About this episode

The episode discusses the importance of visual learning through a personal story about repairing an engine.

Several years ago, I had purchased an old pickup with engine problems; the plan was to do a quick repair and sell it, and make some profit. I read a few articles about the process, and a couple mentioned a ‘trick’ that would save me quite a bit of time when replacing an internal engine part. Thinking I understood what the article meant and confident I could figure it out if I needed to, I jumped in and started disassembling the motor. When I got to the part where I planned to use the ‘trick’ mentioned in the article, though, I was stumped. It could not work! The parts were worn, everything was dirty and oily, and my old fingers simply couldn’t make things work. I re-read the articles, and even pulled out the factory manual for help – nothing helped! Finally, I turned to YouTube, an online video site, and punched in a title that I thought would help. It took a few minutes to find the right video, and I finally found one that discussed the ‘trick’ I was looking to use. The mechanic's voice-over made it seem really simple. After he got the light and the camera, he performed the trick – it was an amazing feat! Just like the article said, when you got your fingers in the right place…
