"Jeep Ducking" : The act of placing a rubber duck on someone's Jeep—called Jeep "ducking" and/or "Duck Duck Jeep"—began with one person, named Allison Parliament, from a small town in the Canadian province of Ontario. She unknowingly started a movement of kindness, fellowship, and recognition with that first rubber duck she placed on a Jeep.
Allison's reason for perching a little yellow duck on a Jeep Wrangler just like hers that she saw in a parking lot was simply to bring herself a small sense of joy after a frightening verbal and physical encounter with someone earlier in the day. Two years later, that single gesture has morphed into the Jeep ducking craze that has swept throughout the Jeep enthusiast community in the United States as well as in nearly a dozen other countries around the world. What does it mean if you've been ducked? “I think it's essentially like giving someone a flower, to say I just appreciate what you got going on, and keep it moving,” said Ward. If you have one, it means you've been 'ducked. ' If you get one, the kind gesture means someone likes your Jeep, or just wants to put a smile on your face.
Ray you were talking about hoping your customer didn’t make this repair and making fun of them. I kind of had the same thing happen. I am a mobile heavy equipment, tech, and I drive everywhere. Well in Atlanta traffic, I didn’t road rage, but I was discussed with someone driving near me. They cut me off. I was mad wanted to tell him how bad the driver they were. But I didn’t. Then I realized when I pulled into my first job, it was my customer. After that I am very careful who I externalize my anger towards. 😅
Ray, I know that Jeep is not your favourite, but in Australia mechanical support and knowledge how to do it is sadly lacking. If you buy a Jeep here you either buy 2 so whilst one is broken down and you are trying to figure out the faults, there is a spare vehicle to drive. Jeep dealers are the least knowledgeable mechanics and YouTube is the first advice you look for. Jeep Australia is the second worst company here for warranty claims so going to them for any support isn’t worth it. Please consider doing more on Jeeps to help us out. Thanks
Once upon a time…open hood, an engine block, carburetor, exhaust thingies. Unbolt things, put in new things. Close hood. 289, slant six…..WTF HAPPENED !!! Intake air temp sensor !!!…..Glad all my tools got stolen 20 years ago, I'd just make trouble with them now. God bless the Rainman.
Sorry Ray, but your choice of transitions in this video does not work for me, it's like there is a sudden stop and start. Not up to the same standard f your previous transitions. Later transitions much smoother.
@RainmanRaysRepairs I noticed that you didn't mention one of the most common issues of the Pentastar engines, the rockers arm failure which causes a ticking noise and after a while it destroys the camshaft lobes. I hope this is one of those items that you check but don't bother to film.
Ray does his editing must have been hammered 🎉😂
welp he's got all the rust protection he'll ever need.
If you can't see it, it don't need to be tite!! 🫣🤯
Another great video Ray, unfortunately your editing skills are lacking on it. Keep up the good work buddy.
Thinking someone tried the old '1/4 turn of the valve cover bolts to stop the leak' trick. Which doesn't work in modern cars, obviously.
What a scrap car to work on! so much unnecessary work to achieve your goal.. I'm glad not to be an owner of this brand..
That engine is absolute trash. So many known issues yet they keep producing that junk.

I know a jeep guy that just chucks the ducks across the parking lot he finds on his vehicle.
I'm waiting to see if you check the cam( sprockets ) and lifters and followers
What a crappy inappropriate use of plastics in an engine.

My big mouth forced me to retire.
Just think Ray, If the engineers who designed this unit are thinking about all the cool tools you could buy to work on it

Either I'm having a stroke, my Internet connection is spotty or Ray Fingled the editing.
Why would anyone buy one of these? Terrible ride and a pain in the butt to work on!
Champion plugs suck…
Why does the video lock up and then go to black and hang?
Welcoming back!
JEEP: Just Empty Every Pocket, it's a JEEP thing!

You're definitely the man that car need to live longer !
It's a Jeep thing. Even the video editing is f'ed up.
Isn’t a V6 in a Jeep a sacrilege? Shouldn’t it have an I6?

So a jeep is the Harley of the car world i guess
I was expecting that bolt to be missing, versus being loose. 😉
Thanks for the time saving edits! I like!
Love that "Gravity!"
Why do people buy, jeeps, They are piles of shit
