Eh I used to make a lot of money on dash/interior jobs.

It’s supposed to actuate the ac mode doors

2018-08-15 18:48:33 UTC  

However it will not self adjust the modes no matter what we try

2018-08-15 18:48:43 UTC  

It is supposed to do it automatically

2018-08-16 03:12:16 UTC  

If you are meaning you replaced the motor and it is still doing that sounds like you have a control module problem.

2018-08-16 03:12:32 UTC  

Or possibly the wrong motor.

2018-08-16 18:54:12 UTC  

No the gears weren’t in time

2018-08-16 18:55:16 UTC  

the actual mechanism that controls the doors was blocked with a penny? (Lol) within the AC air flow chambers that run from the fan, which didn’t allow the doors to return to default position when the power to them is off so it didn’t allow the gears which are tied to the AC mode doors to meet in the proper position so it wouldn’t switch off the defrost as the gear was not able to move the mode door actuator receiver mechanism to its fullest extent, thus the AC mode doors were left open.

I think it’s off balance lol

Only true mechanics will know what happened lol

2018-08-22 18:34:48 UTC  

@JesseJames This is a Holley 4 Barrel. What is this electric connection for?

2018-08-22 18:35:24 UTC  

That’s an electric choke

2018-08-22 18:38:05 UTC  

If that weren’t connected, could that explain my fuel riddle?

2018-08-22 19:35:22 UTC  

Oh no it is just for cold starts.

2018-08-22 20:30:51 UTC  

🤔

2018-08-22 20:31:10 UTC  

The mystery continues

2018-08-23 01:07:12 UTC  

Darn I hadn’t heard anything about it for a bit thought you may have fixed it. Didn’t you replace the carb again?

2018-08-23 01:29:49 UTC  

I held off because I’d have to replace the intake manifold to fit the stock carb

2018-08-23 08:32:58 UTC  

Whenever I turn my car off my headlights stay on, even if I manually turn the lights to "off" instead of "auto"
My temporary fix has been manually disconnecting the battery when I turn the car off and reconnecting it when I need to drive again.
I've done basic work on various vehicles for years but I've never seen an issue like this.

2018-08-23 14:58:19 UTC  

If I had to guess I would guess it’s your headlight switch. But would have to do some tests to verify.

2018-08-23 14:59:24 UTC  

I love new parts.

Question for mechanics from a car novice: have an 03 Honda Civic with a crack in the radiator. Honda is going to charge me an arm and a leg for another one. What’s a good place/website to find new or slightly used parts and also ensure it’s exactly what I need

2018-09-17 19:42:34 UTC  

Thanks in advance

Junk yard

2018-09-17 19:55:07 UTC  

U pull and pay

2018-09-17 19:56:47 UTC  

I was going to say the same thing if you have tools. Honestly you shouldn't need much experience to pull a radiator.

2018-09-17 19:57:28 UTC  

You don't really need much for tools either.

2018-09-17 20:41:09 UTC  

Thanks guys, I’ll post an update soon

2018-09-23 18:20:22 UTC  

Update: found a new radiator with a lifetime warranty for a quarter of the dealership price. Took a few hours to get the old one out and new one in. Thought the crack in the old radiator was about an inch wide, turned out to be about three inches (couldn’t see the whole thing until the bumper was off).

2018-09-23 23:51:33 UTC  

Well done

2018-09-24 00:46:56 UTC  

Very nice

2018-09-25 17:10:59 UTC  

So I put some 12" apes on my bike and all the stock cables are long enough except for the brake line. Any advice on how to free up any slack to try and make it reach? I might just end up replacing the line and build my own custom length but just curious if anyone had any experience with this or could offer any tips. Thanks! <@&435155863217504256>

2018-09-26 04:20:36 UTC  

Took the brake line out of the restraint under the triple tree and unscrewed one of the two line holders. Got enough slack to make it work 👌🏻

Ignore the wirenuts, I'm installing a new accessory light switch and that's the temporary connection to verify it worked properly.

2018-09-26 16:02:58 UTC  

@@Sonic I'm a lil more triggered imagining working in the cozy little shack lol. Nice work.

2018-09-26 18:05:03 UTC  

Haha thanks
