 Morning everybody. We're here in Calgary We've got to roll ourselves down to Lethbridge, Alberta today. Tomorrow morning is Monday morning We're gonna pick up some utility trailers and bring them back home and See where the world's at at that point. That'll be Tuesday when I get back home I'll go in and talk to work see how it's looking and if it's still looking kind of promising this trucks Got to go into the shop get an injector replaced or at least looked at might just be wiring I don't know what to say other than that. We don't know this world's pretty crazy right now So remember I am filming this a few days up to a week beforehand So the information I talk about today might be old news to you because it changes by the hour So just a little reminder of that This was where I was at a few days ago So let's get trucking. We only have about two hours to go today What do you think diesel? I gotta give you your food yet. I'm gonna feed the weasel then we're gonna go Hey everybody, we're here in Grenfell, Saskatchewan on our way back home And I figured I would just make this whole trip home One video so there's two days into one Starting this new day now, and I'm just surprised again waking up and being like one of the last ones in the parking lot I Wasn't the last one here and I woke up once again with just enough like with enough time to wake myself up you know go wash my face wash my hands and Grab a coffee, and then I gotta do my pre-trip. So legally I can't even move the truck yet So how's everybody else that got here after me gone already? This guy here the blogger this black truck here behind diesel's my head Maybe you call on your big a me that guy was here After me, so that's the only guy who was Who is still sleeping we should still be sitting because everybody else got here Where'd everybody go you legally couldn't there's no way they could have left already. I can't even legally move yet And they got here after me I mean sometimes there's a way you can get going sooner. You can work your logbook in a way that can legally Do that I understand that but all of them every single one of them like again And notice I only noticed this in Canada where the e-logs haven't been mandated yet That's supposed to come through this year or next year. We mandated up here But anyone who travels down to the US we are mandated to have logbooks that are electronic So obviously all these guys Don't go to the US or maybe they just run on paper logs when they're up here It worries me to see this it really does because you know the people are not following the rules Unless if I'm missing something maybe I'm missing something I don't know none of my business. They say okay. None of my business. All right, so let's Get everything going here. I gotta do our pre-trip go to walk a weasel. Yeah, man. We're gonna go home. You want to go home You're gonna go see mom and Chevy Frankie and wiener You want to go home? Let's do it. Let's do it man. Let's go home So that's a beautiful day out here pretty quiet but It's the way everything is nowadays, huh? I'll show you this real quick. We got two To dump trailers up here, I'd love to have one of these I really would and we got two utility trailers behind that Essential utility trailers So I posted a link on my Facebook page To a site called world world. Oh meters or something like that world meters And it's keeping track as best it can of the Fires as it spreads throughout the world which countries are affected how many new cases each country has how many new deaths it has And it resets every day and gives you the totals to show you how many new cases and deaths Happen within 24 hours Within the past what 18 hours the u.s has risen by 7500 cases up to 50,000 by the time you watch this Probably higher than that Canada we're still sitting pretty low right now What the site does it also shows you the The number of people per million that are affected so it sort of gives you more of a per capita number Italy's still doing pretty bad China's apparently passed it. Yeah, right. They're just not reporting it in my opinion Or they have the cure and they've had the cure this whole time I mean that's the only way it could have just stopped dead in its tracks, right? But whatever it's I'm not an expert I'll let other people figure that out Yeah, we're we're headed home got a hold of the shop looks like I'll be bringing it there after hours today And they'll probably start working on it tomorrow Hopefully it's just like a wiring issue or maybe like an injector cup or something Gotta get my transmission fluid changed as well because that's been given It's time in the water pump Yeah, you know when it rains it pours when it pours the cloud bursts just gushes That's okay. I mean we all got we hope we're all in the same boat right now All in the same boat, so I'm here in Manitoba now It's central Manitoba. We're getting close to Portage La Prairie And I'm very happy to see that at least half of the snow has melted away Very happy to see that spring is around the corner. It's something to look forward to There's only a few things in this world to look forward to right now each day is sort of a It's a white-knuckle kind of day, right? Just hope for the best, but at least things are getting warmer, right? Hopefully that helps I'm not sure what Britt and I have planned. I know she's still working For as long as she can So I might I might run into Winnipeg tomorrow Run a few errands, get a few things done, pick up a few things, stock up on a few things I'll take you along with me. It'll be fun I'll show you what the shelves look like in Winnipeg They keep getting restocked pretty quickly, but it clears out even faster. It seems We're still on the hunt for a hand sanitizer I'm making my own. Don't worry. I still have some and then I have plenty enough supplies of gel and rubbing alcohol to make my own, but it's almost become like a Game to me in a sense, you know every store I go into I always go to the hand sanitizer aisle to see if I can find any So far no luck It's just sort of hand sanitizer vlogger and hand sanitizer journal The day is March 20th There's still no hand sanitizer Anywhere, I've stopped at 25 stores and it has been cleared out. It's the hand sanitizer apocalypse of 2020 I don't blame people for buying it because when I find some I'm gonna buy it too Just so that I have some you know I always have some in all the vehicles and at home and stuff I always make sure there's some there, but I've got a restock sooner or later and it's hard to find it How are you guys doing still doing good? Look at this. Look at all the snow is almost gone. Yeah, this is like 75% gone It's getting even better I have to start up the old lawnmower soon Get the old beest running again for the season Let's take a new so long with all that food that's still left in there So this one inhales it I Don't know. I don't even know if he's chewed one bit I don't think he's chewed any of it and diesel chews and enjoys every single morsel That better pace yourself man. It's just you enjoy it longer Shelby I didn't even taste it Plays me yours diesel Yeah, and he's done. He's a slower eater not as slow as our foster boy though. This guy over here We got to sit here and every single meal And coax him to eat help him out usually takes about a half hour at least every meal It's already put you on the spot here, bud My hand and your virus and me For some reason he just doesn't like eating. It's not his favorite thing to do This little guy the wiener over here who's like freaking out He's faster than Chevy He will inhale it. We have to soak it So that it goes down his throat easier. Otherwise, he tries to eat it so fast that it gets stuck in his throat and It's good scratch up his throat. Yeah, he's had he's had some instances Some incidents incidents man, then he almost starts choking So we soak it for him so that it just goes down smooth, but man Gobbles it right down. You want to see I'm gonna see Light in here a little bit dark in there. Yeah, although I have to just wait you wait You guys see it. It might be a little dark You wait. No, don't do tricks for it. Wait. I wish we had a light under there to show you guys Chevy almost done almost done. It's like a race against time 15 years or so I installed these lights under here recently. Maybe that'll help Now once I put this out of YouTube it always takes it darkens it on its own for some reason YouTube always does that and you can't lighten it properly done. Yeah, good boy. Now that everyone else is finished We have to sit down and Work with big Frank to get him to eat Yeah, there's a lot of family team team spirit to get him to go Chevy has to lay there patiently and watch or else you won't eat Yeah, it's no noises. No sudden movements. Yeah, just stop and walk away Yeah, whoever's on the floor feeding him has to sit there and constantly try to get him to keep eating And whoever's not feeding him has to sit perfectly still and not make any noise Any little noise will distract him and we're done then he doesn't eat He likes it. It's like a game for him. He's got complete control of us But it is dark outside already so Spent the day waiting for the truck. I did get word back from them that I'm supposed to be getting the truck back tomorrow we're not sure the valves were completely out of adjustment apparently and A few other things needed adjustments. So pretty much my motor my engine just needed a tune-up So we didn't need to replace the injector. Thank goodness. It was just a pretty well needed overdue tune-up and So they got that done they started it up. It worked great and then suddenly it just didn't want to stay running You got air alarm going off over here, Brit Supposed to remember something Chevy But yeah, then the truck didn't want to stay running They couldn't keep the engine running and then they found out that there was no fuel pressure And the only problem they could find with that was that the fuel filter housing There's a valve in there that was most likely sticking because once they Manually went in to pressurize the fuel to push the fuel through suddenly it started working again It started working just fine. They called me up told me what was going on They said they sort of wanted to keep it there overnight and check on it in the morning and see if it was still running Okay, or if it was going to cause problems again So that's where we're at now. So everything is fixed now other than that So they're gonna check on it in the morning see if it acts up again if it does then we can fix it from there but if not Guess we got our truck back It's been a rough couple of months with the truck being in the shop so much But as long as this fuel filter housing isn't gonna give me problems in the future It's I think we're done with the shop for a while That's what I say every time but this time for real Done with the shop. I'm done with it. Chevy. What do you think? I'm gonna start making you fix my truck about that So we can't really leave the house just like you So we're trying to keep ourselves entertained and busy Britt made a fang a fang-tastic fantastic fantastic meal Well, what do you call that it's a stir fry not a stir fry Chicken and broccoli casserole The only other people that I know of that I've had the privilege of eating it are my cousin Chris doesn't Chris and Tanya And you know how to make it perfect You have a gift thank you So we're gonna try to Fill up our time here with games. I guess we're gonna play UNO Guys ever play UNO. You know what UNO is? I don't I know what it is But every time I we don't play cards that often we should play games more often We played that Christmas trivia That's true. Yeah, we played that quite a few times I'm excited. We're gonna play some UNO. You're gonna show them your casserole. You like went from one topic Where is it? Where's my casserole? You weren't eating it so I put yours away. There it is. There it is. Oh You guys have no idea how good that is right there All it is is chicken breast broccoli one can of Cream of chicken soup one can of cream of mushroom soup if you don't like mushrooms you can just put two cans of cream of chicken Half a cup of butter mixed into like heat it up and mix into a bag of crushed original ritz crackers and Then a whole bunch of cheddar cheese on top and then you bake it but pre-cook the chicken Yes, you know we should make a blog out of it for your channel when you do Make stuff like that. They've all been asking they've all been asking what's what's going on with Brits be Told you I talked her about it. I'll be filming some stuff now that I'm on self-quarantine Gotta do something right as well. Keep you guys in the loop like hey guys still living Just know that a lot of time and effort goes into her videos because I take the computer with me on the road to edit my videos and the she uses the backup computer that stays at home and it's slow It is ancient slow like 1995 slow So to edit a video like aside from filming it and everything it takes your hours and hours and hours So they're very special And hey, there was a lot of patience that went into it. It was like a minimum of On a really good day when the computer was running at like top-notch four hours for like a 12-minute blog it was four hours of just waiting for the computer to load So it's one of the reasons why it's sort of discouraged her from making more videos was that we don't have a very good second computer And we'll get there. We'll get one yet can't complain, but What's this is all over we have plans to upgrade but for now it's Take some time and effort so The link to her channel is down below every one of my videos if you didn't know this now, you know You can go and subscribe there and good news. We have the truck back. It's a good feeling My soul is at peace and hold again And the price wasn't too bad. I mean it hurt, but it wasn't too. It was 1,700 bucks so it It stung, but it was Manageable right now. I was really worried that it was gonna get up into multiple thousands So this was a nice relief So they checked out the engine. I remember I had a vibration in the engine I thought it was the injector the good news is it wasn't the injector I just needed a valve adjustment. That's all it needed. So here's The long list of things that they did here for the engine system I'll read it out here for you so you know what they did They said oh, I brought it in for a check engine vibration and smoking. I Didn't tell them it was smoking but they must have just added that in there Uh customer suspects injector fault. That's what I told them So here's what they did bear with me They took the unit for test drive found turbo-surgery and not maintaining boost Unit has an engine vibration Yes, it did Connected diagnostic computer and checked faults found inactive fault for cylinder 1 offset. That's that's the one Performed sensor monitor and verified proper sensor readings performed EGR cooler check was spooled down test multiple times verified EGR cooler not plugged Removed turbo actuator. That's what we got replaced last time. We were in Langley there. That was a brand new part I just removed it and inspected sector shaft verified. No faults better not have any faults. We just replaced that Calibrated turbo and reinstalled the actuator. So that was all good Removed boost pressure sensor and inspected verified it wasn't plugged Connected test sensor and compared values verified sensor value did not change Performed basic advanced air and fuel tests found air in the fuel. That was one of my problems They inspected the davko found debris under the o-ring cleaned and reassembled the davko filter repeated basic air and fuel test verified No further air in the fuel And they performed cylinder balancing test found cylinder 1 at 70% Performed electronic compression test during compression test found batteries were low They must have just had them on for walks. Those are brand new Anyways, checked battery connections found the master switch connections loose I've been having a lot of problems with batteries Fixed that charged the batteries Repeated electronic compression test found cylinder 6 low compression Removed air filter housing and ducting brackets and piping and removed valve cover loosened engine cover Not loosened engine brake rocker springs and checked valve clearances found valves tight on multiple cylinders. Let engine cool down Performed valve adjustment found exhaust valves on all cylinders tight and intake valve for cylinder 6 tight reinstalled all previously removed parts Performed electronic compression test found cylinders now reading within specification And found ecu saw for update available and performed that update Started the engine and inspected found engine ticking Started the engine and inspected found engine ticking Removed air filter housing and ducting brackets and piping and removed valve cover unbolted and removed the rocker shaft Removed all vcb pistons and inspected found all pistons loose Secured all vcb pistons with loctite and reassembled Installed rocker shaft assembly and performed valve adjustment Reinstalled all previously removed parts connected diagnostic computer found the soot load was at 92% Moved the unit outside and started stationary regen Found regen temperatures within specification Regen completed with no faults cleared faults and took the unit for test drive verified the repair And that was that and then for the water pump They they just replaced the water pump for me as well So that was a a long list of things they did to fix my my engine vibration But I'm glad they were able to fix that and that it wasn't the injector because those injectors are just under $1,000 each here in Canada And if I had to replace them all with labor that would be six to seven thousand dollars. So let's be thankful it wasn't that That's why I was kind of happy with just this so it was manageable for now and we can keep the truck running Uh, I'm keep making money with it So I'm leaving on a trip tomorrow We have a load of lumber that's going down to wisconsin and from wisconsin We have a load that's taking us over to ontario And then we have a load from ontario lined up already that's taking us back here. I think it's going through to alberta So we got our next week planned out already. So I'm glad I got the truck back I guess we'll take it from here feel a lot better feel a lot better to have it back I hate it when my truck's in the shop. It just drives me nuts All's good now
