Nowadays, I do engine/car related videos, with other random content thrown in. I primarily work on my two 1999 Saturn SL's
This channel was originally created in January of 2019. My early videos were narrated by a squeaky 13-year-old that rambled about the most random stuff. I have taken down some of my older videos for several reasons. I want to preserve the history of the channel, so I left a few classic videos up. On January 13, 2024, I changed the channel name from Romeo Cat 128 to "RC128" for simplicity sake.
I run two other TH-cam Channels, both with many more subscribers than this one. Romeo Cat Computers was also created in 2019, and today has nearly 800 subscribers. It has videos about wireless/radio, electronics, electrical wiring, and computers. Brookings Rail Watch is my other channel, and it focuses on trains and railroad stuff. Romeo Cat 128 was the original channel.

Running a 350 on Hopes, Prayers, and a Lot of Ether - S10 350 Swap

Ryan is swapping a Chevy small block 350 into his 2002 S10. His last few V6 engines have gone bad, so he wants to replace them with a V8. This video shows some of the testing he did after he finished rebuilding the motor. I have not been documenting the whole project, but I will probably talk more about it in a future video. www.kf0cci.net
Running Snow Blower on Isopropyl Alcohol and More

The local expert and I mess with two small engines in my yard. First, a 7.75 hp snow blower. Because we were out of gas, we experimented with running it on 91% isopropyl alcohol. Then we fire off an old lawn mower that I couldn't get to work. We ran it on propane for a short time until a clog in the fuel system broke loose and it started running on its own gas.

After having some fun fixing up my Saturn, my friend bought a cheap SL2 with 211,000 miles and some transmission problems. Over the course of two months, we get parts from junk yards and improve its condition before selling it. The transmission valve body solenoids were going bad, so we acquired another valve body from the 1998 SW2 at Wes Auto Salvage. We also replace the drivers seat and a few...

Nice
Hello, "RC128" I was analyzing your channel and saw that in your channel have some problem, That's why your channel is not much growing and not getting much engagement, If you can solve these problems, Your channel will grow like a storm. If you tell I can tell these problems. Where can I tell? Here or ig or where?
Better than i expected 🤣 im dealing with just as bad in a 2007
Nice one!
WD40 Contact Cleaner would work well in this situation.
I had a 78 f150 that had the same issue when I first got it
i like your choice in cars and music lol, excited to see this series!
"¿Dónde Está el FOUR DOLLA TUBA?" - Regular Car Reviews, 1997 SC2 Review
Amazing video
Parts are going to be hard to find on this rare gem.
Many parts are actually available and in stock locally in such places as O'Reilly's.
Gee whiz , first time seeing anything like this 🤣
Yyyeeeeaaaahhh its definitely the all but unstoppable 4.3 fault and not user error.... Oh sorry, TWO 4.3s. . . Yea, i dont think ur gonna make anything last there bud, gl
Go take a look anywhere online or ask people who’ve been working on vehicles for quite a bit of time. 4.3 vortec rod knock is a fairly common thing. I’ve talked to people who’ve been turning wrenches longer than I’ve been alive and they all have said they’ve seen it plenty of times.
So you're telling me that the same two cylinders failing every time has nothing to do with the engine?
I can see why the other motors failed on you
The motors didn’t fail because of my somewhat questionable choices, they failed due to a design flaw.
Exactly my thoughts, lmao
Suspicious little man
Great video!
waiting for the cliff saturn nice content bro
Was this just open downpipe? Or massive exhaust leak 😅
Pretty sure it was a massive leak
@@romeocat128 nice, did you get the car sorted?
@@WillJacksonNW I don't know. I haven't visited this friend in a while.
Keep it up! I really love the content!
It's screaming for the sweet release of death
🤦♂
Good progress
do you have the link to the radio screen he has
0:37 uhm sir your can’t park there
Inspect the exhaust system as well
Why, its a garbage car, only slightly better then a kia.
Had 1998 Saturn Sl2. Greatest car I ever owned for the 2 years that I had it....
This is a great video. I really enjoyed the background music, it wasn’t overpowering or sound like some lame generic dubstep. Your narration is Huey Long status. Thank you!
Sorry, I meant Huell Howser* LOL
I had a 2000 SL2 and it was a fantastic car, especially after getting some quality sport tires. I seriously regret trading it in for my first Subaru WRX 20 years ago. Having AWD is nice, but weirdly I still enjoyed the Saturn a lot more as it had more low-end power and felt more nimble.
great video, love seeing these saturns get some love!
I sold Saturns for five years at Saturn of Gurnee in Illinois. They were good little cars. I had a sl2 with 180,000 miles and it was more reliable than my new Pontiac Gran Prix at the time. I drove past the abandoned Saturn dealership about 6 months ago. I pulled in and walked around the building a bit. It brought back a lot of good memories but was heartbreaking seeing the building in such disrepair now.
My dad bought his 1999 SL2 brand new from Saturn of Frederick, MD. It has around 106,000 on it and it has fallen apart a bit due to lack of maintenance. Now that I do these repairs, I will get around to bringing it back into good order. Anyway, I found the picture they took of him with his new car surrounded by Saturn employees. I like Saturn cars not only for their simplicity and reliability, but also because of the company that they were. He received letters from Saturn even after we moved to South Dakota, and they weren't spam; just friendly updates about what was going on with the company at the time. It was sad when I got to the latest letters from 2009 and 2010 where they had to break the news that they were going out of business. My dad was actualy considering buying a VUE but unfortunately waited too long. Oh and I forgot to mention in the video that this particular Saturn had about 212,000 on it. I also bought myself a 2000 SL2 a while back that I've been working on for a video. It isn't near ready yet but it's coming along. It has 166,000.
@@romeocat128 I will sub now to make sure I don't miss a thing.
I have no reason to watching this, other than TH-cam thinking I'd like it. And by George, TH-cam was right.
Cool
this is so slay
A video involving yet another Saturn, this time from Sioux Falls will drop at some point. It was “fun” to work on.
12 hours of work just to get the engine running
Can't wait to see the ION.
My favorite was the idiot cop telling everyone to move back so they wouldn’t get hit, only to get hit himself! Now that’s the definition of a DUMBASS!
PENN CENTRAL
Do yk what causes the smoke I’m having the same problem mainly cold starts
I'm not totally sure, maybe replace some gaskets.
Hi, will you be going back there anytime soon? I'm super interested in parts from that gen1 coupe.
Well, it depends on what part it is and where you live, but I might entertain the idea. My email should be on my channel page.
Look at all of those beautiful Saturns! Amazing!
Do you know if the person who owns the cars in this yard sells Saturn parts from them? I'm looking for some hard-to-find items for my SL1 and L300. Thank you.
I think you can call them and order them to get a specific part, but it would cost more money. I would go to there website for more details. rohnersautoparts.com/
@@romeocat128 Thanks! That's a good idea, I will try contacting them. 👍🏼
I really liked this video ! I subscribed hope you keep making videos. Also I bought 02 sl2 last week
Gold or green Redline Vue you skipped past quickly
I never really liked Saturns, but I love seeing someone with the passion to keep these quirky cars on the road.
i got excited hoping this was a new robot cantina, great video though
75 Saturns…… I’d be leaving broke lol
Nice to see that you are taking care of the car and it looks good clean. My car is 45 years old so many many things have been replaced over the years simply because of age and not functionality. Video of the car at my channel.
Should do the entire junkyard.
It's would take a 30 part video series to do that
