In this video I have a look at a customers 2017 GMC Canyon with the big 3.6. It had a customer complaint of ABS light on. I looked at it for them and determined the magnet on the bearing was M.I.A. and I also suggested replacing the front hose due to rust.

@LeverPhile Год назад

@@rickcoleman8903 I've heard the opposite, that wd-40 attracts fish.

@diablo7322000 Год назад

It's about reduced interfacial tension. WD-40 is likely using a non-ionic surfactant similar to what is used in shampoo to emulsify water and allow the flow of the WD-40 spray to displace the emulsified water. If you're interested go read the lab reports from when it was invented, it's long, but explains everything.

@kevinsmyth364 Год назад

It does displace water, however immersing an object coated with wd40 in water will eventually remove the wd40 as it is only adsorbed onto to the surface, not chemically bonded or absorbed.

@wastelander89 Год назад

@SonomaAroma707 it displaces water but it's not hydrophobic coating thay keeps water off.

@lgh081960 Год назад

Just had a flashback of when I worked at a Chrysler dealership in the 1980s. I worked parts for the shop and a seasoned mechanic asked me to help bleed the brakes on a New Yorker. Customer had shop privilege and was watching like a hawk. Mechanic told him to move back so he wouldn't get sprayed by the fluid but he insisted on staying put. The mechanic just shook his head and told me pump on the pedal "hard". Customer got the ultimate Dot 3 brake fluid golden shower. Thanks for the memory trigger Eric.

Even here in Florida, galvanic corrosion can make life difficult. For example, I had to replace the front wheel bearing on my car. And I had to put it in a hydraulic press, because the bearing/hub unit was rust-welded into the knuckle. Even the press was struggling. When it finally let go, it sounded like a gunshot.

@jimm2442 Год назад

I spent 35 years as an ASE Certified Master Technician with a CA Smog License , (being a mechanic is how I made my living all those years). I worked for 15 years at an independent shop specializing in Mazda's Honda's & Toyotas (1976 to 1990). I spent the next 20 years working for a city in the Bay Area of California. There, we serviced and repaired everything the city owned, turf equipment, fire trucks, police vehicles, 5 and 10 yard dump trucks, tanker trucks, light and medium duty trucks, street sweepers, the bookmobile, electric vehicles and cars. I honestly do not know if I would have chosen that trade if we had the rust and corrosion issues I see in your videos. That kind of work poses enough challenge but when you add rust and corrosion to that degree you have so much more to deal with. These trucks i see on your channel that are 10 years old and the body and frames are rusted through we never ever see any of that. In the 80's I had a 1950 Ford F1 that lived its entire life in CA and there was no rust on it al all. We just don't have that issue with our vehicles. Even now in retirement and living in the Sierra Mountains where is snows we do not see that. I am blown away by the rust in your part of the country. All the best to you, hang in there retirement comes sooner than you think, stay safe!
