*Here is the scope I used* : DEPSTECH Dual Lens Inspection Camera - amzn.to/3RQ8nwo
I need a 5mm head so I can also use it on my AR's.
Love mine. Thanks for telling us about this before. Must have.
That is an exceptional quality camera compared the autel one I have and have attempted to use in the past. You can actually understand what you're lookin at lol.
That's a pretty slick camera. I've been considering buying an inspection camera for quite a while and decided to pull the trigger on this one after checking out the link.
Do you like this better than the split screen one ?
I picked up one of these depstech cameras. Awesome tool. I have already found 35 cents and a peanut M&M in my recliner.
Did you eat the m&m?
Lol
recliner M & M 's......
taste just like chicken
The only valid answer is yes. While denying it the whole time
Nice, the M&M's have a hard candy protective coating... you're good to go.
That is cool to be able to look inside a cylinder with such clarity! The 90 degree camera is awesome!
South Maine Auto Repair,
I am an industrial maintenance mechanic, not an auto mechanic, atleast that's what I get. paid for. I've always worked on my own cars since I was a teenager. Acquired an owners manual and started resolving my problems. Fast forward nearly 4 decades and RUclips is my new owners manual.
You kind sir in my opinion are the best of every one who does what you do on RUclips. I follow a few guys who are exceedingly useful for the DIYers like myself but I always look for you first. Thank you sir.
I truly love how every displacement is referred to as "the big". Even with this one. "The Big 1.8" lol
Yeah, Eric has done this to us since the beginning... 😆
Well that most certainly is proof positive that there is a coolant leak! Very nice demonstration Eric!
Now i can hear giordie laforge going ,,
"Coolant leak,we have a coolant leak" ,,
Kind of cool, absolutely amazing, love that 90 degree camera. Diagnostic process is the most important thing a mechanic can do, cars can't talk like humans....
Mr O showing us another drip 😂😂😂
The number one auto repair Drip channel,we can count on Mr O .
Seeing is believing! A picture or video is worth 1000 words.
awesome skills and very professional troubleshooting. Treating your customers right shows your integrity and business sense. Great job!
This is the only kind of "drip" you can enjoy watching!
My local mechanic who is also a Napa service center hates me ever since i joined this channel. Because when i bring my car in for certain services, i'm always on top of my diagnostic game making suggestions from Eric O to him on how to do his job so i get a definative answer. DO i have a blown headgasket? I'm not sure. Did you do a borascope of the cylinder? ahhhh...Nooo. Come on man!!!
The carbon on the inlet valve, needs a dose of sea foam and an extended "italian tuneup" !!.
That drip was the money shot of the year👍
Great video as usual. Word of caution: make absolutely certain engine is cool before sticking the probe in. If you can't keep your hand on the head or block for more than a couple of seconds, it's still too hot. If your picture starts getting dark, cloudy, or distorted, it's too late.
Here you are not just proving the diagnosis but showing what you mean. A perfect learning moment. Anyone can imagine a leak into the cylinder but really seeing it is another level.
Great use of the tech. Another helpful video. Thank you SMA.
The number 2 hole is often preferred by many
I chuckled
Be sure there's moisture before you try and dip your borescope in.
One of your best, most informative, and useful videos!
That's a slick little borescope! And it's VERY affordable! The Olympus borescopes I used in the oil & gas field for inspecting industrial gas turbines and compressors were 20-30K ... I have one that is about the same money, but this one seems to have a much clearer view. Time to pass the old one down and pick one of these puppies up!
Tools are so important in this profession, knowing how to use them and your words are also important. Great job!
Very concise instruction how to use an inexpensive bore scope to find blown headgasket.
No no no, Scotty Kilmer says toyotas Never, i repete, NEVER have problems😂😂😂😂😂
He’s a total nutcase…. Don’t listen to him. If you want someone to listen to about Toyotas listen to the car care nut channel
Never trust a company that changes their name to toyota from toyoda because they didnt think it sounded or looked Japanese enough...
IMHO, all makes and models of vehicles have problems, I take my ( business loyalty) to garages, dealers or mechanics that treat me honestly and respectfully. Brand loyalty means nothing if the consumer is cheated either by the dealer, seller or garage mechanic of the vehicle being fixed or serviced.
Scotty Kilmer didn't say Toyotas never have a problem he said Toyota's have far fewer problems than other manufacturers.
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Good find. One trick I learned years ago, pull plugs, put a spill free funnel on radiator or surge tank. Use a leak down tester hose connected to shop air and install in each cylinder. After air is turned on, rotate crank until the cylinder is at TDC and both valves are closed. Watch for bubbles in funnel at radiator/surge tank. Sometimes have to hold the piston up for a minute or so to show a leak.
Awesome adding that to my tools
@@Auto209 if the gasket is blown out bad into the combustion chamber, be aware it will push a lot of water out of funnel quickly. 😉. As you know Hondas are bad about head gaskets if even slightly over heated. I’ve found many this way
If it's a tiny leak as in this case, cylinder pressure can actually seal the leak like a one way valve. That's why there's only a small amount of coolant loss. Good way to find/prove a bigger coolant loss though.
I have an old Snap On inspection camera that uses an angled mirror that you put on the end to view sideways.
Just ordered this from Amazon from your link, Eric. Thanks for the great demo, my guy !
That Snap-on camera was probably way more expensive and state of the art at the time. Hope you're still not making payments on it to the Snap-on tool truck guy. 😅
Ahmed from a Car Care Nut Channel made a comparison with this camera and the Snap-On in one of his videos. He said this camera is better.
This camera does come with a magnet, a hook and a mirror, at least mine did a year ago.
I told my friends about this RUclips channel and they said I don't have to pay them this month to be my friend. Thanks Eric for putting out a cool RUclips channel.
You still have to pay us though...
Hahaha 😆 like the editing cut in! Nice touch!
Hey we got to see the play button award, congrats!
Wow the borescope is awesome, sure has changed from the first one I bought years ago. Watched your unboxing video and wanted to say psoriatic arthritis sucks. I’m 60 and have fought it since I was in my teens. I am almost wheelchair bound now. A lot of my issues were also caused by the 30 years of doing what you do everyday. Watching your videos brings back lots of memories. I did driveability work most of my time working as a tech. I like the way you are involved with networking with other techs and sharing knowledge between each other. I was a very early member of iATN and learned a lot working with other techs and developed a lot of new ways to diagnose problems. I eventually got to the point where I couldn’t do the day to day stuff and went to work for ac delco hotline. Helping others fix issues over the phone was a challenge and was fun. Started teaching and now just piddle some while retired and soaking up sun in Myrtle Beach SC. I truly enjoy watching you and have great respect for your critical thinking skills and the way you approach the diagnostic process. Getting together with other techs and picking each other’s brains is great. Back in the day I went to a few iATN conventions and other get together like Jim Linder and others. The networking with others sure made me a better tech for sure. Keep up the good work.
Thanks for coming in today Fella 👍
Wait!!!! Isn't this the day those 2 annoying youtubers came by and interrupted your work? AND your lunch? Darn them!!! Thanks again for the hospitality. We both really love your channel. The info is great. The repairs are great. The tips and tricks are great. BUT THE BEST PART IS THE UNDERLYING SUB-PLOT OF THE INCREDIBLE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN YOU AND MRS O. Thank you for being you, both if you.
THAT was great! Caught the perpetrator in action!
I actually bought one of the cheapy ones that brand makes. It came in real handy finding where my water pump was leaking without ripping the whole engine bay apart. Neat little tools!
Just had the exact same symptoms with my 2002 Tacoma 2.4. didn't even need the boroscope. just pulled the spark plugs after in cooled off and sat and there was a shinny lake on cylinder #3. rock auto $63 head gasket set with head bolts and 5 hours. she runs amazing now. thanks for your videos. Has taught me a much more fundamental approve to repairing cars. Dont just tear stuff all apart anymore.
Just bought the boroscope through your link. thanks for finding us this good deal.
A cool shot Eric of the coolant running down the cylinder wall.
That's pretty cool.
I wonder if you could use this to inspect whether valves in a direct injection engine would need walnut blasting? Easier that taking the intake off and viewing the back of the valves. You'd have to turn the engine until the intake valves open, but would be a quick check.
The cheapo borescope I have just has a 45deg mirror attachment to see the sides.
That unit is better than any I have used in aviation
The Wisdom is strong in this guy🤣😎
One more time,love this guy,love this channel!
That's kind of cool that you can see the head gasket.
Thanks ! What a for sure diagnois to show the customer.
These are great for looking behind walls as well to see where pipes and wires are.
That was cool Eric! Watching the coolant leak into the combustion chamber is a definitive confirmation of the diagnosis.
Very very cool! And darn it, got nothin to argue with you about...
Well that boroscope is great with 90 degree camera to it as well as straight down! Love that feature it certainly makes diagnosis easier to both do and see!! Thanks for sharing Eric appreciate it 😊😊
Thats a wild looking piston. Almost as if it has rivets in it!!!
Camera, ACTION, print. Cool!!
Your edit to clarify it was a blown head gasket made me laugh out loud. Thanks!!
Thanks for reminding me that I have an "up scope procedure" in a couple of months.
Awesome camera operator! I think I saw him at a hockey game tracking the puck ...just a remarkable camera man!
Decent image quality there. And being able to record to media is a big bonus. Love it.
That side camera is awesome!
That was freaking cool. Didn't know those borescope cameras with the side camera existed. Buying one of those.
Excellent use of the Depstech camera - I bought one a while back so thanks for illustrating a use of it.👍
WOW, that guy doing the editing, geez, tough boss !!
Holy Schenectady ! that's pretty dang neat
Thanks for the tip on the borescope. It's a whole lot better than the crappy one I bought a few years ago.
I love this scope. Gave my old snap-on scope to a friend 😁
Only a 6 minute video, but certainly one of the coolest videos.
that’s awesome to actually be able to see the head gasket actively leaking coolant into the cylinder
That was cool seeing the leak.
Thanks for sharing Eric. Very informative and helpful Artie 👍
Very nice post, I can'r believe the quality of the picture for a $135 scpoe
That is amazing tech Eric. Thank you very much for the demonstration. Cheers.
Love watching your videos because it's helped a lot
Perfect candidate for a bottle of stop leak in the radiator
That was very cool to watch. Thanks for the lesson, it is appreciated greatly.
fascinating to see this
I bought that borescope the last time it was featured in an SMA video...works great, especially considering the price!
LOVE SHOW AND TELL
Neat-o torpedo, Eric O! Great demo! 👋👍
That’s a cool video, pinpointed the exact place of the leak.
This channel needs to be at 1 million subscribers already.
I got the teslong borescope for 50.00 about a year ago, connect via. bluetooth or tether to laptop. I kinda like the one you linked to better. I remember guys spending hundreds if not thousands on these tools not so many years ago. We can all afford one now. Totally worth having since there not made of unobtanium any more. Thanks Eric O.
That is a great way to test and see results! I will have to try that the next time I have a suspected head gasket issue!
WOW! Awesome! Thank you for sharing and stay safe.
That scope has very good clarity.
Whoa! It's kind of like a colonoscopy, but without the prep!
super nice way to determine if valves are dirty on GDI engines. Nice!
HEY. I got that same borescope ! Really comes in handy. And I got it for free.
Indeed, very cool!
You're right - that is pretty cool!
Great video Eric, thank you very much. Watched it 3.40am UK time on my coffee break during a Nightshift, very much appreciated.
what a safe of time and of work and safe your Walt
That dual camera is an awesome tool. You can now see everything in the cylinder. Very cool.
On Wheeler Dealers, the mechanic (Elvis) tested a Jaguar for a blown head gasket using 3 tests. You showed 2 of the tests - Borescope and Pressure Test via the Radiator, but the one that involves science is the Combustion Gas in the Coolant Test. The cool part is the blue liquid changes color if exposed to exhaust gases.
ruclips.net/video/U0DdVQoBu4U/видео.html 😏 here's an oldie
Yes, pretty cool. Thanks for sharing.
Nice resolution on that device.
Pretty neat-o catching the leak in the act.
Appreciate your videos, always. Thank you!
Hi, Mr. O. The borescope is definitely a valuable tool to have. The internals of the engine, exhaust system, and fuel tank might all be worthwhile targets for such a device. Thanks for sharing! Stay Healthy!
Nice job!
Keeping it real with Eric O,
that was pretty cool. now I want one...
I would love a video of the entire head gasket replacement. That is one of the bigger jobs, and it has been a while since a job like that has been posted.
Excellent Detective Work, Eric!
Picked up one of these endoscopes. I now have a job at the local hospital in the surgery unit.
Thanks for the info!
A Prius colonoscopy. What an invention.
When you were swinging it around (no pun intended) it looked like the exhaust valve was bad(burnt out valve bad)! If that was my Prius I'd just Chuck a Head gasket in a bottle at it!
We use this same camera and view it on an Ipad for a big screen, you can capture an image to email or text it. Drop a socket or wrench down in a car? Find it with a camera. Really handy for $40 very good pictures.
You are a Great Tech Mr o thats why i always watch your videos.
I now have 3 of the Depstech boroscopes. I keep upgrading as they come out with something better. My latest one is the dual camera that I became aware of from watching your earlier video. They are awesome and I've used them to solve several issues. Thanks for another great video and thanks for sharing 😊
Iv got that original Snap-on red borescope, used it about 6 times, very cool. Was, like $1500 at the time, before smart phones was all the fun.
