[@MultiNutterbutter]

+oldskool funk Hey, oldskool funk, would you recommend I do this test on my car? I suspect I have a possibly worn piston ring(s) issue... I lose a good amount of oil over a small amount of time but my car does not leak at all. Im guessing the oil is being burnt but no smoke is coming out of the exhaust. I changed my oil and over the first 1000 miles i had to add a qt. then after about another 700 I had to add another qt. and now at just under 3000 miles after doing my oil I had to add another 1.5 qt of oil in. Any ideas?

[@treydaypnw]

Man dude keep it up I respect your message and love your videos! Keep up the good work and keep the videos coming!

[@treynathaniel4075]

It's awesome you are teaching your daughter and she's paying attention. I have four boys and none of them want to learn any of this.

[@oldskoolfunk71]

I also have a 13 yr old son and he does not like working on cars like his sister does I told him soon im going to get his butt out there lol

[@sire612]

knowledge is nothing if retained to oneself. teaching the world of your ways is an added bonus to your loved ones absorbing your philosophy. Good luck and god bless my friend.

I'm really not the type to comment on youtube videos, but I felt moved by your testimony. I'm a student in a Diesel Technology course a few months away from attaining my A.A.S degree. I hope to secure a position as a diesel mechanic after I graduate. I just wanted to let you know that you had a motivational impact on me brotha.. Thanks, keep up the good work!!

thank you

[@davidreynolds3796]

I'm sure you get a lot of compliments on you videos but I'm still giving you one. I've a mechanic for 20 years now and probably lost some fire for what I do but your message gave me some hope. Rock on, brother.

I need that because I'm tryna fix my car and it has no compression in 2 cylinders. I use to be in the streets and selling drugs and had addictions to gambling more than drugs but they equally effected my life. I stopped hanging with dudes who were fucking up my growth. Didn't learn my lessons until late 20s and started fixing myself in my early 30s. God bless this man and everyone.

Great post!!! Thanks for taking time to show compression test procedures

[@freeryder4891]

Powerful messages! First half of the video is top notch repair instruction. The second half is top notch life coaching and motivation/ guidance which hit me squarely. Thank you Brother. You HAVE been blessed. You could have a large role in things with your strong communication style and presence. 👍

hey oldskool funk-i came upon your site by accident and im glad i did. after watching your video on truing up a cylinder head with sandpaper i was speechless. im 64 and after a lot of years doing my own maintence and rebuilds(mostly on older vehicles with cast iron engines(remember that?) i was impressed not only with your automotive knowledge but your vids on how to save a buck! but being a christian myself i was totally blown away by your message. God is truely with you! you are truely a desciple of Jesus.

[@biggil0621]

Brother oldschool funk I must tell you. I have watched Eric the car guy many times in the past but, I have never enjoyed watching him like I enjoy watching and hearing you share your knowledge. That is truly unselfish of you to share this knowledge. You resemble the one you claim to follow. God bless you!

Great job explaining this! It's unfortunate many people don't even know how to do an oil change, let alone do any other work to their cars, so it's great you posted this.

[@harsha4303]

you are a great teacher...hats off to you ..from Sri Lanka....love you, man...it's like watching a movie.

[@LukedaBoot]

I wanted to thank you for all of your videos, you go through the motions and explain everything very well. You remind me a lot of my dad when you talk, I'm going to school for automotive tech and I wanted to thank you for your words at the end of the video. I have struggled with drugs and alcohol myself, I have been sober since august 27th 2015 and I feel like I'm ready to tackle school and better my life with something I love. Thank you for your words of encouragement.

[@jojojeep1]

I like the way you finished the video with the word of God most important thing, more important than any leak down test brother

[@boots7859]

Came here after watching ETCG doing a leak down test. He's good, but I've subbed to you because it looked like you were in teaching mode, and you went so far as to do simple diagrams that were just that extra 10% above most others. Gotta catch up on the rest of your videos.

[@i_sushkov]

spectacular way of sharing the hands on experience with the audience here. nice stuff! hello from Russia!

[@guybralley4971]

The reason you pull all the plugs out is so you get the same cranking rpm. If you leave plugs in you have compression resistance from the other cylinders. You want accurate readings so like he said pull all the plugs. I have been doing this for 30 years. Thanks for helping those that are trying to learn.

[@rupert1124]

Hello oldskool . I really like what you do and the way you explain engines. I'm watching your videos here in Ireland and just can't get enough. You even bring in life and how to live better and help others. Keep on doing it.

[@night4lover]

I didn't put effort in these test before starting my current project of overhauling the motor on my wife's car. It was leaking oil... main seal and developed a massive coolant leak to outside looks like a core plug on back of the block. I would have done a leakdown for comparison if I had a leakdown tester. It was not necessary, After watching this I will be making one of those from scrap. Thank you for this demonstration

[@shadowmoses8204]

Just wanted to say thank you for your knowledge and passion. You sound just like my dad! I've always been strong in my faith and all my passions. I'm going through a tight spot in life but God always has my back so I keep fighting and pushing. Also, I have the same issue with my wife's car and haters too, family of mechanics. They dont want to do the work but its for my wife so I will learn whatever it takes to take care of her. My first work on a car was fixing her timing belt and with good faith I took my time and got it done right! I was very proud. After watching your whole video, you gave me the will to block those people out and go forward full strength, no stopping ever! Thank you so much again my man. God bless you and all your loved ones

[@W96NZ]

Hey man really appreciate everything you've done. I'm into Honda's and love working on them, but gotta say keep doing what you do. Keep up the great work HOMIE!!

Best video out there on training diagnosis of a no start bad compression. Kudos man

[@georgemarnell]

Man! Thanks so much! I came to your video indirectly (checking compression / leak down test methods in general - for me, motorcycle :>) Not only did you 'drop knowledge' on me from a physical standpoint (and man, you got a lot of knowledge), but you have also raised my spirit with your knowledge of Jesus Christ! Thanks again, and keep up the good work. May God continue to Bless YOU!

[@davidprescott8041]

I don't know how I found your video in my desperation to diagnose a low compression issue in my car , but I have to tell you man, now I know what I'm doing thanks to you. I sincerely appreciate you for sharing your knowledge. You're an awesome teacher.

You remind me of my uncle he was a smart cat, taught me a lot about cars but always kept it old school! God bless big homie!

[@rbilardo47]

Great video. You explained everything in layman terms so everyone can understand. Great Job. I enjoyed listening to you teach. BUT! What I really enjoyed is your Preaching of Jesus the Christ, Amen Brother. I pray you touched the lives of many young ones who are watching this video, to turn to God for everything. Thank you so much. God Bless.

[@webbysbass]

God Bless you young man you say you pray to learn this stuff,I think it's more like your mind is clear your eyes and your ears are open and you learned to keep your mouth shut until it was time to ask about something you my not have understood that way you were not breaking in to a mind set of this is to hard to do or I will never be able to learn this and you were not stopping someone else from learning. In fact you were helping the instructor teach and inadvertently helping others to learn if in fact they were willing to and wanted to learn. So in fact you were thanking God for your clear mind open eyes and open ears witch you being like me allowed you to learn and the instructor to teach those who like you and I had the passion for this. So you like I thanked God through PRAYER as I have for years for giving you the Ability to do the three things I said in the beginning, because if you don't do the things I said you stop yourself from and anybody else from learning and you stop the Instructor from teaching and that my friend is showing Respect not only to the instructor to guys that want to become a wrench as we did but to God for showing you the way and God love ya for doing so cause we know it works. Don't ever forget a little PRAYER goes a long way. I'm 63 and have been wrenching since the late 60s but really started getting paid for it in 73 when I got a job as a fleet mechanic and retired now .But I want to thank you for doing it the way you did and are doing you said it you can't take it with you so help the ones in need pass on your love and knowledge for this as you are God Bless you young man for being who YOU ARE.

Hi , i from Mauritius island ,i love your video ' i learn a lot on it . May God bless you man
