    Man, learning way more watching these videos than when i was working at a mechanics shop, thanks scotty, helped me with alot of problems on my car, that wouldve taken me otherwise years to learn how to do on my own since mechanics by trade are taught very slowly.

      Well he's been a mechanic for 46 years lol. When working on cars that long you can do anything because it takes about 5-10 to become a great mechanic and fully understand everything in and out when working on a car. The more experience you get working in a shop, the more you're going to understand better. From you're mistakes and from all the training you have working on cars.

      If you like my car help, be sure to watch my live car talk show every Saturday morning at 10 AM CST on UA-cam. I answer your car questions LIVE there. Just go to UA-cam and type in the search engine "Scotty Kilmer Car Talk (and put in the coming Saturday's date, such as "Scotty Kilmer Car Talk February 1" or whatever date the next Saturday is)". That takes you to the live event, and shows how many hours and minutes it is before the event starts on Sat morning. And remember, every TUESDAY I upload a new video, so don’t miss them.

    I made a tool for installing seals on everything....measured seal grabbed a metal pipe and installed a chain link cap” took me 4mins to make” and cost me $4 in material” I have use this tool often when installing seals on customer cars”
    It even does main seals for torc converts” because it goes over the input shaft.

    yes, especially on an older car, more than 7 years old

  • @scottykilmer
    @scottykilmer  11 років тому

    depends on the design, some you can do without taking them all apart. and some are made so you have to take it apart to get to an inner seal

    no, tie rod was not moved on the adjusting nut. And on this car, the strut bolts only go on one way, they are not in slotted holes that are adjustable. Some cars are, but not this one.

  • @scottykilmer
    @scottykilmer  11 років тому

    no dip stick, you remove a side bolt on the transmission, and fluid leaks out that hole. if it doesn't leak out, you add fluid until it does.

  • @scottykilmer
    @scottykilmer  11 років тому

    many things can make noises, but worn bushings often do that, spray WD 40 on em all and see if they quiet down first.

    replace the pcv valve and pray that helps. if not, your engine is flat wearing out and oil is blowing from the crank to the air filter

  • @domenickshaget9560
    @domenickshaget9560 8 років тому +1

    scotty, any reason trans leaks only when hot vs just a bad seal? meaning, if it only leaks when hot, it's more than just a seal? thanks! love it vids

  • @scottykilmer
    @scottykilmer  11 років тому

    just old age, the pads are one time went down to metal, and the rotors weren't changed. BUT, it stops straight, doesn't make noise, and doesn't shimmy at high stopping speeds. So, the owner doesn't care, and neither do I. Perfection is often not needed in machines, realize that.

    • @Lendog19v2
      @Lendog19v2 5 років тому

      Dude, if you're keeping the car, you're gonna need to do this periodically. Buy the tools and they'll probably cost 1 trip to the garage, then the next and all future seal leaks and axle failures will just cost parts.

  • @scottykilmer
    @scottykilmer  11 років тому

    as I already said, brake lines hold 2000 psi upwards, a little hanging isn't going to harm anything that strong. If it did start to leak, it would need replacing anyway.

    im taking my 06 crown vic BACK to the shop this morning for the 3rd time..had the trans rebuild 2 weeks ago and have been back twice already for the tail extension housing seal..still leaking eeven after driving only 10 miles or so. Didnt leak when i brought it to them for the rebuild..just had some neutraling out when taking a corner and a slow 2-3 sec engage from park to drive. They did a full rebuild ($2300) They are either putting it in wrong? i dont see how 2 new seals just leak...its also a transmission shop and you would think they could figure out the correct way...again this is a crown vic...a super simple (classroom) car if u will.

    It was tried, but seal was too hard and worn out. It did slow it down for a long time, but twenty years is about max for any oil seal before they dry out.

    if changing the seal did not stop the leak right there, then the axle shaft is worn and needs replacing. That could make it shake too
