Scott aren't you one of the experts on the internet?

The greatest things I've learned from you is that I don't have to spend thousands on all kinds of useless tools and toolboxes. All I have is a hammer, and I've learned to do brake jobs, engine rebuilds, body work, exhaust systems, and even TIRES just from watching you! I now have a yard full of cars that I've fixed and are just waiting to thunder down the highway once again.

You have no idea Mr. Scott, how thankful I am, for the tips & tricks that you put on here.

Spacely Sprockets, what a great memory from the past. Nice job Scott!

So glad to see you're back. And your front as well

Scott a man with a conscious & pride cares about his Futures customers. Has honour & integrity that’s what’s missing today. Honesty & comical. Sarcasm 👍. Getz the job done rite

"We have trust issues...." thanks Scott for going above and beyond to extract the tears from the haters.

18:18 “Spacely Sprocket”. Great memories!! Meet George Jetson….

I like how you account for your hardware. I made the mistake years ago with a hose clamp. I was replacing the injection pump on a GM 6.2 diesel putting the rubber line in the center of the pump. I started looking for the worm clamp. Couldn’t find it, so I just replaced it with a new one. About three weeks later I’m driving, and all of a sudden I’m getting a nasty metal banging sound. At that time I knew where that friggin clamp went! Pulled the intake, and found the band part of the clamp sitting on the valve. Pulled the engine and removed the cylinder head, and found the screw imbedded in the piston. I ended up buying a complete military surplus 6.2 from a guy In Utah, and converted everything to a 6.5 turbo diesel configuration. Lot more peppy, yet still a dog! I learned from that day that fu%#ups are expensive! Ended up rebuilding the 6.2 and using it in a different truck. Those 6.2-6.5s are getting scarce, and with the Webb cracking in the blocks, it’s hard to find good cores to build!

I just bought a repair manual for my truck! Super giddy! 😂❤ Thank you 😊

Great video Scott, and happy to have you back on the channel!

My former boss bought a 2.4L equinox with 112k miles. He had it 3 months and oil light came on and it gernaded. Middle of 2020 and couldnt get parts, no warranties on oil rings, only TSB. He waited a year and sourced an engine 2 states away.

Great video. The demonstation using a spare engine was helpful and informatative for anyone attemting such a repair project.

Love your work Scott. Appreciate the extra effort on your part to show the timing chain replacement.

From my Father, who actually built up several aircraft: If all else fails - Read the Destructions! Ironic that I ended writing "repair manuals" for a living, but all my disassembly write-ups were from first-hand tear downs. Guess I listened to him, eh what?

Plastic on top of plastic. Another brilliant engineering idea from General Motors. Thanks Scotty

Good to see you back😊

Thanks for the video Scott.

Going above and beyond to demonstrate something……very nicely done!👍👍🙂

37:15. When he removed the taillight it revealed a piece of tape flopping around on the frame. It is supposed to block rain water from leaking into the cargo area. There is no drain back there and so it will pool up around the spare and make your Terrain moldy. I had to take both of my rear lights off (I didn't use a mallet) and cover the hole up with tape and sealer.

Love your videos, one of the few that I'm subscribed to, that I don't skip ahead in the video. 😁

Nice to have u back. Missed your videos, and this one is really good

The detail was awesome glade to see you back after a long work week I look forward to these videos please keep them coming any content is welcome Thank you !!!

Had a 2011 Terrain. Coming back from Florida to Pa. It gave intake and exhaust position codes. Sent it in for oil consumption. Long story short. I found the TSB from GM it wasnt checked when in for annual inspection. I paid $60 fpr the oil change and not rhe $4500 for new chain, guides, cam phasers, and piston rings. GM thought the same spec rings were good for direct injection as natually aspirated. Scott thanks for sharing. Stay safe and be well. God bless Bro!

WOW, Gratuitous, very impressed Scott.....

Scott .. im glad to see you're back to actually hands on 😂..lol that copart swindle sellers commentary was monotonous.. i see that stuff every day..

Nice video Scott, I have all the faith in the world that you did the repair correctly. It was a blast seeing the job from the truck box. I know for the average guy like me, if I needed that job done, I’d have made an appointment. Yes, do the trans when time allows. Have a great weekend!

Great video content Scott!! Thank you!

Nice tutorial scott, great to see you back fixing engines again, the rebuild posts are good but actual repair and seeing how to do it is so therapeutic well for me anyway perhaps not for the guy on his driveway trying to get it done, super post

Welcome back. Hope you find a nice new shop sooner then later

Great video ! I love the GM ecotecs, great engines and easy to work on. And great cars to flip, done a bunch, keep up the good work !!

perfect timing I got a 13 equinox I'm doing one on with the rear main seal while its out on Sunday.

Another Awesome Video!! All The Best Brother!!

Looking forward to the body work videos. Look for your videos every week.

Hey Scott,just to let you know I'm still watching hope you find a shop soon, I hear winters in Chicago are nasty thanks for your advice🤗😎🤗😎

Great tip about and discount for e-manual.

Nice job. Hope the new owner gets many miles from it.

Excellent! Thank you.

Scott, thanks for the extra effort and time to show what was happening on the donor engine. Clearly on these modern engines that is hardly enough room for you to see what you are doing let alone room for a camera and lighting. Much appreciated... always enjoy your vids.

I like the Mr spotty shirt with one exception......TeeSpring ......my experience with them is wear them 2x and throw them away! ....very cheap materials for a Stealership price!

Nice job Scott. I hope the Terrain went to a good owner.

Love all the “internet expert” references lol, its wild that GMC calls for 42psi in the tires and my explorer calls for 28psi. I had 35 in them (max 44) and it rode like it had 4 seized shocks, dropped them to 28 and rode a lot better but still stiff as a wagon with all new shocks, ball joints, sway bar end links etc

Great video.

Definitely a lot more involved in doing a timing chain than doing a timing belt. I hope I never have to do a timing chain!!! It's bad enough doing timing belts.

Nice Jetsons reference.

Oh the joys is modern cars!

in the 70s I worked at a buick dealer I used a 3foot with a flex and a impact to pull the plugs out I was a young kid and it drove the old timers nuts but within a year i was top booker

Take the transmission apart. I look forward to Fridays watching your usual stuff, I’ll take what you have for now!

Man this reminds me my car really should get a timing belt soon. I only paid $1k for it like 5 years ago and I always forget that doesn't mean I could replace it for that

This is why I don’t like front wheel drive cars,especially older models.maintenance if lacking usually runs up the repair bill.that’s my opinion only.nice tutorial on the timing chain replacement.great video as always.just continue doing what you do best.hope repair to shop is coming along.😎😎😎👍👍👍

excellent so glad you are back did you get a new shop or your own location , you are the best

I did the timing chain ,guides and gears in an 04 Nissan Quest 2 years ago. I was told the engine needed to come out. Flat out LIE. The timing chain guides break off and causes chain slap, eventually skipping timing and scrap. It was not fun, but not terrible. I did buy a factory manual on CD and put everything on paper and had it right with me during every step. That van is still on the road today, even though I sold it. It was in mint condition and less than 100k on it when I purchased it. It was a nice van, still is.

So happy to see you back again. Sorry to hear about and see what happened to your shop too. Did they ever find the cause of the fire? lmk.

would be cool to see a scrapping video

Most excellent....👍

Great info Scott. We have 115k on our 13 Equinox LTZ so im sure it will be something to do eventually. Ours has burned a couple of quarts between oil changes the past 20k or so.

@grabasandwich

12 күн бұрын

My 14 LT has about 63k on it (wife mostly drives it to work) And I think it's already burning oil and clatters on startup, So could be a chain and bad tensioner? Some people claim lack of maintenance causes it, but The way Scott talks about it here, it sounds like it's truly a major design flaw. I should probably dig into mine before it breaks. But money's tight so I'll probably drive it till it breaks 😖

@trbstang

@@grabasandwich yes, it has to be a bad design. I get emails on the new cars at the pick a part yards and the 6 or so yards on my list get like 5 or so Equinox in a week. Almost none of them are wrecked, so they are all probably blown engines.

JETSON!! Is that the ‘Free Mr Spotty’ t shirt after his recent incarceration? Lol

Yeah, let's tear the trans apart. Nice Mr Spotty shirt. I hope you have a supervisor shirt also so he doesn't feel left out. Thx!!

Thank you for all of your teaching. I'm sorry that you have to pay attention to the haters. You are a genius. As a basic question, do you think whether a vehicle has a timing chain versus a timing belt should influence one's decision as to which vehicle to purchase. Kind Regards. Craig
