i always start my truck(96 chevy silverado ) with alittle bit of gas it cranks but wont start only when i spray gas in to the carburator if i leave it more then an hour off i have to spary it what do i do ??
@@wgyu1218 Good insight, here. If they can confuse people enough by saying he’s crazy, maybe they can still keep inflating the fees and parts charges. Never imagined that there’d be a focused campaign to make someone this goodhearted, honest, and helpful look bad. We should have known that might be the REAL aim behind so many sarcastic attacks. A few beers too many, from some of the hogwash that’s been written against Scotty’s videos. Thank you for pointing it out! There’s a saying: “You must be over the target if you’re attracting hellfire.” 🙂💕
I've been watching Scotty since i got my first car at 15. I'm now 26 and i STILL watch his videos, he's helped me fix every problem i've ever had on a car. Thank you Scotty
Scott because of you I started fixing my own cars. Man I wish I knew you in person. I've disassembled a front wheel hub bearing, changed a timing belt, water pump, alternator, fixed suspension and arm bar problems. Where before I'd have to rely on a jerk or be stranded, now I'm EMPOWERED Thanks Scotty for sharing your knowledge and making me stronger 5 foot woman who never gives up You're an Icon!
what i love is that you make fixing and diagnosing cars sound and look so simple. it makes me feel more confident n secure about car problems. everyone knows the anxiety that comes with a car thats having problems.
Been wrenching for many years - Scotty is a joy to watch, but he's truly a pure journeyman and can teach many this time honored trade - thanks for all the free advise Sir!
The way he outlines problums and ways of going about fixing them is a treat. Makes me wounder why our society does not pay people like this what they need for working in a shop. I'm $900 into a starter problem and feel dumb not being able to fix it my self or fined someone like him. Good job man for all the good vids.
Finding a good mechanic who actually knows how to and bothers to diagnose problems instead of doing expensive experiments with adding or changing parts is as hard as finding a doctor who can and will diagnose and treat, not just throw pills at you.
Finally, someone who gives you real solutions to car trouble. This is two thumbs up. Best video on this subject I've seen hands down Keep doing what your doing Scotty.
That was the most straight forward way to determine why a car won't start that I have ever watched. You are entertaining and brilliant to know how to dumb it down for us shade tree mechanics!! Can't wait to try out as many of these techniques as it takes on my 2002 4Rumner that won't fire at all. Thanks!
That helped out a lot, my car was parked up hill, so I rolled it back out of my drive way ,started up after 5 tries. THANK YOU BROTHER !!! GOD BLESS YOU !!!
Hey Scotty my Hyundai Getz wont start weve replaced the starter and it worked for a day and then wouldnt start again Then we replaced the crank sensor and it started up again for a half a day and stopped again Im lost somebody please help
I was frustrated and in a bad mood after my car wouldn't start. This video made me feel more confident, but it also got me laughing too. Haven't been able to try all of this yet but I'm grateful to have found this channel.
If it wasn't for you Scotty. I would be hundreds and thousands of dollars 💰 in the hole over simple problems. Mechanics are to busy to search for the actual source and or more concerned about you coming back and spending more. I also love learning and getting my hands dirty. This might not mean much to you but YOU ARE LITERALLY THIS WOMEN'S S SAVOR!!! I had no father to be my teacher like you are. I struggle financially sense I come from a poverty family. The money you are helping me save is for a home I always wished and need. You help people save themselves and that make you a real life HERO ❤
My car froze on me on the highway. I tried re-starting it, it cranks but doesn't start. Searched online and found this video --it helped me look for the problem and fix it! Thank you, thank you so much Scotty for putting out content like this, it literally saved our day!
so I just did your tutorial, when I loosened the fuel rail bolt gasoline sprayed everywhere so my pump works. Next I checked for spark and now my car is on fire. what is the next step?
Thanks Scotty , I do find your videos helpful. In this video you say there are two things that you need to start your vehicle ( spark and fuel) most common yes but it's actually four things: fuel, spark, compression, and timing. Thanks for your dynamic videos and keep up the good work. Your knowledge is priceless.
Great video Scotty I have a 2003 Acura TL and was not starting when the engine was hot was cranking but no gas to start I found the problem to be the engine temperature sensor was acting up . The car starts fine when the engine was cold ,no check engine ,after I changed the sensor the car works much better big difference in acceleration. Have a great day Scotty .
My 2004 Toyota Highlander wouldn’t start yesterday, but it was cranking over GREAT. I started watching videos, checked the EFI relay, tried starting fluid, etc. It turns out I was using a duplicate key that didn’t have a chip in it ! I grabbed my wife’s CHIPPED KEY, and it started like a CHAMP !!! WHEW !!!!
Thank you Scotty, I drive a very old van so it wasn’t as easy for me as it may have been with a Toyota but the video put a lot of smiles on my face and I’m content just knowing it’ll be fixed soon regaurdless of my inability to be the one fixing it
This is what my SUV is doing. It has a hard time starting and when it does it barely does and I give it gas and it's good until I let it sit for a bit like over night. :( I wish I knew more about vehicles. My son and I love your videos. I'm so glad I found this one. I guess it's off to see the mechanic.
Scotty, Thank you for all of the Great Service you offer all of us Non Mechanical to Semi Mechanical car owners out here. for your Clear and Concise Mechanical Advice! J Q Public
I was plagued with this issue on a 2007 Ford Expedition. It was so intermittent no one, not even the Ford dealer could figure it out after I let them have it for months at a time. Finally had enough and ditched it and put myself into a RAM. I love it! Great videos btw, Scotty!
+cfcreative1 Because most of the symptoms he mentioned are the most common but not always the case. There are other things that could happen to cause a crank no start situation. For example: Some German cars with big engines will not start simply because of a low CCA battery output or failing starter motor. Or most the newer cars have immobilizer that could be at fault. First thing you should do is get a reader or have someone pull the DTCs with a code reader be it OBD2, Vagcom, etc...
BlackHack911 I didn't say "bad starter" now did I? Please read. I'm talking about low battery amps to starter or starter solenoid. If you know anything about cars with big engines this is definitely a factor. And yes even a bad starter would crank an engine just too slow to produce enough combustion. Even if you have spark and fuel if there isn't enough combustion it still wont start.
I was having the same issue with 2009 Nissan Rogue SL After i got a call from my wife saying her car wouldn't start ok so i checked it and it had a good Battery it wanted to start but wouldn't....everything on the car was working....tried jump starting it anyway still nothing i heard it all timing chain...starter...alternator and to me none of that made sense so i took off the wheel and when to work and yes indeed after taking off the belt my wife's car did start up. So i checked the ac pulley and it would not move so i took off the clutch and the bearings to the pulley fell out. The compressor did not lock up the pulley did so it prevented the belt from turning. After replacing clutch and pulley as well as the coil on the compressor everything is back working normally i hope this do help someone because it had me lost for words. Scotty you rock keep up the great work love your videos.
What of a Toyota Carina AT192 which has a hard start especially when engine is hot, it is has a hard start on the initial ignition and starts well on the second try
This video jus saved my life....street sweeper day and a dead F-150 I need positive energy....I have 2 hours to figure it out and this video just saved me a lot of time THANX SCOTTIE 😍😍😘😘
94 celica downunder (AUS) cranked but would not fire. You are a legend Scotty got dissy from wrecker and fixed. They way you explain things give you confidence to do it straight to the point. thank you so much
This is the kind of information we wish was in owner's manuals. Important stuff. I had a no start because there was a neutral safety switch (at least that's what I think it was) that was on the transmission. I had moved it out of position (and it was a bit loose anyway) when I was connecting a back up light switch connection that kept falling off. Good think that this problem showed up about that time, or I wouldn't have known what to do. The thing was loose and could have changed position at any time. I had to rotate it to where it worked and then had to tighten it in that position. Also, don't forget to check spark plug gap. If it's got worn plugs they might not spark. That happened to me and a shop charged me $1500.00 and still didn't fix the problem. Turned out to be worn plugs. When you get older "just a few years ago" can turn into about a decade, so beware of that also.
Hey It’s called basic 101 mechanics. Scottys terrific. Most of the so called new mechanics ignore the basics. They want to pull out and hookup the computer.
Great info! That helped a lot understanding basic issues...unfortunately hard to do at an intersection when your car dies(especially if you do not work on vehicles)
Scotty- my car randomly starts perfect but then started cranking cranking before starting. Changed Spark plugs, coil packs and fuel injectors, fuel pump (which has the filter and regulator in the fuel pump), air filter and oil change and oil filter. After changing all that last night it started up beautifully and this morning started beautifully. 3 hours later its cranking and cranking before starting. 2016 Dodge Journey SXT 65k miles
Thank you very much for your videos. I have a Chrysler town and country 2008 that doesn't start all the time, especially in the cool weather . When I leave it for sometime it starts and I drive normally. The battery is still good. Could you mind telling me what's wrong ? I often disconnected the battery and join the two ends for about 10min and connect again and it starts. Thank you.
Hi Scotty on my way to my sons house to try to help him get his 2008 Nissan Sentra to start Ben 10 months we’re going to use starting fluid never thought of taking a sensor out if this thing works I’ll let you know thanks very much for your help I hate working on cars I’m glad you do
I wont even lie, I was trying to use this video as a source for a meme. and I started watching the video till the end. This dude is killing it on youtube WTAF How have I not seen this channel before LOL
Hey Scotty, I love your videos. I have a problem with my 2003 vw jetta Gl, automatic with a 2.0 engine. Sometimes I will get a no crank no start. I will turn the Ignition and the dash lights and everything works, but when I turn the key to start position the car doesn't crank, click, anything. Then after turning the ignition all the way off and trying to start the car a few times It starts up fine. Another symptom to my problem is sometimes a few minuets after it starts it will stall out. Then after turning the key a few times it starts fine and I can continue driving all day without problems. I am thinking maybe an ignition switch, but can a ignition switch cause the car to randomly stall, then when I start it again be fine? I know your time is valuable and I appreciate any advice you give me. Thank you very much

Pickup will not start (but cranks) in cold weather unless jumped. Has new battery. Warmer weather starts fine.
How can anyone give this Scotty thumbs down? He is funny, pleasant, knowledgeable and quick . There is absolutely nothing to criticize.
I guess he might ruin those thumbs down guys' career. LOL! He is an honored technician!

I have a Chrysler town and country 2008 that doesn't start all the time, especially in the cool weather .
When I leave it for sometime it starts and I drive normally.
The battery is still good.
Could you mind telling me what's wrong ? I often disconnected the battery and join the two ends for about 10min and connect again and it starts.
Thank you.
Hi Scotty on my way to my sons house to try to help him get his 2008 Nissan Sentra to start Ben 10 months we’re going to use starting fluid never thought of taking a sensor out if this thing works I’ll let you know thanks very much for your help I hate working on cars I’m glad you do
This guy is too cool to handle

U helped me alot
bought a new starter, distributor, and yet it crank but no spark. Do you think it might be the ignition switch being bad? it's a 1993 toyota corolla
+Kong Xiong that or a bad ignition control module
Kong Xiong that or the bearings on your muffler

I wont even lie, I was trying to use this video as a source for a meme.
and I started watching the video till the end. This dude is killing it on youtube WTAF How have I not seen this channel before LOL
Look up Posij's song "A Car That Cranks", he kinda had a similar idea
When he sprayed that damn spray 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 at 1:42
How is your car now miss?
Note:
Check for corrosion at the wiring harness before you replace the fuel pump.
Does a bad wiring harness keep you from getting fuel though?
@@mauriciodominguez6070 if you don’t have a reliable connection to get power to the fuel pump, then yes
Haha nice work man

Hey Scotty, I love your videos. I have a problem with my 2003 vw jetta Gl, automatic with a 2.0 engine. Sometimes I will get a no crank no start. I will turn the Ignition and the dash lights and everything works, but when I turn the key to start position the car doesn't crank, click, anything. Then after turning the ignition all the way off and trying to start the car a few times It starts up fine. Another symptom to my problem is sometimes a few minuets after it starts it will stall out. Then after turning the key a few times it starts fine and I can continue driving all day without problems. I am thinking maybe an ignition switch, but can a ignition switch cause the car to randomly stall, then when I start it again be fine? I know your time is valuable and I appreciate any advice you give me. Thank you very much
often a bad ignition switch, I'd start there and pray it's not a computer failure that those are known for
Thanks for the reply! Hope you have a nice day Scotty
THANK YOU, MAN! Waiting for a tow truck for my old Cavalier. Now I have an idea of what to discuss with my mechanic.
