One of my favorite customers as a mechanic was a man with no legs. He had a crane and wheelchair and a Chevy pickup. It had hand controls for everything. I always let him come into the back so I could show him the details of the service and condition of the truck components as it was 25yo truck. Never know what we are capable of. There’s a famous hot rod builder that only has one arm and works alone outperforms 90% of everyone who thinks they can wrench with two hands. Wish you the best brother man
I love RX8s and rotary engines.. this one looks extra hammered though. Sucks it all could have just been the fuse. I bought my RX8 CHEAP as a “cranking not starting”. I had it running within 30 mins because it was simply flooded. Runs like a champ.
Worked on them things for 10yrs PO661 Normally the solenoid stack underneath the inlet manifold...and misfire jeezus just throw a set of coil packs in they are common as fk
Fun fact: The early days of soccer instead of a ball you would use the head of a dead enemy as a ball so the guys really are getting to the roots of soccer 😂
@Aesthetics622 Like they had a whole other engine with set of coils ect lol Maybe if they changed the engine to a bad one For not checking the fuse and identifying the complaint. Don’t listen to customers word for word. Read between the lines. They are asking a shop because they deep down want the shops wisdoms and not to just play a word game to make them happy
Sounds like spark or fuel to be honest if there not running right there smoke and run like as because it’s trying to go rich lean rich lean fighting the misfire so when go to basics check fuel check spark get those old ass injectors flow tested and cleaned
Easier to just do an apex seal instead of going to a used engine that you got no idea if there's issues bad apex seal or coolant seal or anything else.
Use to be a master tech at a Mazda dealer and I kid you not. Every RX8 that comes in our shop. Gets a new reman engine. They are one of the worse engine designs ever.
I miss my RX-8, sold it so my family could move. Now I'm disabled and live my car life through vids like this.

These uploads are so fire haha. Glad theres more longer content.
in wyoming we affectionately refer to the critters in the engine bay as rocky mountain engine gerbils
Owner of the RX8 watching this vid 👁👄👁
It sounds like a lawn mower
i love lawnmowers
Because it is
Sounds like it only runs on one rotor
Usually they’re smooth af
😂😂😂😂😂
That RX8 is JAAAAAANNNNNNKKKKKKKK
I LOVE THE POKEMON MUSIC SO MUCH ON EVERY FLIPPING VIDEO

Don’t sound so sweet about it next time😂
Mine Needs A Swap As well, hopefully this vid helps with the swap
I randomly came across your reels on Instagram and knew I had to find your YT, amazing content
How is it possible for a rotary to sound like it’s got rod knock lol
Bad spark timing?
Because they're dog shit motors. Avoid them
Put the old engine back in then try to restart it. 😄
Where is part 2!
Hello everyone, hope everyone has a great Friday
Cameraguy seen it didnt say nothing 😂 5:34
Bro they kicking the spider.....definitely funny
that's my state baby!!!
Came for the motor swap, stayed for the Pokémon music
And this is why we don't do junkyard motors, especially to less reliable motors. People total Rotaries for blown apex seals all the time.

Man I wish you guys were local. I need a good shop around me to work on my Corolla 🤣
And what made you think they are good ? Look how they fix cars :))) (they don’t)
Question is. What auto shop would go to all that work without checking fuses, compression of both motors etc. lol. Yikes.
Where’s pRt 2 😢

tell me he didnt go down at 5:30 just a teenie bit
They got the mic! NOICE
Wish you were closer to TX
Is that a lawnmower 😂
Can we get an update please 🙏 what was it
4:07 where can I find this?
What is the song at 1:38??? I know it’s an edm song but I can’t remember it😭
You guys wish it was a rabbit those are Rat droppings 😂
You're fighting a losing battle with that rotory and you know it lol
Love the vids!
Looking for part 2 my bro
Technically, any time after this video was posted, could be considered 'later'...
Is there a part 2 with this ?
They sell a cow web brush at Home Depot. It works miricles.
Wheres part 2
How old is the gas?
How much do you guys charge for a motor swap in a 2019 WRX?
Any update?
no shop vac??
Love the pokemon music in the background
Probably a rabbit or mice, no rats in Wyoming
no shop air is wild
pokemon in the background right? emerald/ruby/sapphire?
Never heard a rotary engine sound like a 4 wheeler engine before….

You missed a washer 😅
Get me a hazmat suit now before I go in the same room as this car
You're gonna need an old priest and a young priest.
Rotory problems=Let Vargas build you a motor=Problem solved!
People from Wyoming catching strays 💀
My old rabbit farm was a rx8 actually
i was gonna say "y u no vacuum" but then again prolly no bueno since it aint a good idea to vacuum oil and sludge with all that debris
8:22 😂
Quack!😂

Wheres hug guy
Miss those light weight wankel motors!
This is why RX8s have a bad rap. Not the car, the mechanics.
Dumb ass question but do you guys look at Ford escapes 😂
Just rebuild it 🥺
Should do a thorough bottom washing first. The vehicle is too dirty to work with.
Why even fix it....just go buy another one for the price of a used engine and install.
Let's gooooooo
Depending on where the car came from it might have been a pack rat
you guys truly do get the weird fucked up shit lolll
Shouldve just thrown the whole car away bro
Im wondering why the customer bothered with a motor swap for the same thing instead of buying a junkyard LS1 for like $300
more expensive to do a conversion probably
It’s rat poop rats can get huge and there poop is to rabbits are more round
Um... where's the rest
Use to be a master tech at a Mazda dealer and I kid you not. Every RX8 that comes in our shop. Gets a new reman engine. They are one of the worse engine designs ever.
Bro is paying an arm n a leg for a shit box man. Should’ve at least swapped an LS into it at this point not another dorito
Lots of whining so far...
Sounds like junk lol
Rx8 worst cars mazda made
That things wasnt even worth the time and labor you and your crew put into tbagy car.
I surely hope the customer doesn't have to pay for all the time spent whining and crying.... Not a good look for your shop honestly.
Was there a part 2?
