Very good diagnosis technician and mechanic would love longer videos then you would be right up there with the big boy's only just found your channel and really enjoy them
Nice diag. Electricity always finds the path of least resistance and in this case should not be a test light. I love auto diagnostics. That buzz of finding a loose, broken or green wire.😂
There is a small oil filter in the head. You can google how to change it. If it is plugged with sludge the oil flow is limited. Change it periodically (and keep the oil clean) and you wont have this problem.
Hi Jim, the diagnosis took about 20 minutes. I disagree that the first thing I should check for is a bad earth. Live, signal & ground. All had to be tested which ever order I carried the tests. The customer was charged for an hour long assessment; would of been wheather it had taken an hour of 5 minutes.
Hi Rich. Good question. It would depend on how good the jump lead was. The test with the test light showed me all I need to know & which direction I needed to go for repair. Check out the video from supermariodiagnostics. Which explains it very well. th-cam.com/video/qYXtC1G3yMY/w-d-xo.html
Testing with a jump lead is a poor way to carry out that test as depending on the quality of the jump lead it still may not start. Look up the video super mario diagnostics did on testing earth faults. It explains it quite well

Great diag, really clear explanation
I had this on my fiesta 1.4 Tdci and it was the starter motor that had failed,repaired it and it still works

Good evening AMS mobile, I just subscribed also & I liked the test light for the voltage drop test 💪
Thanks for sharing from a fellow TH-camr 🙏
Im trading mine in. Mechanic cant find anything wrong. One day it works great, others days trouble starting, next day cuts off while driving.
Put something on that mic bcause we only hear the wind blowing..
There's a big flake of rust on the end of the crank position sensor
Hi mate ,
Loved the video and loved the way you approached it .
Also I recomend for a mic Rode Wireless Mic 2 . They are the best .
Cheers.
Cheers. I appreciate you sitting through it. Just bought a Bluetooth mic, but if its no good I'll have a look at the one you suggested.
Who ever fitted clutch will be getting a ear bashing lol
They’ll be getting the invoice for the tow and diagnosis i imagine!
bit shitty for customer having to fix a problem that was created by other shop. such is life i guess.
The first thing to test is the ground. Still I expect he managed to bill for everything else.

Hi don’t want to be negative no pun intended and I think you probably do this anyway a jumper earth to the engine would show the problem 😊

Sloppy clutch job… Didn’t bother cleaning anything by the looks of it.
Long way around on a fiat just go from the negative on the battery to a metal on the engine with jumper cable
