As you know cars are getting harder to work on yourself. It's not like 20-30 years ago. You have given me more confidence to fix some of the things normally wouldn't attempt. Thanks a lot Scotty.
White lithium grease is terrible, it gets everywhere you don't want it and never flows where'it's needed. Stopped using it years ago. There are better options. Plus it doesn't last long nor work that well. Done with it.
@@sheiladawg1664 The point is that it doesn't flow so that it stays in place and doesn't all flow away, allows for it to be effective for longer. Other lubricants are better if you're trying to just spray a general area
@@savaros1 It's hardly effective if it doesn't get where it needs to be. You spray the outside of a squeaky hinge, it stays right there, on the outside of the hinge. As an assembly lube maybe so but you don't buy assembly lube in spray cans with spray tubes, it's not the intended purpose.
I’m 17 years old and have never paid a mechanic a dollar to repair my car thanks to you Scotty 👌🏽. I have a 2000 Toyota Celica. It was complete trash when I got it but I’m broke and need something reliable. Anyways I got it and changed my serpentine belt, valve cover gasket, a coil, spark plugs, oil& oil filter, fuses, tail lights, and brake drums. I changed the ventilation hose & gas cap on my own. Only time I paid for someone to help was to weld a new catallic converter(100$) and for someone to change my tires(80$) . It now runs like brand new at 242,000 miles and I’m going to paint it soon ! Will change the coolant, brake fluid, and air filter soon ! Saved me hundreds of dollars
I have been watching you for a while you are an honest genius and I love watching your show you’ve helped me out a lot I just wish there were more people like you in the world
Thank you, got some white lithium for my patio door, had used some special lube from when I used to work on copiers but it's almost gone. Will get some silicone for my car windows.
Great channel! I have been taking care of my car so much better with your tips! Much appreciated! Thank you for your videos! My high interest in maintaining and fixing my car has grown so much!
Well done. As usual, good advise. I've been doing my own wrenching for about as long as Scotty, but I come here for new ideas & practical advise. Thanks for your superior efforts.
I appreciate how Scotty offers a mix of hands-on maintenance/repair demonstrations and Q&A videos. Loads of helpful information and straightforward honesty.
Thanks, @Scotty Kilmer. Good to see all these mentioned in one place... I had seen most of them over your other videos, but nice to have a single reference point.
Thanks Scotty, I recently bought a car and having watched your videos and How To's has really helped me and understand more about cars and really has be interested more. Keep you your videos, they're great and help us all out! I know they help me, Many thank, Peter
Thanks for the detailed video on some of the sprays you use Scotty. I've seen you mention others in some of your other videos and I'd love to see you make a long video (or several smaller ones) that explains ALL the sprays, lubricants, and stuff like that that you use for different things. Thanks! Love your detailed videos. I could use a set of all these sprays you showed. :)
Scotty, I just purchased a 1998 Toyota 4Runner (223k) that has been well maintained and your videos have made me aware of routine things I can do to get another 200k or more out of her. Thanks!
Have you tried the special fuel suppliers, with alternate fuels that are "green", for that relaxed feeling? Your exhaust might smoke a little for a short while, but you will be so relaxed and chilled out.
Hey Scotty, I think your channel is one of the best and most informative channels on TH-cam. Thanks for all the hard work and help you give to us. God bless you and your family Scotty, Keep up the good work.
WD is too lightweight for stuff like that. Use Pennzoil, it's been quality tested and used in the most extreme conditions. To give them Maximum protection.
I watched your video regarding the AT205. I had a small oil leak near my crank shaft. I used it with my oil change and within three days, no more leak!
I see you use walls and poles as bump stops then. Could be worse, there was a place selling "reconditioned" brake pads, where the reconditioning was to glue cardboard to the old pads, and give them a coat of black spray paint.
Dish washing liquid and a handful of dirt from the flower bed works for me. But I will use a proper grit containing hand cleaner if available, preferably one containing lanolin or coconut oil, as that moisturises your skin. I used to buy one with microbeads, and almost all coconut and lanolin, but it is no longer made.
Thanks Scotty. I watch your videos all the time and some your mods, fixes, etc. have REALLY helped me out! Thanks brother, take care of yourself. Mike Prettyman

Scotty do a review on ACF50!
Hi scotty kilmer can you do a video about Q20 spray applications and tricks
@iztok lah Grease is...GREASE! Sheesh...
Good advice.
I've used many of the products based on Scotty's recommendation, they really do work. Thanks Scotty.
We need more Scotty’s in this world...
This is very true, he sets an example for many people
He is a legendary mechanic. He is the final, unbeatable boss in the video game
I shall name my first born Scotty
As you know cars are getting harder to work on yourself. It's not like 20-30 years ago. You have given me more confidence to fix some of the things normally wouldn't attempt. Thanks a lot Scotty.
Another problem solver!!... i used the WD-40 silicone on my windows...now they glide up and down effortlessly.....thanks scotty..cheers to you!
When you give a how to video I usually learn at least one thing. Always appreciate your videos. Thanks.
9:35 where he just misses half the window 😂
took the words outta my mouth lol
It's Toyota, it only needs half the maintenance xD
Scotty is missfiring!!
Artanis02sk LMAO
Lmao he did missed
I love how I get to learn something from Scotty’s videos to take care of my car and help others with their car

Imagine what his toilets look like.
Thanks Scotty! I just tried the silicone spray on my 2014 Sienna's window tracks and they seem to work better!
Scotty: "Just spray a little of this" ..as he lets loose a can all over the car. Hahaha
Nicolaas Van de Houten
He shot his wad
...and me with no lighter...
And his driveway frequently gets doses of wd.
Bra I dodged a headshot when he was doing those window sides with the long barrel! LOL @9:34 STG
Just discovered this channel and LOVE it!!!
Rev up your can of WD40! Cheers, Scotty!

9:35 half of the spray went on the neighbors face... 😂😂😂
Can't stop laughing after I saw that part. Lol
😂
I'm learning a lot from Scotty, Very entertaining my favorite program on TH-cam.
Started watching car repair TH-cam videos when I got my 2001 Toyota Camry back in April. Your videos always bring a smile to my face, Scotty.
Great video Scotty!! That tip on Mother detailing spray was priceless. Will be buying one immediately!
If Scotty uses it, it's good enough for me!🇺🇲
scotty got me hooked on dry lithium spray! im always spraying that stuff!
hey Scotty!!! I like how you converted you gas grill into a table, to hold your spray cans and chemicals
Thank you, got some white lithium for my patio door, had used some special lube from when I used to work on copiers but it's almost gone.
Will get some silicone for my car windows.

You remind me of my Dad. He was always working on cars. Never thought I'd enjoy it like him, but here I am.
My dad has the Mothers Instant Detailer and I didnt realize how useful it was!
I took Scotty's advise on my windows and they're down & up like new - and I was about to by 4 window regulators.
@@FredTheLutinoCocatiel you power window motor is going bad.

AT205...BEST ADVICE EVER! Saved me over $2,000. 2005 Hyundai Tucson over 250,000 miles and no longer leaks oil.
Thank you Scotty!
This is a fantastic video Scotty! I’m going to bookmark this one.

Now I have to go stock up on all these sprays! 😂
Scotty i love watching you and i learn something new everytime. Mechanic myself, for 20+ years keep up the great work. No pun intended. Wrenchin' on!

Scotty is the man.
Great vid Scotty 👍
Best auto repair videos on youtube!!!!
Scotty: How do you fix a rust hole in a gas tank?
Buy a new gas tank if your going to the bother of removing the tank then replace it much much safer
Graham Wells ... you're
Chewing gum, or JB weld if you are into a little more permanent fix, though here I would use Pratley putty instead.
Gunnar Soroos With a cigar lighter?
Get a welder. TIG is ideal for thin metal, but SMAW is tough and will probably work too.
The laughing animals get me every time lol
N Mills the laughing horses are the heart & soul of these videos, I swear
N Mills ditto
New video format is great! Thanks Scotty for all you do
Love your videos to teach my granddaughter since I bought her a Toyota Camry 2004!
The man the myth Scotty Kilmer the car fanatic!!
Love your videos! Great info delivered honestly and thoroughly! Hard to find honest, direct videos from mechanics like this any more! Keep em coming!
the lithium grease isn't helping my car, it's still having mood swings...
Have you tried the special fuel suppliers, with alternate fuels that are "green", for that relaxed feeling? Your exhaust might smoke a little for a short while, but you will be so relaxed and chilled out.
This is a very under-appreciated comment.
Prozac grease may be more useful
Ask any Tesla or Prius driver, lithium makes you happy and makes your farts smell like flowers.
No no no, wrong lithium grease. It's the rechargeable grease that got around the memory problems of nikel cadmium grease.
Clean-non offensive comment: This one is the most useful video for me. Imagine maintaining all your machines with just the right sprays! Awesome!
Scotty, much love, pal! Thank you for years of knowledge, dude!!!
That silicone spray is like my Truck, Rusty but Trusty.
Great tutorial. I'll never run the engine again while spraying silicone on the belt (oops).
SCOTTY I can use some of the sprays for my 93 corolla.
I love everything scotty has been teaching us. More power scotty!!!
Thanks Scotty, your videos truly help me so soo much
9:35 cleaning the camera too 😂
Scotty missing the mark. 9:34

Found Scotty about 6 months ago. All the stuff my dad failed to remember to mention about cars! Toyota lover for over 30 years with only one lemon😛
Hey, Scotty !! Send me some of those sprays, 'cause I need to drive my 2013 VW Jetta for a few more years !!!
My Brother in Law sprayed wd-40 in his VCR LOL :-)
😀😁😂
His VCR needed some rust protection
wd-40 can probably worth more than a vcr
I take it that ended up with some well wrapped tapes then.
davidst489 While it was running?
My brother and his boyfriend likes using WD
WD is too lightweight for stuff like that. Use Pennzoil, it's been quality tested and used in the most extreme conditions. To give them Maximum protection.

I grease my breaks to make them last longer
Whaaaat?
You will break your brakes.. 😉
Good one
Yes grease on a break sounds yummy
I see you use walls and poles as bump stops then. Could be worse, there was a place selling "reconditioned" brake pads, where the reconditioning was to glue cardboard to the old pads, and give them a coat of black spray paint.
What do u use for hand cleaner when your gloves didn’t work
David Hold following
Orange cleaner is great, gojo works good with the gritt
Brake clean works well
Dish washing liquid and a handful of dirt from the flower bed works for me. But I will use a proper grit containing hand cleaner if available, preferably one containing lanolin or coconut oil, as that moisturises your skin. I used to buy one with microbeads, and almost all coconut and lanolin, but it is no longer made.
@@SeanBZA .. Dish soap and a spoon of sugar works well. I use swarfega normally. 👍 🇬🇧
