Be sure to watch the entire video all the way though so it makes it on the Trending page! This kind of information is super important so lets get this video on UA-cam Trending so everyone can learn!
I showed this video to my mom, whom actually believed she needed to get this done; just yesterday, she literally went to the dealership and asked if they could swap the air with winter air, since winter is somewhat soon...I got in trouble, but it was worth it.
Holy shit, I just did this! I measured my top speed with winter air - barely 112mph! Then I switched to Summer air and I'm already up to 126!!! Thanks Chris! ✌
Nuwanda84 before u carry on pushing it u need to put new piston return springs and muffler bearings also u need high performance blinker fluid unless ur a bmw driver
My dad told me when I was a kid to always when driving an automatic shift to P (power) when going over 85 for a more stable ride. This works especially well with summer air. To this day I swear by it.
I showed my wife this and she called a mechanic. The mechanic was like " ummm uhhh yeah... we can change your tyres to summer air. What type of summer air tho do U want, the standard or the premium summer air?" What a crook hey trying to take advantage
2:55 'If you are getting your car serviced, just ask the mechanic to fill your tires with summer air...' God, please, i hope, i HOPE someone actually did that.
For saying it's a joke, the effort you put into this video was impressive. The video is super convincing, I might swap out the winter air now thinking about it...
He makes it so seriously that i'm not ashamed to say that last year i got my self cought up in the Muffler bearings video. Only at the end i realised it was a joke video xD
The guys at auto zone were so helpful in getting my tires switched over to summer air they even called the police to help and the police let me try on the cuffs and ride in the back to the station
Don't use it. Temporal mechanics is confusing, and the smallest change to the past can change the future drastically. It also requires 1.2*10^9W or 0x481F2280W to initialize.
I actually thought this was a serious vid until I saw some joking in the comments, then realized how weird all the inconsistencies in the video were, and that there was a card in the top right for a vid on how to change your blinker fluid
Today's date is Sept. 10th, 2019. About 5:39 in, I thought to myself "Huh, I've never seen cans of summer or winter air before on those shelves." Then it dawned on me. I checked the posted date. I'm ashamed to even call myself a minor enthusiast, gonna go trade in my Altima for a Yaris now.
I just switched my tires from winter air to summer air and then it snowed again yesterday so I had to switch back to winter air so I could get to the store. Talk about a bummer. I wish they would make Early Spring Air so that I dont have to keep switching back and forth right now. Love the EE collaboration!
@@jimmymoral2181 it makes so much sense and coming from a trusted source, of course it sounds real. Could be true on a very small scale but it really doesn’t matter what air you got as long as it has pressure.
LMAO my steering/suspension instructor told us he just had someone ask for him to switch the air in his tires from winter to summer and he did it for $20
Just recently realized I have been fooled for 2 years. Ever since I watched this video when it first came out, I have been instructing my friends about this and bringing their cars including mine to deflate the cold air from the past winter and to fill up some warmer air on a hot day in the summer. Really felt that weight savings and relatively some extra horsepower right after every time I changed them out lol.
Make sure she checks out her blinker fluid, her piston return springs, her muffler bearing, and her winter and summer air checked all in one. This whole process extends the life of the car by a lot when all of these are checked and replaced.
So I have essentially no car maintenance experience, but I did take four years of chemistry in college, and around the point Engineering Explained said that based on his 75 years of experience that Summer air was an ideal gas but Winter air wasn't, I was like, "would that make any difference in compressibility?" Whenever someone is encouraging me to go to a mechanic or auto supply store and ask for something I've never heard of before, I am suspicious lol. Kind of incredible the amount of time you must have put into those labels.
Aisle! While you are getting your left-handed screwdriver, ensure you ask for a long weight, chances are they will not have one on the shelf, and so will need to have a look for them out the back.
Spray down the valve area with blinker fluid to make sure all winter air has been flush out. Remember to do it so that no winter air is left in the tire
Yeah, that engineer explained it pretty well, I learned it in physics in school, that's why I always change all the air on my tyres completely every 6 months. Good thing Chris went over it in the video. Please share to let other people know, it would really increase their tyre life
I work in transportation, a Procurement officer asked me if I knew about this . He told me it is a thing he watched the video and I should look in to it . I watched it, I couldn’t believe they where selling this . Glad I watched till the end . You could market this and make millions I’m sure !
Leave it to Chris fix to go above and beyond for an ultimate April fool's. I was super confused at first. I love how he got Jason from engineering explained to use the "ideal gas law". This is the best one yet.
Wow. He got me. I was about to start looking for the "ChrisFix" brand canned air, wondering if he started his own product chain. In retrospect, It's obviously a joke. But well done sir!
I absolutely lost it when Jason said he was an engineer with "over 75 years experience" hahaha! We know who to trust when they tell you how many decades of experience they have, that's for sure. Great job, as always! I'll be sure to change out the air in all of my cars right away. Thanks!
"When I was a young Engineer in the '30s you could buy American Summer air and it'd be fine but now it's a joke and complete money pit, just like German air. If you want it to last the Summer, better get the Japanese stuff in!"
Tim Rebernik, He has his own brand of air and he sells at o’riley’s at certain locations around the U.S. my personal brand preference is pep boys summer air. But really the quality is the same.
Some very important information that Chris didn't mention. If you live in a climate that doesn't experience large seasonal temperature swings and you drive a front wheel drive car, the best thing to do is to use Winter Air only on the front axle to increase traction for accelerating, steering and braking. Then you can use Summer Air on the rear axle because they don't need as much grip and can benefit from the performance benefits of Summer Air. Not only that but you won't have to change your air twice a year. But no matter where you live or what you drive, make sure that BOTH tyres (I'm British) are filled with EXACTLY the same air. I'm surprised Chris didn't mention the disastrous consequences of driving with mismatched air.
I always run summer air in my cars. But for my customers I got this really great machine to do an air flush for a full exchange. Takes seconds to flush the air.
I laugh out when Jason speaks for himself about his experience and proves it by his hair color! I knew what it refers to, I just knew it ;) Though today not the April fool when I look back on this video really like how you guys playing the fool in a serious manner!
Holy crap I knew staying up until 3:32 am on a school night was worth it Edit: Didn’t expect Chris to reply I’m a huge fan and trying to learn more about cars and it is now 4:01am I don’t know what I’m doing
I use combination gas. You can use it in winter as well as summer. But it only lasts 2 years unfortunately instead of the summer and winter air you can reuse 5 years if it's good quality
I pulled this on my daughter when she got a flat on her first car. Me and the tire shop guys had a good laugh together. I can't wait until a turn signal bulb goes out and I send her to the parts store for blinker fluid!!!
Nether in my spot... I changed my tire for winter, they torqued it over 200 feet pound !! My girlfriend was stuck on the road with a flat. I ask them if they could torque it, they said that they didn't had a torque wrench... Just watch chrisfix and be far has you can from mechanics !
Thanks Chris, because of the warmer and lighter summer air, There is less wear on my tires and there is less effort needed to turn the wheels, which means that there is less strain on my engine so my piston return springs are gonna last way longer this season.❤🙏
Im back after an year and realized how he did the weight "summer air" is actually nitrogen the stuff they use in f1 and "winter air" is actually regular ol air
Cardboard This is not an April fools video. This is serious. Don’t you know how many drivers suffer from using the WRONG seasonal air in their tires!!!
Saw this in my feed and I was like "What does he mean by that?",5 seconds in and I remembered the blinker fluid video and checked the date.Boom,posted on April 1st
Hehe there is much importance with every install besides air in my tires is very important how else do I know when to change it rather than when my light comes on every 5 seconds I need chrisfix😂
Oh damn, I was scratching my head thinking this is some joke and when you got Jason to explain I thought okay until he said he has 75 years of experience. Good one Chris you almost had me. lol
I acutally watched many of your videos even just to learn something new, and I always listened interested and curious, learning new things and so on... I watched this too, thinking like "I mean, never heard of it, but if he says that, with En.Exp. support, it gotta be true...right?". After a few months, I saw that "Piston return springs" video thinking like "Am I an idiot for never hearing of these?"... Then I looked at the comments... man you fooled not once, but twice. I actually thought that winter/summer air made some sense, SOMEHOW. Piston springs too. Man, you are TOO GOOD at making these videos.
I asked my mechanic. He said sure, yah. Then offered me high performance blinker fluid discounted for $50 a pound. And he has great deals on Beach front property in Colorado!!! He's awesome 😊☺️🤗
@@chrisfix Oh yes, and of course UK air is different to US air, you must of been using air made in the USA? Of course you should never mix different air in opposing tires. UK air in one tire and US in another, it throws off the handling.
Turd Ferguson yeah most likely, i had seen a comment on one of this videos before (forgot what about. Maybe exhaust stuff) and somebody had said “he has that awkward look. He looks like he could pass of as a 16 year old and could very well pass as a 60 year old which is scary”
I watched for way too long, with an expression of disbelief on my face, before I finaly decided to look for the date when video was uploaded. Ahh good one 🤣
My fav is the piston return spring. I watched that video immediately after waking up last year and felt soo confused. I started questioning my whole existence
Not joking, you should should check your tire pressures when the seasons change. It can fluctuate a bit due to temperature change. Engineering explained wasn't 100% joking when he mentioned the ideal gas law haha.
I heard Summer Air is coming out in a Pro Series ... helium ... a far superior summer air. With even lighter tires your car will be faster and zippier with increased fuel efficiency and improved miles per gallon. Another well done video as always ChrisFix ;-)
I actually had a customer come in and ask me to take his winter air out of his tires and swap them with summer air.... Thank you for this laugh
😂😂😂😂😂
Did you charge them?😂
I was dumbfounded! Lol I couldn't tell if he was serious or not until I saw this video and had to show the guys in my shop! Lol he was dead serious about the air switch in his tires and even asked after everything was done if the air was still ok to use for the summer. 🤦♀️

Some very important information that Chris didn't mention.
If you live in a climate that doesn't experience large seasonal temperature swings and you drive a front wheel drive car, the best thing to do is to use Winter Air only on the front axle to increase traction for accelerating, steering and braking. Then you can use Summer Air on the rear axle because they don't need as much grip and can benefit from the performance benefits of Summer Air. Not only that but you won't have to change your air twice a year.

The perfect collaboration doesn’t exi-
I always run summer air in my cars. But for my customers I got this really great machine to do an air flush for a full exchange. Takes seconds to flush the air.

Edit: Didn’t expect Chris to reply I’m a huge fan and trying to learn more about cars and it is now 4:01am I don’t know what I’m doing
Awesome! Pulling an all nighter was worth it then!
Hope you don’t fall asleep in class😅😅😅
Jokes on you I use Natural Gas, it's good for the environment cause it's natural.
Haha! Underrated comment!
But we should be using nitrogen in the tires so they don't leak, right?
😂😂😂
I don't think that goes there...
I use combination gas. You can use it in winter as well as summer. But it only lasts 2 years unfortunately instead of the summer and winter air you can reuse 5 years if it's good quality
I appreciate Chris for remembering us who live in the Southeast Asian tropics where we never go below 20 C.
Gotta keep everyone in mind ;)
Hello fellow filipino
@@kimisdrink2726 actually, I'm Malaysian, my friend
I pulled this on my daughter when she got a flat on her first car. Me and the tire shop guys had a good laugh together. I can't wait until a turn signal bulb goes out and I send her to the parts store for blinker fluid!!!
Mechanics aren't really good where I live. I've asked them to swap my exhaust bearings and fill my tires with summer air and he called me crazy.
jtdc86 have you tried using elbow grease and replacing your blinker fluid?
Exhaust bearings are pretty straightforward and can be done with basic tools.
Nether in my spot... I changed my tire for winter, they torqued it over 200 feet pound !! My girlfriend was stuck on the road with a flat. I ask them if they could torque it, they said that they didn't had a torque wrench... Just watch chrisfix and be far has you can from mechanics !
Don't forget to check your piston return springs.
🤔 I wonder why they couldn't! Try blinker fluid and a bushing instead of a bearing maybe
I prefer the dark and moody autumn air, but it is really expensive and only specialized stores sell it
If you're ever in California, they sell Artisanal air at a lot of their specialty electric vehicle parts stores.
Thanks Chris, because of the warmer and lighter summer air, There is less wear on my tires and there is less effort needed to turn the wheels, which means that there is less strain on my engine so my piston return springs are gonna last way longer this season.❤🙏
This past winter I added winter air AND I screwed in over a hundred screws into each tire. Huge difference in snow traction! Thanks Chrisfix!
ChrisFix the kind of guy to wax his compressor.
Don't forget the soapy wooder
wrong channel. Go back to Doug Demuro
@@derpdudedatboi7455
Doug the type of guy to tell people to keep the joke inside
@@LermaBean lollll
Also the kind of guy to not upload for a while but then make a video for april fools.
I literally emptied four wheels...and added some Spring air. My car's weight came down around 50 kegs..felt like flying a chopper
Lol
Try Hydrogen.
@@sudmaticmotors4251 Hydrogen ≠ Nitrogen.
If there is a competition in which people win by putting the most effort into April fools jokes you would be a world-class champion.
Im back after an year and realized how he did the weight "summer air" is actually nitrogen the stuff they use in f1 and "winter air" is actually regular ol air
;)
I sick of all those April fools videos. Finally something useful to watch!!!
Cardboard I
This is an April fools video
Zachray John Ninan Its sarcasm, if you didnt get it.
Hahahahahahahah
Cardboard
This is not an April fools video. This is serious. Don’t you know how many drivers suffer from using the WRONG seasonal air in their tires!!!
I didn't expect the Engineering Explained cameo. Nice touch!
same lmao
I watched this the 12th of march and got pretty confused.. till i finally read the description and saw april 1st as upload date. 😂
Saw this in my feed and I was like "What does he mean by that?",5 seconds in and I remembered the blinker fluid video and checked the date.Boom,posted on April 1st
Thanks! Now I know the importance of checking the date when watching a video on UA-cam.
Yayy! Im not the only one :D
Hehe there is much importance with every install besides air in my tires is very important how else do I know when to change it rather than when my light comes on every 5 seconds I need chrisfix😂
Damn girl, get you a ChrisFix. If he can do that much for april fools, imagine your birthday or anniversary
Oh damn, I was scratching my head thinking this is some joke and when you got Jason to explain I thought okay until he said he has 75 years of experience. Good one Chris you almost had me. lol
🤣 I actually watched the entire video. You had me fooled. Well done on another great video!
:p Thanks a lot!
Don't forget your blinker fluid as well, vv important
Hi I'm VV.
@@advvaibhavvashisht9399 LMAOOOOO outstanding move
@@derpdudedatboi7455 lol.
And the muffler bearings
I love that you roped in Engineering Explained :D Nicely done!
kmikl check out his April fools videos. So funny
I acutally watched many of your videos even just to learn something new, and I always listened interested and curious, learning new things and so on... I watched this too, thinking like "I mean, never heard of it, but if he says that, with En.Exp. support, it gotta be true...right?". After a few months, I saw that "Piston return springs" video thinking like "Am I an idiot for never hearing of these?"... Then I looked at the comments... man you fooled not once, but twice. I actually thought that winter/summer air made some sense, SOMEHOW. Piston springs too. Man, you are TOO GOOD at making these videos.
lol thanks a lot!
I asked my mechanic. He said sure, yah. Then offered me high performance blinker fluid discounted for $50 a pound. And he has great deals on Beach front property in Colorado!!! He's awesome 😊☺️🤗
Joshua Williams Lmao
Here in the UK, we have to use Autumn Air because of all the rain. This is not to be confused with night time and day time air of course.
Thanks for sharing! It is cool to see the different air people fill their tires with around the world!
@@chrisfix Oh yes, and of course UK air is different to US air, you must of been using air made in the USA? Of course you should never mix different air in opposing tires. UK air in one tire and US in another, it throws off the handling.
"I have over 75 years of experience, just look at my hair!" 😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂🤣🤣😁😁
🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂😁
Hahahaha 75 years and he still looks great no sagging skin no none of that just crinkles on his skin nothing he is doing good for so old😂
How old is he actually ?
Turd Ferguson yeah most likely, i had seen a comment on one of this videos before (forgot what about. Maybe exhaust stuff) and somebody had said “he has that awkward look. He looks like he could pass of as a 16 year old and could very well pass as a 60 year old which is scary”
Imaging having tires
This post was made by the tank track gang
I watched for way too long, with an expression of disbelief on my face, before I finaly decided to look for the date when video was uploaded. Ahh good one 🤣
We watched this in my auto class and a lot thought it was real, the time and effort put into this was amazing. Great as always
My fav is the piston return spring. I watched that video immediately after waking up last year and felt soo confused. I started questioning my whole existence
This is the best April fools video!!! The engineer explanation hooked us all. Well played Chris.
I was a little confused at first because the upload only says 3 years ago not a date, then I watched and had a functional brain. Good laugh
I'm still trying to get my mechanic to change my blinker fluid
Me too.
me too.i'm from Sri Lanka and i had show my friend mechanic, so he believed that true.
me too, but they said my blinker doesnt have any fluid, and I am confused 🧐
@@78kurenai well your blinker has no fluid because you need to add some.
Only water cooled blinkers require fluid.
I know its April fools..... but ... after this video I might just replace my winter air with summer air JUST to be safe.
Not joking, you should should check your tire pressures when the seasons change. It can fluctuate a bit due to temperature change. Engineering explained wasn't 100% joking when he mentioned the ideal gas law haha.
Doesnt hurt to check your air pressure and make sure the air is good. Be sure to check the spare too!
I recommend you to use Racing air. It adds an extra 35 HP to your car
@@SPER1 I should capture some summer air with ziploc bags and sell them to the people up north. We have plenty of summer air down here.
I heard Summer Air is coming out in a Pro Series ... helium ... a far superior summer air. With even lighter tires your car will be faster and zippier with increased fuel efficiency and improved miles per gallon. Another well done video as always ChrisFix ;-)
I'll have to look into it!
And sulfur hexafluoride or perfluorobutane in winter.
Can't believe I got nearly 3 minutes in before thinking to check the date.
Brilliant!
I bet blinker fluid is more important 😂
You forgot the piston return spring
I have a video on that too just in case but the air in your tires is pretty important: ua-cam.com/video/E6GsXhBb10k/v-deo.html
Instruction unclear, filled my tyres whit helium, car took off & it's floating near mars. 0/10 would not buy again.
I’d be happy if I had a flying car!!
I wish to invest in your helium based spaceflight venture.
*Elon Musk enters the chat*
Did I hear something about a car in space?
No one else like this comment it's at 69 likes
Helium or Hydrogen in a car's tires will cause a difference in apparent weight of less than 1%. Definitely not enough to reach escape velocity.
Damm you Chris,
There's so much conviction in your voice I didn't realize this was an April fool's joke!
