A small thing can change everything... especially if it's a bad part, like an oil pump pickup. Glad we caught it before the new engine was destroyed!

  • I think you found beard lint from the two fuzzy bearded boys! 😂
  • @hillwilliam
    It takes a week to wipe the smile off Chad’s face after mashing the go petal on Gonzo. Great family and content.
  • @ktmcc4360
    Great video. I like the straight Chad work, dealing with the issues calmly and professionally. None of the usual distractions. I like this format! Sometimes there is too much goofy stuff going on.
  • Watching Chad diagnosing the problem was fascinating. It highlights his expertise, and knowledge. And his attitude is always a blessing. Thanks for taking us on this repair.
  • @DonAshcraft
    Chad testing the truck in the beginning, hits the throttle, and the truck accelerates magnificently, like a rocket. Then he checks all his mirrors over and over again to make sure there are no flashing lights behind him. Lol😅
  • @GP54
    THANK YOU CHAD! I'm working on a project that is using one of those pans and pickups! Engine is bolted in with oil pan for mock up and i hadn't installed the pick up yet. When watching i pulled my pick up out of the box and sure enough it built the same. definitely will be fixing that! Thank you for saving my engine!!

    Nothing beats seeing Papa Chad smile when he is on the go pedal.

    Good morning from sunny Florida❤. I love when every single guy on the inner circle has motor problem. "We better call Chad" ❤
  • @wm7683
    Son love giving dad his trailing arm 🤙
  • Always a good morning when Chad shows up on my Youtube. Remember - if you're not part of the solution, you're part of the precipitate!
  • @catfish573
    Just wanted to say, I have been watching now for a couple of years. I enjoy watching you and the crew very much. Thank you and God bless you and the bunch.
  • True fact my friend too many times folks forget to be done with yesterday and mess up many tomorrows. Hence it's why the windshield is always bigger than the rearview. Look ahead more and leave the past in the rearview. Seek a new tomorrow.
  • Love your Channel been watching for years please don't ever stop the quotes at the end of the show those little quips are priceless
  • Oh WOW. I'm not a fan of lowered classics, but Gonzo looks right and tight sitting like that! Delicious!
  • Just wanted to say thanks for sharing your spirit for life and your wealth of knowledge, the world needs a LOT MORE CHAD AND FAMILY! 👍🏼👍🏼
  • Growing up on a farm, my dad always used Farm Bureau oil. On my Ford van, I switched to the FB oil. My oil pressure gage fluctuated all over the place. I went back to my normal brand, and no more oil pressure issues.
  • I've used old license plates to patch holes in the floor of several of my old vehicles. I've pounded a couple into parts trays w magnets glued to them. Of course I have some wall art models too! Never thought of using them for welding shields! Used 1 for a spreader in a gravel screener too! And more than a few for corner brackets on wooden dry boxes in my trucks. Great vid!
