**Overhauling a Engine: A Step-by-Step Guide**

When it comes to overhauling an engine, there are several challenges that can arise. One common issue is getting the new parts installed correctly. To solve this problem, one approach is to use a long, thin tool, such as a steel rod or hook, to insert into the socket and pull out the old part. This method works by wedging the part into place and then using the tool to lever it out. For example, if the engine has a faulty thermostat, a person may try to remove the old one by inserting a long, thin metal rod into the socket and pulling it out. However, this method requires care and patience, as the wrong approach can damage the surrounding components.

Another common problem when overhauling an engine is dealing with stuck parts. In some cases, the new part may not fit properly or may be stuck in place due to debris or corrosion. To solve this issue, a person may try using heat to loosen the part and then use a tool, such as a steel rod or hook, to lever it out. For example, if the engine has a leaky radiator hose, a person may try heating the old hose with a blowtorch to soften the material and then removing it by inserting a long, thin metal rod into the socket and pulling it out.

**Investment in Green Energy: A Misguided Approach**

Some experts believe that investing in green energy sources, such as windmills and solar panels, is a sound strategy for reducing our reliance on fossil fuels. However, this approach has its limitations. For example, windmills and solar panels are not capable of producing large amounts of electricity, making them unsuitable for meeting the energy demands of modern society. Furthermore, these technologies are expensive to develop and maintain, requiring significant investments in infrastructure and technology.

One potential consequence of investing in green energy is the need for new sources of funding. Governments and private companies may be required to provide subsidies and grants to support the development and deployment of these technologies. However, this approach has its drawbacks. For example, many experts believe that government investment in green energy projects often results in inefficient use of resources and wasted money.

**The Reality of Nuclear Energy**

Some people argue that nuclear power is a viable alternative to fossil fuels and can help reduce our reliance on these energy sources. However, this approach also has its limitations. For example, the production of nuclear energy requires significant amounts of fuel and generates radioactive waste. Furthermore, the technology itself is complex and expensive to develop and maintain.

Despite these challenges, some companies are investing in new technologies that promise to improve the efficiency and safety of nuclear power plants. However, these efforts are often met with skepticism by experts who argue that nuclear energy is not a viable alternative to fossil fuels. Instead, they believe that investment in green energy sources is a more promising approach.

**The Inflation Reduction Act: A Misguided Policy**

In an effort to address climate change and reduce our reliance on fossil fuels, the government has introduced the Inflation Reduction Act, which provides $27 billion in loans and grants to support the development and deployment of clean energy technologies. However, many experts believe that this policy is misguided for several reasons. First, the funds provided under the act are often used inefficiently, with companies diverting the money towards projects that do not meet the stated goals.

Second, the act's focus on renewable energy sources is likely to have a limited impact on our reliance on fossil fuels. For example, windmills and solar panels are not capable of producing large amounts of electricity, making them unsuitable for meeting the energy demands of modern society. Furthermore, these technologies are expensive to develop and maintain, requiring significant investments in infrastructure and technology.

**The Road Ahead**

As we move forward, it is clear that the fantasy world of green energy is a long way off. Instead, experts believe that we need to focus on developing new technologies and improving existing ones in order to meet our energy demands. This may involve investing in nuclear power or other forms of energy production that are more efficient and sustainable than renewable energy sources.

It is also clear that the government's approach to addressing climate change needs to be more effective. Rather than providing subsidies and grants to support green energy projects, we need to focus on developing new technologies that can meet our energy demands in a responsible and sustainable way. This may involve investing in research and development, as well as working with companies and other stakeholders to develop new solutions.

In conclusion, overhauling an engine requires careful planning and attention to detail. However, it is also clear that the fantasy world of green energy is not likely to meet our energy demands anytime soon. Instead, we need to focus on developing new technologies and improving existing ones in order to create a more sustainable future for ourselves and future generations.

"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enrev up your engin this Australian guy invented this rever what it is is a Bolton electric motor that can turn your car into a hybrid electric car and this plans is to turn your internal combustion engine into a plug-in hybrid car for $3,200 us the way it works is that's where you're breaking your wheel hub It Bolts right on so instead of having to do all this crazy crap you just take one of the wheels off you bolt it on there guy says it takes less than a day to install the system the motor Hub motor bolts on to one of the wheels right and then the battery you can put in the trunk or wherever there's space pretty smart idea now I've been pushing this for ages I said that's somebody's going to make a lot of money converting cars now if you have a smaller car like say my Toyota S car hint hint you guys in Australia if you want to push this in the United States send a kit to Scotty Kilmer in Tennessee and I will install it and try it out I'd love to try it out that to me makes the most sense you already got wheels right now in the case of the Celica that I have the 94 Celica okay it's front-wheel drive so you'd leave the engine in it for the front-wheel drive but then on the rear wheel that are just spinning the brakes you would put the Hub motor there and then the battery would be in the trunk close to it I would love to test on to me that makes total why throw a good car away when you can turn your car into a hybrid car and a small car like this the guy claims it's 15 Kow battery can take it over 62 Mi of all electric range that would be phenomenal that would be a game changer if this Australian guy starts Mass producing these things his name is Alexander Burton and he's a university design student hey Alexander you get a prototype that'll work on a 94 cica send me one I'll make videos on it I'll drive the thing around hey send me one of those now it's a prototype thing now but he gets it out there and I mean this idea right the general idea you could pay it in your specifics but you couldn't pet the idea of sticking a motor on a hub right anybody else is working on one send me one and I love to try it out right throw your money away buying a new expensive hybrid electric car when you can turn your car into one and let's say you got one with a blown engine or transmission well what the heck you could just turn it into an electric car that can go 62 Mi not a bad deal you know you could pull the engine to trany or just leave the broken one in it does weigh something you'd be better taking it out but if you left it in and there's a battery in the back hey he says the hybrid version will go 60 Mi that's hybrid already got a motor in it so even if you left the motor in inic could still go 60 something miles pretty good idea if you ask me shade tree car says is there a push for car insurance to Total cars for very minor accidents I see him totaling with hardly any damage is this a push to force people to buy new cars or push EVS maybe that's true somewhat the main thing is the car insurance companies are responsible for damage they have to have it fixed correctly and if an electric car gets the battery dented they'll often total because the battery might cost as much as 20 grand in a Tesla and they don't want it to start on fire they're liable for any problems so if you've got a car especially an older car they will often total them because they don't want take responsibility let's say your car is an older car and it's worth four grand they'd rather just total it than to fix it and then find out they going to pay more and more and more and more and more and as cars get more and more complex they're going to be total easier even the windshield on a modern car it's got all kinds of sensors you get the big wreck the windshield and the airbags blow and the windshields crack that can total a car because to fix all those correctly can cost many thousands of dollars that's the main reason that they're totaling I'm sure a lot of companies would love to make you buy a new car or EV but more or less it's the insurance companies wanting to limit their possible losses and being sued by well you know they didn't fix that car correctly they should have total it so instead they just toal them F garby says is is there an alternative method of charging a Mazda 2024 plugin I live in a condo in Florida and I want to buy a plugin I can't plug it in can I get a portable battery charge it my condo bring it downstairs to charge the battery yes you can if you want but realize that battery would cost you a small fortune in order to charge a car battery that's plug in that's big they're very big batteries I have such a battery in my garage that you could charge up and you could move it outside that battery cost $6,500 I don't think you're going to go buy a $65 plus it weighs about 600 lbs and you logging it back in and out of your condo isn't going to be much fun the energy that's in a plugin hybrid is rather immense they're pretty heavy batteries if you can use a battery to charge that man You' need one big giant super expensive battery to do it with it's not really a logical thing I know people that live in condos and stuff they get a giant extension cord for plugging the charge it in their car that's what they do they get a long heavy do the extension cord and plug it in that way but if you want a battery that battery is going to cost you a fortune it's going to weigh a ton and you moving it back and forth is going to kill you they're heavy batteries and the plug-in hybrids now if it was just a regular hybrid they're much smaller batteries but a regular hybrid that isn't a plugin you can't charge it yourself you need a special machine like I have as a mechanic and some mechanics have that work on hybrid cars it cost an awful lot of money and you still got to plug that thing into the wall right and they work best when they're plugged into a 00 20 volt receptacle too realize that you got a big battery if you plug in at 110 it's going to take 40 50 hours to charge it up you need at least 220 so I'd say no don't even try it Mark lines 314 said I have a spark plug socket stuck in my spark plug tube on my engine I was attempt to change the spark plug my 2016 Ford Explorer but I realized I grabbed the wrong socket it's locked into the tube it spins but it won't go up or down I tried everything I don't want to break anything what can I do realize one thing all spark plug sockets have that square hole in them right so what you want to do is get something to try to grab the hole hopefully you've got a good spark plug socket if it's a real good spark plug socket it's got raised edges where that square is and you can get a long needing those players and you can stick the inside on the inside of the socket and the outside on the ridge on the outside and pull it out that's the first thing that you want to try now you wedged it in but it's the wrong side now if that doesn't work what you could do would be get yourself a long steel hook it's got a 90 degre angle right get it in there and then pull the 90° part at an angle so it's inside the square part of the socket and then pull on it and you'll be able to get it out cuz there's always that little Ridge inside too that if you don't have a tool like that you can you can just get a smaller Steel Rod you can heat it up with a btch and you could bend the end at 90° right you might have to grind it off till you get the perfect size so you can get it in the hole and then get it in an angle so it grabs a lip but you'll be able to pull it out that way what Max Scott I got a 2015 alantra there was a leak in the upper radiator hose I replaced it with the new one the car temperature now is high and the gauge will not go down if you mean that the temperature stays all the way to H and never goes down even when you first start it up the temperature sending unit was damaged and it's given a full reading and so it stays at H in that case probably broke the temperature gauge sending unit that screws in if it stays on H all the time but if on the other hand you mean you start it up and it starts at cold and then very soon when it warms up it goes to h and stays there then your car is actually overheating and if it is overheating and you had a leak before uh and you you said right here youl the cooling water thermostat and radiator kept last year sadly when you were losing coolant it may have blown the head gasket you undis are notorious for blowing head gaskets in that case watch my video how to tell if your head gasket is blown Scotty type that in YouTube watch the video you can get that test fluid and the test tube from Amazon for as little as 39 bucks when they're on sale when the engine's cold you take the radiator cap off stick the tube in pour the blue fluid to the little line and run it if that blue fluid turns yellow you blown your head gasket that's very typical for those things so if that's the case do that test to see if it is blown well exxon's 59. 5 billion deal to buy a giant Shale oil driller is showing you one thing that this green transition that they're all talking about is a long way in the future I CEO of a company that does investment options Capital Advisors said and I quote the fantasy world of having just Renewables of electricity within 50 years or so is now clearly not going to happen why do you think they're investing in it because they know everybody's using the oil and gas it's not going to disappear this absolute fantasy of green energy is exactly that it creates such a small amount of electricity and it costs so much money where's the money going to come from and we use more and more electricity as time goes on and these dinky little windmills and solar panels are not going to cut the mustard right a guy I just read said why are we messing with windmills we have nuclear plants right nucle nuar plants that work great modern technology but they're afraid of this stuff now and they're going back to the windmill days you know what is this the road warrior or something these people have in their mind now that ridiculous Ira the inflation reduction act that's only increased inflation is given out $27 billion in loans and grants to catalyze investment in Clean Energy Products and tackle the climate crisis well the government's given 27 billion in investment in green what a spit in a bucket pay does anybody realize what a spit in the bucket this is in material it's practically statistically insignificant and of course it's government money so you know most of it will just be wasted on crap that won't even work we all know that we've seen that in the past the government invests on something and almost always goes bust once the government subsidy goes it evaporates already all these offshore Wind Farm companies are saying we want to renegotiate our contracts the government needs to give us more money we need more money we need more money we're going to raise the rates of the electricity more we need the rights to charge more that's all I got to say and even at that it's a spit in the bucket so if you never want to miss another one of my new car repair videos remember to ring that Bell\n"
