Old Cold Forgotten Buick Seat Repair

[CODxFUNxMAN]

i fixed mine as well its just one nut easy fix but hard to get at, unless u have a small rachet.

[eaglevision993]

Nice videos, I like the idea fixing a car other people would most likely just get rid of.

I always do my own automotive repairs on all my and my family´s cars. All are US cars btw.

Best regards from Germany

[Mario95BG]

You have great american car.I love even the Chrysler Voyager :D No not really I just love America and it's cars :)

[liber45]

Pull a bolt from the back seat, more then likley they are the same.

[RabbitEarFran]

Thank you for keeping these car, Billy! :)

[MrMoterKid]

Its a redneck ejection seat!

[TheJoshua999]

great job with the car. I own an 88 electra and an 89. both white. and i am super happy with both of the cars. 88 has 189,000 on it and the 89 has 240,000 and i just got it and it needs just as much work as yours. And im going to invest the 1,000 dollars to do all the repairs.

[Bonnev1932]

Anyway, this video is awesome, I thought I knew how to work on cars (I'd give myself a 6 out of 10, 10 being pro mechanic, but you guys would make me look like a stone wielding cro-magnon. Where do you even get all of the tools to do this sort of thing?! If I had that many tools they'd end up on different continents, I just can't keep track, haha. Ignore cynics like the man below (obviously you do). Some people are just never happy until everyone else is miserable.

[Bonnev1932]

Burntvalve86, allow me to correct your horrendous spelling, sentence structure and grammar errors in regards to your last submittal. I believe you meant to say "You clowns give AN ENTIRELY new meaning to the word "Redneck". You are POOR EXCUSES for mechanics. THE FINAL REPAIR THAT THIS CAR NEEDS, IS BEING PUSHED OFF OF A CLIFF. See? I even capitalized the newly corrected segments. Please refrain from criticizing someone who is clearly more knowledgeable than yourself, especially in this arena.

[TheJoshua999]

u must not know much about cars, because i own two of theese cars with similar mialage and they both run better than two slightly used cars put together!

[02chevyguy]

@Bonnev1932 Go to burntvalve86's comment page and read the comments he's made to other people. Just make sure you're not drinking anything when you do...it might wind up all over your monitor from you laughing too hard at them.

[burntvalve86]

You clowns give a entirley new definition of ' Red neck " you are poor excuses for a mechanic. Do the final repair this automobile needs, push it off a cliff

[uxwbill]

Lessee here...you call us "poor mechanics" despite the fact that we fixed the problem instead of just throwing an otherwise *fine* car away?

Oooookay...our definitions of "poor" clearly differ. We tried and succeeded in solving the problem.

[jeditigg]

I think its a great car. It runs and drives. That more than a few people can say about there car. About the rocking seat, my 65 Fairlane before I replaced the seat track, used to slide forward and back freely. Since it was a bench it was a lot of fun to slam on the brakes with an unsuspecting passenger.

[romonechevy]

@burntvalve86 you are a jackass and they are not redneck and good mechanics

[uxwbill]

@romonechevy Thanks for the support, but there isn't much reason to say any more than I already did. Look at their channel and you can see they have a bit of a fixation, even leaving berating comments on their own channel.

I'm not going to let stupid Internet trolls bug me anyway. If they don't like how I'm doing it, there are millions of other YT channels and cameras are cheap these days, if they can be bothered to do anything other than bitch about those of us who can and do! :-)

[MOTERHEAD69]

@uxwbill Hey just out of interest, How come your dad went from driving the silver buick to driving this one after you guys got it fixed

[uxwbill]

@MOTERHEAD69 Good question. I don't recall the reasoning behind his decision now.

[tubageek2006]

@uxwbill Didn't your dad start driving the Electra after you sold the Red Rocket and the Keykeeper began driving the silver Buick?

[Ronsky89]

i guess the 3800 is really a popular engine. a couple of days ago i was at the shop and one of the other students had a 92 buick lesabre with the 3800. he had nothing but good things to say about it. it was sure nice to see that engine upclose. watching these videos, it was like getting a celebrity's autograph after seeing all this movies.

[scarlebloke]

Brilliant series of videos! Nice work from you and proof, if ever proof was needed, of how good American cars really are.

[mgospeed31]

Niiiice. Good work fellas. It is so rewarding to fix something with your own two hands. By the way uxwbill....I noticed the driver side windshield wiper blade on your pickup...I have been wanting to get ones like that for my Grand Prix and my Jeep, but couldn't bring myself to spend the $15 or so dollars on them. Would you recommend them? I don't can't think of anyone else that I know that has them.

[uxwbill]

We like fixing stuff, whether it's cars, houses, computers (that one is my specialty), appliances and whatnot.

As far as the windshield wiper goes, there's nothing all that special about it. It's just whatever NAPA sells that happens to be appropriate for 2003 S-10s.

[mgospeed31]

Huh, it looked like one of those really expensive ones that are supposed to be aerodynamic or something. Meh. I have been working on a 2001 Land Rover for about two months, and this thing has more electrical bugs than Apollo 13.

[MOTERHEAD69]

Is the check engine light on in this buick or only the other one

[uxwbill]

Both of them have it on. It's because there is a problem in the camshaft sensor circuit. Without that circuit working properly, these cars won't go into sequential fuel injection mode. So the engine light comes on.

I believe the wiring and sensor are OK on both cars. That leads me to believe that whatever the sensor senses (probably a magnet) has fallen off or is broken. Getting to that doesn't look to be a lot of fun...

[allagillarvolvo]

Happy Easter and welcome back=)

gr8 fix there.

5/5

[wassahilden]

good taste in music

[usahorse721]

Welcome back!!!

[tss212]

floppy cock for sure

[moldymac]

Its been taking me longer to get my 87 lesabre running, been working on it for close to 2 years, still not driveable. Maybe one day I'll finish it

[jaimehatespapi]

They're baaaack!

[Rare92Mustang]

Thats a pretty nice red camaro across the street.. You should buy it..

[TaurusLX1988]

you should get rid of that rust problem, and this car would be number 1...

[makaveli087]

Good Stuff!

[thegetupkid7609]

Happy Easter, I always hate working on tight spots like that. Make for a fun day LoL

[Minion1186]

that just shows that gm cars are tough

[84hachi]

Happy Easter. Keep up the great vids.

[BonhommeRichard91]

We need to see more of that caddy phaeton.

[naterade21]

HAPPY EASTER and keep makin good vids bill

[buickboy92]

BTW: Great Buick, you have. Always like them.

[buickboy92]

Great Video! glad to see your up and running again! oh and Happy Easter!

[CWM480]

HAHAHAHA @ The Key Keeper talking about the FLOPPY COCK van over on David's Farm LOL I see you guys are fan's of him :P

haha Or maybe Key Keeper is lol.

[uxwbill]

Davidsfarm is what got me back into making videos. One of these days I should dust off and edit some of the stuff I have on VHS.

[CWM480]

oh wow! Never knew that

Wow VHS stuff eh? Oldie but a goodie stuff!

Gotta get that up on youtube soon

So whats the status on the Mac? Did you get it fixed?

[Jasons1487]

keep the videos coming

[jumbomarkercreations]

The antenna on the old cold forgotten buick's trunk, is that a wilson lil wil antenna? & does it have a CB radio?

[uxwbill]

Yes and yes. We took the radio out temporarily to work on the seat.

[jumbomarkercreations]

What kind of CB do you have in the buick?

[uxwbill]

It varies. I don't play around with them much, but the Keykeeper and our dad both have one. The Keykeeper has a Cobra radio that's a microphone and radio combination in the silver Buick.

I think our dad has a Robyn radio in this Buick.

[jumbomarkercreations]

Those mic/CB combos arent the best. If i ever get my hands on a working uniden CB i'd mail it to you guys. I have enough CBs at my house as-is haha

[uxwbill]

This one is surprisingly good--it receives well, transmits well and can certainly be heard if you turn it up.

We have quite a few here as well and don't need any more! :-)

[evildwarf]

"Old Cold Forgotten Buick Seat" sounds like a black metal song name.

[Motorfordtoyota]

when are you going to get your lumina going again. Man those 3.8s can be as reliable as a toyota or a honda

[iamdave0887]

My friends Buick LeSabre has 308,000+ miles on it, and still runs great. You can't kill a 3.8.

[jovanvictoria]

excellent video bud keep it up hope there is more to come

[JoeSchlubb]

glad to see you guys are back, its amazing how much time can go into finding a bolt. That seems to be how my projects go too, 30 minutes just to find the tools, 20 minutes to do the actual work, and 2 hours and 3 trips to the store for parts!

[MAG315]

Enjoyed the lasted installment in the continuing saga of the old cold forgotten Buick guys. It was a cliffhanger and had me on the edge of my seat for a while but I knew you guys would come through in the end.

[uxwbill]

"The edge of your seat"

I'm not sure if you meant that to be funny or not, but I found it--perhaps unintentionally--hilarious.

[richthecardude94]

hapy easter

[nipperoid]

nice cars all over there

and a nice looking 3rd gen camaro!

[donbehatin]

Buick: Big Ugly Indestructable Car Killer.

They run and run and run and run until the Energizer Bunny is jealous.

5 stars. Good to see someone taking car of one of the lesser known great American cars.

[Ronsky89]

great video. nice to see that old buick in good condition. sure it doesnt look like it, but i would want to take that for a drive. since ive had my car ive found that fluid leaks are annoying. its got plenty of them.

[EdDogg83]

btw nice to see your back up and running the vids again

[uxwbill]

Got 'em going on a PowerPC based Mac mini for now. It is doing better than I thought it would.

[EdDogg83]

as long as it works thats all that matters right... Happy Easter

[thegetupkid7609]

Ok so any update on operation critter camera?

[EdDogg83]

nice vid man
