Hearted Youtube comments on Rainman Ray's Repairs (@RainmanRaysRepairs) channel.

  1. I think you were pretty calm. I'm not mad at you.

  2. I was an aircraft electrician for 20 years just because the solenoid clicks doesn't mean it moves

  3. "Supposed to be a hurricane coming" says Ray as he ceaselessly continues to film for us

  4. “Nooooo RainmanRay, you’re doing it wrong!!” — guy who has never worked on a car

  5. Book states, "This job will take 7 hours to complete". Ray with an evil laugh, "Foolish book you have no power here".

  6. The one thing I've always learned from these videos Above All Else is that Ray has the patience of a saint!🙏🍻👍🧰👋

  7. You sorted out multiple issues in an easy to follow manner. I really enjoy the channel.

  9. Ima be honest, y’all be judging but for all you know he has 3 60s Chargers in pristine condition sitting in his garage.

  10. Ray, it amazes me how many work hours you must be making every week. You’re not just busy doing all the work on the vehicles, you are also putting an effort into making your video material pedagogical and fun to watch. Judging by the updates you must put in extreme hours of work in doing this. Just the way you communicate with us viewers whilst filming and also giving extra care and going the extra miles to create good camera angles makes you a unique auto content video producer. Thanks for doing this! My best regards from Sweden. 🇸🇪

  11. As one Floridian to another. I wish you the best Ray. Go be your best you.

  12. Hey Ray. I have to make a minor correction on a statement you made. At 11:20, approximately, you said that if the coolant reservoir were to leak, it would result in a lack of pressure building in the system, which would raise the boiling point. In fact, the opposite is true. Putting coolant/water under pressure raises the boiling point. Think about what happens when you remove the radiator cap on a hot engine. The coolant instantly flashes to steam. This is why an engine, although not desirable of course, can run at 230 degrees F under pressure and not boil and flash to steam.

  13. Ray is having a contagious affect on everyone...I'm pretty sure I heard Eric O the other day on a video make the Rainman yodel when his shop phone rang. Talk about life's legacy.

  14. It's rare to find a mechanic that ADMITS to a mistake, much lees gives credit to someone else that called him out on said mistake and provided a solution. Ray you're Da'man.

  15. Thanks for the stay away from trucks. It’s so annoying as a truck driver being cutoff to just take the ramp or something.

  16. Working brakes = good. Brake pedal detaching = bad Is this going to be on the test?

  17. i have to thank you for showing us the procedures going into diagnosing a fault, the garage i bought the car from couldnt fing a fault as they smoke tested and checked each component after replacing the turbo, eventually I traced the low turbo boost code to the wires connecting the MAP, someone had repaired the connector using a chocolate block connector, when i got through the tape over it I found 2 of the 3 wires were only occasionally making contact- all properly soldered and heatshrunk, and now the car is running as it should. so thanks- you helped me.

  18. High quality troll right there. Haters gonna hate, it's what they do. Like lots of other old school mechanics, I have built many engines with a beam style torque wrench. They are very accurate and effective, but hard to read the scale at some angles. I still have one, and it still gets used from time to time.

  19. Even when there are audio issues, I don't think your videos are ruined. They are still very entertaining And also a good learning experience.

  20. I'm looking forward to your differential portion of this series. One of my "specialties" when I worked at the GM dealer was Corvette differentials. I tried a few ways to remove them, I'm interested in your choice. Thanks for another interesting video. Watch out for those side pipes!

  21. That was a lawsuit waiting to happen. Could you imagine if the driver got into an accident because the previous shop failed to tighten all of those bolts?

  22. Not a demotion,its a reminder of your roots in the trade. Great content ! Really enjoy your stuff.

  23. ALWAYS load the loader backwards.. I move equipment daily for my job. Safe loading is back it onto the trailer.!!!!

  24. Copyright claims for background music is BS as far as I'm concerned. If you're playing the music outright, fine, but not for background that you're mostly making noise/talking over. Keep it up.

  25. I've resisted the urge to comment on the videos involving welding until now. The comments are out of hand on this one. Yes, I am a professional welder just to get that out of the way first. tl/dr version: this temporary fix was fine. Long version: -Keep in mind this is a temporary fix, he said so. -The amount of heat he put into the lbj was not enough to anneal the socket or the ball, just the outer bits where the splines are. Since it is being anchored by the weld at those points anyway, who cares. -If the grease had boiled, there very likely would have been evidence of this visible from the camera vantage point. -General safety bs: gimme a break, not even going into detail on that except to say the actual danger was incredibly minimal. -Weld quality was fine. Strong does not always equal pretty. Appearance was not an issue here anyway because a)he explained the situation to the owner, who is really the only one who matters, and b)who is going to see that aside from another technician. He nailed the joint and got enough penetration to get the job done for its intended purpose. This weld repair will very likely last longer than the lbj. -The only thing I personally would have done differently is position the welds in spots that would make it easier to cut them out if that became necessary, which is unlikely in this case. Nice work Ray, nothing wrong with what you did, in my opinion. Love your videos, love your work ethic. Keep 'em coming.

  26. Have to definitely work on the editing, but you're on your way
    80
  27. This is exactly how to do it in all industries. Good Job, Sir!

  28. You are a great mechanic, don't worry about all the people that think they are!

  29. Whenever I need to bring my car to a garage, I always empty it. Not trash. Just stuff I need and use. But it's completely empty when I bring it in.

  30. Vent windows were one of the best features of older vehicles. Never should have stopped equipping them.

  31. For a timesaver .. Get some small magnetic signs that say Rainman Rays you can put over license plates or logos on or under car such as the pan logo. Saves you a lot of editing time. Or just use 2" wide masking tape.

  32. Was that the 10mm wrench I have read about? I saw one once, but never again. The 10mm is an elusive beast.

  33. back before Advance switched to DieHard, autocraft was sold to walk in customers, and for commercial customers the autocraft labels were removed so the shops would install the "professional" line. it's not a rebrand, just a DIY vs Pro thing

  34. Best of luck with whatever job you get next sir. If a place wont let you be you, then there are plenty of other places that will. Stay cool man. That whole project woulda had me in the corner rocking back n forth lol

  35. I bought a Mini Cooper that was heading to the scrap yard if I didn’t buy it. 2 months later and a few bucks it drives almost like a new car. Project cars are fun if you get them cheap enough.

  36. Sorry Ray, had to laugh when you said, "I'm getting old". I think you've mention you've been at this profession for 18 years.... I've been retired almost that many years! (my youngest is 35)😲👴 Keep learning Ray... it only makes you BETTER and in my view, you are high on the scale.👍 Ray, it is through watching your videos that I removed my first wheel hub off of a vehicle (torque wrench fail and the first stud went snap instead of "click" 😡). New stud pressed in and reassembled thanks to you... oh, and a new torque wrench. This was only on my quad, but YOU are the encouragement this old guy needed, Thanks.

  37. All I keep thinking is how lucky we are to live in FL where there is No road salt and winter.. this vid would have been twice as long and F bomb ridden if this car was from up north! LMAO!! 😁

  38. Dam I was going to comment that maybe he should have it checked out for leaks before throwing money at it but you addressed that. Best of Luck with the guy.
    77
  39. Hey Ray I know you will not see this comment but you are my Mr. Rogers of the car world and I find you very entertaining. Even just you waving your hands and narrating is entertaining. 😆 have yourself a good day.

  40. The transmission said, " Don't move. I'll go get you a towel."

  41. Congrats on the celebration of your marriage. Appreciate you guys!

  42. Hi Justin. My deepest condolances to you for the loss of your beloved camshaft bearings. They will be missed.
    77
  43. Great idea Ray, looking forward to seeing what crawls out of the engine.....
    77
  44. I hope everyone involved escaped that situation save and unharmed. What a sight...

  45. He might be doing 100 mph trying to get into heaven in his mustang but he'll only be doing 22 mph in the hearse on the journey to the cemetery.... Take care, regards Andy

  46. They're all busy running their YouTube channels.

  47. The horn works great to tell the bad drivers to stay in their lane when they do the bad driving. Thanks Ray!

  48. Knocking on the door of half a milion subscribers, happier Ray with WU support and more family interaction, great inspirational posts on saving some important historic vehicles (particularly that lovely old girl 95 4.0 Wrangler). Living your very best life Sir and absolutely deserved.

  49. As hard as Ray said it was to plug in, maybe whoever just got it started and it popped out on the first bump. Nice job Ray!

  50. I am so sorry for making so much noise Ray, tearing out the tile. We got er did. Can’t wait to see the final look with the new garage doors and stuff.
