In this hang out we talked about hypoid gears, engines that burn oil, low oil pressure, how oil pressure works, automatic transmissions, electrical problems, oil levels, manual transmission service, compression testing, leak down testing, valve seals, burning oil, Honda code P1381, putting larger engines in and having cooling problems, and a few other things I can't think of at the moment.

If I didn't get to your question I apologize. Questions posted after the event ends will not be answered. Questions posted to the YouTube video will not be answered. Next show is August 27 7pm EST though.
