Thanks for uploading a video this weekend. Great patience (and skill) on the oil drain plug. "I'm not going to make a mess today"......I think we heard that one before. lol. Beware of a muscular mechanic with a southern accent, wielding a welding torch. Have a great Memorial Day! 😎

I lost it when the damn dipstick broke. You were definitely set up LOL! Genius extraction BTW.

Thank you sir! Took 1 min to engineer 😅

Good video shows how people don't look after their car and how you are able to over come.

simple oil drain plug messed up by fast lube places most likely and not using torque wrench

Yep.

That nut it for sure rounded off! I used to take some rubber from a strap and cut a little bit so that it would bite on the bolt.The vice grip would give a little more of the beans! I'm really enjoying this content man keep it up!

3:15 in right now, with how rounded it is, I wonder if just cutting a line down the center and trying with some flathead + hammer turning would free it. Guess we'll see how you did it. :)

There is so much hanging out you could flatten the edges till a wrench side or create bite for the clamp.

I was elevating the pan with both hands because the jack was in the way of the trajectory. I was planning for 5qts

I had one of those soft metal oil pan plugs round off in 1982 when i was a kid, i hand filed it for 1 hour on two sides flat to get a better gripe...to no avail. Finally drove my subaru to a little town sunday afternoon...old guy called up his friend "Rocky" his real name....to come in on sunday to fix my car...15 minutes later a long-hair motorcycle hippy due, named Rocky shows up....he had problems with the vise gripe too...but 10 minutes later he hammer-chiseled the edge and got it to turn. Rocky rocked...i was scared of the cost, as i didn't know these people, on their turf. They only charged me $10.

That's crazy, lucky rocky got you squared away! $10 got us somewhere back in the 80s I'd imagine lol. So this took about 30 min... plus oil quantity for 2 oil changes, what would you charge for this out of curiosity, throw me a number😅. Mind you, $10 -20 is not an option here lol

Looking ripped brother also man these people be driving death traps

16:00 answers the question why they overfilled the oil :)

Excellent video 👍 👍 👍

15:50 was absolutely hilarious

fax lol. just after you think you;re done too

That is why there was so much oil in the engine. Hope the rest of the dipstick isn't caught up in the crank case somewhere.

That car is SLIMY!

Metal shavings EVERYWHERE

@@partsshooter @8:50...I thought those threads/filaments above the oil pan to the right, but I guess it's just nylon threads on that hose.
