    Great video. Scotty always has good stuff, and fun to watch too!
    He did forget to mention one of the oldest test in the book. The pop bottle test. Works good if you don’t have a fuel pressure gauge or access to the Schrader valve.
    Disconnect power to coils/spark plugs. Disconnect fuel line, use a piece of hose to direct it into a pop bottle. Crank it over for a few seconds. Should get about 4-8 oz of fuel. Works best on older mechanical style fuel pumps, but can give you an idea on electronic fuel pumps.

Blows cold AC when I need it and heat when I need it. I repainted it, and tinted the windows and looks brand new. Inside is in excellent condition, has power everything including a manufacture sunroof!! I Do most of the maintenance myself and the complex stuff I take to a trusted mechanic. I’ve had it for the past 12 years and plan on keeping it another 12.

      I still consider buying early 80s cars. Firstly they're reliable, secondly they're pretty easy to find, a lot of people who bought them brand new and kept maintaining them are getting too old to drive so they decide to sell them. That's how I ended up with a Yugo....yes, a Yugo, and I had no problems with it for 4 years. Did I mention it's a Yugo?

    Many times a defective in-tank fuel pump can be replaced without removing it, by adding an external fuel pump. They are cheap and easy to install. If it can suck fuel through the dead pump, it will work.

    You are my goto guy, I had hard starting with 3.4l chevy and by your vids I came up with replacing the MAP sensor for $85 because simptoms matched the best. But still had to hold pedal down an inch to get started hot or cold with rich gas fumes/smoke when it finally started out the exaust pipe. So botom line it wasnt the problem, however evey othe car guy had a vid on the Fuel Pressure Regulator that matched my problem exact as when you removed the vacuum line to the Fuel Pressure Regulator gas would sputter out where the vacuume line was, mine sputterd the gas too, problem solved for the additional cost of $52 for the new Fuel Pressure Regulator. Please do a vid on this problem. Thank you for your videos, keep up the good work.

    0:49 One correction Scotty, a fuse CAN be blown even if the metal looks continuous. The best practice is to always check them with multimeter.

      As painful as it sounds a full tank is safer than an empty-ish tank because it has less fuel vapor (the stuff that goes boom). I also use brass tools when removing the pump to avoid sparks.

      The Volkswagen Touareg v10 Diesel is even worse. In order to replace the alternator you have to fully drop the front subframe. Yep, the motor,transmission, and subframe have to be removed to replace it.
      That touareg is not a car you want to own outside of warranty

      +PuppetMaster Lol you have it made my man!
      For one, your water pump was due for replacement anyway (at 90k miles actually). And if it was previously replaced, I'd be willing to bet it wasn't replaced with an OEM pump. Second, it sounds like either you need to grease your hood a little bit. Did you have an accident? Many times an accident will warp the metal around the hood and trunk, making it difficult to open or close (even tiny fender benders). All the Celica owners I've known don't have issues with their trunk (including my mom and aunt back in the 90s).
      I've had to work on many of my family member's cars, and no surprise Toyota is definetely superior in the eyes of many based on first hand experience. And don't assume that the number of recalls is a clear indication of bad quality. American car brands don't issue recalls for many of their vehicles because they have to pay to fix it. Taking responsibility is better than laughing all the way to the bank as your customer is having their fairly brand new car in the shop getting fixed at their own expense.
