I welcome members to the 14th meeting in 2015 of the Delegated Powers and Law Reform Committee. As always, I ask members to switch off mobile phones, please. Gender item 1 is a decision on taking business in private. It's proposed that the committee takes agenda item 6 in private. This is consideration of a draft report on the delegated powers provisions contained in the carers Scotland bill at stage 1. I'll be agreed to take item 6 in private, please. Gender item 2, instrument subject to affirmative procedure. No points have been raised by our legal advisers on the enhanced enforcement areas scheme Scotland regulations 2015 at draft, nor on the Equality Act 2010, specific duties Scotland amendment regulations 2015 at draft, is the committee content of these instruments. Gender item 3, instrument subject to negative procedure. The Firefighters Pension Schemes amendment Scotland regulations 2015, SSI 2015, 141. Regulation 22D, in inserting new paragraph 38 in part 3C of schedule 2 to the Firefighters Pension Schemes Scotland regulations 2015, appears to be defectively drafted. Paragraph 38, 2B determines the date on which a member is taken to join the new pension scheme where they decide not to appeal against refusal of an ill health award under the Firefighters Pension Scheme 1992, as set out in schedule 2 to the Firefighters Pension Scheme Order 1992. It does so with reference to the expiry of 28 days from the date on which the member received the last of the documents, which the authorities required to supply under rule H24 of the 1992 scheme. Rule H24 of the 1992 scheme, as it applies in Scotland, does not require the fire authority to provide any documents, although the equivalent rule in England and Wales does require the relevant authority to do so. The absence of a requirement under the Scottish rules to supply documents, the provision does not give effect to the apparent policy of establishing the alternative of two dates on which a member is taken to join the new scheme in circumstances where the member decides not to appeal against refusal of an ill health award under the 1992 scheme. In 26 I2, which amends rule 9 of the new Firefighters Pension Scheme, Scotland, is set out in schedule 1 to the Firefighters Pension Scheme Order 2007, the NFPS, hereafter, regarding commutation of pensions, also appears to be defectively drafted. Provision inserts new paragraph 1A in rule 9, as acknowledged by the Scottish Government, the wording of the text to be inserted in new paragraph 1A does not make sense. The meaning of the provision is accordingly unclear and it does not deliver the intended policy objective. Regulation 34B, so far as it inserts new rule B1A3B in the 1992 scheme, again appears to be defectively drafted. As acknowledged by the Scottish Government, the wording of the text to be inserted as new rule B1A3B does not make sense. The meaning of the provision is accordingly unclear and does not deliver the intended policy objective. Does the committee therefore agree to draw the instrument of the attention of the Parliament under reporting ground I as it appears to be defectively drafted? I am distressed, I think, as probably as good a word as any at the inadequate quality of the drafting of this particular instrument. I am distressed particularly in that I understand informally that the problems described thus far, and I think that you are going to speak of others, are in some senses patent. In other words, senses do not make sense, so it is not something requiring enormous legal skills to spot that sort of error. In relation to the cross-references, I understand again that this is a comparatively, albeit legally trained and experienced, skill to establish that these cross-references do not work. We are not talking necessarily here about great legal principles being difficult here and requiring to be engaged in detecting that there are errors in what is a very important piece of legislation for people who are getting pensions. I absolutely acknowledge that the timescale over which this has had to be dealt with has been set by others and has presented significant challenges, but it demonstrates to the committee and to the Parliament in its form here. With the substantial amount that we are going to be saying about it, the drafting and checking processes that the Scottish Government is adopting in relation to this are wholly inadequate for purpose. Whatever else we say, and we have to agree with the proposition that you are putting to us—I am going to do that—we should nonetheless think very carefully, as a committee, about what we want to say to the Government overall on this particular instrument and its approach to dealing with it, because it has not been at all satisfactory. Thank you for those comments, John. I do have quite a lot of detail to go through, and I think that it would be good to get through that if I may. Maybe we could have a general discussion at the end of that, as to how we handle that. Are you comfortable with that? Yes. Thank you. That would be helpful. Furthermore, as members have indicated, the meaning of regulation 7, which amends regulation 59.2 of the principle regulations, is lacking in clarity. The amendment does not indicate whether or not the sum referred to in new regulation 59.2 BA is to be included in the calculation referred to in regulation 59.2. The intended effect of the new subparagraph BA is accordingly unclear. The meaning of regulation 38A1, which inserts new subparagraph AB in rule F21 of the 1992 scheme, is also lacking in clarity. The word OR is included at the end of the new paragraph AB instead of the intended word AND. The use of the word OR rather than AND indicates that the period of service mentioned in new subparagraph AB is to be regarded as an alternative to one or more of the periods of service mentioned in subparagraph ABs OR and C of paragraph 1. However, the apparent policy intention is that each period of service mentioned in the existing paragraph 1, including the period of new subparagraph AB, is to be calculated cumulatively. Does the committee therefore agree to draw the instruments of the attention of the Parliament under reporting ground H as the meaning of regulations 7 and 38A1 could be clearer? There are also three matters that the committee may wish to report under the general reporting ground. Firstly, regulation 9 amends regulation 65 of the principle regulations by substituting paragraph 3. Substituted subparagraph 3A refers to entitlements to payment of a lower-tier ill-health pension under rule 22 of the NFPS. There are several rules, number 22, in various parts of the NFPS, at least two of which refer to entitlements to lower-tier ill-health pension. The omission of the words OF PART 3 after rule 22 is a drafting error. Secondly, regulation 22D inserts paragraphs 26 and 28 in new part 3B of schedule 2 to the principle regulations. Paragraph 263 refers to a bereavement pension payable to a spouse or civil partner under rule E8 of the 1992 scheme. Paragraph 282 refers to a bereavement pension payable to an eligible child under rule E8A of the 1992 scheme. Those references have been included in error. Rule E8 of the 1999-92 scheme, as it has effect in Scotland, does not make provision for bereavement pensions, while rule E8A has no effect in Scotland at all. Provision have effect in England and Wales only. The references to bereavement pensions in paragraphs 263 and 282 of the principle regulations are accordingly unnecessary. Thirdly, and finally, the instrument contains a number of minor drafting errors that have been identified by the committee's legal advisers. In paragraphs 6 to 8 of rule 1 of part 11 of the NFPS, as inserted by regulation 28A2 of the instrument, the references to paragraph 33 of schedule 2 to the 2015 regulations should be references to paragraph 32 of that schedule. In the new paragraph 2AB of rule 2 of part 11 of the NFPS, as inserted by regulation 28B2 of the instrument, the reference to paragraph 33A4 of schedule 2 to the 2015 regulations should be a reference to paragraph 32A4 of that schedule. In rule B1A3A of the 1992 scheme, as inserted by regulation 34B of the instrument, the reference to paragraph 1A of rule B1 should be to paragraph 1B of rule B1. In new rule B2A of the 1992 scheme, as inserted by regulation 34D of the instrument, the reference to regulation 654A of the 2015 regulations should be to regulation 653B of those regulations. The reference to rule B1A31 of the 1992 scheme should be to rule B1A3A of that scheme. In new paragraph 1A of rule B5D of the 1992 scheme, as inserted by regulation 34H2 of the instrument, the reference to paragraph 31 of rule B1A should be to paragraph 3A of rule B1A. Finally, in new paragraphs 9, 10, 12 of rule G1 of the 1992 scheme, as inserted by regulation 39A2 of the instrument, the reference to paragraph 34 of schedule 2 to the 2015 regulations should be references to paragraph 33 of that schedule. Does the committee therefore agree to draw the instrument to the attention of the Parliament under the general reporting ground on account of drafting errors in regulations 922D and the minor drafting errors identified by the legal advisers? It gives me the opportunity to say thank you to our legal advisers for spotting all that. Just reading it out tells you something for John. Thank you, convener. I support Stuart Stevenson's remarks in their entirety. From all that we have heard, to be frank, it is almost insulting to us as a committee that this piece of work will be presented to Parliament in this way. Of course, we recognise the difficulties in terms of timings, but it appears that not even the most minimal effort has been made to check the policy intentions or, indeed, any of the detail that even a cursory examination would have revealed to be problematic. It feels to me as if this committee is being forced to do the work that should reasonably be carried out by the Scottish Government. I think that that is not acceptable that parliamentary resource should be being used in this way to carry out the work of the Government. We have to consider our options here.  There are possibly several, but one of them would be to invite the Deputy First Minister, John Swinney, who I believe is ultimate responsibility for this piece of legislation to appear before the committee. Others may wish to have a view on that, of course, but this is one of the worst examples that we have seen in a very long time. I wonder whether I could just deal with the other issues that are on my brief here. The Scottish Government's response to questions on the instruments from our legal advisers, which happens in the normal way, states that they will deal with identified errors by way of an amending instrument with retrospective effect as from 1 April 2015. The committee may, however, consider that it is unclear from the response which of the points raised by our legal advisers are actually accepted by the Scottish Government as identified errors, and therefore invite the committee to agree to a Scottish Government to amend all the errors reported by the committee under reporting grounds IH and the general reporting ground with respect to retrospective effect as from 1 April 2015. A few other thoughts, which we might notice issues arising from the Scottish Government's response. Firstly, there are various references in the response to the fact that the same errors appear in the equivalent regulations applying to England and Wales. Secondly, the Scottish Government is unable to confirm the meaning of various provisions in the Scottish regulations and refers to the relevant UK department on the issue. Thirdly, in some cases, the Scottish regulations simply copy over amendments relating to provisions that have effect in England and Wales and not as Scotland has previously discussed. I think that all of that indicates that we are looking at regulations that did come from Westminster, which has ultimate responsibility for this and which simply needed to be transposed into Scots law. Are there any other comments that members make as to how we might proceed? I think that the bottom line is that greater care is required, particularly in complex areas. I think that this is a pretty complex provision that has to be brought forward here. What we need to hear from the Government is what additional steps it is putting in to minimise the errors that are being picked up by the committee. We are the last possible safety net in this whole process before the courts. The fact that we pick up such manifest errors, such large numbers of errors, as could be relatively straightforwardly checked in terms of cross referencing, is something to which the Government needs to turn its mind as to how it is going to stop this. The Government might come along and say that this is the last of such instruments, because we have had a whole series of such instruments. If so, that will give them the time to put in processes that they have to engage with next time. They are not going to find themselves in the same difficulties. Of course, we would wish to support the Government absolutely in making sure that there is greater amount of time for the Government to do such processes as it requires. However, at the end of the day, they have to do it right however little time there may be in which to do it. That means that they have to look to the processes in where the committee should write to them and make that point most robustly and reserve the right, if we are not satisfied with the response thereafter, to consider what further actions we might take, including, as John Scott referred to, perhaps having the responsible member of the Government appear before us to explain what they are seeking to do. However, in the first instance, we should certainly look to write and ask for that explanation as to how they are going to step up the quality of their processes to improve the quality of what we get. There is a failure of process here. We are not seeking to really cast aspersions or blame. We are only wanting the process to work and for a Parliament to be presented with instruments that have reasonably been considered by the Government before they reach us, notwithstanding all the difficulties that the Government has to overcome in that regard. Nonetheless, that is not a problem for us, that is a problem for the Government. Like Stuart Stevenson, I would like to hear how that is going to be addressed in the future. What I would like to suggest is that we start by writing. I think that what needs to be said is already on the record. I do not think that I need to add to that. I suppose that we do have an opportunity here, given that there will be a new Westminster Government, regardless of its politics, so the new one will be able to reflect on the processes that it wants to bring in, and it will not actually be responsible for what we have before us because it was a previous Government. Let us not argue the politics of that, but the point is that it will have changed. The committee makes a very important point there. I think that one of the duties to good governance in the round is that we would probably want to be assured that the errors that we cannot say with certainty, but certainly it looks as if it is the case, are ones that will adversely affect English legislation that applies elsewhere in the UK. We need to be satisfied, I think, that they become aware of what our officials and our committee have been aware of. I think that that may be a question of the Presiding Officer writing to the UK Government, because I understand that that is a protocol, or otherwise. I am not there, but having got to the point where we have established that the Scottish legislation is defective and the inference that the UK legislation, for which we are not responsible, may be similarly defective. I think that it is good behaviour for us to make sure that message gets back to those who can fix it. That is a very good point. As a matter of courtesy, it would only be a kindness on our part to perhaps point out the weaknesses of the legislation as we have found it, given that it appears to have been transmitted to us in its entirety in the way that it left Westminster. There is a warning, certainly, for us here in Scotland about doing that in the future, in regard to your comments, convener, about a change of government. Of course, there may be a change of government or there may not be, and we are not suggesting anything about that. However, the point is that it would probably not necessarily be a change of drafters or civil servants. Therefore, it is fundamentally not about the Government but about the process that we are concerned with. Indeed, and I am right with you. That was not meant to be a political comment. I do recognise that it will be the same drafters, but clearly they are working under instructions and the process does require a political leadership there, as it does here. That is clearly part of the problem, because they work into a 21-day rule and we are working into a 38-day rule, and it is the wrong way round. Convener, if I may, I do not think that we should get too bogged down about the 21-28 day. That is an issue. They have a timetable, and without having rigorously sought to identify fitness for purpose in UK legislative terms, we appear to be overview that it is very likely to be defective, and they are 21 days that they had available. They would appear not to have used correctly. It is not about the 21-28 days. I could drop into unparlamentary language at the drop of a hat. Please do not. We all know enough about processes too. Does that provide an adequate discussion of those? I go immediately straight on to the Police Pension Scheme Scotland Regulations 2015 SSI 2015 142, which is rather shorter. The drafting of the instrument is defective in that Regulation 663 does not include, in error, an equivalent to subparagraph D of Regulation 763 of the Police Pensions Regulations 2015, which introduced the counterpart police pension scheme in England and Wales. The effect of that error is that Regulation 663 does not set out in full the basis on which a selective medical practitioner must decide that a member of the scheme is permanently medically unfit for engaging in any regular employment. The regulations should include a provision requiring the practitioner to decide whether the inability is likely to continue until normal pension age or death. The Scottish Government has agreed to address this point by having an ending instrument with a retrospective effect, as from 1 April 2015. Notwithstanding that, does the committee agree to draw the instrument to the attention of the Parliament under reporting ground I as it appears to be defectively drafted? The instrument also contains a number of minor drafting errors. In Regulation 1321, the word pension should be added after adults. In Regulation 1375, the reference to paragraph 3 should be to paragraph 4. In Regulation 149, 4A, the reference to Regulation 159 should be to Regulation 150. In Regulation 171, the reference to Regulation 174 should be to Regulation 166. In Regulation 1983, the reference to Regulation 115 should be to Regulation 215. In Schedule 1 paragraph 1, the reference to Regulation 97 in subparagraph D of the definition of medical decision should be to Regulation 96. Although the Scottish Government has confirmed that these points will be addressed by way of an amending instrument with a retrospective effect, as from 1 April 2015. Does the committee also agree to draw the instrument to the attention of the Parliament under the general reporting ground on account of the aforementioned drafting errors? As was with the case with SSI 15140 and 2015 143, which were considered by the committee last week, this instrument and SSI 2015 141, which the committee had just considered, were laid on 26 March 2015 and came into force on 1 April 2015. The very short period of time between laying of those instruments and coming into force has meant that there has been no opportunity for scrutiny of the instruments to take place prior to them coming into force. Does the committee therefore agree to draw both instruments SSI 2015 141 and SSI 2015 142 to the attention of the Parliament under reporting ground J as they fail to comply with the requirements of section 282 of the Interpretation and Legislative Reform Scotland Act 2010? The committee may consider this breach of the 28 tool. Day rule raises again a broader issue about the timetabling of instruments that are prepared and laid in parallel with UK instruments that make similar provision. The committee reiterates the point that there is a clear need for projects of this nature to be planned in a way that allows for the procedural requirements of both parliaments to met, although noting again that the Minister for Parliamentary Businesses has undertaken in recent correspondence with the committee to review the processes for laying instruments in these circumstances and to take steps to improve awareness within the UK Government of the challenges involved. The committee may again wish to express its dissatisfaction that has not yet been achieved. I think that probably we have already made that point. Thank you. No points have been raised by our legal advisers on the common agricultural policy non-IACS support schemes appeal Scotland amendment regulations 2015, SI 2015, 167, nor the firements pension scheme amendment number two Scotland order 2015, SSI 2015, 173, nor on the police pensions amendment Scotland regulations 2015, SSI 2015, 174. Is the committee content with these instruments, please? Agender item 4 inquires into fatal accidents and sudden deaths etc. Scotland bill. The purpose of this item is for the committees to consider the delegated powers in the bill at stage 1. Members have seen the delegated powers memorandum and the briefing paper. Committee is invited to agree the questions that it wishes to raise with the Scottish Government on the delegated powers in the bill. It suggested that these questions are raised in written correspondence. The committee will have the opportunity to consider the responses at a future meeting before the draft report is then considered. Section 34.1 confers wide powers on the court of session to make rules by act of sedurant to regulate A, the practice and procedure to be followed at fatal accident inquiries, FAIs in the sheriff court and B, matters that are incidental or ancillary to such FAIs. Section 7 of the 1976 act currently confers power on the Lord Advocate to make rules about FAIs. Section 34 of the bill widens the rulemaking powers and confers them on the court of session. Subsection 3 of section 34.1 provides that an act of sedurant on to subsection 1 may make incidental, supplemental, consequential, transitional, transitory or saving provision and different provision for different purposes. In the context of providing a broad discretion to the court to regulate inquiry practice and procedure without parliamentary interference, but also to respect matters properly reserved to the legislature and ministers, does the committee agree to our Scottish ministers to explain, one that the limits of the power in section 34.1 B to make provision 4 or about any matter incidental or ancillary to an inquiry, two, whether such power permits the court to make provision in relation to matters other than procedure and practice in inquiry proceedings, including issues of substance relating to inquiry proceedings and three, the interaction between the power in section 34.1 B and the power in section 34.3 and in particular why the court requires the power in section 34.3 to make provision that is incidental or supplemental to matters that are in themselves incidental or ancillary to inquiries. Convener, we've had some of this discussion previously and I think while I'm content to allow this to go through without too much comment, I suspect that this is the sort of thing that Parliament in future, our successors in office, should tuck away as perhaps suitable for post-legislative scrutiny once it's seen how this actually pans out on these powers, which we are highlighting, are actually exercised in practice, so putting that on the record for future generations. Are we agreed to ask those questions, though, about? That brings us to agenda item 5, which is Apologies Scotland bill. The bill contains one delegated power set out in section 23 of the bill, which permits the Scottish ministers to modify the list of civil proceedings which are accepted from the effect of the bill. The power enables additions to be made to the list of exceptions for an exception to be removed or for the description of the exception to be adjusted. That power is subject to the affirmative procedure. Does the committee agree to report to the Parliament that is satisfied with the taking of the power in section 23 and that the affirmative procedure is appropriate? If there are no other comments that completes agenda item 5, I move this meeting into private. Thank you.


Let's do a couple more equations to solve them and you know, see, just work with this a little bit more because you're going to get a lot of these things. And this is, you know, one of the main things with mathematics, right, solving equations. So let's say we have something like this. Now there are two ways to solve this. In general, when you start out, most of the equations you get are going to be fairly easy. And all the fractions or common denominators are going to work out, right? That's how you get started in mathematics. So the first method is initially going to be easier to do. The second method is cross multiplication when you're solving these types of things. And that's going to come in handy a lot more. You can end up using a lot more when it comes to more complicated questions. I'm in general going to use cross multiplication. Multiply whatever fractions and solve for it. The other way to solve this is multiply this equation by the common denominator. That is multiply every single term in the equation by the common denominator. And what that does is it eliminates all the denominators. It eliminates the fractions, right? So for example, all of these terms, anything that's not a fraction is over one, right? So that's over one, that's over one, and that's over one. Now what's the common denominator between one, two, one, three, three, and one? Well, that's just going to be six. So what you're going to do is multiply this whole equation by six. Okay? So when you multiply this whole equation by six, six multiplies every term here. X over one times six is just going to be six X. Five over two times six, two is going to kill the six down to three, right? Reduce the six down to three. Let's just do this on the side here. So we're going to have five over two times six. Five over two times six. That's just six over one. Anything from the bottom can count on anything from the top. Two kills six down to three. So it's just going to be five times three, which is going to be 15. So this becomes 15 minus, that's just one, one does nothing to six. So two times six is going to be 12. Now remember, when you're doing this, when the two kills reduces the six down to three, this six is going to multiply the next term. It's not the three. Each multiplication is an individual operation that you're doing. Over here, two X over three, three reduces the six down to two. So it's only a two multiplying this. So it's going to be four X minus three reduces the six down to two. So it's only a two going to be multiplying this. Two minus six, because it's just one times six.  So this is going to add to this. This is just going to be six X minus negative 15 minus 12 is negative 27. Four X minus 18. Now bring all your X's to one side of the equation. Take your numbers to the other side. So bring all your light terms to one side, the X's anyway. So it's going to be minus four X. Grab that guy, bring it over. So it's going to be plus 27. So six X minus four X is going to be two X. Over here, you've got 27 minus eight. That's going to be 19. Divide by two. Divide by two. So X is equal to 19 over two. And that's your final answer. Now over here, we didn't have to write down any restrictions because we didn't have any variables in the denominator. They were just numbers. And with numbers, there is no restriction. The only time you have restrictions if you have your variables, X's or whatever it is in the denominator, then then it can vary variable. So you have to state your restriction on it. So for this equation, our solution is X is equal to 19 over two. Now let's do the same equation with cross multiplication. It might add a couple more steps, but you'll see how it works. It's just later on with larger problems. Cross multiplication is going to be super handy. Initially, if you're doing these solving these types of equations, this is in general the way that I've come across most students are taught in classrooms. And when it comes to harder problems, one way you can become harder is if the common denominator between these is not something simple, if it becomes something gigantic. So for example, if you had the denominator, something like, I've got a couple more denominators, if you had a 7 here and a 5 here, all of a sudden the common denominator becomes a little harder to find. So this becomes a lot more difficult doing it this way as compared to cross multiplication because the common denominator is not obvious what it is. Let's do this solve the same problem using cross multiplication. So we've got the same problem. Now instead of multiplying this whole thing by 6 every single term by 6, you know, getting rid of denominators, right? What we're going to do is use cross multiplication. That means combine everything here into one term, combine everything there into one term, and then cross multiply if you still have fractions. And we're definitely going to still have fractions, right? So line up your equal sign. The common denominator on this side of the equation is 2. So that's just over 1 over 1. You multiply this by 2, so that becomes 2x. That just remains as 5 minus 4. On this side of the equation, the common denominator is 3. So that becomes 2x minus 1 minus 3. Now combine your like terms, right? So you've got line up your equal sign again. 2x negative 5 minus 4 is negative 9. Over 2 is equal to 2x minus 4 over 3. And what you do now is we've got one fraction equal to another fraction. We're going to cross multiply this out. And 3 is going to come up here and multiply both those terms. So it's going to be 6x minus 27. On this side it's going to be 4x minus 8. And the way we solve for this now is we grab this guy, bring it over. Plus 27, grab that guy, bring it over. Minus 4x. So 6x minus 4x is going to be 2x. And that's going to be 27 minus 8 is going to be 19. And divide by 2, divide by 2. So x is equal to 19 over 2. And that's how you solve this equation using cross multiplication.  I just write down numbers and start doing them, right? I don't in general work them out initially to see if the answer is going to come out of the next equation or not. So sometimes I'm going to make equations up where the common denominator between the whole equation is extremely difficult to find. But it's going to be huge, right? Because they might not have the common denominator until you get further and further. Or you might have to multiply and hold everything together to get the common denominator. So in general, I'm going to use cross multiplication because I find that it works much better for solving equations, especially in real life, because in real life numbers don't work out as nicely as they do in the classroom. Or the questions that they give you are on an exam, right? In general numbers, you get a lot of irrational numbers. I've talked about irrational numbers. There's way more irrational numbers than rational numbers. And that's how you solve this equation using cross multiplication.


What's good, Joshua Ross back out again with another video. So we're gonna check out ten classic matches that saved terrible WWE Pay-per-views We've all seen at some point an awful Pay-per-view Produced by WWE and there was that one match or maybe two Couple matches that saved the pay-per-view, but it's usually that one match that Ultimately help the pay-per-view made it a lot more enjoyable and it's usually the main event Sometimes it's in the middle of a card Sometimes it may be at the beginning of the card But it's usually towards the end in the main event and a good match a fantastic match can overall change your score and Rating a pay-per-view on the scale of one to ten it has for me plenty plenty of times So I want to say the one thing that comes to me instantly I would have to say if you guys remember WrestleMania 31, which was a it was a solid WrestleMania but I didn't think it was nowhere as good as WrestleMania 30 and What saved WrestleMania 31 for me was the Brock Lesnar Roman Reigns match How entertaining it wasn't in Seth Rollins cashing in it had the fans Just amped and hyped up it saved that pay-per-view It was some highlights in you know in that pay-per-view for WrestleMania 31 But to me it saved it and people remember it fondly because of the triple threat match so But we're gonna get right into this appreciate all the love and support roads to 60k and let's see what Kota Harlech can come up with It might be slightly different in the WWE Network slash peacock era but back in the day when you had to fork over quite a few Dollar-y dudes in order to see them fans expected WWE pay-per-views to be worth the money Usually meant that several of the matches had to be of real quality at least much better than what could be viewed on free TV Every week anyone who has seen more than one order only WWE show knows that they're not always a sound investment In fact, there's sometimes a little bit. Oh, what's that phrase again?  We've all heard of the term one match show and throughout WWE history there have been a bunch of them if that one match is a Certifiable classic it can save even the dreariest pay-per-view and live long and strong enough in the memory that you forget about the rest of The hogwash that surround this is why I say WrestleMania 31 is it falls in that category for me I think a lot of people remember that pay-per-view just off the main event alone because it was actually enjoyable People weren't looking forward to the Brock and Roman Reigns Match only because they were kind of forcing Roman Reigns, you know down our throat at the time but people were enjoying it it was Arguably well, it was the match of the night and like I said, Seth Rollins catching in made that pay-per-view memorable from that one match Underdates, I'm Adam Pacizzi from Cultaholic Wrestling and these are 10 classic matches for views join us Number 10 the shield versus Cody Rhodes and Goldust at Battleground Was a bad show where nothing really seemed to click properly the opener between Rob Van Dam and Alberto del Rio got things off to a Promising start even if it wasn't a five-star affair But just about everything after it was in one way or another rubbish Carly and Santino taking on the real Americans do anything for you. How about Curtis? Yes He really was intercontinental champion defending against our truth AJ Lee and Brie Bella get your juices flowing Do they not like that your filthy simpletons Bray Wyatt versus Kofi Kingston was aimless CM Punk versus Ryback arbitrary and Randy Orton versus Daniel Bryan Unsatisfactory the one positive of Battleground 2013 was Cody Rose and Goldust fighting WWE tag-team champions the shield Now Robinson Reigns weren't putting the straps on the line But Dusty's kids were fighting for their jobs knowing that if they lost not only would they be banished But their papa would lose his position as an NXT trainer, too The hounds of justice had been winning everything and well oiled machine heading into the high stakes contest The work was good as you would expect But the emotion and drama of the storyline put it over the edge the pinnacle coming when the American dream himself got involved Leading to the euphoria of Cody hitting crossroads for the field bro I'm getting goosebumps just thinking about Cody Rose hitting the crossroads to win the match Fantastic match, bro. Fantastic match. Definitely Something that elevated this pay-per-view good win number nine Kurt Angle versus Brock Lesnar at SummerSlam 2003 SummerSlam is supposed to be one of WWE's premier events an original part of the so-called Big Four and the biggest Party of the summer well the party got rained out and ants devoured the barbecue in 2003 because that year's SummerSlam was an Uncharacteristically dull and disappointing occasion the biggest letdown was Goldberg's failure to win the world heavyweight title in that to me was That was dumb. They had built this man up like a monster Just for him to still lose because evolution got involved bro that yeah That that was a letdown at that time the main event after smashing through most of the field in the elimination Chamber match only to succumb to an injured triple H But other anticipated matches like Kane and Rob Van Damme's grudge clash and a talent stuffed four-way US title bout also failed to Spark luckily Brock Lesnar and Kurt Angle were on hand to pick up the slack having a customarily exceptional Wrestling match with the WWE title on the line It was also different to their previous ones as Angle was now the babyface champion Lesnar the heel aligned with the villainous mr. McMahon they beat the hell out of one another for 20 minutes with all manner of suplexes submissions and dramatic near falls down the final stretch and Not only that but it had the right result to the Olympic hero overcoming interference from the genetic jackhammer to win clean by submission Number eight Roman Reigns versus Daniel Bryan at Fastlane 2015 This one is actually a really good one This one right here Fastlane was a soft substitute for the pure mayhem of the elimination chamber pay-per-view if truth be told The last stop on the road to WrestleMania the first Fastlane went down in 2015 and offered up a card that looked weak and turned out to be even weaker The opening six man between the authority and the odd squad of Dolph Ziggler Eric Rowan and Ryback was by the numbers Rawfare the first major match between gold dust and stardust was an unfortunate calamity The Usos and Tyson Kidd and Cesaro sadly under delivered as their match was all right But never really got going page and Nikki Bella had to fight in difference for the five minutes They had bad news Barrett and Dean Ambrose's icy title meeting was plodding with a crap finish and Cena versus Rusev was good enough But really just your usual Cena match going on last after the fans had been bored to tears for most of the show Daniel Bryan tried to fight his way into another WrestleMania main. It's fantastic, bro. Just Man, this this made this pay-per-view that much better because we all wanted to see if Daniel Bryan Can possibly do do it again main event WrestleMania Can he get the job done people were rooting for him loved it an event challenging Roman Reigns with the big dogs WrestleMania WWE title shot on the line these two are very good together even on a bad day But they were excellent here making me less angry at myself for sitting through fast lane by having a damn fine drama filled Main events number seven Steve Austin versus Bret Hart at WrestleMania 13 Bret Hart was due a rematch with WWE champion Sean Michaels at WrestleMania 13 before the heartbreak kid misplaced his smile With drew from the show and through booking plans into chaos The Hitman's plan B was a pretty damn good one though taking on a red hot stone called Steve Austin But the submission match stipulation looked like it could handcuff them slightly with Austin himself worried that the match would be a Disappointment especially after the two had produced a blinder at the last survivor series But he needn't have panicked because the Texas rattlesnake and the excellence of execution produced not just a great match Not just one of the best in WrestleMania history, but one of the best in WWE history period heated dramatic and with an iconic finish It truly was a thing of beauty capped off with a clever double-turn that saw hearts go bad as Austin officially became a hero Yep, this is how surprise booking and going with the hot hand Works, so this is how it works They went with the hot hand and stone cold and this This is one of the moments that turned them into a face because he didn't tap Blood pouring down his face. He never tapped the ref had to call it. That's how you book someone strong That is how someone gets over because the crowd can only respect you like bro. He didn't even tap He didn't tap him. He wasn't gonna tap no matter what I love it, bro Definitely deserves to be on this list It should have been main event really, but unfortunately that honor went to the undertaker and Sid who turned in an overlong Snoozer that ended things on a down note. The rest of the card ranged from poor to Mare to just about good enough and outside of Bret and Steve is rightly remembered as one of the worst mania's ever number six the world title six pack challenge at Fastlane 2018 Taking place just a few weeks after Elimination Chamber and only a few weeks before WrestleMania Fastlane 2018 is a pay-per-view that really had no reason for existing a small to be honest with you fast lane has always been like a Like a pay-per-view that I didn't think needed to be a thing I think they needed to just focus more on building the storylines to WrestleMania They didn't need to be a pay-per-view after Elimination Chamber Exclusive events fast lane pretty much resembled your average episode of the blue brand's TV show save for a bustling main event An unforgettable end to an eminently forgettable show the six-pack challenge WWE title match that headlined was a modern-day minor Classic AJ Styles defended against John Cena, Sami Zayn, Dolby Ziggler, Kevin Owens and Baron Corbin And the sex debt didn't bother warming up and easing into things Deciding instead to go full throttle from the off the pace maintaining for the 20 plus minutes of the matches duration There was some excellent multi-man sequences nail biting near falls and Importantly genuine storyline progression on display in the end the phenomenal one retained with a forearm out of nowhere It was total chaos, and it was just lovely to witness Elsewhere Nakamura beat Rusev in an okay opener Randy Orton and Robert Rude snooze their way through a US title match Naomi and Becky Lynch felt a Natalia and Carmella in a match that happened The Usos and the New Day went to an unsatisfying no-contest and Charlotte beat Ruby Riot in a token title defense Number five Rey Mysterio versus Chris Jericho at The Bash 2009 there was nothing great or particularly American about Existed for the sake of existing Excitement for those that ordered the show which incidentally wasn't that many people the star power was there and on paper CM Punk versus Jeff Hardy for the world heavyweight title Triple H taking on Randy Orton and a three stages of hell WWE title match and the Cologne's defending the tag straps against Edge and Chris Jericho and legacy all looked solid enough in execution However, the action was mostly dull and booking questionable in particular John Cena's demolition job of the Miz Double duty that night why 2j put together a mask versus icy title masterpiece with brain stereo That outside of the Undertaker versus Shawn Michaels may have been WWE's best match of the year a fast-paced wrestling rollercoaster that served as a fitting finale to their months-long rivalry Stipulations added real stakes and only sought to ramp up the drama with every clever false finish many of which alluded to previous Contests in their series the finish was genius too as Jericho went to one mask rey as he had done previously Only for the master of the 619 to reveal that he had a second mask on underneath Inning Jericho to win the gold number four JBL versus Eddie Guerrero at Judgment Day 2004 Roster was left threadbare in the wake of WrestleMania 20 and the post-wrestle mania draft Lesnar left Angle and Big Show got injured and while they had their ranks bolstered some by the arrival of Rob Van Dam and Booker T The only two real top tier stars were Eddie Guerrero and the Undertaker the shallow depth of the roster was exposed at Judgment Day 2004 a Smackdown only pay-per-view that mostly resented man. I miss judgment day man judgment day was a pretty Just it was a dope pay-per-view. You knew you was gonna see some wild shit on judgment day Well the televised house show Mysterio and RVD's opener with the Dudley's was fine But everything after was weaker than a bowl of cat piss Dorn Marie part 57 Mordecai's debut match with Scotty to Hotty Charlie Haas and Rico tangling with Bob Holly and Billy Gunn and Chavo trying to get the cruiserweight title from Jacqueline must have had some fans thinking that they had accidentally tuned in to an extended episode of Velocity John Cena and Renee Dupree's US title match was decent enough and Undertaker's victory over Booker T Just about possible but the real quality came last as Latino Heat defended his WWE title in an epic bloodbath with JBL Obviously everybody remembers the sheer amount of plasma that Guerrero shed that night Jesus itself was genuinely gripping just buckets of blood. Oh my god, bro man, yeah, it Definitely got a Colored black and black and white man. You saw that type of you show a screenshot of the amount of blood and he was Losing bro. No, no block your video man. Whoo, and more than made up for the earlier dross number three Shawn Michaels versus mankind at in your house mind games as bad as things got during Consistent and sometimes outrun terrible new generation era. You could always Nothing else Shawn Michaels to give you a show often being the show saver as much as the show stopper Providing he remembered where he put his smile. That is he did it as SummerSlam 1995 in his ladder match sequel with Razor Ramon He did it in the cell against the Undertaker at Bad Blood 97 and by gum he did it against mankind at 96s in your house mind games Foley hadn't been around but for half a year when he headlined against WWE champion Michaels But truly had a breakout performance that night in Philadelphia with many of the ECW fans who had watched him years before no doubt cheering him on it was an exceptional contest with a Sadly unsatisfying finished, but it served as Foley's breakout performance while also showing that the flamboyant boy toy Could show true grit when the occasion called for it the rest of the show Nobody needs to see Savio Vega and Bradshaw in a strap match or Jose Lothario Five years old Oh, and Davey boy beating the smoking guns or my this was a thing. I was a little kid So I I don't remember like my mom ever getting buying a Like a pay-per-view at the time It would only be like my uncle on my dad's side Henry's debut against Jerry Lawler or for that matter the Undertaker and Goldust sleepwalking their way through whatever the hell a final curtain matches Number two Undertaker at WrestleMania 27 WrestleMania is just yeah, definitely the most anticipated show of the year A way to reward long-term die-hards for their devotion to the product while Simultaneously being a way to hook casual or even non-fans on their brand of sports Entertainment a great WrestleMania can seriously turn a passive viewer into a lifelong foam finger buying member of the WWE universe while a bad one can potentially turn them off for good WrestleMania 27 was a shop window that showcased one piece of prime a grade steak In a match for the night piled high Spam the filet mignon was of course the cracking battle between Triple H and the Undertaker the two road weary war horses Having a brutal no DQ match that was a worthy follow-up to the Deadman's WrestleMania series with HBK From the special entrances to the pounding opening exchanges right through to the streak ending teasers and inevitable take a win It was a masterclass fantastic and saved the show Everything else on it was either iffy just about good or downright tragic While Edge and Alberto del Rio Rey Mysterio and Cody Rhodes and Randy Orton and CM Punk all had matches with some quality on show Lola Cole snooki and the dodgy main event dragged the show right down Had it not been for the game and the phenom it would be considered one of if not the worst WrestleMania ever Elimination Chamber match at New Year's Revolution 2005 2005 a show now I haven't dabbled in witchcraft since I accidentally gave myself a Micro penis don't worry. I'm halfway recovered now, but all signs points a yes In the opener Eugene blew out his knee as he and William Regal defended their tag-team titles against Christian and Tyson Tomco Then in the second match Lita blew her knee out early in her title defense against Trish Stratus Following those blunders Shelton Benjamin and Maven had two short non-matches Muhammad Hassan stunk it out with Lola and then in the match of the night to that point Kane beat Jean Snitsky in their usual monster battle It was up to the world heavyweight title elimination chamber to prevent the event from being a total washout Luckily Triple H Randy Orton Batista Chris Jericho Chris Benoit and Edge with Sean Michaels a special breath came through and had a long and Grawling scrap for the vacant title It was a total one-match show on paper and it turned out to be one in practice too But what a match it was delivering everything expected and more and ensuring that the WWE cruise trip to San Juan wasn't in vain No, that was that was actually the earlier elimination chamber matches were actually really great It wasn't until you started getting into the late 2010s They started kind of getting a little washed out and weren't they didn't hit the same They didn't have the same feel like it was just one of those things was like oh, this is just a way you know it's the the The road to WrestleMania this is like the halfway point, but the earlier rest elimination chambers Fantastic love those matches. They definitely were obviously the matches of the night for a lot of them Just questionable booking here and there, but comment down below Let me know can you guys think of any other matches that you feel like save that particular pay-per-view? The one I thought of instantly at the beginning of the video is the Roman Reigns versus Brock with Seth Rollins interfering catching in his money in the bank. So comment down below Let me know any other matches you can think of and save those particular pay-per-views Appreciate all loves support road to 50k. I keep saying 50. It's really 60 Appreciate y'all kicking it with me. I see y'all on the next one. Peace


This video is brought to you in part by TrueTechTools, quality tools, essential support. What's going on guys? So today we have got a cooler. This is a two compressor unit that's two separate circuits here. I was here yesterday didn't have enough time to finish everything up and because of the lower temperatures out we're able to secure it overnight. So let's take a look at what we had. So what we got going on here is we had an oil failure on this compressor here on the left. This one right here as you can see we had oil all over the place.  I ran some brake cleaner on it to clean some of the oil off and I went ahead and pumped some oil into it but because we're low on refrigerant I decided to just shut it off because it was short cycling and even after jumping 24 pounds 25 pounds of 407c in there it still wasn't making a dent in the operation. The cyclast looks awfully empty and so we've got enough time now we can get started on this thing. This thing's taking care of some pretty big walking coolers multiple evaporators in there in that same section. Let's go ahead and get this other door off and let's start seeing if we can find out where this leak is coming from. So I'm contemplating possibly valving this thing off and pressurizing the compressor because I truly believe that my leak is in the compressor. The pressure that we had over here was so low that really wasn't that great. The detector was going off but it just seems like it's leaking down here on the bottom of the actual base plate of the oil pan area.  I'm a little leery about pressurizing it with nitrogen because if it would leak through those valves it could go back into the system and there's not a lot of pressure on it to really push up against it so even if I wanted to try to stay underneath my actual standing pressure of the refrigerant it may not be really beneficial anyway. So today right now it's about 49 degrees out here and I am not picking up any leaks so far.  When it was running I checked here on the discharge rotolock didn't pick anything up. So when we was here yesterday I went ahead and scanned the usual culprits around these seals on the filters. I did not pick up anything like I said this pressure sucks they're just it's so cold out here everything's dropped in pressure those are optional that's why we got a cap on that I didn't do that. I walked the building yesterday just to see if we had any catastrophic leaks once they said hey we can wait till tomorrow I said all right let's go ahead and get tomorrow so here we are oh look at that look at that leak that's lovely that thing is leaking that bad with the cap on holy crap yeah that's not good I did not even mess with this yesterday oh that's cute look at that guys let's go ahead and put a cap on there that doesn't have a rubber seal in it brilliant flipping brilliant so yeah look at that big old monster leak we got there so it's leaking through that the place I actually was adding refrigerant was back here on the suction dryer because I wanted to try to let it flash off before it hit the compressor but that's that's just lovely that we are leaking that bad all right got us a brass cap got some new toys here that we're going to be showing off here for long got the trade fox jumper king picked up my own posi lock big 17 the 108 17 ton polar all right let's go ahead and get this cap on how many pounds of refrigerant did we lose because of dumb dumb poor practices they won't be reusing that cap now now see that just makes it even more worrisome to try to trust that that valve there because if it can't even valve off when it's sitting there and they're ready state let's let's just take a look and see if they back seated it or if they were lazy on that too these garbage caps don't usually ever stop anything they're about lucky if they stop the dust well somebody's got that nice and tight because you know refrigerant pressure will never get past the plastic cap of a rubber seal in there now even this being the bigger wrench it won't fit that I have some nice square sockets but you can use a crescent wrench if you want it's fairly tight it does have a packing nut on there let's scan that thing and see if we got any leaks on the packing nut area of course you do kind of ppm route mode we got here okay that's generally what we got is big blue I just used the better spray bottle here okay let's go ahead and soap this thing down I mean obviously it's not bubbling humongous we can try to tighten that packing nut just a touch here we go we'll see how that does now that we've got that let's just go ahead and scan over that compressor see if we got anything leaking out of that area back on super mode I was picking things up along the cracks and crevices of the bottom here I want to scan inside the electrical panel there I've had these leak uh around the terminals where it comes out see if we get anything stupid in here power is off on it I am not picking up anything gotta remember this thing is probably 100 pounds low at minimum so we're not looking for micro bubbles here we're looking for a real dog leak here going back over that now with that there on super mode still nothing not picking up anything here on the brass cap yeah I mean it's it's one of the things okay do we have gasket seals leaking around the top here what exactly is our major malfunction and like I said I did try to clean some of this crap off it just is counterproductive when you got that much grease I mean once again pressures are really low let's go ahead and get this thing warm and running slow pressure switch here set to cut out at about five pounds unfortunately it was very reactive and it was cutting in and out we're gonna be adding refrigerant the whole time so I'm gonna go ahead and bypass that because I don't want to short cycle the compressor to make it a little easier to stay in my area here because I really didn't want to have to fool with that stupid compressor we're just gonna go ahead do it back here yeah let's go ahead and get our hoses blood out and then we'll get started and adding right now what I'm doing is just adding one bottle at a time so we're just gonna go off factory default of what refrigerant is in the bottle we're not even gonna weigh it right now we are on our third jug we're at 240 for our head the fans starting to cycle just about empty on that cyclist it's kind of interesting that they're cycling this fan here in the middle so that's probably jacked up it really should be the closest fan to the manifold here on the end with the leaks that we had sight glass that leaking like a sieve we're gonna go ahead and start searching now that we've got like 200 some pounds of pressure we should be able to find any leaks on the discharge my hose here was leaking a little bit for whatever reason of stupid seals sometimes they don't hold on very good you got tubing all over the place in here and we're just getting all these diaphragms I did take off my low pressure switch jumper there so many places for a leak to happen it's just crazy see how we're doing down here last time we were getting some pretty good size hits down here on the oil fill oh she's shut down she's happy I'd say she probably satisfied unfortunately may have worked out the oil too we're kind of like feeding it pretty quick yeah there we go yeah she she pumped down it's down to 10 psi so now we can at least scan the high side it's got 212 pounds of head on it but the uh low side it's going to be nothing there to set anything off nothing leaking on that suction oh a little bit of there on the suction nothing probably he won't go we're on like I said super mode here yeah I would like to see this completely degreased and all this crap knocked off of it like I said that suction is so low you're not really gonna get anything major off of that compressor that's for your head pressure control so open on uh open on rise and open on differential basically you get a little bit bigger and you've got to basically use two individual valves just because the little bitty ones that you see just aren't big enough what I'm going to do if I'm going to go inside and get the lift because this is a real fandango to get around in here because it's all food area so you got to have your little hair nets and your feet a guy get clean properly and everything's all sanitary so uh I want to make sure we got everything taken care of out here as best as possible what we're going to need to do is open up a solenoid and let some of the refrigerant throw through so that we've got some pressure on that coil like I was saying you know we're only a 13 pound suction you're not going to find a whole lot with that so that's what we're going to do here in a second once I get hold of maintenance let's make sure that uh they know what I'm doing and uh what kind of go from there if I had water and degreaser it probably would be better but for right now we're just going to have to make this work see if we can get some of that oil and crap off there we're going to clean up those edges where that crap's all at just trying to get this crap off the uh compressor top that way we can tell if we have any new leaks or not like I said degreaser would be better but I don't have any on the truck so this is what I'm gonna make work we've got her cleaned up a little bit better I mean it's least not obviously oily okay we're running 240 fans are cycling uh looks like we're a little low on refrigerant depending on whether it's just now feeding or not it looks like our fan control is right there one two three and one two three so something's either out of order or maybe that's how they did it but make sure it's on the right direction appears it is yeah we're nowhere near as much refrigerant as what we need so it's still I think we're pretty much down to vapor at least now we can see whether or not it's any fresh oil leaking from anywhere I mean this thing was saturated with it and now we can see if it's leaking just to make diagnosing it a little bit easier okay it's running let's check our high side here make sure we don't have anything leaking out of that which it does not appear like I said original so you got a little bit down here on the bottom still not sure what you're supposed to do about that so we may have gaskets or something on the bottom that's got issues going underneath this head gasket here picking up stuff on that which is lovely compressor just shut off was earlier when it was low on the refrigerator yeah looks like I got some leaks around the head gasket which would probably explain why you've got such a freaking mess before the compressor I don't know yet we're seeing tighten stuff up so the ppm mode is not always the best mode for finding leaks it's just usually good well it'd been nice to not have that just kick right on but literally down here on that crack where the plates are together we were getting up to about 40 to 50 parts per million and it really is nothing else that would be causing that I was thinking about seeing if I can get the torque rating and double check and see these I think this serial number's a 2020 and it's very possible that we probably had COVID employees doing it which means it's probably done incorrectly all right so I wrote filter dryer cans were rated for 20 to 5 to 30 psi this is a cheap Pittsburgh but I'll tell you what at least it's going to be consistently the same torque on every bolt so I set it up for 35 well guess what I'm finding out it's turning on pretty much all of them so we've been going through and I'm tightening each one up till it finally locks up most of these I've gotten quite a bit of turn on and these here I've already gotten but I got to get in there a little bit further to get those back once we'll recheck it after we get done yeah right here's one there so yeah it's been like that so we're gonna go ahead and do the whole thing chances are it was probably put together improperly this everyone's saying that it's probably a year old maybe two years old at the most and it wouldn't surprise me so we're gonna go through and torque everything we'll see if it works it's probably crap in the gasket now probably too late but we can put new head gaskets on it now the bottom piece uh I'm sure it can be done uh but that definitely would require us to yank it out flip it upside down and probably uh redo that Copeland's real close to my area a good portion of these have turned some are fixed a little bit of a turn keep on shipping them jobs out that's what you get not saying americans do a good job all the time anyway because half of them are drug addicts or lazy or whatever gosh look at all that now this dumb thing didn't just loosen up they either didn't torque it and that's at 35 hopefully that's the correct torque I mean if it's good enough for a filter I gotta hold it trevor rath used to ask him since he worked for cope one emerson whoever you want to call him that week and see if he had any any answers for me if he knew what the uh correct torque was I don't think it sucks I don't think I can get on this bottom very easy but yeah I might be able to get on that claw foot possibly I'm gonna do what I can on the bottom we'll see what we can do here see what we get here still getting a little something but nothing like we had earlier my bill taker up to 40 I really wish I knew what the foot pounds were on that I don't want to go too much see if we get anything down here on the bottom now I'm not really getting anything I am just a touch but like I said I went through and wiped all grease off of that wow we're not hardly getting nothing so it might all be back here I was getting stuff yeah see still am yeah see that I got some major leakage on the bottom there I can get to those luckily underneath here wow now we're leaking it those not not those bolts what a joke piss poor quality we're doing a little web search all right so looking at this emerson bulletin cylinder head head bolts capacity control blah blah blah they are grade eights they're doing an inch pound so depending on what it is there's 300s 500s those are 40s three whatever's let's see what this thing is I don't remember maybe we can see it on this other compressor tag because I don't know if that took some of the tag off or not okay this is maybe a 3r something a discus I can't read it because the stupid thing came off let's just say 300 inch pounds well there's 12 inches in a foot so at 300 divided by 12 be 25 go figure right at 500 divided by 12 would be 41 so I was doing 35 I guess we're just going to stick with 35 we'll see how that does if it holds great at this point you know I don't yeah what do you know what do you know I don't know nothing so let's get down there see if we can tighten them up all right this is going to sound kind of chintzy but we took her down to high which is what half the detectors out there can do and when we check the head gasket there does not go off but if I go down here to the bottom it was kind of hitting every now and again on that the bottom plate all of the bolts were tight we're not loose at all they're back to super which you know the super is kind of for sniffing things out it's very stupid sensitive when you do that see how we got we're getting hits there that's how I find leaks that everybody else misses going to high which is what the old D tech had nothing so I always go on super just because I try to find everything but I'll tell you from what I'm seeing we just made it a hundred times better than what it was I mean a pound here or two there I'm not horribly worried about but a hundred and that could be a problem what we'll do as always I put it in their ballpark we will say hey flicking along the bottom a little bit and if you want to fix that we can for you but here we are back on super just kind of scan the top of the head gasket the bolts had to get a deep well for this one there where they mount the pressure switch not really picking up anything now I got that cover back on the electrical I'm going to go inside and scan the evaporators but you can tell this has been going on for a while that crap that's all over is just ridiculous yep 56% crazy it's been lasting that long it is just crazy I got everything cleaned up it still not came on it went through a defrost thought we'd be eventually getting to it so I'm gonna do so I'm going to go ahead and relieve that let that go there it goes get too far down and don't release so you gotta get me right in the middle there it's kind of corny as soon as this thing comes on like that I'm gonna go ahead and kill it that'll let the fresher continue to build up a little bit I don't want to let run for too long because I don't want too much liquid coming back it's right now boiling off through the evaporator so I just wanted to make sure we had enough pressure on there to pick up any leaks if there is any inside so let's go ahead and undo that and we'll put this back on that way we don't forget and accidentally burn the coil up and let's go inside and see if we can find anything all right so those lines come in right there in the wall and they come up and it looks like it's the back one right here so they go across and they go to those evaporators right there all right let's go ahead and kill these so we've got four monster fans here we're gonna let that stabilize for a sec obviously it's turned off we're gonna see if we can pick up anything coasting out again remember we put up pretty much close to 100 pounds in this thing so if it was leaking in here it should go berserker what I wanted to do was check the distributor tubes and inside this the evaporator box that's been running so it's going to suck all the refrigerant out and blowing it out but like I said if it was really hammering down and leaking you would have it going off luckily we got the lift here that makes it a lot easier so we've got this opened up and we're going through and we're pretty well sniffing all these areas in here just to make sure everything's clean and clear which I already went through it but just to kind of document it I'm going ahead and getting it on here I went ahead and went through each individual piece there didn't see anything at all and we're going to go ahead and scan the back of the coil real quick can get inside here too like I said we should be picking things up if it's that big of a leak we've got that one back on got this one off then scan this over and then if there's no leaks we'll be done well that's kind of interesting strap holding that bad boy up that's pretty creative suppose whatever works okay so we've got this one opened up we went ahead and scanned all up inside there surprisingly no leaks in there either scan the back side of the coil so good to go all right so while we're here let's see if we can get this thing running then be able to wrap it up so I think this might have got damaged it's a variable speed for a exhaust that is up there all right guys it's going to wrap that one up as you've seen there we had leaks all over the place and we got them all fixed there's itty bitty bitty bitty bit I don't know the one on the very bottom like I said it's super super super small I think the cost to try to get that fixed probably is going to outweigh any benefits of trying to repair it I guess we'll just go at this point what we're going to do is just watch it and make sure that it's not becoming an issue we've went ahead and checked all the other areas to see whether or not there's any other areas leaking and at this point I believe we're good to go so if you guys enjoyed the video and want to see more like it check out some of the other 400 plus videos and until next time guys we'll catch you on the next one later


Hey, this is Brett, and this 2018 GMC Sierra 2500 Crew Cab Short Box SLT is stock number 1-3003 Z-A. I'm here at Summit Automotive in Fond du Lac, Wisconsin, year new and used heavy-duty truck headquarters. This 2018 GMC Sierra has the 6.6-liter Duramax diesel. This is the L5P engine, puts out 445 horsepower. It's paired up with the Allison Heavy-Duty 6-Speed Automatic Transmission. This truck has been fully safety done and inspected by our service shop. It has a fresh oil and filter change. All the fluids have been checked and topped off, and this truck is 100% ready to go. I'm going to go all the way around in this video inside, underneath, start it up, and take a look under the hood. Deep, mahogany, and metallic is the color. I shoot all my videos in 4K, so if you have HD capabilities on your computer, tablet, smartphone, or television, I highly recommend turning them on right now because it's your best way to check out the quality, quick condition, and options of the truck before seeing it in person.  Very nice and clean. I didn't see any dents or dings on there. Front fenders in fantastic condition. And if you want to subscribe to the YouTube channel, where I do these videos each and every day, it's youtube.com slash summit auto. Front rim is an excellent condition. You get the 20-inch polished aluminum, and it comes with open country Toyo tires. These are LT-285-60-R20 tires. Front tires have, I would say, probably 80% of the tread left on them, frame and underbodies in very nice condition. It is a little bit dusty. I think this one came from one of the Dakotas. It has the HID headlamps, the LED running lights, and the factory fog lights. Front bumper parking sensors. No major dents or dings on that front bumper. Chrome trimmed grille, and it does have the cowl induction hood. This is a fully functional cowl induction. I'll show you how that works in just a little bit. But I didn't see any dents or dings on the hood. And the passenger side front fender is in very nice condition as well. Passengers side rim, no major scuffs or scrapes on there. Deep mahogany has got a lot of metal flake to it. Really a good looking color. And as you go down this side of this 2018 GMC Sierra, take note of how clean the body is, how reflective, and mirror like that paint is. I take these HD videos, so if you are far, far away, or even if you're close by, and you just cannot make the trip down, but you're still interested in purchasing the vehicle, you can see the truck, hear the truck, and have confidence in the vehicle that you're looking at before you even get here. So when you do get here, there's absolutely no surprises. And you can make a smart and informed buying decision from wherever you're at. And if this video helps you make that buying decision, let your salesman know that you saw the video, that it was helpful, and that Brett sent you. Very clean down that side. Back rim is in excellent shape as well. No scuffs or scrapes on there. And the back tires have just as much tread as the front tires. Frame and underbody, you can see right here we were able to get all that dust off underneath. Just a little bit dusty, but I always say rather dusty than rusty. It has all the remaining factory exhaust, so it's never been altered, and other than a little bit of dust. She's in really nice condition under there. Lower rockers and cab corners look good, and it comes with the nice factory chrome step bars. Pastner sidebox is in excellent shape as well. Rear bumper does have a couple little dings, but it doesn't affect the performance of the truck. Harking sensors, rear bumper steps, full towing package, which includes the receiver hitch four pin and seven pin wiring, and the tailgate. I didn't see any major dings on there. Has a roll up tonneau cover. Didn't see any rips or tears on that. Locking tailgate, shock down assist. Has a spree in bed liner. Bed's in really nice shape, and it does have LED bed lighting up there. And that bed liner goes on to the tailgate as well. Tailgate shuts nice and solidly, and it's a good on the driver's side, just as clean as the rest of the side. Other side of the truck, and the back rim is in nice shape as well. Cab and doors look really good. It does have the telescopic tow mirrors, built in directional signals, LED side lights. They do telescope out, kind of stuff right now, but they do telescope out. Has the tan leather interior, SLT package, no rips or tears on that seat. Looks really good. Both of these front seats are heated and cooled. Factory floor mats, auto headlamps turned off four-wheel drive and factory brake controller. Tilt and telescopic steering wheel, power windows, power locks, power mirrors. These mirrors do power fold in. I always like showing both sides, so that you know that both sides are working properly. And it does have the Bose sound system. Back seats are just as clean as the front seats. No rips or tears back here. It does have the latch child safety system for any child car seats you may have. And that fixed glass rear window. Interior is very nice on this truck. Back carpeting is in great shape. Didn't see any rips or tears on there. It does have the side curtain airbags and the bottoms of the doors all look really good. Didn't see any corrosion. Cab corner on this side looks good. We'll hop inside, check out the miles, the radio, and everything that this truck has to offer. You can see that this one has 90,086 miles, digital speedometer, compass display, instrument cluster is very nice and clean. Comes with the heated leather wrap steering wheel, Bluetooth and information center controls on the right, cruise controls on the left, forward collision warning controls and your heated steering wheel controls there as well. Audio controls on the back of the steering wheel and of course it has the six speed Allison heavy duty transmission with the optional tap shift. Has the GMC IntelliLink system with the factory nav. You can see there's self-rolling meadows drive. That's right where we're at so that is working nicely. AM, FM and Sirius XM radio capabilities and you get a projection manager. We can project your cell phone to the screen via Android Auto or Apple CarPlay.  Down here you get two USBs, two 12 volt power points and a 110 volt 150 watt plug-in. Passenger side format and seat, fantastic condition, no rips or tears. I don't think this truck's ever been smoked in. It does have the wireless cell phone charge pad and the headliner is in very nice condition as well. Up here you get map lights and home link buttons for your garage door security systems and lighting systems on-star and SOS capabilities in the rearview mirror. We'll start it up and take a quick look under the hood. Also go check out all those HID lights. Starts right up, no check engine lights or anything like that. I would personally like to thank you for checking out the video today. There are those LED lights, they are super bright and hopefully from this HD video you've been able to verify the quality condition options and cleanliness of this truck all the way around inside and out. There are those HID lights, they are super bright. Under the hood we have the 6.6 liter Duramax diesel engine, L5P, 445 horsepower engine base, very clean, runs very smooth. Once again this truck has been fully safe and inspected by a service shop, has a fresh oil and filter change all the fluids have been checked and topped off and this truck is 100% ready to go. There's your emission sticker. So that cowl induction air comes in there, comes over to this side, this inlet right here goes right into your air box. That's how that works. They want to show you the tire and loading information sticker and VIN sticker real quick. There's that and there's that. All right, very nice truck especially for 90,000 miles. I don't think you'll be disappointed in this one.

You see a lot of interesting things at the shows at CES, but inside PEPCOM, I've never been before seeing what looks to be a helicopter, but I think Greg Larry's going to correct me immediately and say it's not a helicopter. This is a personal aviation vehicle, also known as an electric vertical takeoff and landing aircraft. Okay, so tell us about it. I'm just going to get in my own little VTOL and go flying, huh? You do have the opportunity to fly wherever you want with this aircraft. It's designed under the FAA's Part 103 regulations, which means that you can fly the aircraft in Class G airspace, which are typically rural or unpopulated areas, which represents about approximately 90% of the U.S. land in the United States. Nothing where I live in L.A., but everywhere else, right? As with me. So this is an unusual-looking aircraft. Can you describe it for our audio listeners? Yeah, so this, again, is an electric vertical takeoff and landing. It'll take off directly from this position, pivot straight up, and then convert to cruise flight, and from that point, then it utilizes the fixed wings or the fixed wing and tilt architecture for efficiencies in flight, whereas if you did not have the wing, you exert a lot more energy in that forward flight momentum. So this particular aircraft has been in design for quite some time, about 10 years. It's built with complete safety with dual redundancy and, in some cases, triple redundancy. So you'll see that some of the safety features on the aircraft are dual elevons. We put floats on the aircraft, and the FAA gives us a little bit of a weight benefit by doing that. So in the event of a water landing or an emergency water landing, the aircraft will float. Not an intentional water landing. Not an intentional one. And we have tested the aircraft to do takeoff and landings from water, but that's not what the aircraft is designed for. Okay, so across the back here, we've got four propellers. Yeah, you have four motors. Again, with redundancies, there's two batteries per propulsor, as we call it. The aircraft also has radar altimeters below the wings, one on each side. And that enables the aircraft to self-land and also take off automatically. So two different modes of flight there. So you can take off and command the aircraft to go from cruise, I'm sorry, take off the cruise flight, and then take over the aircraft and control it from then. And then when you come down to land the aircraft, you pitch the aircraft in the landing configuration at a 15 feet above ground level, you can program the aircraft to automatically land at that point. So the tricky parts are better done by machines in this case than they are by the... And again, those are the most critical phases of flight of any aircraft. And we try to make that as simple for the pilots. Wow. So it took me a minute to put together that you said E before VTOL, so it's an all-electric. All-electric. That's crazy, that's really cool. The aircraft can be charged on a 120 volt circuit. It'll take about eight hours to charge the aircraft at that point. But there's also a fast-charging option for the aircraft that allow it to, in some cases, charge as low as 45 minutes up to two hours. And then that allows the pilots to get back up into the air and go have fun. I was going to say, I think that's faster than my car. That is... So how long can you fly?  So again, under FAA Part 103, we're limited to 62 miles an hour. So we use 60 miles an hour as the speed. And you said 20 minutes you can fly? 20 minutes or roughly 20 miles. So depending upon where you're flying to, if you're going from point A to point B, then you have terrain obstacles, heavy traffic that you can go around in a relatively unpopulated manner. That's a significant commute opportunity for somebody. Yeah, this could be really interesting. So this is obviously a prototype we're standing in front of. But when do you expect to actually have this in production? The aircraft was announced to sail for the general public about three hours ago. Oh my goodness. For delivery after June 10th. All right, now I've got to ask you, what's the price point on this? The base price is $190,000 with the ultimate package, if you will, $260,000. It's actually a lot less than I expected it to be. So if people wanted to learn about Pivotal, where would they go? They go to pivotal.arrow. And there's a website. If somebody wants to purchase the aircraft, there's a nominal $250 nonrefundable deposit. And then there's a process that flows from there that secures your shipping window date. And then the aircraft delivers beyond June 10th. And are there pilot qualifications for the human? Again, there does not have to be a pilot's certification. We train the pilots. And we've already trained some initial owners, some early adopter owners. And it ranges anywhere from 10 to less hours, depending upon their skill sets and capabilities. In some cases, it might take a little bit longer. Wow. That's really cool. Well, thank you very much, Greg. This is really neat. My pleasure. Thanks for coming.
