eric. great channel. I'm an auto tech student with three years of gs experience. I graduate next year. is a dealership a good first tech job or should I go to an dependant shop. I've got 5 ase certs and will be master certified by the time I graduate
hey eric, got an 86 monte with a 355 chevy swap. I'm having issues with the engine bogging at full throttle and nearly stalling. I've adjusted the accelerator pump on my eddy 650 carb to the longest pump shot and the hesitation is still there. Also, the engine will sometimes idle very low at a stop and stall for no reason. What could cause this? fuel filter? thanks
I change my drum break on my nissan primera p10 1.6 16v and after few km i service them and see that one side break is much thin then 2nd on both sides i try to adjust them and put thé drum back if one side is thin then other break what can i do ?
I really have no idea of where to post this, however, I was trying to register at your forum and forgot the Captcha, the website considered me a threat, then when I re-set the Captcha, it said Access 403 – Auto Banned…. So has the safety devices incepted in your website now recognizes my IP address as shut me down every time… I can't even view things that were already open to me before… Thanks, I'm finally happy to become a part of the community, I finally have a Honda, well, an Acura…
Eric I have a 99 f-150 4.2 my truck no start no crank
I like the put a Kubota 4 tractor diesel engine cylinder in a hungry Cadillac Seville 1970s good fuel economy and style that's how I like to roll to be nice challenge for someone and funny noises
and then we can throw the old stuff back in the automatic transmission used little filter before you do it
yeah I say it again if you have Honda vehicle used Honda stuff nothing else it also counts for other automatic or semi-auto transmissions

I have a low speed steering wheel wobble to the left and i know tires need balanced will do that this weekend. I'm suspecting ball joint or tie rod possibly bent rim i checked to make sure rim was tight. Also when the 2000 honda accord ex 4 door get's over 3,000 rpm's i hear like an air pump loud squeal under the engine bay left side, it's only when driving not while in park. appreciate your help have watched your video's since you came onto youtube have helped me tremendously thx
Do you have any idea if I need to release air pressure in the fuel line after changing the fuel pump?
