You should post that video! Don't worry about all the key board specialists, that work on their car once or twice to do a oil change 😅 Alot of viewers including me like the troubleshooting videos the best!! Either way you're very good at your job/trade, don't let some crappie post get under your skin.
When you’re working but not filming, do you still talk to yourself? 😂
Eric rubbing dust on the zip tie😂😂😂he's become a great troll and I love it.
Personally, I love it when you replace plastic fasteners on an old car and then talk about points at the car show. That's hilarious because there are channels where they look at classic cars and will say, non original hose clamp, non original hose, non original bolts, hood pins, whatever. And they're right. But that idea on an old Ford Focus is hilarious.
I feel your pain Mrs. O. Never fails for me with tomato. Every single burger I get has the heel of the tomato in it. There can be five of us ordering a burger and I get the heel. The last one even had some of the green stem on it. Sorry about the complaining Mr. O.
Screw those people!! You can’t please everyone, all of the time. But the rest of us learn a ton from every video you put out! And they are very entertaining!!
I never bought the accumulator either even though many said it would void warranty. There is nothing much to one and it's soul purpose is to make sure no liquid gets to the compressor, but does have a filter dryer, that collects any moisture that may have been left in system, but the vacuum pump should remove all moisture, so I never saw the point of changing them. An upcharge to get you to buy one. A cool experiment is to get a glass jar with a good metal lid and install a schrader valve in the lid, seal it with sillycone and fill the jar with water. When you hook up the vacuum pump, the water will boil for you to see at room temps and freak out a lot of people, including yourself. Have everyone hold it in their hands. Then you will know or others will know how any moisture in a system will boil and build a pressure under vacuum that will immediately get evacuated. This is why you need a good vacuum pump.

Holy mother of pearl that was a whole lot of corrosion on that battery cable Cheers Mr.O.
It was easier to get the tree stump out at the house then it was to get the wire tire off 🤣
The videos where the keyboard experts sound off are the best!
A repair. a bonus AC machine repair, a rant, and an appearance by Mrs. O. What a day!
My neighbors '15 Focus was flat bedded and dropped off in his driveway yesterday. It quit while driving and is an intermittent no-crank. Other symptoms are can't shift out of park, ignition key states not reporting correctly.
Eric O shoud have a million subscribers by now. So much better and honest than some of those other channels.
Mr. O, I'm gonna borrow that great phrase of yours "Let's not take it to the stupid!"😂😂 Love it.🎉
Eric, you have damn near 1 Million Subscribers. Do Not Let the 1% Keyboard Warrior Idiots (wow, almost 10,000 idiots) ruin it for the 99% of us that Love what you do. Your Family and Shop are the Spirit of America.
Best mechanic on the planet, eggshells included!
You know Eric,
CuttingEdgeEngineering is a wonderful UA-cam channel. He runs a large lathe and refurbishes parts for the largest earth moving machines made, e.g. dump trucks, graders, bulldozers, excavators. This week's video he was refurbishing the drum brakes on his fork lift. When it came time to install the spring retainers, that go in the middle of each shoe, he really struggled. He even said, "if I was a mechanic I would have a tool for this." He is not a mechanic, he is a machinist. Machinists use adjustable wrenches, mechanics have six sockets in each size, and five open end and box end wrenches in each size. I do not think I have ever seen Eric O use an adjustable wrench. Heck Eric has
Working at SMA is the only way you could get me to go back in that field.. you'd hear me laughing from the alignment rack in the background though.. or catch me petting Luna.. (Don't worry Eric I wouldn't slam your toolbox drawers)
