Supply Chain Disruptions from the Pandemic ETCG1 2021-03-01 | The year is 2021 and lately I’ve been experiencing some fallout from the Coronavirus pandemic in the form of supply chain disruptions. Mainly, I can’t seem to find Michelin tires anywhere, well, ’new’ Michelin tires. I’ve also experienced delays in the shipping of some of the other parts I’ve ordered recently. Have you experienced issues with getting parts over the past year? If so, what parts did you have trouble with?#ETCG1Video #COVID19I’m not accepting donations for Fixing it Forward at this time.

The Shop Move, Checking In ETCG1 2022-03-25 | A lot of stuff has left the shop, but there is still a little more to go before I leave at the end of the month. My move out date is March 31, 2022.

How I Lost the New Shop ETCG1 2022-03-02 | In this video I detail the circumstances under which I have lost my prospects for a new shop location. To be honest I’m somewhat relieved that the issue has been resolved, even though things didn’t work out the way I had originally planned. That’s the way life works sometimes. Who am I kidding, that’s pretty much how life works all the time. I’ll be fine. I’ll figure this out. It’s just another bump in the road.

Working on “Other” Brands ETCG1 2022-01-24 | I’ve been a professional technician for more than 25 years, mostly working on Hondas and Acuras. I’m very familiar with the Honda brand as a result.

It Doesn’t Matter What You Drive ETCG1 2021-11-01 | I recently attended the Fall 2021 Import Alliance show in Atlanta GA with my youngest son. Given the choice of vehicles to drive in my fleet, my son choose his 2005 Honda Civic. I think that was an awesome decision, and this video explains why. In my view, it doesn’t matter what you’re driving as long as you love it.

California’s New Motor Law ETCG1 2021-10-25 | California’s AB-1346 reads as follows, “By July 1, 2022, the state board shall, consistent with federal law, adopt cost-effective and technologically feasible regulations to prohibit engine exhaust and evaporative emissions from new small off-road engines, as defined by the state board. Those regulations shall apply to engines produced on or after January 1, 2024, or as soon as the state board determines is feasible, whichever is later.”By July 1, 2022 California means to move away from small gas powered engines, mainly in the landscaping industry. Personally, I wonder if this is a prelude to things to come in the automotive industry. I suppose time will tell, but it seems the “motor law” is becoming a reality. What do you think about California’s new law? Do you think it will help air quality? Do you think it’s an indication of what is to come for the internal combustion engine?

Right to Repair ETCG1 2021-10-11 | For the past few years some companies have made it so their products cannot be repaired by anyone outside of that company. This makes it difficult, if not impossible, to repair some products that were legally purchased by their owners. The Right To Repair movement is pushback against this practice which effects many industries and products in our daily lives.

3 Ways To Prevent Catalytic Converter Theft ETCG1 2021-09-27 | 2 of these suggestions have a proven track record for helping to prevent catalytic converter theft. The 3rd suggestion is my own, and one I plan to employ on my 2003 Honda Pilot to prevent the catalytic converter from being stolen. I hope it works.FYI if you have full coverage insurance on your vehicle and your catalytic converter is stolen, you may be able to file a claim for the repair. Check with your insurance company to find out if that’s the case. I hope you find this video helpful.

No One Cares as Much as You Do ETCG1 2021-09-20 | I loved my first car, and just about every vehicle I’ve owned after that. However, not everyone has felt the same way about my vehicle choices, including some of the people that worked on them before I became a mechanic. My point in this video is to illustrate that no one will care as much as you when it comes to the care and maintenance of your vehicles. You see them with different eyes than the rest of the world does and that’s OK. It doesn’t mean that those people working on your vehicle aren’t going to do a good job, it just means that they likely won’t go about it in the same way you would. I hope the video makes all of this more clear.

I Hate SUV’s ETCG1 2021-08-09 | Hate may be a strong word, but I really do have a strong dislike for SUV’s, not just from a service standpoint, but also from a practical one. Therefore, I decided to buy one. In this video I share those feelings as well as give a first look at my new SUV, a 2003 Honda Pilot.

Does a Shift Knob Make Your Car Faster? ETCG1 2021-07-26 | I was recently sent some new ‘fancy’ shift knobs for my vehicles. After installing them, I felt that the vehicles I put them in were more fun to drive. The vehicles weren’t any faster, they didn’t handle any better, yet I enjoyed my driving experience more. All because of a shift knob. Probably the most economical upgrade ever. At least that’s how I felt. What do you think?

The Greater the Challenge, the Sweeter the Victory ETCG1 2021-07-19 | I recently had to deal with a challenging diagnosis and repair of a check engine light on a 2005 Honda Odyssey. At times it was frustrating, but eventually I overcame it and the van is now fixed and driving again.

Are You a Parts Snob? ETCG1 2021-04-26 | When I repair vehicles I often replace parts. My repairs are often only as good as the parts I’m installing. Install a bad part, it can come back, and it’s a bad repair. Install a good part, and hopefully I don’t have to see that vehicle again for the same issue. Over the years I’ve found parts that work and parts that don’t. In this video I explore that topic along with my recommendations for Honda parts for your repair jobs.

Where Do Stolen Catalytic Converters Go? ETCG1 2021-04-05 | After the catalytic converter was stolen from my 2005 Honda Element, I decided to so some research on where these stolen catalytic converters end up. I learned some interesting things. In addition to discussing where catalytic converters go after they are stolen, I also talk about why catalytic converters are being stolen in the first place. You might be surprised about how much they’re really worth.

The End of an Era? The Second Golden Age of Hot Rods ETCG1 2021-03-08 | Given the recent announcements by GM, Ford, and other auto manufacturers intentions to switch to an all electric vehicle fleet, it got me thinking. Is this the end of, what I call, “the second golden age of hot rodding”? I think it’s a fair question given the circumstances. I realize that internal combustion engines will be on the road for some time to come, but the powers that be, seem to want to change that in a big way, and in a hurry. How far will they go is my question? For now, I plan to drive the wheels off of my ‘babies’ until I can’t do it anymore. I hope that’s because of my ailing health in old age, and not because of the ‘motor law’.

ETCG1 2021-02-22 | Given the recent announcements from companies like GM, Ford, and other major vehicle manufacturers, stating that they are going to discontinue production of vehicles with internal combustion engines by the year 2035, we may very well be looking at the end of the internal combustion engine. I don’t believe this is something that will happen overnight, but by the year 2100, we may very well be all electric when it comes to personal transportation. What are your thoughts on this change? What concerns do you have about electric vehicles? Are you ready to give up your internal combustion engine for electric?I look forward to your responses in the comments. #ETCG1VideoMy Patreon Account: patreon.com/EricTheCarGuyThanks for watching!The best place for answers to your automotive questions: http://www.ericthecarguy.comEricTheCarGuy FAQ Page: ericthecarguy.com/faqCheck out the ETCG Blog for the latest info: ericthecarguy.com/blogLinksGM Phase out of ICE: forbes.com/wheels/news/gm-phase-out-gas-diesel-cars-2035Ford all Electric in Europe by 2030: nbcnews.com/business/autos/ford-go-all-electric-europe-2030-emissions-mandates-tighten-n1258112Volvo all Electric By 2025: motortrend.com/news/electric-volvos-what-to-expect-from-now-to-2025Diesel Plant in France Conversion: finance.yahoo.com/news/death-diesel-looms-carmakers-accelerate-135331059.htmlReaper Trailer Fire: dragzine.com/news/reaper-down-james-goad-loses-racing-operation-in-trailer-fireRace Trailer Safety: dragzine.com/tech-stories/trailer-safety-how-to-protect-your-racing-operation-from-fireMy Snowbloweregopowerplus.com/snow-blowerRelated VideosIs Diesel Dead?: youtu.be/ADVPlp2ECzcWill Electric Vehicles Put Your Mechanic Out of Business?: youtube.com/watch?v=8z2Euhw_gAo&t=24sThe Pros and Cons of Electric Vehicles: youtube.com/watch?v=1B0vEHpDQxY&t=27sAn Appeal to Greta Thunberg From an Automotive Enthusiast: youtube.com/watch?v=W4u9-Yx8ZPU&t=2sWhat Do You Think of the Cybertruck?: youtube.com/watch?v=NqvH8iWVESsThe Environment and You: youtube.com/watch?v=E8RsXvobaA0&t=1sRush Red Barchetta: youtube.com/watch?v=FAvQSkK8Z8U**Answers to your automotive questions found here: http://www.ericthecarguy.com/faqSocial Network LinksFacebook: facebook.com/EricTheCarGuy?fref=tsTwitter: twitter.com/EricTheCarGuyInstagram: http://instagram.com/ericthecarguyWanna see more stuff like this from ETCG?
