@@larryarcher4502 I REALLY need some old school advice! I've got a 2000 Buick, replaced motor 30,000 miles ago. She's not been driven much until lately so I sprung for plugs, wires, ignition coils. Very next trip over 30 miles, no buck, no hesitation, just died. Had it towed back to mechanic, scans clean. The crank sensor was changed after motor replacement so had the ignition interface replaced. She still dies, only when warm. Not running hot, fuel pressure is okay. I've been told the computer isn't sensitive enough on these models & just run it until it won't run anymore! Can't trust her though, she starts & runs after she cools off SO WTF? I'm seeking any experience mechanics have had, this has stumped all the ones I've known. HELP!!!!
@@katiekane5247 Problem your having needs to be trouble shot at the moment it Dies, Had of Ford With a bad ignitions swich do this The thing drove every mechanic in town crazy I finally got it to do it for me And noticed it was like somebody shut the key off, The problem never showed up on a computer diagnosis!!!
Maybe you can study some of Scotty's tips and be a decent mechanic at least. You might not have went too mechanic school, but, you know enough and is honest enough to get the job done, vs, someone having to break their bank to take to shop.
@@silkroad1201 Many V12 Mercs have 24, and since most will service at the dealer it could cost $3k++ To my knowledge there isn't an aftermarket for the wires on many of those engines so it would still be about $2K for DIY. Chrysler/Dodge was blessed with a lot of Mercedes tech during their marriage. Dual spark plugs maybe not so much, only because even supercars can get by just fine with 1 per cylinder
Mercedes M275 V12 has 24 plugs, no wires, with ridiculously delicate and expensive one piece coil modules for each cylinder bank. I'll never own one of those piles ever again. It was stupidly fast however.
Not only is the content educational, the editing is excellent. These are high standard videos. He’s a skilled mechanic and a skilled video editor. Impressive!
tell ya what Scotty....you be a treasure to us viewers! I have always been impressed with your no frills approach to automotive repairs, cripes you work in the driveway exposed to the elements. Hell you have no lift, you use basic handtools, not even a shop to work in. Most others have shops, tools and equipment that cost 10's of thousands of $$. You just consistently deliver sound automotive analysis and effective repairs without all the lavish tools others use. I guess you are truly the "shade tree mechanic" and a damn fine one!
Hey Mr Scotty! I'd like to say a big "Thank You" for all you did for us. I've been watching your videos all these years and I must admit, you saved me! Please, DO NOT retire!!
They do absolutely nothing and only get in the way. It's beyond me why manufacturers spend the time and money, however small, to make a cover most customers won't even see.
I hope you change your mind and stay with us Scotty. If you leave you WILL be missed. You've helped a LOT of people learn a LOT, me being one of them. if you truly retire, I wish you and your family all the best life has to offer !! Take care and God Bless !!
NOOOOOO!!!!! PLEASE DONT RETIRE! My son is just now learning how to work on his vehicle, well...atleast we'll have what you've taught us over the years, DAM, gonna miss you Scotty!😖😖😢❤
You need to develop a network of mechanics that are just like you in their thinking and work ethic with a shop. If they were in every town we would all be so fortunate to have good service.
Scotty,thank you for all the best you had to give.when you teach we stop look 👀 and listen,God bless you and your family,you shared your honesty and your gift of knowledge,you inspired me I just couldn’t get enough,Love You my friend,always to be remembered and never forgotten enjoy your retirement,you made the world a better place.stay safe.🥰💯🇺🇸
I DIY everything I own from excavators to Dozers down to my mower. Your tip on the AT- 205 RE-SEAL was brilliant used it on seals alot but never thought about suspension bushings on my personal vehicles .... Your my f'n hero. Thank you so much, you have no idea brother
you can tell Scottys neighbors know him so well, they dont bother to check on him while he is yelling at the garage door.... love your content Scotty...
Excellent diagnostic especially with using you head about the main areas that cause instability with car ignitions. I remember having a 93' Ford explorer (tank) years ago had the fewest problems of any vehicle I ever had but I accidentally cracked the mass air flow sensor on top tapping it too hard. So after it running like a James bond getaway truck with smoke barreling out of it I had it replaced and it ran super once again. Keeping up with simple maintenance rides you of headaches on even these fantastic reliable vehicles for sure.
I appreciate all your advice, and the amount of work you've put into these videos over the years Scotty, but when you retire you could be a comedian, because you constantly make me laugh just listening to you, and your hand movements are great, and they explained the bits of the videos I didn't understand. Stay Safe Sir.
I feel like this is the first time it was ever anything BUT a bad ignition coil, lol. I was actually surprised when the misfire didn’t follow the part swap.
Damn I remember watching this guy a decade ago. He’s come a long way. He’s like me when it comes to working on cars. Surprised he hasn’t retired already, being an auto technician is hard on your body especially your hands.
He makes at least a million a year on TH-cam n Google had he's net worth at 15million...but at age 68 Scotty can't let go of he's love for fixing cars. He loves what he does n that's hard to find in life.
Thank you Scotty for your experience and dedication to helping us peons trying to maintain our vehicles. Problem removing main pulley to replace main seal. Tried everything.
Been seeing Scotty for decades on TV news. He used to be pretty subdued, but after all this time in Houston, he's telling us how he really feels. I'd like to know how many people he had to break the bad news to, that they bought a cleaned up flood car and it's always going to have problems.
I have been self educating myself on auto repair for the past few months and i would be much worse off if not for you Scotty. You are very straight forward and talk facts with your audience. I have a 2000 ford ranger (3.0/V6) and it's idle has been rough. The guy at autozone told me it was my erg valve pressure sensor (which they tried to sell to me on the spot for $90.00) so i did my homework. I figured out that it could be that or the vacuum hoses attached to the part. It could even be a mucked up idle air intake valve. What i am trying to say is that your videos gave me a sense of confidence in learning about my vehicle and what to expect in certain situations/conditions. I also figured out from watching your videos that i dont have to pay $90.00 at autozone when i LITERALLY found the same part online for around $26.00. I have one video recommendation though, i think many others would benefit from hearing your thoughts on reputable online car part markets. I want to make sure that i am buying from a reliable source and for fair prices and i have a feeling you would know better than I 😂
Only a mechanic would say "I hooked up my 5000 dollar diagnostic set to read the computer and it came up with 56 codes. No big deal because they don't affect the engine." Absolutely love how Scottys explanations are laid back and not stressful Thank you sir.
Scotty you'll never retire this is what you love to do it's your career and happiness.. by the way how's the new shop and home doing especially the site with new people treating you ? great I hope and bro happy holidays
Scotty we need you, even after you're long gone we will still need your videos!! So I hope you have some plan and have prerecorded videos for the future. Selfish but idc your videos are that helpful
Sometimes with simple things, doing by yourself, you can fix a "big" problem. Once I changed the spark plugs on a Toyota Rav 4 with 180.000 kilometers and I think that anybody had been changed them ever, because it wasted a lot of gasoline. Great videos!!!
Scotty man you've been an inspiration helpful to do many. You do the work it's what is important it's what counts. The past year I was going though crap and got depressed. I dropped your channel thinking I can't even get my life straighten enough to buy a car and insurance. I'm still not there on track yet . But I calmed down some since then. I still got day I put my hands to the sky. But tonight I saw this video and it came flooding back to me your a true one of a kind thanks for doing what ya do. It's great 😊. And when ya do retire. You've earned the respect of so many. legendary. Respect. Good works.
Scotty thank you very much for your awesome, authentic and clear videos, you made me win my phobia from auto repair and helped me alot, much love and respect, wish you the best :)
Awe, that's sad to hear you're retiring, but you truly deserve it, and we are thankful for you and you sharing your experience with us. Something goes wrong with our vehicles, I say let me refer to my mechanic Scotty lol and we have always been right, so thankful of you.😊 ❤ 🎉
Oh tip for putting in spark plugs, dont thread them in with wrench because you could strip the threads. Always start by hand then tighten with the wrench
Great video Scotty- your grumbling reminds me of myself working on my stuff except your a pro. You make things look so easy. I spend half a day on a 30 min job lol I grew up in Santa fe and lived 18 yrs in bacliff. Live in Kansas now. Had no idea you were from Houston. Love your videos!!
Your editing team is stupendous! I like your videos because you're super knowledgeable, and very interesting how you relate your knowledge to your viewers.
I have been watching for a few years. I have learned so much and given me confidence to speak when I know what they are doing is not right. I tell everyone’s well “Scotty says”
This has to be a good comprehensive video on easy diagnostics you can do if you have a decent scanner. Not bad Scotty. Will miss you if you go. Honesty in this world is getting scarce! Stay safe mates!😊👍🏻😷
U should still make videos periodically, whenever u feel like it. Meaning after your retirement, still like the insight you provide and always room to learn more!
How many remember that he had just swapped plugs one and two, and it wasn't loose when he pulledit the first time, so the plugs being loose had nothing to do with the problem. Replacing all the plugs cured the problem so it could be that with 80 thousand miles on the original plugs they had just burned enough of the electrode away that and the number one coil possibly a bit onthe weak side resulted in a miss. And the replacement of the plugs and the proper gap solved the problem.
I don’t know anything about cars and didn’t understand a lot of what you are talking about but as a IT Tech your troubleshooting process is great. That’s what people need to learn.
I think Mercedes built that engine off a WWII aircraft engine design, when they use two spark plugs and ignition coils (magnetos on older ones) for reliability.
@@rwd323 Toyotas are more reliable than that endless money pit Mercedes. The old Mercedes sure after year 2005 they are worthless. Even Scotty knows that Toyota #1 for realiability, comfort. Toyota is like a good dog that never leaves or side.

Afternoon Scotty! Have a great day!
Valid salad.
scotty you dont need to retire because you get money from youtube
Just dont stop making videos
Scotty Kilmer ? it's about that time for you to start writing some books on how to fix cars step by step ? before you retire.
You're not fooling anyone Scotty everyone knows you'll never retire. Great tips though!
I retired 20 years ago , Problem is I can't find anybody to work on my, Or my friends cars, I have never been so busy😉

I wish have someone in my town like Scotty, to help me learn more about mechanic. This man deserves gold medal for what he is doing. God bless him.
He's making plenty of TH-cam money. He's been blessed 😊
I wish I could carry Scotty in my handbag with me.

You see a check engine light
Other mechanics: that’s bad
Scotty: that’s good
Cel gives you a good start position vs limiting down to a full system
16 spark plugs 😩 I’ll never complain about changing my 4 again!
12 cyl mercs are the most fun. $2000+ for plugs & wires😂
5.7 hemis have 16 plugs too, and I've changed mine twice over the years. It's not that bad

Hey Mr Scotty! I'd like to say a big "Thank You" for all you did for us. I've been watching your videos all these years and I must admit, you saved me!
Please, DO NOT retire!!
He has an unrelenting hatred for engine covers... Lol
And any modifications, even tho i dont really like him its weird seeing his videos slow down
An for American cars too.
Engine covers suck!
They are useless
They do absolutely nothing and only get in the way. It's beyond me why manufacturers spend the time and money, however small, to make a cover most customers won't even see.
been watching Scotty for years, and still love him.

I’m first watching this in 10.8.23 and he’s still doing videos 😊
Highly underated , very practical, honest and quite a funny youtuber.
Would definitely want him as my mechanic!
I love Scotty's videos. His cadence of speech, teaching methods, editing, quality useful content and sense of humor keep me coming back... 💜💋💜
4:25 I love how Scotty whispers "i hooked my $5,000 scan tool up".
“Take the stupid beauty cover off” haha that never gets old. We love you Scotty !!
I'm no car guy, but I could watch Scotty diagnose and fix cars all day.
9,000 RPM's, that thing is fast.

Even when sitting!
Hey it's Robert!!!
Too bad it is/was a common issue, my 97 SE would do the same.

OMG I love the way this man talks, cross between Matt Foley (van down by the river) and Rod Stewart.
I like how he calls the plastic covers stupid beauty things and throw em away lol you're the best scotty
DON'T talk about retiring, Scotty! We need someone we can trust...
Sure do appreciate you!
Scotty’s biggest flex: I’m a professional mechanic that has this $5,000 scan tool.
Nah his biggest flex is his Celica
Biggest flex is the celica.
Although his views/hour ain’t nothing to sneeze at.
Arthur Ruiz Right, and his wife’s Lexus! I wonder if his wife bought a Brand New Mercedes-Benz, will Scotty file for divorce? 😂
One that he got for free
That he didn't buy
“First we’ll take the stupid beauty cover off!” Had me cracking up! 🤣
U must b new
Scotty's, car fix'n secrets and comedy hour. You sir are a Priceless National Treasure. My hat's off. ~ your neighbor
Wow, are you actually his neighbor?
"Oh look, the check engine light came back on, now we can check it.."
GOLDEN brother! 😆 😆 😆

As long as the Celica runs you shall too, Scotty! Never retire
That celiac left a puddle of oil in my driveway -.- hate that car
Let him retire, give em a break

Great simple tips there. And best of all, USEFUL tips!! Never retire, Scotty!!
I live to watch Scotty's videos and learn about car problems and solutions.
I feel like one of Scottys future videos is going to be captioned as “if you think I’m retiring, you’re stupid” 🤣
That'll be the one where he actually retires.
I DIY everything I own from excavators to Dozers down to my mower. Your tip on the AT- 205 RE-SEAL was brilliant used it on seals alot but never thought about suspension bushings on my personal vehicles .... Your my f'n hero. Thank you so much, you have no idea brother
you can tell Scottys neighbors know him so well, they dont bother to check on him while he is yelling at the garage door.... love your content Scotty...
Scotty's workbench when he's doing the mass airflow sensor is a trash bin. You are so frugal I love it
If the parts are made in China might as well be close to the trash bin. 🤣😋
Excellent diagnostic especially with using you head about the main areas that cause instability with car ignitions. I remember having a 93' Ford explorer (tank) years ago had the fewest problems of any vehicle I ever had but I accidentally cracked the mass air flow sensor on top tapping it too hard.

Keeping up with simple maintenance rides you of headaches on even these fantastic reliable vehicles for sure.
Scotty turns into the hulk when it comes to beauty covers
LOL, he passionately hates them, he always throws them away.
Love your style Scotty, you've helped a lot of people with these videos." You're the man" 💪👊✌️
I appreciate all your advice, and the amount of work you've put into these videos over the years Scotty, but when you retire you could be a comedian, because you constantly make me laugh just listening to you, and your hand movements are great, and they explained the bits of the videos I didn't understand.

No dont retire. These are the best fix it videos, awsome sense of humor. Thank you Mr. Scotty.
I feel like this is the first time it was ever anything BUT a bad ignition coil, lol. I was actually surprised when the misfire didn’t follow the part swap.
Green sticker on the coil, tells me someone already had a crack at this
I really admire people who know their stuff when it comes to fixing cars...because it's not easy and its very valuable knowledge
Damn I remember watching this guy a decade ago. He’s come a long way. He’s like me when it comes to working on cars. Surprised he hasn’t retired already, being an auto technician is hard on your body especially your hands.
I’m 21 and I already have knee problems and osteoporosis in the middle of certain fingers. I can only imagine

He makes at least a million a year on TH-cam n Google had he's net worth at 15million...but at age 68 Scotty can't let go of he's love for fixing cars. He loves what he does n that's hard to find in life.
No. If anything is similar, it is you that is similar to Scotty.
As Scotty said before he not only does this because he enjoys it but because it keeps him up and moving
Found your videos at your retirement but still glad I did, been a lot of help. Enjoy your retirement and much appreciation.
New vehicles sure have a lot of plastic parts! Excellent video Scotty.
Spark plugs are probably the cheapest maintenance to replace on newer cars. Change em at 50000 miles . 😉 dont retire scotty. Love ur videos.😊😀

I have been watching for a few years. I have learned so much and given me confidence to speak when I know what they are doing is not right. I tell everyone’s well “Scotty says”
This type of videos I really like Scotty. Thanks. It helps me learn how to diagnose different problems. And what could possibly be wrong.
I always enjoy all Scotty Kilmer real videos. Always thank you for your free expertise.
Seems like he puts a lot of time and devotion into his videos good job Scotty 👍
@2:52 I don’t know what you tried to say but I can’t stop repeating it 😂😂😂
“If Scotty is talking, his arms are moving”
I noticed that other former TV hosts also explain things like how Scotty does. 😅
Well, Scotty had a show. 🤷
Well you are right about his arms he surely doesn't have to exercise!
I've been working on cars for 20 years and this guy is amazingly smart.
This has to be a good comprehensive video on easy diagnostics you can do if you have a decent scanner. Not bad Scotty. Will miss you if you go. Honesty in this world is getting scarce! Stay safe mates!😊👍🏻😷
Scotty...u make this so entertaining...feel like a kid watching cartoon´s...haven't felt this in years ..thanks man
Congrats to all 20 people that were first, very awesome achievement.
This is what's wrong with public school these days.
You Tube must be slow on the West Coast showed zero views when I clicked on lol
FIRST
Fourth😢
PupuTheMonkey what?😂
U should still make videos periodically, whenever u feel like it. Meaning after your retirement, still like the insight you provide and always room to learn more!
if you retire, who am i going to trust then Haa? im going to end up in a big money pit in the future!
Buy a Toyota.
One word: Toyoda
@@williamwatkins2538 does he get a lot of things wrong?
@@williamwatkins2538 ok I gotcha. Just started to learn about cars so idk what everything does exactly
@@williamwatkins2538 cool ill check him out. thanks
How many remember that he had just swapped plugs one and two, and it wasn't loose when he pulledit the first time, so the plugs being loose had nothing to do with the problem. Replacing all the plugs cured the problem so it could be that with 80 thousand miles on the original plugs they had just burned enough of the electrode away that and the number one coil possibly a bit onthe weak side resulted in a miss. And the replacement of the plugs and the proper gap solved the problem.
You wont retire and you will stay as alive forever because we need you
You ALWAYS want to be lined up with the hole whether it's #1 or #2. Proper alignment assures the best results! 😉👍
Scotty is the George Burns of auto repair. At 100, Scotty will be in his driveway saying, "I've been a professional mechanic for 86 years..."
Perfect - 'George Burns'! lol
We can hope for his immortality. :)

@@hughbrackett343 Perfect!! Your name is almost iconic, which makes that all the funnier, Buddy Hackett.
With a cigar
I don’t know anything about cars and didn’t understand a lot of what you are talking about but as a IT Tech your troubleshooting process is great. That’s what people need to learn.
When you are doing maintenance on a Mercedes, everything is double...double the work, double the parts, and double the price.🤩🤩
I think Mercedes built that engine off a WWII aircraft engine design, when they use two spark plugs and ignition coils (magnetos on older ones) for reliability.
And it drives twice as well as a Toyota
@@rwd323 lol
@@rwd323 haha well they'd wanna have some benefit. They cost a fortune to buy new, own and maintain.
@@rwd323 Toyotas are more reliable than that endless money pit Mercedes. The old Mercedes sure after year 2005 they are worthless. Even Scotty knows that Toyota #1 for realiability, comfort. Toyota is like a good dog that never leaves or side.
