clutch, flywheel, throw out bearing, pressure plate, clutch brake...rear seal on N14...master cylinder...hose and resovoir...2 slave cylinders...later...while down in there replacement of air charger...and air line from front to back...to air compressor...also they replaced front passenger airline to brake...replaced main belt because it broke during testing with roller blew out air line to clutch fan as well...all this work done for 5k..but 2 weeks off...worst issue was bleeding the slave cylinder but awesome people at D&D truck sales and service in okc..Oklahoma...ask for Kennedy

[@henkmeyer1960]

The dogs do steal the show, they are just awesome. Safe driving there Robert, thanks for the videos.

[@buddyreed2623]

Have you tried removing the spray head for the wipers to see if there is dirt in it? A straight pin may push the clog out as well. Good for double loads. Have good days!

[@paco112209]

If the radiator keeps breaking on the apu, it can be because of the apu motor mounts. Also, if you find leaking while you're driving, there should be a shutoff for the fluid going to the apu in your engine compartment.

[@ourbusyboys]

Good Evening Robert sometimes the powersteering filter can be backing up in that reservior

[@elpapatruckingllc8827]

I use a needle to unplug the sprayer at the windshield wipers they get clog with gunk.

[@SouthGeorgiaHotShot]

I’ll give that a shot thanks

[@digger1825]

Thanks!

Thanks Digger!

Great video guys. Lita, appeared to enjoy sitting on the trailer with the fur babies. Robert, you got lucky being in the shade working just the truck. Great job loading the mimi equipment. Be safe on your trip making the delivery. Prayers ❤❤.

[@poppad59]

Thanks for the great videos.

[@freebird1ification]

man i remeber back in my younger years many moons ag dropping 2 maybe 3 loads in a day was the dream come true

[@Mississippi87]

Thank yall for the videos ❤

[@marktelin7259]

Thats the way unloading should be quickly. 😊

[@freebird1ification]

1-800 radiators in cobb county georgia buy it 1 time lifetime warranty as long as you own the truck

[@larrythompson8630]

I was thinking.”Don’t put blue for test”. Glad it worked. I will take any of those units. The first one would be best with extras. Thumb, jackhammer, larger bucket.

[@jamesorr2832]

Hello y'all, glad your getting some nice weather for a change. It's just Crazy what things cost now I got a 3 year old E/Z Turn lawn mower and the seat switch went bad so I checked on a new one and it was 50 dollars!! Crazy!! I just by passed it with a jumper wire I didn't like it dying every time I got off it anyway. Be Safe out there and God Bless.

[@SouthGeorgiaHotShot]

You jinxed my next video about the weather btw lol

[@user-fj2ir5xz8r]

Awesome that you can operate those machines Robert

[@yellowdog7806]

[@donald-1463]

Tri fecta for Robert and Lita glad you are getting loads again

[@anthonylopez-hr6dw]

As always looking forward to ur videos. Best of luck.

[@JohnBurdette-or7if]

Good deal 👍

[@dangerhellbender3245]

Lita, Channel hero!

[@Chicago_Clout]

My superhero Robert..

[@Gogetit777]

I put a new power steering reservoir on there and it’s still doing the same thing

[@winslowcarr7187]

I like to use JB Weld quick.Works for me.

[@nebraskamalt6949]

If you can get it good and clean, and maybe rough up the surface, that JB Weld is good stuff

[@jeffreywilson9513]

Bless you Lena

[@guybuddyman838]

I like the fix it videos. Better than hearing you complain.

[@danielcollins7588]

He complains when his fixing it too

[@user-gp8ne7pr8v]

Lita is sitting in one of the most dangerous spots. Robert you should know that.

[@josephfrycek7229]

That's so funny, when I was running hotshot I ran 2 car, repos to good old Rawls. So many nights spent at that truck stop up the road.

[@danacalvo1]

Hope you was able to fix the APU issue! Great video 👍🏽

[@davidgriffin14]

Pimpin ain't easy!

[@Chino-qm2kf]

Yes!!!! Lina finally got a new pair of tights!!!! You go gurl!!!

[@spacemonkey2915]

I was in a Freightliner (penske lease) and it had algae growing in the windshield washer reservoir. Got it cleaned out, and about a month later it came back. They ended up having to replce the reservoir and the tubing.

[@priusrepellent]

JB Quick to the rescue! I had a fuel tank leak on my “clock ring” on top of my bottom tank coming from my transfer tank in my bed, was always leaking when top tank was full and having constant head pressure. I then used the huge tubes of JB and it hasn’t leaked in years. I guess when I need to replace the tank, I’ll just have to get a new one!!! Works great!

[@JoeParlous]

Nice video to watch! It sucks that you just bought that tractor and are having that many problems with it! It's good that you are able to fix most of the problems yourself, good job! Liking the positive attitude in the past couple of videos, makes them so much better to watch! I totally understand about getting upset and ranting about some things, just not all of the time because as you get older, you realize you can't change the situation, you just have to deal with it and move on, it's not worth causing yourself a heart attack or stroke over! Again, really have enjoyed watching the past couple of your videos, keep'em going like this!

[@timmcdermottgetgf2250]

Hi Robert and Lita

[@2020HotShotTruckingLLC]

My power steering reservoir looks just like yours. I thought I overfilled mine too, but it keeps seeping out from somewhere without really seeming to be getting low. You can see thru it - barely. Helps to use a flashlight.

[@user-ef7wn4mw3p]

What a dir-tee, dir-tee truck Robert...reminds me of my own.

[@SouthGeorgiaHotShot]

I just can’t find time. And don’t wanna pay for them to streak it up lol

[@--JYM-Rescuing-SS-Minnow]

$25 bucks!! geez!! what a beautiful day! wait? U said youtube takes 30% off the top?? yup! that's some sick way's! meh! brighter day's.. not 4 me though! just roll over me a couple more times! the dear viewer fan! great video ya'll. nice image quality. decent weather! made in the shade.. the 12 ft. high semi with 60ft trailer, doesn't ring a bell with them!!! ha..ha.. wow! at least they show U where U'r load is! I figured they'd just leave ya'll sitt'n like poor little trucking nerds, & puppy's! so the tale of the story goes... gosh! don't ya'll work 2 hard...ha. pup trying to find those dog bone/rk ear rings!

[@kennethrobinson11231]

JB weld is the best. You have got to clean the heck out of it

[@ScottByeTX]

Great video. Reeled me back in to daydreaming of buying a truck and hitting the road with my wife. Being company drivers has its own stress factors.

[@SouthGeorgiaHotShot]

Let me know when your ready. I know a guy with a white t680 and a stepdeck lol

[@flyerbob124]

You can fix anything with JB Weld🤗

[@dustyroads834]

I would try some red Loc-tite on the leak. We used to use it on air tanks that had rust pin holes in them.

[@jamesbigham9036]

I hope you guys is luck is turning around 2 loads back to back is definitely going to help you guys out and make up for a little bit of the down time you have been having trying to find loads

[@glennjukes5581]

Need to let that JB Weld set up 24 hours-if I 'm not mistaken to really harden. Without putting it back on and running it! Also-those radiatorss are special made for that-spend the money-buy an OEM one-then take that damaged one to a small radiator shop when you get home-have them fix it for spare. Pay the money once-stop farting around. You stay on the rod all the time-don't add stress to you all's lives.

[@brianellis869]

If you clean the power steering resivor you can usually see the level with a good flashlight.

[@nebraskamalt6949]

A little heat helps clean the weld zone - even a bic lighter

[@dixiemae5042]

Fourth from NC

[@noahbowen7032]

Semi doesn't have to be running it just needs to be in the ON not acc for washer pump

[@SouthGeorgiaHotShot]

Hmm it was and still didn’t work

[@noahbowen7032]

@@SouthGeorgiaHotShot try it again. Might of needed primed

[@georgiapatriot4575]

16:26 - that operator looked quick and smooth!

[@SouthGeorgiaHotShot]

Yeah thank goodness 😅

[@NikeHM69]

I'm sure you can get a generic radiator for cheap if you measure it and make it work. Honestly, it looks the same as the rads that they use on side by sides. 👍

[@user-mf4ue5rg8x]

Hi Robert you can get a tank setup and get rid of the radiator on your APU I sent you a message about it once before with the part number keep up the good work brother

[@SouthGeorgiaHotShot]

How did you send it? I don’t remember seeing anything

[@rn4vetsny304]

Hey Robert! i sent you a Venmo to avoid the 30% LOL

[@terrysteelman6860]

Do it the right way the first time and don't worry about it any more

[@JohnMetz-es8qd]

Robert clean out your sprayer nozzle’s with a small wire. Mine clogged up all the time on my Kennworth!

[@SouthGeorgiaHotShot]

Yeah someone else mentioned that. I’m gonna try it

[@SouthGeorgiaHotShot]

I don’t see a pin hole on mine

[@waynecook5183]

Rad flange is to thin reinforce with l channel to keep it from viberating

[@michaelsorrentino-yp7nb]

Griffin Radiators!! make the nascar stuff.

[@AJ-zv9tn]

that griminess around the power steering reservoir, probably an o-ring on the reservoir cap itself is slightly bad

[@plumbob916]

Robert you could bypass that little radiator. just use the main radiator and the engine block would dissipate way more geat than that little apu could ever generate. You could always put a small electric fan on the trucks radiator, that would kick on if the apu ever reaches high temp.

[@SouthGeorgiaHotShot]

Yeah that’s my next step. Seems a lot of guys end up doing that

[@josephfrycek7229]

We run a zip tie (zippy tie, lol) around the washer pump

[@SouthGeorgiaHotShot]

Does the stop the leak some how?

[@josephfrycek7229]

@@SouthGeorgiaHotShot it puts pressure on the seal. It's not an end all be all, but it helps. I'll try to send you a picture of how we run it on Instagram. Extreme handling is my user name on there.

[@davidevans474]

Hopefully it will work or just go buy a new one hundred dollars 💵 not much these days . Good luck to you 😊

[@josecorreia8280]

Hi new radiator or fixed reinforce with JB

[@JeremyEllis43787]

There is a filter in your power steering

[@nebraskamalt6949]

I’m guessing your emitters are semiclogged on the wipers.

[@dannybishop4892]

JB weld doesn't dry, it cures.

[@BMXster]

Can you run an external radiator for your APU?

[@AC.Prince]

It's weird seeing darkness at 7 am

[@barrypierce9100]

Have custom copper one built last for ever

[@ronwindle3244]

Was she and time out on that last part of the video she was sent on the floor with the dogs

[@priusrepellent]

Crocodile wipes from Home Depot, I forgot to mention that these wipes are awesome! Cheap, work great for hands, face, and body! Cheaper than dude wipes!!!! And just as good as orange cleaner for hands and grease! Hope this helps!

😅Robert. Truck needs a wash!

Green APU are the best APU

@@SouthGeorgiaHotShot yeah this guy and used to repair a small engine carburetor, I have not had occasion to use them, I though of them when you talked about it. too bad there are not any real radiator shops around any more to fix that

[@diamondback2295]

Yeah buddy. Get it 35:15

[@eddiereichel9354]

Just buy yourself a radiator bud. I'm certain no matter how much the part is that it's cheaper than ruining an engine. Especially your truck engine. You can't make money if your broke down

[@slalomking]

Robert put in the winter mix, not summer mix. The windshield washer fluid

[@SouthGeorgiaHotShot]

Pretty sure that’s the -20

[@slalomking]

@@SouthGeorgiaHotShotyep, that’s winter.

Robert take that little mudflap off in front of your metal fenders on the driver side you don’t need it because you have fenders😊

But what will I trip on then?

[@BB-qn5rj]

What’s radiator fluid

[@just4thetruckofit]

Thats lots of liability there bud

[@randyknighton772]

You need to move your trailer dump valve so you don't have to crawl under traluer to operate valve

[@SouthGeorgiaHotShot]

I have it connected directly to the leveling valve

[@Tsilsby]

Honda civic radiator is small. Looks like about the same size.. And those are cheap

[@billtodd6509]

Why not get a roll of that super black tape the the guy who sells it on TV made a racing boat out of it and drove it 80 miles an hour without a problem. That should keep your little old radiator from leaking.
