ENGINE TIME MACHINE: Cleaning Years Of Carbon Out Of My CHEAP Camaro RS
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 22 ก.ค. 2020
- My $4,000 2011 Chevy Camaro RS has a big problem. The 3.6L LLT V6 is close to timing chain failure. The dealership told the previous owner the 300HP direct injected engine had to be replaced to fix it. In the last video we removed the sludge with the Dynamic Engine Cleaner. Now I'm going to try and clean it with BG Products Platinum Intake Valve and Combustion Chamber Cleaner. This is a typical problem with DI engines and they recommend cleaning them every 15,000 miles.

I dont know about everyone else... but prefer johns videos over watching more rebuilding of vehichles i will never be able to afford like a few other you tubers do
Most of my stuff I'd have to pay to get rid of, never mind people being able to afford!
I like the fix and flip videos. I think more people can relate to that.
Yup. Wizard and Hoovie have jumped the Shark.
Buddy Revell they buy cheap shit all the time
@@buddyrevell6369
Who is Wizard and Hoovie...
Woah that revving tool thing is like the terminators leg. Freaky AF.
Of all the Netflix, Amazon and general television series I've made my way through during all this time spent at home, this series is honestly the best thing I've been watching.
The last time I was this early, JR had a job and was a part time TH-camr!!!
Is that Tyler's 7 Series pulling in again? 😅
Yup, you can see the Kansas plate in some frames, plus the wheels are the same as Hoovies 740i
So funny that a lot of People have the same thought 😂
Probly. 🤣
It has a different Wheels it's not Tyler's
I’m glad I’m not the only one who saw that😂
The Alpine was supposed to be sold in the US but when Chrysler bought AMC and Jeep they cancelled it.Was a slick piece for the time.
Yep. Imagine walking into a AMC/Renault/Jeep dealership and seeing that in the showroom!
@@davidgalinat4257 Just when we thought the Fuego was wild looking
that would have been the a 310, this one is a 610
The predecessor (A310) was even cooler in its time IMO. Interior looked like the cockpit of a 1970s sci-fi spaceship.
This is considered the GTA. The 310 was prior and the 610 was later. The 610 had pop up headlights.
Can you please keep this Camaro, I have no idea why but I’m absolutely in love with this car, I love watching you make content about this car and I don’t want you to stop any time soon, being 16, wanting a muscle car, and broke and seeing how you can find a muscle car for only $4,000 and fixing it to be better than it was is just amazing to me, you can fix a car that was “a lost cause” to some people, and have it pretty nice is awesome.
He keeps it on one condition. There has to be a "Book It Dano" Hawaii Five O reference in future videos.
This is definitely my new favorite series.
Yes! better than a Kia.
That Renault Alpine was next level cool.
Thanks!
That was a very cool Renault.
After what they sold here in the states, I never thought I would utter those words.
Very cool.
Betting Doug ends up reviewing that one soon.
Worked on too many Renault "appliance" Reliance, and Fuego pieces of shit. The 1.4 liters came from the factory needing valve service, right away. I've owned more reliable Tecumseh lawnmower engines.
@@drewt1081 yeah the alliance was pretty much a ball-less Wonder. In 1989 we took a fairly new one from Ohio to Tennessee with just us four teenagers and luggage. Nobody was over 180 lb. The driver literally just held the pedal to the the floor and we'd get up to 75 going downhill and barely stay 50 going uphill in the Tennessee mountains. No wonder they quit selling here.
Can't wait to see how this flush turned out
Glad I found this channel! Been dealing with so many issues with my 2010 rs. Hopefully learn how to fix it from this channel. Already replaced relays, new starter, new crankshaft position sensor for the starting issues...still not fixed completely yet. And now timing chain p0008 code!!!!!
Great video John. Really interesting and thanks for showing us some fascinating cars. Great team you and Johnnie
The focus of the new camera is driving me nuts! I like this series though! It's like the camera is on an "average" setting. i think it should be on a "center" setting.
Yeah, something is really off.
right, my iphone does better
I totally agree. The camera EVER CHANGING focus is giving me a vision headache.
Heh. I just listened to it while working on something. I glanced at the screen, wondered "What is he doing? Oh well!"
Upvoting because SET YOUR FOCUS SIR
Enjoying all the uploads, thank you, it helps deal with all the crap going on.
That Renault Alpine with the Pearl white color.
What a BEAUTIFUL car!!!! Wow!!!
Thanks!
it never occurred to me that the turbos on a 911 turbo are below the oil sump and would have their own mini sumps and scavenge pumps. Super cool stuffy.
Don't forget about the PCV design flaw JR!
We are going to address that for sure 💯
Isn't that the same motor that had issues in the Cadillac for freezing up in the winter and holding a lot moisture in the block?
DjJtown I think this motor is GM wide problem, I know the Wizard has mentioned it before.
Camera Quality is amazing. Good job dude.
Great videos man! Keep doing what you’re doing with cars that anyone can buy unlike some other YT that start with low end cars then turn to super cars.
I have interest in every video you post man! I try and learn something in each one and they always seem to amaze me! Well done! I live in Derby but I’m sure I’ll see you driving around Wichita sometime or at O’Reilly/AutoZone and I’ll be sure to say hey! Keep up the great work brother
Love your videos man always watch them right away
"Would you look how expensive these new control arms are"....throws it down on bare concrete floor....cringe....
Used to ride around in various GTA/A610’s when I was young back in the UK. My buddy was the boss of Renault UK at the time and had a different one every month. Really great car and ahead of its time for sure!
I’m rooting for the Camaro......come on baby you can make it!
Is this a new camera? Video looks better than usual! Keep rockin JR.
id like to see the underside of those valve cover before and after the treatments
It's all bs.
That Alpine was pretty sweet.
They are seriously wild cars...
Unfortunately, they're also '80s Renaults, so they can be seriously troublesome too...
@@gosportjamieSadly. Its always the coolest cars that aren't reliable. That one looked like it has been maintained its whole life too and with all those spare belts and hoses most small issues could be taken care of. Should be fine for a good while i would hope but with older foreign cars like that you never know.
Thanks!
Love the quality of the new camera WatchJRGo
Dude love the video great job trying to get this car working like new. Great info and the other rides are fantastic.
I thought the gas pedal thing was pretty cool yesterday _before_ I realized it was a robot.
The world's first Terminator Camaro...?
You know this one will be back...
Maxwelhse it’s all fun and games until your tools steal your car
Thanks for showing the a310 - gotta be a unicorn in the USA.
I’m a simple man, I see a JRGO video, I watch
I love these projects!! Keep em up!
Nice work repairing your '11 Camaro RS. BTW, at 10:55 I liked that Renault-Alpine A610 V6.
Looking forward to seeing the timing chain replacement video. My 2011 Camaro LLT V6 has 78k miles & no issues but I know at some point I'll be replacing it.
I love the BG induction and injector cleaning makes my car run like brand spanking new.
I've done this before on a few cars, it worked BRILLIANTLY for me
That Renault was mint!
That’s a cool setup, nice to have something like that automated.
I work in a shop that uses bg products got to say they really do work very well
Love hearing the Camaro revving in the background while talking about the other car.
I myself just bought one also , same symptoms , thinking if a V8. But this is very interesting. Keep this car and do many videos on it . Thanks JR
“Hey, yeahhhhh.....my name’s Brian......” Legendary. Great episode!!! 😎🙌🏼
Exposure looks great the last two videos!
I didn’t realize they were under the Porsche at first and was thinking to myself, “wow those v6 camaros have some great standard features”
LMAO!!
Your videos are getting better man.
I'm impressed with that tune in a can!! Not many actually work. I clean rings, ticking lifters, and motor sludge with a quart of mystery oil, qt of dex3, qt of kerosene and rest oil with a qt and half overfill. Half an hour idling and to about 2500-3000 using full throttle to load the motor. Just letting off so it doesn't go past 3000. Keep going until it stops billowing smoke, usually 15-30 minutes. New oil and filter, cruise around for 30 minutes. Drop the oil and refill. Works really great on neglected low tension oil rings. Transmission transmedic will bring back lost gears and stop converter shudder. Transmedic is the only one that works. It's blue and thin like mystery oil. 200r and 700rs always lose reverse and slip in overdrive. 2 bottles drive until everything is working perfectly. Drain and power flush with new filter. Add another bottle and your finished. Works most of the time. It's usually sticking valve body causing the issues.
That Renault is so sick... need to see that and the Porsche soon!
That Renault is amazing.
Thanks!
love that Alpine. I recognized what it was immediately
I have an '18 RS V6, I did a MRT muffler delete and it sounds pretty good. I also installed a K&N cold air intake. Adding the intake knock .3 off my 0-60
Enjoy watching the channel... Looking forward to seeing what happens with the RS...
JR, thanks for another great video. I do need to pick one nit with you. The supply hose to the brake booster is under vacuum and in theory being sucked to the intake. The hose clamp is more to keep un-filtered and un-metered air from entering the engine. I agree the dealer should have replaced the clamp but no chance it will blow off. Keep 'em coming.
I'm old school, and never though "liquid mechanics" really worked, but you've changed my mind over the last two videos. Hopefully, adds 50 - 100 000 more miles of life to the engine.
I've a feeling they haven't worked can see an episode 'dealer was right it needs new engine'
I've seen SeaFoam do good things too.
Nice I work at Waldorf Chevy Cadillac and we use the bg products I'm always recommending the bg platinum service these 3.6s and 2.5s need it bad
Interesting story about that Renault Alpine, my neighbor from years ago had one, beautiful engine sound.
I remember sitting in an Alpine at the UK motor show in '85 or '86. It seemed like a space ship then, just weird now. Apparently they drive really well, especially the later versions. Very cool.
It’s a very cool car to drive.
nice series this one thank also loved the Renault alpine
Omg that A610 is amazing! My friend has one here in the UK. It has the same PRV V6 as the Delorean
No, the Delorean has the same engine as the A610. They bought it from Renault, not the other way round. Me? Pedantic?
I stopped watching this channel for a couple months cause I forgot about it... But I'm back!
Thank you for these videos man....keep up the god work man your videos are inspiring..
I still have an old "Gumout" IV type flush kit from the early 1960s!
Nice to see it modified by the folks at BG!
Great job so far , glad you got your money back on the BMW too.
That Renault is a beauty! I've seen them pop up for sale occasionally but never realised just how wild they are!
This project is taking a unique turn. Having access to the Ninja's shop and those "potential" remedies is interesting. Can't wait till it runs in the 10's......lol
Car Ninja has got some serious kit in that garage - very cool.
Maaaan I’d love an Renault Alpine. Super rad
That's basically the same motor used in the DeLorean, although it wasn't as castrated by US emissions.
Thanks for the kudos!
ahh an Alpine, grew up a few miles away from Dieppe where those were built .. if you want to geek out on these check out on the car that got out of that manufacture the spyder without winshield being one of my favorite with the r5 turbo of course ... unfortunately they will must likely close it in the next two years
That thing probably going to the track or hill climbs 🔥 sweet machine Porsche
I would install a factory exhaust, you'll find take-off systems from those who want the noise. Car will run properly with a factory system.
hey ! there's a award plate from an ancient car show in the back on that car ( the Renault Alpine ) . it's from Quebec , canada !! . i'm from there too . hello from Québec city ! i've been following yours videos since a couple of month now .
Do a quick price check on those Michelin TRX tires for that Renault. Awesome car.
Wow that pedal assist tool is amazing
It's just a fancy version of a stick.
@@jamesr5741 That's like saying a car is just a fancy version of your legs.
@@TheBrokenLife lol, ok then.
It is. i though it was just a stick but then it got robot. neat.
A Precision Broomstick
oh my god that alpine is stunning! 😍😍
Thanks!
I can’t wait to see what the engine looks like inside
Camera work JR! Aaaah! Good content mate
Your videos get better and better. I would recommend walnut blasting instead of a chemical clean as you don't need to change your engine oil afterwards.
Renault Alpine! Super cool! Edit... You really need to see the R5 Turbo2 . Thats one sick little beastie!
you need to do a pressure test on the Cats to see if you have a blockage .. you can do a quick temp check if you have laser temperature tool
Interesting 4-wheel steering drive on the Porsche. Last time I saw that was on a Honda Prelude back in the early 90's and it disappeared. It's back!
Man great job man I did this to my Cadillac CTS 4 2009 3.6 I took a long hose and did it with the seafome it took like 30 minutes I saw the difference I think by the end of the year I want to do the cams but I will be looking for a shop to do it
I swear by these BG products, they are great. My 2008 Buick Enclave with a very similar DI 3.6L V6 engine never had any of these issues, but I used the maintenance products from BG every 30,000 miles. You want your engine to last a long time, you do the DI cleaning regularly - and then you won't have any issues. Can only hope this engine is saved.
That's a slick setup for that
Its great to see JR has become friends with the car ninja
Thats a cool treatment. Maybe a fan in front of the car will help with cooling just in case, but overall pretty good
may be it needs to run hot to work...?
If you want to pronounce it correctly (like the French would), "Alpine" rhymes with "mean" or "steam". Not with "mine" or "dime".
So funny to see one of those in the US of all places. They're getting pretty rare over here in Europe. But there is a bright yellow 610 living literally two blocks away from me - but then again, Renault's German importer/headquarters are very near to where I live, so there's always a better than average chance of seeing some of their rarer cars around here.
An Alpine in Kansas ?!!? That's crazy !
a friend of mine had one of those Alpine Renault ( back in the days, in France)
The Alpine came with the PRV engine that was shared by Peugeot Renault and Volvo. You should see the Murena. The French built some impressive machinery
See these alpine's every day here in Paris 😊
✌️❤️ Stay safe
Renault made some great cars indeed! I had the Le Car once eons ago!
Love the Alpine Easter egg!
11:15 back when Reanult was producing cool cars. What a stunner that thing is!
Thanks!
He was talking so fast. What is final answer did the two liquid cleanings work?How much cost for each?Is it recommended for older autos? Make ending of film more explicit, buy or not buy signals? I like this guy.
I like that. Only dealers can do what were gonna do.
in europe you''ll see some alpines around. but this is one clean example
It’s a 17k mile all original mint condition survivor.
The Fuji is growing on me. Most unique car channel look
You know someone with an Alpine A610? That's so cool!
The video just started and I clicked like without watching the rest yet, I liked the last two so why would'nt I like this one.
