  • Every time I watch him it reminds me of the story of the 3 guys captured during the war who knew a national security secret. They were tortured. After 1 hour the Frenchman gave up all he knew, after 2 hours the Swede gave up everything he had. Two days later Scotty still hadn't broken. They asked him why he didn't tell. He said he wanted to tell but they had his hands tied behind his back so he couldn't talk...
  • don’t even drive your car it’ll just wear it over time- scotty kilmer 2019

    Oh yes, you definitely need to clean up the carbon build up in a “old car.” I cleaned my fuel injectors, and intake manifold on my CRV 2000, and oh man, I wish I had done it earlier. It runs a whole lot better after the cleaning.
  • @dragossabin8265
    absolutely insane how many things i learned from scotty! i never was into cars untill i saw him, for real! Thank you Scotty if you're seeing this :D :) :)
  • @kungfooey6571
    Me: Hey Scotty, I'm having issues with my car, can you see what's wrong with it? Scotty: Yes, it's not a Toyota.

    Heh. Finally the time has come, for us, to REV UP THE ENGINE!
  • The coolant sprayed into WW2 engines was a water-methanol mix, and it worked in 3 ways: 1. Cooled intake air, colder air-fuel mixture in the chamber, less knock. Less knock meant you could run more boost for more power. 2. This colder charge, aside from aside from allowing more boost, allowed more dense air within the boost. 3. The methanol within the water acted as an octane booster, and water acted to inhibit combustion to reduce detonation. Thus, more boost. (or worse fuel)

    Everybody wishes they had a mechanic like Scotty!!!
  • @philfoster4298
    That’s what we told the county mounties when we were in High School, “we were just burnin’ the carbon out officer.”
  • @jthreejk67
    I love Scotty, he's told that Camry station wagon story more than once on a video
  • @aacar4095
    Thanks for the video as always! 1). As someone mentioned, I would send a camera down the intake manifold if you can to see the TOP of the valves...that's where the most carbon build up seems to happen in GDIs (or you'll see more clearly how seriously it is). 2). Question: I've used the CRC GDI intake cleaner but like Scotty, some say chunks could come off, hurt the cylinder, turbo, or CAT. Any opinions or experience?

    Here I go learning about things I didn’t know existed!

    Scotty- I have a 1966 304 International Harvester engine with last known odometer reading 186K. The thing ran pretty well prior to me removing the top end as part of a reseal effort (new seals, head gaskets, so on and so forth). Needless to say, there is a lot of carbon inside the engine. Overall (I only have one head off so far.) The combustion chamber, outside of a lot of carbon, looks pretty good. I have ordered a yellow Roloc bristle to clean the carbon. I am loosening the carbon with WD40. Anything else you think I should do? As a side note. Inside the cylinder, I plan to use a hand Scotchbrite - no mechanical. These old International Harvester 304 engines are bulletproof. So far there is no cylinder scoring. My intent is to clean it up, seal it up, and reassemble it. Thoughts?

    I brought a 2008 van in 2014.. Drove it round town mostly with a few 20mile trips doing 50-70mph mostly due to speed restrictions.. my friend drove it on a 100mile trip doing mostly 80mph.. when I got back behind the wheel the next day it felt like it had an overhaul.. Was so much more responsive on the throttle so a good run can do wonders for vehicles that has just been driven round town slowly
  • @JohnnyRebKy
    My grandpa always said “ blow the soot out of it” lol. It was funny to watch that old man hammer down on his truck every now and then after driving 25mph all the time
  • @msanda6767
    Scotty, you are a legend. Lots of love from Turkey.
  • @tinbus149
    Same issue with GM 5.3 engines. Scotty is an amazing mechanic. I appreciate you.
