Hey scotty, i use a superchip on my 2001 s10 which requires the higher octane but i am sure the engine is designed for low octane fuel. Does that make a difference for gas milage?
My ex wife's uncle from Chicago is Scottys twin. Same head, face, glasses and accent and he was a car guy too. I used to enjoy talking to him for hours and he loved going on and on about anything. Sure miss that guy. Uncle Jay Vandergriff.

Scotty, when my car was turning over but not starting on cold mornings I remembered what you said, I changed the battery and its been fine ever since, even on the coldest of mornings. Thanks, you saved me a real headache of diagnosis and money buying parts to try to repair it!!!
They still put Coke in the Gas Tanks n Mexico. They also put Coke in the Tires, Wheel Wells, Steering Columns, Trunks, Glove Box, Pockets etc.. Who Nose where else
Yep. Three things that didn't get a mention which probably should have: Under inflated tires, carrying around unnecessary weight, and accelerating and decelerating too quickly.
In my case I think the transmission affects it the most. Lack of vacumn pressure so I manually shift to second and then it wont go to third unless its over 40mph.

Depending on the vehicle technology, coasting forces the car engine to work to keep the idle up. Whereas keeping it in gear keeps the RPMs up with out calling the carbeurator to do the work.
David arruda you need to explain to the mechanically challenged that it’s not the not using the brakes but the halting of acceleration way before the stop (eliminating need for breaking) that reduces gas use.
I wanted to tell him I did what the picture showed and poured Coke into the gas tank. It would work seeing that your car would never run again so no more buying gas. 😊
35 yrs an electrician and for more than 20 yrs I get at least 1 call a week be it a friend, neighbor or relative with some electrical issue. Fortunately I can usually fix it over the phone. Years ago I wanted to start a 900 number system for electrical issues but my father said I was a dumass for thinking of that. A few years later people were making millions off of that kinda thing. It was before the internet so I missed my shot. Now I'm working on my 2cnd million tho. I gave up on my first.
My brother complained of bad gas mileage. I tried driving his car and you could almost see the gauge drop. Finally after testing everything, because he said this started happening suddenly, we found the culprit. He had driven through a grain field and the air filter had plugged solid. New air filter and it drove like new.

Yep. One thing I do is keep a nice "middle ground" for psi of the tires. My tires Max psi is 51 (this is on your tires sidewall) My car recommends 27 but that's so damn low. So I keep it at 35 which reduces rolling resistance and increases fuel economy. You will feel a little bit of the road but it's nothing bad !
@@MiguelRPD mine recommends 32, as does the manufacturer, and I work to maintain that religiously. It has made a big difference in my mileage and wear.

seriously though. there are a lot of people in hawaii that are new from Micronesia. I have had two that came and asked me to see if I can get their new car too run problem? no gas. now you have to remember most places in Micronesia do not have roads they are tiny atolls. they may have bike or moped trails but not highways. so I put gas in for them and reset the brain and show them the the gas gauge and tell them don't let the gas go below 1/4 and I take them down the station for gas and show them how to put it in safely and walk away shaking my head.

I love your videos, I just can't say that enough. I try to make sure I watch all of them. They really are so helpful as a single mother because there's a lot of things I didn't know about cars. For instance, I didn't know you had to balance and rotate your tires every five or eight thousand miles until the last time I bought tires because no one had ever told me. I thought it was something you got done when you got new tires and that was it, a one-time thing. That's why my tires never lasted long but no one ever bothered to tell me any different, my own dad never even taught me that so once I said something, he was like well yeah, if you don't keep them balanced and rotated then they can get crooked basically and we're out and I didn't know this and the lady that worked at the tire shop said, okay will you know if you don't put oil in your car, your engine will blow up right? I thought that was so rude but I said, actually yeah I do know that because I have an oil leak so I have to do that every week. It's the crankshaft seal and you have to do the timing belt along with the water pump and the place quoted me $450 but they never said anything about the timing belt and the water pump, that's what my family mechanic told me so I don't know if that price includes everything or literally just the seal. Does that seem like a price for everything? I'm not sure but I know that I've had a water pump go out and I've had to have it replaced before and just that alone was like $300 but I've also heard that when you have a crankshaft seal oil leak, everything comes inside of a kit with a water pump, timing belt and the new seal. So I would think that's why it makes it cheaper plus are already in there doing all that work right by the water pump in the timing belt. There's just so much invaluable information that I've learned from watching your Channel so I really appreciate it, I say this all the time but I just want you to know
You forgot one system that affects fuel mileage: TIRES. If your tires are underinflated, you wear them out faster and it takes more work to turn them. More work = more fuel.
@@DayofJudgement-ur5gp WRONG! In modern computerized vehicles, the engine can cut off fuel if there is low load or no load on the engine. If you stay in gear and let off the gas while the engine speed is above idle, the engine will cut off fuel. Because you are in gear, the wheels will keep turning the engine so it doesn't stall. If you are in neutral the wheels won't turn the engine, so the engine has to send fuel to maintain idle. The computer will always maximize fuel consumption and emission levels. You can't outsmart the computer.
Wow I learn something everyday watching your videos Scotty! I have a 93 Toyota Camry with 206K on it. I've been pumping premium in it for years and years just because I thought it would get better mileage and not ping as much and have better pickup. Now that premium is over $5.00 a gallon I've been using 87 octane and the mileage actually seems to have improved. 🙄 Who knew? 🤦♀️
@J Richards Actually the air goes through the valve stem which is IN the wheel and it ends up between the wheels and the tires...🤔 We always think of the air being in the tires because it is the tires that show the effects of lacking air since they go flat. A damaged wheel could cause the loss of air pressure but the wheel doesn't go flat only the tire does.
Your Amazing man you’ve taught me a ton of new techniques! I’ve lost thousands of dollars on cars by not knowing about them. And your page sheds so much light! Your truly a blessing.. One Love and I Wish you and anyone who reads this Nothing but the Best! We need more love and less hate !
This guy is awesome! I swear I could watch a documentary on the mechanics of cars with Scotty as the Narrator. Really great bloke who knows his stuff. Keep up with the great videos, mate!
Scotty - EPA testing involves the use of Indolene as a fuel, which has a relatively high octane rating. EPA testing never exceeds 60 MPH and never uses full throttle. Interesting how the engineers work with these parameters.
Thank you Scotty! Late comer. Not being a car person, I was shocked when my dealer wanted 80 bucks to change the air and cabin filter. Went out and bought my own for $5. SIMPLE install, AND better gas mileage. You were my impetus to do so.
Scotty god forbid, if you went with him, would your videos be available to us on here ? Also , we very much appreciate you, your humor , your knowledge , and the time you take to do all you do for the public. The best of it is for those of us who either like to, are capable, or can't afford to pay a mechanic, and most importantly you wise us up cause you choose to expose the shady by being honest when perhaps some of these cons are just that.
I bought an air filter at O'Reilly for my Toyota Camry. The rim of the filter was too thick for me to shut the air filter box. I took it back, and ordered the Toyota one from Amazon, and it was cheaper, and fit properly, and is OEM!
I had a similar problem on my 2016 Camry, where I bought an air filter from there and the outer rim would get caught while I'm trying to shut the filter cover. I managed to get it in there but man, it was such a freaking hassle. I'll stick to OEM from now on.
Rah rah rah rah rah 😂😂😂 I had to make sure I had this playing at normal speed...It's like his mouth is tryin so hard to catch up to the words comin out of it lol. This is the most amped I've ever seen him..🤸..if he started doing cartwheels it wouldn't have surprised me 😅
Hi Scotty, I am a little surprised that you did not touch on tire air pressure. I know in climates where the air temp changes regularly (Alberta, Canada), tire pressure can change 2-3 psi overnight. Anyways I thought it might be worth mentioning. Cheers Jaime
Great video 📹 as always. I like how we can get better mileage with simple steps. 9 minutes and 22 seconds later I learned alot and there was great humor. Thanks 😊
Scotty, had a rental car yesterday - Nissan Kicks 2020. The gas mileage was horrible. Fuelled it up yesterday in the evening around 8 pm. The following day, around 11 am, the fuel indicator was at 76% already. Put regular fuel as per the rental company's guide. There is no bloody way it consumes so much fuel because i only drove around 50 km that day. Definitely something from with the car. When i noticed it driving yesterday, I immediately remembered your video. Thanks a bunch! You are GOD !
Amazing and fun video Scotty, thanks for posting it. Just want to mention you missed one cause for very low mileage that is low tire pressure. I know it fron experience living in Peru where the roads are bad and you get nails in your tires often. One tire at 19 psi instead of 24 makes a big difference. I learned it with my 82 Honda Prelude. 🙂
I wish you would live here in Kingston Springs Tennessee . . I've learned a lot by listening to you. You're full of logic and Common Sense. Love you man take care of yourself be careful out there. You are a real good mechanic number one. I appreciate you.

Really good tips. Incorrect tire pressure can also affect mpg as well. Probably the easiest to check too.
Very true, surprised he didn't mention it.
Probably because under inflated tires amount to the least percentage of bad gas mileage problems. 0.4% per every 1psi drop.
Most car mechanics know that
Yep. Three things that didn't get a mention which probably should have: Under inflated tires, carrying around unnecessary weight, and accelerating and decelerating too quickly.
In my case I think the transmission affects it the most. Lack of vacumn pressure so I manually shift to second and then it wont go to third unless its over 40mph.

It's the crankshaft seal and you have to do the timing belt along with the water pump and the place quoted me $450 but they never said anything about the timing belt and the water pump, that's what my family mechanic told me so I don't know if that price includes everything or literally just the seal. Does that seem like a price for everything? I'm not sure but I know that I've had a water pump go out and I've had to have it replaced before and just that alone was like $300 but I've also heard that when you have a crankshaft seal oil leak, everything comes inside of a kit with a water pump, timing belt and the new seal. So I would think that's why it makes it cheaper plus are already in there doing all that work right by the water pump in the timing belt. There's just so much invaluable information that I've learned from watching your Channel so I really appreciate it, I say this all the time but I just want you to know
You forgot one system that affects fuel mileage: TIRES. If your tires are underinflated, you wear them out faster and it takes more work to turn them. More work = more fuel.
Yeah there's a lot you can do to up your mileage. Accelerating down hills and limiting acceleration up hills.
Alignment is very important too
@@remington1844 ....why would you accelerate down hill? Put it in neutral so your pistons are revving at a slower rate
@@DayofJudgement-ur5gp WRONG! In modern computerized vehicles, the engine can cut off fuel if there is low load or no load on the engine. If you stay in gear and let off the gas while the engine speed is above idle, the engine will cut off fuel. Because you are in gear, the wheels will keep turning the engine so it doesn't stall. If you are in neutral the wheels won't turn the engine, so the engine has to send fuel to maintain idle. The computer will always maximize fuel consumption and emission levels. You can't outsmart the computer.
Facts I'm a trucker and with proper inflation I get 1.7 mpg extra.
Everytime I watch a Scotty video I feel like I'm getting a cheat sheet at school.
Wow I learn something everyday watching your videos Scotty! I have a 93 Toyota Camry with 206K on it. I've been pumping premium in it for years and years just because I thought it would get better mileage and not ping as much and have better pickup. Now that premium is over $5.00 a gallon I've been using 87 octane and the mileage actually seems to have improved. 🙄 Who knew? 🤦♀️
Yikes, don't even think of the money wasted or you might be upset with yourself lol
@@paulcarlin5181 ..exactly! 😅
Who would have thought John Lennon was such a great mechanic! Thank you sir!
Lol, yes the resemblance to each other.... didn't think about till reading your comment
Robert Brown...your RIGHT!!!
🤣🤣🤣
Zen Scotty Engine Peace...✌
This cool cat seems to know everything about vehicles! Thanks Scotty!
Another is not having the correct air pressure in the wheels.
The air goes in your tyres mate not the wheels,this could be causing your bad fuel consumption issues 😂
Yup 35psi 100% always & only.
@J Richards
Actually the air goes through the valve stem which is IN the wheel and it ends up between the wheels and the tires...🤔 We always think of the air being in the tires because it is the tires that show the effects of lacking air since they go flat. A damaged wheel could cause the loss of air pressure but the wheel doesn't go flat only the tire does.
Or even the tyres 😂😂😂
@@Davido50 Depends on your vehicle. It is not always and only.
Great videos Scotty! I have learned to do minor repairs on my car watching your videos. Keep up the good work !
you ever light your farts on fire?🤣
I think this video is a gold mine of knowledge. Thank you Scotty.
More of a mustard yellow
Scotty has too much fun making those thumbnails.
wtf, i just filled up with 30 litres of pepsi, now car wont start.
Pepsi okay? No should of used coke
Use cherry pepsi for best results
Diet Coke and mentos makes it super fast make sure to check for leaks with a lighter
Chad Sempson thank you 🙏 you saved my mother in-law a trip to the shop. UA-cam never gives u wrong advice she said it’s on the Internet.
Regular Coke only.
It cranks like ra ra ra ra ra 😂😂😂 freaking scotty man kills me.
Love your videos man! Keep em coming. You're a clever guy who definitely knows the internal mechanics of vehicles.
Scotty Kilmer videos have the best comments. True comedy.
S*** I'm late to work again.
M
You make the best educational videos for cars. Entertaining too
Your Amazing man you’ve taught me a ton of new techniques! I’ve lost thousands of dollars on cars by not knowing about them. And your page sheds so much light! Your truly a blessing.. One Love and I Wish you and anyone who reads this Nothing but the Best! We need more love and less hate !
This guy is awesome! I swear I could watch a documentary on the mechanics of cars with Scotty as the Narrator. Really great bloke who knows his stuff. Keep up with the great videos, mate!
Scotty - EPA testing involves the use of Indolene as a fuel, which has a relatively high octane rating. EPA testing never exceeds 60 MPH and never uses full throttle. Interesting how the engineers work with these parameters.
I love the bird emojis when the birds are screaming!!! LOL
I love the added fact that some of them are on his shoulder lol
That's all you got from this video? Such a woman
@@brick9233 Such an ignorant reply, sorry my lack of a penis bores you. I'm sure Scotty loves compliments on his creative editing.
This is a Classic UA-cam Channel. It has those old UA-cam vibes and I LOVE IT! Very Vintage.
You have spoken my mind.
The bird images 😂 scotty pays attention to detail
Yea it had me falling out laughing
Who puts the pictures in? Is it Scotty himself?
The illegal Immigrant I was fcking rolling
We need more mechanics like you Scotty,most mechanics are just about the money and dont care about the customer
Thank you Scotty! Late comer. Not being a car person, I was shocked when my dealer wanted 80 bucks to change the air and cabin filter. Went out and bought my own for $5. SIMPLE install, AND better gas mileage. You were my impetus to do so.
$5?? guessing they were cheapies
@@sl4983 Oh my!! That was supposed to be $35.00.
Scotty god forbid, if you went with him, would your videos be available to us on here ? Also , we very much appreciate you, your humor , your knowledge , and the time you take to do all you do for the public. The best of it is for those of us who either like to, are capable, or can't afford to pay a mechanic, and most importantly you wise us up cause you choose to expose the shady by being honest when perhaps some of these cons are just that.
Scotty Kilmer is the type of guy that would have nightmares and scream *ENDLESS MONEY PITS* when he wakes up.
LMAO
Or a wet dream where he just repeats, “ oh Toyota!, oh Toyota!” over and over.
3:05 😂😂😂 Scotty make my day everyday 3:27
You know, your name Sabah is a state in Malaysia
@@keepchrist my country ???
Rev up your Mustard!!:)
Did he do it in purpose for a laugh
@3:05 I choked on my coffee and nearly died. Pop up pictures are always hilarious
I don't even HAVE a car - and I love this man!
LOL [lots of love]
Lol 😁
I bought an air filter at O'Reilly for my Toyota Camry. The rim of the filter was too thick for me to shut the air filter box. I took it back, and ordered the Toyota one from Amazon, and it was cheaper, and fit properly, and is OEM!
I had a similar problem on my 2016 Camry, where I bought an air filter from there and the outer rim would get caught while I'm trying to shut the filter cover. I managed to get it in there but man, it was such a freaking hassle. I'll stick to OEM from now on.
Bet people searched this video after gas prices started going through the roof 😔
Where is he getting all that knowledge on cars ,he is incredible . Thanks Scotty .
The liquor is calling the shots now, Randy!
I am the liquor!
The memes and random birds popping up during the video had me deeaadddd
Really
Rah rah rah rah rah 😂😂😂
I had to make sure I had this playing at normal speed...It's like his mouth is tryin so hard to catch up to the words comin out of it lol. This is the most amped I've ever seen him..🤸..if he started doing cartwheels it wouldn't have surprised me 😅
Yeah every time a crow cawed there was one popping up lol
Who else thought the secret was putting cola in your gas tank cuz of the thumbnail.😂
An put mentos for Increased horsepower an torque with the cola.
Should be Diet coke...
Hey Scotty , this video as the all other ones, is Amazing,
God bless u Scotty 👍
Hi Scotty, I am a little surprised that you did not touch on tire air pressure. I know in climates where the air temp changes regularly (Alberta, Canada), tire pressure can change 2-3 psi overnight. Anyways I thought it might be worth mentioning. Cheers Jaime
Yeah, Oblama said checking air tire pressure would solve the energy crisis. remember that one 🤣
Eating a mustard sandwich before heading out can increase your fuel economy too.
How
Lmao. @Avinash Marcel did you actually watch the video?
@@metalallday1 I did but I didn't get it
@@avim4896 it's just cuz dude in the video has a yellow stain on his face lol
@@metalallday1 LoL now I got it. Thanks
Scotty, only the experienced have the best stories. You are the man! Thanks for sharing. Love your way of keeping it real.
Great video 📹 as always. I like how we can get better mileage with simple steps. 9 minutes and 22 seconds later I learned alot and there was great humor. Thanks 😊
Those birds popping up had me weak 😂😅😭
“Started up and ran like a champ” - Scotty Kilmer
Thank you Scott, I appreciate your efforts. Don't pay attention to the negative reviews. You know your stuff.
Scotty, had a rental car yesterday - Nissan Kicks 2020. The gas mileage was horrible. Fuelled it up yesterday in the evening around 8 pm. The following day, around 11 am, the fuel indicator was at 76% already. Put regular fuel as per the rental company's guide. There is no bloody way it consumes so much fuel because i only drove around 50 km that day. Definitely something from with the car. When i noticed it driving yesterday, I immediately remembered your video. Thanks a bunch! You are GOD !
Amazing and fun video Scotty, thanks for posting it.
Just want to mention you missed one cause for very low mileage that is low tire pressure. I know it fron experience living in Peru where the roads are bad and you get nails in your tires often. One tire at 19 psi instead of 24 makes a big difference. I learned it with my 82 Honda Prelude. 🙂
4:31 'Mechanic like me'. You're the only mechanic like you, Scotty! 🤣🤣🤣
Excellent point. Too true.
Scotty - You're up to 1.9 MILLION subscribers. WOW! You're definitely doing something right. Congrats!
1notgilty yeah that’s 1.9 million new car customers after they try this crap. Lol
he should buy a lamborghini
Genuinely liked how he said people don't look at much these days then shows a picture of someone on their phone, cause FACTS!!!
Easiest is make sure the tire air pressure is correct to specs.
KEVIN GRAVES weather fluctuates tire pressure regardless
Mustard and all, I still love these videos... so much info and entertainment at the same time.
Hope he checked the mustard pressure on his face.
Low tire pressures = low fuel mileage, too.
More than a master mechanic, Scotty is also a master salesman. I clicked on this to see him actually pour Coke into a gas tank!
Scotty the birds were the funniest thing I’ve seen all month😂😂
Do u edit your vids,yourself,or do u have assistance?..always entertaining & helpful
You forgot about checking tire pressure, Scotty!
I wish you would live here in Kingston Springs Tennessee . . I've learned a lot by listening to you. You're full of logic and Common Sense. Love you man take care of yourself be careful out there. You are a real good mechanic number one. I appreciate you.
You're exactly right I tell my customers the same thing
This channel is too good. Thank you 🙏🏼
Scotty you got me with that coke on the fuel picture jajaja
