Thank you so much for this. I'm 31 and still didn't know how to do this.
You're welcome Ciara. :0)
@@DadhowdoI dude, you rock! this is beyond helpful, keep doing videos when you can - please do videos on how to safely use power tools (drill, saw, nail gun (especially) tnx! :)
Me too,I’m 32 and have no idea. I’m watching all his videos.
@@momentsformoms9467 33, same
I'm nearly 34. I don't even drive. But still useful to know 🤷
I needed this. I needed this whole channel. My dad died 7 months ago, too soon, and I was only 25. I still have so many “dad, how do I?” questions, I always thought he’d be around for all those phone calls (yesterday panicked at this light going off in my car)
I never knew I needed this, but I’m so happy you’ve done it. Thank you!
My dad passed away two and a half years ago (I’m 31 now), and every day I think of things I want to ask him, so I totally feel this comment. This channel is not only super helpful, but it warms my heart!
I feel you, I didn't really know the guy since I was only around 2 at the time (turning 15 in 2 months) and not having someone to ask how to do most things kids would learn from their dad's has been tough, but I think I've been doing okay do far.
Omg your story made me cry 🥺
I feel this comment. Lost my dad 2 years ago. I was only 17 at the time. Some days you will still have questions that only he could answer but it does get better with time!
I understand what you must be going through. My father died of melanoma when i was 17 (now i am 32), and my mother has schizophrenia. So i missed out on a lot of advice and life lessons that i had to learn the hard way. Never be too afraid to ask questions to people. I often struggled with feeling like a failure for not knowing basic things that other people just seemed to know, until i realized the amount you miss out on if you are not able to have casual talks with your parents, or just sit at the dinner table with your family talking about your day or plans. So to anyone who is in a similar position, don't be too hard on yourself for not knowing things. People who do know these basic things that you might have missed out on, most likely learned them from their parents.
Why are people disliking his videos? There should be 0 dislikes. He’s just trying to help those who don’t have dads to teach us these things.
every video gets dislikes for some reason no matter the content
You should do a video what do each of the lights in your car mean... I’m an adult now and I still call my dad when I see an uncommon light in my car pop up 🙄😁
How about you check the car manual
@@chrisu2002 how about you let the man ask his dad for help! youre not wrong, but you are kind of a dick. not to mention that certain light combos mean certain things, but thats mechanics knowledge.
@@chrisu2002 I couldn't find this symbol in my car's manual and had absolutely no idea what it meant for several years.
That’s a tough one. A lot of different car makers do it differently the flashing ones are the ones that are scary
A simple google search will help you a lot, especially forums. And also you should get cool with a mechanic or two.
Im girl live in saudi arabia, we just start driving here about 1 year ago , and I found this video so useful Thanks Alot ! this sign always appear in my car
If I remember women's couldn't drive in Saudi Arabia ?
Monica Ant. They legalized it not too long ago
I hope you have fun driving :)
Alhamdulillah! Being able to drive is so liberating, hope you enjoy it 😉
You go girl!
Never had a dad, and my mom is an addict. So this channel is gonna be a jackpot of knowledge my parents deprived me of.
Many times fathers áre overrated so take that for what it Is. Good luck on the long road yo!

You should do how to change windshield wipers and how to jump a car!
Yes!
Both are pretty easy but just me because I have an understanding of what to do although I’ve never actually done them
@@ajfev1092 Understanding how to do things and actually doing them are two completely different things.
Aside from pumping gas and adding windshield wash, probably the easiest thing to do with adding / replacing something in a car would be replacing the wipers....if you know how to do it. Takes only a few seconds with no tools required. But, if you've never done it or watched someone do it, it can seem a bit complicated.
There are plenty of such videos on TH-cam? just google it :)
He did how to jump a car :)
Thank you so much for making this video. I called the car dealership to ask, if they can check my tire pressure and the man was very rude…Unfortunately I didn’t have a father to teach me. Thank you again.
Thank you dad!! I love these videos as someone who grew up without a father and was never taught any of these things it warms my heart that you are sharing with the world!! Keep up the good work!
THIS IS SO WHOLESOME AND FULL CIRCLE!
Well my dad passed away before i even get born
just another random guy over here mine too
@@razvan1501 damn
The older I get the more I need you videos I appreciate everything you do
I grew up without a dad and everytime I watch your videos I learn but I cry at the same time
Love the dash icon and tire explainations being printed out lmao. Great Job, Dad!
I'm literally 22 and know most of these things but I watch all of these and get emotional.
This is the internet's dad
I never had a male figure to show me things like that and I always struggled with car issues! You’re just my hero! 😭 thank you! 💙
I have an irrational fear of the tires blasting.
ah the ol' tireblastophobia
me too! I just take it to a tire place and they do it for free I just give a tip 😁
You'd have to really overfill them way above capacity. The pressure they are meant to be filled to is way less. You can actually see what the max pressure for the tire is if you look around on the tire. For example my tire for my Z4 is to be set at 32-34 psi while max pressure is 49 psi. If you take your time its really hard to overfill.
while hard to do without a pump ment for large trucks, that blast can very well be deadly. one of my buddies cut his arm open with the inner tube of a bike tire being stupid, and that was just the rubber cutting him
My sisters prius’ tires exploded on the highway during a winter storm soo yeah she said it was terrifying. Definitely keep your tires in check.
Quick note: if you have the tire light on and it doesn’t go away after filling your tires up, there could be three reasons. First you car may require you to reset your Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) which is just the system that keeps track of the air in your tires; you can find that out by looking in your owners manual or looking up if your car requires it to be reset. The second reason could be because one or multiple of your sensors stopped working, which would most likely require a tire shop to fix (which isn’t too expensive $50-$100). Lastly if the light came on after getting new tires, it is possible that the new tires that were installed didn’t have TPMS Sensors on them, which will cause the light to come on.
Hello mate are you able yo help
Thank you for this. I am 57 years old and still struggle with this!
Thankyou so much. You just gives me the fatherly loves i miss because my dad passed away 2 years ago. The loves and the lessons you gave encourage me to grow independently
Pretty emotional right now. I just called a tire shop and the guy asked what kind of tire I had. I said “I’m not too sure” and he cuts me off and says “well I don’t know either and I can’t help you” and hung up. I feel really dumb. I’ve never had a chance to have my dad show me anything car wise and my mom doesn’t drive. I have low tire pressure so I have to go to the rude guys because they’re the closest to me but I feel so stupid like how could I not know what type of tire I have. I called back and nicely explained the type of car I have and just wanted a quote and he told me that’s “super silly.” I’m muscling up all my defeated, stupid feeling energy to go over there. It just brings back so much PTSD of feeling stupid and not knowing basic stuff and getting yelled at. Anyways, thank you for your channel and for showing all of us stuff we never got the chance to learn from dads.
My dad taught me how to change a tire, but didn’t teach me most of this stuff. In the 90s, most of these things were taught to boys not girls. So I’m enjoying tour videos. I can change a tire and check my oil, but anything else with a car I’d love to learn! I think this is amazing what you’re doing!
There's a car guy youtuber under the name ChrisFix and he does as the name suggests fixes on cars and some other stuff so id recommend that, hope that helps
I have a dad who’s loving and supporting that has taught me these things but I’m still watching because this man is so wholesome
Thank you. My dad passed a few years ago and this channel is filled with things I wished I had thought to ask him. You are doing a great service ❤
The printed out photo of the warning light is my favorite part of this ❤️
This guy learned me everything in less than 30 mins and my dad couldn't in 12 years
Thank you for this video and your other ones. I unclogged my bathroom sink and put air into my tire properly thanks to you. My dad is still around but he doesn't show me this stuff.
I was fortunate enough to have an amazing father to teach me these things. You sir are absolutely amazing, and thank you for all you do!
I just want to say thank you, so much, for taking the time to do this. My father taught me so much growing up, stuff about cars, house repairs, etc. Anything I needed to know I would call him. He passed away in January of 2019 and I miss having his guidance for these types of things. It seemed like he knew a little bit of everything! Just recently I had to go to home depot to get a few screws and a new wax ring for my toilet. I dont know anything about plumbing, out of habit I was in the aisle and went to call him without thinking, and it hit me how I have to figure these things out alone now. My mother and I share a two family house, and I've always been the one who has to do the repairs for her, she cant even hammer in a nail,lol. My dad was my go to for things like that and I miss him terribly. Thank you so much for taking the time to make this channel, I truly appreciate it!
I literally have never known how to do this and I'm 32 years old, so thank you SO much. You're awesome Internet Dad!
YOU ARE FILLING MY BRAIN WITH KNOWLEDGE BEST TH-cam DAD EVER
I personally walk around and take all 4 valve caps off of all the tires and walk around with my gauge and read the pressures. If it's fine I put the cap back. Then I know which ones to fill after I get the station to turn it on. As long as you get gas, they must give you free air (at least in California as far as I know).
👍 Great idea explaining tire sizes
Thanks... I think I filled them up unevenly and will do this to avoid having to unscrew them again.
Thank you for this channel!! My dad died 3 years ago and it’s been so hard when I need to ask him something and he’s not there! Thank you!!!!
Heaven Huskey same! so grateful for this channel. my dad was my go to for things like this and I've been lost without him. I live in a two family with my mother and am the one who does all of the repairs, it's been so rough without him around. sorry for your loss 💖
kayle delmastro I’m sorry for your loss girl! It’s definitely hard! I k ow my mom is lost without my dad and she had 3 girls so we’ve been helping out as much as we can!!
Heaven Huskey My parents split when I was young so I've always been the "man" of the house, with guidance from my dad of course lol. They hated each other but he would always help her with repairs by telling me what to do 🤣 it was an interesting dynamic lol. hopefully this channel is able to help you guys, it's so hard to take on the responsibility of doing things like this.
This is so pure! Literally brightened my whole day finding this channel.
Thank you so much for this! My dad is home, but he knows nothing about cars! I had that light on for over a month now, didn't know what to do.
If you are rather nervous to fill your own tires, a lot of auto shops will fill your tires for free. I know Walmart and Firestone will. But these are very useful tools for anyone to know. My hats off to you sir for doing these videos!
I love your videos! I'm 30 and married, but I still have to call my daddy for help with these things! He's a great Dad and I am super blessed to have him, not only living but near me. Happy early Father's Day!!
Thank you for your content!
Just a quick tip I've seen my buddy who works putting tires for a living do; before he put the little cap back on the tire after he's finished filling it with air, he puts some drops of water where you connect the air compressor to check for any air escaping. (I hope what I wrote made sense! :) )
Zero dislikes...perfect as all things should be
Spoke too soon
Now we have 8😑
Anyone who dislikes this video will be banished to the shadow realm
guarantee the people who disliked just saw your comment ahha :P
What a wonderful find! I'm so grateful I found your channel. I have a wonderful dad who would drop everything to help me, but he has a lot on his plate so I feel guilty. I'm glad that I found a place to get quick and reliable answers so I don't have to bug him as often. Thank you!
Wendy Burgett that’s what dads are for they don’t care when it comes to there kids!
Dont be so hard in yourself. From what you are saying your dad will LOVE to Help you, so you are doing a good thing, when you ask him.
Literally stranded at a closed gas station here at 2 in the morning and this video saved my life. Omg. Thank you. Could not figure out the numbers and was afraid of blowing myself up lol
Thank you for these videos. I lost my dad when I was 11 years old to cancer. I didn’t know at the time how hard life was about to be by not having him here. And if anyone else is reading this that has lost their dad, I just want you to know that you are not alone. I know you may feel defeated, but we are all going to get through this. Together.
I just ordered a pressure gauge of Amazon to monitor my tire pressure regularly. Wish me luck...hope I don't have to put air soon, but your video definitely helped in giving me confidence to do it on my own. Thanks Dad!
truly the internet’s dad, I just got this light in my car and was stressing till I remembered this channel
The love I have for this man is unreal.
Before our kids learned to drive, we taught them car maintenance and repairs, changing tires,etc. Now they do all their car repairs, brakes, transmission, belts, etc. saves a lot of money.
This video just saved me, I had no idea how to fill my tires and nobody to help me learn until I found this video.
Thank you for telling people about the door placard for the air pressure. I work at a tire shop and you wouldn't believe the amount of people who inflate their tires to the maximum PSI of the tire that is written on the sidewall of the tire. Do NOT do that people. It's really bad for tread wear and as your tire ages and wears, it's not as strong and can blow out.
Some other tips:
-You can fill the tire fuller than the recommended pressure, just don’t go over the max pressure written on the actual tire. The fuller the tire, the bumpier the ride, but the longer the tire will last. Usually filling it 2-3 units over the amount written in the side panel, like he did in the video, is the way to go.
-If you overfill the tire, don’t worry! Just press the nozzle on the tire to the side and let the air leak out (it will make a hissing noise) and check the pressure again until you get it where you want it.
Hello mate are u able to help
Thanks. My Dad couldn't be bothered to show me any of this. I love your channel.
not only he is good at explaining hes a good dad a real G
Thank you very much I don’t know nothing about cars and I’m a single mother of a son and I never had my dad around so I need to learn this to teach my son! We are going to do this first thing in the morning together 😊
Thank you so much for being a "Dad" guidance for so many of us. My dad died 10 years ago when I was just 17 and I still hadn't learned all of these "Dad" things in life. I truly don't know how I made it through college without "Dad" guidance. I appreciate you and respect what you are doing for all of us with or without Dads. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. What an empathetic "Dad" you must be.
Don’t forget to screw the cap back on your tire when you are finished. Very helpful video, thanks.
Note for metric countries: 1 bar = 100 000 Pa = 100 kPa
I am literally in tears... good tears. Thank you so much for this. I didn’t grow up with a dad and these videos though simple mean the world to me!
Glad i found this channel...asking for help with people who dont feel like helping sucks
you are the father we all love
I just bought my first car at 24. You’ve been saving me from looking silly in front of people
Man i love you no homo, i grew up with out my pops passed when i was 2 everything ik i learned myself and this is most stuff a father would teach you, that i find very essential information needed to know , thank man !
I knew how to do everything in your videos but watched them like you were my dad telling me what to do. My dad ran out when I was born and I would have loved to have had someone like you in my life to guide me. I think I ended up OK, but I promised myself that my son would always know that I was there for him in anything and have done my best to teach him what I know. Your children are very lucky to have you in their life.
Hi I'm just stopping by to thank you for doing this. My dad taught me how to check my tire pressure, but he didn't have a dad to teach him that. The world needs more of your wholesome vibes!! THanks Dad!
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR MAKING THESE VIDEOS DUDE. YOUR THE DAD WE’VE ALWAYS WANTED not all hero’s wear capes you change people’s life’s thank you for these amazing videos.
This is the first of the videos I have watched. OMG I am a 72 year old grandma and I don't know half this stuff. What a blessing. Thank you, Sir ..
Please continue to post these videos when ever time permits you to and you have an idea to.
I needed this in my early 20s and it was hard getting by. You’re going to help so many posting these.
Thank you for taking the time to do this.
I’m so glad you make these vids. Lost my dad at a young age and I haven’t had anyone to teach me
Thank you for what you do! You're an inspiration to me, a recovering deadbeat dad, and I love u for it. Thank youuuu! 🤗❤️🙏
This is so interesting and informational!! Thank you!!
You're welcome Angela. 👍
informative :)
I already knew all this, but I enjoyed watching him explain 😊 my dad passed away when I was 11 years old so I've gotten most of this kind of knowledge from books at the library and more recently google 😅
I just read about your channel and it put tears in my eyes. Thank you
Thank you thank you thank you!!! You are so good at explaining things in detail so we can understand the why behind how we do things. I am so thankful for you taking the time to make these videos.
I watched this video yesterday and today I was successfully able to change my tire pressure!! Thanks for the help man!!! You are loved and appreciated!!
Thank you for this! My dads not a nice man and now lives in Mexico City - I’ve had that light on my car for over a month and could never figure it out until I ran across your TH-cam channel (I didn’t even know that light was for my tire)!! Thank you for your kindness and taking the time to help people without a father figure. I definitely look up to you and hope that you have a happy life :) thank you!
World's best dad!
Not gonna lie to you I got happy tears watching this video I’m 24 and didn’t know how to do this and always been too embarrassed to ask anyone (come on grown man) I never had a dad figure to teach me and i know this isn’t an excuse or anything but thank you man
Your channel is incredible! What a great niche you have found that is so applicable to so many. What may seem like a small thing (creating these weekly videos) is much more than many do for others. Thanks for your videos; cannot wait to see what is in store for the future!
im an 18 year old girl and i recently bought my first car, my tire pressure light came on and i asked my dad to teach me how to put air into my tires and he told me im an idiot because i dont know how to, so thank you for this video. its a real help for people like me whose fathers are complete deadbeats
Thanks man! We use BAR in the Netherlands, but this helped me out a lot.
I like this guy im glad he's teaching how to do stuff like this. I wasn't always able to be around my father growing up(long story). My grandparents raised me,and my grandfather tried to teach me as much as he could when he found out he was dying of cancer so that I would be able to help my grandma out after he was gone. But, he wasn't able to teach me everything a man should know especially the car stuff, and none of the other guys in the family ever taught me either. My great uncle did teach me some things too before he died he taught me how to paint a house or any building properly, how to use certain tools, how to weedeat, and few other things.
Thank you! For this video and this channel. My biological dad walked out on my mom and me when I was 6mo, and later when I was 12yo, my step dad both walked out on my mom, me, and 3 younger siblings too. We have grown up w/o a dad. I'm 20 now, and very lost on a lot of things, but you're helping me out! Thanks!!
You are the absolute best. Thank you for being so considerate. This is just amazing. You deserve the world.
This man right there is the dad of a million gangsters a real G
Thank you so much for your help! Love your channel, I never knew my dad so this video helps a lot. I could’ve googled it but this video has a “dads” touch. 🥰
Thank you so much. This just helped me learn how to put air in my tires while I was at the gas station. I am 32 years old and I’ve never done it by myself.
you have no idea how grateful i am for your youtube, thank you 💖✨
My goodness. I visited your page 12 hours ago after seeing Tank’s post on instagram and you were at 300K. You’re almost at a million now! Well deserved. From the moment I started watching you I noticed your light from within. Your channel is that town built on a hill! God bless. Matt. 5:14
My dad didnt even bother to tell me anything to help my life. This guy is awesome! Thank you so much!
I'm just getting to the point where I need my dad and he left so now I'm stuck alone trying to learn everything so thank you so much
IM HERE BECAUSE SOMEONE POSTED YOUR CHANEL ON FACEBOOK AND IM SO GLAD THEY DID! YOURE AND AMAZING HUMAN. THANK YOU! 💕
Thank you so much for this vid ❤️ grew up without a dad and hadn't a clue . keep up with the videos please
Thanks for this ! Very handy :)
Just so you know, "bar" and "kPa" (kiloPascal) are the standard units of pressure in pretty much all the countries around the world except some like the USA, and 1 bar = 100kPa
Here in France we measure the tire's pressure in bar and on the small-medium cars it's around 2.2 bar or so
Thanks again for all your videos, it's wonderful :)
Also 1 bar is around 14.5 psi !
Something so simple is so helpful!!! Thank you for doing what you do! You’re awesome!
Thank you Rob! Your story also became viral in the biggest Chinese social media Weibo, where I heard about you from. Millions of people are touched by your story. I live in the U.S. now and have access to TH-cam. I want to leave a comment and thank you for doing this. My father left me, my twin sister and my mom when I was 4 because he wanted boys, not girls. I enjoy your videos! I’m learning how to do ties so I can help my husband😹.
My tires are visibly low today, and I don’t have a father figure I’m comfortable asking. So seeing these always make me feel so safe. Now I know how to air up my tires, although I’m terrified of blowing one out on my way home today. Thank you for these videos, truly.
Thank you for this! You’re an amazing human being, God bless you. ❤️
Might also note that if you are checking your pressure it best to check when the tire is cold. Driving will heat the air in the tire causing the pressure to read higher. Great information checking the driver door for the tire pressure.
Thank you so much! Your video was so helpful to me. I am clueless when it comes to anything dealing with a car and your video provided the answers I needed. Keep up the good work.
I have that signal for weeks now and i’ve just got what it means! Thank you sir
You're such a blessing❤ God bless you!
Thank you dad!!! ❤
Thank you! I've always struggled with understanding car stuff and it really stresses me out. I actually feel confident to try now.
My dad wasn't really in my life physically he just gave me money any time I needed or wanted something. I got my first car 6 or 7 years ago and my husband taught me everything I know about cars. What you're doing for people who don't have someone like me is amazing 💕
