As a guy who works in a automotive field. Yeah, this is spot on. Solid info

I used to do that in my dad's shop when I was a kid, so fun.

Awesome 👍good post bro . Thanks

1997 s420 v-8 . I changed spark plugs and coils, Then drove about one mile to check . It was now much better ,almost like normal car should be. But I checked for water in fuel by disconnecting the fuel pipe at the exit return pipe next to pressure regulator.taking some fuel and then reconnecting the pipe. There is no water in the fuel. It has spark.it has 45 ps fuel i pressure and holds pressure. 55 psi when cranking. Cyl 1 has 30 psi and cyl 3 has 50 psi and cyl 4 has 120 psi. BUT that's how it has been and it ran and drove for past 3 months. So why crank and no start?

Back in 08' my buddy eric fused his sweaty chest to one of these bad boys

If most of the car/dashboard/starting is dead, there's usually a big eg 120A fuse, often bolted onto outside of the fuse box under the hood. Often called the megafuse. If you put jumper cables on incorrectly/backwards, megafuse can blow. OR, what happened to me once after i made that mistake for a few seconds but seemingly got away with it ...since car started and ran after being jumped correctly..., mega fuse didn't blow but was damaged (half or almost burnt i think) so it finally let go a year later. I was too dumb to diagnose myself, but after a tow and the dealer diagnosis and repair with just one mega fuse, it dawned on me that I stressed it a year ago. Now I am paranoid and bought extra mega fuses to live in the glove box and never be needed. Needed a 5/16 = 8mm wrench or socket to unbolt and replace the fuse....

what if i have my 12v at the battery and even with the charger hooked up on both charging and the jump start settings it still doesn’t start what do i do?

AAA once tried to replace my car battery and put the new one in backwards. Sparks everywhere ! It’s amazing that he didn’t fry the computer.

I wish you had mentioned to always wear eye protection (goggles) when handling a battery. My brother used a battery-lifting strap once and it slipped off the battery - battery fell on the pavement and broke, spraying battery acid everywhere. Fortunately he didn’t get any on his face, but it burned holes in his clothing. So, definitely use caution !

Awesome! Thanks

Exceptional video, thank you!

Great advice. Thank you.

You are fine man

Okay negatives to drive a van one with a pickup you have higher ground clearance two there are a number of items you can't haul in a van Three you were tried to take garbage off in an enclosed vehicle it stinks for is being able to see what's behind you it is a lot more difficult to see what's behind in a van than it is a truck. And contrary to popular belief not everybody wants a big truck many of this want a compact or subcompact truck and many of us don't want to go off-roading in a pickup We just want something we can haul garbage off whole washer dryer lawn mower items like that. I see it's a horrible idea If you're viewing it from somebody who wants a giant truck to show off in but for somebody who just want something they can put light loads in and don't want to have to smell trash when they go to the dump It's also a horrible idea. In your video was basically comparing it to one of the most expensive truck out there the 4x4 and anyone who intentionally drifts in a truck is an idiot

That thumbnail is terrifying 💀

4:03 what is the name of the hose you are touching? Thank you.

You can spray the terminals so they won't corrode.

This video helped us diagnose the problem (clog in the hose) and in the end we were able to fix the issue completely by ourselves. Thank you!!

Mine works in the rear, a lot comes out, but nothing in the front.

Now do it while you are sweating

Are you being overcharged by auto repair shops? No. Not at all. Never happened.

I hear your words...it can't electrocute you. Still not touching it. Also you're freaking me out.

Here's something to watch out for. Dealerships, and I'm not referring to used car dealers but rather NEW car dealerships can, and will, do repairs on trades, including body work and painting, etc. and given it's not an insurance repair there's no record of these repairs. I bring this up because many people naïvely depend on services like CARFAX to decide on a vehicle and these repairs will NOT show up on CARFAX! Dealers are not under any obligation to tell you about the repairs either. So, even at the New Car Dealer, it's BUYER BEWARE!

And some cars now have two and even three fuse panels.

I have a very loud rattle on my wife’s slk350 it’s on the driver side rear up high can you give me advice

Not all brake calipers have that type of design. Beginner's should do one side at a time to have a reference for proper installation. Good luck 😮

If you this, hughly recommend you also do the heater core too. Trust me, your body will tha k you when winter comes!

My 04 Lexus will run for 30 minutes at normal temperature, then shut down then it will not start for two hours. Then it starts perfectly why? and will run for another 30 minutes perfectly

Thanks for equipping me with knowledge!! Subscribed

How about the person who s wearing cochelar implant ? 😅

That guy in the comment definitely touched a loose or damaged spark plug wire and thought it was the battery. That’ll knock you back some

The overflow bottle "does" tell you with your radiator requires antifreeze being added... unless the vehicles 20 or 30 years old, just leave the cap alone

biggest mistake is buying one from walmarts

So when you took it off, did you not realize how it went back together?

Not the correct way to check fuses. Check the continuity between the two points on the fuse with a volt/owm meter.

Thanks

Ive tried several different ways over the years In the body shop. The best way I found was to sand the protective layer off, then sand till you get to a fine sandpaper (@1000p). Then clearcoat.

People online have been saying watch out for throttle body closing at will and apparently it can take out a finger, even if the battery is disconnected. I haven't done it yet but just wanted to note that. Note sure if true but it does seem possible. So what you showed with using a toothbrush makes sense.

2006 totoya sienna even when my cars been sitting for a long time not running i can smell something like a hydrovarbon coming from the vents, even in dead of winter, gives me headache and makes me high ive replaced 2 of the 3 cats but dam

Mine isn't a single click but a bunch of rapid clicks

Thank you for telling me that car batteries aren't as dangerous as i think because im scared to death thinking it will shock me so maybe now I can relax a bit...😂 Thanks!

Thank you for explaining the sounds I found mine lol I'll be changing the starter this weekend

With my stick shift cars, I always got close to 100,000 miles before replacing my front pads. With my CVT, 40,000 miles, and not really a choice to down shift.

You have grandpa hands and fingers

Acid and baking soda just neutralize each other, so you just scrubbed it with neutral nothingness. Soap is basic, and some rust removers are acidic. They don’t work together.

Belongs in the ocean 🌊

hello to you I have a 2006 Honda Accord 2.0. My engine stutters only when I'm standing with the car, while driving it doesn't happen. There is no fault light that is on and the engine does not eat oil and water. What could be the reason?

Nice video. My 2001 Corolla sounds good Crank, but won't start. I tested the power from wires to the pump. It turns on twice the tester bulb (one shiny and other not shiny). Until now looks good, but I think something is wrong inside the pump. Maybe it's time to take out the pump and check it in a tester place

Well... I guess I could downshift (7:05), and put more wear and tear on my transmission, engine, and turbo.

Vans are great, we as Americans decided they weren’t cool though. 😁 I mean….i own multiple trucks and no vans……’Merica!
