He does say good information, generally. But he at times makes mistakes. For example in this video, he makes a physical error at 1:45. Where he starts "The main reason". Yes, the BTU's in a given fill up in the morning won't change to the afternoon albeit it's expansion, but it does expand! So it follows that an afternoon fill up of 10 gallons has less BTU's then 10 gallons in the morning! (Even though when comparing that same 10 gallons in the afternoon with the little less volume the next morning, BTU's didn't change) So there he didn't know what he was talking about. I hope when he sees this he will make the correction. Regards, Peter.

Another reason to prefer manuals; I once bought a one-owner pickup...for $200. 310,000 miles and about a third of the paint on it when I got it, and 350,000 when the transmission died. Guy had kept good records of the maintenance in the manual, tune ups, oil changes, a long list of miscellaneous parts...and not one mention of ever changing the gear oil. I still felt like I got my $200 worth out of it.

I removed the TC. Cut it open, and saw lots of fin erosion and other metal debris hung up in the trans filter. Bought an HD torque converter from Torco Industries out of Cali for $119 and car now has 87k on it. Haven't had an issue since.

I've actually tested the AC thing. On a 2014 Ford Focus Ti 5 door, you get 1.5 MPG less with AC on and windows rolled up. If you roll the windows all the way down, it loses that minimal 1.5 mpg and can sometimes lose up to 3 to 4 mpg due to aerodynamic drag. Modern AC compressors are indeed more economical than windows rolled down.

I just recently discovered this channel and don't know much about vehicles but am trying to learn and I really enjoy watching Scotty's videos so informative and entertaining not to mention all the money I can start saving by using his mechanical life hacks and learning how to diagnose and fix some of the parts myself. Thank you so much Scotty!

In the early computer days when "floppy disks" were used they had a "lifetime warranty" which didn't mean the lifetime of the user, yeah "scam" but pretty much everyone knew it was.

Got several old chargers, 68-72 models bought them when they were cheap (late 70's) all I've ever done is changed filter and added 1qt of oil, zero engine issues!

If 90% of engine wear happens at Startup, imagine how long engines would last if they designed them to circulate oil when you turned the key first before the engine started.

EW: There are systems called "Pre-oilers" that circulate the oil prior to start. In the past they were used on some large aircraft radial engines. Some large industrial equipment may have them.

I think a lot of oil pumps run off the serpentine belt, so you'd need a secondary pump. Some modern cars probably do this, but I don't know of any. :)

If you have a Ford you can push the gas pedal all the way down, that way it cuts fuel and you can crank the engine until the oil pressure light turns off, then start the engine.

Edmund Witkowski Let me refute Scotty’s comment. If you use say, Mobil 1. It’s been proven how it embeds itself into the metal. Plus residual doesn’t drain to pan. So does Mobil 1 really cause damage at startup? I say no!!!

@@MicahS70T5M I think they run off the crankshaft. That way if, once the engine starts turning, the engine starts pumping.

I really appreciate your videos Scotty. I've been watching them for some time on KZread and I just shared your channel with my niece she could learn about maintaining her own vehicles.

In 1972 I studied auto mechanics in Manhattan. The only thing I leaned was I’m not a mechanic. This was quite helpful.

"If I had a transmission that went out at 60,000 miles I'd come back and strangle ya." Now THAT's a picture, Scotty!

Scotty is the only KZreadr I can look up before lunch, watch a new video, search him after coming back to work from lunch, boom, anotha one

Scotty: I’m a shop teacher here in Toronto, we watch your video all the time

Me: “I’ve got lifetime transmission fluid” Scotty: “Change it” Me: “I’ve got 266kmi on it” Scotty: “Don’t touch it, the transmission will start slipping if you change it.”

If you got 266k miles on it it's been changed or it would be dead and if it's working fine it's ok to change it.

"Put that thing out when pumping gas!" "Hey man, I'm only vaping!" Ha!

You're so practical and logical. The world need more of that. I can't believe some of the things I hear people say about cars.

I love Scotty’s videos. I learn something and get entertained at the same time. Plus being of Italian ancestry, I love watching Scotty wave his arms while he speaks.

Scotty has me dodging and bobbing with all the hand movements, I feel like I’m about to get smacked 🤣

Scotty is definitely one of the funniest mechanics on KZread. Love his videos and honesty. Keep it running Scotty

About cellphones at gas stations. This was tested on Mythbusters and they proved you absolutely right. The problem was people starting to pump gas, getting back in the car during or while using a phone, then getting out again when pump shuts off, it was the static caused by getting in and out of the car that created a spark.

I hope Scotty never dies cause then who are we rely on to tell us all we need to know?

I wonder how many of his neighbors have him check their cars.
