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...

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

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.

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 :) :)

That’s what we told the county mounties when we were in High School, “we were just burnin’ the carbon out officer.”

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)

I love Scotty, he's told that Camry station wagon story more than once on a video

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

Heh. Finally the time has come, for us, to REV UP THE ENGINE!

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

Everybody wishes they had a mechanic like Scotty!!!

I need a Kilmer key chain or bobble head so I can carry a good mechanic with me always.

I’ve been wondering if I really needed this for my 160,000 highway miles car. Car runs great so I’m not gonna touch a thing

I did an induction service on my 08 Lexus GS 350 it has 119,000mi it was running just okey and those car are known for carbon deposits/buildup issue , after done the service at a professional mechanic the car drives like a dream 👌

We used the 3C machine at our shop from ATS on a ton of VW and BMW's. It works fantastic! Way better then pulling the intake manifold.

I love how scotty is always swinging his arms around

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.

Cleaning the throttle intake valves on my 02 VW Jetta helped a lot. I had my local shop do the service and they re-home the air intake valve. Before I had what seemed like transmission shifting issues like cold start it would jump into 2nd gear and after long trips it had rough shifting. After the intake valve cleaning this got fixed. The cost is way cheaper than a transmission. This didn't improve the MPG but overall performance improved with normal shifting.

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?
