 Hi guys, I got you zoomed in here. I don't know how well you can see this, but this thing does not charge right and That's probably a reason there. There's a good reason there Let me I zoom you in a little bit on there. See that This wouldn't close all the way around that terminal This would not close all the way around this terminal So he stuck something in there to take up the space and as you can see it's It's all the way tightened up. So Well, we're going to try to do here Let me get you in a little bit. We're going to try to take this thing Well, see that? I mean it's loose Same way with the other side. It's um You know, it's tightened all the way up, but I can still Do this to it So I'm gonna have to try to figure out a way. Okay, he bought these for me. He bought the stuff Monkey went and took him out for lunch yesterday get him out of the rehab place a little bit and so he gave me these put onto these ends on These cables here And then they're going to screw on to here. Hopefully I hope they'll fit Let's just check that right now And if they do I'm going to solder them. I'm not going to crimp them If I can help it if I have to crimp them, I will but I think I'm just going to try to solder them on there Okay, so with the positive. Yeah, that'll fit. All right, and I brought another little cable for the ground for the ground wire to so I Think it'll be all right. So let's go ahead. I'm going to grab some tools That's loose. Let's go ahead and get these old ones off of here and Then we'll See what we can do with these. I hate these things. Whoops. Just dropped one Hate these things are supposed to go on there supposed to help keep from corrosion, but I Don't believe in them a lot of guys These things here a lot of guys. They'll put grease on there But what causes corrosion guys if you think about it is dirt, right? well, if You spray grease on there or that terminal stuff that battery terminal stuff. I don't believe in it because We all know grease if you drop a little bit of grease on the ground It picks up dirt in dust and you know to me that that's worse than leaving it like this See as you can tell this is not corroded It just wasn't the right stuff. Let me get the tools and let's see what we can do All right Battery cleaner terminal cleaner I think I may different wrench, but we'll see This one might work. This will take care of the issue of it starting real slow I don't think it's getting a full charge into the battery and I'll check the water level in the battery as well. See that should be like that It worked. All right, so Let's move this off here for a minute. Just take this and you turn it on there Say that that cleans it off nice and neat So anyway, if you got these things if you look inside there, there could be a little paint There just take your little brush Clean it out a little bit I remember my dad using a pocket knife and scraping them terminals to clean them, but Eventually you're gonna wear wear it down to where there's no You know you're gonna have this problem where this is not gonna fit right see this one's gonna fit really good Well, you can't see it, but yeah, see that's gonna fit very nice. So What I'm gonna do next on here also Clean these up pretty good. It's not too bad. So That's pretty decent that that should suffice now We're gonna take these We're just gonna lately make these into Get them Raft around there. Can you see that? I'm on the other side of the cameras. I really can't see the screen that well I'm gonna try to solder this so you guys can see and this is the cable this heavy cable here We're gonna run on the To the which I'll have to get another wrench for it. Yeah Anyway, I'm gonna run it over here to the body ground and this is loose too, huh? Okay, so I'm guessing that's gonna be their starting issue Now I'm gonna try to do this so you guys can see that and you can crimp these I just like to fill them up with solder If I can so I got to get something a little different here So I can hold this on there because I want the solder to run down inside not crimping them In fact, that's what I'm gonna do. I'm gonna crimp that and then I'll solder I don't have a regular crimper for this I should be able to solder that not pretty but I'm gonna go ahead and do this next one just like I did that one all right, so I Got these taped up and cleaned off and soldered real nice Well solder ain't that great, but it's old solder I guess So I'm gonna put this on here Don't don't tap on that guys I'm speaking from experience When I tell you don't tap on them That's plastic that'll break. So I'm gonna put this one on the bottom This don't matter guys. It's just the way I'm doing it. You do it now. I wanted to put a regular nut on This thing I don't have one big enough unfortunately So maybe I do hang on. Let me go check. Nope. I don't so I Guess we're just going to have to go with them. I hate them things. You can't never get them tight enough I Just I just don't like them, you know and these don't have to be super duper tight Just just till you can't twist them no more. Okay. Now this I want to try to get as tight shit No feeling I'm gonna try to get as tight as I can Okay, so you can't move them wires All right Now this one's pretty much the same way The only difference is I'm gonna be putting this cable one there. I Don't know if I can get you down in there, but let's try Maybe back out a little bit. Okay, so let's take Thank you Bruno. Thank you Bruno was trying to hand me my wrench He's a good helper. All right. So there's these And of course, you know, I'll save these for something these little bolts come in handy sometimes Then that's off. I'm coming handy But I mean they're still good if you can you know if you find the right size battery You know you could you could use these I'd say this is a positive terminal because your positive positive terminals always bigger than your negative so But you know they may be able to be used again in a pinch maybe on our track, you know, we'll see but I'm not gonna throw them away So What we're gonna do now is I'm gonna clean these up a little bit here. I mean, they're not bad. They're not real corroded real bad So just give them a you know a nice Just a nice little deal there Now I've already got This terminal clean so I'm gonna clean that one on the battery You can use sandpaper too. Just don't try not to take too much off You know you can put sandpaper in there or up inside there, whatever you got You know if you have to scrape them, you know, you have to But I hate doing that. There's been times when I've had to do it You know out somewhere didn't have anything but a pocket knife on me now I'm gonna bring you right here and show you what we're gonna do on this side. Okay now this This is mounted over here on the fender. It's a body ground. Let me get my hands out the way see that I Noticed when I was checking that wrench to see if it fit this thing moved. It's not very tight so we're gonna take this one off and take that one off and We're gonna put this heavy-duty Bugger on here, but first I need to go get a wrench to fit this Not cleaning that up a little bit on it getting somewhere Remember you can go to the you you can go to the eep, but you don't want to go eep snap. Okay? All right now. Let me get you up here in the air so you can see what else I'm going to do next All right, this one the same way as the positive one put that down on there And I grabbed the wrong wrench. Why don't you guys say something, but that's okay. That's all right I'm not gonna I'm not gonna fire you guys for that Like I said, don't don't don't put these Don't squeeze them all the way together They just have to be to where you can't turn them You don't have to squeeze that all the way together there. Okay now this one Is the ground so I want to make sure that I get the heaviest one on first And I cleaned that up a little bit most paint off of it And we're gonna put this on this on then we're going to start the truck up and We're going to let it charge. I know it's dead. Well, it's not dead. It's uh, I Know it's it's pretty low because when I started it to turn it around It kind of grunted a little bit So we're gonna start it up let it run for a minute. We're gonna go from there Let's shut this off and see if it'll start I'm gonna put turn you around here so you can see the fan Maybe you can hear it better. I don't know. We'll see how well it starts now I just noticed something is ready to break so they're gonna need a new belt and I'll put a new belt on it for him I'm sure he's gonna want one. He's a gearhead. I mean he could do all the stuff he's self But he only has one leg now and he's in Rehabilitation for that one leg and he's missing some toes and poor guy, but he can't do the stuff anymore. So I Am very happy. This is my life, you know doing this stuff guys and you probably know that but you know I've been I started working in my dad's junkyard at 10 years old He would give me say an alternator, right? He would say see a red car up there. Yeah Take this part up there. Yeah Find the one under the hood that looks like this and take it off No problem, right He'd give me the tools. I need just the right amount of tools Okay, so Then I'd come back down dad. There's another big piece in the way. Well, there is well How you gonna get it off? I'm like, I don't know Well, you better get to know it, you know Whatever's in the way you have to take off Okay, I take you some tools up there and take it off whatever it was whatever it was in the way and I'd take it off And I bring him down the alternator and he'd be like, all right great job son. Did you put the old one back on? I'm like, it's no good dad. It's a return. It's no good to you know, why would I put it back on? He said because You won't find out Not everything just involves taking stuff off. You got to learn to put stuff back together Which is hardest and he won a lion Now it's fairly easy to me, you know, I've been through a lot of schooling. I may as he certified a bunch of stuff and but And he and I would go back and I would put it on he was right and I couldn't skip because he'd come up and check My work You can put that belt back on we just said put the alternator on well How's the alternator gonna work if the belt's not on then of course me being a smart ass that I am I'd say well, how's it gonna work anyway? The alternator's no good He'd say son Put the damn belt on So that's how I learned, you know, and then you know I took shop class in school and then I took a trade school my last two years my junior and senior year I Went to a school in Ohio and I took auto mechanics they call it auto tech now I did I teach some night classes a few years later at the same shop and So it's pretty cool But anyway and but 90% of the stuff you learn guys anybody can read a manual and tell you this is what you know You got to take this off this off that off Okay, come and show me why I don't know how because you know maybe they don't have the strength to get that bolt out You know it just says pry on that alternator or you know take this tool and bend it back They don't know how to use the tools and then there's guys that go by you know $10,000 worth of tools now they're a mechanic no because you have to have this this is the number one tool My dad taught me this is your number one tool You can fix a lot of things with a paper clip and he wasn't lying Because I know one time my my fuse blew and my suburban for my fuel pump I didn't have a paper clip. My oldest daughter was with me Bambi. I said damn phone had a paper clip Because I didn't have any extra fuse. I didn't want to take any other fuses out and swap them I don't want to do that only for testing purposes. I don't want to do that And she just all at once here comes this little hand up here daddy. I got one What did you get a paper clip? You always told me carry a paper clip So anyway that got us out of that gym, but right here's the number one if you don't know how you know If you don't know what these are How you going to use them? What are you going to know what to use them on? You know So this is your number one tool learn you learn 90 What I was going to say was you you learn 90 percent I've learned 90 percent of stuff on my own And I don't mean that as impacting myself on the back I mean because there's not always going to be your teacher there or your father there or your mentor there With you. So you're going to have to learn you're going to go shit. You know what? I didn't have to take that off of there You know and you learn different things and you learn by doing it not by reading it Remember that guys. So thanks for watching. I appreciate it. Hope this helped someone Shea bear the myth man legend. I'm gone for now. Bye. Bye guys and take care
