Justin finds fractured and delaminated camshaft bearings on his Mercury. Meanwhile on a separate project, we tear down the oil pan, timing cover and remove the transmission on a 6.2l Silverado.

Thanks to Jesse for making the intro and graphic for us to enjoy!!




















I got to yank an engine out of a Pontiac Firebird in a tent in the back yard in SC summer because I figured I could drive it a few more times overheating and be ok. The crank bearing on the number 6 cylinder disagreed. 1 Junkyard engine and 2 weeks of after work wrenching later, I was back running and overheating. The daggum exhaust pipe on the driver's side was crushed and the restriction wasn't allowing heat out through the muffler.
wait…. so in the beginning you were telling us how you go reinstall parts that other people had just taken off…. then complain about people spinning your torque converter… makes sense
I enjoyed your team work u ray, you have patience
I work on my own cars my father was a Motor pool sergeant in the Army and then he work Fleet maintenance throughout his career If you are that far into it A new timing Chain is the smart way to go I've changed Timing chains when I've changed water pumps depending on the mileage of the vehicle
Ray. Nu nu nuh nu nuh nahw. Are you doing the Lone Ranger chase theme from Bill Cosby's comedy album depicting the celebrated downhill plywood go cart race ? Tell me Yes.
@Ray, what aftermarket parts do older 2005 ,chevy 1500's like the best? my 93 blazer liked ac delco…. but that was a long time ago
15:30 – Bruddah Iz!
That song's story is legend. Dude comes up with a concept in his head, calls up early morning a studio guy. He wasn't yet Iz as we know Iz, but they go on and let him go on in to do the thing, and at 3am he puts down on tape that song. One take, one time, all done. It was only for Iz, family and friends. The studio producer kept a copy too.
5 years later Iz is bigger known, and they felt it was time to release the song to the world because the album didn't feel complete without it.
And the rest is history. Great song. Wonderful voice. Gone too soon, but legacy intact.
Love your work Ray! You are very entertaining
Beerfest was amazing.
I live in Fort Pierce. Can you work on my Ram 2017 if I bring it to you. Nothing real big.
I do wish you could show a picture of the "So" Lady
Soohhhhh
cant people just watch and enjoy without nickpicking and bit8hing like little. c**ts? 11:53. thats what she said , I spit out my coke!! LOL.
Gm’s fuel line is really bad about getting seized in the fuel filter. That’s probably why someone butchered it.
OH MY GARAGE!!! You are right THERE!! Change the timing chain!!! GADZUKES!!!
Ray
The reason for less bolts on the torque converter is to increase gas mileage 😊😊😊😊
They don't make them like they used to.
This is really nice of you and Bearded ford tech ,to help the youngster out.
My neighbor owns a 2023 GMC DENALI ULTIMATE which he paid over $100,000 for is going on the DENALI 3rd engine First motor seized up with only 3000 miles on it. Dealer replaced the motor, and that motor blew up with only 6000 miles on it and now the dealer might be negotiating a refund do to limon law. My neighbor said replace with another new one or full refund. His wife and kids were 50 miles from home and stranded on the side of the road for four hours. I am not sure what motor was in it but that series had motor issues.
I had an Audi a4 that blew up in the same way because of the o ring on the oil pick-up tube. The car came in running lean and like crap. I fixed numerous vaccum leaks but couldn't get the car to run right. A couple months later, the engine blew up, and guess who's fault it was, according to the customer? Only figured out what happened after tearing the block down.
