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

  1. I love how the baby is just singing in the background. Not a care in the world lol

  2. Man, so many people have their cars filled with trash. I couldn't drive in a car like that.
    264
  3. Does this mean that part 2 will be on Judge Judy?
    264
  4. I'm glad you show all the challenges along the way instead of just jump cutting through them. That wat makes you videos so great!
    263
  5. Trolls: Ray doesn't care about customers cars Ray: I do these 17 other steps to ensure the customer doesn't have issues in the near future, most other mechanics thinks it's stupid but I still do it

  6. Good morning Ray. I’m sure you were aware that I couldn’t wait for you to post this video. Sorry that back cover is a pain but I knew you were the right person for the job. Can’t wait to see Part 2. Always so amazed at your work. Thank you again for doing such a great job on my GF Lexus. Actually shipping it today to her in Chicago. I’ll see you soon with my Truck! Have a great day!

  7. Owner states: “Change out the perfectly good functional brake pads I like then changed every six months”. Garage service manager: I see you have 50,000 miles do you want an oil change?” Car’s owner: “What’s that?”

  8. It just make my little heart smile seeing all the rust <3

  9. Ray, I know several people in the area and shared the link to your video with them. I highly doubt someone this dumb is connected to anyone associated with Cleetus and the boys at Freedom Factory or the guys over at the drag strip. Not much I can do from across the US beside that. Just glad everyone is safe and able to make it home tonight. You stay safe out there Ray.

  10. 99 days overdue and the lady is angry because you took 45 minutes? She needs to have more respect

  11. CS : Vehicle Shakes when applying brakes while driving normally. Recommended Repair : Replace Rotors/Drums as confirmed experience with shaking while driving and applying brakes. Also visual inspection suggests brake surface wear. PS Repair : Lugnuts stripped AF. CS : "I just paid $1200 for new brakes all the way around. I meant the brakes apply themselves. Not that it shakes. Just change the damn oil." Repair : Slap it with an oil change because the customer doesn't believe what was found. Boy do I miss managing a shop. Such magical experiences.

  12. The cost of the parts cleaner was more than the cars worth
    256
  13. Will Ray get covered in oil? Will gravity be stronger than usual? Will he go “doo dee doo” crazy? The answer to this question and many more in today’s episode of Rainman Ray…

  14. looks like you are ready to start you new venture, congrats,getting organized is half of the battle; i cannot wait to see new content in a different place!
    255
  15. My guess is a bit of both. The other shop knew what doing that would cause, so they fudged the fix and hoped they could milk some more out of the customer
    254
  16. Just because the Gopro 9 was new doesn't mean its any good 🤣. Good video 👍
    254
  17. Have to give the truck a name
    253
  18. Let's hope your boss is ok with you being late for work 😉
    252
  19. Thank you Ray for disassembling the Compressor - interesting to see the innards and how they work.
    252
  20. The REEEEEEE is hilarious. Soooo many experts. I love the backhanded comment about chroming the diff cover bolts, made me chuckle. Don’t let the talking heads change you Ray. Keep on hosing out engine compartments, welding ball joints, and using an air chisel for anything possible.

  21. This has an intermittent mechanically sticking purge valve, almost for sure. If the purge valve sticks open it will run rich, causing your negative fuel trim you saw in freeze frame. These purge valves fail like this all the time. I've replaced half a dozen in the last year for this very same issue. Driving it for a couple weeks with this condition may even set a "purge during non purge" code which would confirm, as well. Watching the video from last time you had difficult getting the vent valve to open when it was closed. I also commented on that last video that these vent valves will not always open when you have pressure in the system from the smoke machine and that old vent valve was likely just fine. If the gas cap was the issue you would have most definitely had smoke from around the gas cap with the smoke machine. So, unless there is smoke coming from the top of the tank around the fuel pump area the only other option for a leak is the purge...again explaining your negative fuel trim in freeze frame data. Use the purge and seal option in the scan tool to open the purge valve with the engine running and watch vacuum on the tank. I've seen them not start to purge under 10 or 20% but start to purge at 30-40%, indicating the valve sticking. Another test I do is to use the vent valve open/close option with the engine running to close the vent valve and watch to see if any vacuum is being drawn on the tank through the purge valve when not commanded on.

  22. I am a heavy truck mechanic at a fleet shop, so I work on stuff all day long. You would think that watching someone work on cars is the last thing that I’d want to do, but your vlogs are really good, and interesting. Congrats Ray, you got yourself another subscriber

  23. You ever notice customers fuel tanks are mostly empty EXCEPT when you have to replace the fuel pump. Then they are filled to the brim.
    249
  24. I benefited a lot from your film about dropping a fuel tank, Sir. I was able to complete that procedure on a small passenger car with not much difficulties using a scissor jack for motorcycle. Thank you! I regret you lost your job, and hope the shop will change that decision, you are so great mechanic, and nothing wrong about the recording, your work is always so professional and great. I'm sorry, it was because of us. 🌍❤🌠

  25. Hello Ray, A funny story. My wife and myself were in the local hardware store the other day. A clerk managed to drop a handful of tools to the concrete floor, which made quite a clatter. My wife and I looked at each other and at the same time yelled "GRAVITY!". The clerk just gave us a strange look.
    247
  26. I'm looking forward to this next chapter of Ray! Congrats! But promise to get the same phone system, don't deprive us of our daily "doodle-doodle-ooo"
    246
  27. This scam has been growing across all high traffic channels. On one hand you should feel honored. Maybe in your videos you can bust on them and quickly explain for the new followers.
    245
  28. This morning, my wife emptied a can of hair spray and threw it into the living room. She was so proud of herself 🙂
    244
  29. Ray is concerned about flipping us off, then proceeds to give us the double-bird at 27:54 😂 Love your content, Ray. Instant Sub. 👏

  30. the second you ask if the new mic is good ----> it stopped working
    239
  31. Woooooo yeah buddy! This was just a stroke of luck. That phone call was the best of the week. Auction cars are always a huge gamble but for what I paid I knew it would part out well. Intuition and experience told me there was more to the story, and wasn’t a flood. Instead, we’re still scratching our heads! When a big storm hits, there’s never enough adjusters to physically look at every vehicle to confirm damage and often flood vehicles don’t have a visual indicator right away like mold. So the insurance companies look at the area the vehicle was located and similar claims and will write it off, set up towing and cut a check without ever seeing the vehicle in person. Thanks buddy!

  32. Wish my mechanic filmed the repairs! Informative and I know it gets done right. Ray, I wish all mechanics were like you, honest and skilled. Keep em coming!

  33. Ray wins the YouTuber award for craziest coverage of Hurricane Ian! Stay safe man!! and hope the chickens survive.

  34. Brillant development. You're officially our "Eric O" in Alligator land. I totally get where you're coming from on the city front. You wait until you get even older! Your own space becomes more precious. Since turning 50, my diary now just has one page...With a big NO! written on it.

  35. That Charger really does need a second PROPER restoration. Sad to see such a beautiful car in such bad condition.
    236
  36. Problem is it costs your time(money) to wait on other parts while you could be finishing the customers vehicle.
    235
  37. Quite honestly if you didn’t have haters you probably are doing it wrong.
    235
  38. Thank you Ray for the excellent job on repairing my steering rack and my steam pipe on my Pontiac! Totally loved watching the video seeing my car being fixed by you personally! What an awesome experience! Thank you thank you thank you!!!

  39. It's only 238.855.00 miles to the moon from here. That little Ford is doing pretty well. looks like the owner takes good care and does the required maintenance. I remember when I was a kid working at the gas station/garage. The customer states "I hear a knocking noise" when his old 67 ford ranchero with a 289 would shift from 1st to second. yes, it was an automatic. A regular customer and a nice guy. He asked me to take it out for a drive and see if you can hear what I'm talking about. Sure thing, I hop in, turn out on the highway. I wind up 1st gear kind of heavily. he did say step on it a little. So I did. I heard the noise X10, knock, knock, BANG! Check the rearview to see a cloud of smoke and debris sliding down the road right behind me. The engine has locked up. I walked back to the shop 600' away. I found a piece of what looked like a rod cap in the road. We towed it in. put it on the rack. The underside is completely covered in oil. It was then I noticed where the oil was coming from. The lower driver's side of the engine block had a massive hole in it. yep, it threw a rod. He was a good sport about it. He said he was glad we found the bad part, that he didn't want his wife to break down on the highway. He had us install a replacement short block. He didn't balk at the cost of repairs. Just a good old dude. It was a learning experience for me. Cheers from Louisiana.

  40. If I've learned anything from this video it's to look up service information on any car I'm not familiar with. That's just insane. Hope the poor guy doesn't beat himself up over it
    233
  41. Sorry to hear about your death Ray 😢 Gonna miss you man and condolences to your wife and family 🙏🏼
    232
  42. Just remember Ray the vast majority are with you and wife unit. Once again. The sun in Australia has gone and so have I. Will watch with a coffee in the morning.
    231
  43. Just watched this one after the one where you extracted yourself from that dealership job before and the difference in your personality is stark. You sound so much happier in this job then you did in the previous one and that’s making your content so much better. Good on you.
    231
  44. Started watching when you was working at the dealership. Always enjoyed the videos.
    230
  45. Glad to hear you guys made it! Hearing the little one singing in the background is a testament to your parenting.... they're calm and happy despite the crazyness around them!
    230
  46. I went back to see some of Ray’s earlier videos, before he went self employed, Ray seems to be much happier now than before despite having more responsibilities. Ray has landed on his feet with owning his own business.

  48. Glad to see you're safe... and that some of the chickens made it so far. Stay safe!!

  49. When you edit out your feelings, we lose part of who you are. Ray, don’t do that. Your personality is what makes your channel so much fun to watch.
    227
  50. Absolutely obsessed with this channel. As a mechanic myself we are always learning, and you sir have taught me plenty.
