Are you sure Amazon doesn't sell common sense? Maybe I'll try ebay or Wal-Mart.

[@marcryvon]

About boosting a dead battery: NEVER, EVER put the negative cable clip on the battery as you did. Discharged batteries emit hydrogen. A little spark will ignite it instantly. Disaster. You clip the negative as far as possible from the battery, on frame or engine parts. And you install the cables on the dead car FIRST then on the healthy car battery, engine non-running, you could damage/fry your alternator electronics. Hey, I know, I live in Canada. Gets frigging cold up here sometimes. Done a lot of boosting in my 45 driving years

You should have mentioned that the easiest way to determine which is the positive and negative battery terminal, is the positive one is always bigger. So ft the markings are hidden, just stand directly over the battery and look down and it's easy to see that the positive terminal is always a lot bigger than the negative :-)

I swear to God, I'm not making this up!!! The oil was so black, it looked like Tar! We had people coming in ALL the time, with literally ZERO OIL in the engine too! Not a DROP from the filter or drain plug....Seen it with my own eyes like 10 fucking times. Most of these people drove OVER an Hour with No Oil! Just to get to our shop.

Love watching your stuff!! NEVER QUIT!!

[@ARedneckBrony]

Hey Scotty, I'm so so sorry but I just have to prove you wrong on the first one about jump starting. When I went to school I was told never to jump start a car by connecting both of the ground (negative) terminals. Instead connect both positive terminals first and one ground terminal to the other battery and the other on a ground source (header,block,frame...etc) away from the battery. this prevents a possible hydrochloric explosion provided from the arc when connecting the ground cable to the terminal. Most vehicles nowadays have a labeled ground source post in the engine bay.

What about placing the final negative connection to an exposed metal part of the stalled vehicle's engine, away from the battery and carburetor/fuel injection system?

Another way to check the terminals on a battery is to follow a lead and see where is goes, if it is bolted to the cars bodywork then it is the negative terminal.

HAHAHA! I was working at Moss Motors Dodge in Riverside, CA back in the late 90's. So a customer brings in his 96 RAM pickup with the 5.2L Magnum engine in because of a rough running engine. It had 42,000 miles on it. So we went out to look at the truck, pulled the oil cap off while it was running, and it blew all kinds of smoke and oil droplets out. So we pulled it into the service bay and put it up on the rack. When we looked underneath it, it still had the original oil filter from the factory. lol... The guy asked us if we would replace his engine under warranty. lol Man. I could go on all day about some of these people.

i like his presentation , he gets his point across. easy to follow, an remember ! and, has good info for the average car owner ! also, he comes off as someone you can trust ... just sayin'

[@siranderoo389]

Thank you so much for making this! I bought a car 2 months ago and the estimated gas remaining was 50 miles left, then the car stalled and wouldn't turn over, since the fuel pump is 17 years old I think since then it's been struggling but now I know why! Thank you!

[@degenret01]

3-4k miles between oil changes is the biggest scam ever perpetrated on car owners. If you drive an old beater in the city with lots of stop and go, you might, might, need to change it at 4-5k. My 2012 Honda just had its first oil change at 8500 miles with 15% oil life remaining. Newer cars have sensors or computers to tell you when to change it. Follow it. We could save 100 million gallons of oil if we did the oil changes when we are supposed to instead of when the sellers of oil tell us to.

dat editing tho xD great video mate, loving the enthusiasm

[@spino138]

Wow, I never knew anti-freeze needs to be changed. Thanks for the info.

[@War_Junkies]

My father passed 4 month ago, and now i have to take care his car, but hey i found your channel. It really help me.

[@justing100jg]

only if i saw this video yesterday.. would have saved me hundreds of dollars. im crying on the inside

[@scoobister5482]

SpaceMan freaky idiot

[@seabass22]

What did you do

[@lexbeltran1354]

What happened?

[@duytungphammotorvn]

sounds like you tried to start the engine with an empty tank

[@dickJohnsonpeter]

This video can't give you common sense, which is all it contained. So, you would have fucked it up anyway, and will again.

[@KatyBauer1]

As far as jumping a car, I was always told that you connect positive to positive and negative to a ground point on the car that is being jumped, never + to + and - to -.

[@DougCeleste]

+Katy Bauer You got that right and not sure why Scotty did NOT mention that VERY important point! Putting the final cable to the negative side of the charging battery could cause sparks which could cause an explosion.

[@fuknames2123]

positive to positive and negative to negative on the working car. Positive to positive and negative to ground on the dead car.

[@TheGuruStud]

+Doug Celeste You explosion myth lovers are hilarious.

[@DougCeleste]

+TheGuruStud It is NOT a myth since it DOES happen! And then it is NOT hilarious!

[@TheCoolStuffHD]

+Doug Celeste I've been jumping cars that way for years and never had an explosion. But it has become a recent habit on connecting + to + and - to - on the working car and + to + and - to unpainted ground on the dead car.

[@germs4156]

I just started watching this channel,I love his advice and how well he explains everything :):)! +1 sub

[@OldNewSweetRides]

[@Voodoo381]

This guy is awesome, really funny and informative. He didn't bore me to tears with alot of car technical terms. Got right to the point so I can better take car of my baby, I mean my car.

[@linkthyme953]

Scotty Kilmer is definitely my go to car guy on here, I've learned a lot just from watching things like this.

[@MegaGreat25]

I watched this a couple of times just to see him in the trunk! Scotty got’em lol love it Scott!!!

[@quantametric]

So many unnecessary camera angles! I'm actually impressed that you have that much time to waste.

[@purplexenno]

+Quantametric Coluccio i feel like i've just watched one of those Lesko commercials. I think i need to wash my eyes...

[@ISTHEMAGICINME]

+purplexenno My father! matt lesko :P horrible commercials haha

[@DoctorBrodski]

+americannovice americannovice Yeah, but the question is, what will he be squirting?

[@OliverUnderTheMoon]

+Chockarblock Fully-synth.

[@dsalaz04]

It makes the videos more interesting. Why do you think he has so many viewers

[@warrior7772]

Another dumb thing to do is lock yourself in the trunk, hehe.

[@funnypranker34]

Mechanics know how to open trunks front he inside

[@101Volts]

That's not such a problem with a lot of cars made since 2001; they have little "open Trunk" switches inside them.

[@funnypranker34]

Ok Austin Lucas, if there is a open trunk switch, where is it on a 1996 honda accord lx and on a 2005 honda odyssey ex-l??

[@funnypranker34]

And yes Austin Lucas i actually locked myself in the trunk once and cant get out

[@101Volts]

Peter Kapica Sorry, I have no idea. I didn't say such a switch is in a 1996 Honda, but there might be one in the 2005 Honda. I just read that cars made in 2001 and since then have that kind of a switch.

[@pantslizard]

so Scotty used to be a paratrooper...ok...cool...

[@peerasian11]

pantslizard caught that 101st plate too

[@AStanton1966]

I wonder if he ever jumped without a chute?

[@vtroygohokies3230]

I believe his son is Army airborn

[@hubertmantz1516]
