Merlin you are a good man always there to help people out and supply them with anything you might have. Thanks for sharing another one of your adventures.
Good video of Merlin and Brad helping a stranded family who's broke down on the road to get their truck running and back on the road. Nice that they gave the RV home to those people to it will help them a lot and Brad got it off of his property.
Well done, Merlin and Brad. It was awesome you could help. I was watching when you drove for seven hours to help Derrick with the third member on the car he got
You fellas are pillars in your community. Keep up your good guy way's it's what makes you the best channel on UA-cam it keeps us coming back for the next video. Seems like you covered some ground this week and helped a couple families in doing so. Keep up the good work and great content. Catch you on the next one.
Thanks Merlin for your vid 😇💟💟💟 Love and bless you guys 🙏💖 good work with helping your fellow Americans 👍😁 what a big campers have you guys there in your country 😉😁
Hearing the name ashfork brings back wonderful memories, the entire side of my dad’s family was born and raised there and as a matter of fact I learned how to drive on the old dirt roads there back in the 80’s lol
Ahello and a blessed Sunday morning to everyone ☀️✝️ Thanks again Merlin for the great video. And please everyone remember let Jesus Christ come into your life and heart for he is the answer ✝️🙏
Look Merlin, I respect you for knowledge so not contesting the words spoke on rod bearing or wrist pin.. I was thinking broken flexplate which is more gooder than whole engine replacements... 400 thousand miles I think I heard said for miles and to me almost crazy miles for a rolling house
Merlin and Brad what a great thanksgiving story. I think devine intervention helped you guys help two families. It could have went so bad with turbo fail and knocking engine locking up. Happy holidays and safe travels. Forgot always wanted a yurt and got to spend a night in one at state park before my 70th bday.
Hi Merlin. Nice roadside rescue/turbo rebuild! Cord was in a pretty bad way. Amazing that you had just the right part he needed, on-hand! Is a bad rod knock worse than a good rod knock? Is there such a thing as a good rod knock? The inside of this motorhome was WAY cleaner than the last one you rescued. This one even has a throttle you can operate with your foot! If you pour the Mrs. Butterworth's into the engine, it might fix the rod knock.
Oh Brad cabbaged on to that Mrs Butterworth's bottle! Give me that he says! 😂 Hey Brad I would have done the same thing! That's good stuff! You are good Guy's helping them folks out! I'm betting you are on Santa's good list! 😉
Cord, the world is just a lot more dangerous than it used to be. Sad as it is, people are afraid and they figure you got a cell phone and can call someone you know. It's too bad isn't it?
Driving a wreck like that with a rod knocking that tough all you need is AAA plus plus and they will tow you 200 miles. Who cares what goes wrong at that point as long as your destination in within 400 miles. Just hope you make the 200 mile threshold and you are guaranteed to make it to your destination.
Helping people on the side of the road is what we should do. I have stopped and asked people if they needed help and they were really nice and did not accept my offer but thanked me for stopping. Merlin and Brad do good things for people and that's pretty awesome. If your afraid to confront anyone then maybe you need to stay home. What goes around comes around. Take care guys.
Brother that motorhome is Daily driver in Yucca 😂 , My Buddy and girlfriend have 3 lots out there live in 5th wheel . They have power but no water . Water wells pretty expensive he said 20-30K .
Yep if ya can't afford to get to far from home don't do it I drive a old car and can't afford to go on long trips so I don't put myself in a citiations
Be careful about "hopping up" a turbo when you go up in altitude! When the air gets thin and you're pulling a long hill, the turbo can overspeed with unpleasant results!
Turbos last a LOT LONGER if you let the engine idle for 1 to 2 minutes BEFORE you shut it off. Typically the turbo spins at 100,000 rpm or more and its shaft is only lubricated by OIL PRESSURE, if you shut it off while it’s still spinning at that speed it will eventually self destruct, let it spin down idle speed😀

I recently sold half my tech stock holdings due to all-time highs, leaving me with $400k. Should I invest in ETFs now or wait for a market correction considering potential inflation?
From $37K to $45K that's the minimum range of profit return every week I thinks it's not a bad one for me, now I have enough to pay bills and take care of my family.
There was a guy known as Jake the Snake that would sell other people's property around the Ash Fork area. Most people gave up because it would cost them in lawyer's fees than the property was worth.
It always sucks to have to work on a vehicle on the side of the road. Last time I had to do on a vehicle on the side of the road it was a CV joint on a minivan that belonged to on of my cousins it was winter with about 5 inches of snow on the ground in about 20Degrees weather with wind chill of around -10. She had hit a deer a few weeks before and the front axle went out and the alignment was out of spec and the new axle made maybe 15 feet before it went out so had to do it all over again. It sucked. That van's alignment had to be within 1/4 of an inch of correct alignment or the axle would not last but a few feet according to the repair manual.
If you put brake fluid on the broken bolt along with using an ez out , it'll come out . A guy at work did it 2 times where just using a ez out wouldn't do it.
I broke down the other day heading out hunting. Blow a back driver side tire. The only one that stopper and ask if we need help was the logging truck drive I met but did not see as I was a little busy .After he had unload he pulled in to see if we were OK. I thank him and told we had under control. He told he seen a piece of my tire was about 40 ft. in the air .And wander what the frig the was but seen in his mirror my down on one side me try to get under control.
Awesome video! There is nothing like helping 2 families.
Blessings to both of you 🙏
Thank you for sharing this 🙏 😊

Another Great Video 👍 Great content, keep up the great work!
Merlin and Brad what a great thanksgiving story. I think devine intervention helped you guys help two families. It could have went so bad with turbo fail and knocking engine locking up. Happy holidays and safe travels. Forgot always wanted a yurt and got to spend a night in one at state park before my 70th bday.
🇺🇸🌵That's a nice piece of property Brad👍🏼
A couple of good men
That's kinda funny, Drive your motorhome straight out to the desert and just walk away. It was nice to donate it to the family though.
Cord has friends in low places. Or low friends in high places. And a great way to unload a couple yerts. Happy Holidays. Be well.

You should have brought the house boat there too. 😮
BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR ... getting louder even with the cover on. LOL. Man, I did bet 5 miles before first stoppage, but I was wrong.
Oh Brad cabbaged on to that Mrs Butterworth's bottle! Give me that he says! 😂 Hey Brad I would have done the same thing! That's good stuff! You are good Guy's helping them folks out! I'm betting you are on Santa's good list! 😉
A great fab guy is moving to your town hope you cross paths
Ok you dumped this in the desert and it should have gone to the dump thanks for more trash
Good thing that wasn't a twin turbo Ford! The handiest rag available is the shirt you're wearing 😂👍
That’s cool how it all worked out. Because that could of been all bad
👍👍👍👍👍😊
Cord, the world is just a lot more dangerous than it used to be. Sad as it is, people are afraid and they figure you got a cell phone and can call someone you know. It's too bad isn't it?
Nothing is that flat in Vermont,
I enjoy looking for a while,
But I definitely would miss my mountains.
you da Man
Now when you are told to get lost nd go fly a kite, you can say okay, I think I will go and fly MY kite ... Thank you for the wonderful idea!

Hey 👋 Merlin Brad always a pleasure hahaha 🤣 ❤️☮️💪🏻✌️
Metal cobalt or high temperature stainless, of The metal called Haster Loi or en Kanell,, BigAl California thanks
Happy December everyone,
24°F in the Live Free or Die State ❤😊
Brad should go into the engine knock go away business. 😁
Seem like it would be more expensive to truck in water & propane. I hope the kids are into the solitude as much as the parents.
😱 Lots of issues going on there!

Remember the Doors song: "There's a killer on the road...his brain is squirming like a toad...😮
Seems more like a tight wrist pin causing a bunch of piston slap. I seriously doubt the ol girl would've lasted that long with a bad bearing.
Merlin and Brad are Breaking Bad!!!
Just luke the movie RVwith Robin Williams LOL
Almost sounded like a converter bolt hitting the block
Brother that motorhome is Daily driver in Yucca 😂 , My Buddy and girlfriend have 3 lots out there live in 5th wheel . They have power but no water . Water wells pretty expensive he said 20-30K .
😂 it sure is! Well’s running about 30k.
This has inspired me to put a new turbo on my 96 Dodge 12 valve with 235000 miles.
That's funny I used to use charcoal under the truck.
Death Grip Garage meets Major Magical Merlin Schooled you All.
Yep if ya can't afford to get to far from home don't do it I drive a old car and can't afford to go on long trips so I don't put myself in a citiations
Stopping in AZ-DEATH!
No kite footage?
As soon as you said tight and grabbed it I knew you were going to fly it...
coming soon

LOL, Remines me of the Breaking Bad camper.
Wear seatbelts. Lol. Little annoyance could save your life.

Many new tra-ders face challenges without proper guidance. I found success by learning from James Clark's expertise.

Hey Merlin, you have a little
"Breaking Bad " going on there. 😅😅 stay safe.

Just a fyi pearl milling company is bringing back Mrs. Butterworth, people have raised hail. She's coming back.
Are you going to Matts off-road games?
When Merlin is on the scene, shut up and get out of his way.
It always sucks to have to work on a vehicle on the side of the road.

I'm guessing most people on the highway these days can't work on cars and so don't stop.
