      (Just what is it that makes some youtubers dub crappy music over everything? Do they think they're gonna get to direct the remake of 'Gone with the Wind' by using crap youtube music to blot out what little they had to say?) Can't count the number of channels I dropped solely for dubbed over music.

    I have loved Wes’s “describing hands” (as I call them) since I first started following the channel.
    Of the many others things I love about Wes, is his excellent ability to describe function, flow, etc., of equipment, parts & pieces..., so that “even a caveman such as myself can understand it”...
    Had to “chuckle” when the phone went off, and Wes was frustrated...
    He has had many other situations relating to repairs that would have had me cussing like a sailor, and the phone call brings out his frustration...
    Great video,
    Thank you sir.

    I like the idea it's a stuck pressure relief valve. I've had success cleaning up old motors, gradually, using Rislone additive. And the Fram filter could be a contributing factor or all of it. In my opinion, they have the cheapest of the cheap construction.

      @999torino 2 ปีที่แล้ว +13

      @Joby Fluorine I have to strongly disagree with you on this. There are a bunch of TH-cam videos where people tear down, measure, and inspect various filters and the difference in quality is plain to see. I don't know who makes the filters for WalMart, so I can't comment on that, but there is a huge difference between good quality and ElCheapo filers. I also make it a habit to ask professional engine builders about their opinion, they dont use WalMart or Fram orange death filters...

      It was a stuck by-pass valve on the oil pump. It went over 200 PSI when it was cold. I put some Sea Foam in the oil and it has helped some, but still goes to 160 on a cold start, but drops back to 60PSI after a couple minutes of warming up.
      I may end up dropping the belly pan and oil pan to get that fixed. The by-pass oil is what lubes the timing gears.

    I had a filter-seal pop on my grandpa's truck once years ago, not because of an issue with quality of the filter, but because a technician at a cheap/fast oil-change place didn't remove the seal of the previous filter from the block!
    They cranked it down hard enough that it sealed and went down the road for a good long while, only to blow while climbing a long steep hill going out to the dump one day. So it blew, dumped every drop of oil, and my mom (who was alone in the truck at the time) kept on driving to the dump, got there, and called me to ask whether she should shut it off! I told her yes, we had it towed home, I refilled it with oil, and it started up just fine! Then oil gushed/fountained up from one side of the engine and we shut it off quickly. It took one more trial-run with me looking underneath but I finally saw where the oil was spewing from. After that it was a simple matter of replacing the filter, peeling the doubled-up seal off of the block, and topping off the oil. Shockingly, it ran well for years after that! That old '83 F150 worked hard on minimal maintenance for years! But yes, Fram are cheap junk. Still, better the filter that pops than the lines!

    Great video as always, Wes! To get those oil stains out of your hoodie, try some Fels Naptha. It comes in bar form, available anywhere fine laundry products are sold., like $1 a bar. Just wet the oily garment, and rub the bar into it. I use an old toothbrush on carpet and upholstery. That stuff has been around for over a century, and for anything greasy or oily on fabric, it works like magic. Some folks grind up the bars in a food processor and throw a scoop in the laundry.

    It's a Fram filter. I've seen them with split seams on many occasions. I would use old socks stuffed in a tomato can before I would use a Fram filter on anything.

    I work in the vacuum truck industry, building new equipment and deal with hydraulic systems every day. Its all fun and dandy when its dry , and your neatly routing hoses . But wait till you find out your brand new hyd pump, motor, or the worst a spool valve is defective or was incorrect/ non suffucient part loaded out in the bill of material by a wonderful engineer, and all the oil in the world spills out on you, your tools, and a nice new truck you just built 🤣😂. I really do love hydraulics though, making all my hoses run so nice and neat, and seeing a pile of parts do things is awesome

  • @mikeaho4143

    Great vid Wes. Love the education on valves, very useful information. On a side note, you might look at horse stall floor pads to prevent crawler type equipment to damage your floor. A local guy near me uses them and they work great at preventing damage to the cement floor. Thanks for sharing

    A couple of things, 1. First time experiencing a blown oil filter and using a funnel without remarking how much you hate funnel’s! 2. Good use of electrical tape on the boo-boo, duct tape is for the stitches required cuts! 3. As usual an excellent and informative video! Keep up the great work, can’t wait to see your next one!!

    I always put new clothes in the closet for 10 years, then I always have something new to wear if I die. In my 65 years experience, Monkey INC. parts hardly ever work as well as original, always worth the extra buck, you have to pay for the original engineering. Love that educational mechanic language. Cheers.

    My oil truck shop garage has RailRoad Tracks in the floor. 34" wide, dozer, wide, and etc. The buried in cement iron is bonded and grounded by rebar to a stub where the welder can use that stub as a lea hookup for welding. The floors is level and functions like a Frame Machine to lay outs and straightening out bend iron. I can make a jug for any pull, cut a frame and strech out a truck frame, and etc. When done, a grinding wheel removes welded on jugs and restores my floor to normal. One stall has a front end pit that is home built. Learn that trick from North Dakota farmers who repair all their machines.

    When getting a suspicious call slide up on your phone up and put it on airplane mode momentarily. This will show on the callers end as “call failed” instead of “call ended” some auto dialers see this as a dead line and after a few attempts they remove your number.

Well I didn't but others have and they are packed with nothing but goodness rust rust rust straight from the factory and usually the filter inside is yet to be desired by anybody. But you my friend you're the cream of the crop. Thanks for sharing your videos, many blessings to you and your family.
