Thanks for watching! I always use this spray and rinse method on all my cars engine bays. With the right degreaser and even an entry lever pressure washer, barely any scrubbing is required.

Is the super clean safe for rubbers and plastics?
Recently purchased a one owner 2003 Tahoe with 277k miles, I was just as surprised as you, not one jitter, runs so smooth, everything works. The previous owner took immaculate care of it. It runs just as smooth as my fathers 2022 Tahoe. I paid $3000
I jusy bought my wife the exact same z71 tahoe u have even same color, 2004 model. We got lucky and have a super clean 190k tahoe. So im learning a ton about it from ur videos bro. Thanks a ton man!
Jeez 190k is pretty up there on the miles man ,
@@EduardoFlores-qy1wq
It's barely broken in compared to my 03 Yukon with 344k on it.
@@EduardoFlores-qy1wq nah man they last a lot longer 😂
@@EduardoFlores-qy1wq lol my 2002 Tahoe has 768000 his is a bady with 190000 mine is a young adult
Stumbled on your videos . New to me 2003 White Z71 sitting in my driveway 140 K and solid. Prev owner did a Flowmaster cat back dual exhaust, Sounds great. KYB shocks. He is a pro repair shop owner and took good care. Ran synthetic oil etc. Paint very good over all . usual little dings. Plan on same lights you did , but I am doing a black grill with vertical bars and no emblems. May do black wheels , and black lower front bumper as well. Daily driver is a BMW 5 series. This is a second car. Replaces a 96 Tahoe I have for 14 years Appreciate your videos
Nice man love seeing your videos my dad passed away about 3yrs ago and left his 2001 tahoe behind I'm going to follow your videos to bring his truck back to life!
Always liked these older tahoes, and the transformation on this one is dope
I see Tahoe content, I hit like.
All I replaced in 8 years is a thermostat shocks struts,have same brakes also ,good trucks 94500 miles
Wow nice 👍
Just bought a 98 Chevy with 0 issues, little to no rust, 182k miles (for a 98 not bad), since I got it within a month this is what I already did:
- All new fluids
- new driver train
- new both from axles
- new all around breaks
@@kaylaphillips511 enjoy 😉
@@kaylaphillips511 it has 182k...what did you expect? Yea, they may last longer but that depends on how well the previous owner/owners took care of it. My 01’ has 120k but had 62 service records all from the Chevy dealership it was purchased from. Also a one owner. A little research and digging goes a long way to better your chances of having a good vehicle.
Very little more gratifying than cleaning the engine of a new (used) buy. I installed a hot water spigot on the outside of my home and it is GREAT! Love the Tahoe, my wife has a 04 and it has been virtually trouble free so far at about 120K.
You know it! Ive done this with so many of my cars, then if I ever end up selling them I usually lose money with all the work I put into “restoring” them😂. I love this truck though, so far it does everything I need👍. She’ll be sticking around.
Thanks Matt, simple with great advice and straightforward, looks great bud!
That’s how my Silverado 1500 WT was when I bought it. I bought it back in Feb 2013 and it was a fleet truck. It had 186,000 n some change. Now it’s got 218,000. What..32,000 in 6 years? She still rides amazingly! #ChevyGang lol
I got my 2009 Silverado when it had 170,000 in 4 years i put 120,000 miles on it now it has 289,850 miles
TheWolverine0657 I bet it still rides good as hell too!!
@@504CreoleCrystal yep
We’ve changed air filters on both of our vehicles to k&n that’s one of the first things we do also.. love how that engine looks..
It’s a good idea to pack connectors with silicone grease and coat rubber boots as well when access allows. Silicone spray lubricant is a good protector for aluminum, plastic, and rubber parts. Dirt won’t stick. Just rinse them clean them in the future.
An amazing dressing is Chemical Guys VRP. Stands for Vinyl, Rubber, Plastic. I'm pretty sure it's water based, no silicone or anything. It's body shop safe for those in the know. It's actually more than just a dressing. It completely rehydrates any plastic or rubber surface without leaving the greasy residue for dirt to cling to. I detail under the hood of my Cadillac CTS every other month with VRP and it stays looking amazing. Lasts weeks on tires, even makes water bead off the sidewalls . Steady application for a month or so will almost completely restore any plastic surface. Rubber is easy, soaks it right up. I swear by the stuff! Perfect for this job. You can mix it with a little water and spray it to hit hard spots and just leave it sit. Make sure you keep it shaken up for spraying.
Be careful spraying towards the valley. There's a pair of knock sensors that have a bad habit of trapping water and causing problems. They even had a TSB about building a RTV dam to keep water out of them.
The ceramic coating I used on my 2 cars came here t.co/SbDQmgpWcf
I was about to say this but I was a month late.
I just finished replacing knock sensors and intake manifold on a 5.3 vortec fun fun fun lol
@@NOTOROB yeah mine were all rusty crusty when I got them out
Had to do that on all three of my ls motors....built the dam with rtv as per the tsb... always replace the harness with the sensors
2004 Tahoe Z71 was awesome. Transmission began to give out at 235,000 miles so I let her go. She was reliable and awesome. Cold AC all the time. Only issue it had before the tranny began to have issues is the electronic shifter on the t-case.
Super Clean in the aersol can is the BEST engine cleaner/detailer I've EVER used!! Great product 👌
This is so satisfying to watch. And bonus eye candy! Lol! 🤣😝
I need to do this to my 2009 Silverado it has 289,850 miles of filth on it
That's a lot of miles
Thewolverine0657.....post a video bro
learning a ton watching your channel just simple little tips and tricks, its awesome!
The OCD side of me loves these before and after pics.
New lease of life for the truck good stuff 👍😎👌
im loving these new chrisfix videos
LIFE of Pleasure Chris fix isn’t even a mechanic though. Why watch him? Scotty Kilmer is the real Goat
@@americanpatriot8426 neither one teaches you anything you wouldnt be able to figure out yourself. So if I'm watching solely out if entertainment or comparison. I'd rather watch someone who isnt obnoxious and opinionated.
J Fulkerson disgusting that you like Scotty 🤢
I have an 2003 Yukon XL. This video is excellent. I’m going to do this. On a side note. Nice beat. 👍🏾
I own a 2004 1500 suburban and tou are teaching me a lot
The oiled type air filters tend to coat the MAF sensor and eventually will throw off the computer. May want to consider swapping to a dry one, or just keep an eye on the MAF and keep it clean.
I use a AEM dry filter on my suburban, works pretty well.
K&N has a dry filter line now called the Blackhawk Series. I switched over as soon as it came out
That happen to my Ford. Never used a oiled K&N again.
@@awesomeasfuck100 I had used K&N (oiled) on my Durango and Dakota up until they point they died electrically. I did see oil residue buildup on the MAF and a general oil slick through the air tube. I now use AEM dry filters (same as K&N but dry as you know) on my Z71 Tahoe 5.3 and the wife's LTZ TrailBlazer 4.2. I don't have to clean sensors as often now.
Looks great, Always nice to see the vehicle getting some love. 👍
That interior looks clean!!!!
Its also nice for working on without getting completely dirty.
Great video love all your videos I also have 04 Tahoe. For a nice shine and no damage to your plastic you can spray on some WD40. The shine also last a long time.
Any future vids on cleaning rust underneath the Tahoe?
Can someone tell me if you can just crank it up and dry it off by driving it for a few minutes?
Don't do that your gonna get water in the spark plugs
just a heads up as a fellow new yorker and tahoe owner. the windshield washer tank might actually be a blown pump on my 05 had that issue bought a new tank and same issue had to pull the pumps off till i found a hairline fracture up the pump.
Thats exactly what it is. I checked it the other day after filling it up and the pump was spraying from a split at the base. I have two new pumps I need to put in👍
@@lsxmatt it's fairly easy you can just pull one tab off under the wheel well and replace both. Also check the tubes where they hug the quarter pannel near the hood they tend to wear through there for the rear washer.
Nice work bro, I will keep following and watching! And now Im hunting for a clean Z71 Tahoe. lol.
love your videos..love your mellow style in the way you shoot your videos and the awesome repair content
I see that jersey mikes. Subs are gassss
I like to spray my engine down with Armor All after I clean it .Let it sit for a hour or so,then wipe off the excess with a clean towel.
i have a chevy silv not a tahoe, but both engine bays look similar so im wanting this, the only thing i really gotta worry about is the alternator?
Dude nice work, nice SUV too. Cant wait for more videos on both your rides
5 years later, do you still recommend this method? Did you have any electrical problems down the road?
Been binge watching your videos, fantastic detail in every single one. You've inspired me to clean up my 97 Expedition. Been dreading it based on the 1/8" thick goo covering everything. Other than covering the alternator, got any other suggestions?
no rattles or vibration? from a thirdgen owner?? Maybe you just can't notice them anymore :)
Lmao yea thats a good point😂
Question, the water will not do any damage? I have an 05 Tahoe & really wanna give this a try. There won't be any issues?
Nice vid..ty...so basically jus need to cover the alternator..not batt terminals..or coils? Ty
Question nothing happens to battery if get wets
That truck will go to about 650,000kms my old 4th gen silverado hade 400,000kms on it
Thanks for the video! I own a 2006 Tahoe PPV with 190k. The engine is really dirty and looking at new radiator as my oil lines into radiator are leaking giving me low oil pressure and leaking like a siv. The challenge is it’s a PPV model and has 3 radiators I think. Am I getting this confused with trans cool lines? I have to keep it looking clean as it still looks like a federal agents Tahoe and it has the 4 speed tranny that makes the engine scream, no redline, no governor, topping out at 148 mph. Lately though it tops around 125 as it needs a tune up. The truck is the only thing I own and I’m planning to repair and rebuild as I grew up on a racetrack. Any radiator or PPV blogs recommended? Love you page as my first car was a 1984 Camaro Z28 followed by a supped up 91 Camaro RS 5 speed and my father used to run a 69 Camaro SS with dual racing stripes. Keep up the good work!

I agree I don't think it's really good to put wax shein on your engine bay because you could get a lot of dirt on it
Were I am just need one plate
drives like a dream
I’m lookin at a 99 Gm 1500, 170k miles, just needs new tires and an axel, and passenger engine shield, worth?
I have a 86 LS suburban and I live in ny Long Island port Washington to be exact… can I bring my truck to you for a tuneup like this ?
Nice Tahoe and it look nice in clean
Great video congrats on the truck
No problems with the coil packs after cleaning the engine?
See the Project Farm Channel video on air filters. K&N lets a ton of dirt through. Exponentially more. Not good.
I noticed you didn’t take out the battery. There’s no issue getting it wet ? I just wanted to know before I clean my 03 silverado
No problem, no need to remove. Just cover the alternator and avoid spraying water directly onto it. Battery can stay exposed.
What about any electrical issues after was everything fine ?
98 2Dr Tahoe right here 160k or so on the odometer just bought her last year in 2020 I love ❤️ the 99 and older Tahoe’s the Throttle body fuel injected ones are most reliable in my opinion. When they put the coils on like they do on Fords I think 🤔 it messed up the longevity in the Engines just my opinion.
Great job came out real clean time to do mine. By the way where did you get your Lsx beanie? Didn't see any on ebay
Hey Matt I saw that K&N sticker on your air filter cover in newer videos and was going to ask you about it. I was thinking about getting a 4" cold air K&N. I thought maybe that's what you had modified under the plastic. But I see you have their regular square filter. Do you think the square filter works as well? I'm more interested in better gas mileage than power personally. I thought more air might me more efficient ignition therefore less gas needed. Anyway thoughts?
Also I did see you do this but do you have to put K&N oil on the square filters you put in the factory housing just like their cone ones? And use their cleaning guild every oil change before oiling it?
Maybe that would be interesting video.
Thanks
my tahoe could use a pressure washer wash. it’s been 300k miles, has never seen a drop of water under the hood, i have one sitting in the garage so might get round to it today
Mine has 334,xxx and still going good
Should’ve been led pod lights but still clean👌🏽
Your my hero
Matt can you do vid on adding an oil catch can?
Have fun when you get to the pan gasket it's a long job, not a hard one but definitely not fun
Im contemplating pulling the timing cover and changing the timing chain as well. We’ll see🤷♂️
@@lsxmatt either replace or clean out the pick up while everything is apart the tired 5.3 will thank you
Did the engine cleaning runoff stain your driveway or damage your lawn in any way?
Anthony Engle your so gay lmfao
Not with just washing it away from driveway. I wouldn't put it in the lawn.
Hey bro you got more info on those fog lights?
What leaf blower are you using
Only problem with this is if the rubber around the nock sensor is brittle it can get water down it under the intake and can trigger a check enguine light
If you drive it after clearing the code is it fine or what
Just spray tire shine on it. It will look brand new!!
Cody Vaughn926 never spray tire shine, one it stinks which will stink out the can and two if it ends up dripping it won’t reach the floor and the congealed mess will clog up the dirty is something else.
Questions bro, I got an 05 Suburban and it's gold and the on the rear door molding action crashes the top of the strips are rusting. I live in Texas and rust isn't an issue here and there's no other rust on the truck. And tips on how to get rid of the rust? Or should I get new ones all together?
Yea if you can replace them thats the best way to go with rust👍
what degreaser spray you use ? LsxMatt ?
Does all these tips and upgrades work for the 2004 Yukon? Also I subscribed because I have a 2004 Yukon and I’m banking on I can use all of these steps!!
Yea same thing!
I just watched that vid lastnight and decided to get a k&n
My Camaro needs this
So you can clean any motor has long as you cover up the alternator? And what's a good brand of spray to clean your motor with?
I like super clean, you can dilute it however you want. Yea just cover the alternator, or dont! Just avoid spraying it directing with the hose. I’d recommend a pressure washer being it doesnt soak the engine in water like a garden hose.
@@lsxmatt thanks
Good job
how much did knew knock sensors cost the owner of the vehicle a few days later?
2 years later, haven’t done them yet.
If I'm not mistaking he had to replace knock sensors few months later got a check engine light..
Where you get the electric ratchet
I got a 2002 singlecab Silverado 4.3 with 140k miles gonna swap it out and put a 5.3😆
Brown where in ny are you
What year is your Tahoe?
Live your dream
Hey Matt, Love the channel and the LTZ is awesome. I noticed you recommend this Power Washer, but you use a different one for your foam cannon. Which would you use if you wanted to use a foam cannon? I want to wash the cars with Foam cannon, but also want one for general purpose like cleaning the deck etc.'
If your just using the foam cannon I would look for one with 2800 psi or higher. A lower psi works, but the foam is much more fluffy with more power. The gas one I have is 2800. It also works better for cleaning oil stains and decks.
@@lsxmatt that's what I needed to know. .Thx!
@@lsxmatt would you do an engine bay with 2800psi though?
Yea just hold it back a little like washing a car.
Tahiti Arthur, Tahiti
We just need M O N E Y
I have 345000 miles on a 2005 gmc 5.3
Nice before and after shots :-)
Is it better to let the engine warm up ??
when cleaning the engine make sure its cool to touch, as if it was hot the product/water will dried on it making it harder to clean. Hopefully this answered your question.
do you have a hydraulic brake booster?
Yea it has the hydroboost.
If you want the coolant container cleaned take it off and let it soak in gas
Almost makes me want a Tahoe now
Should have took the engine cover off too. Guarantee there is gunk there too.
I love my 01 Tahoe!!!! Love the vide!!!@ I did the same thing in and out!!!
raynutty82 I got a 2001 Tahoe too bro , you do the same thing? I might consider it
Hey, that thing needs an exhaust. I have one on my Tahoe and it sounds fantastic.
Randy Perkes What did you install?
Say goodbye to your “knock sensors”...
Do the knock sensors fuck up??
@@goodlife5825 yep dont ever spray front of intake or you will be pulling it off to change knocks
Was that an MD tittle
Yes it was!
callin the cops cuz u did 80
