No Start, Diagnostic Basics - EricTheCarGuy

2012-08-30T19:49:00.002+07:00

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FBUYs539cy4endofvid [starttext]This video is a response to the Honda Main Relay video that I did. I've had a couple of people come to me with questions about no start conditions and how they should go about fixing them. This video is a starting point to a series that I plan to cover on this subject. The point I make in the video over and over is, don't make assumptions. Assumptions get expensive and can frustrate you to the point of homicide, follow these simple tips and it will lead you down the path of success.hey i have a 78 f100 ranger xlt i have a problem when i try to start my truck all it does is make a loud noise i done took the starter and alternator and battery to autozone and they said they were fine and put them back in checked the wiring i dont know what to do [endtext]

Engine stall - Main relay(clicking noise)

2012-06-06T21:38:00.000+07:00

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S63OGGSP_JQendofvid [starttext]If main relay is not the problem, check fuel pump. If fuel pump is not the problem, then, most likely ECU. I ended up replacing car's computer unit(ECU) after all. Then, it all fixed it! When car gets old, ECU also ages. As a result, aged ECU can create a "phantom symptom" such as clicking noise of main relay, malfunction of fuel pump, etc. I am not sure if ECU is the cause of your CRX's problem or not, but in my case, it fixed the problem. Good luck. [endtext]

How to fix Acura/Honda not starting in hot weather

2012-06-06T21:36:00.004+07:00

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ssYpyXjGw9gendofvid [starttext]Older Acura/Honda models (especially Acura Integras) often don't start in hot weather. Reason is a defective fuel pump relay. This instructional video shows how to locate the relay, remove it, fix its soldering points, and put it back in.will it work on a 93 acura legend, if so what color does it need to be because my bf bought a red little box when i thought it was the black box. did he get the right one.Not sure what kind of relay a 93 legend needs, but the part number should be easy to find by Googling. Different models use different relay types which aren't interchangeable, so make sure it's the right one. [endtext]

How to diagnose and replace a bad starter motor

2012-05-10T15:04:00.004+07:00

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UnmnWuuLfzEendofvid [starttext]Another great video. I admire your patience when going through your diagnostic steps for isolating the starter as the problem. There are a lot of folks who would have thrown a starter at it first. I also liked the remote switch, I'm going to have to get one of those. One more thing..I learned that I'm not the only person that casually says "B+", which is awesome. [endtext]

2003 Ford Ranger Starter Motor Repair

2012-05-10T15:01:00.001+07:00

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3V05vvqVfyUendofvid [starttext]If the engine is cranking, the starter is fine, the only function of the starter is to actually make the engine spin when turning the key. If it is cranking but not starting, you have something electrical which is causing the no-start condition. It could be a number of things from the fuel pump to a bad relay, to a number of other items. [endtext]

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n_mQjlUwYmIendofvid [starttext]Yer the whole amps thing im worried about since im running it off a motorcycle battery (15A). Its more the coolness and practicality of it. I can just sit in my kart n go, i dont have to spend 5 mins starting it all the time. Im thinking of putting a 250cc motorcycle engine on it instead.

How To Install Replace Change Starter Motor Chevy Cavalier Pontiac Sunfire 95-05

2012-05-10T14:58:00.004+07:00

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1cB8tuyxyQkendofvid [starttext]For anyone who has the starter only accessible from the bottom such as my 2.2L with DOHC, this is the process you want to follow. The tools needed are appropriate size sockets and wrenches and an elbow socket extender. There will be one bolt right in the open on the actual starter on the bottom, the other one is in an awkward spot above it. Use the elbow socket extender the get the proper position on it. Hope this helps anyone. [endtext]

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UnmnWuuLfzEendofvid [starttext] That's why I like watching your videos, too, since we seem to think the same way. Careful diagnostics are less work in the long run, and more satisfying than just throwing parts.

Fuel Pump Problem

2012-04-12T17:06:00.002+07:00

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=suxG4zljlNEendofvid [starttext]Before buying a new pump or anything,check the fuse for the fuel pump,and check the fuel pump relay. My 84 towncar for sure has a bad fuel pump. It drives well until I drive it about an hour or so,then it'll start to backfire and have no gas pedal response,also the pump is very loud. Good luck if you haven't fixed it yet. [endtext]

Fuel Pump Relay Problem

2012-04-12T17:05:00.000+07:00

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CEjmo_qT4yQendofvid [starttext]If you have no power at the pump fuse then you have a fusible link problem. I believe these are attached to the starter battery post. Maybe you left one off when you did the tranny or you connected one to the wrong post. All fusible links must go to starter battery post. The post that has the positive battery cable. [endtext]

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uhaG1SMP_gYendofvid [starttext]Everything you said is true. I had the same problem with mine. Th old ford fuel filter in the side has O rings on the gaskets. I had someone install an aftermarket fuel filter housing. There's no O rings on it like the stock filter. My truck fires up all the time now. [endtext]

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ePrFUpwJD9Eendofvid [starttext]the engine was devolped by isuzu. one of the best manufactures of diesel engines. the engines are made at gm plants along with the trucks in flint michigan. i would personaly have an engine designed by japs and made in america that runs like a champ other than a piece of shit that is changed every few years because ford cant get it right. the 6.6L platfroum has had minimal changes in over a decade. it is an all made in the usa truck and it is not cheep like fords [endtext]

Testing a car starter (solenoid and motor)

2012-03-18T13:25:00.002+07:00

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1WQlATTWKJcendofvid [starttext]I assume you've already looked at the other videos on testing a solenoid; if not, there are some good methods for checking the viability of the circuit before and after the starter posted by expertvillage.If you apply power directly to the solenoid with a return ground from the solenoid, you should see the starter motor pop out but not spin. If you connect to the motor directly and bypass the solenoid, the motor will spin but not extend.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mnDZfDwQnngendofvid [starttext]I was driving home in the dark doing about 60 on a deserted back road when the truck shut completely down - engine, headlights and everything. Managed to get off the road without killing myself and tore the truck apart today. This is what I found. Previous owner did this wonderful wiring job. [endtext]
