I change 3 engine before I found out it wasn't the engine that was seize but it the alternator was frozen coincidentally I decided to remove the belt then start the car that's how I solve the problem, PS, the reason y ichange the engine the car was diagnosed by a shop that said the engine is seized
I put some leak stopping fluid in an AC Compressor, it seized, Compressor clutch seized also. I sprayed that stuff everywhere, got it on the idler pulley and finally broke the belt!!
Well this is a bit dreary
The very first time my dad showed me how to change oil, we start it up and oil starts gushing out of the filter adapter. Turns out, the gasket from the old filter was still stuck to the block. One. Giant. Mess.
Still, can’t think of a better time to learn a valuable lesson like that than my literal first rodeo.
When I first started working on cars I had a terrible fight trying to fit some new brake pads and discs.
When I test drove the vehicle and applied the brakes, there were two loud cracks and a horrible grinding noise.
The rotors had seperated from their centres.
Stupidly it turned out that I hadn't loosen the lid on the brake fluid reservoir. 😬🤭🙄
At least the customer beat the crap out of a part that was going in the trash anyway. You know how many windshields I've seen destroyed out of frustration lol!
I got married twice, and wow, what a mistake!! LOL…oh well, maybe third times a charm right?? (JK, That'll never happen)
The young fella gave'r a try, give him credit. Lotta young guys won't get their hands dirty. Maybe SMA will give him a few tips, and a link to this video. Great job by the producer.
I would comment, too much grease on the pins and I would have chucked the pads as they are already used technically. Never underestimate brake work.
👍took a long road trip with mom. Dad told and showed me to check the oil at every stop.
I checked the trans fluid stick instead of the oil like my A.D.D. self was told.
Dad had to come drag the car back home after about 900 miles 😞
