@rabidrabbitshuggers Imagine just randomly scrolling on UA-cam or Facebook, and you come across a video of an Australian mechanic saying, "Dumbest things ive seen as a mechanic. So a bloke brought me his car, he said he was driving when it started to smell funny and died. I checked his radiator to see if if maybe he had overheated it, and this is what I found." *Cracks radiator drain plug.* "That's soda." It would be full circle.
"I done put Pepsi in my radiator cuz it was like, really hot ya know? I took it to the ol' jiffy lube and they, they told me that I shouldn't be using Pepsi, but like, it's me favorite drink. I just thought that me car would also want some Pepsi as a little treat"
I work with industrial steam generators so here's a funfact: having a liquid containing CO2 or O2 in a steel container is really bad in terms of corrosion. Cuz essentially for corrosion to happen you need 2 things: an electrically conductive liquid and oxygen. Water checks boths of these boxes. Even plain old tap water already has so many impurities and so "high" concentrations of CO2 and O2 dissolved in it that using it in a steam generator would ruin the thing pretty damn fast. In the industry we have dedicated systems to remove all the impurities and even de-gas all the CO2 and O2 (and even that's barely enough, so chemicals are added to bind what makes it past). Now Pepsi is essentially a nuclear bomb of impurities. It has LOADS of stuff that will make it more electrically conductive and it is saturated with CO2. So yeah, corrosion will prolly happen big time. But here's another interesting fact: While liquids contaminated with O2 will leave behind rough pocket corrosion (deep holes, grooves and generally rough surfaces), CO2 actually causes fairly even surface corrosion. So every place of a container that comes into contact with boiling Pepsi will slowly and evenly thin out until it's corroded into a thin sheet. Looking forward to how this turns out for the nugget!
On Nugget Gear today: Wade tries Pepsi as a coolant, James runs a Daihatsu on jet fuel, and AussieStig sets a new land and water record combo on 90 Mile Beach in NZ.

@@Wario-The-Legend Nah, Australia has ants for sure. If anything, being hunted by other Australian fauna has just made the ants more extreme. Australian bull ant species are very aggressive, and have a stinger able to deliver some of the most toxic venom of all insects in the world. It can trigger lethal anaphylactic shock, especially when the victim is allergic, which is relatively common. Longer-term effects can include kidney failure. There have been multiple documented fatalities due to bull ant stings, many dying in a matter of minutes.

Same applied to all CamPro family engine. -The Water Pump Pipe/Coolant By Pass Pipe in this car is notoriously hard to install. -The Original thermostat in this car sucks. -It has a good Air-conditioning system. -Both the Manual and the Automatic transmission available are pretty robust.
Sage is the kind of guy you'd tell that the boss has a car emergency and needs them to run to all the local autopart stores, to pickup a new water pump for his '63 VW Beetle 😅 (not making fun of YOU, Sage, as I appreciate that I don't know _plenty of things_ that you do, and that would make me a hypocrite if I did 🍻)
So... An auntie of mine did this when we were going on holiday. Ran out of coolant due to cracked rad. She chucked this in. Needless to say, the car travelled much further on the back of a recovery truck than it did on the pepsi.
I'm surprised that Wade had mentioned watching Technology Connections and the rice cooker video in particular, but he didn't remember here about the latent heat of vaporization mentioned there. Once the Pepsi hits its boiling point, it'll stay at that temperature until the boiling's finished, and only then can you start making caramel with the leftover solids.
Tony actually has a water-cooled brother, the 126 BIS, which is also a hatchback. It still has an engine in the back, it was flipped on its side and had a radiator stuffed between the rear left wheel and the engine block.

10:56 something to note is that carbonization is co2 gas dissolved into the water and unlike solid solutes which dissolve more readily with warmer temperatures, gasses dissolve more readily in colder temperatures, this is why salmon prefer colder waters, where there is more dissolved oxygen. the bulk of the carbonation is gonna be gone by the time the water gets near boiling
I'd _completely forgotten_ about that (high school chemistry was 10 years ago as I'm writing this) but it would explain why there wasn't as much burping from the radiator as I expected
@@sadmac356 I suspect a lot of the carbonation escaped int he filling process TBH. what you pour a carbonated liquid into/on has a big impact on how much it burps on impact. It's the same principle from that Mentos in Pepsi thing. A radiator inside? probably gonna burps a lot more than a drinking glass.
Years ago I split a coolant bypass hose on my Integra and had to top it up just to get it home. We were out in some exurb and had nothing but a cup and a drainage ditch. So I topped the radiator up with drainage water, making sure to keep the big chunks out of it. Out of pure laziness that drainage ditch water circulated in my cooling system for...a few years I think. When I drained it there was no corrosion or drama. So cooling systems will put up with more than you might think (but you shouldn't test that)
Yeah, unless it messes with the coolant pump or gaskets it'll most likely take a long time, literally years, to show an effect unless you take it apart, but then again Pepsi is acidic too, and the aluminium in the radiator isn't too thick..
Considering fairy floss (cotton candy to us Yanks) is literally just table sugar (maybe with dye and a touch of flavor) that is heated to melting and then flung out of a small orifice into the "cold" (relatively) air around it where it instantly re-crystallizes I'm not shocked at all about that engine bay smell. I actually have a small cotton candy machine. What's really fun is to take small hard candies like Jolly Ranchers, crush them slightly, and feed them through.
10:57 That is precisely what is happening! Solubility of gases in liquids is inversely proportional to the temperature and inverse to that of solids. That is to say the hotter a liquid gets the less diffused gasses it can hold.
Exactly the same reason warm cola goes flat faster than cold, cold colas are less likey to fizz out of the bottle, and the one to the supposed benefits of the sub-zero beer stuff.
Water absorbs more gas at lower temperatures. As the soda heats up, it loses its ability to hold on to the carbonation. This off gassing is probably going through the coolant overflow.
This reminds me of when my dad left a full can of Pepsi in his new Pontiac Sunbird and the heat caused it to explode. That cabin was horribly sticky for what felt like 10 years.
With all the gas and acid in there, it's actually cleaning out some of the gunk that's on the inside that comes into contact with the Pepsi before flushing it out!
One day he's going to wake up and realize ... he really should buy a used tow truck. Then again they would probably look into how many nuggets could be towed at one time.
boiling pepsi / coke is something my hongkongnese grandma would do, and put sliced ginger and lemon into it. it’s actually really nice to drink on a cold day when you craving the sweetness of a cola
I didn't realize people from Hong Kong were referred to as hongkongnese. I would have thought it would be something like Hong Konger, kind of like how ppl from Beijing are called Beojinger
Here’s a fun fact for you: at one point, Dr Pepper tried to market the idea of “hot Dr Pepper” heated in a pan or kettle to dry to encourage consumption in the wintertime and thus further compete with tea (which some Southerners drink iced in summer and hot in winter) It did not succeed
You know, pepsi and coke have phosphoric acid in EU, so they act as great rust inhibitors. They convert iron to stable iron oxide form, which doesn't flake off and protects the metal underneath. I'm pretty sure that for at least a few months pepsi won't corrode iron elements, idk about aluminium though. For the sugar content, I also think it could concentrate on the cylinder walls, but considering that sugar becomes more soluble in water with higher temps, then the easiest spot for it to settle would be in the radiator and the return hoses.
@yozul1 we only started making aluminium cans in 1957 and immediately started with the coating. We used to coat the steel/iron cans with tin so they wouldn't corrode.
I've paused at 1:08, you're (likely) putting full sugar Pepsi into the coolant/radiator, sugar caramelises with heat, the engine block is a hot thing... the coolant runners are going to get caramelised! Will respond to this comment with how my prediction plays out!
@@strattino but then a necromancer rubbed Vegemite on me and brought me back! Now I smell of Vegemite and: as Wade and James said, it's an ongoing experiment, so at the moment we don't know what the date of the Goober will be! But I still think caramelised engine block
My family ages ago went on a trip and my dads van blew a radiator hose and dumped all the water, all we had was soda so thats what we used, engine is still running strong all these years later.
Reminds me of one of my fav school chemistry labs, calculating the concentration of phosphoric acid in coke. (Yes coke uses phosphoric acid to make it sour. IDK about pepsi, you could check the lable I guess!) Had to be boiled before titrating it with base, to remove the acidity contribution from the carbonation/carbonic acid. Such a fun intro to the use of titration :D
To answer your question, yes, the warmer a liquid is, the less carbonation the liquid can hold. You can test this another way by just lightly cracking the top of a can of soda when it's cold vs when it's warm. The cold can will have a shorter hiss than the warm can, so basically you'll boil off all the carbonation and just be left with the syrup afterwards.
Boiling a carbonated beverage does indeed remove the carbonation. It allows the reaction that produces the bubbles to happen at _much_ faster rate, using up the entire supply.
If something happens, i bet the sugar will stuck the thermostat either in open or close position and the end result is corrosion and a blown head gasket
Hello there, i just want to remind you to bleed the coolant system. From the lower radiator hose, you gonna find 8mm bolt and unscrew until there is no bubble coming out. Screw back the 8mm bolt and refill the coolant, if you not perform the bleeding. Engine will be overheated. Sorry for my bad english but hello from Malaysia 🎉

Years ago I split a coolant bypass hose on my Integra and had to top it up just to get it home. We were out in some exurb and had nothing but a cup and a drainage ditch. So I topped the radiator up with drainage water, making sure to keep the big chunks out of it. Out of pure laziness that drainage ditch water circulated in my cooling system for...a few years I think. When I drained it there was no corrosion or drama. So cooling systems will put up with more than you might think (but you shouldn't test that)
Yeah, unless it messes with the coolant pump or gaskets it'll most likely take a long time, literally years, to show an effect unless you take it apart, but then again Pepsi is acidic too, and the aluminium in the radiator isn't too thick..
Fucking mint dude. Those b18s dgaf, they just brap!
"- It's fizzing..."
"- It's Pepsi! "
Hahah, I lost it here
I already smell burned sugar in your coolant pipes
Looking back, I can't believe the Pepsi was the least of the Goober's concerns.
The only reason Tony was spared this atrocity is because he is air cooled.
Considering fairy floss (cotton candy to us Yanks) is literally just table sugar (maybe with dye and a touch of flavor) that is heated to melting and then flung out of a small orifice into the "cold" (relatively) air around it where it instantly re-crystallizes I'm not shocked at all about that engine bay smell.
I actually have a small cotton candy machine. What's really fun is to take small hard candies like Jolly Ranchers, crush them slightly, and feed them through.
10:57 That is precisely what is happening!
Solubility of gases in liquids is inversely proportional to the temperature and inverse to that of solids. That is to say the hotter a liquid gets the less diffused gasses it can hold.
Exactly the same reason warm cola goes flat faster than cold, cold colas are less likey to fizz out of the bottle, and the one to the supposed benefits of the sub-zero beer stuff.
Water absorbs more gas at lower temperatures. As the soda heats up, it loses its ability to hold on to the carbonation. This off gassing is probably going through the coolant overflow.
A proper sugar jet lmfqo
"All I wanted was just one Pepsi! And she wouldn't give it to me, just one Pepsi!"
"Brother, I made a pot of Pepsi"
"You don't make a pot of Pepsi"
"...Well I did"
I’m surprised they didn’t use Mountain Dew to keep the coolant color the same.
They had already bought pepsi haha 😆
Pepsi still funny AF to replace your coolant with. Mountain dew would be more appropriate in a truck anyway... Doin it country cool
Mountain Dew?!?!?!!?
*knocks bottle of MD off table*
FUCK MOUNTAIN DEW!!!!!!
This reminds me of when my dad left a full can of Pepsi in his new Pontiac Sunbird and the heat caused it to explode. That cabin was horribly sticky for what felt like 10 years.
what is it with pepsi and both heat and cold causing the cans to explode lol
10:14 Dr Pepper at one point advertised heating Dr Pepper up on a stovetop or in a kettle to drink it hot on a winter day
Ive tried it, it aint bad
Drain the goober, do it again, fill 'er with Dr Pepper
It can't taste much worse than Dr Pepper
Look up Hot Dr. Pepper by Matrix Slide
@@boredincan my thoughts exactly
hot dr. pepper mentioned
TIL that Fairy Floss is not in fact a hard drug. It's cotton candy.
Hot Pepsi isn't even that weird of a concept. Hot Dr. Pepper was an actual beverage in the 60s.
12:41 "HÜÜEEAAAH" Throwing myself off the chair here lmao
"No one else knows my car is being cooled by pepsi"
I can't get enough of Wade's "FULLY SICC M8" voice
I swear all Aussies have this ability, and they all sound EXACTLY the same when they do it lol
Just imagine they found that Pepsi is like some miracle coolant that science has overlooked and this hatchback has started the cola coolant wars
the health star rating thing is rlly cool, i wish more countries adopted that 0:40
I second that.
James's laugh when wade made the "pshhh" noise after opening the radiator cap lol
With all the gas and acid in there, it's actually cleaning out some of the gunk that's on the inside that comes into contact with the Pepsi before flushing it out!
One day he's going to wake up and realize ... he really should buy a used tow truck. Then again they would probably look into how many nuggets could be towed at one time.
Tow truck towing a tow truck towing a tow truck....
I didn’t know DankPods made car videos! This is so cool!
I knew his voice sounded familiar!
Y’all have seen Pepsi man.
But have y’all seen Pepsi CAR?
The Pepsimobile
PEPSICAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAR
PEPSI-PEPSI-
PEPSI-PEPSI-
PEPSICAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAR
yeah, that still works
How did you know I knew the Man of Pepsi
The car is thirsty. We must hydrate car. Drive on road.
boiling pepsi / coke is something my hongkongnese grandma would do, and put sliced ginger and lemon into it. it’s actually really nice to drink on a cold day when you craving the sweetness of a cola
That sounds a lot like hot Dr. Pepper!
I didn't realize people from Hong Kong were referred to as hongkongnese. I would have thought it would be something like Hong Konger, kind of like how ppl from Beijing are called Beojinger
Here’s a fun fact for you: at one point, Dr Pepper tried to market the idea of “hot Dr Pepper” heated in a pan or kettle to dry to encourage consumption in the wintertime and thus further compete with tea (which some Southerners drink iced in summer and hot in winter)
It did not succeed
no wonder it works, it was already filled with gatorade
Those people driving around don't know your car is filled with Pepsi, and i think that's really funny
You know, pepsi and coke have phosphoric acid in EU, so they act as great rust inhibitors. They convert iron to stable iron oxide form, which doesn't flake off and protects the metal underneath. I'm pretty sure that for at least a few months pepsi won't corrode iron elements, idk about aluminium though. For the sugar content, I also think it could concentrate on the cylinder walls, but considering that sugar becomes more soluble in water with higher temps, then the easiest spot for it to settle would be in the radiator and the return hoses.
@@yozul1 cans are coated inside with a polymer, so that aluminium won't leech into the drink
@yozul1 we only started making aluminium cans in 1957 and immediately started with the coating. We used to coat the steel/iron cans with tin so they wouldn't corrode.
I've paused at 1:08, you're (likely) putting full sugar Pepsi into the coolant/radiator, sugar caramelises with heat, the engine block is a hot thing... the coolant runners are going to get caramelised! Will respond to this comment with how my prediction plays out!
He died before he finished the video 😔
@@strattino but then a necromancer rubbed Vegemite on me and brought me back! Now I smell of Vegemite and: as Wade and James said, it's an ongoing experiment, so at the moment we don't know what the date of the Goober will be! But I still think caramelised engine block
@@petro1986 He's gotta take it to a mechanic when it eventually dies and just not tell them he filled it with Pepsi.
My family ages ago went on a trip and my dads van blew a radiator hose and dumped all the water, all we had was soda so thats what we used, engine is still running strong all these years later.
Reminds me of one of my fav school chemistry labs, calculating the concentration of phosphoric acid in coke. (Yes coke uses phosphoric acid to make it sour. IDK about pepsi, you could check the lable I guess!) Had to be boiled before titrating it with base, to remove the acidity contribution from the carbonation/carbonic acid. Such a fun intro to the use of titration :D
To answer your question, yes, the warmer a liquid is, the less carbonation the liquid can hold. You can test this another way by just lightly cracking the top of a can of soda when it's cold vs when it's warm. The cold can will have a shorter hiss than the warm can, so basically you'll boil off all the carbonation and just be left with the syrup afterwards.
Pepsi ocean button: 4:13 Slow motion Pepsi ocean button: 4:18
How could this possibly go wrong
My thought is, how could it possibly go right😂.
Okay Bubsy
I mean, hot pepsi isn't too weird considering they used to advertise Dr.Pepper as being a warm or cold drink. Weird now, but maybe not before?
12:24 Fool a coffee drinker with this simple trick ;P
he’s like that kid from toy story, but with money and no one to stop him
“It’s not done till I say it’s done.” Ha ha I love villainous James 😂!
Next day:
"Hey Wade, what happened to our Kettle?"
"I cooked Pepsi in it!"
"Why?"
"TO PAY FOR THE NEW ONE OF COURSE, duhh!"
I'm just drinking Pepsi while the goober has Pepsi as coolant.
Wade: *pssht*
James: *laughing from the heavens*
This has cheered me up. My car decided it's coolant was better on the outside than the inside today.
Boiling a carbonated beverage does indeed remove the carbonation. It allows the reaction that produces the bubbles to happen at _much_ faster rate, using up the entire supply.
Great, now I'm thirsty for antifreeze.
do not drink the coolant
it tastes like mountain dew without the bitterant
lime, raspberry or orange?
yim yum
Tony is finally thankful to be air cooled.
7:38 the colour shift on the cap though
it because the camera switching lens from ultrawide to main camera
People: *cooling pepsi*
DankPods: *boiling pepsi to make tea party*
Plain hot water is literally just "the weakest" of teas.
You've had Pepsi for TV Game and Pepsi for Pizza now get ready for Pepsi for coolant
Pepsiman!
@@hypertech116 Pepsi, only my choice
If something happens, i bet the sugar will stuck the thermostat either in open or close position and the end result is corrosion and a blown head gasket
Hello there, i just want to remind you to bleed the coolant system. From the lower radiator hose, you gonna find 8mm bolt and unscrew until there is no bubble coming out. Screw back the 8mm bolt and refill the coolant, if you not perform the bleeding. Engine will be overheated. Sorry for my bad english but hello from Malaysia 🎉
It's truly poetic how the pepsi ocean in slow motion was framed by the same music that played with the loving montage of the donkey van's death
