[@gurkhacohiba7892]

Informative video. Did you forget to plug in the hanging wire back in when you put the intake on? I noticed it towards the end around 7:30.🤷🏻

How much did you charge? some one wants me to do the same job ...

[@TheYouTubeMechanic]

Sorry I don't remember. I use all data to find labor times. I charge $150/hr plus trip fee plus parts.

The coolant sludge is caused by a failed oil cooler, causing inter mix

[@saiff7769]

Did you have to drain the coolant? I know you said there is no coolant there but not sure if you drained it before

[@TheYouTubeMechanic]

I don't think I drained the coolant. I don't remember.

[@billywalker8375]

Looks like water 😅 the oil

[@gurkhacohiba7892]

I’m talking about the plug at 0:50

[@TheYouTubeMechanic]

yeah i probably didn't plug that in. it got towed in the end.

Informative video but i think you should have flushed it before putting a new thermostat on.

[@TheYouTubeMechanic]

Yeah you're right. This guy didn't want that though.

[@songs9770]

So it doesn’t need a thermostat housing gasket ?

[@TheYouTubeMechanic]

Not on this one

[@JohnDough-d6o]

Wow. that "coolant" looked horrible. Last time I've seen something like that in person was when I blew a head gasket and some oil was mixed in.

[@TheYouTubeMechanic]

Yeah that's what it looks like may have happened here. Like and subscribe!

Need to bleed the coolant system

[@TheYouTubeMechanic]

Bro what? How? This dude had yogurt in his tubes.

[@freddysoriano6058]

How do you bleed it????

[@MrNunu1993]

You forgot to replug the sensor put coolant in the resovoir bleed out the system and test drive it ?

[@TheYouTubeMechanic]

Thank you!

[@gerardoordonez428]

Head gasket probably

[@TnP_GAMER]

So much you did not do when replacing the thermostat! you cut way to many corners on it. The belts should have been removed first before removing the hose. and the sludge you found in the thermostat was also on where you put the thermostat back in. It should have been cleaned out completely because that part that blew off will just do it again and that Sludge will just get back on the thermostat. This was just a quick fix that wont last more then a year depending on how much the car is used! You also didnt tell people what to do after installing the new thermostat! which will cause even more problems if you do not do it! I know not to stop at that auto place!

[@TheYouTubeMechanic]

This car got towed. Thanks for the comment.

[@swym6606]

Why didn't you put in a new thermostat?

[@AshleySincox]

Helpful video, But did you realize you forgot to reconnect the electrical wire that you had unplugged? LOL Forgetfulness might be why you have lost all of your 10mm wrenches! LOL

[@TheYouTubeMechanic]

Where were you when I needed you?

[@gasquirewell]

[@judyhammarstedt7050]

You forgot to plug that thing in

[@TheYouTubeMechanic]

Need to bleed the coolant system bro

[@TheYouTubeMechanic]

How? This dude had yogurt in his tubes

[@ponder20]

[@hectorrzepeda2998]

That's looks like oil leaking inside the cooling system 🤑

[@TheYouTubeMechanic]

Yeah, it was pretty nasty. Like and subscribe!

[@ponder20]

[@aukfan33]

Looks like someone put a radiator seal product into the system.

[@KingRahTheRich1]

Damn bro u forgot to connect that cable under the engine covers

[@TheYouTubeMechanic]

Thank you!

[@BriskWintun]

Bleed the system

[@TheYouTubeMechanic]

What in the world could you mean? The coolant is a sludge.

[@rickybecerra5785]

That is what happens when you use hose water and not distilled. That is why it looks all nasty

[@hemilife7079]

Umm looks like you forgot to reconnect the sensor to the intake.

[@TheYouTubeMechanic]

🤦

[@jimjones1678]

What in the heck is in that cooling system. Is it an oil mixture from the head gasket? Looks horrible and needs to be flushed out at a minimum. Nice video 👍
