Hey Scotty Kilmer i have a 1996 Dodge Stratus ES V6 2.5L, The car startes then dies after 4 seconds also i have try to step the gas pedal still dies after 4 seconds.
I have replace the starter, fuel pump assembly, fuel filter, fuel injector, spark plug, spark plug wire, air intake/ charge temperature sensor, idle air control (IAC) valve, manifold pressure (MAP) sensor, And but still having issues.
So what could be the issue?
I need help.
Watching your video on this Lexus. How does real leather tear? I know there are grades of leather but car makers never ever reveal the grade. Like bonded leather is pure crap. So Lexus uses pure crap leather?
So the Lexus gs 400 2000 is no good is that what you saying
this car( lexus) is as competent as consensus science backed by private funding :D
dark matter/global warming etc..
@@markabendan4790 Scotty won't help you with any Chrysler product. As an actual technician I would say it sounds like a security system issue. Did you by chance get a new key cut for the ignition or disconnect the ECM? I'd say go that route.
Imagine being the customer who took their car in for service, and several hours later they saw their car featured in a video titled "Here's How Stupid People Modify A Car". LOL
I was just thinking that lol
dont mod your car if you cant service it yourself pls..

Jump on his car to get his attention bruh
Ask him about part out or sale.

Donald I'm 16 and I'd never get that thing in the first place
im 16 and although I like the engine tone with no cats I wouldnt turn any car into this rough of a shape, I maintain my car well :P.
Instead of having all these extras installed he doesn't even care about a ripped leather seat..? Dang that guy lost his mind, well butt.
@The Catmother He did all those mods and the car has no power, what a waste
Dog Chood car. Oh, the stench! Call the CDC.
Don’t you think the engine lost power because of how old and tired it is? I mean I never thought a altered exhaust system or cats removed would take away more than half power
Normally when I increase exhaust flow I gained power...
@@multiblade04 If the computer doesn't have an O2 sensor, it can't regulate the fuel:air ratio properly.
When your "cold air" intake sits in the hottest part of the engine bay... 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
If I'm not mistaken that's an srt ecu and those were one of the best intakes for Lexus gs400s
UZS DC really? Wow. How many other options were there? lol (joke). But I figured heat soak in there from that thicc ole V8 would kill power after 30mins or so.
@@Meekmillan if you leave the factory snorkel from the front of the hood then cold air should come in with ease to that intake, the 1uz fe vvti motors have a lot of heat soak around the sides where the manifolds are and Toyota did a good job of preventing heat soak to the front
@@UzsDc1UZ I don’t think it’s an SRT, doesn’t quite look like the SRT I have on my 400. Also missing the aluminum box that helps isolate it from the heat. Also doesn’t sound like a SRT. The SRT sounds sick, kinda like a turbo spooling.
@@pigbelly100 honestly yeah lmao I don't know why I said that a while back. The srt intake looks better constructed like the actual piping is way cleaner and more aluminum looking.
I'm not going to lie. That car sounds great lol
And it would pass in jersey
Up just heard him say not cats. Guess not :( unless you have 100 for a sticker from a gulf gas station lol
Any car can be loud if you take out the cat. Make it straight pipe. It's loud but in Canada if your car is too loud you will get a ticket.

“This car has too many miles.” Obviously, Scotty has not seen the million mile Lexus.
Exactly. 2nd gen Lexus cars are one of the best built car available. Buy a proper used one and drive with confidence.. miles on it doesn't matter. They are built to last.
@@explorehunter yes indeed 👍👍

How come you put a supercharger and trd emblem on it? Just curious
I caught that Friday reference lol
It always amazes me that people will spend money on stupid modifications but not spend money on preventative maintance.
Render Lizswith it amazes me more people are so quick to judge another person without knowing them I done all preventative maintenance thus why Scotty is suprised it’s really no other codes besides cats etc , I can list them but I’ll rather not the car runs damn good

I just lost it when he said junkyard and showed the Chevy dealer. Lol Scotty I'm glad you've never changed over the years.
Hey Scotty my 2000 Lexus LS400 has 380xxx miles and it's my daily driver. Runs and drives beautifully because I've kept it stock with only OEM parts!
Plot twist: the owner kept all of the take off parts, and puts them back on right before inspection, then put all the mods back as soon as he leaves the inspection station.
Then it would have an inspection sticker from when it was inspected, which it doesn't. He just got lucky and was never pulled over and the officer notice the lack of it.
The amount of time and effort that would take would be completely prohibitive on a car like that 😂
millions of people are doing that in europe..like cops are checking for the missing parts;p..well, maybe just for being too loud on the streets you can get in trouble, n get checked, but other than that - no probs in most cases..
That’s more of a hot air intake! Sucking all the hot air from inside the engine bay!
@@j_freed in which case it's sucking the hot air that's just passed through the radiator
Yeah I bought a 240sx recently and it had one just like that. All I could think was ahhh a hot air intake
@@j_freed
it must be sealed from the hot engine bay with outside (cooler) air being drawn in, to work.
do you even youtube bro?
Still gain hp
Technically it’s not a cold air intake unless it goes outside the engine bay that’s just a regular intake with a thinner air filter and smoother hose
Scotty sounds like he has a few drinks each time he does a video 👍🏻

Facts
Besides scotty beina real respected mechanic who just wants people to be safe, im glad he’s this funny lmao. He be doin the MOST for this channel lol
Lol at this point scotty is just complaining as an old person 🤣🤣
He basically always saying keep everything stock
@Lucas Van Hamburg depends on where the bottleneck is and how much colder the intake air is. On average a good cold air can show about 5 to 10 hp but combined with other mods it can be more.
JSenpai242 it definitely breathe more better but I put the stock back on and I miss that air I syke noise it breathe so much better with the intake on
Buzz Lightyear lol my Lexi runs great you should come see her do some donuts

geeze, poorly modified is an understatement! modifications are supposed to improve performance, not degrade performance😔
No, they aren’t. A modification would be anything to change the car, a modification. Even tinting the lights are a “mod”
@@jackkw99 so, you're saying that there's no difference between good "mods" and bad ones? I've always modified to improve, not degrade. improvement is and always should be the goal.
PANTYEATR1 “should” be the goal, but unfortunately that doesn’t work for others.
The air intake definitely made a difference when moving at higher speeds
@@jackkw99 In this case, we're taliking about PERFORMANCE modifications, NOT about cosmetic modifications. Please try to keep up ;>)
Scotty this is why I work for a dealership. For me it's really easy I tell the customer I can return your car back to stock and then diagnosing from there. I work on Subaru so I get a lot of hotrods. But I'm always willing to work with every customer to try to figure out the problem.
Scotty, being a "mechanic for over 52 years", you should know Toyota UZ series engines are non interference. Those engines have been in the U.S. since 1990.
I'll never understand the idiotic mentality of the ricer crowd. Waste a lot of money on awful cosmetic mods. ANY cosmetic mod is terrible. Cars look best stock.
The vvtis were interference, like this one
Shamed by Scotti! Glad it's not my car.
135hp 🤣🤣🤣 Sick Mods my man!!!
Damn those cars look great without all the ricer mods. This style GS made me want a lexus since I was a kid.
Recently bought one of these, a 1998. Drives perfect, and it pretty much keeps up with the newer GS 430.
Scotty logic: Check engine light is on, ABS is broken, traction control is broken, transmission is going out, AC is warm, seats are falling apart => This car is very well built.
Seems legit.
arjunyg transmission running strong can’t lie
Good honest roast of some young guys car😄
Looks like Scotty's hangin' with the Street Boys....lol!!!
Just say black people
bethany You- no.
With the rosary on the mirror I can almost guarantee it’s a Latinos car lol
Your point?
Lmaoo actually it’s mines bro it came like that I will bf now selling it
Nah that's a black guys car
I only dream in finding a mechanic as thorough as you.
This thing only puts out 130 horses 😂😂😂 wild
That's because the ECM is running in a fail safe mode. All the sensors are broken or not working, so the ECM is forced to continuously dump fuel into the engine making it run super rich.
Ahh, I remember being 16 and having my first car too lol.
I wish i had money to modify a car at 16, i cant even a decent looking car for under $5k. A year ago I saw every car i could ever want for $3k, but now that i have a job they’re nowhere to be found
That like putting a mustache on the Mona Lisa.
5:08 sec you can see the OEM mass air flow sensor
I am not trying to be critical but you talk about how the car has been on a dyno and lost a huge amount of horsepower then why don’t you show it? It would be really fun to se how these cars perform on a dyno. Then you seem to like to state things that aren’t true. You talked about an car alarm when it was a ballast for the led headlights.
I may be developing a case of KVAS-Kilmer Video Addiction Syndrome. Hell, I even watch your videos that have absolutely zero to do with my own cars let alone what I would consider doing to them. Let's just say your notifications are deadly for my evening and weekend productivity. Keep up the good work! 👍🏼
I agree, it's better to leave it stock.
You must be crazy??
Why would you leave a car stock when you can have plenty of fun roasting others with a sleeper.
Stock sucks!!
And on this video Scotty is only half right because moding a car is where all the money on cars is made in 2020. Lol
The fastest cars are built not bought. Lol
But this lexus needs a lot of help though to get it built right though.
@@extremedrivr Stock lasts longer, is more efficient, more practical.
@@hedgehogthesonic3181
No sir!!
Stock does not last longer because the automanufacturers don't want you to have the best car.
My current car for example will last longer than the auto company say's it will because I am using motor oil that is superior to what it came with from the factory. Little details like that go along way to making a car last a very long time.
The aftermarket industry knows more than the OEM does so long as the parts are not 🇨🇳 made.
We don't emissions in my state and my 89 Supra doesn't have cats anymore either, that and a manual boost controller is the only mods done to it and it starts and runs like a top too.
That car is gonna be roasted 30 seconds in I just know it
I don't know what it's like in the states, but here in New Zealand if a car is first registered before 2010 you don't need a catalytic converter so long as it doesn't have a check engine light and it doesn't make too much noise.
On the flip side: Doing a catback system isn't all that bad, it won't throw fault codes, it's a replacement which is much better.
You know the guy didn't do a good job covering the GS400 badge when you can see the badge markings under the TRD mark
A Great car for a pimp in LA or Vegas.
With black on black and no AC, it would be a very sweaty pimp.
An almost homeless pimp
A broke pimp
Ummm nooo, this is 2020, there is no longer any such thing as "pimps"
I love where I live. No inspection. Also, Scotty said the car will never run right with all of these mods. Does he not know tunes can correct all of that? 😂😂
Yup and computer reprograms
What state?
can't tune without o2 sensors
I want to know what the owner said when he came to pick up the car and you broke the news to him! 🤣
I think it sounds and looks good for a weekend toy and nothing else 😂
So I found a 2000 Lexus GS 400. It has 140,000 miles incredibly clean without any modifications. Is it worth it or should I pass on that because it’s only had one owner like I said it’s incredibly clean mechanically it’s great. Should I pass and go for a different Lexus
When ricers meet scotty , ahhhhh just preparing pop corns 🤩

People say i look like sid. They also say i look like rex orange country
Ghettos person's car lol I see these a lot in LA.
I like to call us a poor man's race car....only looks fast 😉
I would replace the cats, O2 sensors, and a stock airbox w/ MA and I betcha it run great with more power and better gas mileage.
This sort of thing is common in Southern California when young dudes get their hands on a car I've been seeing it for 10 years+ they're destroying all my favorite Japanese cars and then try to resell it at a stupid price. It really makes my heart sink and also insults me when they tell my why they think it's worth that much.
It's owners like this that keeps the aftermarket in business.
But... at what cost.... this one, put it where it belongs, in the scrap yard
And its owners like you that blindly follow the auto manufacturers because you think they built you a good car to begin with. Lol
I agree that this car is an incomplete project which needs the right owner to complete the build.
That flat black paint is not everyones taste, but I see a lot of cars and trucks painted that way which look very good.
This Lexus has lots potential. Just needs the right owner to finish it.
Lol, my honda fit makes that much power
LazerLord10 my car actually dynoed made 255 wheel horsepower keep in mind I’m knocking on 250,000
@@user-gb1ne5jj8v no way Scotty actually dyno’ed this car
@@kylesmith7755 he didn’t lol my car gets down
@@user-gb1ne5jj8v yeah I don’t doubt it. Even with the stupid mods it’s ridiculous to think it dropped from 300 to 130. And are we supposed to believe Scotty PAID to take a customers car to a dyno just for that line? Yeah no way.
@@kylesmith7755 trust lol look on my page
@0:19 Scotty didn’t have to do him like that 😂😂
Lol I've seen modified cars like this while driving my 2005 Taurus thinking this guy is gonna show off when I'm next to him at the light.
The light changes he's hitting the gas and going through the gears in a manual and I'm just pressing the gas keeping up with him and trying not to laugh thinking "what happened to the power in that normally fast car!!??"
Someone buys a turbocharged Chevy Cruize factory turbo lasts 5 years, buys a cheap Chinese one still works even up to the point that the engine blows up.
And a strut bar with stock suspension hahaha
Doesn't even put out enough horsepower to need it lol
That exhaust sounds sweet!
Midnight Mystery thank you bro
@@user-gb1ne5jj8v NP, bud!
7:08 this is my mom saying to me GOODBYYYEEEE. when I am going to sleep... ahahahahaah LOVE SCOTTY!! There is always jokes in his videos. AND TRUE KNOWLEDGE!! I feel my brain grows 10% evrytime I watch his videos!
Brain grows? I'd get that checked out..lol
Besides we only use 10% percent of ours brains so it's like saying you grew a brain
Here in FL we dont have any inspection or emissions testing. You can basically register anything as long as it has a vin number. That thing would be registered here in about 20 mins. You can register a dunebuggy..Lots of those here lol
So with all the mods done it hasn’t skipped a beat 😂😂
you know your getting old when you say a car is to loud. :)
I wonder if his clients even know he has a RUclips Channel.
Even the camera work is low quality. A very sad day for Lexus owners indeed.
Just got a 300, i love it
@Polymer Tools yea they’re tanks man. I totaled my ES and was still able to drive it home after the accident lol
