1
00:00:06,759 --> 00:00:11,240
Oh, Tom, you know what. I love my friend, but I

2
00:00:11,320 --> 00:00:14,400
love a part two of a podcast
where we've all the heavy lifting done in

3
00:00:14,439 --> 00:00:17,359
the first one, and now that
people come along for the part two,

4
00:00:17,359 --> 00:00:19,600
we can just be like, yeah, you know what you're here for.

5
00:00:19,960 --> 00:00:22,800
Yeah, yeah, there's no gid
up go, there's no explaining ourselves,

6
00:00:22,839 --> 00:00:26,359
there's no nothing. Then, Plus
what we ate nine episodes into this series,

7
00:00:26,399 --> 00:00:28,600
so at this stage people would have
gone, Okay, we know the

8
00:00:28,640 --> 00:00:31,679
Craig, we know the Craig.
They're on this train. I are not.

9
00:00:31,800 --> 00:00:36,280
This is keep it between the ditches
Part two, part ladies and gentlemen's

10
00:00:36,280 --> 00:00:39,960
and our non binary friends. Indeed, you're all very welcome to the Tom

11
00:00:40,000 --> 00:00:44,079
and Jerry Show, where Tom is
going to be bringing us through even more

12
00:00:44,359 --> 00:00:48,799
of the mysteries of the motor car, including Tom. I'm hoping why fucking

13
00:00:49,159 --> 00:00:54,560
wiper blades are sixty fucking euro for
some reason? Yes, I hope that's

14
00:00:54,640 --> 00:00:59,359
number one on the agenda because I
remember them things literally, it's a swear

15
00:00:59,399 --> 00:01:03,280
to god. It is the next
right, Yeah, it's right there,

16
00:01:03,359 --> 00:01:06,040
Yes, I got it here.
I'm fucking pre empty gym. Sorry,

17
00:01:06,079 --> 00:01:08,519
pably, he's ahead of anybody,
but that's a particular fucking bug bear of

18
00:01:08,560 --> 00:01:12,599
mine, just for the small few
people who have jumped into this one accidentally,

19
00:01:12,599 --> 00:01:15,519
because that can happen. You can
end up with, you know,

20
00:01:15,519 --> 00:01:17,920
in the Two Towers or Turn of
the King and all that, and go

21
00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:21,280
what the fuck and then you're supposed
to watch the Hobbit and fucking pre remember

22
00:01:21,319 --> 00:01:25,480
stuff. Look at just in case
you every kid's comic book is some kids

23
00:01:25,519 --> 00:01:27,519
force comic book Stanley. Yeah.
Yeah, So if you ended up here

24
00:01:29,120 --> 00:01:32,400
and you didn't go back to quickly
recap or you kind of listen to it

25
00:01:32,480 --> 00:01:34,760
quickly and you went and you give
it a week or two. In between,

26
00:01:34,439 --> 00:01:38,400
we went mostly through the basics of
tire. Tires are so important.

27
00:01:38,760 --> 00:01:44,000
We went the idea of that.
We went through the changing of oil seemed

28
00:01:44,040 --> 00:01:46,439
to be a big one, but
that is a big that's a big moment.

29
00:01:46,480 --> 00:01:49,719
And maintain your your car, I
mean, aside from the the other

30
00:01:49,400 --> 00:01:53,000
usual products that burn up on your
car. That's a that's a very very

31
00:01:53,000 --> 00:01:57,840
important one for maintain your engine.
And if yours finding oil or iron filings,

32
00:01:57,840 --> 00:02:02,000
metal filings, and you're in watchings
because well you haven't been looking after

33
00:02:02,040 --> 00:02:07,040
your oil. Simple as that if
I gotta tell you something, Tom,

34
00:02:07,079 --> 00:02:10,479
since you brought us through the principles
of oil changing and showed us just how

35
00:02:10,680 --> 00:02:15,240
absolutely easy and cost effective it is
to change your oil. Since you taught

36
00:02:15,280 --> 00:02:21,919
me that last week. Mm hmm, I've seriously considered it. But that's

37
00:02:22,439 --> 00:02:23,800
people. You have no idea how
big of a thing that is. Because

38
00:02:23,840 --> 00:02:27,560
for Jerry too seriously consider something,
he probably will go and do it.

39
00:02:27,599 --> 00:02:30,560
But if Jerry just is impressed by
something, he'll still hand it over to

40
00:02:30,599 --> 00:02:32,680
a professional. You know what I
mean. He's oh, yeah, yeah,

41
00:02:32,719 --> 00:02:37,520
yeah, yeah, yeah. I
wanted. I wanted to try your

42
00:02:37,599 --> 00:02:39,360
method of change and tires so much. I near you went out and slash

43
00:02:39,400 --> 00:02:43,120
my own tires, Tom, just
to have something to change. I didn't

44
00:02:43,159 --> 00:02:44,879
quite get there yet. Yeah,
I know, I get it, I

45
00:02:44,919 --> 00:02:47,080
get it. But look at we
went. What we are doing in this

46
00:02:47,159 --> 00:02:52,159
episode same as we did in the
last one. It's I'm not I ain't

47
00:02:52,199 --> 00:02:54,319
no rocket surgeon, nor I'm not
your mechanic, And I will tell you

48
00:02:54,400 --> 00:02:58,759
the things that you should most definitely
go to your mechanic for break pads.

49
00:02:58,800 --> 00:03:01,879
Don't try and learn how to just
take the mechanic. There are certain things

50
00:03:01,879 --> 00:03:06,000
you just won't be able to tackle
yourself, or I wouldn't suggest you tackling

51
00:03:06,039 --> 00:03:09,120
yourself. These are just things to
just keep your keep yourself sharp, to

52
00:03:09,159 --> 00:03:14,759
make sure that you can't. You're
not the bollocks who's clipped into a peer

53
00:03:15,400 --> 00:03:19,560
or broken down the motorway when I
just don't know what happened, because chances

54
00:03:19,639 --> 00:03:23,319
are it was happening in a while
out almost nothing in the car by itself

55
00:03:23,360 --> 00:03:25,919
would happen suddenly, do you know
what I mean it? You know you're

56
00:03:25,919 --> 00:03:30,400
gonna throw another saying in here,
Tom, it's better to prevent a thing

57
00:03:30,479 --> 00:03:31,479
than it is to try and cure
it. So yeah, you know,

58
00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:35,240
you can make sure your car doesn't
break down on the side of the road,

59
00:03:35,479 --> 00:03:38,120
and it's the hell of a lot
better than trying to fix it on

60
00:03:38,159 --> 00:03:42,719
the side of the road. Well
fifty, you don't wake up with gout,

61
00:03:43,080 --> 00:03:46,120
you know what I mean? You
know suddenly, you know, come

62
00:03:46,159 --> 00:03:50,520
off a fucking ultramarthon and have gout
you know, or have been just a

63
00:03:50,680 --> 00:03:53,919
really good, well maintained person and
go Now I've got fucking you know,

64
00:03:54,120 --> 00:03:57,960
my tone needs to come off because
I've just been eating too much fucking show.

65
00:03:58,080 --> 00:04:00,520
No, you haven't been maintained yourself. I'm not telling you how to

66
00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:03,919
maintain yourself. I don't give a
fuck. I'd have more time for maintain

67
00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:10,759
your car. Yeah, so onward
into it and form the day Tom.

68
00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:14,159
So I'm gonna fucking learn some ship
here, buddy, you are in the

69
00:04:14,360 --> 00:04:15,279
rare from I can tell by you
you've got a head of a man for

70
00:04:15,399 --> 00:04:18,360
learning. Here's one I tell you, and I'm only I'm only a recent

71
00:04:18,399 --> 00:04:23,560
convert and I never mentioned it should
it would fall under the tire category that

72
00:04:23,680 --> 00:04:30,920
I didn't say last week it was
I found a tremendous help is an electric

73
00:04:30,959 --> 00:04:35,959
pump for your tires going through?
Oh yeah, okay, go hit he

74
00:04:36,319 --> 00:04:40,879
has been a tom And then I'll
hit you with like what ifs Well,

75
00:04:40,959 --> 00:04:43,839
here's the thing, like you have
one, like it's always good to have

76
00:04:43,879 --> 00:04:46,600
it in the boot right now.
You could have a slow puncture. You're

77
00:04:46,639 --> 00:04:48,199
on a country road, there's no
petro station, it's four o'clock in the

78
00:04:48,199 --> 00:04:51,319
morning, and you're going, fuck
that. That tire feels a bit fucking

79
00:04:51,319 --> 00:04:56,040
spongy. You give it a pump, maybe take it over the twenty six

80
00:04:56,120 --> 00:04:59,519
PSI, like I told you where
you'll find how much pressure to put into

81
00:04:59,519 --> 00:05:01,240
your car. It give it to
you in ba ar bar, or'll give

82
00:05:01,240 --> 00:05:05,720
you in psi. You could have
twenty eight psi on the front because of

83
00:05:05,720 --> 00:05:10,600
the heavy engine, you know,
twenty six on the back. Maybe take

84
00:05:10,639 --> 00:05:13,959
it to thirty just to get you
over the line down the road A small

85
00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:16,240
but yeah, you shouldn't really be
in that position. But what I'm saying

86
00:05:16,279 --> 00:05:19,319
is it's no harm in having benda. Just if you have cut yourself.

87
00:05:19,360 --> 00:05:21,879
I'm not saying you should be fucking
going out of their cut yourself boat.

88
00:05:23,519 --> 00:05:26,680
It's the same thing, no harm
to have one. Maybe the car set

89
00:05:26,720 --> 00:05:29,600
up for a while after the fucking
you can hold this parked in the airport

90
00:05:29,639 --> 00:05:30,959
to come back and fucking one of
the tires that you didn't know how to

91
00:05:30,959 --> 00:05:34,360
slow punctu or you drove over something. You come back and you're like,

92
00:05:34,399 --> 00:05:39,160
oh, for fox sake that twenty
six quid that you gave for that fucking

93
00:05:39,160 --> 00:05:42,600
thing. You can find a menality, you can get them online. Yeah,

94
00:05:42,639 --> 00:05:46,519
you plug it into still the cigarette, yes, probably a cigarette later.

95
00:05:46,879 --> 00:05:47,639
Yeah. I U's the thing with
Tom, like you know, I

96
00:05:47,639 --> 00:05:51,399
I don't know if anybody still lights
a cigarette off the cigarette lader or is

97
00:05:51,439 --> 00:05:58,839
that just like our gateway to charge
on your phone? And you're fucking yeah,

98
00:05:59,040 --> 00:06:03,000
I don't. I can't see who
else like used to be. I'd

99
00:06:03,040 --> 00:06:06,560
be hard stuck. But I mean
they haven't gotten rid of them so and

100
00:06:06,560 --> 00:06:12,560
they haven't taken the little fag symblem
off the fucking thing, so somebody's still

101
00:06:12,639 --> 00:06:15,240
lighting. I'd love to light a
big cigar off one. Do you know,

102
00:06:15,720 --> 00:06:17,720
not a fag but a big cuban. I know, I know.

103
00:06:17,759 --> 00:06:24,360
I think Eric Carr has like there's
no cigarette light or bit that comes out

104
00:06:24,399 --> 00:06:27,040
of it, but the port is
there with like a little cap over it.

105
00:06:27,720 --> 00:06:30,920
And I'll tell you what's better again, Tom, here's one in the

106
00:06:30,920 --> 00:06:32,920
boot as well. Yeah. Oh
they're a gift. I want to know.

107
00:06:34,199 --> 00:06:36,360
Oh I've won in the boot.
I'll tell you now, Jerry,

108
00:06:36,399 --> 00:06:40,720
I had a land cruise of years
ago that the guy before me had fitted

109
00:06:40,759 --> 00:06:46,480
with an air compressor, a powerful
air compressor inside the engine to run off

110
00:06:46,480 --> 00:06:49,600
the engine. Yeah, he'd fitted
farmers. Farmers used to do it years

111
00:06:49,639 --> 00:06:51,959
ago, and then of course it
went out of fashion. I don't know

112
00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:57,639
why, because loads and loads of
tools run off air compressors, loads of

113
00:06:57,720 --> 00:07:00,040
to my I'd imagine, in the
words of Frank the Tank in old school,

114
00:07:00,079 --> 00:07:04,240
there's no way this is street legal
time. I guess maybe, but

115
00:07:05,279 --> 00:07:10,120
I don't know. I guess now, with maybe twelve volt outlets all over

116
00:07:10,160 --> 00:07:12,680
the fucking car, maybe you could
plug in a half decent. I don't

117
00:07:12,720 --> 00:07:15,879
know. For the For the gear
heads out there, if you've got an

118
00:07:15,920 --> 00:07:18,000
air compressor built into the engine of
your car that you did yourself, let

119
00:07:18,079 --> 00:07:20,600
us know in the comments. But
these were all I remember guys doing that

120
00:07:20,639 --> 00:07:24,720
in the indie. But these were
tastely, tastefully done, like a nice

121
00:07:24,759 --> 00:07:29,360
neat little tank inside there. And
you know what it's. It sounds like

122
00:07:29,519 --> 00:07:32,399
it sounds like fast and the furious
time, like the nose tanks wired up

123
00:07:32,439 --> 00:07:34,519
to the engine you're looking at.
You're like, oh my god, is

124
00:07:34,519 --> 00:07:38,199
that a NOZ tank wired up to
your land cruiser engine? That it's a

125
00:07:38,199 --> 00:07:45,879
fucking air compressor for blowing up paddling
pools and ship I don't know what I

126
00:07:45,959 --> 00:07:48,399
know. I know that's that's you
after running air wrench off. But yeah,

127
00:07:48,439 --> 00:07:50,560
you can run it off, the
air compressor, would you. I

128
00:07:50,600 --> 00:07:54,879
tell you one thing, that little
air pump. You will find a bunch

129
00:07:54,920 --> 00:07:58,160
of uses for it because the nozzles
do fitted for pumping up the kids pool,

130
00:07:58,199 --> 00:08:01,480
pumping up the kids, the boys
first bike. We put it together

131
00:08:01,519 --> 00:08:03,800
the other day. He was chuffed
the bit we ran it off off the

132
00:08:03,839 --> 00:08:07,360
air the are you got it?
A cigarette light? It was perfect.

133
00:08:07,839 --> 00:08:13,199
I hadn't driven my land Rover in
three months. Putting our back on the

134
00:08:13,240 --> 00:08:16,680
road soon pumped the tires tube had
gone down, cranked them up, cranked

135
00:08:16,680 --> 00:08:20,000
it up and they're big old tires. There's a lot of air to go

136
00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:22,279
into those fucking things. Cranked it
up in forty five seconds. It's like

137
00:08:22,360 --> 00:08:28,240
this thing sweating, no sweating.
It has a little for actually blowing out

138
00:08:28,240 --> 00:08:31,000
the dust out of the Oh it's
just nice. Twenty six quid, twenty

139
00:08:31,039 --> 00:08:33,879
six quid and and you know what, it goes wrapped up perfect and goes

140
00:08:33,919 --> 00:08:37,559
back into the pack every time.
Perfect. You know. Round about now,

141
00:08:37,600 --> 00:08:39,440
Tom, if we had affiliates,
we'll be saying, and you can

142
00:08:39,519 --> 00:08:45,279
use the Toma Jerry cool, Yeah, and g to get ten percent off

143
00:08:45,279 --> 00:08:48,559
whatever the fuck this thing is.
Bell make a good one, Bell,

144
00:08:48,679 --> 00:08:52,879
make a good one. But you
listen, they ain't a whole pilot components

145
00:08:52,919 --> 00:08:54,080
to it. Once you mind it, and you're like, you're not gonna

146
00:08:54,120 --> 00:08:56,759
be using it commercially, your years
of once in a blue moon, but

147
00:08:56,799 --> 00:09:00,639
that blue moon time you use it, you'll be so fucking glad you had

148
00:09:00,639 --> 00:09:03,120
it. Now, did you ever
have a Did you ever have drink a

149
00:09:03,159 --> 00:09:05,559
beer with a slice of orange in
the tom? Oh? I certainly did.

150
00:09:05,759 --> 00:09:09,960
I certainly did. I was partial
to a blue moon back in the

151
00:09:09,679 --> 00:09:15,320
al moon. Yeah, now here, Okay, that's enough shite talk.

152
00:09:15,399 --> 00:09:18,840
Let's show me how to drive a
car here, tom for it. Anyway,

153
00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:22,919
moving on to what you came up
with. You first questioned was wiper

154
00:09:22,960 --> 00:09:26,639
blades. And I wrote this down, right, I wrote this down.

155
00:09:26,879 --> 00:09:30,879
There's certain things I wrote down,
like when I was fucking I was writing

156
00:09:30,879 --> 00:09:33,960
this down gone, So there's no
point in writing this fucking thing down.

157
00:09:33,000 --> 00:09:37,440
But everybody knows when I wracked my
brain going, I was in and auto

158
00:09:37,480 --> 00:09:43,840
mechanics and I see people drown,
ask people pulling in and paying the man

159
00:09:45,320 --> 00:09:48,720
to put fucking wipers and he taking
money off them, He taking money off

160
00:09:48,799 --> 00:09:52,759
him to put fucking wipers on the
car. You're like, what in the

161
00:09:52,840 --> 00:10:00,320
fuck? Now, look the literally
the instructions. It has gotten so easy

162
00:10:00,360 --> 00:10:03,320
now Once you do it once,
you'll do it the same forever. Before

163
00:10:03,360 --> 00:10:07,240
you had to fucking unpinch this show, clip back that fucking yoke. These

164
00:10:07,320 --> 00:10:11,480
days it's literally flip a switch forward. You got a little hooked fucking bar,

165
00:10:13,159 --> 00:10:15,799
some of them, even on Volkswagen, it's just a shlap on a

166
00:10:15,799 --> 00:10:18,600
big fucking It's like a big lump
of licorice. You just it's the easiest

167
00:10:18,600 --> 00:10:22,720
thing in the world to clip on
a clip off. Take your time,

168
00:10:22,200 --> 00:10:26,919
do it yourself, and take some
fucking pride in it. Now your question

169
00:10:28,039 --> 00:10:31,399
as to why they're not fucking six
quid anymore, they're just fucking not.

170
00:10:31,960 --> 00:10:35,639
And here's the thing. If you
do a lot of fucking driving, don't

171
00:10:35,679 --> 00:10:39,919
pay more than Look, you're gonna
pay twenty two, probably because their different

172
00:10:39,919 --> 00:10:43,919
size is gonna pay twenty two and
twenty seven. So you're gonna be up

173
00:10:43,919 --> 00:10:46,080
there. You pay for the fucking
rear one, you're gonna be into the

174
00:10:46,120 --> 00:10:50,240
sixties. Mind them, fucking madness, But mind them, Jerry. The

175
00:10:50,320 --> 00:10:56,799
problem is people don't fucking mind.
I'm just I get you, I get

176
00:10:56,840 --> 00:10:58,720
you. But here's you, Tom, I'm just mad. No, I

177
00:10:58,720 --> 00:11:01,759
get it. The bosh ones,
they're fucking good. They are good.

178
00:11:01,919 --> 00:11:05,679
Like when you hit you hit heavy
rain, there's nothing to shift this ship,

179
00:11:05,879 --> 00:11:07,080
and they leave a nice, fucking
clean wind screen. Look, I'm

180
00:11:07,120 --> 00:11:09,840
just telling you, I'll give a
shit if you're driving a piece of fucking

181
00:11:09,960 --> 00:11:15,639
rust. If you get a decent
one, fucking mind it, and how

182
00:11:15,679 --> 00:11:18,919
you mind it. If you have
shit all over your fucking wind screen,

183
00:11:18,919 --> 00:11:22,000
Make sure you get that, because
I've seen people just throw on the fucking

184
00:11:22,000 --> 00:11:26,360
wipers and big dusty old wind screens
and all that stuff, because these things

185
00:11:26,360 --> 00:11:28,960
are so fine, they're just scraping
it off the worst of the whole lot.

186
00:11:30,279 --> 00:11:31,960
You see the poor cun sitting in
first thing in the morning and he's

187
00:11:33,000 --> 00:11:35,039
left the wipers on from the night
before, but it's frozen over fucking night,

188
00:11:35,399 --> 00:11:39,519
and now he's got a fucking sheet
of fucking rice Krispy fucking cake all

189
00:11:39,519 --> 00:11:43,919
over his windscreen and the wipers just
and that's your wipe. You may catch

190
00:11:43,000 --> 00:11:48,080
him and fuck him straight in over
the ditch. They're fucked, they're fucked,

191
00:11:48,639 --> 00:11:50,919
and that's it. Go out and
get new wipers immediately. You fucked

192
00:11:50,960 --> 00:11:56,200
them. So if i'm if I'm
hearing your I'm hearing your advice here correctly,

193
00:11:56,240 --> 00:12:05,840
Tom, it's that you favor not
having a dry wipe exactly. You

194
00:12:05,200 --> 00:12:09,960
want to you want to moisten the
lubricated wipe. Just hear I hear your

195
00:12:11,000 --> 00:12:13,200
brother, You hear it. Yeah, you know what you know what I

196
00:12:13,559 --> 00:12:16,679
well ahead, Yeah here, you
knew I was. I was that way

197
00:12:16,679 --> 00:12:20,000
inclined anyway. You know you don't
get enough, you don't you know,

198
00:12:20,080 --> 00:12:22,200
you cross a certain age and you
don't have enough fiber in your diet.

199
00:12:22,399 --> 00:12:26,960
The days of having a fucking dry
wipe or behind you. Here's the thing,

200
00:12:26,600 --> 00:12:30,200
do you ever shave? Just just
walk into the bathroom, just pick

201
00:12:30,240 --> 00:12:31,879
up a rais and just slap it
to your face, drunk, dragging ship

202
00:12:31,919 --> 00:12:35,960
across your face. No, you
fucking don't you fucking grease the wheel some

203
00:12:37,039 --> 00:12:41,480
bit to get that you You read
my mind, Tom, because I was

204
00:12:41,480 --> 00:12:45,759
gonna say, wiper blades are very
like razor blades. Again, I'm not

205
00:12:45,759 --> 00:12:48,440
doing a bit here, wiper blades
like rais of blades. I'm not.

206
00:12:48,720 --> 00:12:50,879
I'm not being that. No stays
behind me, Tom, don't drag me

207
00:12:50,919 --> 00:12:56,000
back, all right, but you
know you know when you need to change

208
00:12:56,039 --> 00:13:00,639
them, and it's usually after you
probably should have fucking changed them. And

209
00:13:00,759 --> 00:13:03,799
also, just like razor blades,
wiper blades are expensive because what the fuck

210
00:13:03,840 --> 00:13:07,639
else are you going to do?
What are you gonna do? Yeah,

211
00:13:07,879 --> 00:13:09,759
are you gonna make them? Are
you gonna chew rubber and ship them?

212
00:13:09,879 --> 00:13:13,120
No, you're not. You have
to buy them, so you have to

213
00:13:13,159 --> 00:13:15,159
buy them off. Also, if
you want to buy, you let razor

214
00:13:15,159 --> 00:13:18,799
blades to go on your Mac three
razor, You're gonna pay what we ask

215
00:13:18,879 --> 00:13:22,120
you for them. These look,
these are the simple things that I've learned

216
00:13:22,120 --> 00:13:26,519
the hard way down the line where
you're dragging that fucking cold, cheap bag

217
00:13:26,639 --> 00:13:28,320
across your face and you walk out
of the house and your fucking head is

218
00:13:28,399 --> 00:13:33,519
glowing like maybe if I just didn't
have I don't know, a packet of

219
00:13:33,639 --> 00:13:37,559
crisps twice, you know, three
times in the week. Yeah, you

220
00:13:37,679 --> 00:13:41,440
get the and you'll be you'll be
happier, trust me, you'll be happier

221
00:13:41,480 --> 00:13:45,440
in the fucking long run. It's
the same with the blades, and just

222
00:13:45,519 --> 00:13:48,639
fucking mind them. Know every time
you fucking turn on the car, know

223
00:13:48,679 --> 00:13:52,200
how much the fucking things cost you? Yeah, I get I guess like

224
00:13:52,240 --> 00:13:56,240
you know, Okay, I guess
before before I wipe the you know,

225
00:13:56,519 --> 00:13:58,679
turn them on when it's raining,
and I guess, okay, the windscreens

226
00:13:58,679 --> 00:14:01,000
wet and glides over that hand here. But if you just turn them on

227
00:14:01,080 --> 00:14:05,039
on a dirty window, give it
a little first, little squirt. I

228
00:14:05,080 --> 00:14:07,720
mean it sounds like such simple advice, Tom, but I'm telling you,

229
00:14:07,799 --> 00:14:11,000
these things are crossing sixty euro fucking
front and back. See, you may

230
00:14:11,039 --> 00:14:15,480
as well try and get to use
them. What that and the ice one

231
00:14:15,519 --> 00:14:20,600
is the most hilarious. Just drag
it across a far fox sake, would

232
00:14:20,600 --> 00:14:26,799
you ever go in that? No? No good, Why the fuck it?

233
00:14:26,799 --> 00:14:31,240
It's just it sounds simplicitic, But
look, don't then The number one

234
00:14:31,279 --> 00:14:35,159
thing is do not fucking pay somebody
to do them. Don't pay. That's

235
00:14:35,240 --> 00:14:37,480
yeah, the mystery is not there. Like there's no mystery. Look at

236
00:14:37,480 --> 00:14:39,919
the back of the pack. Take
your time and you'll get it. And

237
00:14:41,000 --> 00:14:43,480
once you do it once on your
car, you'll do it with your fucking

238
00:14:43,519 --> 00:14:46,039
eyes closed. The next time.
You can't fuck it up. You just

239
00:14:46,039 --> 00:14:48,759
gotta you gotta get in there and
get deep into that nook. That is

240
00:14:48,799 --> 00:14:52,600
the one time. Yeah, Because
they're the things are gonna cost you sixty

241
00:14:52,639 --> 00:14:54,519
quid and some lady's going to charge
your fucking twenty five quid to do it,

242
00:14:54,559 --> 00:15:00,759
and it takes two seconds. Same
go okay, same goes with headlights,

243
00:15:00,960 --> 00:15:03,559
Same goes with headlights, does not
go. Headlights Now I can change

244
00:15:03,600 --> 00:15:07,720
I can change wiper blades, I
suppose, But headlights are a mystery.

245
00:15:07,799 --> 00:15:13,879
Look again, it's a take your
time thing. Now look all the way

246
00:15:13,919 --> 00:15:16,559
across the board. No, you're
right, there are some cars like my

247
00:15:16,679 --> 00:15:22,840
own. My own. Opal is
an absolute fucking dickhead, an absolute fucking

248
00:15:22,919 --> 00:15:28,039
dickhead to get the fucking ball about
it. I mean, you wouldn't fucking

249
00:15:28,080 --> 00:15:33,320
believe the fucking the fuckery that went
on to this. These little fucking grub

250
00:15:33,360 --> 00:15:39,200
screw nuts with like hext seven hex
fucking sevens like only I have the fucking

251
00:15:39,240 --> 00:15:43,440
tools to take the fucking thing out. These should just reach in one hand,

252
00:15:43,720 --> 00:15:46,360
flip back the little open, twist
them out. I have. I

253
00:15:46,399 --> 00:15:50,600
have convoluted fucking ship that does go
on. That is maddening because I used

254
00:15:50,600 --> 00:15:54,399
to drive a car I think it
was a pont or some such where to

255
00:15:54,480 --> 00:15:56,600
change the headlights. If one might
went in and you squeezed a little what

256
00:15:56,600 --> 00:15:58,840
do you call the round clip.
It's not a sort clip, but it's

257
00:15:58,879 --> 00:16:04,039
not not a cirtclip either. Yeah
yeah, yeah yeah, rubber bunch of

258
00:16:04,120 --> 00:16:07,919
clip. So it's like it's like
a bulldog clip that would hold a bunch

259
00:16:07,919 --> 00:16:11,519
of papers again all intents and purposes. And you squeeze that and the whole

260
00:16:11,559 --> 00:16:14,159
thing about came out the housing with
the ball be in it. And you

261
00:16:14,200 --> 00:16:15,679
took the ball about put in your
ballbin and you put it back in.

262
00:16:17,039 --> 00:16:19,919
That's fine. You attempt to do
that on the car I'm driving right now,

263
00:16:21,000 --> 00:16:23,799
Tom, and it's turned this a
quarter circle left, pulled back a

264
00:16:23,919 --> 00:16:30,440
quarter inch turn a quarter circle left, rotate nights Indiana Jones were getting get

265
00:16:30,480 --> 00:16:33,720
into the fucking temple of doom faster
if when you change a ball on this

266
00:16:33,759 --> 00:16:37,879
thing, you summon a demon from
Hell that you owe your fucking sould.

267
00:16:38,960 --> 00:16:45,759
I used to company puzzle box from
Hell Razor. I iither fucking company of

268
00:16:45,840 --> 00:16:49,200
car, which I fucking hated.
It was a Ford focus and the whole

269
00:16:49,240 --> 00:16:55,039
headlight had to come out. They
instruct you from my car on the driver's

270
00:16:55,039 --> 00:16:59,879
side headlight. They instruct you,
waiting to hear this to not only you

271
00:17:00,080 --> 00:17:03,839
have to take off a wheel half
the wheel, take off the fucking flap

272
00:17:03,839 --> 00:17:07,400
inside it, take off the half
the fucking bumper to get into. Just

273
00:17:07,400 --> 00:17:11,920
remove. They're like, this is
get the fuck out of my face.

274
00:17:11,480 --> 00:17:15,759
You can do it. You can. There's two little heck fucking but go

275
00:17:17,079 --> 00:17:22,200
like you will be forgiven for taking
this one to the manufacturer two or to

276
00:17:22,319 --> 00:17:26,200
a garage. You'll be forgiven if
it is pure fuckery. But I would

277
00:17:26,240 --> 00:17:30,640
investigate it first. Don't just go
it's a I just because you can find

278
00:17:30,680 --> 00:17:33,880
some car manufacturers have made it easy. They've made it fucking easy because they

279
00:17:33,920 --> 00:17:37,599
want you to have fucking peace of
mind and get out of yourself in a

280
00:17:37,599 --> 00:17:40,640
bit of fucking pride in yourself.
But the fuckery that has gone on with

281
00:17:40,720 --> 00:17:42,559
some of them, where you know
they've done it on purpose. They could

282
00:17:42,559 --> 00:17:45,279
have there was bags of space to
move shit out of the way. You

283
00:17:45,359 --> 00:17:48,559
know they've done it on purpose so
that you do take it back to the

284
00:17:48,559 --> 00:17:52,680
main dealer or whatever. And that
is that's my car. But I know

285
00:17:52,799 --> 00:17:56,279
I will not be best that I
only changed the headline head bullbs the bulls

286
00:17:56,279 --> 00:18:00,200
the other day, but to have
to go out and get a heckt's like

287
00:18:00,240 --> 00:18:03,839
I had thankfully I had these long, long island keys. There were hecks,

288
00:18:03,880 --> 00:18:07,359
you know, the full bar of
hecks, but your average person wouldn't

289
00:18:07,359 --> 00:18:11,559
have them, would have a fucking
hecks six to open these time little nuts

290
00:18:11,559 --> 00:18:15,880
blindly. You'll be forgiven. But
I would investigates the like. I've never

291
00:18:15,920 --> 00:18:21,519
once taken one to the garage.
But what I'm saying is I have been

292
00:18:21,720 --> 00:18:25,240
almost at breaking point over the fury
of the fuckery that went on. So

293
00:18:25,279 --> 00:18:27,400
if you do meet a whole pile
of fuckery, and feel free to YouTube

294
00:18:27,480 --> 00:18:32,960
these and stuff like that. But
if you meet a whole pile of fuckery,

295
00:18:32,960 --> 00:18:36,000
you'll be forgiven. For what I
would do is I chance your fucking

296
00:18:36,079 --> 00:18:38,240
arm if you go to the don't
be bind your bubs. Don't be buying

297
00:18:38,240 --> 00:18:41,680
ship bulbs in the fucking marriage in
the petro station. Buy your fucking ones

298
00:18:41,680 --> 00:18:45,799
from the car accessory. You know
the car accessory crowds a lot of the

299
00:18:45,799 --> 00:18:48,759
time. You'll find a sound out
fucker. We'll keep chatting and go well,

300
00:18:48,920 --> 00:18:52,440
you wouldn't throw it thrown in for
me? There and chance to start

301
00:18:52,480 --> 00:18:55,759
them Them buys have done it a
million times. They're chatting away to you,

302
00:18:55,799 --> 00:18:59,200
fucking fuck one in there's you know
a lot of times those lads will

303
00:18:59,240 --> 00:19:03,359
do it for nothing because you know
you'll be back to And I said last

304
00:19:03,400 --> 00:19:04,440
week, Tom, I know you're
giving the tips, and I'm just giving

305
00:19:04,480 --> 00:19:10,359
it. Very incredibly fucking basic advice
that any child would know. When you

306
00:19:10,400 --> 00:19:12,359
do get the bulbs, the new
bulbs for your headlights, just taking note

307
00:19:12,400 --> 00:19:15,400
of what they are. Just taking
over of the code of them or whatever

308
00:19:15,400 --> 00:19:18,720
they are, so that you know
what to ask for next time you went

309
00:19:18,759 --> 00:19:21,440
to the shop and yours. You're
not like, oh, on the bulb

310
00:19:21,599 --> 00:19:27,680
for one seven one it looks no, I need a fucking code name bang

311
00:19:27,799 --> 00:19:30,960
done, And you might get a
wee bit of discount because you know what

312
00:19:30,000 --> 00:19:33,480
you're fucking doing. Yeah, people
tend to have more respect for you and

313
00:19:33,480 --> 00:19:37,359
over the counter when you know exactly
what bub it's. Speaking of tips with

314
00:19:37,440 --> 00:19:41,319
bulbs, if you are going out
it yourself, this is what I should

315
00:19:41,319 --> 00:19:45,160
have said at the fucking don there
at the top. Very important when it

316
00:19:45,160 --> 00:19:51,960
comes to car bulbs. Never ever
grab it by the glass right next yes

317
00:19:52,039 --> 00:19:55,839
yes, yes, yes, Your
fingerprints the oil and your fingerprints will become

318
00:19:56,039 --> 00:20:03,039
conductive to heat and boil the bulb
it'll boil the bulb. Not always put

319
00:20:03,319 --> 00:20:07,079
as little touching as possible with your
fucking hand. This is another reason why

320
00:20:07,079 --> 00:20:10,160
it's a bit of fuckery. You
know what, I mean to do this

321
00:20:10,279 --> 00:20:12,759
job, but if you can,
some of them are very sound. When

322
00:20:12,759 --> 00:20:15,759
you buy the expensive ones, they
actually come with a little bit of foamy

323
00:20:15,799 --> 00:20:21,279
stuff actually around the if you could
hold do you know what I mean,

324
00:20:21,359 --> 00:20:22,440
Or if you've got to get a
tissue, wrap it around it, but

325
00:20:22,640 --> 00:20:27,279
don't fucking touch with I remember that
advice Tom, for changing Halagen bulbs outside

326
00:20:27,279 --> 00:20:30,599
your house. Don't touch the classes
Yeah, the actual Yeah, very same.

327
00:20:32,279 --> 00:20:36,319
And if I could a bit of
advice here, guys, how do

328
00:20:36,359 --> 00:20:38,519
you know when you need to change
your bulbs unless you're like, you know,

329
00:20:38,720 --> 00:20:42,839
unless the car is driving towards your
or anything like that. A lot

330
00:20:42,880 --> 00:20:45,920
of the times in my life,
Tom, the first time I knew I

331
00:20:45,960 --> 00:20:49,039
needed a bulb was when a guard
told me. So I devised this little

332
00:20:49,079 --> 00:20:52,279
system. Maybe you do it,
or maybe you just know when you need

333
00:20:52,279 --> 00:20:53,279
bulbs, Tom, You know by
the light on the road. But I'm

334
00:20:53,359 --> 00:20:56,440
driving in the city here with all
the straight lights and everything, so it's

335
00:20:56,480 --> 00:21:00,200
hard I pick it up from the
road, because I'm in the country to

336
00:21:00,240 --> 00:21:03,480
know in the city when your bulbs
are right, because there's so much light

337
00:21:03,519 --> 00:21:07,319
around you. Real simple, tom. If I pull up outside the house

338
00:21:07,400 --> 00:21:11,279
at night, I run through a
quick cycle of the lights. Does it

339
00:21:11,279 --> 00:21:17,119
look right? Head lights dips,
full beams, indicator left, indicator right,

340
00:21:17,160 --> 00:21:18,400
and you can see it in the
reflection of the door in front of

341
00:21:18,440 --> 00:21:22,160
you. And if it looks you
will, like I mean, if if

342
00:21:22,200 --> 00:21:25,759
you have the right whatever, you
pull in yeah. Yeah. You don't

343
00:21:25,759 --> 00:21:27,079
have to do it every night,
once a week, you know, just

344
00:21:27,160 --> 00:21:32,240
pull up and go like left,
right, heads dips. Okay, right,

345
00:21:32,279 --> 00:21:36,920
we're good. Here's the thing with
all this stuff. You don't need

346
00:21:36,960 --> 00:21:40,160
to say. You don't need to
be as militarized as right on Monday nights,

347
00:21:40,160 --> 00:21:42,079
I check every course to you if
you have it in the back of

348
00:21:42,079 --> 00:21:45,079
your head, like anything. If
you haven't in the back of your head,

349
00:21:45,319 --> 00:21:48,759
you'll you'll know the one. It's
like a little fucking your own little

350
00:21:48,759 --> 00:21:52,119
diagnostic system will tell you here,
hey, yeah, yeah, yeah,

351
00:21:52,119 --> 00:21:53,480
you have a look at that fucking
thing. Something's not right there. And

352
00:21:53,559 --> 00:21:56,720
chances are if you feel it's not
right, there's a fair strong chance it

353
00:21:56,720 --> 00:22:03,119
ain't fucking right. So all these
are just save pund fine, so exactly

354
00:22:03,519 --> 00:22:07,119
now moving on to the likes of
you won't do this an awful lot,

355
00:22:07,160 --> 00:22:11,960
but if you did splash out and
go a bit fucking wild and become a

356
00:22:11,960 --> 00:22:15,079
bit nerdy like I do, and
by your own diagnostic now they used to

357
00:22:15,119 --> 00:22:18,160
be very expensive. Now they're super
cheap. You can get them again for

358
00:22:18,240 --> 00:22:22,720
like fifty sixty quid. You want
to plug in every so often to see

359
00:22:22,720 --> 00:22:26,000
if something's fucking not firing. If
it's not, it's not producing the right

360
00:22:27,279 --> 00:22:32,039
you know, fucking fuel to air
ratio and stuff, you know, things

361
00:22:32,079 --> 00:22:34,279
like that. Would you know you
might It may pick up in them a

362
00:22:34,279 --> 00:22:37,519
lot of time. It is your
spark plugs that aren't throwing a proper spark,

363
00:22:38,440 --> 00:22:42,119
if especially if it's slightly older car, if maybe a city car,

364
00:22:42,279 --> 00:22:45,200
where the carbon is getting attached,
you know, to the underside of the

365
00:22:45,240 --> 00:22:48,559
spark where it's not getting blown up
by going down the motorway. Same with

366
00:22:48,599 --> 00:22:53,880
your glow plugs with for diesel cars. Again, it's no harm to have

367
00:22:53,920 --> 00:22:56,559
one of these things, so at
least you don't get the fucking your pants

368
00:22:56,559 --> 00:23:00,359
pulled down when you go into the
mechanics. I'm not saying, go get

369
00:23:00,400 --> 00:23:04,200
yourself the fucking correct torque, fucking
you know, wrenching everything for doing spark

370
00:23:04,240 --> 00:23:08,119
plugs. But these are the things
where you go here, listen of my

371
00:23:08,400 --> 00:23:14,119
eight or you know whatever, spark
plugs or six spark plugs. Fucking one

372
00:23:14,119 --> 00:23:18,960
of them is it ain't fucking fire
and something. And at least then even

373
00:23:18,000 --> 00:23:22,000
if you have an honest mechanic,
he doesn't have to do a full diagnosty.

374
00:23:22,000 --> 00:23:23,160
He can go all right, I'll
go straight to that and see if

375
00:23:23,200 --> 00:23:26,559
that's the thing, you know what
I mean, if you have a good

376
00:23:26,559 --> 00:23:29,000
relationship with them. So these are
good things to be aware of. The

377
00:23:29,039 --> 00:23:33,400
spark plugs, that's what essentially creates
a little bomb inside your fucking engine six

378
00:23:33,440 --> 00:23:37,039
times or eight times or whatever,
how many times you have, how many

379
00:23:37,079 --> 00:23:41,519
spark plugs you have to drive the
pistons, which in turn drive your fucking

380
00:23:41,519 --> 00:23:44,480
wheels of your car. I mean, here's the thing, Tom, and

381
00:23:44,519 --> 00:23:48,720
I like it. Don't don't don't
get me wrong, like everything you're saying,

382
00:23:48,759 --> 00:23:52,680
Buddy, Okay, do you run
the risk of if you get into

383
00:23:55,480 --> 00:23:59,119
if you get into a garage and
you say, yeah, my left number

384
00:23:59,160 --> 00:24:02,960
six spark plug left on the rear
or whatever the fuck it is is acting

385
00:24:02,960 --> 00:24:04,640
the genet I need. Yeah,
I just need that. Do you run

386
00:24:04,640 --> 00:24:08,599
the wrist that you'll get a mechanic
that'll just be like, don't fucking tell

387
00:24:08,640 --> 00:24:11,720
me what it is, all right, I'm the mechanic. Hey, listen,

388
00:24:11,920 --> 00:24:17,119
listen, I'm gonna yeah. Thanks
for the my, my, thanks

389
00:24:17,119 --> 00:24:18,920
to the peanut gallery. Now why
don't you just fucking sit there and let

390
00:24:18,920 --> 00:24:22,319
the professional hey listen, like everything. If you come in with the right

391
00:24:22,359 --> 00:24:26,759
attitude and say, look, look, would you mind having a look at

392
00:24:26,079 --> 00:24:30,400
no expert. Well, I have
a funny feeling she ain't firing, right,

393
00:24:32,000 --> 00:24:33,920
Could it be a spark plug?
You reckon? You know what I

394
00:24:33,960 --> 00:24:36,559
mean? Leave it in their ego. Don't go in there, Hey,

395
00:24:37,079 --> 00:24:38,799
I need you to get in there
and under that engine and go to number

396
00:24:38,880 --> 00:24:42,799
two. I just know I wouldn't
have I wouldn't have appreciated people like that

397
00:24:42,960 --> 00:24:47,880
in the shop coming in to me
for end. But box clever, Jerry,

398
00:24:48,039 --> 00:24:49,079
you know what I mean. If
they came in and went I started

399
00:24:49,119 --> 00:24:52,400
telling you your job, you'd say, all right, well you know where

400
00:24:52,400 --> 00:24:53,599
you can fucking go, But don't
go in and tell the person their job

401
00:24:55,200 --> 00:24:57,519
just at least point them in the
right direction that you go, this is

402
00:24:57,519 --> 00:25:00,319
what I'm feeling, So you don't
go, I have a funny engine,

403
00:25:00,359 --> 00:25:03,960
gnice bang, and he's going,
I listen, I'm up to my tits.

404
00:25:04,000 --> 00:25:07,759
What where is it coming from?
Do you know what I mean?

405
00:25:07,839 --> 00:25:10,359
Well, here's where I think it's
coming from. It's coming from where the

406
00:25:10,359 --> 00:25:14,039
fuck is bark club? You know? And and Tom, you know what

407
00:25:14,079 --> 00:25:17,079
I mean? Like I like that
and again again a lot of this is

408
00:25:17,119 --> 00:25:18,640
like, you know, helping him
out on his day's work, so at

409
00:25:18,720 --> 00:25:22,480
least he knows what to look for
rather than you know, a complete exactly.

410
00:25:22,839 --> 00:25:26,759
And the other thing is like,
you know, maybe that might cut

411
00:25:26,759 --> 00:25:32,599
down his workload and it might end
up a little bit cheaper for you.

412
00:25:32,720 --> 00:25:36,079
Okay, I can. Yeah,
They're not like I don't want to paint

413
00:25:36,079 --> 00:25:40,079
mechanics in any bad light here and
a lot of great mechanics. It's just

414
00:25:40,440 --> 00:25:42,720
if you have a very honest mechanic
and somebody who've had a good relationship with

415
00:25:44,519 --> 00:25:48,039
no harm to go Morris, there's
fucking wrong, shame't fucking fire and right,

416
00:25:48,119 --> 00:25:52,400
fucking black smoke coming out the back
end of it and some funny fucking

417
00:25:52,400 --> 00:25:56,519
sound coming from I could be fucking
wrong here, but I think it might

418
00:25:56,559 --> 00:25:59,920
be a spar I can be wrong. That's all the hallmarks have a mess

419
00:26:00,000 --> 00:26:04,839
iron spark plunks, you got damn
right. So I'm just saying no harm

420
00:26:04,880 --> 00:26:08,759
to be for for for what armed
is forewarned. You don't know that kind

421
00:26:08,759 --> 00:26:15,359
of way as much about knowing what
your car does and does not do as

422
00:26:15,440 --> 00:26:19,880
much, And that's as much you
know, learning how to communicate with human

423
00:26:19,920 --> 00:26:26,759
beings. Look at I just don't
want people driving around in a fucking mystery.

424
00:26:26,920 --> 00:26:30,240
Do you know? It absolutely blows
my tit. No, here's the

425
00:26:30,240 --> 00:26:33,000
thing. I'm in front of a
computer right now. At no point am

426
00:26:33,000 --> 00:26:36,319
I going to fucking want to open
the thing and see how it works.

427
00:26:36,319 --> 00:26:37,559
I don't give a fuck. But
at the same time, that kind of

428
00:26:37,640 --> 00:26:41,400
thing is never going to kill me. Sure, it's never going to kick

429
00:26:41,480 --> 00:26:45,240
that's you know, that's what it
is. It's it's you just said it

430
00:26:45,279 --> 00:26:47,240
there. You don't want to be
driving around in a mystery, Tom,

431
00:26:47,279 --> 00:26:52,640
Like, what do you drive yourself? I drive a one nine ter puzzle?

432
00:26:52,880 --> 00:26:56,759
Yeah, hid have you seen my
new car? It's called fucking yeah,

433
00:26:57,079 --> 00:27:00,680
having a clue what goes on.
Yeah, so I appreciate that.

434
00:27:00,720 --> 00:27:03,880
Like now you say, like,
run a diagnostic on a tom and I'm

435
00:27:03,880 --> 00:27:07,559
sorry if you I'm sorry if you
if you ran past this and I just

436
00:27:07,599 --> 00:27:11,359
didn't pick it up. What do
you even fucking connect that machine too?

437
00:27:11,039 --> 00:27:14,960
Now here's here's the one. It's
a bit It looks like the you know

438
00:27:15,039 --> 00:27:18,960
the the they're not HDMI at the
back of the telly, you know the

439
00:27:18,960 --> 00:27:23,400
one that was used to pre skart. That's what it is. It's a

440
00:27:23,440 --> 00:27:27,039
scark cable. You'll normally find it
most cars inside the fag ash tree,

441
00:27:27,319 --> 00:27:33,799
inside the ash tray. Some you'll
find it just in the most weird just

442
00:27:33,920 --> 00:27:37,359
dangling underneath where the steering wheel,
the plastic under the under the steering wheel

443
00:27:37,480 --> 00:27:42,079
ends, you'll find it there.
It's normally hidden inside the fucking the I

444
00:27:42,079 --> 00:27:45,880
suppose the insert of one of the
compartments might be in the glove box.

445
00:27:47,559 --> 00:27:51,920
Very very easy to google this,
very easy. And okay, if I

446
00:27:52,200 --> 00:27:59,519
was to google this wearing my car
is the it's the diagnostic part diagnostic port.

447
00:27:59,640 --> 00:28:03,279
Okay, So just before you start
wrenching panels off your car looking for

448
00:28:03,319 --> 00:28:07,559
it. Yeah, they all it's
it's it's easy and it has to be

449
00:28:07,599 --> 00:28:11,000
easy to be got to. You
don't need to go unless there's pure bollocks

450
00:28:11,039 --> 00:28:14,000
of a brand has screwed it and
glued in for a place and don't want

451
00:28:14,039 --> 00:28:17,519
to go near it. It's I
mean, really, it should be out

452
00:28:17,519 --> 00:28:19,599
in the fucking engine with a cap
over it, but I guess they want

453
00:28:19,599 --> 00:28:23,440
to keep it clean. It's always
inside the car. Any car I've ever

454
00:28:23,480 --> 00:28:27,240
done, it's always been inside the
car. And it's it's interesting sometimes when

455
00:28:27,279 --> 00:28:30,480
you know what the little the little
you know and it's telling you, No,

456
00:28:30,599 --> 00:28:33,240
your car is running good, your
car's running fine. I don't.

457
00:28:33,519 --> 00:28:37,119
I haven't used the thing in six
months. Last time he used it was

458
00:28:37,119 --> 00:28:40,119
on the previous car. A light
came on, an engine light came on,

459
00:28:40,200 --> 00:28:45,920
and oh fuck, I just I
just looked up in old Cetron that

460
00:28:45,960 --> 00:28:51,039
I used to drive, and there's
a little door and I always wondered what

461
00:28:51,160 --> 00:28:53,519
it was, Tom, I always
wondered what it was. It's like steering

462
00:28:53,599 --> 00:28:57,160
column. There's like a little cap
there, like a little thing, little

463
00:28:57,200 --> 00:29:00,279
flat. It's like the it's like
the it's like the back of the remote

464
00:29:00,279 --> 00:29:03,319
control where the batteries are just a
little thing, and I often wonder what

465
00:29:03,400 --> 00:29:06,480
it was, and when you open
it, it was like, okay,

466
00:29:06,519 --> 00:29:10,000
well I have no business here,
and lo and behold it's the diagnostic box.

467
00:29:10,039 --> 00:29:14,240
So are hiding and playing sight Tom. Yeah, they literally aren't.

468
00:29:14,240 --> 00:29:15,759
It's nearly like a little mystery toe
and you end up finding you're like ha

469
00:29:15,759 --> 00:29:19,279
ha, And then it's kind of
like, I don't know. I suppose

470
00:29:19,480 --> 00:29:22,519
a bit of crack to plug it
in. Then a lot of the names

471
00:29:22,559 --> 00:29:23,680
and numbers and stuff coming up in
front of you go, I have a

472
00:29:23,720 --> 00:29:27,640
fucking clue if you have, if
you have an interest in finding, I

473
00:29:27,640 --> 00:29:30,880
wouldn't worry about it too much until
you see an engine light pop up?

474
00:29:30,960 --> 00:29:34,640
Right, and the engine light pop
up. Most cars will have some sort

475
00:29:34,680 --> 00:29:38,160
of warning light. They'll tell you
this is you know. Some have it

476
00:29:38,200 --> 00:29:41,440
now, even for tire pressure.
You know there's But if you have the

477
00:29:41,480 --> 00:29:45,400
little fucking triangle, the yell a
triangle comes up, there's your problem.

478
00:29:45,480 --> 00:29:49,480
Jesus Crest, get local. Now
here's the fucking thing I had. One

479
00:29:49,480 --> 00:29:52,799
of a code came up in mind
the other day. The sensor in the

480
00:29:52,839 --> 00:29:59,039
fucking water bottle for the for the
windscreen wipers was failing. I'm like,

481
00:29:59,079 --> 00:30:00,920
well, that's fine. I know
when I don't when I need water thanking

482
00:30:02,079 --> 00:30:03,799
right, do you know what I
mean? But it was it was this

483
00:30:03,839 --> 00:30:07,960
big fucking hooplan. It's coming on
every fucking time I started the car was

484
00:30:07,000 --> 00:30:11,119
like a jave of Christ. Tom. I'm like, okay, you need

485
00:30:11,160 --> 00:30:15,319
to fucking relax, car. It's
in the fucking water bottle. It's okay,

486
00:30:15,400 --> 00:30:18,839
I'll know, and I don't have
water and it ain't. It's just

487
00:30:18,880 --> 00:30:21,200
diagnostic too. And that I actually
just did a quick google here. I'm

488
00:30:21,240 --> 00:30:25,000
like, what do you call a
fucking what do you called? Joe Rogan's

489
00:30:25,039 --> 00:30:29,319
pile? The other little fucking dufe
is that Jamie Jamie's that is, Yeah,

490
00:30:29,359 --> 00:30:30,160
are you doing a Jamie? And
I'm doing a Jamie on it?

491
00:30:30,240 --> 00:30:33,000
Yeah. And it's a little you
know what, it's a lovely little machine.

492
00:30:33,039 --> 00:30:37,000
It's like twenty six quid for the
one that I see on Amazon.

493
00:30:37,480 --> 00:30:40,960
Oh lovely. Yeah, it looks
like a wonderful thing to buy putting a

494
00:30:41,039 --> 00:30:45,640
press and use on very rare occasions, very very poor. I can put

495
00:30:45,640 --> 00:30:48,319
it with my multimeter tone. Here's
the thing. I was able to wipe

496
00:30:48,359 --> 00:30:52,039
that fucking code completely off and it
doesn't come up. Now. That's that

497
00:30:52,119 --> 00:30:56,960
was my next thing, because I've
got all man of like codes coming up

498
00:30:56,039 --> 00:31:00,759
on my car that are not problems. It's like, oh, you have

499
00:31:00,920 --> 00:31:03,279
tire pressure such and such, and
I was like, no, I fucking

500
00:31:03,319 --> 00:31:07,559
don't, because I've settled, I've
balanced the tires and had them balanced professionally,

501
00:31:07,559 --> 00:31:08,720
and this code still comes up on. The guy at the garage was

502
00:31:08,799 --> 00:31:12,359
just like, ah, you know
sometimes that happens. Listen, if they

503
00:31:12,400 --> 00:31:15,160
give it again, if it gives
you a pain in your rocks, you're

504
00:31:15,160 --> 00:31:18,240
gonna be owning cars forever. This
will work it. Once upon a time

505
00:31:18,680 --> 00:31:22,319
you could have known one of these
things. You can only go to a

506
00:31:22,359 --> 00:31:26,960
garage. They had a big fucking
diagnostic machine like something. Remember that they

507
00:31:26,960 --> 00:31:32,799
would roll over to this. Now
here's the thing that you still do.

508
00:31:32,880 --> 00:31:37,519
Because they have the more, much
more in depth, the much more in

509
00:31:37,559 --> 00:31:41,799
depth, I suppose programs. They
will tell you way more than what the

510
00:31:41,839 --> 00:31:45,319
little handheld lad on Amazon will tell
you. You will have the general,

511
00:31:45,680 --> 00:31:49,279
the general fucking you know, look, SI, let's see what's what's overly

512
00:31:49,400 --> 00:31:53,039
wrong, but his one and he
will have it for all cars. He

513
00:31:53,200 --> 00:31:57,200
or she will have it for all
cars. Now, there are some yokes

514
00:31:57,240 --> 00:32:02,240
you may you can plug into and
they'll just go nah Nasan like Mitsubishi once

515
00:32:02,279 --> 00:32:07,119
upon a time, Jaguar once upon
a time. But I think they had

516
00:32:07,160 --> 00:32:10,519
to open borders after a while.
They had to go, Okay, we

517
00:32:10,599 --> 00:32:15,039
gotta. I think they kind of
by law had okay or worldwide mechanics have

518
00:32:15,079 --> 00:32:17,359
to have to be allowed to fucking
do this because you have to be allowed

519
00:32:17,400 --> 00:32:22,200
to go to whatever mechanic you want. This was absolutely cornering the market going,

520
00:32:22,440 --> 00:32:23,039
oh, you want to know what's
wrong with your car, you got

521
00:32:23,079 --> 00:32:27,119
to bring it to a main dealer. So I think they know I'm still

522
00:32:27,160 --> 00:32:30,279
open to fucking criticism on that one. The mechanics could be listening on.

523
00:32:30,400 --> 00:32:36,480
I can't get into a fucking a
Jetchia or Dessi or whatever they fucking called.

524
00:32:37,279 --> 00:32:39,519
But it's fun to have and no
harm for you to get one.

525
00:32:39,559 --> 00:32:43,880
Because if those simplistic things that are
giving you a pain in your tasts you

526
00:32:43,920 --> 00:32:45,440
get there, for twenty six years, you have here all these more or

527
00:32:45,480 --> 00:32:50,000
less these things that I'm talking about, You'll have them forever I'm here,

528
00:32:50,079 --> 00:32:52,000
Tom, I don't want to do
Jamie on it. If that is what

529
00:32:52,000 --> 00:32:53,720
that other fucking day his name is
here, okay, but this is from

530
00:32:53,720 --> 00:32:58,839
Mixed Garage dot I E again miscarriage
dot com. I beg your pardoner and

531
00:32:59,519 --> 00:33:01,359
I just him that make was irish. That's that's on me? He is,

532
00:33:01,440 --> 00:33:02,880
Yeah, I know he is.
He's only up the road for me.

533
00:33:04,119 --> 00:33:07,680
And it's this little like little iPod
of a thing and a scar cable

534
00:33:07,680 --> 00:33:13,440
to twenty six ninety five again use
the promo code Tom and Jerry to get

535
00:33:13,519 --> 00:33:22,559
fuck all off that and what the
hell right? It's you know what it

536
00:33:22,599 --> 00:33:31,000
does here Tom, And it retrieves
the vehicle identification number on on vehicles.

537
00:33:31,039 --> 00:33:36,240
And I had to get that done
because I lost the code of the radio

538
00:33:36,319 --> 00:33:40,640
because I replaced the fucking I think
it replaced the battery of the car wiped

539
00:33:40,680 --> 00:33:43,400
the code of the radio. And
they were like, oh, we can

540
00:33:43,440 --> 00:33:45,960
retrieve the code of the radio for
can you give us the vehicle identification number?

541
00:33:46,000 --> 00:33:50,359
And I was like, I can
give you the redge. They're like,

542
00:33:50,400 --> 00:33:52,400
no, stupid CAD. It's the
it's the v I N and you

543
00:33:52,480 --> 00:33:54,519
need the number. Yeah. I
was like, well where do I get

544
00:33:54,519 --> 00:33:57,920
that? Also? We can we
can we can retrieve that for you,

545
00:33:58,000 --> 00:34:01,880
and they charge me eighty pounds to
do that. Tom, okay, your

546
00:34:01,960 --> 00:34:07,319
fin number? Oh Jesus Christ.
Okay, but wasn't that something like that?

547
00:34:07,400 --> 00:34:09,679
Yeah? Yeah, okay. Well, if if it was something like

548
00:34:09,719 --> 00:34:12,320
that, I had to get a
code in there, like we'll get it

549
00:34:12,320 --> 00:34:15,719
fire for eighty I say, eighty
pounds eighty euros and here and here I

550
00:34:15,719 --> 00:34:22,280
could have spent eighty euros on this
thing and had fifty three euros change.

551
00:34:23,440 --> 00:34:27,840
You could have gotten a set of
fucking wiper blades afterwards. Yeah Jesus,

552
00:34:27,400 --> 00:34:30,880
time and free delivery for over fifty
grades. Podcast is saving people. I'm

553
00:34:30,960 --> 00:34:35,920
on money, by the way,
with these vehicle diagnostic tools. The next

554
00:34:35,960 --> 00:34:39,159
one is like a three and thirty
nine euro and it is a big eye

555
00:34:39,199 --> 00:34:43,519
prod of thing. I don't think
anybody needs that, Tom, No,

556
00:34:43,559 --> 00:34:45,400
I don't think anybody listening to this
podcast needs that. But this wee thing

557
00:34:45,480 --> 00:34:49,480
for twenty five euro I think I
might get. It's it's to put your

558
00:34:49,480 --> 00:34:52,239
mind at the ease when you get
if you get a big old fucking orange

559
00:34:52,239 --> 00:34:55,039
triangle coming up on the on this
on in the dashboard, probably not great.

560
00:34:55,039 --> 00:34:59,760
You should be bringing to you know, you should be but sometimes like

561
00:34:59,840 --> 00:35:04,000
my fucking you up with pistoner pansity
the other day over the sensor in the

562
00:35:04,000 --> 00:35:07,280
water bottle. Yeah, she can
relax for a while. That can relax.

563
00:35:07,320 --> 00:35:09,800
But if you open it up and
all of a sudden it says,

564
00:35:09,800 --> 00:35:14,719
you know, fucking bollocks falling out
of your car. You know you gotta

565
00:35:14,800 --> 00:35:17,280
your engine misfiring, Then, by
Jesus Christ, you've got to get it

566
00:35:17,360 --> 00:35:24,119
up to the up to the mechanic
all right, moving, okay, the

567
00:35:24,119 --> 00:35:29,000
power source of your car firing those
park players we talked about earlier. Car

568
00:35:29,039 --> 00:35:32,880
battery again, don't don't allow it
to be a fucking mystery. Don't allow

569
00:35:32,920 --> 00:35:37,719
it to be a mystery. You
can It's very easy to buy a car

570
00:35:37,760 --> 00:35:40,400
battery again. Car accessory crowds will
sell of you. Here's the thing.

571
00:35:40,519 --> 00:35:43,639
If you're going, I'll put it
in miss out. If you can get

572
00:35:43,679 --> 00:35:45,679
it done for fucking free again,
get your man to throw it in for

573
00:35:45,719 --> 00:35:49,440
you. Fucking things can be heavy
enough, awkward enough, but at the

574
00:35:49,480 --> 00:35:52,039
same time, if they're absolutely not
going to do it for you, do

575
00:35:52,239 --> 00:35:55,519
fear not. Fear fucking not.
It is not that fucking big of a

576
00:35:55,559 --> 00:36:00,599
deal you'll need Again, these are
all the you should have accumulated in life

577
00:36:00,599 --> 00:36:05,400
anywhere. But I'm not saying you
gotta get this. You gotta have a

578
00:36:05,400 --> 00:36:07,800
little socket set, a little set
of socket Look, Halford's twenty two euro

579
00:36:08,119 --> 00:36:10,960
again, mind it, you'll have
it forever. I wonderneath the desk there

580
00:36:10,960 --> 00:36:14,800
to de shiney for the last twelve
fucking years from Halford's. Do you know

581
00:36:14,800 --> 00:36:15,559
what I mean? It was?
I think it was twelve quid when I

582
00:36:15,559 --> 00:36:19,639
bought the fucking thing. But just
mind it me, you'll have it forever.

583
00:36:20,880 --> 00:36:22,360
Look, people will tell you take
off this one, first take off

584
00:36:22,360 --> 00:36:27,079
that one, first take off.
I typically take off the red one.

585
00:36:27,719 --> 00:36:30,239
I don't get fucking technical here,
tom, all right, take off the

586
00:36:30,280 --> 00:36:34,360
black one. Fucking keep them apart, read one, the black one.

587
00:36:34,400 --> 00:36:37,239
Okay, don't bomboot up with science
here, buddy, there'll be all sorts.

588
00:36:39,119 --> 00:36:42,639
Look, just get the owl fucking
yoga out. Fuck it out.

589
00:36:42,960 --> 00:36:45,079
It might be all right. It
might be a case that you left the

590
00:36:45,159 --> 00:36:47,000
light on. Maybe you can get
a trickle charger. Again, I'm not

591
00:36:47,079 --> 00:36:52,239
telling you to go buy a fucking
trickle charger, but sometimes sometimes the reason

592
00:36:52,280 --> 00:36:54,440
why I'm saying got into the car
battery thing here sometimes if you're driving a

593
00:36:54,519 --> 00:36:59,199
relatively a car with a relatively new
battery. I eat inside five years old.

594
00:36:59,360 --> 00:37:01,880
That's a really renew batter. That's
all right, chance, unless you've

595
00:37:01,880 --> 00:37:07,760
done the bollocks on it twenty times
over leaving the fucking inside light on fox

596
00:37:07,880 --> 00:37:09,480
sake, like you know, while
you were searching for the fucking key of

597
00:37:09,519 --> 00:37:13,920
the house. Yeah, okay,
you may have fucked the battery, but

598
00:37:14,079 --> 00:37:16,480
a lot of the time a jumpstart
will do. Now, I'm not gonna

599
00:37:16,480 --> 00:37:19,880
fucking get into that. A battery
is the same as the battery in the

600
00:37:19,880 --> 00:37:22,079
fucking remote. It's gotta go in, gotta go out right. They're a

601
00:37:22,119 --> 00:37:24,719
heavy country yoake in a lot of
ways. Depending on the size of your

602
00:37:24,760 --> 00:37:29,719
car, you might only need one
with from thirty five a I think it's

603
00:37:29,760 --> 00:37:34,039
ah is on a measure up to
ninety, which is going in up to

604
00:37:34,119 --> 00:37:36,880
ninety. Then you're talking to big
engine cars. One hundred and ten is

605
00:37:36,880 --> 00:37:39,639
in the jeep right now, big
old fucking tractor fucking ones. You need

606
00:37:39,760 --> 00:37:43,800
it for bigger crank. You need
that fucking pop for a bigger crank.

607
00:37:44,719 --> 00:37:47,159
Is there again, don't detriment to
putting too big of a car too big

608
00:37:47,199 --> 00:37:51,679
of a there is. There is, there is, there is. Yeah,

609
00:37:51,719 --> 00:37:55,159
you do not need like there is. I haven't I've done it and

610
00:37:55,280 --> 00:37:59,199
not seen it, but I've heard
there is from people who are in the

611
00:37:59,280 --> 00:38:02,280
know, who I believe. So
just don't a lot of time. Your

612
00:38:02,320 --> 00:38:05,920
Cara will only need a relatively small
one, you know what I mean.

613
00:38:06,280 --> 00:38:07,639
Now here's the thing. I'm gonna
jump straight off there because I'm not going

614
00:38:07,719 --> 00:38:12,440
to delay on fucking changing a fucking
battery, red black, fucking pop them

615
00:38:12,480 --> 00:38:15,320
on, Put fucking black on first
when you're going, but then put red

616
00:38:15,360 --> 00:38:17,280
on, Tighten them hard. Don't
be fucking frightening giving him a bit of

617
00:38:17,320 --> 00:38:22,880
a fucking squeeze, because the smoother
of a grip you get around it,

618
00:38:22,039 --> 00:38:24,719
the smoother juice coming back out of
it. Now, I don't want to

619
00:38:24,920 --> 00:38:27,920
I don't want to be this guy
here, but I feel like she could

620
00:38:27,960 --> 00:38:31,199
come in and say, don't touch
the two metal parts. Oh okay,

621
00:38:31,280 --> 00:38:35,840
yeah, yeah, yeah, okay, that's exactly we know not to do

622
00:38:36,000 --> 00:38:38,599
that, right, I mean,
like Tom Jerry, audience, come on

623
00:38:38,800 --> 00:38:44,039
like they know, they know,
But a hell of a lot you'll change

624
00:38:44,159 --> 00:38:46,280
fucking three car batteries in your whole
fucking life. I swear to God you

625
00:38:46,760 --> 00:38:51,639
at most, unless unless you've got
an out rig that you keep for the

626
00:38:51,679 --> 00:38:55,039
winter, you probably will never change
one, because in all fairness, they

627
00:38:55,079 --> 00:38:59,320
do they don't fucking die as easy
as they used to die. And on

628
00:38:59,440 --> 00:39:02,920
top of that, stuff doesn't stay
like the radio doesn't stay on. Yeah,

629
00:39:04,000 --> 00:39:06,280
yeah, I mean once upon a
time a radio didn't stay on.

630
00:39:07,039 --> 00:39:09,840
Lights fucking could stay on if you
didn't. Now there's fucking more sirens to

631
00:39:09,880 --> 00:39:13,360
go off to tell you that ship
is left on or keys are left in

632
00:39:13,400 --> 00:39:15,480
this and nine times out of ten, the fucking thing kind of goes he's

633
00:39:15,519 --> 00:39:20,079
a fucking in and shuts itself down
anyway, So, in all fairness,

634
00:39:20,079 --> 00:39:23,000
the likelihood of actually running a car
battery down is on other than you're letting

635
00:39:23,039 --> 00:39:28,199
it sit for fucking three years because
you're away. Fucking This is around fucking

636
00:39:28,440 --> 00:39:30,679
and this is you know, age
happened when you go to fucking, you

637
00:39:30,760 --> 00:39:34,199
know, to Berlin for the weekend
and you come back to the airport.

638
00:39:34,280 --> 00:39:36,360
I don't think you have to worry
that your car battery is going to be

639
00:39:37,000 --> 00:39:39,440
You should you should be okay.
But on the off chance that you're not,

640
00:39:39,559 --> 00:39:44,079
Tom go on. Please discuss.
But here's the thing. Nine times

641
00:39:44,119 --> 00:39:46,920
out of ten, giving that battery
of fucking spin down the road will do

642
00:39:47,079 --> 00:39:49,880
fine, do you know what I
mean? And if you can do it,

643
00:39:50,480 --> 00:39:53,280
I'm it gets a better charge if
the lights aren't on. So sometimes

644
00:39:53,320 --> 00:39:58,320
you have your light set to auto
come on regardless, turn the lights off,

645
00:39:58,559 --> 00:40:00,920
turn the radio off and the fucking
fan heater, just so the battery

646
00:40:01,000 --> 00:40:04,559
can just go. I'll give you
the fuck no, I'm grand again.

647
00:40:04,639 --> 00:40:07,039
Yeah, five miles down the road, it'll be the finest drive on.

648
00:40:07,360 --> 00:40:09,360
But here's the thing. You do. Come back to the car. Something's

649
00:40:09,400 --> 00:40:13,079
happened in the way. You've left
the fucking light on internally and it has

650
00:40:13,159 --> 00:40:15,000
shipped the bad battery because you have
only a small car and a small battery.

651
00:40:16,159 --> 00:40:20,320
Jump leads. This is a fucking
mystery. Someone the amount of fucking

652
00:40:20,400 --> 00:40:22,480
people now this is probably the number
one one why they agreed. Well,

653
00:40:22,639 --> 00:40:24,679
when you brought me with this,
I went, well, this has to

654
00:40:24,719 --> 00:40:31,320
be in there. Jump leads.
Fuck me, it's fuck me it okay,

655
00:40:31,480 --> 00:40:37,960
it's here's the basics. Decent set
of jump leads twenty quid. Yeah,

656
00:40:37,280 --> 00:40:39,960
keep them in the pack. Mind
again, these are things that you.

657
00:40:40,079 --> 00:40:44,559
I have a set of fucking jump
leads from fucking fortes. We are

658
00:40:44,639 --> 00:40:50,119
running out of boot space here with
all the stuff, with the fucking diagnostic

659
00:40:50,199 --> 00:40:52,880
to get it. But if you
are, if you organize your fucking boot

660
00:40:52,920 --> 00:40:55,159
right window loo, look look I'm
saying, look, if you drive a

661
00:40:55,199 --> 00:40:59,559
fuck it, if you drive a
fucking I don't know what's a tiny car.

662
00:40:59,639 --> 00:41:01,559
Nowadays, there's no tiny cars any
anymore. They've all got good sized

663
00:41:01,599 --> 00:41:07,760
fucking boots. But if you're driving
a die hate to charade, that zero

664
00:41:07,960 --> 00:41:12,760
six diet to charade, then I'm
sorry, but look here the thing.

665
00:41:12,840 --> 00:41:15,159
But say you don't have one,
you pull into a fucking petro station,

666
00:41:15,239 --> 00:41:19,719
they go look at that. There
they are, and now you know how

667
00:41:19,760 --> 00:41:21,840
to This is how you're going to
know how to use them. Okay,

668
00:41:22,440 --> 00:41:23,679
you get a nice old soul who's
going to give you a jump start.

669
00:41:25,119 --> 00:41:29,239
You recognize what side your batteries on, but popping your hood, popping the

670
00:41:29,280 --> 00:41:32,360
bonnet right. Recognize sometimes it's left, sometimes it's right, same with theirs.

671
00:41:32,480 --> 00:41:36,079
Most of the time it's on sitting
in the car sat. It would

672
00:41:36,079 --> 00:41:38,559
be on fucking you know, stage
left. It would be on the passenger

673
00:41:38,639 --> 00:41:43,559
side. Or in the boot in
a certain hype power or in the boot,

674
00:41:43,760 --> 00:41:47,119
or if you're driving a fucking Tiota
Dina, it's under the fucking passenger

675
00:41:47,199 --> 00:41:52,239
seat, which I was never comfortable
with anyway. But that's where rubbish goes.

676
00:41:53,079 --> 00:41:55,599
That's where rubbish exactly. That's what
Luke said. Buttles are supposed to

677
00:41:55,639 --> 00:42:00,639
go on fags and Chris the cans. That will just cause a cause of

678
00:42:00,719 --> 00:42:06,079
short So pull it over. Pull
the running car over with with the full

679
00:42:06,199 --> 00:42:10,039
You know they've got the juicy battery
and you want to go black to black.

680
00:42:10,480 --> 00:42:14,280
So where am I hooking it on
to? Jerry? I'm hooking it

681
00:42:14,360 --> 00:42:17,599
on to the same the little the
little nodes that are gripped. It's okay.

682
00:42:17,639 --> 00:42:20,880
You don't have to take off anything. You may have to pull it

683
00:42:20,880 --> 00:42:22,800
back a little, you know,
the rubber caps or whatever. Grip it

684
00:42:22,840 --> 00:42:27,000
straight on with the with the crocodile
clip that is the at the end.

685
00:42:27,400 --> 00:42:30,519
Either end up the cable, black
cable on. Get it on good in

686
00:42:30,559 --> 00:42:34,320
time. Make sure it's getting as
much surface area coverage as possible. Onto

687
00:42:34,440 --> 00:42:37,840
his onto yours. Some people say
one or the other. Now, when

688
00:42:37,840 --> 00:42:42,000
you're putting the red on, put
on yours onto the dead one. Then

689
00:42:42,679 --> 00:42:45,360
now again, it doesn't make a
matter of massive difference. You're not talking

690
00:42:45,360 --> 00:42:52,320
about running two fucking jumbo jets off
each other onto his onto yours. Now,

691
00:42:52,199 --> 00:42:54,360
do you just jump straight into your
car, Jerry, now that you've

692
00:42:54,360 --> 00:42:59,280
hooked it up and crank it.
Now you fucking don't you give it a

693
00:42:59,360 --> 00:43:01,079
fucking minute, and I mean that, give it a full fucking minute.

694
00:43:02,000 --> 00:43:07,039
If you've met a very nice person, you could ask them if they wouldn't

695
00:43:07,079 --> 00:43:12,079
mind pushing in their accelerator to bring
it up to two thousand revs. That's

696
00:43:12,119 --> 00:43:16,920
where you want it really, to
get full electricity output and firing it in

697
00:43:17,119 --> 00:43:22,280
so you're pouring electricity from their car
into your car. Long before there was

698
00:43:22,320 --> 00:43:29,039
ever a tesla. Give it a
minute, try it. Don't go fucking

699
00:43:29,119 --> 00:43:31,480
cranking this shit out of it.
If you're getting absolutely not knowly clicklick,

700
00:43:31,480 --> 00:43:37,559
click, clicklick. But give it
another little bit, give it another minute,

701
00:43:37,960 --> 00:43:42,800
patience. I swear my fucking life. I had a remember I used

702
00:43:42,800 --> 00:43:47,039
to do the Ferrari job. Yeah
yeah, yeah, yeah, Well to

703
00:43:47,159 --> 00:43:50,960
enlighten people, I used to do
Ferrari experiences with people. And one of

704
00:43:51,000 --> 00:43:52,800
the guys that was doing it.
The lads had hired him to fill in

705
00:43:52,920 --> 00:43:55,440
for me because they've gotten it so
popular. They bought a few of these

706
00:43:55,480 --> 00:43:59,920
cars. They got this guy who's
a driving instructor. I couldn't believe how

707
00:44:00,320 --> 00:44:04,599
fucking little this guy actually knew about
cars. He was worrying how much this

708
00:44:04,679 --> 00:44:07,079
guy knew. How little this guy
knew about cars. The hiredest guy to

709
00:44:07,239 --> 00:44:10,639
trial him. He rings me,
going, this fucking thing won't start.

710
00:44:12,199 --> 00:44:14,719
Of course it wouldn't start. He's
been sitting in the garage all fucking winter.

711
00:44:15,639 --> 00:44:17,360
Nobody put it on a trickle feed. It's okay, relax, it's

712
00:44:17,360 --> 00:44:24,679
all right. He's running his Ford
Fiesta into fucking charge. Yeah yeah,

713
00:44:24,880 --> 00:44:29,599
a Ferrari like with a giant fucking
battery, and he's just putting it straight

714
00:44:29,679 --> 00:44:31,360
to it. He got it right, He got it straight, absolutely right.

715
00:44:31,519 --> 00:44:35,480
Actually, that battery was in the
footwell of the passenger seat. The

716
00:44:35,519 --> 00:44:39,119
passenger said, he hooked up the
battery the jump, let's just find his

717
00:44:39,239 --> 00:44:44,119
own. But like within three seconds
of jumping out of his own one liter

718
00:44:44,239 --> 00:44:47,159
Fiesta into a three point eight later, Ferrari just start cranking it, cranking

719
00:44:47,159 --> 00:44:50,400
a crank and a cranking a crank
and stomping on this rattle and seeking to

720
00:44:50,400 --> 00:44:52,679
get it, and he rings me
in this panic. I'm like, well,

721
00:44:52,719 --> 00:44:54,400
what what are you doing? So
I get over there and he's doing

722
00:44:54,480 --> 00:44:59,519
this again, like did you did
you let it have a second to fucking

723
00:44:59,599 --> 00:45:02,519
wake up? It's been a sleeping
six months. Here's the thing, Tom,

724
00:45:02,679 --> 00:45:07,280
Do you walk into the house,
turn on the immersion strip and get

725
00:45:07,320 --> 00:45:12,199
straight into the shower. Well,
that's that's exactly it. Give it a

726
00:45:12,280 --> 00:45:15,039
second, give it a little while
to fucking warm up, fill up a

727
00:45:15,119 --> 00:45:19,800
little bit, and then it'll get
it first time. I do think people

728
00:45:19,800 --> 00:45:23,719
there with ice cold balls. I
mean the notion of electricity. I suppose

729
00:45:23,880 --> 00:45:28,239
with people in this scenario, maybe
they're still in electric mode where they just

730
00:45:28,280 --> 00:45:32,719
think with flippers. With that.
When it comes to or burning organic matter

731
00:45:32,920 --> 00:45:37,119
i e. Oil, you have
to have an organic attitude that you need

732
00:45:37,239 --> 00:45:42,880
to just sit back and fucking chill
for one second and let the car take

733
00:45:42,920 --> 00:45:45,960
a fucking deep breath. Do you
know what I mean? Just fucking relax

734
00:45:45,079 --> 00:45:49,679
for one fucking second, because everything
needs a second, right, depending on

735
00:45:51,639 --> 00:45:54,360
right. And say that Batman's fiesta
would that Man's fiesta would have charged that

736
00:45:54,920 --> 00:45:59,840
Ferrari. Just given a little bit
time, I now would have taken a

737
00:46:00,119 --> 00:46:02,480
ten minutes because there was a fart
of a car like there was fucking like

738
00:46:02,599 --> 00:46:06,760
but it was a woman, right, it was. It was a thirty

739
00:46:06,880 --> 00:46:12,960
fucking or ah battery in his thirty
or thirty five to a ninety in the

740
00:46:13,039 --> 00:46:15,519
Ferrari. So you know what I
mean, you're you're yeah, you know

741
00:46:15,639 --> 00:46:19,840
you got you got four pounds of
ship and it's a fucking twenty pound bag.

742
00:46:20,360 --> 00:46:23,800
You're gonna have to shad a bit
more, go harder. I fucking

743
00:46:23,840 --> 00:46:27,119
throw a bit more into it,
just enough to crank it. And after

744
00:46:27,199 --> 00:46:30,599
that once she got going, you
know. But which led me to another

745
00:46:30,679 --> 00:46:35,239
one, which actually reminded me of
the same fucking idiot. Because the car's

746
00:46:35,280 --> 00:46:40,320
battery. He drove up the Oh
listen, he may or may not.

747
00:46:40,719 --> 00:46:43,719
Well, I had it, yeah
to let him fucking go. Later on

748
00:46:43,800 --> 00:46:49,159
that evening he was that fucking abysma, but he was. He drove up

749
00:46:49,199 --> 00:46:53,239
the fucking road. He immediately wanted
to throw petrol in. I went,

750
00:46:53,440 --> 00:46:57,400
well, yeah, you probably get
through the fur up to lunchtime without petrol

751
00:46:57,440 --> 00:47:00,800
but filling, but we are I
wouldn't he didn't listen to me, went

752
00:47:00,920 --> 00:47:05,960
up, locked the car, the
key fob. The batteries were gone cold

753
00:47:06,119 --> 00:47:10,280
dead on that too, and he
had a complete nutter fucking meltdown. I

754
00:47:10,360 --> 00:47:14,480
went, okay, bringing me now
again, I went, okay, what's

755
00:47:14,519 --> 00:47:17,360
the fucking car went fucking open now
because the fucking key fob. I went,

756
00:47:17,440 --> 00:47:23,079
okay, Well, let's you know
it's it's it's consistent, and it's

757
00:47:23,199 --> 00:47:29,320
fucking ferrari these relaxed. Here's the
thing. It can happen to fucking anybody,

758
00:47:29,519 --> 00:47:31,599
but it doesn't happen all of a
sudden unless you've left your fucking car

759
00:47:31,679 --> 00:47:37,639
for six months. If you start
to feel the fob going, then around.

760
00:47:37,280 --> 00:47:40,639
But if you do come across this
scenario, here's the thing. And

761
00:47:40,719 --> 00:47:45,679
you're looking at the handles going there
used to be fucking key holes on these

762
00:47:45,719 --> 00:47:47,760
cars back in the fucking mid two
thousands, and they don't have them anymore.

763
00:47:49,440 --> 00:47:52,360
Yes they fucking do, Yes they
do. Jar, I'll let you.

764
00:47:52,760 --> 00:47:57,760
You want to tell me. I
know I have had experienced this before

765
00:47:57,840 --> 00:48:00,320
where I'm at the at the door
handle and there's no way to get into

766
00:48:00,400 --> 00:48:06,079
it, and oh god, isn't
technology a terrible thing? But there's like

767
00:48:06,159 --> 00:48:09,679
a secret keyhole, right, yeah, there is normally on the passenger side,

768
00:48:10,880 --> 00:48:15,159
and and I might still be on
the driver's side, might still be

769
00:48:15,239 --> 00:48:17,519
on the driver's side. The key
itself, like you know the way keys

770
00:48:17,559 --> 00:48:21,719
these days might be just like a
chunk of a thing that doesn't have actually

771
00:48:21,800 --> 00:48:25,960
any key that slides into anything.
It's just like a chunky fob of a

772
00:48:27,039 --> 00:48:30,960
thing that splits and comes apart like
a little transfer. Yeah. Yeah,

773
00:48:31,119 --> 00:48:36,360
and it's a key inside it.
I have I have experiences Rehno, I

774
00:48:36,400 --> 00:48:37,960
think we're one of the Reno or
Sitroum. We're one of the first to

775
00:48:38,039 --> 00:48:43,719
do it for regular cars where it
wasn't actually an ignition, you know,

776
00:48:43,880 --> 00:48:45,679
you turn it with your cranking,
which I still like. I still like

777
00:48:45,760 --> 00:48:50,880
the MYOPA does that. I had
a Volkswagon before, and you put the

778
00:48:51,000 --> 00:48:53,519
key into a little port in the
dashboard and then there was a button to

779
00:48:53,519 --> 00:48:57,159
push. I was like, why
are we doing this now? Anyway,

780
00:48:57,639 --> 00:48:59,920
it's six and one and a half, doesn't the other that thing again,

781
00:49:00,039 --> 00:49:05,320
A little a little stick, a
plastic shaped key popped out of that and

782
00:49:05,400 --> 00:49:07,840
would go into a little the same
handle on the passenger side. If you

783
00:49:07,880 --> 00:49:14,480
do drive a volts Wagon. Feel
underneath it and the the the end of

784
00:49:14,559 --> 00:49:16,880
the handle that is close closer to
the back of the car. If you

785
00:49:16,920 --> 00:49:22,119
get me the last inch of that
will pop up and inside it lo and

786
00:49:22,239 --> 00:49:28,320
behold there's a fucking keyhole and that
little classic hole will go in and release

787
00:49:28,360 --> 00:49:30,880
the car. Now you still have
to start with your own key and everything

788
00:49:30,920 --> 00:49:34,280
when you get into it. But
know that there is a way in.

789
00:49:35,000 --> 00:49:40,400
Know that there is a fucking way
in unless cars are not built for them

790
00:49:40,599 --> 00:49:45,159
to be for for them to be
tricked and locked out. So you're there

791
00:49:45,239 --> 00:49:47,840
with a car and you're locked it
and now you never can get into it

792
00:49:47,960 --> 00:49:53,159
ever again. It's sealed like fucking
toot and cam ands tomb grass will grow

793
00:49:53,280 --> 00:49:58,239
around to walk away. Let the
let the send of the time take it.

794
00:49:58,719 --> 00:50:00,880
Yeah, exactly, You'll never get
into this fucking car again. You'll

795
00:50:00,920 --> 00:50:05,239
get into the car. You will
get into the car. And as Tom

796
00:50:05,320 --> 00:50:10,480
has said throughout this whole series,
why don't you take five minutes right now

797
00:50:12,280 --> 00:50:15,519
and find out the following things so
that when you do fucking lock yourself out

798
00:50:15,519 --> 00:50:19,960
of the car or what have you, that you can get it open or

799
00:50:20,039 --> 00:50:24,320
if you do, uh need to
know where your battery is to get a

800
00:50:24,400 --> 00:50:29,039
jump start. The at least you
know that you're not completely fucking helpless like

801
00:50:29,119 --> 00:50:32,079
a duck on its bod. Here's
the thing, like, right now there'll

802
00:50:32,079 --> 00:50:36,119
be some people scoff and going Ari
for Fox. I don't need to know

803
00:50:36,239 --> 00:50:39,480
that, trust me. The smugness
you will have if you have somebody with

804
00:50:39,639 --> 00:50:44,159
you, if for nothing else.
This is how small minded I can be

805
00:50:44,320 --> 00:50:47,320
sometimes, but I understand people.
The smugness if you have somebody with you

806
00:50:47,639 --> 00:50:52,159
who's also lost in the fog about
how to solve the situation. And the

807
00:50:52,239 --> 00:50:55,079
next thing do you go to the
rolodex in your mind and you remember these

808
00:50:55,119 --> 00:51:00,159
two fucking idiots going what you do
is and you remember it and then you

809
00:51:00,280 --> 00:51:05,599
do it and it works. The
fucking smugness and the level of adultness you

810
00:51:05,679 --> 00:51:09,639
will have over your counterpart, it's
you won't be able to buy that.

811
00:51:09,800 --> 00:51:14,679
You couldn't buy it. The level
of the level of cool dick even a

812
00:51:15,920 --> 00:51:21,920
little bit, a little bit in
the company of people that know nothing is.

813
00:51:22,239 --> 00:51:25,440
And here's the thing. This is
coming from two blokes who kind of

814
00:51:25,559 --> 00:51:29,360
only have know it, and I
sure should only know it because I've been

815
00:51:29,440 --> 00:51:31,719
fucking caught in these situations, so
many fun I'm not looking forward to the

816
00:51:31,760 --> 00:51:36,159
common section of this one time.
I swear to God where I can't wait

817
00:51:36,280 --> 00:51:42,960
for you two Fox know nothing,
absolutely appreciate. There are mechanics listening.

818
00:51:43,480 --> 00:51:46,039
There will be and there is there. They're listeners and they'll go, oh

819
00:51:46,159 --> 00:51:50,679
for fox sake, because we've got
We've been pulled up by scientists and stuff

820
00:51:50,719 --> 00:51:52,679
in the past. I've gotten messages
gonna God bless you. At least you're

821
00:51:52,719 --> 00:52:00,400
funny. We're just we're speaking from
late point of views. And the only

822
00:52:00,599 --> 00:52:06,639
learnings that I've that I can give
you are not something I learned because some

823
00:52:06,840 --> 00:52:10,119
master craftsman but Canny taught me.
It's because of the fuck ups and the

824
00:52:10,239 --> 00:52:15,719
fucking odd situations I found myself in
some backwoods are fucking loud, trying to

825
00:52:16,039 --> 00:52:21,920
come out of a fucking a gig
to fucking four people and hay barn and

826
00:52:22,119 --> 00:52:24,400
for some reason doesn't want to go
home. You know what I mean?

827
00:52:24,440 --> 00:52:27,519
All right to have what what else
have you got? Frost there? But

828
00:52:27,679 --> 00:52:30,039
what other nuggets you got there?
Just look, there's a handful of things.

829
00:52:30,320 --> 00:52:34,239
Those are kind of the big things. I don't want to fucking people's

830
00:52:34,239 --> 00:52:37,119
boots filling up. These are just
the kind of things that would just they

831
00:52:37,360 --> 00:52:39,599
give you a bit of focus and
a small bit of fucking, a small

832
00:52:39,639 --> 00:52:44,159
bit of nouse, as they say, going down the fucking road. I'm

833
00:52:44,239 --> 00:52:46,480
just gonna pop through a few here
now. Yeah, I've got a couple

834
00:52:46,519 --> 00:52:50,320
of quick fire questions for you that
maybe you can answer, maybe you can't

835
00:52:51,239 --> 00:52:53,840
perfect, so I'm not I'm not
gonna bang on about these ones. Just

836
00:52:54,000 --> 00:52:58,840
keep an eye out for you feel
a lightness coming in your clutch because you're

837
00:52:58,840 --> 00:53:01,639
a city driver. I'm gonna tell
you it's a thousand years coming down the

838
00:53:01,679 --> 00:53:06,880
line. Yes, yeah, it's. There are certain things. Now you

839
00:53:07,000 --> 00:53:10,519
may get a very sound mechanic who
feels they won't have to replace the whole

840
00:53:10,559 --> 00:53:15,400
clutch. It's because of the overuse
of clutches in cities, or the overuse

841
00:53:15,400 --> 00:53:17,519
of a clutch when pulling heavy weights, because you've got to take off the

842
00:53:17,639 --> 00:53:23,320
accelerator really easy sometimes when you're pulling
a real heavyweight. I probably don't need

843
00:53:23,360 --> 00:53:28,159
to tell the people that pull heavyweights
that they know they're fucking more into it

844
00:53:28,199 --> 00:53:30,480
than I know. Nobody listening to
this is going to accidentally be pulling a

845
00:53:30,519 --> 00:53:35,559
trailer someday. No, And that's
why I didn't get into trailers or anything

846
00:53:35,599 --> 00:53:37,519
like that, because the kind of
people that drive them back up fucking triple

847
00:53:37,559 --> 00:53:43,079
AXL FU trailers and quadruple AXL trailers
enjoy. They probably skipped through this,

848
00:53:43,320 --> 00:53:47,599
or maybe they're just listening for fucking
critique. But I've blown a couple of

849
00:53:47,639 --> 00:53:52,320
clutches in my time, most one
no two for definite from pulling heavy loads.

850
00:53:52,400 --> 00:53:58,159
One from purely city driving. And
he was actually able to replace the

851
00:53:58,280 --> 00:54:00,480
plate on it, like one of
the pressure plays the pressure plate rather than

852
00:54:00,519 --> 00:54:04,840
the full how the whole thing,
So it became a six hundred your job

853
00:54:04,880 --> 00:54:08,639
instead of a thousand euro job.
Look four hundred quid, Oh yeah,

854
00:54:09,960 --> 00:54:15,920
four hundred quid worth a ham on
one plate exactly. Things like keeping an

855
00:54:15,960 --> 00:54:19,559
eye out on fucking turbos going,
fucking e GR valves going again, the

856
00:54:19,639 --> 00:54:23,039
little diagnostic machine for maintenance once a
year. If you want, you get

857
00:54:23,079 --> 00:54:28,400
yourself an EGR valve cleaner. It
cleans off a lot of the ship because

858
00:54:28,400 --> 00:54:30,920
if you're driving fuel, know that
they're smoky ship, especially a diesel.

859
00:54:31,639 --> 00:54:36,320
It's quite simplistic to use Google it, you squirt it into the air,

860
00:54:36,960 --> 00:54:39,400
the air intake, and that sucks
it all the way through and it blows

861
00:54:39,440 --> 00:54:43,440
out a lot of the black ship
out the back. That will probably slow

862
00:54:43,480 --> 00:54:46,639
down your car and make it less
efficient. Just keep it an EGR valve

863
00:54:46,679 --> 00:54:51,599
cleaner. It's a spring can get
us into the realm to realms. Tom

864
00:54:51,639 --> 00:54:53,320
And I'm sorry to pausey here,
but anytime I go in to get you

865
00:54:53,400 --> 00:55:00,440
know, wiper blades or fucking yeah, yes, ah, into into the

866
00:55:00,519 --> 00:55:10,039
car parts place, ricktion, I
love it. Why do I imagine going

867
00:55:10,079 --> 00:55:16,239
in wearing lazy gloves in your hand
bag? Hand up? Excuse? Could

868
00:55:16,320 --> 00:55:22,039
you find gentleman's tell a Southern bill
where she might get into the local cotton?

869
00:55:23,599 --> 00:55:29,320
My cousin has expected me. My
automobile just won't go. Ah.

870
00:55:30,119 --> 00:55:36,599
But there's always these racks of like, like I guess additives is be what

871
00:55:37,079 --> 00:55:38,480
you know that you put into the
patrol, and it's like put this into

872
00:55:38,519 --> 00:55:43,519
your patrol for more power, and
put this into your patrol to clean your

873
00:55:43,559 --> 00:55:45,840
engine, and put this into your
patrol to remove carbon scoring and all that.

874
00:55:46,119 --> 00:55:50,960
Do you need them fucking work?
There's a there's a Wicklow crowd who

875
00:55:51,000 --> 00:55:52,920
have won several awards, and they
stand and I mean a lot of a

876
00:55:52,920 --> 00:55:55,599
couple of mechanics do stand over and
I've noticed it in the long run.

877
00:55:55,639 --> 00:55:59,360
I don't know about cleaning engine and
stuff like that. I can't fucking see

878
00:55:59,400 --> 00:56:02,320
in there. But there's a crowd
called Diptane. You'll see the long kind

879
00:56:02,320 --> 00:56:07,000
of white battle of its green.
It's got a graduated symbols on the side

880
00:56:07,000 --> 00:56:09,039
of Jesus Man. We're selling some
stuff on this podcast. But I've noticed.

881
00:56:10,239 --> 00:56:14,920
I've noticed because I buy all my
diesel from the one petro station,

882
00:56:15,039 --> 00:56:17,440
which is a shout out to the
petrol station and bench a really good diesel.

883
00:56:19,000 --> 00:56:23,559
But I've noticed on long I do
very similar style driving. I don't

884
00:56:23,599 --> 00:56:29,400
do much city driving anymore. I
do long motorway driving. And I've noticed

885
00:56:29,840 --> 00:56:32,400
using the using the bottle of Diptain, I probably get an extra hundred in

886
00:56:32,440 --> 00:56:37,639
the tank. I swear to God, Yeah, yeah, I don't know

887
00:56:37,800 --> 00:56:39,639
if it's good, better and different
for the engine, but I know I'm

888
00:56:39,679 --> 00:56:44,480
getting longer. And she runs like
you know, I always just thought that

889
00:56:44,559 --> 00:56:47,000
some of these, like these engine
treatments and cleaners and all this kind of

890
00:56:47,079 --> 00:56:51,119
horseshit, like you know, is
it just like, is it like I'm

891
00:56:51,280 --> 00:56:54,599
just actimel for your engine that maybe, Yeah, I wonder if some of

892
00:56:54,679 --> 00:56:58,679
it a bit fucking are people not
getting you probably have to do what I'm

893
00:56:58,760 --> 00:57:01,199
doing to get the fuck. Other
than that, it's probably a bit snake

894
00:57:01,239 --> 00:57:05,920
eily. Now it's saying that my
fucking yok isn't going to build up much

895
00:57:05,920 --> 00:57:08,119
fucking carbon. Gone up the motorway
at one hundred fucking odd and a two

896
00:57:08,239 --> 00:57:12,239
hundred fucking k journey, three hundred
four hundred k journey, it's getting a

897
00:57:12,280 --> 00:57:16,039
good fucking blowout. But if you
have I guess if you're again, you're

898
00:57:16,079 --> 00:57:22,039
doing a four second third, fucking
third second third, second third forest stop.

899
00:57:22,559 --> 00:57:24,639
A lot of that driving in the
city. Yeah, A lot of

900
00:57:24,679 --> 00:57:29,000
the fucking heavy particles won't get blown
out of your engine like they do out

901
00:57:29,000 --> 00:57:34,000
of mind, So maybe maybe you'd
probably need to use this shit more.

902
00:57:34,400 --> 00:57:40,199
But the e GR valve cleaner I
found it actually made it made my throttle

903
00:57:40,239 --> 00:57:46,559
the accelerator a lot more responsive.
I didn't do. You know, like

904
00:57:46,639 --> 00:57:50,199
when you when you get your teeth
cleaned and you go fuck me of all

905
00:57:50,280 --> 00:57:52,679
them fucking lovely gaps all over the
back of your teeth. You're going,

906
00:57:52,800 --> 00:57:55,719
oh, I feel gross because I
had plaque in there. Yeah yeah,

907
00:57:55,760 --> 00:57:59,800
yeah, yeah, yea, yeah
yeah yeah. Well it's the same thing

908
00:58:00,199 --> 00:58:01,639
I noticed. I was like,
oh, I have way more control over

909
00:58:01,679 --> 00:58:04,679
the speed here, now do you
know what I mean? But then for

910
00:58:04,800 --> 00:58:07,159
a lot of people that doesn't matter. How fuck just saying if you will

911
00:58:07,159 --> 00:58:08,800
have a bit of pride in your
car, you want to clean the fucking

912
00:58:08,800 --> 00:58:12,039
guts of it out every so often. This is like a fucking I get

913
00:58:12,159 --> 00:58:15,880
us. I guess it's like get
you know, colon clean. Just fucking

914
00:58:15,119 --> 00:58:20,000
if you want to go back and
listen to Jerry's fucking tourbo ax fucking episode

915
00:58:20,039 --> 00:58:22,559
where he you know, he blew
his back door out, you know,

916
00:58:22,239 --> 00:58:27,360
ah, well, I don't care
for how you describe it, sir.

917
00:58:28,320 --> 00:58:30,599
I apologize, but I've told a
story a bunch of times, and I've

918
00:58:30,599 --> 00:58:35,599
directed people to that episode when they're
going when he used it and I'll just

919
00:58:35,639 --> 00:58:37,679
head to work, I'm like,
no, you're not. Go listen to

920
00:58:37,800 --> 00:58:38,840
Jerry Bright. He thought he was
going. He thought he was going to

921
00:58:38,880 --> 00:58:42,760
work as well that day. Turns
out he cried himself to sleep on the

922
00:58:42,800 --> 00:58:50,119
fucking toilet. Is it. Yeah, all the things other things to come

923
00:58:50,159 --> 00:58:53,920
out with, like the lightnse,
Look, there's the I just want people

924
00:58:54,480 --> 00:58:58,639
to be aware of the different lights
they have in their car. Right,

925
00:58:58,679 --> 00:59:00,519
So you have your headlights, of
course, you have your dips. Yes,

926
00:59:00,960 --> 00:59:08,159
you have parking lights. Fucking hell
Jesus Christ, people, it's standardized.

927
00:59:08,239 --> 00:59:13,440
It must be orange. There's an
orange green for fucking heads, blue

928
00:59:13,480 --> 00:59:17,639
for dips or sorry, beg your
pardon the other way around, but orange

929
00:59:19,400 --> 00:59:25,119
fucking orange for your big fucking fog
light at the back and forward specifically make

930
00:59:25,639 --> 00:59:30,039
a fucking cunt. And I say
this because I have last years of my

931
00:59:30,079 --> 00:59:36,039
life and temper being caught behind fuckers
on the clearest night of the fucking of

932
00:59:36,159 --> 00:59:38,800
the year with a big, dirty
well. I can't look directly at the

933
00:59:38,840 --> 00:59:43,960
back end of the car. It's
it's like looking into fucking sourn's fucking anus.

934
00:59:44,239 --> 00:59:47,639
Yeah, this fucking thing just and
you're like, how the fuck do

935
00:59:47,719 --> 00:59:51,559
you not know that that thing is
on? Or do you just go I'll

936
00:59:51,599 --> 00:59:55,480
leave it, and because it just
keeps it safe. No, oh,

937
00:59:55,719 --> 00:59:59,679
you have bunch. You have a
bunch of lights back there, your motherfucker.

938
01:00:00,039 --> 01:00:05,360
It's just it's like driving with your
full headlights on just out the back

939
01:00:05,440 --> 01:00:07,440
of the car. Do you know
what you're doing? Do you know what

940
01:00:07,519 --> 01:00:10,039
you're doing? Your fucking crop dusting
people with your farts inside the fucking sub

941
01:00:10,079 --> 01:00:15,599
boy or inside the fucking a fucking
lift. You're like Era fuck y,

942
01:00:17,159 --> 01:00:22,039
you don't even know you're doing it. Yeah, look, just be aware

943
01:00:22,039 --> 01:00:24,639
of it. Turn the fucking thing
off when the fucking fog isn't there.

944
01:00:25,039 --> 01:00:30,599
Come on people, it's for some
people. It's just one of those bug

945
01:00:30,639 --> 01:00:32,320
bears that I have. I'm asking
from a person point of view, right,

946
01:00:32,360 --> 01:00:36,199
I'm gonna if people have asked me
before, should they put a tow

947
01:00:36,239 --> 01:00:37,880
bar in the car and learn how. I'm always a firm believer in the

948
01:00:37,960 --> 01:00:39,960
toe bar. Put it on,
don't put it on. It does protect

949
01:00:39,960 --> 01:00:43,440
your fucking rear bumper. But I
haven't been rear endered a long time so

950
01:00:43,679 --> 01:00:45,280
and I'm not in those environments when
it happens. So it's up to fucking

951
01:00:45,320 --> 01:00:47,960
you. Power steering fluid people,
remember I have asked me about that.

952
01:00:49,559 --> 01:00:52,840
If you're losing power steer flute,
you've got a big problem. Also cooland

953
01:00:52,119 --> 01:00:54,639
people go, oh, keep an
eye on your coolant, Yes, keep

954
01:00:54,639 --> 01:01:00,239
an eye on it. But by
fuck, if you are losing cooland then

955
01:01:00,440 --> 01:01:02,679
it ain't as simple as a fucking
poor top that back. You shouldn't lose

956
01:01:02,719 --> 01:01:07,480
one fucking milli liter off fucking of
coolant, you sure sh should. That's

957
01:01:07,480 --> 01:01:12,480
a that's a closed loop. That's
a closed circuit. You should not be

958
01:01:12,599 --> 01:01:15,400
losing that ship. It's like your
rad's in your fucking house. You should

959
01:01:15,440 --> 01:01:21,480
not be losing pressure in your add
something. And if it's gone fucking somewhere,

960
01:01:22,280 --> 01:01:25,599
chances are it's going into There's a
terminology that you'll hear, a blown

961
01:01:25,639 --> 01:01:30,719
head gasket. A gasket is the
rubber a rubber seal that goes between the

962
01:01:30,800 --> 01:01:32,679
top of your engine like a sound, like the top of a fucking lunch

963
01:01:32,719 --> 01:01:37,000
box, and the main body or
the engine, and there's a fucking rubbery

964
01:01:37,039 --> 01:01:39,480
seal that's the exact same shape as
that in between the two. When that

965
01:01:39,599 --> 01:01:45,679
wears out, sometimes that coolant can
then get in around that. Now it's

966
01:01:45,760 --> 01:01:47,679
up to you how you go about
it. I'm not telling you to go

967
01:01:47,719 --> 01:01:52,840
out and get fucking steel seal,
which is an additive that you can stick

968
01:01:52,880 --> 01:01:57,719
in there. That fucking expands like
fucking iron. It turns liquid to fucking

969
01:01:58,000 --> 01:02:00,119
steel and fills holes and stuff like
that. Look, I would take that

970
01:02:00,159 --> 01:02:04,280
to the mechanic and ask his opinion
whether he thinks your car is worked it

971
01:02:04,400 --> 01:02:06,639
or not. Yea, I know, yeah, We're not gonna fucking skim

972
01:02:06,679 --> 01:02:09,320
ahead gasket here on this podcast.
Here's the thing. If if you're losing,

973
01:02:09,679 --> 01:02:14,320
if you're losing that, if you're
losing coolant, that's dry to the

974
01:02:14,360 --> 01:02:17,000
fucking mechanic. I said, I'm
losing coolant at least, and I don't

975
01:02:17,000 --> 01:02:22,000
worry about his fucking don't worry about
his fucking ego. I'm losing coolant.

976
01:02:22,159 --> 01:02:25,000
If I if I remember correctly,
Tom, because I believe this befell me

977
01:02:25,119 --> 01:02:29,960
with the fourth car that I ever
had, that I was losing coolant into

978
01:02:30,039 --> 01:02:35,440
the engine. Hm. If I
remember correctly, If I checked the oil

979
01:02:36,480 --> 01:02:39,800
of the car, it was gray. It was like orange kind of Yeah,

980
01:02:40,320 --> 01:02:44,840
that's you're in trouble. There's something. Your oil wasn't black as oil

981
01:02:44,920 --> 01:02:47,199
would be. We all know what
oil is, guys. If that oil

982
01:02:47,320 --> 01:02:52,000
has like a like a like a
like an orange film, or as Thom

983
01:02:52,079 --> 01:02:54,320
says, a great kind of sludge
to it, something's getting into that and

984
01:02:54,400 --> 01:03:00,199
it's getting in through the hole in
your head gasket. And that is going

985
01:03:00,239 --> 01:03:04,159
to leave you on the side of
the fucking road from when you least.

986
01:03:04,440 --> 01:03:07,840
Because you know what I did when
I found my orange sludge in the oil

987
01:03:07,960 --> 01:03:13,840
tom to move on. Yeah,
you know what happened, seize the engine.

988
01:03:15,039 --> 01:03:20,280
Yeah that was that. Well,
look at it's it's a it's something

989
01:03:20,280 --> 01:03:22,199
to keep an eye on. But
I would again, I wouldn't be looking

990
01:03:22,199 --> 01:03:28,440
every Monday, but you'll find signs
are to just start losing power and stuff

991
01:03:28,480 --> 01:03:30,519
like that. But look, if
you want to keep an eye on it,

992
01:03:30,559 --> 01:03:31,440
to keep an eye on it.
But if you start fucking losing that

993
01:03:31,519 --> 01:03:36,199
ship, isn't just a little hole
in the bottom of the bottle. It's

994
01:03:36,239 --> 01:03:42,199
another it's another little hopper, little
bottle in the engine. The other one

995
01:03:42,519 --> 01:03:46,239
power steering fluid Again, it's it's
you don't want to be losing it,

996
01:03:46,320 --> 01:03:50,079
but it's it's it ain't going anywhere, but they're leaking the pipe somewhere.

997
01:03:50,239 --> 01:03:52,800
It's supposed to make the steering cut
if you go. I remember I bought

998
01:03:52,840 --> 01:03:55,039
a car years ago and it was
steering, was really heavy in it.

999
01:03:55,840 --> 01:04:00,880
I bought it for half fucking not
on that basis. Found there was a

1000
01:04:00,920 --> 01:04:02,440
giant fucking crack in the very end
of the pipe where I was meeting the

1001
01:04:02,760 --> 01:04:08,159
watch McCullough. I put a Dubilee
clip on it top the back up steering.

1002
01:04:08,880 --> 01:04:12,360
That was that stroke A fucking look
anyway, just fucking telling you that

1003
01:04:12,519 --> 01:04:15,159
to keep an eye on it and
everything else. I had one more thing

1004
01:04:15,239 --> 01:04:17,360
and I can't. Oh yeah,
here's the fucking thing. You'll enjoy this

1005
01:04:17,400 --> 01:04:23,920
because you love a good fucking service
of a scenario in the spring or just

1006
01:04:23,960 --> 01:04:26,639
before the winter, or during the
winter, whenever you fucking want. At

1007
01:04:26,639 --> 01:04:30,880
the bottom of all doors, car
doors are two quite often too, because

1008
01:04:31,039 --> 01:04:33,639
most doors are at a bit of
a slant, and they're in two compartments.

1009
01:04:34,000 --> 01:04:36,320
You'll find if you reach underneath the
door, the flat bit of the

1010
01:04:36,400 --> 01:04:42,159
door, a bit of the car
that you would never ever ever consider touching.

1011
01:04:42,800 --> 01:04:45,159
Have a look under there. Now, bring a rag because it's gonna

1012
01:04:45,159 --> 01:04:47,159
be a bit dirty. Give it
a clean and tell me what you find.

1013
01:04:47,599 --> 01:04:53,360
Okay, I'll tell you what You'll
find. Two rubber little bunks.

1014
01:04:54,519 --> 01:04:57,039
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yes, yes, pull them off.

1015
01:04:57,440 --> 01:05:00,199
Just pull them off a couple of
times a year, and guess we'll

1016
01:05:00,280 --> 01:05:04,880
come flying out. What what gick? Yeah? What just water? Because

1017
01:05:04,920 --> 01:05:09,400
here's the thing. It doesn't just
magically hit your windows and go flying away

1018
01:05:09,400 --> 01:05:14,000
again. Sometimes it runs down and
moisture will get inside the little rubbery strip

1019
01:05:15,000 --> 01:05:19,159
and it has to go somewhere down. This is the thing people like,

1020
01:05:19,760 --> 01:05:23,280
I'm bad cars and the next thing
you see rust at the bottom of God

1021
01:05:23,360 --> 01:05:26,760
the whole chance he must be gone. Chances are fucking doors full of water.

1022
01:05:28,079 --> 01:05:29,960
Or if a car has been sitting
up for a while, mask can

1023
01:05:30,039 --> 01:05:34,079
fucking get inside. It loves getting
inside that little strip and massacoorse will push

1024
01:05:34,119 --> 01:05:38,400
that little strip out. The fucking
bastard. Water will just fly down the

1025
01:05:38,440 --> 01:05:42,000
inside, fill up the door.
You pull that bung off, you might

1026
01:05:42,079 --> 01:05:44,639
only get a little bit out,
but you're as well to pop it off.

1027
01:05:44,679 --> 01:05:46,760
That's the purpose of those bunks.
That's the purpose of those bunks.

1028
01:05:47,280 --> 01:05:49,360
Yeah. It's like a little Yeah, it's like a it's like a bath

1029
01:05:50,079 --> 01:05:55,239
plug. Yeah, and then pop
it back in bath plugging. Okay,

1030
01:05:55,280 --> 01:05:57,559
I'll tell you a better again,
Tom, pull it out and fucking leave

1031
01:05:57,599 --> 01:06:01,280
it out. I've done that when
when fuck it? Because I had I've

1032
01:06:01,320 --> 01:06:05,679
had several carriacter you can imagine.
But this was an incessant problem, right

1033
01:06:05,800 --> 01:06:09,000
like the door was filling up.
I was living in Cavern at the time,

1034
01:06:09,039 --> 01:06:14,119
and a lot of rain happens in
Cavan, much like the rain in

1035
01:06:14,199 --> 01:06:18,000
Spain falls mainly fucking everywhere in Cavin. Yes, it was filling up on

1036
01:06:18,000 --> 01:06:21,519
a weekly basis, and well fuck
that I was. I didn't know about

1037
01:06:21,559 --> 01:06:24,360
these bums at the time. And
again this is how it happened. It

1038
01:06:24,400 --> 01:06:28,079
was splashing back and forth. I
popped it out. I found this fucking

1039
01:06:28,119 --> 01:06:30,960
bomb, and when I felt that
the greatest genius ever, it unloaded.

1040
01:06:30,719 --> 01:06:33,320
By the following Friday, the door
was splashing again. It went well,

1041
01:06:33,639 --> 01:06:36,920
and I couldn't get the fucking off. For love, the money got underneath

1042
01:06:36,960 --> 01:06:44,920
it. Eight mildrill bit up through
the fucking door, wouldn't it was going

1043
01:06:45,000 --> 01:06:46,360
Maybe that is fantastic time. No, I gonna hit you with a couple

1044
01:06:46,400 --> 01:06:49,679
of couple of questions, and these
are very pleased. These are questions that

1045
01:06:49,760 --> 01:06:56,400
were sent in by the co host
of the podcast me oh lovely because these

1046
01:06:56,440 --> 01:07:00,639
are these are These are a couple
of things and no more a perfectly acceptable

1047
01:07:00,679 --> 01:07:04,400
answer for this time. By the
way, if any of the other listeners

1048
01:07:04,440 --> 01:07:08,039
have any other questions about the car. Stick them in the comments and we

1049
01:07:08,159 --> 01:07:12,119
might get round to them, yeah, or refer them to an actual professional

1050
01:07:12,400 --> 01:07:15,119
exactly. And Tom, I know
we talked about, like you know,

1051
01:07:15,280 --> 01:07:18,599
there are magic keys and magic key
holes and little fucking do hickeys and all

1052
01:07:18,639 --> 01:07:24,320
this kind of thing. But if
you lock your keys into the car,

1053
01:07:25,800 --> 01:07:29,280
is there an easy way to open
that door and get them out? I'm

1054
01:07:29,320 --> 01:07:30,719
talking about, like you know,
and many is the time I've been there

1055
01:07:30,800 --> 01:07:33,119
with the keys locked in the car
and they're doing your best to see what

1056
01:07:33,239 --> 01:07:35,880
you can do, and some fucking
gobshit will come along They're like, oh,

1057
01:07:36,320 --> 01:07:40,039
thush, why's around here? Go
get into that car? Fairly handy,

1058
01:07:40,599 --> 01:07:42,960
all right, pal? Do you
fucking know any of them? Can't

1059
01:07:43,000 --> 01:07:45,440
you give one of them a shout? Because I could do with getting into

1060
01:07:45,480 --> 01:07:48,000
this car? Is there like a
I don't want to be the guy that's

1061
01:07:48,000 --> 01:07:51,039
on the side of the road asking
anybody to have a coat hang around them,

1062
01:07:51,079 --> 01:07:55,400
because I've seen this done on TV
before. Is there a way that

1063
01:07:55,519 --> 01:08:02,880
you can physically get into a car
these days? Not that I'm not really

1064
01:08:03,039 --> 01:08:06,920
like it these days, Fuck no, I mean I've seen guys cut a

1065
01:08:06,960 --> 01:08:12,360
tennis ball in half. Yeah,
he used to. It worked on bm

1066
01:08:12,599 --> 01:08:15,199
It used to worked up on BMW's
up to two thousand and six. Anyway,

1067
01:08:15,239 --> 01:08:18,239
I know that because we did it. We did it the next three

1068
01:08:18,399 --> 01:08:21,520
or next five, I think.
For those those that aren't familiar with the

1069
01:08:21,840 --> 01:08:26,159
I always thought it was a myth
that, but apparently not, because Tom

1070
01:08:26,239 --> 01:08:29,800
physically did it. That if you
cut a tennis ball in half and put

1071
01:08:29,840 --> 01:08:33,199
it over the keyhole of a of
a on a corridor and like press the

1072
01:08:33,319 --> 01:08:35,880
half of the tennis ball, it
would create it. Oh not pressed.

1073
01:08:35,920 --> 01:08:39,119
You got to fucking hit that thing, all right, So you got to

1074
01:08:39,159 --> 01:08:42,720
hit it like you're going for a
prize at the fair, and it would

1075
01:08:42,760 --> 01:08:45,920
create pressure that went into the keys
and like pop the lock. I guess,

1076
01:08:45,680 --> 01:08:48,680
yeah, yeah, just just enough, just enough to confuse it.

1077
01:08:49,920 --> 01:08:54,359
Whatever slight movement it was, it
was almost like it was receiving the key.

1078
01:08:54,520 --> 01:08:58,479
It was happy enough to open up
for you, bing bingo. And

1079
01:08:58,680 --> 01:09:00,920
what is that? You know?
You know, you see you see guys

1080
01:09:00,000 --> 01:09:05,560
in movies like Robin Carras and they've
got like a long thin thing Jimmy mm

1081
01:09:05,600 --> 01:09:12,640
hmm. Did Jimmy a yoke?
Like I don't know it's it's it's got

1082
01:09:12,680 --> 01:09:15,119
all of That's what it is.
A flat like a big flat ruler with

1083
01:09:15,159 --> 01:09:16,760
a little hook on the end of
that little hook bes into like a bite

1084
01:09:16,800 --> 01:09:21,880
into it, and you fed it
down like the gap between the seal of

1085
01:09:23,000 --> 01:09:27,640
the winds of the window in the
driver's side, and you you just kind

1086
01:09:27,680 --> 01:09:30,000
of fucked around for a little bit
on the next thing to But I guess

1087
01:09:30,039 --> 01:09:32,520
what I'm asking you, Tomas,
how to pick locks. Some people just

1088
01:09:32,600 --> 01:09:35,399
know how to pick locks. But
if you look your the car, then

1089
01:09:35,560 --> 01:09:41,119
just break the smallest available window on
that character. That's that's and that's what's

1090
01:09:41,119 --> 01:09:43,479
happened to me in the past.
I just go to the normal the little

1091
01:09:43,960 --> 01:09:46,880
fly window fan window at the back
to bust and fucking get it in and

1092
01:09:47,000 --> 01:09:49,600
get in. Yeah yeah, like
that's it. Find as fall the smallest

1093
01:09:49,640 --> 01:09:54,079
window is also probably going to be
the cheapest to replace. So just here's

1094
01:09:54,359 --> 01:09:57,600
here's the fucking thing. It was. It was a thing that happened when

1095
01:09:57,600 --> 01:10:00,359
the key fob was separate to the
key. Yeah, but you want to

1096
01:10:00,399 --> 01:10:06,000
pull off some fucking move these days, you know what I mean? Like

1097
01:10:06,359 --> 01:10:10,720
if if your car still has buttons, which a lot of cars don't anymore,

1098
01:10:11,079 --> 01:10:14,199
you can. I'd have it on
that because I had to do it.

1099
01:10:14,319 --> 01:10:16,640
Was the only way to lock on
an old jeep ahead was you had

1100
01:10:16,720 --> 01:10:20,439
to actually push down the button and
hold the handle out and then close it

1101
01:10:20,560 --> 01:10:24,439
and it would stay that like.
It was the only fucking way to lock

1102
01:10:24,479 --> 01:10:26,600
this bucket of ship. I know, I shouldn't sl like it off.

1103
01:10:26,640 --> 01:10:30,520
It was a Toyota high looks.
I fucking love that jeep, but she

1104
01:10:30,840 --> 01:10:31,960
it was the only way to lock
it. And it did happen once or

1105
01:10:32,000 --> 01:10:34,520
twice. And the only thing with
that was I found that the windows were

1106
01:10:34,600 --> 01:10:41,319
quite flimsy. And if you'd strong
strong three m like duct taper grilla tape,

1107
01:10:41,680 --> 01:10:45,600
maybe four or five strips of it
taped halfway down the window, and

1108
01:10:45,720 --> 01:10:48,800
then twist the bottom half the bottom, all four of them together at the

1109
01:10:48,800 --> 01:10:53,399
bottom to make a fucking kind of
a rope braid, you could yank it

1110
01:10:53,479 --> 01:10:56,800
down just enough. Maybe you get
an inch or two down a coat anger

1111
01:10:56,880 --> 01:11:02,680
in and the buttons were quite ready
to receive a fucking yeah. Okay,

1112
01:11:02,680 --> 01:11:05,640
well that's that's that's interesting. Yeah
I can, I can, I can.

1113
01:11:05,760 --> 01:11:10,119
I can feel the motion of that
that it would pull the one can

1114
01:11:10,199 --> 01:11:14,800
only assume you're going to damage something
while they're doing this, but it's going

1115
01:11:14,840 --> 01:11:15,720
to get you off the side of
the road. And that's what we're all

1116
01:11:15,760 --> 01:11:18,119
about here on the tommentary. Yeah, yeah, yeah, exactly. And

1117
01:11:18,159 --> 01:11:20,920
I guess my other questions some are
are like, you know, kind of

1118
01:11:21,279 --> 01:11:27,800
car terminology that I don't understand despite
Okay, okay, the big one is

1119
01:11:28,359 --> 01:11:31,039
the big one? Is this Tom
and it's the big one. It's the

1120
01:11:31,239 --> 01:11:35,600
big one, the big end.
What the fuck is that? What is

1121
01:11:35,640 --> 01:11:39,199
the big end? Oh, the
big End's gone? What is that?

1122
01:11:39,720 --> 01:11:44,079
What are you talking about? It's
it sounds serious. Yeah, well,

1123
01:11:44,119 --> 01:11:48,439
it's the subframe underneath the engine.
So it's it's basically the the the rafters

1124
01:11:48,640 --> 01:11:53,840
that are holding up the fucking engine
and that can rot on certain brands of

1125
01:11:53,920 --> 01:11:57,279
cars like Minis were terrible. Four
years ago. We replaced the big end

1126
01:11:57,359 --> 01:12:00,880
on a on a Mini that we
were doing up to make it look race

1127
01:12:00,920 --> 01:12:03,960
and style. That's we don't call
them big ends here as Americans would call

1128
01:12:04,000 --> 01:12:08,600
them begins, but we call them
what did I just say, my brain

1129
01:12:09,039 --> 01:12:11,520
run them up? The subframe?
Yeah, so it would be part of

1130
01:12:11,560 --> 01:12:14,680
the chassis of the car, be
part of the car skeleton. But they

1131
01:12:14,720 --> 01:12:18,039
are prone to rust, and in
a lot of cases you can with props,

1132
01:12:18,199 --> 01:12:23,039
you can take it out and buy
it, and you unlike a lot

1133
01:12:23,039 --> 01:12:26,600
of fucking things, you've got to
buy the whole thing, like the hold

1134
01:12:26,640 --> 01:12:28,920
the engine in place. Okay,
well that makes sense, that's what That's

1135
01:12:28,920 --> 01:12:30,960
what I told was it was I
had a car that was rattling like fucking

1136
01:12:31,039 --> 01:12:34,640
Someone told me like, well,
your engine's good, but like the big

1137
01:12:34,840 --> 01:12:36,399
end is gone. I was like, all right, okay, I'll take

1138
01:12:36,439 --> 01:12:42,239
that. What you're talking about.
Yeah, I mean sometimes the mountains that

1139
01:12:42,399 --> 01:12:46,760
the engine is is sitting on,
they have rubber bushings they're called so they're

1140
01:12:46,800 --> 01:12:51,439
little, they're their own little suspenders
suspension your washing machine to stop it from

1141
01:12:51,640 --> 01:12:56,840
exactly so much like your washing machine. If your ma washing machine was just

1142
01:12:56,880 --> 01:12:59,119
sitting flat on the floor, the
fucking thing it leapt out through the back

1143
01:12:59,399 --> 01:13:01,199
through the back wall. So you
do have to have some sort of little

1144
01:13:01,239 --> 01:13:04,279
rubber legs underneath it to take take
the fucking take the hit out of it.

1145
01:13:04,760 --> 01:13:09,920
But in a lot of cases,
if you have a rusty it's normally

1146
01:13:10,039 --> 01:13:14,760
rust is the problem. Oversalting of
roads and stuff like that can eat the

1147
01:13:14,760 --> 01:13:16,640
ship out of it. There's a
whole there's whole companies around Dublin that make

1148
01:13:17,479 --> 01:13:21,760
they make a full time living for
spraying your car. Like you can.

1149
01:13:21,920 --> 01:13:26,000
You can do it yourself if you
wanted, but I wouldn't suggest it's a

1150
01:13:26,039 --> 01:13:30,600
dirty old job they do, like
chassis coatings and stuff like that. But

1151
01:13:30,680 --> 01:13:32,119
there's stuff you can get as wax
oil as the name, which you can

1152
01:13:32,239 --> 01:13:35,439
paint it onto your metal. It's
like fucking hammer, right, you know.

1153
01:13:35,720 --> 01:13:39,199
Yeah, sure if you buy a
fucking classic, but nobody's going doing

1154
01:13:39,279 --> 01:13:43,680
that ship anyway. Nowadays. Some
of the problems I'm guessing with cars is

1155
01:13:43,760 --> 01:13:46,479
that they actually it's great to have
that they have the plastic covering underneath,

1156
01:13:47,479 --> 01:13:54,279
but in that they allow and create
a fucking I suppose nearly a nice little

1157
01:13:54,319 --> 01:14:01,000
fucking sauna and there, you know. But yeah, big end, right,

1158
01:14:02,199 --> 01:14:08,319
you know, big end, you
know, like you know fucking know

1159
01:14:08,439 --> 01:14:11,079
what I'm talking about. I got
one last question for you, Tom Apilior,

1160
01:14:11,159 --> 01:14:14,479
the man to to use it.
What is the best I suppose the

1161
01:14:14,520 --> 01:14:17,960
word I'd be looking for here is
like lubricant. Yeah, Like I don't

1162
01:14:18,000 --> 01:14:21,119
know whether it would be like a
grease, like a thick grease, or

1163
01:14:21,199 --> 01:14:25,000
like a light lubricant like an oil. But what would be the best one

1164
01:14:25,039 --> 01:14:30,439
to use on the system. This
question is going the system underneath the passenger

1165
01:14:30,560 --> 01:14:35,079
seat of the car that helps that
passenger seat when you press the button underneath

1166
01:14:35,079 --> 01:14:39,399
the gearstick launch a contact through the
roof. First, you gotta find the

1167
01:14:39,479 --> 01:14:41,960
nipple, right first, you got
to great other. Yeah, you gotta

1168
01:14:41,960 --> 01:14:43,880
find the nipple first. I gotta, I gotta, I guess, I

1169
01:14:43,960 --> 01:14:46,159
gotta tell you. Sometimes when I
press the button, he he doesn't go

1170
01:14:46,359 --> 01:14:49,279
all the way, he doesn't pop
out the roof all the way, and

1171
01:14:49,359 --> 01:14:53,199
he's just kind of like, you
know, caught by the legs on the

1172
01:14:53,279 --> 01:14:55,880
sun roof, and I I just
want to make sure that that's greased.

1173
01:14:56,000 --> 01:14:59,760
It's embarrassed. It's embarrassment that you've
left to go to that point. You're

1174
01:14:59,800 --> 01:15:02,319
trying because you've said, you've said, like the per of thing, you

1175
01:15:02,439 --> 01:15:04,760
said, oh, why don't you
get a little bit of air, and

1176
01:15:04,800 --> 01:15:09,880
you press the button and you fucking
done going up with Yeah, I mean,

1177
01:15:09,920 --> 01:15:11,720
there's a bunch of things that could
be the problem there. I mean,

1178
01:15:11,760 --> 01:15:14,600
it might be the you know,
the actual compression with it and all

1179
01:15:14,600 --> 01:15:18,119
the rest. But I have the
compressor, and we hope make the compressor

1180
01:15:18,199 --> 01:15:20,920
underneath it so I know the compression
is good. I feel like we just

1181
01:15:21,039 --> 01:15:27,720
needed you know, I wouldn't put
it over. I wouldn't put over the

1182
01:15:27,760 --> 01:15:30,039
heavy stuff on it, because it's
not You're not asking for a whole day's

1183
01:15:30,039 --> 01:15:32,640
workout of it. You're only asking
for one, one and one and done.

1184
01:15:33,119 --> 01:15:38,520
Damn near I'd be using fucking fin
ass fucking lubricant like fucking dare I

1185
01:15:38,600 --> 01:15:42,399
say, W forty, there you
go, There you go, folks.

1186
01:15:43,199 --> 01:15:46,159
We hope over the course of the
last two episodes we have, if not

1187
01:15:46,640 --> 01:15:51,199
educated you on your car, well
then at least entertained you somewhat. But

1188
01:15:51,359 --> 01:15:56,039
we're bound to have missed out a
whole pile of things. What our tyron

1189
01:15:56,239 --> 01:15:59,680
ends. Who knows? Why did
they cost so much? Who knows why

1190
01:15:59,760 --> 01:16:02,760
do I need to replace them every
four months? He fucking knows. Whatever

1191
01:16:02,920 --> 01:16:06,600
questions you've left about your car,
fucking lob them on over there to the

1192
01:16:06,640 --> 01:16:10,119
Tom and Jerry Show. I'm gonna
tell them where we're gonna find them.

1193
01:16:10,159 --> 01:16:13,640
Tom, We're gonna find us on
most social media platforms. I'm at Jerry

1194
01:16:13,760 --> 01:16:16,960
McBride, Jerry with a G.
He's at Tom monosco Omanny some version of

1195
01:16:17,039 --> 01:16:21,680
that'll get you on the Twitters and
the Instagrams and the don't come at me

1196
01:16:21,720 --> 01:16:25,960
on Facebook. I'm not on Facebook
anymore. Probably one of the best ones

1197
01:16:25,960 --> 01:16:29,479
I've booked, and just for the
Tom and Jerry show alone will be Instagram

1198
01:16:29,560 --> 01:16:31,319
and it is Jerry with a G, as you're saying, because it's one

1199
01:16:31,319 --> 01:16:34,039
of the most fun ones for photographs
we will be putting up. Jerry is

1200
01:16:34,119 --> 01:16:36,560
very good with this kind of thing. He'll be putting up photographs of stuff

1201
01:16:36,680 --> 01:16:40,880
just to not to Riley up,
but at least, at the very least

1202
01:16:40,920 --> 01:16:44,560
start a conversation. So same as
over on Twitter as well. Fine,

1203
01:16:44,800 --> 01:16:47,920
jump on over, have a go
come at me, bro, No do

1204
01:16:48,159 --> 01:16:54,159
please, because I've gotten stuff wrong, for sure, But let it be

1205
01:16:54,279 --> 01:16:57,520
known that it's any of these pieces
of nuggets and knowledge or advice that I'm

1206
01:16:57,520 --> 01:17:00,560
giving you are born out of a
place of fucking find myself being that stupid

1207
01:17:00,640 --> 01:17:04,520
prick going why why, God Why? And I'll take you. I'll take

1208
01:17:04,520 --> 01:17:10,239
you all the way back to what
my owl had told me when I spotted

1209
01:17:10,319 --> 01:17:13,119
that he had two spare wheels in
the car on the morning, the very

1210
01:17:13,159 --> 01:17:15,439
first morning that I borrowed his car, And I said this back at the

1211
01:17:15,439 --> 01:17:18,960
beginning of this part one of this, and I got two fucking punctures that

1212
01:17:19,159 --> 01:17:26,119
fucking morning. And when he found
out, he was the most smug bollys.

1213
01:17:26,239 --> 01:17:30,880
And I swear to god, that
is twenty four years ago almost it'll

1214
01:17:30,880 --> 01:17:33,920
be twenty four years ago in a
month, in less than a month's time.

1215
01:17:34,680 --> 01:17:39,640
And do you think he's forgotten that? So if you want even a

1216
01:17:39,800 --> 01:17:45,159
fucking spoonful of his happiness, I
eat in the guise of smugness, just

1217
01:17:45,319 --> 01:17:49,640
do the stuff I'm telling you,
and trust me, there'll be somebody somewhere

1218
01:17:49,800 --> 01:17:54,039
that you've helped. And sure,
it's nice to help people, but what's

1219
01:17:54,119 --> 01:17:57,479
nice about helping people other than having
one up bottom? Now, to be

1220
01:17:57,520 --> 01:18:01,399
honest, they owe you something.
Oh yes, somewhere, yeah, somewhere

1221
01:18:01,399 --> 01:18:03,920
on Tom and Jerry Show basically is
what I'm trying to say. Well,

1222
01:18:03,960 --> 01:18:08,520
else we want these people exactly.
Of course, if this is your very

1223
01:18:08,560 --> 01:18:11,000
first time getting on board, you're
like, the fuck do I do next?

1224
01:18:11,159 --> 01:18:14,760
Hit subscribe, That's what you do
on whatever platform you're listening on.

1225
01:18:15,680 --> 01:18:17,800
Most of the year on the house. But if these days, if you

1226
01:18:17,880 --> 01:18:20,960
are on Spotify, hit the bell
no icon as well. So at least

1227
01:18:21,000 --> 01:18:25,439
every time this an episode lands up, it'll pop up in your phone.

1228
01:18:25,720 --> 01:18:28,119
And if you wouldn't mind, if
you haven't done already, give us the

1229
01:18:28,159 --> 01:18:30,520
five stars. Less than that is
for call use. Really, given five

1230
01:18:30,600 --> 01:18:33,720
stars doesn't give us any extra money, doesn't give us any extra intelligence.

1231
01:18:33,760 --> 01:18:38,039
They don't send us shit. What
it does is it makes more visible to

1232
01:18:38,079 --> 01:18:42,000
people on other platforms, including Spotify. If you are on Apple and any

1233
01:18:42,000 --> 01:18:44,439
of the rest of them, and
you can actually write something class, do

1234
01:18:44,560 --> 01:18:46,319
a screen grab and send it to
us because for us to try and find

1235
01:18:46,359 --> 01:18:49,039
it, because of course Apple don't
give you a notification. Screen grab it

1236
01:18:49,239 --> 01:18:53,720
and tag us on whatever platform you'd
like us to see it on. Other

1237
01:18:53,800 --> 01:18:57,439
than that, share it be grazy. If you can share it, approach

1238
01:18:57,520 --> 01:19:01,960
us on an evening out getting well, let's not let's let's not get carried

1239
01:19:01,960 --> 01:19:04,039
away, Tom. If you see
me in public, Oh, I want

1240
01:19:04,159 --> 01:19:09,399
more people to me. I'm I'm
I'm at an age now where I want

1241
01:19:09,439 --> 01:19:13,960
to grow. I want to yeah, okay, director, I grow towards

1242
01:19:14,039 --> 01:19:17,640
tom Ah. Tom, you can't
fucking flee to the country and say come

1243
01:19:17,720 --> 01:19:21,800
at me. I live in a
fucking crowded city. Oh yeah, yeah,

1244
01:19:21,920 --> 01:19:24,840
yeah, oh yeah. I feel
invincible out here, by the way,

1245
01:19:24,880 --> 01:19:28,359
with this this kind of chat,
I get it. I feel vulnerable.

1246
01:19:28,399 --> 01:19:30,600
I could be fucking GEO located in
a moment. But I'll tell you

1247
01:19:30,720 --> 01:19:31,920
above all else, and this is
We're gonna wrap it up, pile of

1248
01:19:31,960 --> 01:19:38,000
The one thing we want everybody to
do is the title of this show,

1249
01:19:38,159 --> 01:19:40,720
Tom. We want them to keep
it between the ditches. All of these

1250
01:19:40,800 --> 01:19:44,039
things should help you keep your car
running nice and smooth. And you keep

1251
01:19:44,039 --> 01:19:46,960
it running nice and smooth and safely
as well. There are bigger problems with

1252
01:19:47,079 --> 01:19:50,359
your cars that we have not mentioned. If it squeaks, if it rattles,

1253
01:19:50,520 --> 01:19:55,319
if it jiggers, if it moves
left and right when you're moving right

1254
01:19:55,399 --> 01:19:59,159
and left, take it to the
garage, get it sorted, don't fucking

1255
01:19:59,239 --> 01:20:03,680
leave it to it, don't let
it cause accidents and problems around and like

1256
01:20:03,760 --> 01:20:06,840
that. Keep your motors safe and
keep your road safe. Keep everyone safe.

1257
01:20:06,880 --> 01:20:11,079
How about that? And asking the
more than that? Right, like

1258
01:20:11,159 --> 01:20:16,840
the best, everybody, like h
