Hey Scotty. Do you know exactly where the radiator cap is for a 2004 Oldsmobile Alero 3.4L engine?
We need you thoughts regarding BI Turbo engine of ford or other brands, do you recommend it? why and why? Thanks!
You said last forever, then you said, last as long as possible.
Scotty Kilmer oh yeah, tell me about it. I have a 2004 dodge dakota and I was driving down the road going to visit my family which live like 30 minutes away and when I got there I noticed it wasn't running right so I opened the hood and sure enough my coolant hose was all swollen and coolant had leaked everywhere. I opened the engine cap and did notice a lot of smoke and little condensation building on the cap. Right away I knew I blew my head gasket, I just wish I knew that the thermostat was the problem. I was just starting to work on my own cars at the time so I had little experience. Week after sure enough my friend told me the thermostat was the problem. The thing was fine the day before and the day after I guess it gave up. Also do you know how to fix the temperature gauge on a truck like that, I barely drive it now. Thanks for the advice without it I don't think I would have known that there's Head Gasket Sealers.
Scotty Kilmer can u use that on the belts to🤔that spray u have
My father was a mechanic. He passed and I quickly realized...how lucky I was not only to have an amazing father but how lucky I was I never worried about being taken advantage of by some mechanics or how I never worried about the upkeep of our cars in general. All of it... the struggle is real. Its hard to find a honest good mechanic that is truly trying to help fix your car and keep you safe. 40 Years later I finally met a good man that is very helpful and doesn't mind teaching me. But ....we are always learning right.
I learned about cars from a high school summer class. Self taught myself from there. That was 51 yrs ago but I’m still doing most repast home. Saved me a lot of $$ over the years and provided me confidence. Take a class!
Aa
I am a father of 5 kids. My older Son is 34. My youngest daughter is 7. I do a lot of myself to repair. And I want to thank you gentleman for your warm words to your Father. ❤
I’ve done so much to my car because of Scotty Kilmer’s teachers. I love it I can relate.
Been saying wish my grandpa had a mechanic,but we chopped alot of cotton back in the day, have to work a little hard on this old cars
I swear to God, two more month of watching this guy’s videos, I’m going to open my own car service shop. Lol!
I purposely break my car just so I can visit his shop.
Please dont
You better vilivet
Ahhhhhh
Same!!!!
1 change thermostat every 4-5 yrs 2 check radiator cap, change 4-5 yrs 3 spray radiator with rubber rejuvenator AT 205 Reseal 4 clean radiator & condenser fins 5 make sure both fans run (set A/C to max & watch) 6 change coolant @ recommended interval) 7 check radiator for consistent heat with heat gun - replace if modern radiator and doesn't flush well ☺
Spay radiator with rubber rejuvenator at 205 reseal
Matt Kind he forgot to mention the temperature coolant sensor.
Matt Kind Thank you mister.
Not the radiator the radiator hoses....
Buy POS 1)Change nothing
What I like about you, Scotty, is that you are always honest and I appreciate that!
I wish I could find a mechanic like Scotty. U r the best Scotty!!
@Junior I wish he would stop talking.
@@roderickmacpherson6737 There's a mute button on the lower left part of the screen. If you watch Scotty's vids long enough you could probably tell what he's saying by the way he waves his arms.
You can, go to Austin, TX and ask about Gary Garrison!!
I don't think they make them like that any more. I'm with you.
And it doesn’t hurt that he’s cute, too
As usual, Scotty is spot on. Scotty's videos should be mandatory for every high school student.
I feel that brother They should also be mandatory for every first time car owner
@@MrThesmacka They should be taught at year 6; That is life
@chavale2 well of course as a father this is what we do we pass that down what I'm saying when I say mandatory i mean if you do not have at least the basic knowledge of this you shouldn't have keys to a vehicle
It is the Gold idea!
“Suddenly I’m into Golfing” image. Lmao Scotty you are the best at explaining all this while making it fun and entertaining. Best channel out there!
I'll be listening to his serious stuff, but then see his funny images up too and just have to start laughing! They're perfect and soooooo creative!
That was a great one!
Dear Scotty you saved my behind the again I had taken my vehicle to the mechanic because I had a radiator leak after I took it to the mechanic to get a fuel line replaced 7 Days Later it started leaking radiator fluid. The man said it was my water pump while I have a 2000 Intrepid. The water pump is with the timing chain. And I have been pumping money into this car because I love this car come to find out all I had was a crack in the upper part of the radiator by the hose I almostjunked my car something told me to Trace the leak lo and behold I found it. This man try to screw me over $1,235. I even told him I have some knowledge about cars I just don't have the tools or the time. Bless you Scotty you keep up the good work🤜🤛
There was nothing wrong with the water pump
Great advice! I realize just how fortunate I have been as the the last 3 cars I've owned I put over 200k miles on each, never changed a thermostat and didn't have a problem. Time to up my preventative maintenance routine as it is much better to spend a few bucks to prevent being stuck alongside the road for something so inexpensive.
Preventive maintenance is key it's how a car or truck will keep you happy...it makes me cringe watching people just keep beating on a vehicle And not checking fluids and keeping up on simple maintenance .... A friends truck started making a ticking noise and I asked how long has it been since she changed oil and had no idea so I checked it and it had nothing reading on dipstick I instantly filled it up with oil and lucky for her noise went away but if I didn't check it that day truck had probably 50 miles before it expired got sooooo lucky
I haven't changed my coolant for 15 years, no worries though, the car hasn't started in 10 years
Norman Bates 🤣🤣🤣
U and every American
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
😂😂😂😂😂
Volkswagen owner?
Scotty actually makes auto mechanics interesting. Now I will be able to sit here long enough and actually learn something... THANKS MAN!!!
Another tip for modern cars. Use distilled water or 50/50 pre-diluted mix when refilling. Using tap water with concentrate will shorten the lifespan of the coolant, and if left unmaintained for an extended amount of time, it'll start etching the aluminum inside of the engine. Eventually clogging the radiator, and eating away the surfaces near the head gasket.
Use Pre Mix as its far safer and mixed properly in a clean facility.
I agree and it should be changed regularly because the pH drops with time and the coolant becomes extremely acidic. Bad for the cooling system and the engine. @@patricktomaszewski2063
So much mechanic wisdom. Saving engines one home at a time. You rock
This is why I always use OE Toyota thermostats in my Land Cruiser. They're designed to fail in the open position if they ever do fail. I had one fail on me back in the late 90s, and my engine never warmed up.
Wow by far my favorite mechanic on KZhead. Thanks! Love all the creativity put into the video, keeps me hooked.
You're a legend Scotty. I know more than my own qualified motor mechanic after watching your videos over the years. You're amazing.
Scotty I love your show and being a guy that has to fix a lot of things myself I enjoy your perspective and your dry sense of humor it's awesome
Scott, you are my automobile guru! Amazing knowledge that is applied!
I always find Scotty's videos very useful and sincere. Thanks and keep it up Scotty!
Great advice @5:35 for cooling fans. I had many vehicles with belt drive, instead of electronic drive. Both Camry fans went out at 200,000 miles. Replaced with new fans.
Excellent video, Scotty. Great tips for those who don't realize maintenance is soooo important!
Best advice. Preventive maintenance.
100% agree with the OE Thermostat replacement. I had a Honda where the thermostat is in a plastic housing. The aftermarket plastic cracked and was running cold in the winter.
THANK YOU.... A couple of your videos have saved me a few grand by doing my own work !! 👍 Love your channel.
Just what I was looking for, I appreciate your links to the tools and stuff you use. Thank you Scotty!!!
Also if you're the one changing your own coolant, use distilled water if not using a pre-mix. Crap from tap or well water could very well be one of those things that accelerates corrosion and build-up inside the cooling system passages or alters the chemistry enough to shorten the expected coolant lifespan. It's not too expensive in the scheme of things, and it's a tiny bit of extra insurance.
Yes! Scotty should have mentioned that
My favorite phrase "when I was a young mechanic ",love you uncle Scotty
2:30 as a german mechanic i agree here with Scotty ! our cars have become to complicatet and reliability decrease with every new gimmick they put in! . After 20 years of AUDI i switched to a good old V6 na design from Toyota/Lexus with high km on it but hey that engines oil is still shiny after 5000km ! In a new TFSI engine from AUDI/VW your oil gets dirty after a few hundred km !
kubanskiloewe Which is the power output per liter difference between those engines? :)
I have 2007 octavia vrs tfsi, over 310,000 km oil still stays clean for a long time. Only mobil 1 from new. Recently removed sump just to check oil pickup and everything was very clean, very impressed. I thought I would hate it, very complex, some stuff is stupid plastic or low quality bolts (new radiator held in with cable ties!) but overall its been good to me.
@@nothanks3462 most TFSI have huge problems with oil consumption because the oil rings went dirty from carbon deposits due to DI . More than that many run bad at idel and some even dont pass the 2 year state emission check in europe. good to hear some runs fine but there is also a huge difference in driving with speedlimits and here in germany where all idiots drive like crazy on autobahn. TFSI engines have a turbo+a little supercharger (compressor) .....2 expensive parts beside all the other little things to keep the powertrain running. Not my taste.
Yeah.. I am from India.. Is it true the cooling system in VW /skoda cars are not up-to the mark? I have a Mk I Octavia, I recently changed its thermost valve.
@@nothanks3462 j
Thanks Scotty, for all you do. I'd drive a thousand miles, to have you service my car.
ROADTRIP!!!! Hahaa
Or to tell you how effed you are with the car you may have😉😕🤪
Damn right Scotty, I've had the thermostat valve replaced in my VW exactly how you've described
Really good info Scotty! I’m replacing the thermostat in my old Land Cruiser today. The hardest part of it was that I broke one of the bolts that hold the two pieces of the thermostat together. I was able to get it out by tapping on it with a brass hammer, and then used a Vise-Grip pliers to carefully remove it. Now I have to reconnect the hoses, fill with distilled water and coolant, check for leaks, etc. Your videos are great!
Thanks for everything Scotty! Peace, Jim
Great video, Scotty. Thank you for sharing your passion.
I love your help so much. Thank you, Scotty!
Scotty you’re my boy.thanks for the all your knowledge sir
Scotty, I love ya man. The image you put up for golfing. That's just classic. Hahaha made my afternoon
Great advice. I buy my radiator cap and thermostat @ the Dealer. It cost more but so does my engine.
Radiator cap and thermostat at Toyota dealer $70 AUD in Australia
Thanks a lot Mr. Scott, you're an icon.
This video was very helpful. Thank you Scotty!!! 🙌
Another great lesson from the "Master!"
Wow! Scotty, The insight gleaned from this video is tremendous! Thank you for all that you do for this community, you've created! Hats off to you!
It’s a good idea to also replace the rubber radiator mounting “grommets” when you replace the cap. In high ozone areas (cities and metropolitan areas), the rubber hardens and shrinks over time. This allows the radiator to rattle on its mounts and the plastic top part to break free of the metal core - allowing fluid to leak out. Just change the rubber mounting grommets. They are cheap and easy to replace.
Right on, good call.
Thank you body. I will do it.
I swear In love watching your videos. Ur a great teacher
Always happy to listen to his advise. I do not have the greatest knowledge, and here I experience a strait fwd person. THANK YOU!!!
Loved How he used a pic of a mugen radiator cap as an example lol! This guy is awesome
Wish I had known you when I was a young teen... or live near you, the things I would learn from you....
You give the best advice!! Awesome, I had that T-stat issue once too, and got ripped off, of course...years ago. Love you like a brother :) and happy New Year!
Thank you, my friend. You are really gifted at what you do.
I can relate to your Celica as I owned 2,the 77 GT and 80' fastbacks. My current everyday is 94' 300ZX na manual,have had it 15 years. Its good to have a car without hundreds of more feet of wiring and un-needed sensors and electrical gizmos,gadgets and whizz bang options.
I hear that, my 1982 Jeep CJ-7 is so simple I can do about 95% of the work I need to get done on it.
Scotty your the best thing on you tube. I have gained so much knowledge from you. Thanks bud.
He really knows what he is talking about... all through actual experience.
WOOW Grandpapa you are taking me back when i used to work in my mother ghana -suhum west africa . Thank you very much for your good job.
Funny, entertaining and informative! great job Scotty!!
Thermostat - Make sure you buy OEM. Radiator - Make sure you don't buy OEM.
Lmao
Scotty should make a video on which parts to buy oem, and which parts to buy after market.
@@davidjacobs8558 - He's done some videos where he talks about that sort of thing.
You are free to buy an $800 radiator from a dealership but they are just aluminum tubes encased in a plastic housing.
@@omartinoco9930 I totally agree with Scotty, some critical parts you want OEM. Other parts you save a ton buying third party. When I replaced a bumper cover on my Corolla the dealership wanted over $300 for it. Bought one online from a company that makes them in Michigan for $60 and it fit fine.
Always has good advice he's definitely worth watching and listening to thanks Scotty
I love watching Scotty.. i have been for a long while . i watch his videos even when i don’t have auto issues.
For thermostats it's also a good idea to drill a hole through the outer ring, won't dramatically alter warming up, but can keep your engine from going boom if it gets stuck shut
@ You know there are thermostats designed with a pin hole to allow some flow in the event of the unit seizing shut, right? Nah, I guess I'll just pull all the aftermarket and modified parts and replace them with the oem plastic junk and parts that are documented as failure prone, because, as you implied, the manufacturers know best
I used to do this with every thermostat, on the ones that didn't already come with a bypass/bleed hole. But recently I've found that this increases the length of time it takes the engine to warm up. That doesn't bother me, but the engine computer actually times the warm-up interval and if it takes to long, it will throw a code. Happened to me just last week and a new "undrilled" thermostat fixed it. For emission reasons, manufacturers want the engines to heat up quickly.
I just replaced the thermostat on my Toyota V6 a few months ago with the Toyota branded part. It was challenging but I got it done. Patiently burped all the air out of the system so easily with one of those coolant flush kits on Amazon. Temp gauge is reading perfectly again, no fluctuations.
Thank you Mr. Scotty for sharing your knowledge. I learned a lot from you.
Great advice. There are many parts that I will only use OEM parts on. A trick I use is to use heavy duty silicone spray which is actually light and clear. I spray it on radiators, the front of my motorcycle, and car bumper. Bugs can then be washed off easily.
Plain cooking Pam in spray can also works , bugs wash off easier. ( love them June bugs )
I used to change out my thermostats. I remember having to check to see if they would open and close properly before installing them by putting them in a pot of water over the stove.
Scotty is fun & very informative. Perfect.
Thanks for the info. Forgot I need to check both my fans make sure they work
Nobody pops up the hood so many times in a week, on their Toyota Celica.....only Scotty does🤣🤣🤣 twice a day. And the BMW and Mercedes-Benz owners🤣🤣🤣. Great video Scotty. Watch til you here in Norway🇧🇻
Worth pointing out.. most thermostats work using a heat-spring.. if your car has recently overheated, or seen an unusually frigid winter outdoors, anything giving it an especially drastic temperature differential, that heat spring can lose its tempering or crack. Usually it still works but not 'well'. It can overwork the cooling system, and put it on a fast track to another failure. So if you park outside in a frozen wasteland, replace it every spring. And if you overheat from a leaking hose or something, its a good idea to change the thermostat at the same time, even though it wasn't at fault. Also if you live where its warm year round, consider just removing the thermostat.
Thank you, Friend. Very important.
You've always got great info👍Thanks for the help
Love this guy! He's straight to the point and informs very well. Everybody else babbles on😉

Scotty--I make a practice of turning on the heater at least once a week, even in the summer, to circulate the coolant that's stashed in the heater circuit. I recently lost the plastic radiator on my 2001 Lexus IS300, but have not otherwise had any heating/cooling incidents in the 96,000 miles I have on the car. Ralph L. Seifer, Long Beach, California.

I may have missed it, but how often do you spray the car's rubber hoses with AT-205 reseal- to keep them lasting longer? Great tips Scotty! Keep em' coming!!
Stupid this, stupid that, stupid design, had me in stitches. Love ya work Scotty !!!!!
Great video as usual, as someone who purchased 15+ year old Grand Marquis and Crown Victoria's. The 1st thing I do is bring it to my mechanic and have the following performed: Change Oil Change Upper/Lower Hoses Change Thermostat Flush and Fill Radiator Costs about $400-450 in Atlanta but well worth it.
Awesome info..thanks for taking the time to make this!!!
You can do so much stuff to take care of your car by just watching Scotty's videos than consulting your dealer .

My cars cooling system is not as cool as Scotty
:D
He's a cool ole grandpa
But you're frosty
Yup - he's a cool dude 👌
And his thermostat is working fine 👌
Love your videos! Every shade tree fair weather do it yourself mechanic should watch youur videos!
Great tips and suggestions Scotty. You rock!
OK ... I’m hooked on your videos, very good useful modern information mixed with old school common sense 👍
Thermostats used to be mounted on top of the engine and were easily replaceable. Nowadays the manufacturers are looking out for the dealerships instead of the car buyer so they mount thermostats in hard to get at spots. Replacing a thermostat used to be a 10 minute job. Now it can take hours.
Scotty forgot to mention changing the coolant on the blinker too. Never use cheap blinker coolant.
Thank you Sir I learned so much from you.
Good tips, I know from experience about the cooling fan not working. I started overheating because my cooling fan wasn't working.
Scotty you forgot to mention that you should use distilled water when you change your antifreeze.
Not needed. My family has used straight well water for decades without issue.
Yup- local water can be high in minerals- probably not a big problem unless you live in a state that allows oil fracking. Use distilled in your car battery too.
Most premixed antifreeze is about the same as buying it undiluted. I get that more for the convenience of bot having to measure and dilute. I do usually flush the system with some plain distilled water.
In the islands, we remove the thermostat. The only draw back is that it takes a while to warm/heat up which is fine. We also convert out radiator to a brass and copper tank. And for flushing, we do LavRamon every 4 years! I know people who haven't changed radiators or water pump in 25 years.
I remove mine. Trinidad...

Love watching this guy Scotty you the man
Very informing and don't over explain I've turned wrenches since I was old enough to turn one my pap went to Ford motor school in the 70s ASE motor school taught me ups and downs but wow you teach the same
I'll stick with the fail-safe thermostats. Had one fail just recently, they fail in the open position. Heater didn't work so good, engine was fine, just drove it gently for a couple of days until I could change the stat during the weekend.
Keep educating
Can you give me any advice on a 2008 Prius that's getting a code P1121. Thanks
Great important info. TY Scotty Dude !!
