Scotty can you talk about lightweight aluminum crank pullies in a video some people say that they cause crank/bearings to wear out others say they’re fine and a cheap way to free up some horsepower thanks. I just put one on my accord one mechanic even refused to install it because he said it would destroy my engine! Stock pulley is 7 lbs the aluminum one from Unorthodox Racing is 0.8 lbs
Scotty Whats your idea for toyota GT86 TRD 2.0 147kW ? Its an 2017 version and costs 17990 euros (21209.31 dollars), it has 19k kilometers driven. Accoring to them it hasnt been driven during winter (live in estonia)

You mean they do not have Auto Shop in high schools! I took Auto Shop in 1967 and it helped me learn a lot about autos way before Scotty did however I am still learning from him.
Same here I took auto mechanics in highschool too. I learned alot. Almost had a tractor bucket fall on me! What doesn't kill you makes you stranger!😀😀😀
@@Ninnuam999 yes that's what we learned too. They school had body shops too. My friend took building trades and he helped build several houses and then got a job in the trade.

I bought a 2000 Lexus es300 at 190k and so far I replaced the brake pads/rotors, spark plugs and I'm about to do the struts. They were so bad that the automated car wash bent my back strut and now the tire is rubbing. I love watching your videos!!! I trust what you're saying and I love your energy!!! I love learning about cars because people don't expect a lot of women to be concerned about taking care if their car, mine is 21yrs old now and luckily for me almost everything was replaced under the hood b4 I bought it😁😁
Scotty, I appreciate your honesty & willingness to share your "trade secrets." It's like all of us have a Master Mechanic in our family right here on UA-cam! Not like the oil companies that won't tell YOU the additives or amounts thereof!
Just bought a 2014 Lexus rx350 and we love it. Thanks for the reminder that I need to check the drive belt. Also thank you Scotty for what you do, you really help people out. Be careful going to Boston.
I really love watching scotty its all about safety and he always wants you to use your common sense and save yourself from future headaches due to breakdown in you're car thanks for sharing
Quick Tip: Keep the old belt in the car (in the trunk) in case you have a problem. Maybe even a simple socket set too so you can install the belt if yours breaks while on the road. In most vehicles, you can install a fan belt with minimal fuss (cars it's a bit harder because the engine compartment is smaller and things are crammed in more, plus they are generally transverse). A good sepentine belt will probably run you about $50-80. Don't buy the cheap $20 belts. You get what you pay for and they likely could break within a few years, and obviously, at the most inconvenient time. Just spend the extra money. It's something you replace every 8-10 years and could become a safety thing if your vehicle stalls because the belt breaks. Not worth it to save $50. Top Gear has gone down hill since they started spinning off the original BBC one with Clarkson, Hammond and May. I mean the one with Wood, Fererra and and Faust is OK but after that it's sort of gotten dumb, sort of like the FAst and Furious over the years. It was good for a few movies, but after that it was the same thing over and over again, different crew and location.
.... the fast and furious crack 😂😂😂 Different crew? It's the same crew. Just bringing them back to life after they get killed off lol And added some losers like jon cena Another pro tip: always buy from a autozone. So if it does break down, pull into an AZ and warranty it out
Thank you Scotty for everything, and thank you to your moderators for answering all my questions on ask Scotty. What you have going on here is a very good public service.
Love the show. I learned on older cars and I have learned a lot about what to be aware of when working on modern cars. Savesd me from ruining my ABS system. Thanks Scotty!
Always enjoy watching and listening to someone who shares their honest and straight forward opinion, especially in today’s world. All the best from Canada
The timing was also suspiciously perfect for me. My Opel corsa died on me about a week ago, wouldn't start. I finally got the mechanic over, today, to have a look and the cambelt is snapped. I'll be replacing it tomorrow, hopefully no further damage occured 😬
@@thebassboostedchannel1251 Only? lol all are easy, just tedious as hell. I'm lucky cause all I need to do is pull the tensioner, slip off, and slip on
You are absolutely the most amazingly helpful & knowledgeable car mechanic I have ever heard of & I truly appreciate you!! Been turning to you videos for years. Thank you so much for being so giving with knowledge.
Hi Mr.Kilmer, Since watching your videos I have learned about the basics of mechanics of vehicles and I have considered your opinions from the past to the present about which is dependable and has quality. I am not a mechanic but it is a awesome dedication in helping people out something that I have not seen in many, many years. Thank you. Bless you. Be safe. :)
@rasheemthebestfirstone3274 you can never be too careful, wnd you get what you pay for. That's coming from me. A 21 year old with 2 kids. I've owned 8 cars since 17
As a autozone employee who changes battery daily for costumers I do hate when batteries have protectors or covers it makes the job harder so i understand Scotty why he hates the covers it’s just extra work
I usually work on my cars so I appreciate you taking the time and effort to show people how to work on their own cars. You tubers get out of your comfort zone and try to fix it yourself !
Thank you for all your helpful videos. My favorite was the one showing how to "Replace a Power Steering Rack". After removing the bolts, etc. you said to "wiggle, curse, and swear and it comes right out". I wiggled, pulled, pushed, turned... It would not come out until I added the cursing and swearing after the wiggling. Success.! Thank you.
I just bought a 6-cylinder Tacoma with 150K on the timing belt (60K overdue), but I'll pay to have it changed. (Even the Chilton book warns about the difficulty, and not to even try it, unless you know what you're doing---and I don't).
Hi Scotty, should the tensioner be changed too while changing the belt? Some brands (BMW) recommend that. Probably not a bad idea as the tensioner is a moving part and can definitely wear out.
Thank you for the belt install tip Scotty,have a 2006 Corolla with over 316 thousand, recommend you to everyone here in Northern Nova Scotia. All the best.
@The Duke, when I went through automotive repair training back in 1988-1990 the automobile industry was intentionally engineering vehicles more difficult to eliminate the "Shade Tree Backyard Mechanic" as the Dealerships were only making money from vehicle sales and warranty maintenance/repairs once the warranty ran out people would work on their own vehicles and this would cost national automobile repair chains money on repairing vehicles when the warranty expired.

Hey Scotty I did the belt on my 06 Civic and the new and old belts were different sizes. Found out later that they revamped the pattern because of things snapping. Awesome video!
Scotty, I NEED A NEW TORQUE WRENCH ! I used my old one as a breaker bar one to many times and it broke. Imagine that. But that wont happen again because I now have real breaker bar. It works great. Love your show.
Thanks for this advice, Scotty. I have to change one on my 2007 Tacoma since it has 80,000 miles. It doesn't have any visible cracks but its the original one. I am fortunate this thing hasn't come apart on our move from Mississippi to Arizona in 2023. Its ultra dry here and it could happen anytime. I don't want a breakdown in town. Its expensive here to take a chance if i can fix it now.
great that you give advice that might seem obvious to anyone who knows about cars but is not 'common sense' to someone, like me, with next to no mechanical knowledge.
Stumbled across your channel recently and been inspired. Swapped my busted tire, new engine and cabin filters. Gonna get to doing oil next. Thanks for all the educating!
Scotty is a true Master. I have same issue from Fan belt for Lexus GS 2006. It makes noise when i start the car in winter but in summer no noise. Thank you for useful videos.

I was actually just wondering about what signs you need to look for to see what condition your belts are in.
I went to the Gates website, they will send you a free belt wear guide if you ask-I got 2 of them and instructions on how to use it.....
Hi Scotty, should the tensioner be changed too while changing the belt? Some brands (BMW) recommend that. Probably not a bad idea as the tensioner is a moving part and can definitely wear out.
Only if it's loose. You can easily tell if it's still working or not. But no, definitely don't change a part that's still working fine.

Yes I still call it that.
still giving it away ?😂😂😂
Scotty's always entertaining with straight talking education no one else is like him.
Hey Scotty I did the belt on my 06 Civic and the new and old belts were different sizes. Found out later that they revamped the pattern because of things snapping. Awesome video!
Now this is the tool I really want to have in order to be able to work on my car, thank you so much. Scotty
It's only sir scotty that tells us, or gives us advise on what to do in our cars..
Salute to you sir👍
Scotty, I NEED A NEW TORQUE WRENCH !
I used my old one as a breaker bar one to many times and it broke. Imagine that. But that wont happen again because I now have real breaker bar. It works great. Love your show.
The one tool I sure could use. You are the saver of us back yard mechanics.
Thanks for this advice, Scotty. I have to change one on my 2007 Tacoma since it has 80,000 miles. It doesn't have any visible cracks but its the original one. I am fortunate this thing hasn't come apart on our move from Mississippi to Arizona in 2023. Its ultra dry here and it could happen anytime. I don't want a breakdown in town. Its expensive here to take a chance if i can fix it now.
Thanks Scotty, I have a 2011 Infiniti QX56 and your belt replacement demo helped me change mine.
My car has been squeaking horribly and at first I thought it was an issue with my power steering, but now I’m going to check my belts!
i was about to pay someone to change my belt, but now i think ill just do it myself thank you scotty!
The belt in my 2005 Honda Accord disintegrated earlier today on the way to an app. Now I know which brand to buy, thank you!
So much information inside scotty. I dont think he will ever run out of good advice
Thank you for the good advice. My Corolla is now 6 years old but still have under 50,000 miles.
great that you give advice that might seem obvious to anyone who knows about cars but is not 'common sense' to someone, like me, with next to no mechanical knowledge.
Scotty gives some great advises and probably saves people lots of money and headaches. We thank you for that.
Stumbled across your channel recently and been inspired. Swapped my busted tire, new engine and cabin filters. Gonna get to doing oil next. Thanks for all the educating!
Scotty is a true Master. I have same issue from Fan belt for Lexus GS 2006. It makes noise when i start the car in winter but in summer no noise. Thank you for useful videos.
@Mark Codiroli Thank you Mark.
