From www.autofixworld.com: Part One of a two-part video describes how onboard monitors test vehicle fuel containment systems for fuel vapor leaks. Three types are discussed: pressure test; vacuum test; and natural vacuum leak detection.
Joel Ort of Miller Electric Mfg. Co. shares his tips for MIG welding success. Placing the focus on MIG technique, Ort’s useful comments are applicable for many garage applications involving farm and automotive repairs. Topics include: simple setup, butt joints, T-joints, lap joints and horizontal, vertical and overhead welding positions. For more information on Miller’s line of MIG welders, visit: bit.ly

@pvtjamesryan3 i think one of your messages about me being a mehanic was for me…but you sent it to yourself..no i am not a certified mech..but a have been working on cars since 16…i know more about cars then most 1 to 2 year certified techs though..you are correct..the evap is total bullshit and has nothing to do with the way the car runs..just more of uncle sam telling you what to do..like i said..i just torn mine of..the canister…all the wiring..the soleinod..the light will just stay on
#2 by usmc2076 on December 27, 2011 - 11:15 pm
@pvtjamesryan3 i took mine of..the light stay’s on..but i does not affect the way the car runs

@pvtjamesryan3
There’s no way to edit messages.
You’re the first to tell me to remove it…..if possible…that would be awesome.
The entire Evap system is all bullshit. It’s nothing to do with the car running properly.
Let me know if you think its possible on my car and by the way are you a mechanic?

@usmc2076
I have a 2000 Toyota Celica
I don’t think I can do that on my car. It seems like the Evap system is almost necessary because it’s programmed into the computer.
I live in FL as well.

@pvtjamesryan3 i live in florida and there is no inspections down here…i took the entire evap system off my 98 altima…it’s faster now.

Brought to you by the same people who believe that man made global warming is destroying the planet. Mt. St. Helens eruption vs. .02 leak? It’s a control mechanism but NOT for your vehicle but for you. Pony up those dollars and support the EPA instead of feeding your family. (Informative video though)

@pvtjamesryan3 The more problems a vechicle has the more money a technician can make..maybe not a mechanic or a DIYer, Evap is complicated until you understand it….so learn it!!
#10 by pvtjamesryan3 on December 28, 2011 - 4:03 am
Interesting. It’s as I thought. This entire EVAP system is worthless. All it does is add more problems to the vehicle.
I wish the Government would stay the hell out of vehicle manufacturing.

my school just upgraded from a millermatic 130 to a 211, looks sweet

thanks for reply’s i needed to weld something but didnt want to leave all the weld on needed to be neat…new to this so may have been a stupid question but if ur dont know ,,ya dont know
#15 by kstinson on December 28, 2011 - 6:34 am
@ljwartuk I am not a professional welder but If your doing things like body work it is perfectly acceptable to grind. If you are building something meant to be structural in nature I would refrain from grinding and rather setup the joint so the welds do not interfere with any other parts of the structure.
#16 by TheBilgus on December 28, 2011 - 7:20 am
@ljwartuk Well ya….
#17 by TheBilgus on December 28, 2011 - 8:01 am
@ljwartuk well ya….
#18 by ljwartuk on December 28, 2011 - 8:48 am

Always wear pants.

off topic but what jind of tractor is that?
#21 by MangoHombre on December 28, 2011 - 9:15 am
Is that a Fairlane I see back there?
390? 427? Oh, yeah… nice welding.
#22 by Slayer66642 on December 28, 2011 - 9:19 am
This is MAG welding since your welding with an active gas that reacts in the weld.
(The co2 is split up in Carbon, which binds with the metal and Oxiden, which binds with several elements in the wire.)
Mig welding is for aluminum because it is weld with only pure argon (or helium)
which are Inert gasses who dont react with the weld.
Nice tricks btw

Thank you. I’m going to do a weekend project and this was the perfect tutorial to give me the basics.
#24 by bobbobmarley27 on December 28, 2011 - 10:07 am
love it
#25 by QQTrick1QQ on December 28, 2011 - 10:52 am
Nice bead but fail at 2:50 weld, totaly missed the joint.
Or is it only 1st pass?
#26 by glblb3030 on December 28, 2011 - 10:54 am
good tips
#27 by mitchtavio on December 28, 2011 - 11:41 am
You should also be filling in your craters at the end of your welds.
#28 by mrwiggles2 on December 28, 2011 - 11:44 am
Like the Ford in the background. Good welding job.
#29 by slick5066 on December 28, 2011 - 12:35 pm
Good video. I wouldn’t say to avoid welding overhead though. I know what you mean but how do you get good if you avoid it? Peace!
#30 by littlestworkshop on December 28, 2011 - 12:56 pm
That’s a really useful video thanks.
Just FYI, the sound seems to be mono only.
