Today my 6 year old son told me I should get “spray starter fluid” to start my car that’s been sitting. He said he knows because he watches “Chris fix” I looked it up here & sure enough! Thanks Chris for teaching my little one mechanics! Lord knows this momma needs the help! 😂
I remember watching this video when it came out several years ago when I had purchased my first car and I had no idea how to fix anything on it. Watching your videos gave me confidence and knowledge and yesterday I just bought an '04 mustang. I'm really excited to have the knowledge and the ability now to feel comfortable with cars. Thanks for what you do.
rewatching this series for like the 4th time because i love it. i dont own a car because im 12, but i have a feeling these are gonna be handy later. thanks for making videos chris :)
Thinking about buying this 95 E36 I found for 600 bucks it’s not running and I’ve been needing a project car now that my daily is fully up and running. I love your content and it is inspiring me to grow my mechanic skills thank you Chris!
Chrisfix’s videos never get old. As you slowly start gaining more knowledge about cars the old videos get more entertaining. I watched this video 2 years ago. But now it is even more entertaining!
Old videos have life and info! I'm getting ready to trade an old 2010 Chevy HHR for some concrete work. The problem is the alarm killed the battery and it hasn't been started in 3 yrs. This video told me EVERYTHING else I needed to know about starting a sitting car. Thank you!
How in the hell can so many people dislike your videos. I love watching your videos. You're the only person I've seen that goes into such detail in how to fix a problem. Which tools to use and what to look for in diagnosing the problem. To date, you have saved me over a thousand dollars by me fixing my own truck. If you had stock, I would so buy some. You rock Chris! Keep up the good work. You're a true blessing.
Im just 13 years old and all i want is to become a mechanical engineer Thats how i found chris fix and All he though us is very very helpful And he though every thing every detail And im sorry for my bad english because im fron the philipines but thank you for all the help you did to us Thank you thank you Merry chrismas and a happy new year love you chris
That said, I absolutely salute the maker of this video,for giving a comprehensive, well-shot, guide with clear instructions on what needs to be done to get a car back on the road without causing damage. Well done, from Ireland. 👍👍👏👏
Hey Chris! I'm not sure if you're aware, but the key mechanisms in the 94-04 Mustangs require you to push that little lever right above the key to actually release it. I don't know if not doing such thing could harm the mechanism, but just wanted to let you know.
I always "thumbs up" your vids before I watch them... this is exactly why. Fantastic video, great demonstration of skills, great filming/editing skills. Mad respect! i can't wait to see the next installment and this car finally in action.
My friend and I are about to start restoring a Jaguar MK10 that’s been sitting at his house for years. Only 19k miles and it’s mechanically great. I’m glad your help will ensure we start it safely.
I just won a 2009 Charger police car from a government auction that has been sitting since May 18th 2018, your video may have saved me from damaging the engine or other components!! They had no info listed when bidding but thankful I found out prior to pick up and now I know what to do before loading it on my trailer
Pull off the air filter, mice like intake manifolds and ducting to make their nests also. They'll chew through the filter to get in sometimes. That fogging oil was a really good tip, never heard of that one before.
I'm in school for my 310S and I can't stress how much your videos have helped me get through school and my apprenticeship. Thank you so much for being my "Day One" since day one haha
Great video - just today I am getting ready to start up my 1965 Mustang after installing a rebuilt 302 with Paxton Supercharger. It has been sitting 6 years.
One year ago I bought a queen garage 2003 Lincoln Town Car Signature Trim with 30,000 miles. The car was sitting in the garage for 7 years since the passing of the owner (a doctor by the way). The car had like two inches of dust and a flat tire. I just clean one window to see the clear like new interior and decided to get it. First I went to buy a brand new battery, secondly, I check the oil level, third I disconnected both coils and then cranck the engine on and off to "circulate the oil" after that I connected the coils, start the engine and there you go a complete silence engine running like a cat purr.
@@patrickstenson830 wait what?! What would happen? I have had the same full tank of gas in my old Nissan that I haven't driven since 2020. I have started it about 3, possibly 4x since then, just by charging the battery, making sure oil level was fine and it started each time. It wasn't until my brother said if it sits longer than 6 months I could blow the engine. That's what led me here, because now it's been a full year since I moved it... I thought just dumping a can of seafoam or octane boost would be ok, now I'm worried lol
You can add a bottle of seafoam or fuel stabilizer. Because the deposits in gasoline will settle in your tank, then get stirred up again when the fuel pump turns on. It can clog up your carburetor or your injectors.@@cadavher

Chris, this is the best video I’ve seen on diagnosing, preparing and sound knowledge that I appreciate so much!!! (And I have watched a lot of them). Well done, thumbs up and I’m a grateful new subscriber!!!
@@chrisfix love the channel and content bro, you've helped me get through many obstacles with my project car. I have a 99 Infiniti g20, I was wondering if you have any idea how to bypass the neutral safety switch, I wanna do this just to move the car around for the time being. I've replaced the switch and tried all the adjusting I possibly could but still no good. I'm not ready to take it to the shop just yet, but I do need to move it. If you have any info either way, I'd appreciate it.
One more thing to check guys is the air box. Like Chris said, lots of animals could nest inside there and you don't your engine sucking up nests. So just open it up and make sure there are no nests in there, and just dust off the air filter while your at it.
Great video! Just what I was looking for. I haven’t worked on cars myself since high school except for fluid changes and some trailer hitches. Thanks for introducing something’s I never would have thought of and products to use to make job easier. I am getting my dads little 1996 S-10 that my brother didn’t take care of, after his passing to use around the house. I like that you don’t have any annoying music playing either. Will definitely subscribe!
Great vids Chris. Good knowledge put across spot on mate..Best auto vids I seen in an age...and I work in an engine R&D test cell... Folks this is the correct ABC 123 of basic auto diagnosis
Hey Chris, you have inspired me to become a mechanic. Your videos inspired me to become one, it’s not some desk job, where you are sitting there punching keys all day for the rest of your life. New cars come in a lot, giving new experiences every time. I actually am going to register for my first semester of mechanic class for my senior year of high school. Just wanted to give thanks ❤
You forgot the most important part of the oil filter change. Lube up the seal ring on the new oil filter with some fresh oil to prevent it from binding/breaking when you tighten the filter down.
What an awesome video! Exactly the information I needed, especially the fogging fluid! I never even knew of such a thing, and I was rather worried about the cylinder walls and pistons. I'm about to get my precious car back from a 2-year impound, and I really don't want to damage the internals, when doing so. Thank you for doing this great, informative video (with clear and concise instructions)! I hope you're getting paid well for these videos, because you sure deserve it!
Chris' favorite phrase, "let's do this but before we do this", i love it ! Chris is quite a teacher, love his videos! Israel Perez viewing from Guatemala, C.A.
Thank you for this video, my old 26 town car has been sitting for a 10 months and it won’t start, so I am going follow your steps and I hope to get it on the road again.
@@D-NICE33 It is not necessary to check transmission fluid if you are just starting an engine. The engine is disengaged from the transmission when starting; you could remove the transmission and would still be able to start the vehicle. It only becomes necessary to check transmission fluid when you are ready to drive the vehicle. The process for that (on an automatic transmission) is to warm up the vehicle and check the fluid dipstick while the engine is idling in neutral or park. On a manual transmission, you need to remove the inspection cover or stick your finger through the fill hole. You do not need to warmup the vehicle if you are checking a manual transmission.
Searched for the clue of humming bird's death. "Ethylene glycol is the ingredient that makes antifreeze tasty. Though colorless and odorless, the syrupy alcohol derivative-which is excellent at lowering the freezing points of vital engine fluids-has a sweet taste that jibes well with soda, juice, and other sugary beverages." Maybe this?
Thank you for being straightforward and "to the point" your videos are. They provide all of the necessary context to understand what you tell us, so thanks.
My car is an audi a4 1996 sitting for about 7 months,i went to mechanic people and they told that it would take alot of money but this guy not even a month he actually started a car in 10 minutes
Had an Audi A4 1999 B5 quattro that sat for 4 years put a starter in it, fuel pump and filter. I had it idling but stalled when given any throttle, I chalked it up to wiring issues such as a TPS (Throttle Position Sensor) and took it to Volkswagen for them to fix it but they hit it with their snow plow instead. Best of luck with yours Rip Audi

You can learn many things in this video
It will because it is almost impossible to find a good mechanic that does not cheat these days.
I'm proud of you. Nice job! Keep learning! You can never learn too much!

2 more years till you can drive!

Hey Chris! I'm not sure if you're aware, but the key mechanisms in the 94-04 Mustangs require you to push that little lever right above the key to actually release it. I don't know if not doing such thing could harm the mechanism, but just wanted to let you know.
I wish I saw your comment. i just commented the same thing. He's running the risk of having his key fall out while the car is running.
Alex Rascon Yeah, I didn't know if there was an specific risk, but I knew it couldn't be healthy for him to just yank on the key like that.
Yeah, he can get away with it, but I would replace the ignition lock to be on the save side.
Alex Rascon Oh alright, and yeah it would make sense to replace it. I've had an '02 v6 and it was strange at first with the key dismissal.
+Paul Vogel haha yeah, I had a 95' GT and it took me a good 20 minutes to figure out how to get the key out. strange design indeed.

One more thing to check guys is the air box. Like Chris said, lots of animals could nest inside there and you don't your engine sucking up nests. So just open it up and make sure there are no nests in there, and just dust off the air filter while your at it.
Absolutely, I'm really surprised Chris missed that! Hes ALWAYS on point.
Great video! Just what I was looking for.
I haven’t worked on cars myself since high school except for fluid changes and some trailer hitches.
Thanks for introducing something’s I never would have thought of and products to use to make job easier.
I am getting my dads little 1996 S-10 that my brother didn’t take care of, after his passing to use around the house.
I like that you don’t have any annoying music playing either. Will definitely subscribe!

Great vids Chris. Good knowledge put across spot on mate..Best auto vids I seen in an age...and I work in an engine R&D test cell... Folks this is the correct ABC 123 of basic auto diagnosis
Hey Chris, you have inspired me to become a mechanic. Your videos inspired me to become one, it’s not some desk job, where you are sitting there punching keys all day for the rest of your life. New cars come in a lot, giving new experiences every time. I actually am going to register for my first semester of mechanic class for my senior year of high school. Just wanted to give thanks ❤
You forgot the most important part of the oil filter change. Lube up the seal ring on the new oil filter with some fresh oil to prevent it from binding/breaking when you tighten the filter down.
Im not sure if im seeing shit but it also looks like he may have double gasketed the filter as well accidentally.
What an awesome video! Exactly the information I needed, especially the fogging fluid! I never even knew of such a thing, and I was rather worried about the cylinder walls and pistons. I'm about to get my precious car back from a 2-year impound, and I really don't want to damage the internals, when doing so.
Thank you for doing this great, informative video (with clear and concise instructions)! I hope you're getting paid well for these videos, because you sure deserve it!
Congrats Chris for 1 million subscribers!
Thanks!!!
Chris' favorite phrase, "let's do this but before we do this", i love it ! Chris is quite a teacher, love his videos! Israel Perez viewing from Guatemala, C.A.

Wow ! It’s so crazy how far this build has come, keep it up Chris :)
Man I love your videos! Look forward to each one, keep up the awesome work!
Thanks a lot man! I appreciate the support!
Thank you for this video, my old 26 town car has been sitting for a 10 months and it won’t start, so I am going follow your steps and I hope to get it on the road again.
Gonna re-watch this whole mustang arc because it's too good.
Come to Chris Fix when you need a complete explaination!!
Absolutely!
@@chrisfix did I miss you checking the transmission fluid?
@@D-NICE33 It is not necessary to check transmission fluid if you are just starting an engine. The engine is disengaged from the transmission when starting; you could remove the transmission and would still be able to start the vehicle.
It only becomes necessary to check transmission fluid when you are ready to drive the vehicle. The process for that (on an automatic transmission) is to warm up the vehicle and check the fluid dipstick while the engine is idling in neutral or park.
On a manual transmission, you need to remove the inspection cover or stick your finger through the fill hole. You do not need to warmup the vehicle if you are checking a manual transmission.
@@chrisfix i tried this gas wouldn't come out
6 years ago this video was recommended to me. damn time flies *fast*
Sheesh you’re not kidding
As a guy getting into cars, this is really helpful towards everyone!
I'm glad this is helpful!
@@chrisfix I also wanna say, congrats on 10 million subscribers!
Searched for the clue of humming bird's death.
"Ethylene glycol is the ingredient that makes antifreeze tasty. Though colorless and odorless, the syrupy alcohol derivative-which is excellent at lowering the freezing points of vital engine fluids-has a sweet taste that jibes well with soda, juice, and other sugary beverages."
Maybe this?
+ch dn smart! Great job researching!!!
Thank you Chris for your response and great vids. I don't have a car yet, but I will be ready when I do buy my very own car thanks to you!

Thanks Chris! I haven't had to pay for gas since watching this video. ;-p
No prob! I expect the drift car to be full when I wake up in the morning with your new knowledge!
My car is an audi a4 1996 sitting for about 7 months,i went to mechanic people and they told that it would take alot of money but this guy not even a month he actually started a car in 10 minutes
Had an Audi A4 1999 B5 quattro that sat for 4 years put a starter in it, fuel pump and filter. I had it idling but stalled when given any throttle, I chalked it up to wiring issues such as a TPS (Throttle Position Sensor) and took it to Volkswagen for them to fix it but they hit it with their snow plow instead.
Best of luck with yours

@Gmas Gspot vacuum was not the issue it had normal vacuum
@@sheldonkerr8744 from where were you checking your vacuum from, because the vacuum system is super convoluted, especially with those overly engineered German cars
