I agree with this, but cant help to feel like people like this aren't really and fairly appreciated... it's always a thank you and forget you a week later. That's why I feel its only fair to give donators write offs. In poor countries a donation like this would have you be a family friend for life, but internet and modern money makes ppl feel this stuff is more normal and becomes undervalued.

It was a solid vehicle with just regular maintenance needs aside from the turbo replacement. $15,000 is a major overstatement, but I don't think that matters. What matters is that the family got a fantastic, reliable car when they needed it most.

@@mravocadoman2904 I spent $1200 on my first car, it was a 2003 Mazdaspeed Protege, had a turbo and was a 5 speed, worst and best decision I ever made and wouldn't do it differently other than keeping the car because I could've fixed it up and it'd be a race car right now. Im 21 now, I got that car when I was 16, I've had 4 cars since so ig for long term ownership Im not the best for advice but most of my cars have had 190k+ miles except the protege which was at like 136-7k, just had boost issues and would have electrical surges; after replacing the clutch and transmission that I blew doing a burnout at school, lighting everything up bright as shit and popping headlights/taillights when hitting boost it was a shit show. I got an Impala now making 305hp and its amazing ngl, thing smokes most cars Ive pulled on.

JESUS CHRIST died for you in a cross for our sins. 3 days after his death he resurrected and is The LIVING GOD. Repent from your sins and accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior in a prayer and also ask for the HOLY SPIRIT to come into you in that same prayer as well. You could come to Jesus Christ as you are, but once you accept Him, you have to become new, change, and be born again, and also turn away from your wicked ways. Jesus Christ is the Way, the Truth, and the Life. God Bless You.

You're like a role model for me, and kind of a father that I didn't have. I love cars since I was a kid, I had an old Peugeot but didn't have any ratchet or socket. I've literally cried first time in my life when I saw that toolbox for this family. Since I've watched Your videos I saved some money to buy some tools and I'm not affraid to work on anything car related. Kind of like father which shows to a kid first steps. You're the most inspiring person I know. I take off My hat to You. Don't ever change.

Honestly Chris, I don’t really get moved or motivated a lot. When it comes to “influencers, entertainers or educators” asking for money for causes or themselves. Yet you’ve always had my respect and follow. I’m struggling atm. Yet I’m willing to donate to this cause. Under my father’s name. Always followed the idea of. Helping each other is the key to a better future. My dad thought me that.

All the introductory repair information in one video as well as an incredible story of charity topped off with the best charity request I've seen in years. Bravo. You've earned every like, subscription, and dollar of this one!
@pcmasterracetechgod566011 ай бұрын
I doubt he will see this, but something I never see any mechanic do that at least I believe would be beneficial, is push the old bad fluids out like the old oil, transmission fluid, etc. A perfect example of why you'd wanna do this is right in this video when he checks the transmission fill level, a bunch of old black gunky liquid comes out, which otherwise would've been left in there if he hadn't checked the fill level, and even after doing so there is still likely a lot of the old fluid in there. Now I'm not saying to, for example, to do a double oil change just to clear out the old liquid, but what I do is let the oil drain all the way, then add in a bit of new oil with the drain still open so the new oil can somewhat wash out the rest of the old stuff. Just curious on others thoughts on this
@Cuandoman11 ай бұрын
You can do a complete transmission flush but it involves removing the pan or doing several transmission oil changes. I think for an introductory prep of a car for someone this is perfectly adequate.
@hiteshadhikari11 ай бұрын
In automatic transmissions, you should not do a complete change until u do it with machine esp in a high mileage car as the small ports for fluid movement might get blocked dye to debris The better way is to do a change which dilutes older dirty fluid while not doing a very drastic change altogether The new fluid will still do job much Better For a complete flush, u can change fluids 3 to 4 times and still some old dirty fluid will remain@@pcmasterracetechgod5660

I just realized I have beed watching you for more than five years, a little before your dream car video came out. You have always been a inspiration to me, because my dad is a mechanic in the military, I also wanted to know how to fix things, and I came across you. I would always watch you on my dads or mom’s phone. Without you and my dad I would have never had the inspiration of loving cars. I hope this 2$ helps, and thank you for always helping me out, and all of us out- I went back to check and i just realized that I have been watching you since your “how to strip a car” video. I will be honest and say I stopped watching when your driveway video came out, because it was like 2 months and you did not post a new video, and I just came back because you clicked in my mind, “wait, who is chris” and I typed in “chris” then you popped up! Ngl, I was hopping around😂. Oh and congrats on 10M subscribers, and I think whistlin diesel needs your help… his c10 is destroyed, and all of his other stuff is kinda… not so well. Oh and, he deff needs help with the monstermax! It would be a crazy colab, the fixer with the destroyer! Have a nice rest of your day chris!

From an exhaust manifold, full brake system flush/replacements, coolant flushes, A/C refrigerant refreshing, spark plugs, valve cover gasket, headlight restoration, and so many others that I'm sure I am forgetting. I went from a guy who couldn't even replace a battery or do an oil change, to someone who has troubleshooted and maintained my own cars for the last 10 years, and a major reason has been your encouragement and tutelage. You are a true hero, my dude.

It has seen me through everything and at 167,000 miles it’s a Cadillac! Your videos helped me so much and gave me incredible knowledge that helped me take care of this mechanical friend.
