Rev the ford bro

another common w video from wyatt ford cars

I have a guess to what could be going on atleast from what youve described if its worth anything, id say you might have a broken O2 sensor, i havent experienced a broken egr sensor before so i cant really say what the symptoms of that would be but for an O2 sensor usually what happens is that the car starts running really rich to the point where the catalytic converter cant work effectivly and it starts smelling like an old 50s car without any sort of exhaust cleaning and a by effect of this is that the car starts to get horrible gasmilage. Anyways good luck with the car :)

Ngl i wanna see what you gonna do to the mustang🧐

WYATT FORD CARS UPDATE LETS GO!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I’m looking to buy one, what do I look for?

I have this car

just ran into your channel and its cool to see someone with the same car trying to build it in a similar way. i just got my es300 not to long ago after fixing the headgasket and it has been a pretty dope first car for me as i can see it has been for you to very awesome to see 💪🏼

Found this channel a little while ago and I really suggest you do more road trip videos! Your commentary makes for a funny ride 🤟

Upgrading to a 100amp alternator from a Highlander or 130amp from an RX300 is a must for these cars. Like you said the alternator was weak from the factory. Also go with remanufactured Denso and not aftermarket.

*says something inapropiate*

didnt you a whole shop and detail store in the back of your trunk😭

A Lemon is only a Lemon when you buy the car brand new an have tons of problems with it within a year an has to meet a certain threshold of time in the shop an different repairs… This would just be a bad buy from a neglectful owner

Bro my Lexus 1998 GS300 I bought Feb 1 2024 from the original owner this guy only did oil changes an brakes so now I’m stuck doing tons of mechanical work he neglects I did plugs, valve cover gasket, trans flush AC fix, and I brought it to Toyota bc the ABS Light TSC OFF light came on an the Brake Booster ABS MC was whining an not braking proper I diagnosed it as that part too but since it’s $1900 dealer only part I figured let them diagnose it an instal they called me back with a list of things I need that I just replaced an are brand new lying to my face said the ABS Brake Booster and MC is fine and that I need 4 rotors an pads and a rear caliper is locked up I said that will not fix my problem tho they assured me it would I said the whining sound is coming from the brake booster she tried telling me that it’s the engine because there is oil in the engine from leaks I had to tell her to think about that really…. An I approved rear caliper an front brakes bc they charged me $450 for two diags when it took them an hour to lie to me an I needed to spend $1000 for it to disappear an it came out to $1500 an the same symptoms happened car won’t break and pump whining an lights on before leaving they said oh well I left a bad review an owner of Toyota dealer said he would fix this an they been ignoring me since so I went to a Lexus specialist by me it’s going to cost $5000 for the brake booster MC and also Cam Seals, Water Pump, VVti Gear Seal, an timing belt and it’ll fully be fixed mechanically anything else I do is preventative maintenance like lower ball joints known to snap an destroy the fenders an diff fluid and oil pan gasket shit like that…. But this is why I work on my car myself but I’m 29 an ducked my body up already an can’t physically do any repairs right now so I’m stuck paying but it’ll be worth it low mileage car I already took it on a long 2000 mile road trip down the Blue Ridge Parkway which are steep mountains an back it handled it perfectly…

Keep it up don’t get discouraged 👍🏼

Never give up

bro honestly im laughing so hard rn he rlly said he got stickers cus he cant afford actual parts. Car looks good tho

ur funny bro keep it up lmfao reminds me when i was in high school

Ay I got the same exact car, pretty solid I'm not gonna lie to you. Planning on getting my paint fixed up and replace the right tail light since it got cracks in it. Solid car though man, I'm glad to see that I'm not the only one that got one of these :D

I bought a lower mileage es330 and I had a long list of repairs. I had to change every wear part on the car. Now the car is eating miles problem free. All in, 10k over four years of ownership. (purchase and repairs) It's really not bad considering the current shape of the car and the fact I plan to continue to drive it for the foreseeable future.

Brother i got me a 17 year old honda accord that ive spent tons in oil just to keep the engine going, and im right there with you lol. Still something about it draws me to wanna keep it. Its definitely a symbol of nostalgia of that time period to say the least. I hope you can get your lux machine running and going like new! Just like im planning with mine

You going to get through bro don't give up

I dont think ive ever seen a cv axel thats gotten stuck like that before, ive had some bad ones where theyve gotten stuck in the wheelbearing or whatever, so i find that kinda interesting. That does suck balls though.

es300 is a great car, my sister had two of them and they were both problem free

Wyatt, I would like to talk to you. I also have a 2001 Lexus ES300. I don't want to give you my email or phone number online so everyone can see it. What do you suggest?

'promo sm' 😕

My first car was an absolute nightmare, bought it for 800 bucks as well and the same night the fuel pump went out, eventually had to replace the starter too. Leaked oil and would misfire. Both CV axles went out, brakes went out while I was driving 55mph, and the fuel tank lines were leaking. Dumped over 3 grand into it. This was all in a 5 month timeframe btw 🤣 needless to say I’m very happy it’s gone. Bought my Genesis Coupe and haven’t had a single issue with it other than spark plugs.

when you do cv axles I recommend doing the wheel bearings at the same time

I am more cooked than everything dude

Wyatt you have a gyatt

Dude, you're learning NOT failing. Keep going - righty tighty, lefty loosey.... 🔧

you need to turn the bolts counter-clockwise to remove them. clockwise to install them.

RIGHTY TIGHTY LEFTY LOOSEY. You were tightening those bolts. keep wrenching we learn from mistakes ;0 Now 1000000 more bolts and you will have the mechanics touch good luck.

Marvel Mystery Oil. Liquid Wrench. WD40 isn't gonna get you there. Use a 6 pound sledge and tap end of socket wrench. Idea is to shock those threads. Snapped bolts will come out with vise-grip. Keep at it man 👍👍

Righty tighty, lefty loosy.

When did u get braces off

thanks man keep up the good work bro❤

Great vid, one of your best.. BMW my favorite ...
