Repent to Jesus Christ!
Are you a sinner?
Mark 2:17
King James Version
17 When Jesus heard it, he saith unto them, They that are whole have no need of the physician, but they that are sick: I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.
If, when you check your t. fluid, it is on the dipstick is bubbly or frothy, it is low. Yes?
Executed in such a simple and elegant way.
Great video with very good explanations about checking transmission fluid levels on different vehicles. I do NOT want to be within 10 Light Years of a car without a transmission or engine oil dipstick. Whoever came up with the idea of doing away with dipsticks in cars should be ashamed imo.
You have a nice voice like a radio
Thank you!!!
I have a ‘91 Chevy like yours and I just changed the trans filter. How much trans fluid do I need to put back in? I pulled out like 3-4 quarts of old fluid.
thank, you for you're video. my, question is I seen a 97, Dodge ram 2500 van for sale. I pulled the trans stick first and took notice that the trans fluid is on the full mark cold with out ever starting up the van. is something wrong here ?
Sir how can you check the transmission oil for a Lexus sc430 2005 running or not . Thank you
Thank you Eric. This video is very helpful. Thank you again. Have a great day.
Why does my my fluid go way over the hot line when engine is cold but just about around the hotline when engine is hot?
Thank you very much!!
Very thorough and well explained thanks!! You're a really good teacher.👍👍👍
I can't find my dipstick Chevy impl
Great advice, thanks Eric.
Just what the hell has become of VEHICLE'S ?…. other than MONEY MONEY MONEY ROBBING hunger SCAMMERS
I've got a 2000 Dodge Dakota 4.7, never sure how to check the tranny fluid. Been doing with the egine running.
I have researched a method to check my 05 Kia Sportage trans fluid and it the same way.. (idle in neural) now it’s reading very low 😢
Thanks the half quart information is good to know
