Rainy afternoon Scotty. 🌨️🌨️🌨️

[@Sunset4Semaphores]

Oh Scotty... :P

[@1985Sabrerider]

Thank you scotty for getting back to what people care about I get tired of hearing about electric vehicles

[@Nozinbonsai]

And politics.

[@outdoorswithjt6652]

Watched the whole thing and you never came close to dieing. I've been robbed

[@jasonelliot9633]

😂 That's nothing new the headling has nothing to do with the video

[@outdoorswithjt6652]

@jasonelliot9633 yeah got more lives than a cat

[@girrrlplease5485]

The A+ quality of video content you give me on a daily basis is amazing, thanks man.

[@woodie70hudson87]

I've always worked on my own cars since I've been old enough to own one. The more you can do yourself, the less you can get ripped off! I've replaced brakes, rotors, batteries, alternators, radiators, serpentine belt s, light bulbs, fuses mufflers and hoses, You can't do everything, but the more you can do yourself, the more you save and you know it's done right!😁

[@barryklinedinst6233]

There are so many shops that will lie about what's wrong with your vehicle. I do what I can myself.

Nice to hear you without yelling Scotty. Cheers from Australia.

"There are a lot of things you can do yourself." Scotty Kilmer 👍👍👍

[@randybeard6040]

I have a Next Door mechanic that retired and opened his own shop, he was a GM and Toyota certified Mechanic for years. He charges $85 per hour and knows what he is doing, does not drag butt and run up your bill. Sometimes He actual has more business than he wants...

[@garylee2976]

Scotty thank you for all of the free information and content. God bless you and your family 🙏🙏😇😇 AMEN.

[@Stopcrying70]

I got the impact wrench. Can't wait to use it to do the brakes.

[@Zzrdemon6633]

My Milwaukee impact has 1400ft/lbs removal torque! stronger than any air impact I've ever had

[@MrPoppyDuck]

Interesting to hear about Scotty's problem about having complete tool sets at the two homes that he owns. I wish I could afford that problem. 😊

[@softest_eevee]

“When things don’t go right, smash em”

[@Jonathans1776]

Need more of these kinds videos

[@chippywarren9706]

You're an amazing guy Scotty. I do just about everything myself now. There are still times, but mostly me. Thank you.

[@VoodooViking]

I always bought the official service manual for whatever vehicle I had. And I went and bought every tool they stated in the manual. Then put them aside to work specifically on that vehicle. Which a lot of times I bought separate versions of the same tool(s). I had my little 4x4 space specifically setup for working on that vehicle. Like I just did the same with an evo sportster I just purchased, but living in an apartment I bought a pack out system from Milwaukee and put everything in there. Plus a couple totes and a had a stainless steel 3x4 table from a truckstop I acquired to work on stuff. I put their 3x8 table in my kitchen I’m redoing.

[@barryklinedinst6233]

I love learning from Scotty. I really believe hes a good and honest guy

[@komradkolonel]

I figure the tools that are an absolute must are a good socket set with 3/8" and 1/2" adapters, high quality screwdrivers, and the longest breaker bar you can find. You use those simple tools more than anything else. Along with a good, high output flashlight. You will need that at some point.

[@MrPoppyDuck]

I found a three pound sledge easier to handle under a car as the one Scotty showed us wont fit easily in a wheel well when working on brakes.

[@epatters1494]

Keep the product review videos coming, I love tools.

[@edstevens1435]

9:13 If you have a floor jack use the handle for a cheater pipe.

[@danielfernandez235]

Scotty, I admire the work you do and appreciate your advice, hooked from the first video I saw! Wanted your advice on a mid range pickup truck. I know you are a diehard toyota advocate, what's your opinion on the mitsubishi l200 turbo diesel 2.4? Do you think it's worth buying the standard transmission instead of the automatic. Don't drive that much every day and like dribinh standard allso as an industrial engineer I mostly do all the work in my cars when the warranty expires, so the nissan frontier 6 cylinder is allso in my mind. Hope to find you well and keep up the good work! Daniel Fernández.

[@velocast]

Scotty rocks! Harbor Freight the way to go. DIY yay

[@ThomasWBaldwin]

Groovy man! I am in "Spencer Gifts" again! I can smell the incense....😃

[@OnTheAir]

"Test rather than guess." Great quote from Scotty.

[@chrisfrey6788]

Scotty is the coolest. He doesn’t even need to try.

[@robertlawrence9000]

So many times I seen people destroy, mess up and cause extra downtime on machines when they use impacts and drills for fasteners. They should only be used to take fasteners off not putting on or you will over tighten, strip out or break fasteners. Use a proper torque wrench on very important critical fasteners.

[@johnshelton8441]

Thanks Scotty!

[@tracybrooks215]

Harbor freight Hercules and Ryobi impacts cordless is the cheapest best for diy and some real mechanics

[@stevenweiss2148]

There are some jobs i quit doing myself Because at 73 years old i have no liking anymore to crawl underneath (i dont have a lift) to change my oil. Whats more my engine warrenty is still in force and i got all the docs to prove it. That is a area that Scotty needs to discuss in his videos.

[@ThomasKing19933]

Scotty calls people stupid and he doesn't care😂

[@modus_operandi2508]

Ironically most people are

[@eugeneczerwinskyj3354]

I agree with Scotty.

[@MeSukeeSukee]

I do too. The censorship will show you otherwise .

[@samuelhoward8504]

Something we shouldnt have stopped doing lmao

[@siyabonganqayana]

That word does not have a meaning, it's an encouraging term, churches and the education system very much changed a number of words, sorry for interference

[@renkhachatoorian302]

The best way to maintain your car is using the right tools. I love Scotty's word.

[@PaulFischer-o5c]

The battery lawnmower mulched Scotty on Monday. Wait for it...Scotty will RIP on Friday.

[@Michael-yi4mc]

Scotty was a salesman in his past life. Zig Ziglar trained him.

[@deetee3153]

Stupid is as stupid does...

[@P_Ezi]

That's what momma always said

[@tcandle695]

Thanks Scotty 🙋‍♂️

[@laurieannerodriguez5946]

Thank you Scotty!

[@wtmayhew]

It used to be if you cut a Harbor Freight wrench with a hacksaw there’d be voids in the metal. I suspect HF’s lawyers realized it would be cheaper to sell decent wrenches than pay for law suits of people who had the wrenches snap and get seriously injured. I’m with Scotty that these days, a HF wrench is probably 95% as good as Snap On. Most of the time that 5% less quality won’t get you into trouble. Husky tools from Home Depot are also generally reasonable as are Kobalt from Lowes. The older Kobalt tools were a little nicer than what is being sold now.

[@arlen1630]

I was just thinking how cool would it be to have Scotty as a neighbor😮 just make sure you've got something he needs to borrow once in a while😊

[@TheWilliambinder]

I’ve read the Daytona jack is made by the same company that makes Snap-On jacks.

[@dixiesmaster]

One advantage to having Scotty work on your car is you might get a free socket. Great vid.

[@MAC...007]

Thanks Scotty.🙂

[@HungryH1951]

I just stick with Makita and DeWalt. Rarely have problems. Once bought a Ryobi sander. Used it once put it away on the shelf for a year. Turned it back on a year later and it exploded into 100 pieces. Don't use that brand anymore.

[@Mia-single]

Scotty knows his work.

[@InMoneroWeTrust]

ENLG you got a tongue ring?

[@melissasmess2773]

I work in a shop, the rechargeable impact was convenient but heavier than an air impact and batteries never last.

[@Hutch1211]

one more good old scotty im telling yah watch diys well then do it your self :)

[@Nukem6477]

The noise tool was picking up Scotty's voice!😂😂😂😂

[@jaysmith262]

Spot on with the baby sledge hammer.....its a fix all tool.

[@foodeattechnology2868]

Thank you Scotty…best must have video!!!!!

[@andythompson3528]

I have the Milwaukee combination wrench sets and they’ve been great. Not too expensive but not so cheap that they’re just trash.

[@jefferyschirm4103]

Don’t almost everyone need a lil welding torch set ?!

[@ornatehammer661]

Today i worked on a Rusty mercedes sprinter, i had a breakerbar, pipe, jumped on it just to take the wheels off, the battery impact didn't have enough power for that though was fully charged, also broke a 19mm impact socket in the process

[@DumpsterElite]

I have the exact same jack. Best floor jack I've ever had

[@darrencunningham8346]

Thanks Scott. What about torque wrenches you recommend?

[@CCPCrusher]

Bosch and otc tools suck too. Try filing a replacement or dealing with Bosch lousy software. And they use China steel.

[@TylerMogan]

Strange. Eight years ago you did a video on the Chasis Ear (the quality version of what you are using in this one) and said not to buy the corded one. You had the real deal cordless one from Steelman. None of the three have updated at all. I wonder why the change in opionion? This one has horrible reviews online so I just ordered the the corded Steelman brand myself.

[@Fatboy.25]

Great video Scotty

[@nicholasgranat2999]

They sell alot of junk! But also the good stuff!

[@tracybrooks215]

Scotty is like Santa Claus in July

[@jeff6969]

I just joined the Harbor Freight inside track club. 30 bucks a year, and you get extra discounts, member only discounts, etc. Their Pittsburg and Icon tools have lifetime warranties as well.l

[@michaelduke4500]

A man can never have enough tools.

[@ThomasWBaldwin]

those crow's foot wrenches are required to remove and install sensors, so you can get it out past the wire.

[@JeffCD77]

Besides maybe some dealerships, who is charging over $200/hr? I've NEVER seen a rate that high. My guy is $75 and he’s really good and extremely popular. Highest I've seen (outside of the dealership) is probably $120.

[@danhectic5629]

gas stations with attached shops in Des Moines Iowa charge like $150/hr.

[@Ален-ь2в]

In La a lot

[@Krideezy]

Good luck getting a price like that in California

[@AdamVest]

Any big city in Texas $200 but we tend to have pretty good mechanics that are worth the money.

[@JeffCD77]

@@AdamVest Yeah, my mechanic is amazing too (he used to travel the country to train other mechanics) but he only charges $75. That doesn't mean a $200/hr mechanic is any better than a $75/hr one.

[@nuthinbutlove]

Thanks Scotty

[@TheEtherea]

Interesting I've never encountered those crows before. But I did swear a lot trying to deal with small spaces working on a vehicle. That is true about sockets, it doesn't matter if you are careful about them or not these guys do like to get lost sometimes. Funniest I had was when I was replacing parts of suspension on my S210 Mercedes years ago, while it started snowing outside and as one can imagine I had lost a bunch of small sockets that day. lol.

[@marcuspeters3894]

Scotty knows his work

[@PaulN-x2q]

Without looking at the manuals, do I need to store my hydraulic jack and engine crane in the open position, like Scotty's floor jack?

[@TOLDUSO4EVS7676]

Hey Scotty I lose my MIND more then I lose tools😂😂😂 working on today's CARS!!!! 😂😂😂😂

[@jdlives8992]

It’s not rocket science. Go to a pawnshop to get your wrench’s and sockets as a set or, I go to the flea markets for them. Usually can get 10 8mm 10mm 12 and 14mm for 2 bucks. Flea markets for hard tools is the right spot. Don’t buy used air tools there or electric ones less they have 0 wear.

[@jamescaron6465]

I used to get tons of used tool truck tools that way. For Pennies on the dollar. Not anymore though.

[@MeSukeeSukee]

I knew someone that got a snap-on industrial roll box loaded with snap-on sets from a tweaker for 500$ looked new too I almost fell out of my chair

[@jamescaron6465]

⁠@@MeSukeeSukeeholy moly I would have!!! That’s like stealing

[@MeSukeeSukee]

@@jamescaron6465 imo that's more like being at the right place at the right time

[@saltlickone290]

I do appreciate you taking the time to explain things. I would have never known if not for you. Started working on lawnmowers at 10 years old. I actually have 3 tools from then. I do love my tools. You are nothing without your tools. I always judge a man on the kind of tools he has. A man with weak wimpy tools is usually a weak wimpy man. And you can’t take someone like that seriously. Learned a lot from you THANKS.

[@stoundingresults]

I'm a harbor freight man from when you get a free flashligt with cupon

[@JackalGB]

Those 120v impact wrenches (Scotty shows a Porter Cable version, I have a different brand) are excellent for getting lug nuts off. 😃👍

Scotty you need to branch out a little and start giving advice on things other than cars like relationship advice whether it's marital or parental or social - or maybe financial advice - cause you kinda cover that any way with your car advice - I know alot of people that would benefit with your general wisdom and knowledge beyond your knowledge of car repair starting with me !!!
