Hey scotty! The new CVT in the new 2019 Kia forte models, in specific the ex launch edition is a beauty!! Have had mine a couple months and it feels completely different than nissan/ hundai/honda crap cvts, review their video on the new transmission and its practicallity or just your opinion on this new design?! Keep it up Scotty :)
Cool Video's Scotty, A+
What happened to the thermal imaging Blackview phone video?
Scotty Kilmer please my Asx Mitsubishi 2012 not displaying gear on the screen PRND ... display transmission require services and the gear I could not hear when changing or not what is the problem thank you
What about GM air pump "Smog Pumps"?
I swear this dude pulls 2 to 3 lines before he makes a video lol great video tho
😂😂😂😂
A little coke never hurt nobody.
Scotty is a psycho genius! LOL
2 to 3 shiieeet he killed the whole sack.
No, this is the result of Americas coffee (METH). I'd gladly clean his garage for him for a teener.
Scotty might be the only person who can make people laugh while discussing the history and chemistry of the "extinct" EGR valve.
EGR's are alive and well in all HD diesels after 2007.
Yes, the only one who will make you laugh when he presents you the bill for the reality of your behicle.
@@WiseWarriorsPath2"Behicle?" Either you missed the 'v' key, or your first language is Spanish.
He can make stupid people laugh, I guess.
I all ways called the EGR valve a Educated Guess Reversed, because the companies that build them don't know what they are used for just another expensive part that the car don't need, and if you ever see Burned up Grass on side of the interstate that is a broken down Catalatic converter that started the fire and some times start Forest Fires.
Mr. Kilmer I just want to thank you for the awesome content. I have learned more about cars from watching just a few of your videos then I have in my entire life. Your presentation as a content creator is absolutely tremendous! Totally informative, right to the point, but done with a good sense of humor. Thanks again man, keep up the good work!
I had a couple cars with EGR issues. An even easier trick is to cut out a rectangular section of a soda can, loosen the bolts holding the EGR on, and slide that piece of can to cover the hole leading into the EGR. Then tighten the bolts back up and you are good to go!
Exactly what I always do
do you leave the egr valbe plugged in? Assuming yours is electric instead of vacuum controlled?
@@decifal They were vacuum. I don't think it would make a difference, but I have never dealt with or seen an electric egr.
Is this a safe alternative or does it have some side effects that come with it?
@@volcaz3729 side effects are...it will throw a code for your egr not working properly and you will fail smog with it like that. But other than that, I ran it for years with no issues. It even gave slightly better throttle response.
Scott, my Dad had a shop in Hayward California in te late 60's and early 70's. He also drag raced. He used to charge $35. To remove the smog pump, and other pollution equipment. Used brass plugs in the exhaust manifolds. He would guarantee better gas milage and more power. He is in Heaven since 2017
Actually EGR (Exhaust Gas Recirculation) Valves were introduce on most US cars starting with the 1973 models, two years before the catalytic converters. Exhaust Gas Recirculation dilutes the air/fuel mixture, thus lowering the combustion temperature which in turn reduces NOx emissions. The downside was reduced horsepower and fuel economy. In 1975 when the catalytic converters were added, the EGR Valves were redesigned to circulate less exhaust, shifting much more of the NOx control to the catalyst. The EGR Valves were never used for catalyst temperature regulation.
But the EGR valves in modern cars do definately regulate exhaust temperature for proper emission control
He's on about modern type egr valves, clearly
This is partially true. In diesel engines, the EGR valve reduces midrange power and fuel economy by a small margin. In gas engines, EGR can actually improve fuel economy by reducing pumping losses at cruising load and some car companies actually used EGR valves to cruise at a lean AFR. In neither engines will EGR reduce peak power because the valve will be fully closed.
Scotty..I'm a young mechanic at 24..ive been going hard fixing vehicles for 5 years now learning to fix vehicles ...and now doing serious mechanic work such as engine swaps ect.. and you give great information.. and advise ..an informed customer is a wonderful customer ... I may know some things . But .its always great getting a refreshment of certain knowledge especial from such wisdom ..that may be lost ... lol your the man and keep being awesome..and thank you!!
Kudos to you for saying "an informed customer is a wonderful customer". I like to work as a team with my mechanic.
Did you go to school?
But Scotty says don't rotate your tires
Another pro lesson....never get tired of your expertise !!! Thanks SCOTTY
Thanks for the lesson on EGR valves Scotty.
Thank you for explaining the EGR valve. I have just inherited my late father’s Skoda and a warning light sometimes comes up that is most likely the EGR valve and I had no idea what it was or what it did.
This video has explained so much and I am no longer cautious about getting it looked at as I had previously thought it was too much expense to make my dad’s 2002 Skoda Fabia worth fixing, yet I want to keep it going as a memory to him - a truly wonderful guy and brilliant father that I owe everything to.
my old caravan always threw up the egr code and my mechanic friend told me to not even worry about it as it does not harm to the engine. since then i have always ignored that code in all my vehicles.
Scotty, you can't retire. The world needs you now more than ever!!! Much love to you scotty.
Scotty you nailed it😂 you have a way of explaining things, in other words. I'm picking up what you're laying down keep up the good work!
Scotty!!!! I have heard E.G.R valves explained in thousands of ways and my own. You did it better then I have ever heard. GOOD JOB.
Scotty reminds me of my dad, almost exactly. It’s great.
On the cars from the 70,s first thing we would do ..remove EGR..cut off the Catalytic converter’s run true dual exhaust change the distributor springs..shift kit..reroute the stock breather intake and install aftermarket air filter..few hundred dollars worth of parts would really make a difference on a GM 350 or 400.. car ..enough for a high schooler at the time
I LOVE your videos! I never knew what an EGR valve was... but in 10 minutes... you explained it the way only an expert can... a lot of information with less words!
and you believe it ... without checking otherwise? i bet you DID NOT understand it.
DeeDee,
the problem is that Scotty doesn't fully understand what the EGR valve does either.
I suggest you aquire your automotive education from more credible sources...
@@lees.4084 👎
On American cars, the EGR valves were introduced in 1973, and the catalytic perverters (not a typo) were introduced in 1975. We used to gut the perverters to reduce exhaust back pressure. With GM's, you could dump out the pellets.
Those systems were crude as hell. By the late '70's, they had even the once mighty V-8 engines so stopped up, they sounded like they had asthma, wheezing and sputtering around -- no power, crappy fuel mileage. The cars from '75-'85 had few redeeming qualities.
Scotty doesn't like GM, but in the mid-80's it was GM that first stepped up with the renaissance US vehicles, like the 5.0 TPI V-8 and the 3.8 Turbo SPFI that brought the fun back to motoring.
I think I just got 2nd hand high just from watching this video... he’s smart, I could barely stay on track just by listening to him... he must has amazing people in editing his in order to take all his info and turn into something we can understand! Love Scotty and his ability to explain and get me that little dizzy feeling that makes us giggle like if you stand up too fast... and we all know what I’m talking about too...
Scotty your knowledge amazes me! In my searches for various repair information on my 2001 Grand Marquis, I always hope that you will have done a video on the specific thing that I’m looking for because I know that if you’ve got a video on it, I can trust the advice! You’re a good man!
What is the knowledge you are seeking my friend, I have ⁰7
Back in the 70's we'd simply disable the EGR valve by sticking a BB in the controlling vacuum hose and then plug the hose back on. It "appeared" normal but effectively defeated the system.
Wow, I forgot all about that.
Those where the good old days
@Big AL I'm probably a kid to you but I realized exactly your statement the other day.
I'm pushing 47 but still mentally 12 or so...maybe mid teens on a good day,so maybe that's the best of both worlds ?
I just installed a solid aluminium plate between the EGR and the manifold.... never worked after that....
I never knew that!
That's awesome!
I've been looking for over 2 years now, and now you decide to tell me. Thanks a lot Scotty Kilmer.
First video that you got me with, that you were telling me three things in maintenance before you retired,, I'm glad you are still here ❤️👍blessings
Scotty you educate me evry time i watch you videos i save money and my vehicule runs great keep up deducting us on the mechanics of our vehicule your THE MAN CANT THKS YOU ENOUGH
I remember hearing about grass fires being started by those red-hot catalytic converters.
It still happens when you get the cat hot and park over dead dry grass
@@HouseCallAutoRepair or a pile of dry leaves
You have a witness here!
Still happens, there's a YT vid of a Police Charger starting a fire after high speed chase.
On older trucks you would remove them for offroad use.
Another great video, Scotty! The EGR valve does cool things down for the catalytic converter, but it predates the old "honeycomb in a can". My '73 Plymouth Duster with the slant 6 had one (as did many other pre-EGR valve cars). Also had a habit of getting carbon buildup, so I had to remove it every so often to clean it and the passageway. Sure was an easy job with the intake and exhaust manifolds being right on top of each other.
If you take the EGR valve and Black, both of the holes, going to the intake and exhaust and then the water is not connected, will give you a check engine light or ruin your Cadillac converter
I had a plush 1971 Dodge Dart. 318 V8. To my knowledge nothing on it. I sold it to a friend and his wife totaled it out in weeks.
Ah, the old Slant 6 engine. We owned a Dodge Dart and Plymouth Duster. Great engine.
@@newjohn4201 I remember my old girlfriend's Dodge Dart from the 70s. Manual everything; I remember her biceps were bigger than mine. The windshield washer was even a squirt bellows on the floor next to the high-beam switch. These cars never broke down until they were totaled in an accident. Why can't we make "starter cars" today like starter houses? Give young people a break!
@@themagus5906No, those times days months years ago are over and been over. The greed, selfishness took over.
Feel like I'm watching a Toyota sales commercial, every time I watch one of Scotty's videos. Lol
ive come back to his videos cause i just bought an old lexus and he looves toyota/lexus loll
Typical mechanic. They love the cars they don’t have to bother with too often. And Toyota fits the bill.
@@jimmiles33sometimes when all you do is work on cars all day everyday. The last car you want to be fiddling with your own. Especially the older you get
Isnt that what these videos are?
He's not wrong I love my Toy.
Thanks for that Scotty. Very helpful, I didn't realize the EGR was for lowering combustion temp, what a ridiculously stupid idea. Glad they've figured out better ways.
Note to self: remove and examine EGR valve on '92 SC400. Thanks for the tip, Scotty!
Remove EGR on 1uzfe engine ..... 10 OHM resister plugged into the 2 wire egr connector to avoid engine light
You crack me up! My husband and I enjoy watching your channel!
all I had to see was illegal mod and I clicked.
When I went to buy an older used Chevy truck with a Durumax diesel in it I got a 2003 with the LB7 because it was the last year before they put the EGR system on, plus it doesn't even have a catalytic converter and I actually have an Edge Jammer Exhaust System on mine that's 4" pipe all the way down from the turbo with only a straight thru muffler on it. Even so I never have an issue passing emissions! Plus with no EGR system nothing is getting clog up with soot and malfunctioning and with no catalytic converter nothing on the exhaust system is glowing lol!
I always wondered about those egr valves, no one could explain their purpose, until now, thanks Scotty 👍
But he got it wrong.
EGR purpose is to cool down combustion chamber in low load, so thermal NOx-es arent created. Catalytic converter doesn’t create NOx cause theres No O2 gas to combine with N2 gas in cat.
So, scotty is nice, but he’s No oracle.
@@tomaszk8037 It creates them when it overheats. It's not meant to create them, but the overheating made it pollute worse than with no converter.
Damn I waited to the last 30 seconds of the video to find out I don’t even have one on my car LOL love your videos though, you rock Toyota man
A automotive history lesson in less than 11:00 minutes. Lovely!
Honesty!! I like it! No intimidation teaching!
Our daily history lesson. Buy a 94 Celica or come up on the losing end of a short stick.
Great historical lesson, thanks uncle Scotty!
Had to find Scotty to get the whole story, thank you for your service sir
I listened and watched the whole video, it’s 2 hours later and I can still hear him lol!
I like to believe that this guy is secretly a manager at Autozone.
“What fukin part do you need? And no you can’t replace you’re fukin windshield wiper in the parking lot!”
Autozone should be so lucky !
This guy is the best teacher I’ve seen in a long time .Great job
Very informative. Always had a vague idea what they did, now I know specifically. Thanks
Sweet! More to know about an EGR valve than I would have thought possible.
The catalytic converter = external combustion engine.
It gets hot because of unburned fuel. The hotter it gets the more inefficient the internal combustion engine.
Your Celica still has EGR in the video. Maybe because you know how crappy it would run without it. Intake cams with VVT open early when computer demands it so that some of the exhaust is still in the cylinder so they achieve the same level of exhaust, inert gas as you would with an EGR so it is the same principle. Cats are supposed to run hot, manufacturers are trying hard to get them to warm up faster with new tricks. The glowing ones were plugged not due to EGR or lack of as a 3 way catalyst that takes care of NOx did not exist back in the days you speak of.
Scotty. The realest car guy on TH-cam. I love this guy! 🚗
Love this dude smartest guy on TH-cam he knows more about cars than we ever will we appreciate your knowledge brotha
Hey Scotty I have an idea to maintain optimal oil quality for cars that use oil for hydraulic function. A dual oil supply system. One oil supplies to the variable valve timing, the hydraulic lifters, and the chain tensioner. The other supply is for the crankcase and cylinder wall. There a way that these two supplies can be separated so you can use specialty oil for the hydraulic demand elements 0w16. For the crankcase use 0w30 for long-term wear. The traditional oil change function of the crankcase oil would stay the same 3000 miles change filters. The other oil supply would be a closed separate system and be expose to the abuse the crankcase oil is subjected to. You may have long change intervals and the oil condition should be like the close system of the oil in an automatic transmission. Another technology that work well with this concept is Freevalve. Also the sumpless oil technology can also aid in developing this dual oil supply concept.
I just discovered you Scotty, and subscribed. Now your retiring!?! I've missed a ton of neet stuff! Hopefully you keep your TH-cam so I can watch all the back vidios! Good luck 👍! Stay active at your own pace, and take care of yourself. When I retired I envisioned relaxed days, and lots of time for my hobbies. Old saying is true, "didn't know how tired I could get untill I Re-tired!" LoL!! Best wishes to you, and remember to set aside time for yourself, it's really important! Lol 😁!
Very informational, allways herd of them, but never new what they did. Remember as a kid, Dad asking Mr. Nobble what he was doing on a car. He removed the catalytic converter and broke out the honey comb inside with a hammer and pipe and then they broke off the flap in the filler neck. Did not know at the time what he was doing it for, but it was in the 70's when leaded was being changed to unleaded gas. Also, remember fixing small wrecked cars, chevette's, vega's, honda's, ect and every one had the plastic smog bottles cracked and the smog pumps all bent up. THE GOOD OLD DAYS ~THANKS FOR VIDEO
Woah! New camera looks great! Everything is crystal clear. 👍🏾
Scotty with his Toyota stories reminds me of this coworker who was telling every single guy at work how wonderful his daughter was, who he was trying to marry off.
Probably had an ugly daughter and was trying to give her some help in life.
They all juat took test drives - driving like you do in a rental.
Thanx Scotty... Egr solved in Florida 💨
Thanks Scotty- I remember replacing one on my old ranger but didn’t really understand what the heck it was.
I love this dude he explains the bassics and trys to transfer it to all vehicles that being said dont just take what ever he says to hart look up what your car need done he just trys to help u understand the mechanics and how they work
Hi Scotty. Congrats from Portugal. Knowledge is understanding a concept and then be able to put in our own words. You're definitely knowledgeable. I enjoy very much your videos. Gonna fix the Egr from my 99 Astra :) or maybe just put a aluminum gasket to close it. 😁
I watch these videos when I'm feeling down and need a good laugh
Thank you for explaining the egr!! You rock man!
I love how he bounces around when he gets excited, go scotty!
Coca-Cola
Thanks Scotty 😎
This was an Awesome, educational video!
Best videos I've seen by far, thanks brother!
Love how he pointed out that vvt-i system with his middle finger, good info Scotty
LOL
Sounds like I've learned better from you Scotty about catyletic converters than online from other TH-cam videos
Or you could attempt to read a book. So many people on youtube have their own agenda that they do not care to give you a right and proper lesson. If you truly want to learn, find a book.
Yeah. When Scotty really gets to teaching us, he is very effective and shows he has schooled himself well over his years of car repair. He explains things in a way that shows he has practiced what he teaches. The failures and successes.
He's wrong
@@charlesmcgehee3227 Idk in good teaching lol, have you seen his jacking up a car video? Only uses one Jack stand.
I already knew about this. But I still watched this whole video. Great stuff sir. SUB'D
I love this guy I grew up building race cars with my dad and this guy reminds me of so many people I used to know
I finally understand why and how an EGR system works. Back in the day I also removed
Its true, seems like i have to change my EGR valve on my 96 Firebird at least once a year because the stupid thing always breaks.
Our daily history lesson. Another reason Scotty likes Toyota.
lukespack why is everything that makes a machine run better is illegal? Is the government a “Debbie Downer?”
it was government-mandated it had nothing to do with general motors bad design all EGR valves are crap Toyota's rusted I've seen hundreds of them I've got a Delta 88 EGR valve is still fine it's a 1975 Scotties full of himself
Bruh this comment needs more likes
@@glennso47 It kind of is. At least in my own state, any modification in air fuel or emissions needs to be certified for each year make and model. I am all in favor of tailpipe emissions testing but CARB based rules fail you for having the wrong serial number on your catalytic converter let alone change your intake
@lukespack ...and hate Subaru😐
Scott your the best!! Enjoyable as always
Great Scott!!! very good video sir
I have seen many EGR explenation videos . This one is the best one on youtupe .
Thanks, Mr. Kilmer for your informative and entertaining videos!
Speaking of "cherry red", my '85.5 Mitsubishi Cordia 2.0 liter, non-turbo engine had a front cat bolted on the exhaust manifold. I remember popping open the hood once at night after taking a long trip and seeing the front cat glowing a bright "cherry red". (I think that caused the exhaust manifold to crack!) That was a fun car to sink money in, I mean "work on". Having a fascination for car engines, I'm sure that I took apart and replaced more parts on that car than were actually needed to be replaced!
This is pretty good. Thanks for the explanations.
Thank you scotty for explaining in detail. Thank you
I like to close my eyes, listening to this guy, and pretend Joe Pesci is my friendly neighborhood mechanic ....

To me he sounds a lot like the health inspector from Bob's Burgers who is always trying to shut down Bob's restaurant.
I’ve just searched bobs burgers health inspector he really does.
In the 1990's I "fixed" my catalytic converter in the 22REC 4 cyl. of my 1987 Toyota 4Runner with a broomstick and a hammer. Afterward, it did run better!
Ya broke its insides?
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@insideimagery133 did the same thing with my 91 civic, but used a crowbar instead of a broomstick. Didn't want to but it was already broken up inside to the point that it wasn't doing any good.

More of this, please! 😊
Great, informative video! Thanks.
Scotty knows his stuff. When it comes to fixing cars, he has seen it all.
ok, very interesting. Here in Australia during the mid 70s, emission controls also made it necessary to run EGR valves, in order to reduce NOx from the exhaust.......but there were no catalytic converters, Australia didnt go unleaded until the mid/late 80s and cats were required thereon.
It hence may be inaccurate to say(could be a good talking point) that the EGR was required because of the CAT in the US, as cars were producing too much NOx even without CATs.
The primary reason for EGR was to reduce NOX in the combustion chamber, which is created above 2500 deg. F. They may have reduced catalyst temperatures, but that would have just been a side benefit. Otherwise, good video!
Fantastic video! Thank you!
Great video!!! I was wondering about the EGR because, my 2002 Chevy Cavalier doesn't have one. I haven't read about what kind of system it is or what Chevy calls it or how it was. Great advice about reseaching the quality of the manufacturer's EGR system.
Those things sure do Carbon up! My old Toyota truck was when I took it apart 😥🤭
I gotta tell ya Scotty... you've taught me a ton of information since I watched your first video and subscribed. And not just how to get things done, but often times why things are the way they are. So many thanks to you for your time and your postings - and most importantly - giving all of us out here open access to your knowledge and years of experience!!
I love this Toyota sports car you drive - even 26 years old it looks 'stunning' and I bet you love to drive it. And as you mentioned: quality & reliable tech easy to maintain. Got the message, thank you ! Just need to find one now...
Very well explained. Thank you
Very informative videos from Mr Scotty. I've learned everything I know about cars from his videos. Now, I stooped from being a nurse and im following my dream to become a mechanic
Just don't attempt to rebuild an engine with a scope up the tailpipe! ;)
