Hey Scotty how’s it going? I have a 1998 Toyota Camry LE automatic transmission with the 2.2L with 190,000 miles my car revs high but the car will not accelerate. I scanned it and got back p0500 code (Speed Sensor A) I replaced the sensor and still got no luck. I’ll be checking for voltage in the sensor connector today. The car will run for maybe 10seconds then right back to high revs. I dropped the transmission oil pan just now and found 3 very small metal pins any ideas on what it might be? The oil did have a fair amount of grey metal like build up, no chunks just residue on the pan. Appreciate the help as this is my wife’s daily.
Does this method work on diesel cars too?
Hey Scotty what should one do if their VSC pops up on their dashboard?

Officer, Scotty Kilmer told me it was good for my car.
Understandable, have a nice day
Ok, pay the ticket $500.
Officer: Yes, I know Scotty. He's saved me a ton of money. Just stay under the speed limit every now and then. Have a good day 😊
What if you have direct injection? It doesn't matter at what speed you drive.
'and btw that is a fine looking 1996 Corolla sir',
'ah thank you officer'
I showed the officer who pulled me over this video he immediately let me go. Thank you Scotty.

A guy I know told me he had carbon buildup in his engine and exhaust, and had condensation in his oil. The guy he went to was completely honest and told him: I can fix this for you, but it will be quite expensive. You would be better of driving to Germany (we live in the Nethetlands) and go drive really fast for an hour or two. And indeed everything was good after that. This guy is now the mechanic I recommend to everyone.
I remember going on a family vacation as a kid. Mom was trying to get Dad to slow down. He had the Buick Wilcat going 130 MPH on the interstate. He told her he had to blow the carbon out of the carburetor so it'd get better fuel economy. He probably burned a gallon of gas accelerating to 130 MPH.
A red line a day keeps the mechanic away!
True that all i do his limiter in my honda waa ddaaa daaadaa
Haha thats an rx7 thing
Rx8 for me lets gooo rvvvmm daily🤙
White line!
Redline all-day when you have vtec and oil
Cop: Sir do you mind telling me why you were doing 90 in a 65 zone?
Me: Ah yes see.. Scotty boy told me I need to take her out for some exercise, faster is better.
Cop: Understandable, have a nice day
Kkkkkk..........
Yes that simple. 👏 lol

"Italian tune up" as an Italian, it makes me proud 🤣
It shouldn't, it's an old dig on finnicky Ferrari carburetors
Are u Italian from Italy or just an American claimed to be Italian, who can't speak Italian?
ffs
one time i was traveling to the neighboring city, northern west Saudi Arabia i was testing out my dream car, 1984 Caprice Classic Brougham wagon V8 American Import, so my dad told me to floor it, and i was worried for my car, i said "no i can't go over 60 miles", now that you said that in your video ,i feel very satisfied now, THANK YOU SCOTTYY!!!
I watched with no captions and understood just from his hands. 🤚

Looks like he's leading an orchestra.

I believe in two speeds. “Stop, and why the hell are you in my way?”

We call the Italian tune up, "blowing the soot out of it" here in the south. Lol
"Driving your car fast is good for the engine" w/ a 25 MPH speed limit sign in the background! IMAO 😆😆
😂😂😂
Done that the other week in my LandCruiser. It wasn’t running right so floored it for 2hours on the motorway. Runs like a dream now! 😂😂😂
I was shocked that it didn't break down but then I misread LandCruiser for LandRover 😂
@@oliverkalamata2753to make a land rover break down, you don't even need to floored the throttle.
When I started driving my dad told me it’s not how fast you drive ‘em but how fast you get there. He would practice a regular “Italian tune up”
My dad used to tell me
It doesnt matter how fast u are going you will end in the same place
@@improbro1124 not really

@@dragospahontu yeah well not everyone is in germany

My father did actually admit that his car always ran better after I drove it, he used it for very short runs and never fast. I would take it on longer runs, faster and using the whole rev range. It was remarkable how the valvetrain noise would be reduced and the engine generally run properly.
"...(gasoline) can actually clean your valves..."
Me: *cries in direct injection*
Lol
But there are exhaust valves
Italian tuneups rock!
Not just for dinner anymore.
I've been doing Italian Tune Ups my whole life. It comes natural, since I'm Italian. :)

My dad bought a 37 dodge pickup that had been used for tobacco hauling. They only drove it back and forth at about 10-20mph on dirt roads. When he got it running it was smoking a bunch. He went to drive and it was about to shut off so he floored it and he got up to around 50-60 and it stopped smoking. Ran perfect.
Starting off with that Speed Limit of 25mph in the background is gold! 😂
I love how in the opening scene there is a speed limit sign behind Scotty of 25mph 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
This title made me happy in a way I can't even explain
Not only good for engine but good for the environment. Driving at a higher speed can yield higher efficiency resulting in a "coast and glide" situation where fuel efficiency is increased by running at maximum efficiency then idling using the momentum of the car to move it. Running the engine at maximum efficiency may cause increased wear
I grew up without a father. I have always been obsessed with cars/trucks/engines in general. Scotty has helped me see the vehicle rhelm for what is is and I am so thankful their are people like him out there. Helping the less fortunate see what’s really out there. I wish I had a dad everyday
Kevin I hear you, I have a really hobby in older cars and love this channel and the Dad style of advice etc
I always drive fast. It’s good for the environment. Hey, if I go 100 MPH for 100 miles I’m only polluting for an hour. If I go 50 MPH I’m polluting for two hours. That’s what Scotty said...🤔😉🤣
Plus it's safer too. Cutting time spent on the road away from the other maniacs 😄
Crying is also good for the health of your eyes as it clears the ducts and lubricate eyes movement so Scotty you should also cry sometimes once in a while.
No worries het gets to work on GM products every once in a while so that's taken care of
@@shoogeveen And don't forget the Chrysler, German and British cars .
He only makes his customers cry when he calls their vehicles a Piece of Junk except The 90's model Toyota Corolla owners. 😅
If the Germans keep producing cars I'm sure he'll have a meltdown 😭
Scotty! looking for honest information through you has taught me 'who' is a mechanic I could trust. Long life and Love from all of us who watch you.
The problem with doing an Italian tune up on my car is that the roads here in California are so poorly maintained it's dangerous going that fast. At the rate we're going we'll need to replace the wheels on cars with tracks.
Keep it in a lower gear on the highway then 👍 it’s what I do (also live in CA)
Agreed, just make sure you warm up that engine nice and gentle before the 'Italian tune up' ⚠️😯😁
In my old town, I'd always drive around to wake the Miss bit*h up then hit the freeway and see how hard I can push her. Damn can she run.
30 secs is good for modern cars. More than that and its worse for it. Old cars would want a "warm up" depending on temp outside
@@darthsatan4841 I wait until the temp gauge reads normal running temp before I give it the full beans!
Just a simple mantra I've followed on all my motorbikes and cars over the past 40 years which has served me well, never had and engine blow or had any premature engine wear or any mechanical issues due to engine wear and tear.
I've always fully serviced my vehicles regularly and go over the specified oil change intervals ie if it says change every 10k miles I change every 5k miles, if it says change once a year, I change the oils twice a year etc etc
I've put some serious mileage on my cars without issue.
that's why german car's in germany last. they drive 210kph on the autobahn, aka above 120mph
Right... the electronics don’t clean themselves by driving fast on the Autobahn 😉😂
120 is fun if you have an open road to do it on .
I miss West Texas but not the Armadillo ( speed bumps ) .
@@SURASSUH ur 2 yrs late lmao
Oh yea ? Had a german vw square,bavk💩.. Talk about german crap !.
I approve of Italian tuneup. You all have my permission to use it freely.
Martin Lawrence and Luke Wilson said it best in blue streak! Sometimes you gotta feed some speed to your ride lol
Even long drives at moderate speed are good, The key is to get the engine up yo operating temp and keep it there for an hour or more to clean it all out.
I'm still going to red line it just to be sure
Tested and proven right 👍
Scotty gives me confidence in what I'm doing. It's hard to tell these days when you are right or wrong. But, if Scotty said it, it is right!
You know he's not a certified mechanic. Right?
@@davidlaning3613 ...A certified mechanic wouldn't be too quick to give you information on how to keep your vehicle in good shape all the time. How else would he make a living?
Don't blame me if u get a speed ticket got me rolling on the floor laughing
I actually got pulled over doing a 104 on some back roads. The cop was like please keep it under 70 and nice car and let me go with no ticket 😆🤣
You rock.
Scotty you'd be proud of me I drove a Saturn sc1 for 21 years. I always did this at least once a week. Good advice.
I wish we had saturns.
The old "Italian tune-up" has worked on all my vehicles.
I live in Mesa AZ. The city streets are posted 45, however everyone does at least ten over. The highways are in the metro area are posted 65, however I drive 80 and cars are still flying by me. I love this place.
Just don't blame me if you get a speeding ticket 🤣🤣🤣 Gets me every time.
I didn’t forget to spank that like button Appreciate y’all Scotty all day long. Yahoo
Thank y’all all day long. Yahoo
I just drove from central California to Texas two days ago so I guess my car's engine is squeaky clean now. :)
From San Jose to Texas as well partner
Im so glad to be alive in a time where scotty exist. This man is a such a gift 💯
I'm so proud I drive my car 80mph all day! And Tickets come in everyday! Thank you Scotty! My engine feels better now.
I care a lot about maintenance, I’ve been giving my car Italian tune ups on the daily
Same here brother
Oh, im totally blamimg scotty for a speeding ticket!🤣
😂same
😂😂
“The Italian tune-up” is what we call it LOL
4500 RPM? But Scotty and Honda recommend it. 😈
I will say as an Italian American ....
Great expression haha
Don't forget about polish warm up.
Ha ha… “ sure thing officer…this car guru just showed me how to perform an Italian tune up…so blame him” 🤣 😂 lmao
Kind of like the saying for Mazda rotary engines, aka Wenkel rotaries in general, "A redline a day keeps the mechanic away. "
Well, looks like I did one hell of an Italian tune up tonight for my Camry!
I love those aftermarket Cold Air Intakes suckings in all the engine bay heat 🤣🤣
I know right? Cold air intake my butt.
One guy put his above his tire on a Dodge Neon I commented because that's a good spot for it he say LOL it fell off when he was driving
The super long stock intake is already a CAI since it takes the air from inside the fender or in the front before the radiator.
The hell with the engine bay heat. That thing might as well be plumbed to the exhaust manifold.
Policeman: Oh Scotty told ya? Wanna race?
Scotty finally does rev up that engine.
Officer pulls me over? I'm busting this video out and showing him so I can educate the man on why I was speeding 😎🤣
If anyone gets offended by the word Italian tuneup they have major problems lol
I'm pretty sure someone will... *Liberals* 😅
Yeah, if so they’re just *looking* for things to be offended by... I mean it’s technically a compliment to Italians FFS...
see i trust scotty more than any other mechanic out there because he’s a wise man and has been around long enough to know what’s right and what’s wrong 😎
Love Scotty. If he wasnt a mechanic, he'd make a good band conductor
Howdy from Spain, Scotty
hello!
Good Saturday afternoon to you Scotty, YOU ROCK BROTHER 🧰🙌👍🍺
Hey it's Terry Eugene Bollea!
Scotty provides more value per minute than any auto channel on TH-cam! We love you Scotty!!
"Just don't blame me if you get a speeding ticket..."
Hahahaha... a very truthful, most honest & the sincerest disclaimer that I have ever heard 😄😄
I sure like these Scotty short takes, however I’m still unsure if Scotty wears shorts?
would you try it with an 05 Lincoln LS for like a 170 mile drive?
I'd make sure you have the right tires , in good condition if you're gonna be flying down the highway on a 16 year old car .
I don't think an " Italian " tuneup for more than a few miles , is really needed .
DRIVE IT LIKE YOU STOLE IT!!! Been my motto for decades and my rigs last forever!
“Officer I’m trying to extend the longevity of my vehicle”
Good morning from Maine!
morning!
Why do I feel like scotty only wears 1 pair of pants and 1 shirt
He probably buy the same in bulk. 😂
Oh and one underwear. 🤣
Damn this guy loves what he is doing that’s why he is enjoying and working both together
I swear you directed a symphony in another life.
Is it the same for having good engine to drive fast with low rpm, and to drive slow with high rpm. So can we drive 30m/h on high rpm and also clean engine
It's more about flooring the car.
I usually floor the car when I'm first at a red light. I've avoided grimy parts that way.
Me: was only following Scott’s recommendation
Officer: move along son
I do this once a month. And while I am driving my car 90 miles an hour. I have a Italian grinder sandwich to top off my Italian tune up!! Yeah!
I'm allowed to say italian tune up I'm part Italian
He’s still the best on TH-cam for auto info hands down!
"An Italian tune up"thats gold lmao
*_AMAZING CONTENT!_*
I’ll be sure to tell my wife this is why I allegedly have to go 💯 on the highway 🛣
An "Italian tune-up!"? Okay, I'm dead. That's hilarious
Did 90-100 this summer from NY to Ohio and back in my Benz. Car seems much sweeter after that trip. Now I understand why🏎️
I don't know about new ones but I've definitely had it with old ones my grandfather fixes up antiques as a hobby, he had one that the owner said never ran quite right nobody could get it working. Grandpa gets it on the highway runs it hard for 30minutes suddenly theres a bang like a gunshot a bunch of black smoke and the sucker runs like new after that.
Very true! My father bought a nice looking, low mile full size pickup years ago that had a completely messed up engine because the owner never went anywhere outside of town and never got it above 35 mph. It was mostly seized up and required a rebuild.
A mechanic gave me the same advice years ago concerning my buick because i had been using it for work around town and i had to get it cleaned out. Getting your car out on the highway does work wonders.
Oh not to mention higher speeds can in some instances improve milage. I get anywhere from 21-25 mpg in town and as high as 28mpg on the highway.
Some reason I canna figure . The cop who pulled me over wasn't a fan of me wanting my car to run optimally
Had a 72 chevy with a 4 barrel carburetor. Used to punch the gas petal while on a big highway. Left a nice black cloud. A old timer that I worked with use to put some kind of penetrating oil
It’s like keeping your car up in shape like you exercising or go to the gym to keep or get into shape
Scotty said it's okay to run up the interstate at 100 today in the Civic. Cool beans !!
Scotty is a national treasure, swear to God. 😂
When I was in the USAF we used to run our flight line vehicles on the runways after the flying time was over. It helped deal with the fact that for most of the day and night the vehicles never got above 20MPH.
Old man's wise words. Especially the advice at the end of the clip. 😊😁
I’ll just drive through town in first gear from now on. I love the sound of a V8 anyway.
Sorry, officer.
I'm just doing my Italian tune-up!!
THE OLD ITALIAN TUNE UP!! I preform one on the way to work every morning
I always said that revving my engine to its high point was healthy for the engine. Was an intuitive thing. Didn’t bode well with local and highway LE but I knew it was the right thing to do.
Good thing to hear after getting done with a highway cruise going upwards of 120 mph
I remember reading in my 2000 Cadillac Eldorado book "Put in 2nd gear while driving down highway and run full rpm for 2 min on and 2 min off for X amount of time/ miles". Lol something like that. Basically "beat on me at high rpm and make this 4v scream"
Italian tune up. I like that. Probably not gonna save me from getting a ticket but it's worth a shot
I was told this from a mechanic of 40 years. Same thing Italian tune up. I always hit 80 for a few minutes on the highway to work at 5 am with no one else on the road. Up to 250k miles
Thank you Scotty Kilmer now my wife can actually agree with my erratic speedy driving.
