    My former Transit 150 van suffered from recurring check engine lights evert few hundred miles. I'd get a small leak code in the evap system. Not having the tools that Ray has, I disconnected the purge solenoid, attached a line to it and blew through the line. I could move air through it when it was closed. I fired the parts cannon and got a new one, I could not move air through it when it was closed. It cured the problem for about $30, no more check engine light for the time I owned it.

      Oh it’s broken in already. Not by being driven hard by the nurse though. Amazon O2 sensor and in for check engine light with no other info point, the filthy engine bay, ripped and dirty seats among other things point to how it’s maintained. For only 51k miles it’s not wearing well at all. The rotted door panel and what are the dash carpet and filthy steering wheel cover hiding? Poor GT and that fake hood scoop.🤦‍♂️

    • @stevewhiting556
      @stevewhiting556 Рік тому +2

      I’d take one half the age with twice the miles before I’d buy that one. The lack of mileage is exactly why it frequents the shop. It isn’t driven enough to let all the systems heat and lube properly. Florida humidity causes moisture. The moisture in the evap system is probably what killed this valve. Going for a road trip every once in a while would probably prevent most of this car’s problems. Let it burn off the moisture and get everything hot and well lubed. My guess is that this nurse lives close to their job and probably does 10 miles or less per day. That’s awful for longevity. Especially if they live in Tampa. It’s probably 5 miles each way of traffic jams.

    When the battery terminals start to corrode like that it is an indication that someone has either impacted the terminal screws on way too hard or hammered the terminals on or mutilated them in some other way

    We use a smoke machine in the Corporate and Concert Events industry with the same stuff you use. Rosco smoke machines which have high output fog and special formula for haze output......they're fun....but smelly. LOL

    If this was my shop, the first thing that would have been done is reverse the door of death so the hinges are on the other side of the opening. Then the door could be almost flat against the wall when open, and not hanging across another doorway.

    I think if the fuel tank were more filled with gas, the smoke might have made it out. Also, isn't there a small spring loaded door down the filler tube that opens only when you shove the gas hose into it?

    • @jsh6952
      @jsh6952 Рік тому +1

      That door is to keep unwanted objects from falling into the gas tank, it isn't air tight. The cap provides the air tight seal.

    I had one of those lock gas cap in my older car. A mechanic told me that you can take those out without the key so I asked him to show me. All you have to do is push the gas cap with pressure and then turn it.
