Scotty, you worked on the Olds Rocket 350 and Chevy 350, was the Oldsmobile 350 Rocket superior as some people claim?
Hey scotty, I'm from England and have found a 2010 1.8L toyota auris hybrid with 33000 miles in my area for around £7000, is it worth it?
Every time I go to website it's out of stock
@@jayschnabel9977 same here
@@jayschnabel9977 Scotty bought it all...
Scotty is the only additive I need to make my day run better!
The only prescription is more cowbell.
Bahahahahahahahahah
He turns you on too man?
Scotty is addictive additive to my day.
Haha that was great
It's a little sad seeing scotty get old I've been watching him for over 10 years, but I hope he gets to live till 100 or even more and be healthy the entire way through since he deserves it
😢😢😢
Scotty will eventually get old as we all do, but he’s definitely not old yet…except possibly in the eyes of much younger viewers! ✌🏻
@@OwnedByACatNamedC.C.Thank you. I'm the same age as Scotty. I feel fine. Just a little slower on the draw. 😂
I just started watching this guy and can't quit. I wish he lived closer to me .
505 and marvel mystery will keep it running 115. I wish he was jdm.
Scotty is a genius, I wish all the mechanics would be like him!! He’s unique and super knowledgeable in his field…. I wish him good health and longevity!!!
Nobody going to mention how insanely clean that 24 year old Lexus is for 334,000 miles? It’s in shockingly good shape for that mileage.
Had to be restored at one point no way it looks that good after 334,000 thousands miles in its original condition
i believe its 334k kilometers not miles because the spedo in Km/h
No doubt that engine is clean though.
Neighbour’s caddy CTS almost as old with high mileage and almost pristine. Front bumper was replaced but rest orig. He and wife only owners, mostly hwy with some in town plus reg maint and oil spray to prevent rust (Ontario, Canada) every fall. I’ve done same spray to all my cars and none had rust. Many others I know say same. Worth $100 CAD per yr.
Scotty mentioned it. No need for us to gush.
For anyone wondering if this stuff really works, after running through the rest of that tank and another full tank of regular gas, the shuddering is completely gone. Funny enough, the AC compressor went out the next day, so after I fix that the Lexus will be in great shape!
congrats on the car, that's a nice one.
take care of it, they have a following.
@@volvo09 I definitely will. It was a birthday gift for my wife, so it'll be well loved and taken care of
@@CoffeeonKorriban awesome!
I had an 01 tundra that I owned till just about 300k miles. It was in the family since new, and still ran like new when I got rid of it last year for scrap... Only reason it had to go was because of excessive rust, absolutely everything was rusty and falling apart. If that was a southern vehicle it would still be around today, it was so reliable. It hurt to get rid of it.
That suv is amazing, you got a great deal, change the oil every 5k with fully synthetic oil and that engine will go another 350k miles. Wish you the best!
You scored with this one at that price! Take care of it and keep it running.
Wish there were more mechanics like Scotty. Any work that I need to be done to my car I check Scotty's videos first to see what he says. Great know ledge and wisdom.
Yep...I wonder who will be the next Scotty K when he's gone
There will never be another like him he is an ICON !!!
I really enjoy these diagnostic video's ... unlike many other channels ... Scotty actually explains what codes and data mean ... 🤔
I like it when he says these codes won’t change the way a car runs, Now We Know
I had a 2001 Camry CE that developed a check engine light that turned out to be an evap code. Scotty suggested in another video that Shell gasoline could cure the problem. I burned nearly all the gas in this car and then filled it up with Shell gasoline. The check engine light went out and the code disappeared after burning half a tank. I added ATS oil additive to my 2012 Camry LE hybrid with 147K miles yesterday. The oil that came out of the engine was nearly black after this treatment! This ATS gas treatment is next for this Camry! I wish that I lived next door to Scotty. He is a true automotive savant. Trust what he says implicitly!
I just ordered three packs of these. I don’t have any problem with my cars. I figure I use them for preventative maintenance. Thanks bud.
The cleaner that Scotty dumps in the tank is from ATS carbon clean and called "505 CRF" for fuel and "505 CRO" for oil. The MSDS, aside from mystery ingredients under "TRADE SECRETS", says active ingredients are "Dipentene", Limonene, turpentine, some kind of organic peroxide, and "oil". Dipentene is a tree-based oil used in solvents and pharmaceuticals.
And you don't have to smell it to know it works. If you can smell it you are breathing it, just beware.
Is this a good thing or a warning you are giving? Also would you not recommend doing 2 bottles ?
Some would say the smell is addictive…
Tried it. Didn’t notice any difference 🤷♂️
@@stevesmith756 He said Injectors may need replacing but cleaning may help. Yours may need to be replaced.
Scotty, you amaze me. Wish all mechanics were as knowledgeable as you.
So greatful for your videos.
YOU ARE THE MAN!
Even if I don’t have any car issues I still like watching Scotty’s videos. They’re very entertaining
Hey Scotty, I got a 07 Chevrolet cobalt. I security lights on and I can’t get it to shut off. I got power to everything but it still won’t start or turn over.
PS I can jump the solenoid over, and it will start for a few seconds, but it dies right away
I don't even have a car or plans to get one, and I watch. I feel better about the human race thanks to him.
I could literally watch several shows and seasons of Scotty..if he was a TV show!
Right
I just started to become interested in doing my own work when it comes to minor things in my car and your videos are the best! Thank you!
The Chevron Techron fuel cleaner works just fine, probably one of the best made.
A bad fuel injector symptom is so much like the symptom of a bad spark plug. I didn't know that until I got a vehicle with a fuel injector for each cylinder. The first symptom was bad gas mileage.
Thanks Scotty!! I put Bernie’s in my car and it went from 16 mpg to 27 to 30 mpg😮. I also used the motor oil treatment and boy was the oil dirty. Saved me a lot of money on repairs.
Bernies?
I'm wondering what Bernie's is too. @@dean3184
Scotty is my favorite guy on the net. What a good dude . Funny too
I just found your videos and have watched a few now and gotta say of all the car repair do it your self, yours I feel are the best. Enjoying them, plus you explain thing perfect. I will be watching more.
THANK YOU, SCOTTY! I have really appreciated your knowledge over the years.
Scotty I have an ‘06 of the same LX generation with 397k miles on it; very well made vehicles
Because of Scotty I'm holding on to my 240K Hyundai ioniq cat converter until it's perfect time to replace it....thanks again Mr Scotty for the wonderful lacquer thinner blog ...it's forever science and I'm very grateful of your videos
Way to go Scotty you just brought me more information that I didn't know I need that I can put to Everyday Use
I ordered the carbon cleaner and fuel additive and then changed my oil to Amsoil let me tell you my 2014 Lexus is250 is running like a dream!
Scotty is sniffing the cleaner again! Explains a lot.
That's cold man !
Honestly, when I need a pick me up, Scotty does the trick every time. Love this guy and his content.
“Kind of an addicting smell!” Scotty, no huffing allowed, this is a family show! 🤣🤣🤣
I always wondered what Scotty was huffing. Now I know.
May cause orchestra conductor hands
I bought some last yr & it does have a intriguing smell 😅😅
All them tree oils and turps ? Might be my go to party favourite from now on.
@@jesusbarajas4840 Can you explain the smell? I find it interesting as this time of the year my nose is so plugged up 🆙.
I love this guy is always keeping it real can't get much better than listening to Scottie
Here’s the problem: Bernie’s cleaner is unavailable right now, due to supply shortages, found this out when I went to the ATS website
Awesome description of what was going on! Thank you!
This man's videos has helped me trouble shot alot of stuff.
The interior of this LX is incredible for 300k miles! Wow
So i have the same matrix scotty has. And boy he has helped me keep my car alive and to find a local good mechanic for serious issues. Car now has over 243 thousand miles and still running.
I have followed Scotty's advice and purchased the Lucas Lubricant / injector cleaner with immediate results. I drive a Scion iQ with the Toyota 1.3L sewing machine engine. Hwy economy went from 6L/100kms to 5L/100kms. Broken down that works out to approximently 50kms (30mi) further per tank of fuel. All this at a cost of $11.99CAN. I may not be saving any money with the additive but my car and the environment is happier about it.
Scotty you forgot to put the cleaner in the description! 😳
For those wondering its called ATS 505 CRF 🥳
i love this guy ive learned so much stuff from this dude
Love Scotty hand talk..I see the video with out audio and Play a Simponhy and Scotty becomes the MASTER OF MECHANIC SYMPHONY. THANK YOU SCOTTY LOVE THE INFO AND YOUR VIDEOS. THANK YOU, THANK YOU.
I'm listening, among other driver with automotive service issues.blessed.
Very impressive tool to be able to get a list of all the cylinders and a misfire count! 🥳
How many people would have started plucking plugs and wires 😳

Thanks scotty for your expert advice 👍 I learn something new every day 👏
I love any human who passes down knowledge I’m always open ears ready to screw up a couple times to better myself in the future
1000
I had this misfire feel with my Subaru. I bought one ignition coil off rockauto, and luckily the first cylinder I tried was the issue. Cylinder 1 misfire was fixed. No more hesitation and my mileage went up by 6 or 7.
There was a time where everyone had to have an emissions test every single year in the state of Tennessee before you got your new tags for that year. So you newcomers including you Scotty are very lucky.
Once again.... A testament to the quality of Toyotas. As always I love your videos and appreciate you showing us these things. Thank you Scotty.
❤ Love you Scotty .you have been bout the only mechanic I can stand to Listen to.
That Lexus looks great.
Techron is what I use with water removal and works great ! Water removal is for the ethonol in gas that turns to water .
I love you scotty, please keep making videos every day you are putting great info out there!!
I'm happy to hear your voice back scotty
Thanks for another GREAT video,loved it SCOTTY 👍
Thank you for the videos you make, they're very helpful!
I went from having no job, no car, no balls, to having a full time job, a car and a truck-
-these videos help me out so much, preciate you Scotty !!! (no balls still though LOL)
Scotty you are the man! Please keep up the good work.
6:20 hand gesture frenzy warning 😂
Scott is honest and truthful
Imagine how amazing and prosperous and better the World would be if everyone did their WORK with honesty, instead of trying to rip off and squeeze every penny out of each other.
Scotty your laquer thinner tip for catalytic converters worked to clean my fuel injection system in my 03 Yukon so now I have smooth idle and acceleration!! I used 1quart of thinner to 5gallons of gas.
If you ever have issues with starting or misfiring in the rain, and your vehicle has a dizzy, check it for cracks. I’ve seen that on many GM vehicles.
My fav Scotty is Q and A time. But they are all good!
My very best honest mechanic!!!!!👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Genius stuff my friend...wow!!!
Very cool! Thanks Scotty!
I ordered some ATS chemical fuel cleaner 505 CRF waiting for it to arrive. Will update after I use it and test it.
I had a miss fire on my 2004 Jeep Cherokee 4.0 liter, no code either, but you and see and feel it when idling. I changed the spark plugs, still doing it. If you put in fuel injector cleaner it clears up some, but it still had a miss fire and idling rough. I put in a new igniter bank, that cleared it all up, runs and purrs like it was a new engine, but with my code reader and the code reader at a trusted mechanic, not was registered.
Lexus 98' is gorgeous!
Hey Scotty, years ago you recommended using Lacquer Thinner to clean the fuel system and fix a catalytic converter. Might that have worked in this case? Or do you think buying a more expensive product specifically sold for this purpose would be better?
I have a LAUNCH scanner for what I understand good model x431 v+ v4.0 and I am just learning how to use it there is so much to learn with this thing.
Scotty....You are a genius, always my guy.
Best fuel additive i tested are STP diesel , and Stp injector cleaner...but disapointed of Full version of Stp that is double priced...the ultra cleaner..or something
I live in the same county as that owner. Nice looking LX. Good video, I think I need to do this to mine as well.
Thanks, man! Knox county is a great area.
Also check the aHC piping and fluid
Thats the cleanest engine Ive ever seen! Over 300k miles, amazing!
It's a bummer because the fuel additive company that you recommend is out of the fuel additive and the oil cleaner additive at this time. I've been wanting to get some for a while, and then seeing you once again recommend it, I finally decided to spend the money and get a couple of their kits. Unfortunately they are out and will email when they are back in stock. You probably already know this but just in case I thought I'd give you an FYI
I went to their website again today. 9/9/22 and still no product? What gives Scotty?
Scotty’s subscribers probably bought them all 😆
Bummer! I've been meaning to get some.
@@Pantera-wu9ty They are totally worth it. Don’t give up.
I would figure SeaFoam would do the trick just as good.
i put bernies stuff in my 2014 mazda3 with gdi had 59,000 and man what a differance i thought it ran great before now its a rocket ship ! good stuff
While posting on the Subaru forum, I mentioned using this additive in my 2022 Subaru Outback Limited 2.5 i. An engineer replied that people can throw their money away on this additive if they want to, but, it won't do anything for reducing Valve Carbon, or, for improvement to the Injectors, on 2020 and later vehicles with Direct Fuel Injection.
Appreciate all the regular uploads Scotty.
I LOVE THE HAND COMPOSER EXPLANATIONS 💝🙏😅😘👍✝️
$3500 for that. That owner is lucky
Im not convinced!
Okay? More like $14k
Yeah, I'm very blessed to have found it! A few more things to fix, like the AC compressor, and it'll be good for a while!
@Brandon Keightinn They have cars on Craigslist with 300,000 plus mileage selling for more
@Brandon Keightinn yeah, these things aren't cheap. You'd be hard pressed to find a running one without rust for under $7k.
Scotty looks like he's knocked back 3 bottles of whiskey before each video. luv ya Scotty an Aussie down under who dont even own a car ... real is real mate and real you are.
Clean Lexus scotty, nice ride, I use only Sunoco gas in my Toyota, and never had problems since 2014, common sense goes a long way
Thanks Scotty your a national treasure
I wish we had a few Scottys in my area.
Wow you have 5.26 million subscribers your knocking down some serious bucks from UA-cam
Thank you Scotty i used this on my 1999 vw passat with 1.8 t with 360.000 miles I used both additives CRO & CRF worked great Runs like new
How
Much did they cost?
@@spottedhorse7 60.00 dollars
@@rogereprestit’s $300 on the link provided 😳
Sir you're a true hero and only trust you
THANK YOU FOR THIS VIDEO. I OWN A 2015 BUICK ENCORE AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS ON. HAD IT CHECKED OUT AND I WAS TOLD IT WAS THE CATALITIC CONVERTOR. I USED THE GUMOUT MULTI CLEANER TUNE UP AND BINGO HAD THE CHECK ENGINE LITE RESET AND HAS NOT COME BACK ON. HOW MANY TIMES CAN I USE A CAN OF THIS IN MY CAR TO CONTINUE IT TO RUN BETTER THAN IT EVER HAS????? THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH. LOVE YOUR VIDEOS
That car has been loved and cared for.
Worst case scenario, I'd put injectors in it. The ethanol deteriorated them from sitting for a year and a half. Never let old high mileage cars sit. They start to fall apart quicker than driving them
That Lexus IS still in great shape they took care of her
Check car care nuts YT reviewing timeless Toyotas in absolute care nut style
You are amazing. Thank you.
This is the first time I think I've ever clicked on a video that said they don't want you to know the secret. Except I clicked it because I know I can trust Scotty he's the best mechanic

New rubber hood gasket for old cars to keep water from running into your wiring. I have seen rubber strips for sale on Aliexpress that look like they would do the trick.
One of the most reliable vehicles ever made!
I put some of this in my 03 Yukon due to unusually poor gas mileage , but the mpg has improved so much in this short amount of time that I’m struggling to run down the rest of the tank
No sh7t?
At my age I have a dribbling injector too!
