always love your grandpa story about him closing shop and croaking a short time later and same happened to my dad after he closed his shop....
Scotty you need to star going over those Tesla manuals buddy. Awesome videos btw.
Ey, Scotty! I recently got my permit and I’ve been driving in my mother’s Lexus RX330. It’s a pretty sturdy car, got nearly 100,000 miles on it. Do I want to get a slightly more modern car when I get my license, or stick with the Lexus? PS: I’m aware that Toyota makes Lexus cars, so they’re obviously good quality.
So the ⛲ of youth is working 😳
To clarify about parking on a hill, I don't want to put my '06 Toyota Sienna Van in park and THEN put the emergency brake on? I want to FIRST put on the emergency brake while I have my foot on the brakes, then after, with my foot still on the brake, put the car in park? Or do I put on the emergency brake, take my foot off the brakes, and then put the car in park?
Scotty was built by Toyota, that's why he's still going strong !
In that case I don't wanna know how rusty his rear end is.
@@allenmckinney9533 lol
He's got 500k on odometer
Scotty is the original OEM... The OOEM
Lol
65 and goin' strong! Keep on -trucking- *revving* Scotty!
Give it another 100,000 miles.

He’s only just run in
Those are highway years hes got at least another 70 years! 🤩👍
he's still got like 80% of his life left!
I'm glad my Dad taught me about that E-brake 1st then shift to park tip, good to see details on the importance of it
scottie will request to be buried in a 94 celica as a coffin
And at the reception, the funeral attendees will raise their glasses and yell in unison: "Rev up your engines!"
yep, Coffins are endless money pits
Rudy Straight that would be so beautiful for his funeral
And the car would still drive, why waste a running vehicle LOL.
I've accidentally shifted into reverse with an automatic transmission once while driving down an expressway, all that happened is the transmission went to neutral and the engine turned off to avoid damage. While I was coasting I simply restarted the engine, shifted into drive and continued on my way.
Cars are getting destroyed by everything these days!
Wow, it's almost like ICE cars are built to degrade every time you turn it on!
That's capitalist planned obsolescence for you!
That's because it's all for profit, they could care less about you. Sad but true. Most cars today are all junk, disposable...so you "Keep Buying"
If they never stopped makeing tbi motors
Except for a 94 Celica S. Nothing can destroy that beast
Scotty, let me thank you for the good you are doing. Earlier today, I parked on a steep hill and had to get my car towed cause the axle broke. Every time I park, I always put the ebrake on. My mistake is that I always shifted to park first. Thus, every time I start the car and shift into drive i can feel the strain I put onto my transmission. I knew I was doing something wrong, I just didn’t know what. After tonight’s events and watching your video I now know for sure to always put the ebrake on before shifting into park.
That last part where he says work is what keeps him alive then chuckles and looks down then ends the video... he felt something there
Scotty's hands move 100 mph lol
Rev up your hands!!!

So happy I found you Scotty! Saved me some money on buying a car.
Many of us are fortunate to make a career in the field we love. I wish more people could do the same. Thanks for sharing so much knowledge with all of us, Scotty. You rock!
I agree 100 percent with the work keeping you alive thing. I’m 19 and am a union electricians Apprentice in the IBEW. My General Foreman is 74 years old and has been with the contractor I work at for 54 years! And what’s crazy is he gets around as good as I do! I’m 19 and I have to take heavy stuff out of his hands to keep him from. Working to hard. He just keeps going!!
You said revving up once won't hurt the engine, but you also tell me to rev up my engine at the start of every video?

Scotty I agree. My Dad is 75 and the last of 9 kids. He has brothers in there early 90's still working on cars. They all grew up working for my uncle Hoyt.
He ran a parts store, garage, and gas station from shortly after he got home from WW2 until his kids made him "retire" in his 80's. He's 95 now. Saw him a few weeks ago and I swear he hasn't aged my while life and I'm 45.
Fixing cars is in our blood. I guess that's why I love your videos so much.
Putting the E-brake up on flat surfaces is a good idea as well. If your car gets bumped or hit by another car while it's parked, that can damage your car's parking-brake mechanism.
Most new cars 🚗 don’t have e brake tbh
Thanks for all the great advice Mr Kilmer
Is your photo a date with the kanker
Yes Ed boy.
I've been into mustangs a little bit lately. Hopefully I will start saving for one or other cool sports car as my first car. God bless your Grandfather that he was working at a old age.
being born and raised in SF; when parking on a hill i’ve developed a habit of putting my cars into neutral with my foot on the brake, engage the parking brake, release the brake pedal, THEN put the shifter into Park. that way, the weight of the vehicle is on the parking brakes (the way it should be) and not straining the tiny Park pin.
I love you Scotty, wishing you many many happy years of life time. Greatings from Egypt (Africa)
Hey Scotty..if you enjoy what you do for a living you never work a day in your life..
My dad said that to me back in the 60's..
I disagree, if you love something you do, you'll be surprised at how hard you work at it.
Rodney Brand
. Totally agree.
Your Dad is trolling you.
I tell people that all the time. I've been at my current job almost 26 years. If I didn't enjoy what I do, I sure wouldn't still be doing it. I would find something else to do.
@Possumlove LMAO
I still got a carburrated engine,in 280 w123 1981,vw beetle 1302 1974,corrolla 1981,all in good stock shape hehehe,love the old engine
Huh, they still had carbs in w123s even in 1981? I always though my 1978 was near the last ones produced with a carb. Car was a pile of junk but never had to touch the carburetor.
Still every car I owned since has a carburetor, way simpler to work on.
@@GlamStacheessnostalgialounge Yeah, I thought 78 was the last year they did carbs, but that might only be in Australia.
i live with a 81 yr ol man and every day he inpresses me he never has a dull moment and is allways keeping busy its just who he is Do you know A Mark Johnson Im local to dallas so im kinda local if you live in texas and i belive you do but He allways keeps busy and i learn a hell of alot from him its crazy how smart he is and how active he is
DAYUM. I saw this and use to put in park then use parking brake on my driveway. Truck would move a little. Started putting parking brake first then shift to park and truck does not move. It works! Thanks Scotty good info
The epic laugh at the end lol. Scotty,the man,the myth,the LEGEND.
Lmao it made me feel weird. I could almost hear sadness and acceptance in it
That makes a lot of sense, putting the e-brake on first, then putting it in Park
DIAMLER I tell my daughter that all the time. I think i just waste my breath. lol
It's a parking brake for a reason, but it's not an emergency brake.
I prefer to put it in park at 4 mph, the clicking the car makes until it creeps to a halt is soothing. Like a glove
Lmao
I am 70 and only recently learned about putting on the emergency brake when parking. I read the owner's manual. The only thing is I hold the brake pedal down, then put it in park, then with the brake peddle still down, I engage the parking brake. There is no vehicle movement to catch the transmission. Now it's automatic for me to do it. Nice tip.
I've read that it's key to apply the parking brake first (before shifting into park), otherwise there is still strain on the transmission 🤔 I never even read this in my manual, I'll have to check it!

That last few minutes on grandfather was priceless, Scotty just gave you pearls of wisdom!!
Thanks Scotty! I agree with you on keeping your mind busy. I recently had to retire early at 62 due to Parkinson's. I was a microbiologist at a local hospital.

AMEN to that .....
Damn, you are a smart, Scotty, not just a smart mechanic, a smart person.
my Mazda has almost a quarter of million miles thanks to your advice.
I had a Subaru that would crank but not start. Tried everything; new battery, new maf sensor, ground cables, checked the starter and fuel pump. Everything was fine. Turned out I finally got a code that was able to diagnose the problem, it was my crank shaft sensor. $20 bucks at autozone and my car was running good again.
Hi Scotty! Another great show! Never stop!
Not even into cars but I love watching your videos.
Will_one_shot_fragrances IG has nothing to do with being into cars , it’s about learning how to maintain your car
Taje017 I don’t care I like his videos
Love your videos Scotty! I do agree what you said about loving what you're doing. If you love what you do, stick with it. My father is going to be 73 this year and he still works because he loves what he does.
Anyone can tell that you had/have GREAT respect for you grandfather, Scotty ..... It's a NICE trait to have.... :) :) :) :) And "Thank you" for sharing all you vast knowledge with the rest of us all ......
I wish I could just fix all my problems by entering the famous Konami code you showed! Lol.
What I have been doing (while parking on a hill) is:
pull up, brake.
Shift into neutral
Apply emergency brake (normal brake still applied)
Release brake so vehicle is resting on emergency brake
Then shift into park.
Is this a good idea? What do you think Scotty?
A little bit simpler,
- I park
- When still applying the brake, I shift into park,
- I put the e-brake on,
- Then I release the brake pedal.
I don't know how useful it is, maybe it is very much, maybe tranmissions' parking metal pins are made to support the car weight 10 years before breaking, but I think it is certainly a bit fragile anyway so my instinct asks me to preserve it, I do it and I think it is a good practice.
@@PauloHeaven when I do this is find my transmission still clunks when going back into gear 😅
From what I've heard, it's ok to just brake (still in Drive), then pull e-brake, then shift into park. Although honestly your way seems just as good, if not better!
@@PauloHeaven the trick is to make sure you are applying the e-brake BEFORE shifting into park, otherwise it doesn't make a difference (strain is still on the transmission)
This is my procedure: I hold the footbrake. Shift the automatic car into neutral. Engage the emergency brake. Ease off the brake slowly until I feel the emergency brake catch. Then shift the car into Park. Then switch off.
Same
awesome, I thought I was the only one to do that
Just wanted to say how much I appreciate your videos and the fact that you share all the links down bellow. At 65 you use TH-cams tech better than most.
I still use the e-brake when parking everytime no matter a flat surface. When i dont, on any automatic car, notice how the car moves back and fourth. Thats the strain put on the transmission.
Rudy Salas I always do too after having so many transmission problems with my old cars I’ve gotten used to it. Although I’m kinda confused on what Skotty said at the beginning of the video. What I do when I park is I first come to a stop using the brake then put the emergency brake and put it in park or viceversa, put it in park then put the emergency brake (always stepping on the brake) to keep the car from moving backwards and putting tension on the transmission. I hope I’m not doing it wrong 🤞
@@pacotilla55I had to listen to the video a few times myself but I believe you're right, I come to a stop and before I remove my foot from the brake I put it in park, then I apply the emergency break, THEN I remove my foot from the break, this keeps the car from rocking and resting on the transmission. Been doing it this way for decades and I believe that's what he meant.
I drove my 996 weekly to play golf. Maybe a total of 65 miles round trip. I changed the oil once a year.
Give me money
Some people are dumb with automatic transmissions. They just slam it from drive to park with out freeing the transmission first. So best way is to go from drive to neutral, then once car isn’t rolling use hand brake and either keep it in neutral or got to park if you are that paranoid about your car rolling away. I do it all the time my self in my v8 and it’s the best way to preserve the transmission and avoid unnecessary wear and tear.
Scotty, @3:10, the cranking,non starting magnum, if it has a tachometer, watch it as you crank the engine. If it bounces, the timing sensor is good. If it doesn't bounce, it's the timing sensor. I've had this happen on my '86 Porsche 944 and my 2000 Land Rover Discovery II. Watching the tachometer on both is what lead me to the problem and eventual fix.
It's gotta be really flat, though. If your car rolls until the parking pin stops it when you let your foot off the brake, you're now straining the transmission. Best to just always set the parking brake anyway.
Yup.. Brakes are cheap, Transmissions aren't
so one should put the car is park take your foot off the brake, then pull the hand brake?? or pull the hand break before letting your foot of the brake?
I've gotten in the habbit of putting the car in neutral with my foot on the brake, setting the parking brake then letting the car settle onto the parking brake then put it in park. I think the parking prawl on the transmission was originally intended to be a last ditch failsafe should the Parking Brake fail for whatever reason.
@@joecostantino3684 This is correct, though if you're getting movement enough to bind up the parking pawl after setting the brake firmly, you need to get that cable tightened. This might be easy to fix on your own, for example my truck's owner's manual says it's self-adjusting and you can tighten it by firmly applying the brake, then shift to reverse and back up with the parking brake firmly applied about one vehicle length. Consult your owner's or service manual.
As a European where manual transmissions are king (so I am used to them), which requires using the parking brake when parking the car, I always set it even if I drive an automatic and I live in Canada now 😁
Damn your titles! I can't resist clicking, even though I should be doing some work.
My advice regarding the parking, park, footon brake, shift to N, apply the handbrake, release the brake, let the car hold in place using the handbrake then shift to P.
I usually slow down enough to jump out while it's still rolling. Then I use my right hand to take out the keys and my left hand to pull the parking brake to bring the car to a stop.
You pull up in drive foot on the brake engage p brake shift into park . Why neutral? if its a stick ok.
Great advice!! Same thing I do🙀
@@jasonscott7527 you shift into neutral with your parking brake on then the car rest on the brakes before resting on the transmission gears🤪
@@503rpf Does the same thing when in drive
Scotty ain’t old he’s 65 years young
G Man That is right. Im 73 years young. Just keep moving. I watch my two YOUNG grandkids 4 to 5 days a week. They keep me moving,if it wasn't for them,i would be old or dead. I love being with them. We hike,go fishing,go to playgrounds, out to eat etc. We enjoy each others company. 🇺🇸
My car is just reving up the engine! Ow, because the transmission is destroyed!
Rock on man! Thanks for the advice and happy memorial day! You are awesome!
Scotty reminds me of those mechanics on those TV programs from the 80a and 90s except no commercials, daily content and an honest agenda. Thank you Scotty.
I’ve been trying to tell people this for years everyone thinks I’m crazy thank you LOL
Scotty you are eternally young in my book never change!!
I second THAT ...
Scotty, thank you for helping all of us with your advice with our MSV's. Money Sucking Vehicles!😂
funny story regarding that dodge's story. my dad works with a guy, he goes out from work and his newly bought (from a dealer) car won't start. over the course of the next couple days, changes the battery, starter, a few other things, right there in the parking lot, before figuring out what it was. he was late on his payments and his dealer was one of those ones that has a remote kill switch hahaha.
Hey scotty you don't look 65 you are in a great shape, thanks for all your help

I saw what retirement did to both of my grandfathers. I'm not going out that way.
Exercising the mind is incredibly important. This is why I want to work as a mechanic part time as I go to school as an engineer. It keeps my mind going better than other part time gigs.
Thanks Scotty!
I put it in neutral first Then handbrake, then let off the brake then put it in park.

Dang Scotty you look like your barely 50. Well definitely keep working because we want to see you around for a long time. It's not very often you find people like yourself willing to help everybody!
When I park on a hill here's what I do.
1. Apply brakes.
2. With foot on brake shift from Drive to Neutral.
3. Apply emergency brake.
4. Release foot brake and let car's weight shift to emergency brake.
5. When car stops moving, shift to Park.
I think this is better than putting emergency brake on while in Drive. Any thoughts?
I daily drive a 1976 corolla SR with twin carbs love the smell of gas in the morning!
Liam woah that’s cool! How many miles is that corolla up to?
Hope you stay alive for along time Scotty
Right on about engaging the parking brake first then shutting off and shifting to park on hills. Pet peeve of mine is everyone (including you Scotty, sorry ;-) ) calling it the "emergency brake" and not properly the Parking Brake. It's not for emergencies, it's for parking. I've known people who never use it and it ends up rusted and useless when they really need it. Never mind the potential damage to the transmission lock.
Keep working Scotty. We need you!
We need a Scotty Hula Dashboard Doll 😝
Love your vids Scotty!
Those side pics make me giggle every single time! Watching these vids have me looking at cars on the road and laughing. Scottie makes me feel like a pro, and I am 37 and on my 1st car... Lol
Woo! Thanks Scotty. Shut my car off while in D (but with hand brake on) literally yesterday and wondered if that did any damage! Thanks for clearing that up as usual.
I need a Scotty Bobble Arms.
Pulling an actual ebrake is so more fun than just putting it into park
Not just you info getting lots of views, but your video editing is fire 🤘🏾
I’m just south of SF and park on a hill. I actually do put my e brake on before park. Glad I was doing the right thing all this time! Love my 18 Camry.
