      Don't! throw your ac on . heat only adjust it . Saves fuel and your ac unit . Good wiper blades made of silicon this is scotty knowledge of the wiper blades. but using heat will work better cool your engine more which helps , keeps you cozy and the moisture/fogged windows will be gone . I'm going for a ride now .

    • @archangele1
      @archangele1 7 лет назад +11

      Could not agree more. I see so many videos where you have to put up with 5 minutes of introduction prattle, then a tidbit of information, then another off subject prattling session, then, finally one more piece or relevant information. The worse are with two guys chatting away and constantly going off topic. 20 minute videos with about 1.5 minutes of actual useful information. Scotty's videos are a breath of fresh air. Short and to the point, always with good information.

    Just a bunch of low life haters. He is not trying to sell you anything. Try to accept people as they are. May be there's a reason why he speaks loud. Don't like it; then, don't watch. Just stop being mean for no good reason. I like his videos and I wish him good luck.

      I actually enjoy watching his videos. Explaining stuff that only takes a few minutes vs someone else explaining the same thing in a 1+hour video.
      Also, he speaks loudly and clear, which is a good thing. For starters, I don't have to turn then volume all the way up on my phone, unlike most videos which are low in volume levels.

    Mr Scotty I want to thank you for making your knowledge available and thank you again for the un cluttered get to the point manner that makes your videos stands out as the most confidence instilling voice of reason and common sense when im faced with attempting a repair .you have saved me stupid sums of money this year and your insights on hidden damage helped me keep my daughter out of a well camouflaged jeep cherokee that we learned recently had an electrical fire and the purchaser was badly burned trying to put the fire out. because of your efforts your wisdom was the deciding "no sale"factor in what Would have been my baby girls 1000 mile a month school/ work transportation . blessings to you and yours!

    • @teravolt6113
      @teravolt6113 6 лет назад

      Tell her to carry a dry powder extinguisher and some boxes/cans of food grade baking soda in her car. That way, she could also be the one saving someone else who's trying to put a car fire out from bad burns (and maybe saving that car too), in addition to be able to react to a car fire in a slightly better way than most people do (basically getting out of the car and panicking; for this very reason, in some countries such as Austria and Russia, extinguishers are mandatory on private cars). The baking soda eats fire away, it's a great complement for an extinguisher. I personally carry 6 kgs of it on my car, since there's not enough room for a decently sized extinguisher.

  • @larryticerm.d.1130
    @larryticerm.d.1130 8 лет назад +4

    Very good help and thanks-I was having to replace my refrigerant once a year for the past two years but I got smart this last winter and ran the ac for a short period every day I would drive the car -especially even in the winter. I am certain that this kept the lubricant (ac system oil) circulating and kept the system seals lubricated, and therefore I did not lose the refrigerant over the winter (as had been the case previously), and lo and behold, I did not have to recharge the system at all this year and the ac is nice and cold! Yea! By the way (and if you do not mind me asking) are you by any chance related to Billy Kilmer (the ex NFL quarterback?)

I've seen it done countless times on residential. people just don't know any better. I'm sure you know that.

Once they fixed the radiator, let me drive off with it without paying and come back in two weeks to pay half and pay the rest in another two weeks.

    I clicked on this cause i noticed my ac doesnt cool much if its over say 75. I just figured i was low on 134 and not much in the vid would help. So sure enuf i checked the fans like Scotty said and the radiator fan motor is dead. The car never overheats so i never noticed it. Thanks Scotty! I never knew that both fans should run with the ac on. You mightve saved me a burnt out compressor.

    • @teravolt6113
      @teravolt6113 6 лет назад

      Yes, he definitely saved your compressor (and many other very expensive parts with it too). Such a high discharge pressure does no good to the lubricant oil and to the reed valves. I myself think i saved a city bus' AC compressor by telling the driver that the AC unit was running with only one condenser fan working out of five (don't ask me why, because i don't know, but it still worked, you could hear the compressor vibrating and shaking violently something like 50 feet away from the bus, and the driver told me that it was cooling, but very weakly; i've seen one of these compressors before on these buses and they don't have any unloading valve, only HP and LP switches).

      Jason Phillips Apparently ,Donald Trump finds the beaches attractive & wants to build a hotel in North Korea . Venezuela ..There was a time when Transport for London U.k.was run on Venezuelan oil ..But when Boris Johnson was elected London Mayor he cancelled this .. Preferring to get from Saudi Arabia ..When the banks failed ,they were bailed out by the state ..Apart from Barclays of London .Which was bailed out by the Saudi Arabians . An oil rich country . ...U.S. owes 1 trillion dollars to China . If the free market was what Trump believed in .Why is he foolishly introducing tariffs . Workers deserve respect ,protection , health care. This isn't communism it's called civilization.

    Hi Scotty - watched a ton of videos and you've saved me countless dollars doing simple stuff myself and learning what to watch out for at the stealership. Anyways here is my dilemma. I have a 2003 Honda Civic with a weird A/C issue. upon starting the vehicle, the A/C works fine. as soon as you press the A/C button you can hear the "click" of the compressor clutch magnets engaging and cold air comes out of the vents. also want to add that both radiator fans work fine as well. after a few minutes of driving the compressor clutch disengages and will not re-engage. i will press the A/C button off, then on again and it won't work. the fan comes on at the radiator, but the compressor clutch will not engage. if i leave it off for about 10-15 mins of driving then turn it back on..wah-lah...the compressor clutch engages and A/C comes on blowing cold air. again though, works for a few minutes then stops. do you have any idea what could be the problem?

    The cabin filter is a very overlooked fix. My ac felt kinda weak and would take a very long time to cool. I though that it needed more refrigerant or maybe the blower fan was giving out. Then one day I changed my cabin filter and the old one was full of lint, leaves, debris and crud, once I changed it, the ac worked like new! So do check your cabin filters.

  • @wildbill23c

    I replaced the AC compressor, and all the o-rings, receiver/drier, orifice tube in my truck last season, vacuumed the system down, leak tested and recharged with R134A. I get 32 degree air from the vents even on the hottest days.
    I had a shop do the R134A conversion in one of my other trucks several years ago, the system didn't even last 1 season, it only worked a few weeks and then failed and it cost almost $2,000 to have all the work done. I did the same stuff myself and with buying the vacuum pump, gauge set, compressor, o-ring kit, receiver/drier, orifice tube, leak test die, refrigerant and oil I only spent $500 the biggest cost was the compressor.
