Wizard raised 10% repair cost every time Hoovie shined flashlight in his face
He was kind of a dick for doing that so many times.
@@davidcastillo1340 He should be nice to the wizard, else he may ban him from the shop!
@@estpst worse still, he could cast a lemon spell
Or he could just tell Hoodie he has to go to The used car lot guy for repairs.
Good thing he had that fazer set to stun.
Sell all your other cars and keep this van. You have achieved automotive excellence.
It needs to be twincharged YESTERDAY
Awesome comment. I agree.
@@thelastmemphian
Turbos don't really do a whole lot, though...
He also achieved it with his 1998 Lexus LX470 and also with his 90s Lexus ES300 five speed manual ! But he sold them!
He should modify it and make it a real super car van
“$100 for an oil change?!”
“Yeah, because you kept shining the flashlight in my face!”
It's a comedy act better than the MARX BROTHERS
I'll tell ya hwut
Yeah. If i were The Wizard, I would grabbed that light out of Tyler's hands and chucked it across the garage. Annoying.
keep annoying the wiiiizard then make a vid of every time you annoyed mr wizard lol.
Hoovie was about 10 seconds away from having to go to the ER to have some KY jelly and tongs applied to that torch.
Normal people : I'm moving, I'll rent a van
Hoovie : buys a Previa
I have a friend that bought a full size Dodge truck to move, then sold it after.
It's smart. Previa's are dirt cheap and most are still reliable even with tons of mileage.
Dude, I bought a 96 previa for $700 and then went home packed the van up and a week later I was living in it. 5 months later it's still my home lol. 😂

I love how uncomfortable wizard got when hoovie invited him to sit with him
That opening shot was definitely the best Hoovie has done so far. 10/10
I wholeheartedly agree
a Next Gen parody of the E's SHUTTLE BAY
@@gertraba4484 Exactly what I was thinking
Agreed. Liking the stranger things/80s/90s vibes
I had one of the 4WD version - put over 350k on it. Common trouble spots that matter:
Check the oil on the supercharger and don't let it run dry - it is proprietary liquid gold but fortunately very small amount required.
The oil level sensor that replenishes the engine oil from the reservoir up front commonly fails and over fills the engine. You will hear the pump engage when it is replenishing. Pay attention. A good practice is to refill the engine with oil from the reservoir following an oil change.
The SADS (secondary accessory driveshaft or supplementary auxiliary driveshaft) has flexible coupling bushings that fail. You will hear it initially and then feel it get sloppy. In early years, the only fix was to replace the SADS. Now parts are available. Every owner dreaded the day when their turn would come.
The enthusiast community for these "Beans" back in the day was almost cultish. There is a breadth of info available from user forums back in the 90's.
Great info. Thanks for sharing.
Martin Zwicker the supercharger oil is probably rebranded AC Delco Supercharger oil
Overall, it was one of the most reliable minivans in its time.
"SADS"..... How utterly appropriate!
I have often maintained that this was one of the most reliable and utilitarian, if not unique, vehicles ever to make it to market!
That is one great looking and fast Toyota Labia!
This really is a good representation of 90s high end tech. These are a nightmare to work on for a home mechanic but they run forever.
ThriftStore Hacker - Agree, a few vehicles are done to be worked with a car lift only only. This is one of them. Although for regular stuff (oil change, etc.) you can get away without it. Can't say I enjoyed working on these. But it's alright.
Yep! My parents had one during my childhood, and that thing could not be killed. It had close to like 150k miles on it. Along with it being a family van before hand as well. So it had seen some hella use. The only way the car from my childhood died. Was due to a wreck. I cant remember what it was. Though something in it broke that made it legally not road worthy. Though it kept on trucking right back to the repair shop. Where me and my family were heart broken that the cost of the repair was more than the car. (At the time we didnt know these things were basically indestructible lol.) So we sold it for scrap and got a new. Just as almost indestructible Toyota Camry. (It sucked with a family of 5 at the time though lol
@@TemptationsEnd yo! My parents still have their 1994 Previa with more than 300.000 km on it. The only broken parts were the Radiator and the thermostat and ignition cables. All the other things were only usual wear parts. The rear drum brakes are still from 1994.
unfortunately they didnt keep it in good condition, so it looks like a piece of junk.
I learned wrenching on a Previa, my first car, did it all, they're no worse than a front-wheel drive
I hope you're right, because O have one ;- )
Tyler Buys a Car

@@somersetlax it's a CAR LOVE STORY...........Sorry is not having to say I PADDED the BILL!!!!!!!!!! cameo appearances by Ryan o'Niel and Ali McGraw
Our 1991 Previa DX served my family well for 19 years! LOVED driving it and it easily carried our family of 5 plus mother-in-law plus TONS of luggage on our summer vacations without ever needing to put a luggage storage unit on the roof! Never felt under powered and wasn't even super charged. But sadly, one day it was broadsided and it flipped over onto its roof. No one was hurt. I REALLY miss that van!
Still driving my 91. Rebuilt engine and swapped transmission at 400k
@@SteveODellFilmstheWorld 400k miles??? or km? either way impressive.
I'm thinking of buying a 1995 previa. with 201k km // 125k miles .
Any tips?
I have found on the internet that it is important to check the air cooling and the brakes on these previa's.
Anything else?
@@thelaurens1996 400k miles. My advice? Clean oil, tuned up and filters and don't let them overheat.
Lol Prevacid 😆 🤣. Glad Wizard is patient and didn’t punch you in the face for the light. Very cool van, and very interesting design choices. Thank you for sharing it with us!
Fix the coolant tank with some 2 part epoxy glue for $7.99
I was thinking the same. Or possibly weld it. Or put a patch.
Some FlexSeal should do the trick
Coolant tank repair with various adhesives......I have an engine out in my shop now taken out as a result. Summit racing aluminum tanks in various shapes work well for unobtainable stuff.
I have used this "plastic welder" on a lawn mower fuel tank and also a washer reservoir on my old car (new one is not available). The good thing about this, compared to just melting the old stuff back together, is you can add plastic to the area you are repairing. www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00IEX6NME/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Epoxy resin FTW
Poor judgement: Keep annoying Wizard and your repair estimates will double.
$100 for all oil change. Hope that flashlight was fun
@@joey69d That was actually quite fair. He said it takes 8-9 quarts of oil. Two five quart gallons of Mobile One, depending on the variant, is a good $50 easy. Then add the filter and the basic charge (I think an average drive-in oil change shop charges around $30 or so), and the price was totally fair.
@@PeugeotRocket I'm aware. I was making the flashlight announce a bigger deal
His little joke is going to cost him
Make that a $500.00 oil change at this rate!
Hey Hoovie, I have a 1996 Previa and an extra coolant reservoir in my shed. I'll send it to you if I can get a shout out on a video.
Synikal he mentioned something about making one from a VW or Audi fit. I got the one I have from the junkyard due to the likelihood that mine will crack at some point.
You really tested the Wizard's patience. Thanks for a look at an interesting car, can't wait to see the oil leak with the rags removed.
Famous last words: "I don't think that i would get uppercutted by the steering wheel."
Early '90s Renault Twingos (which had a similarly short snout) had the same problem, until Renault installed a telescopic steering column. Why they didn't bother with this most basic of safety features is beyond me. They probably didn't expect their little car to ever be publicly crash tested.
bothers me every day I fire it up
Wizard : “I don’t know if I’d own a plebia van” 😂🤣😂

Cheapest RWD Supercharged Mid-Engine vehicle to maintain.
If this was truly an 'exotic' car, the next video should be - "I gave my Previa to a friend, and it burst into flames"
LMAO :-)
..and Tavarish bought it.
If he keeps parking it next to Ferraris, then he won't have to.
Hoovie and the Wee-zard are the best couple on RUclips! 😂😂
Like Marty and Doc Brown! On acid!
Matt those could be the new odd couple!
No no, its Marty and Moog from MCM.
I used to love those Dateline NBC car crash segments from the 90s. That's where the previa clip came from.
Interestingly, we were in a offset head on collision in our 91, similar to this video, except we hit a car instead of a wall, both going over 65. Low center of gravity kept it from rolling. We walked away from accident with no injuries. Driver of other car broke his leg. Bought a ‘92 with AWD to replace and owned 13 years.
This would be an excellent first car. I sure wish I had all of that space in the back when I was younger. It's amazing what you can pull off in a compact car with a little determination and a lot of desire.
😂😂
I wouldn't want to put a first driver into such a dangerous car.
I grew up in these
My dad had 4 and they all are so unreliable then he got his range rover which has cost less than these in maintenance.

@@gabrieljin8326 It still has the original gearbox, had it refurbished at 400 000 km(248 500 miles), because the first gear was slipping and reverse didn't always engage. After the refurbish, the gearbox has been flawless and they gave a guarantee of 100 000 km (62 000 miles).
Premature ejaculation van
Leaky reservoir: seal seal buddy SEAM SEALER!!! Hot melt glue also works well on that plastic. 5 min epoxy doesn't stick that well to HDPE. You could even get out a soldering iron and plastic weld it.
SADS... separated accessory drive shaft. And thats your timing case cover, common leak area, covers the timing chain
I ALWAYS (since they were new) wanted a Previa, one with a manual transmission, and would still practically kill for! Privias are among the first and absolutely among the coolest regular production vans ever.
*_*something broke_*
TOYOTA: *wait, that's illegal*
Hoovie: *ah, it's ok. Even my dog can afford the repair cost*
Most nonsensical comment goes to....
😂😂😂
I think Hoovie REQUIRES cars to be broken when he buys them. Wanna sell him a car? Make sure it has a laundry list of needed repairs!
That's why he buys only the cheapest! :-D
Well perfect cars wouldn’t make any videos would they?
@@mhandler2000 Usually. He did pre-order that brand new Jeep.
@@PeugeotRocket he got snookered on that Jeep Gladiator and whoin their right mind would trade in a GMC for that ?
@@gertraba4484 How did he get snookered?
I don't care for most America vehicles in general but at least the Gladiator has some neat things about it, like being able to practically turn it into a 4x4 convertible and the interior is apparently water resistant.
The GMC was just a truck. Sure, it was a nice truck but unless you really need a work horse, there is no point in having one over the other options out there.
To drain the tank you need to drain the engine oil and while it's draining turn and leave the ignition on. It will cause the oil tank to pump oil into the engine to empty the tank out
Delete catalytic converter and install a sports exhaust...that Previa will go from 160hp to about 190hp, trust me....you'll feel the difference! Supercar mini-van for real.
And it will be unregisterable
@@aliabdallah102 in Kansas he will have no problems registering it.
@@hellyalee I thought Kansas did require emissions testing?

Ali Abdallah if you live and california and you got a buddy that works at a registered deq auto shop, just ask him to pass you haha
“ i will stick that where the sun never rises “ Wizard is savage lol
The coolant tank is the same as many toyota's, hit up a auto wreckers and pick one up for $5.
Yeah, might have a different design but car manufacturers love reusing already designed parts. Saves money.
The wizard heard you were going to “Pull your lever”, and he got the hell outta that van!
Love the Star Trek references. Plus I also call the Previa a Tarago (as that’s what it is called here in Australia 😂)
Alright, gotta say, that intro music .. When you want to say your Previa is a "stranger thing" LOL
Previa soundslike an ITALIAN Pasta sauce or a topical Hemorrhoids creme
According to a toyota forum, that leak on 95 and *newer previa coolant tanks is common. 91-94s used a better design where the seam was lateral instead of going top-to-bottom. I'd buy an aftermarket unit on fleabay.
One really good thing about the Prevacid van is if you're ever homeless, you've got everything you need to be comfortable in an old van. Tons of room, a chaise lounge that lays out into a bed. Heck, that's not a minivan, it's an RV.
I have a 1991 Previa with only 45 thousand original miles on it. Bought it from the original owner and it looks and drives just like new. I have had lots of other ones since they came out and they have always been one of the best cars I have ever owned. They were so ahead of their time. I have people ask me today what is it and they are always schocked when I tell them the age and maker. I still keep my eye out for another but most have way too many miles and rust. Mine is so mint I don't think I will be able to find another like it. Love them for ever 😍
Dude, you fix that reservoir with windshield two component glue.
A clean, hot soldering iron would repair the radiator reservoir. Failing that, JB Weld for Plastic.
2 videos in 3 days? Hovie you are spoiling us
These things have just become cooler than they already were. Love the intro 👌
I used my previa when I moved. Even my 21 cubic feet fridge fitted in there. You can even put 4x8 drywall sheets. Big help. 👍
I did same thing
Took kenmore to A/C School
installed new compressor
Absolutely astonished
Cruised as normal...
Greatest minivan ever - until you are in a head-on collision.
well then, *don't* get in a head-on collision
problem solved
:-)
These things are super super common here in New Zealand could probably send you a reservoir for free
TheOrangePulley just pay shipping and handling
I'd love to import a 5-speed manual non-blown 2wd model from kiwiland (ultimate long distance small work van!) but I don't think I'd ever warm to the wrong-side drive setup! :-P
Wishing you and your Previacid a happy time together! Love Wizard's "I know nothing about these vans" at 10:17; Hoovie's like a kid asking "what happens next?" and the dad says, "I haven't seen this movie either!"
Loved my Previa, so deliciously strange yet 90’s futuristic.
For those who weren’t around, google the dashboard of a 1988 Chrysler minivan and then the dashboard of this.
The feeling one gets from sitting in the second row of either is so drastically different, it’s wild.
Absolutely otherworldly.
My brother has one of these as his weekend fun car. He loads motorcycles into it even. These vans are incredibly big on the inside.
Ya know...if you'd kept the LX470, you could have moved scads of stuff with it but you SOLD IT!
I think the previous had greater cargo volume.
J Woodman it's a previscent
is it mid engine supercharged tho
J Woodman he could have hauled a massive u-haul trailer with the LX470 though. Shame he sold it! It was one of his best cars
Your right but its great content for the channel. I'm sure he can afford to hire a moving company 🤣
i have 246,000 on my 95' Previa. i saw many Previa in the junkyard with over 240K miles. Very reliable and fun to drive. i would buy another if they continued to make them.
Agreed. My neighbor had one from new. He put 500k on the clock. It was still going fine. Little bit of maintenance every year, that was it. He eventually sold it and bought the latest model.
Gotta love when the garage theme comes on louder than anything else and wakes me up at the end of the video
I totally agree - the best mini van, because everything mid-engined is automatically awesome.
The sweet old van deserves an OEM Toyota coolant reservoir, not some rigged up mess. Do the right thing David (do the right thing Tyler).
The Wizard agrees
Seriously! This guy has built an enormous house & owns all these cars but still would rather rig up this van instead of just buying an original OEM reservoir for a few hundred dollars. Unbelievable how many people cut corners just because they think they'll save a few dollars but usually end up spending more in the long run & driving down the resale value of their own car.
@@rosseaton89 To be fair, 300 dollars for a plastic bottle is a ripoff.
@@xluumu probably printone cheeeper in a digital printer off the net
ger traba Unfortunately printed parts don’t usually hold liquid without some sort of sealant, even with industrially printed stuff
omg hoovie, my brother and I just raced you! I was amazing meeting you!
In the late 90’s I worked at a Toyota dealership in Minneapolis, and I recall chatting to one of the senior mechanics who told me the Previa was the best car Toyota had ever made!
Simon Barrett if I can should I buy one?
Man I used to work on these when I was a Toyota dealership tech, in the 90's. Previas without the superchargers were dogs, especially going up a long hill. The supercharger helped but the fuel mileage is not great.
The Prevacid looked right at home between the Lambo & the NSX.
Hi when you turn the ignition on if the oil level is low oil will be sent from the tank under the bonnet to your engine. This brilliant idea was put in because it was thought that because the dipstick was under the seat owners would neglect to check the oil level. These vans really are great. Here in the UK we had rev counters, moon roofs, tailgate spoilers ect. Only downside I encountered was fuel consumption.
I love this ‘Thing’. Thanks for the video.

2:48 the wizard is workin on an nsx and a murciélago,and then a toyota previa appears and make everybody laugh for hours
the 1st generation of Nissan Serena also had similar FMR layout & driver sitting on the engine. Maybe it was not marketed to US.
It was never marketed in the United States. Just the Toyota van and the Toyota Previa.
Does not count because ugly. :-P
@Mona can be easily swapped with SR20DET. 2 Liter variant already equipped with a non turbo SR20
Wizard knows his Trek.
The stranger things music at the beginning is making me watch the whole show again. Thanks lmfao
Sweet intro Hoovie. I forgot how excited I am for season three. TEAM STEVE!!
*Does anyone elsenremember the video from about a year ago where Wizard called up Hoovie and complained about how annoying he was to work with and that he gets in the way in his shop and everything? Im pretty sure its since deleted.*
I read a story about when on the launch of this Previa, a British or US journo asked the Toyota engineer present about the odd mounting and what would happen if the engine broke.
The Toyota engineer said with a straight face "The engine will not break."
I'm betting the majority of Previas still in existence are still running.
jd i just bought one in nice condition with 501,000km. going strong.
It's a TOYOTA! NOT breaking is what Toyotas do well!
I think those engines did have a problem with clearances being too tight and the oil passages would gum up.
This is the first I’m seeing this van, also when u just finished the house I have only ever seen your videos with all those cars in there. So that was interesting
That mechanic didn’t want to lie down because he thought you were trying to lure him in there to play with his crank! 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
While I'm fixing the coolant tank with JB Weld I puff on the Cannabis Cigar and get all schmoked up.
Yeah, I would jabber tried patching with epoxy before spending crazy dollars on a replacement, it trying to source AND ADAPT a vw tank.
K.I.S.S.!
Next van, the 1987 Toyota Van, 4wd, manual shift
You have no idea how happy I am you bought this
I think you should replace the springs with the shocks/struts as well. So much better ride for only a couple hundred.
Thanks for sharing.
Supercharged, mid engine,rear wheel drive of course this is the coolest minivan ever...
$100 for Mobil one oil? Hell the large 5+qt jugs are $25.27 at Walmart lol
well it did take like 8-9 so 2 5 qt jugs is then $50 or so roughly then adding on the filter and oil change cost its not that bad really. i would say thats average then
taz874 - right?
Because the Wizard he got them overheads, like.
Then change it yourself.
@@taz874 my Benz takes 9.5 and I use two jugs so with filter totals $60 but of course I do my own work and don't have to add the shop tax to the price lol
@@repnatl doing it yourself always works out cheaper since you save on labour costs. Garages have to make their money somehow
always love your intros
Couple things I learned with mine. Your mechanic is right that coupling for the SADS (secondary alternate drive shaft) system can be replaced with a BMW one. The Previa is the only flat online 4 (they call it an L4) engine sold in North America. And the oil reservoir under the hood is for emergency use only. So if you use oil it supplements from there. Also it (only) takes 6 quarts to fill that 4 cylinder up 🙄. Message me if you want more info or anything. I still have mine. It's a dual sunroof swivel seat model.
Hi may I ask where the Supercharger is located and if you recommend replacing the SADS with a BMW one? Thank you
Please buy a wagon like a Caprice
Now that's a hooptie intro.
“You bring me some doozies sometimes, man.”
He’s also The Understatement Wizard, apparently. 🤣
LOL!! I had one of these about 10 years ago while on temporary assignment to Kirtland Air Force base in New Mexico. I got it for $800 and although it was ugly as sin, it had a surprising amount of pick up for a mini-van. I only put about 1200 miles on it so I never had the pleasure of changing the oil or doing much maintenance, because I sold it for the same thing I paid ($800) about 8 months later to a coworker when I shipped out again. I’d never drive any other minivan, but if I had the chance to get another of these in good order for under $1k, I’d do it in a heart beat.
Wizard didn't even purge the plasma manifold or run level 1 diagnostics on the EPS conduits? Fire him.
A tachyon pulse directed through the main deflector array should be able to solve any problem he’s got.
No TRI-corder or LCARS consoles to do a level 3 diagnostic on the PREVIA? What kind of stone age auto repair shop is this?:))
Dude the toyota 22re, 2rz, 3rz, and FZ engines were all chains.
To drain the oil tank, you drain the main oil out of the pan, and then turn the key on (don't start it) and it will feed the oil into the motor and out the pan. Do this with the oil plug out. It's a system designed to feed the motor more oil in the event of a low level event.
I love that you're a Next Gen fan Hovie
It’s ok it’s only a Toyota it’s not going to break the bank
Seriously, this.
I'm just over here owning a 2000 E320 4MATIC - Front Strut, Ball joint, Brake lines and rewelding my exhaust system back up since people can't load their trucks right on highways...$1165.
Geralt of Rivia Surely you’re Paying someone to fix all that for that total? For the most part fixing a 2000 E class is not going to be considerably more than a Toyota. Sure certain things will be but the average wear items are not expensive at this point.
For comparisons sake, I put a new alternator on mine 05 e320, I went OEM and it was around 225 for a brand new Bosch Alternator. Then my wife’s Honda needed an alternator and we went with the shitty auto parts store and got a reman one and it was 200 dollars. M
Comparing what it costs to fix a base model Toyota like a corolla or something with a Mercedes is kind of silly really. After it’s fixed you’re driving a Mercedes not some little econobox. If Cheap to fix was your first priority then you might have bought the wrong car, but for what it is it’s quite reasonable. It’s over 4000 lbs, so all the suspension bits are going to be more substantial and cost a bit more. If you do want cheap there are tons of aftermarket options for an old Merc though.
@@CAepicreviews What happened to Roach?
@@benjaminford8173 Nothing, Roach has just been upgraded and modernized.
@@mcearl8073 yeah, that was the cost for everything, with labor and tax. The parts are definetly more expensive if I want the right stuff, from Merc. I had to do my hood latches and hood latch release cable, over 60 for each latch, and nearly 60 for the release cable itself. If I hadn't done it myself, labor would have been over 300.
Yeah, it's definetly a different car. I never argued it should be as cheap to fix, and fuck do I love my car so I won't go cheap.
It's just for the sake of comparison. Also, I need to get a new brake hose, so that's gonna be a fun bill.
