I always carry tools, I have everything but a air thank and air tools in my z33 ( 350z ) not only for me but other people that are broken down on the side of the road. comes in handy and saves a lot of money than paying for a tow truck
no actually most motherfuckers would do the job properly so this doesn't happen. being that he has probably done this a dozen times he feels like a hot shot being able to rip it apart on the spot. so he can look like mr pro ricer. I can fix my car anywhere because I can fuck it up anywhere lmao....he obviously has done this already cause he knows his work is shit and spur of the moment so he has gaskets with him. hmmmm does he reuse the head bolts lmao.. great job unknowing wannabe show off.....nnnnnnooooootttttttt
No most ppl would pay to get the job done because most ppl don't know what to do. The bolts are fine as long as they don't reach their stretching point which is set a good margin above the torque point, and as far as we kno those aren't factory bolts considering he modified the engine so he may have stronger bolts. I never would have thought ppl who say they are mechanics would knock a guy for fixing his car on the spot because he had what he needed to get the job done honestly what mechanic doesn't have any tools in his car, I have well over 400 tools in my trunk that I'll need to work on my car or to help someone else out. The only thing I wouldn't do is not wait for the engine to cool down.
^^ No, he actually has more issues on his hands now when it could of just been a simple head gasket replace. Definitely will need his valves adjusted for it to run correctly and by seeing how he was just taking off random bolts, I don't think he has the knowledge to adjust his own valves.
respect? he doesn't have a clue what taking apart a motor when it's hot does to a motor. furthermore if he is carrying a head gasket with him he knows the heads warped or doesn't know why it keeps over heating or blowing as he put it. warped head or crack in head or block prolly from doing this
@@shortcurcuit5779 While you may be correct, most people would probably have no idea what to do and less likely have the tools on deck, so kudos for that. That being said, it blew my mind how this dude was not only taking apart this smoking engine, but also touching it with his bare hands. Dude’s got the spirit for sure! 😭😂
He looked like he was in a mad rush. The young man decided to break the rules by acting on the hot engine, and he proceeded ahead two steps further after turning off the engine plus opening up the hood. The young man looked rushed and for no apparent reason but crowd control most of them mechanics at the car show. He succeeded at the end, looking at the final ending of this clip with the engine finally cooling. This is a young mind at work folks. "I tell you h'whut" moments.

@@CMONBUDDYSMH "i like taking a cheaper option that requires less work. only broke people take the more expensive option." what does that even mean my dude.
Yeah, those Honda lawn-mowers are pretty easy to work on, and cheap. Thin metal, cheap parts, and lousy engineering make them a dream for repair shops....since they're in the shop all the time; nothing but profit when they see a Honda roll in (usually on a tow truck).
So any tuner should have all spare parts back in the trunk and able to fix head gasket on the spot? lol. Nothing wrong with maintaince on a proper garage. Pay a little more but get more.
+KronosSlots never said that. Apart from the fact that they totally rip you off for easy work, and the fact that most tuners will then try and brag about it even though they've never laid a finger on it.

Call this kid a ricer all you want... But at least he knows how to work on his own damn car, unlike the hotshot in the $200,000 RocketBunny GT-R who doesn't even know how to change a tire...
seethat M yes your right but just because he drives a nice car it doesn’t mean he should know how to fix it maybe they like the look of it or the speed or it. When you buy a home they don’t expect you to know how to build it. That’s like saying I’m a fool because I own a big home but don’t know how to do basic reapers on it or build it. You catch my drift.

Travis A ok two points 1) some people call anti-freeze/coolant water 2) the only way he would crack the block is if he leaves the plain water in there through the freezing weather. Seeing as how it looks like it's summer time in this video, the risk of cracking the block is slim to none.
He is a car enthusiast because he can take shit off? If the video was longer, maybe, but so far all that's been proven is that he can remove bolts with a drill.
Mike - ...and if I asked my three year old where to go to change my brakes, he would know where to go. That doesn't mean shit. ANYBODY can take a car apart. Doesn't prove that he knows anything.
Mike ignore him. His argument is that a three year old could change brakes, but let me tell you something. Anyone can take shit off but diagnosis is a talent.
None of them cause it's a stupid idea to change a head gasket on the spot. The motor is still hot so you can guarantee his head is warped when he removes it, He has a crowd around him so it's pressure on him and easy to break concentration, he didnt mark his Cams so when he puts it back together the timing is off, and why is he even going to a car show with a new head gasket (Let's hope he also brought new internal bolts cause they must be replaced too because they're tty bolts) know his shit is fucked in the first place??. I give him an A for effort but you don't do jobs like that on the street. I know it sucks to be that guy that has to have his car towed out the lot at a meet but he should have taken that L and just have it towed back home
I hope, at least, it got him home. Them torque-yields are a pain in the butt sometimes, but honestly, I'd rather bodge together something that'll work for a while and maybe cause damage to get home rather than have to spend a lot of money for a towwy.
Even if he does all the work himself except for milling the block and head, the price of the milling work plus a replacement head will run him about a grand, conservatively. The tow home would cost about $75 if he is less than an hour away. And judging by the crowd and apparent location I am guessing he is less than ten miles from home. Personally, I would not "bodge" the job in order to look more manly, risking a warped or cracked head or block and minimum of a grand in parts and highly specialized labor (possibly thousands more, or just a replacement vehicle, seeing how that car probably would not merit thousands on a new head) when the car can be safely trailered home for under a hundred bucks. Having big balls is not quite the same as being a complete and utter fool to impress your friends.
Holton 345 u guys for grt when ur young u dont care. U make it work and trade parts. U can get a jdm motor for 2k so y not fix it. This car will b run into the ground im sure
I remember watching this back around 2012 and was blown away by this. Nowdays I'm still impressed because now I have Hondas and I may be quick with a d series or f series sohc while its cold but this dude is amazing for being able to do all that while its piping hot.
I'm amazed if he can get the head bolts out. Twice I have had 2 just immediately round off even with a new 6pt socket at the junk yards. Now I carry a set of nut grabber ones as well
Hes a legend cuz he knows how to unbolt a cam cover?are you for real.he then proceeds to unscrew cam carriers whilst his cam belt is still on.this guy is no where near doing a head gasket on spot.not saying it cant be done but first he would run out of day light and second he would have to take head away for pressure testing and possible skimming.find it hard to believe that people who are car nuts actually know fuck all about car that this impressed you.
Blorox Cleach hmmm common sense would tell me that you would never work on a hot engine, cause it increases your risk of stripping out bolt threads. But at least he knows how to take it apart, and I don’t actually know how hot the engine is, and judging by how he isn’t screaming at grabbing the bolts, yeah it’s not that hot, but it could be hot enough to strip out some threads maybe?
How much could he know if he's loosening the head bolts on a hot engine and he drives around with cam cap bolts stripped and missing and he is reassembling an engine with unknown warpage on the head and block?
good for him..most kids his age would be on the cellphone to mommy to borrow a credit card for a tow truck..self sufficient and has the ability to do a quick temp repair to get himself home..of course its not the right way but if it works for a while till he can setup the time and resources to do it right than I call it a win..Hes obviously been watching Roadkill on youtube and its madness is rubbing off
+Buddy I never looked at the date of post..guess ya got me but you and at least someone else know what roadkill is and got the dumb lead ballon of a joke anyway. thats comforting
Yeah people who admit they don't know how to work on something and leave it to a professional instead of ruining it more by trying to fix it are stupid huh? You sound like a fucking retard
I was thinking the same thing. He was able to remove the head bolts with a cordless drill instead of an impact driver. Bolts probably weren't torqued at all.
no need to hate really.. i drive an STi and have had hondas before.. sure it sucks that his shit blew out, but at least he has the confidence and know how to fix it to get him home. Most the ppl on here woulda had to have mommy call a tow truck to get their car to the mechanic. plus thats one of the nice things about hondas.. everything is right there, easy to get to. it's his car in the end, so dunno why anyone needs to bash the dude.
Nick Brown hahaha you got that right! If I did, it would sure as hell take A LOT longer than a Honda engine bay that's for sure! Honda is simplicity at its finest. I've got a 2000 si that I gave my wife, and I would MUCH rather wrench on that!
MidWestBrick I would of call a tow truck . He does have balls but he is really stupid . He just started ripping things apart not knowing what the actual problem is or putting them in the correct order like the spark plug. but yeah it his car though. just gotta make that point
Its not hard to know how to take apart a motor and put it back together, and as far as I'm concerned, Doing it on the spot is a good idea as it is cheaper than a tow and doesn't risk doing more damage
Something tells me he's done that several times. And from the looks of it he's probably the only Honda technician that could actually make money doing head gaskets on those pieces of shit
It's awesome that he knows how to do it and that he had the tools to do it on the spot. All that aside, I wouldn't recommend changing a head gasket on a hot engine. Especially if it's an aluminum block and aluminum heads.
I mean it would probably works better when he changes it on hot engine. When engine is hot, the metal gets bigger, so when he put head gasket right now and screw it back together it will be tighter when it'll get cold so it should last longer.
Not a Honda fan really. But have to give this guy some credit for just saying "fuck it, I'll do this shit right NOW" lol. And for you haters, keep on just putting gas in your car and not knowing how the combustion engine even works.
***** Yeah, weird! I've only had 1 Honda, 1990 prelude si all wheel steering...now that's weird! Bought it off my neighbor for $300 after she threw the timing belt. Drove it for over a year with 3 bent valves, decent little car and fun to drive.
Sean Phillips FWD is inferior to RWD. I don't like Japanese cars, but if you're going to drive them, at least drive a Supra or Skyline. Not shitty civics. And despite your VTEC, you still can't make any power without blowing up your engine.
Teddy Shinozuka I personally drive German Engineering. I don't hate on any car really,i just give the respect they deserve. Vtec is actually pretty cool in the way it works and can make some good power and be durable if done correctly. I'm a true enthusiast and won't knock anyone's project or preference,although if they start getting tacky with autozone peel and stick stuff I might give them some advice.
that is not fixing it, it holds some 100 miles and it blows again if done like this guy.. to do that work properly u cant just pull head off and put a new gasket on it.. lol
Depends on why it blew. If your forced induction blew out the gasket because you didn't torque it down hard enough, that's one thing, but if you have a stock motor and blew it doing a burnout you probably warped the head at least a little bit.
they are probably laughing because a head gasket is serious business. you dont just swap it out like a radiator hose. its a machine shop trip at the bare minimum. or if your REALLY hard up for cash, you can do it ghetto style with a big sanding block to clean up the mating surfaces, assuming they didnt warp when you blew the gasket in the first place.
***** Dodge Challenger owner here, I bitch about ricers. Not all Hondas I bitch about but specifically the Civic I do - simply because so many boys run around with their civics with their cherry bombs, annoying everyone. I get it, the muffler makes it sound "cool", "better", might "free up some horsepower" even though most engines are designed with the backpressure in mind. But christ, who wants to hear a tiny engine rev? Like listening to a lawnmower.
Tiny engines, thats the price you usually have to pay for lightweight import, I never justify exhaust systems unless there is ATLEAST a bigger intake manifold. You can get some decent mufflers that don't have that ear shattering rattle, but thats not what this is about. It's about these stupid kids who don't know that all cars have potential, if someone out there made a hyundai with 1000+HP there is DEFINITELY no reason you can't do it with a honda engine which has one of the largest aftermarket options available.
***** Did you seriously just say that the Celica was great? xD 2003 Acura RSX owner here and I bitch about ricers because they give real car enthusiasts bad names. It's not about what car you drive or what style you prefer. It's how you act and how much you care for your car. If you care for your car then you wont put on a $100 body kit. A car can't be a ricer, it's the driver. I've seen plenty of Domestic ricers.
Obviously you don't know much about them. I can get a nice turbo kit for $1600. An ecu management for $600, and misc parts around $300. D series honda engines are shit. B series is when they started getting serious. K series is in my opinion their best motor. The k24's are beefy and can handle plenty of boost. K20's are good for high RPMs and can also handle a lot of boost, but have .4 less displacement. I'm not bashing on you either, i love the Focus ST's and I can't wait for the RS to come to America.
But guys....guys cmon.. its still a civic.. You can squeeze out over a thousand horsepower in these little 4 bangers, sure, but.. no matter how much you polish a turd, its still a turd.. What was it, Fast and furious that made boys go mad over the little 4 bangers? If you grab a nice base car, with good looks, a solid build, a good name and then spiff it out with turbos etc, hey, nice. But a civic?
I love all these 14 year old forza motorsport playing fanboys running their mouths when they've never taken a wrench to a car and probably never will lol
He looks like he knows what he is doing, kinda. He should have a torque wrench instead of the crappy impact and should actually let the engine cool down first or his head will warp when he try's to take it off
We don't know if this kid actually finished or towed the car away. Fucker could have had a great video for how to change a head gasket out on the road but instead I wasted my time watching a guy remove some screws.
to be honest he probably blew the head gasket by not doing it correctly to begin with. I see no torque wrench and unless he remembered the tightening sequence thats another issue. And those things are critical to doing a head gasket properly. He gets as far as removing some bolts for the two cam shafts. Which would concern me that he may not know to even time the engine which is another issue. Doing that kind of stuff on the fly is never a good idea because there are just too many things that can go wrong. You wouldn't have wanted to see the rest of the video unless you wanted to know how to do it wrong. And yes there is even a sequence to removing the bolts in which he totally ignored. Also obviously he has replaced the head gasket before. The problem is if it blew again then there is a reason it blew again. Most common not doing it right to begin with. I can guarantee if you asked him how to measure the 9 points to check for flatness on the head he would look at you like you had a 3rd head. You almost always have to machine or lap an aluminum head when changing a head gasket. Lapping is the more precise method so long as it is done on granite or glass that has absolute flatness. I got a pontiac head to 0.0015 flatness all the way across including between the cylinder walls. As a result the gasket out lasted the car. The frame rotted before the gasket did (Northern car).
evilcowboy Dude stop you are making these guys heads pop. All they know is if they see bolts then you loosen them then fuck shit up then tighten them and then say they fully built the motor... lol
Brian Langdon lol very true. Seen a many cracked heads from over tightening. Also just saw a cracked bolt hole from a starter being held on with 1 bolt (95 sentra) after it snapped the starter fell away from the top of the tranny and would not engage the flywheel. You could hear it when the kid tried to start it just grinding away against the teeth on the flywheel. Too bad it was a new flywheel and clutch. Yeah children shouldn't touch big boy toys lmfao.
evilcowboy If it makes you feel better, my neighbour managed to flood her fuel-injected car. She was that stupid. Also, I hope the guy with that shitty Integra has no friends. That shit is gonna be the death of him.
Hey you all ! great video I was just wondering it would of been nice to how gets cam sprockets off with out taken off the timing belt and timing cover can somebody else show us or is just time consuming thanks tk.com
I once changed a sump gasket and water pump on a Mk1 Cortina GT engine in the hold of a ferry from Spain to Morocco in total darkness, with only a borrowed AAA keyring-torch to illuminate the proceedings. I admire this guy... sometimes there is NO other option. BRAVO... hope he made it home... He must have a hot date... There is no other reason for working this fast.
Jhon KafirB Did they look clean???? Dose he take care of it?? No one who takes care of their motor leave shit like CAM BEARING CAP BOLTS missing... I see atleast two of them non-existent as soon as he pulls the valve cover...
hmong azn son exactly. And they won't even spend a hours looking into how to build and maintain they own stuff. They'll just keep riding maybe look at a few race clips ( bs)but never really get into the research side. But I realized just like one of the other guy say the new school millennium's(some not all) and old school fart were brought up different. They had to fix things on there own(less shops and rights of passage as a man). nowadays some of those parents haven't taught their kids it and those kids have no desire because video games and everything else made it so simple even with RUclips. People have no desire to retain it because you can look it up at anytime.😔 let the others laugh theirs one in ever bunch( but some are even envious)
If you relieve the tension while the engines hot it's at a higher risk of warping the head. It's a waste of time, energy, and money to replace something if you're not going to do it properly the first time.
Did anyone else notice that every other camshaft cap bolt was broke off? If say that isn't his first rodeo with the head gasket, bad thing is that it prolly keeps blowing because he isn't using new tty head bolts and I'm sure the head has been warped for a long time and he hasn't taken it to a machine shop to be shaved so this will inevitably happen again
@big balls999 either learn from someone who knows better or keep doing the same stupid stuff. It is true stupid is as stupid does. No disrespect in that.
Esperanza R. What happened to them? Is he not under hood anymore or not doing himself? You cant be so awesome then say something like this but not say where the good ol days went! I hate you so much rn!
OnlineBackupServices He knows what he is doing? He is removing the camshafts of the vehicle while the head gasket is located between the cylinder head and engine block.
well personaly as a street racer when ni bprder gasket kits i always order a second kit just incase sonthing needs replacing on the spot incase somthing messes up
To all those saying that this kid deserves to be respected because hes fixing his car while everyone else stand around and watches you should pay attention. First off look at the camshaft caps, half of them are only held on by one bolt, while the other is completely missing and there is no need to pull the cams in the first place. When he pulls the valve cover his oil is smoking indicating that it overheated big time, pulling the head while its hot is without a doubt going to cause it to warp and his new gasket is not going to do anything at all.
@@onefastegcoupe not saying that the dude was right to start ripping his head off immediately, cause he's not, should let it cool down and do this at home or in a shop not a parking lot. Easy way to get hurt imo
@@freakymrqyeah my 2jz is like that and so is my s54, you have to remove the cams for proper access to the head bolts. The m3 was pretty easy to get the head off and back on but the sc300 you have to have a thin wall 1/2 deep well socket for those head studs on the 2jz I will never forget that for all the trips it made me take. But a lot of Honda engines you don’t need to pull the cams out of when you take the head off, my friend used to have a boosted d series civic and we pulled the head off and did the head gasket without removing the cam but that also cause they’re was a lot more clearance since it’s only a single cam
Anyone who actually knows what the fuck there doing knows that he's doing it correctly....well the fast way anyways. And about starting with the belt.....you can reach the timing belt tensioner from the side through the cover with out removing anything. 1) Set TDC or mark belt and cam gears. 2) Valve cover 3) Remove cams 4) Disconnect everything from intake manifold. 5) Remove head and intake together. 6) Clean block replace gasket ....2 hours later RIDE.
The rocker arm assembly comes off in one piece no need to touch the valve adjustment screws. However now would be the perfect time to check the clearances.
Johnathan B I wouldn't give him credit for what i saw. It was ballz but definitely not professional grade work. A blown head gasket can quickly lead to other problems, so slapping another gasket there isn't make it all better..
I love it, everyone else was standing around talking their intelligent nonsense and this kid jumps in to do a major engine job before the fresh steam even clears. THat is the no nonsense way to do it.
its a head gasket man!!! - you wait till the engine cools and is one temperature before starting if you want to do it correctly and you have to prep car
***** Amen to that! Removing aluminum parts while hot is akin to opening Pandora's box...It's just asking for trouble. Any internal stresses held prisoner by the fasteners will be given free reign to 'stretch out their muscles'. Put an aluminum piston on a baking sheet and put it in the oven and watch what happens. Out of the confines of cylinder bore, it will distort in directions it was never allowed to before. Probably won't be visible to the naked eye (but sometimes is!) so mic/dial it before, and then after it cools...you won't believe how different your 'after' readings differ from the 'before' readings.
Ricer this ricer that... Who gives a shitt. If that kid puts on a fart can or a GT wing spoiler on his civic.... His loss not yours lol. Weird guys on here
The threads in the head for the cam cap bolts aren't going to last to long either if he keeps jumping straight to untorquing them without taking tension off the timing belt first...
and most of his parts probably didnt line up exactly when he put it back together. probably warped most of the bolts from the heat. i would've let it cool down first. then again i have a v8 and can make it home on 4 cylinder. just pull the spark plug out of the affected bank.
R Fox You would be stupid not to resurface the head if the gasket blew... And from the looks of it, it blew due to heat hence the steam/smoke. If it was a compression blow, then probably not.
R Fox Was calling someone a dildo really that necessary though? Obviously you have a strong dislike of them. Maybe cause it's the only way your girlfriend can get off.

So any tuner should have all spare parts back in the trunk and able to fix head gasket on the spot? lol. Nothing wrong with maintaince on a proper garage. Pay a little more but get more.
+KronosSlots never said that. Apart from the fact that they totally rip you off for easy work, and the fact that most tuners will then try and brag about it even though they've never laid a finger on it.
I drive a RS4 B5 with 440HP. It's for 2 years already under maintaince at my garage. If he would have ripped me off, i would know.
Do you know that person to say that he cant afford it?
Subie owner blows head gasket pulls engine jack out of trunk lol
I'll have you know. Subaru's never blow head gaskets. In parking lots.
Most kids his age would be crying and calling mommy and daddy. This kid is the man. Rolled up his sleeves and gotr done. Impressive. Wish more kids learn hands on skills.
Call this kid a ricer all you want... But at least he knows how to work on his own damn car, unlike the hotshot in the $200,000 RocketBunny GT-R who doesn't even know how to change a tire...
krocialblack You can't fix modern cars once they go bad they are tossed this isn't grandpa's 1st car.
krocialblack so just because you have money to buy a nice car you have to know how to fix it your self 😂😂😂. You got jokes.
Dream Team real car enthusiasts know how to work on there own cars ..wanna be car fools don’t know jack shit
seethat M yes your right but just because he drives a nice car it doesn’t mean he should know how to fix it maybe they like the look of it or the speed or it. When you buy a home they don’t expect you to know how to build it. That’s like saying I’m a fool because I own a big home but don’t know how to do basic reapers on it or build it. You catch my drift. Yeah I hate wanna be car people too but I don’t hate on people who drive nice cars and don’t know anything about them.
Dream Team I understand your point of view I’m just talking about the people that have nice cars and act like a know it all and hate on every other car because it’s slower ...but others that don’t know it but just wanna have a clean car that’s alright because you can always learn about it ...that is alright if your only trying to learn more but when it’s in a situation you don’t know shit and you act like you know it all and you try to be a know it all but you aren’t that’s what triggers me lol
I love how all the "experts" are talking in the background and he mostly ignores them and keeps working.
Arx Fortis agreed
Arx Fortis yes I love the guy who tells him that he's going to need some water now! Thank you captain obvious! Hahaha
"You might want to put some water in it." AND CRACK THE BLOCK, IDIOT??
Travis A ok two points
1) some people call anti-freeze/coolant water
2) the only way he would crack the block is if he leaves the plain water in there through the freezing weather.
Seeing as how it looks like it's summer time in this video, the risk of cracking the block is slim to none.
Yes! Give this young man an award for initiative and motivation. Focus too! Way to go, dude!
Kudos to this kid for being able to work on his car,the rest of those “mechanics” would have just called mommy and daddy or a tow truck
Think he even painted the car in the parking lot.
dfelixrx7 probly sold it there too
Thrishen Pillay yes and i build party busses and limos
i think he rebuilt the transmission on the spot too
Lmao
@@Operator-fq2fn guys he’s building a mansion in the parking lot lol
I have high respect for someone who knows their car.
A lot of people have their work done for them. This guy is a true car enthusiast.
He is a car enthusiast because he can take shit off? If the video was longer, maybe, but so far all that's been proven is that he can remove bolts with a drill.
Mike - ...and if I asked my three year old where to go to change my brakes, he would know where to go. That doesn't mean shit. ANYBODY can take a car apart. Doesn't prove that he knows anything.
Mike - Did I comment on the title of the video, or did I comment on this thread? Yep... you sure showed me.
Mike ignore him. His argument is that a three year old could change brakes, but let me tell you something. Anyone can take shit off but diagnosis is a talent.
SPEED_ TRAP very true
This guy has dedication. How many of those guys watching him could fix the gasket on the spot?
None of them cause it's a stupid idea to change a head gasket on the spot. The motor is still hot so you can guarantee his head is warped when he removes it, He has a crowd around him so it's pressure on him and easy to break concentration, he didnt mark his Cams so when he puts it back together the timing is off, and why is he even going to a car show with a new head gasket (Let's hope he also brought new internal bolts cause they must be replaced too because they're tty bolts) know his shit is fucked in the first place??. I give him an A for effort but you don't do jobs like that on the street. I know it sucks to be that guy that has to have his car towed out the lot at a meet but he should have taken that L and just have it towed back home
I hope, at least, it got him home. Them torque-yields are a pain in the butt sometimes, but honestly, I'd rather bodge together something that'll work for a while and maybe cause damage to get home rather than have to spend a lot of money for a towwy.
GeneCARRASCA only the dumb ones will
Even if he does all the work himself except for milling the block and head, the price of the milling work plus a replacement head will run him about a grand, conservatively. The tow home would cost about $75 if he is less than an hour away. And judging by the crowd and apparent location I am guessing he is less than ten miles from home. Personally, I would not "bodge" the job in order to look more manly, risking a warped or cracked head or block and minimum of a grand in parts and highly specialized labor (possibly thousands more, or just a replacement vehicle, seeing how that car probably would not merit thousands on a new head) when the car can be safely trailered home for under a hundred bucks. Having big balls is not quite the same as being a complete and utter fool to impress your friends.
Holton 345 u guys for grt when ur young u dont care. U make it work and trade parts. U can get a jdm motor for 2k so y not fix it. This car will b run into the ground im sure
I love the feeling he has when he knows how everything works and comes apart. Great experience
I remember watching this back around 2012 and was blown away by this. Nowdays I'm still impressed because now I have Hondas and I may be quick with a d series or f series sohc while its cold but this dude is amazing for being able to do all that while its piping hot.
I'm amazed if he can get the head bolts out. Twice I have had 2 just immediately round off even with a new 6pt socket at the junk yards. Now I carry a set of nut grabber ones as well
What a legend. My car has been in the garage for 3 weeks because I'm mentally preparing myself
Nugenrules mine was for five years. 94 accord. Total dope. The head is right there like his I didn’t know tho.
😂
Hes a legend cuz he knows how to unbolt a cam cover?are you for real.he then proceeds to unscrew cam carriers whilst his cam belt is still on.this guy is no where near doing a head gasket on spot.not saying it cant be done but first he would run out of day light and second he would have to take head away for pressure testing and possible skimming.find it hard to believe that people who are car nuts actually know fuck all about car that this impressed you.
5 years later your car is still in the garage.
@@JeffMcDuffie72MeridianGate did not expect to be attacked this morning 😭
What a Tease, I was ready to see the whole video.
lowkey lol
Especially in the 3 minutes it was recorded. I was anxious to to something really cool or epic fail.
I like how everyone is amazed at the most simplest thing on earth, he knows what he's doing big deal lmao
Respect to u bro..u know ur beast...not like others outside just talking like the r king of tuners...salute...
We cant call this guy a ricer. He actually knows how to work on a engine
Blorox Cleach hmmm common sense would tell me that you would never work on a hot engine, cause it increases your risk of stripping out bolt threads. But at least he knows how to take it apart, and I don’t actually know how hot the engine is, and judging by how he isn’t screaming at grabbing the bolts, yeah it’s not that hot, but it could be hot enough to strip out some threads maybe?
Clorox bleach is the best user on youtube, salute. Great taste in videos.
How much could he know if he's loosening the head bolts on a hot engine and he drives around with cam cap bolts stripped and missing and he is reassembling an engine with unknown warpage on the head and block?
Removing an aluminum head on a motor that hot will result in severe warpage and thus another hg failure soon down the road.
*an
Those smart guys commenting probably can't even turn a wrench.
My Videos - Is that that star shaped thing that takes nails out?
My Videos lol "it probably needs water". yeah pull that cap off while it's boilin bud
Wrench=spoon?
I'm left handed and my friend said I bought the wrong wrenches. Do you know where to buy a lefthanded set??
10 years later this is still impressive
love how he just pays no one any mind and just does his shitt.. i respect that so much
good for him..most kids his age would be on the cellphone to mommy to borrow a credit card for a tow truck..self sufficient and has the ability to do a quick temp repair to get himself home..of course its not the right way but if it works for a while till he can setup the time and resources to do it right than I call it a win..Hes obviously been watching Roadkill on youtube and its madness is rubbing off
Roadkill is the shit!
+funshootin1 Yes, the guy in a video from 2010 was able to do a repair job thanks to a show that began in 2012.
+Buddy I never looked at the date of post..guess ya got me but you and at least someone else know what roadkill is and got the dumb lead ballon of a joke anyway. thats comforting

Yeah people who admit they don't know how to work on something and leave it to a professional instead of ruining it more by trying to fix it are stupid huh? You sound like a fucking retard
Legend is, he's still there fixing it till this day
Lmao!!!!
LOL
1 year later, he still at it. this time during a high pursuit.
Lol
LMFAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO CMON MAN! I'm in the library.
I love how all his cam cap bolts are all hand tight 😂 same probably goes for the head bolts , no wonder the headgasket blew lol
Motor is hot
I was thinking the same thing. He was able to remove the head bolts with a cordless drill instead of an impact driver. Bolts probably weren't torqued at all.
@@HelterSkelter117 you can see he crack them loose with a ratchet before using the drill/impact
@@HelterSkelter117 to be fair though they weren't nearly as tight as they should be but the ease of getting all that off could be be due to heat
Ive seen this video many times and always wondered what type of person would do this, 11 years later, i got the answer, my brother is this crazy lmaoo
This actually makes me happy to see. Young man knows his car. Good on you.
Now that's a hot swap...
My car’s gasket is getting ready to blow any second and meanwhile I’m freaking out, this man deals with it like if it’s a daily chore 😂
I got mad respect for a guy is willing to warp his head as soon as he pulls those head bolts
no need to hate really.. i drive an STi and have had hondas before.. sure it sucks that his shit blew out, but at least he has the confidence and know how to fix it to get him home. Most the ppl on here woulda had to have mommy call a tow truck to get their car to the mechanic.
plus thats one of the nice things about hondas.. everything is right there, easy to get to.
it's his car in the end, so dunno why anyone needs to bash the dude.
U wouldn't be tearing an sti apart like that... Huge cluster fuck in those engine bays
Nick Brown hahaha you got that right! If I did, it would sure as hell take A LOT longer than a Honda engine bay that's for sure! Honda is simplicity at its finest. I've got a 2000 si that I gave my wife, and I would MUCH rather wrench on that!
MidWestBrick I would of call a tow truck . He does have balls but he is really stupid . He just started ripping things apart not knowing what the actual problem is or putting them in the correct order like the spark plug. but yeah it his car though. just gotta make that point
This kid should have called mommy because he doesn't know what he is doing.
Atleast let the engine cool down before you take it apart and fuck it up.
Aye he had to take that blown head gasket that he apparently known lol . Time is money haha
looks like he's done this a couple times
Was thinking same thing or maybe he is mechanic
Its not hard to know how to take apart a motor and put it back together,
and as far as I'm concerned, Doing it on the spot is a good idea as it
is cheaper than a tow and doesn't risk doing more damage
uncleweirdbeard plus you get to leave the mess for someone else.
Am i the only one surprised seeing him take the smoking hot engine apart with his bear hands?
Something tells me he's done that several times. And from the looks of it he's probably the only Honda technician that could actually make money doing head gaskets on those pieces of shit
11 years later, I’m still watching telling people how dope this kid is lmao!!
It's awesome that he knows how to do it and that he had the tools to do it on the spot. All that aside, I wouldn't recommend changing a head gasket on a hot engine. Especially if it's an aluminum block and aluminum heads.
I mean it would probably works better when he changes it on hot engine. When engine is hot, the metal gets bigger, so when he put head gasket right now and screw it back together it will be tighter when it'll get cold so it should last longer.
@@danielkowalski1432 It's supposed to be torqued to spec, not tighter the better. In fact, he probably blown the gasket due to improper assembly.
@@deedle6073 my thoughts exactly.
Not a Honda fan really. But have to give this guy some credit for just saying "fuck it, I'll do this shit right NOW" lol. And for you haters, keep on just putting gas in your car and not knowing how the combustion engine even works.
***** Yeah, weird! I've only had 1 Honda, 1990 prelude si all wheel steering...now that's weird! Bought it off my neighbor for $300 after she threw the timing belt. Drove it for over a year with 3 bent valves, decent little car and fun to drive.
Sean Phillips FWD is inferior to RWD. I don't like Japanese cars, but if you're going to drive them, at least drive a Supra or Skyline. Not shitty civics. And despite your VTEC, you still can't make any power without blowing up your engine.
Teddy Shinozuka I personally drive German Engineering. I don't hate on any car really,i just give the respect they deserve. Vtec is actually pretty cool in the way it works and can make some good power and be durable if done correctly. I'm a true enthusiast and won't knock anyone's project or preference,although if they start getting tacky with autozone peel and stick stuff I might give them some advice.

These guts laughing at him for fixing his own car . But hey atleast he can
that is not fixing it, it holds some 100 miles and it blows again if done like this guy.. to do that work properly u cant just pull head off and put a new gasket on it.. lol
ummmm yeah u can?? as long as u didnt crack or warp the head especially on a honda b18b1 those motors run forever
Depends on why it blew. If your forced induction blew out the gasket because you didn't torque it down hard enough, that's one thing, but if you have a stock motor and blew it doing a burnout you probably warped the head at least a little bit.
Lol just torque it down 10lbs harder it will seal..
they are probably laughing because a head gasket is serious business. you dont just swap it out like a radiator hose. its a machine shop trip at the bare minimum. or if your REALLY hard up for cash, you can do it ghetto style with a big sanding block to clean up the mating surfaces, assuming they didnt warp when you blew the gasket in the first place.
Most of the people bitching about it being a honda more than likely don't even own a car in general, or have a drivers license either.
***** Dodge Challenger owner here, I bitch about ricers. Not all Hondas I bitch about but specifically the Civic I do - simply because so many boys run around with their civics with their cherry bombs, annoying everyone.
I get it, the muffler makes it sound "cool", "better", might "free up some horsepower" even though most engines are designed with the backpressure in mind. But christ, who wants to hear a tiny engine rev? Like listening to a lawnmower.
Tiny engines, thats the price you usually have to pay for lightweight import, I never justify exhaust systems unless there is ATLEAST a bigger intake manifold. You can get some decent mufflers that don't have that ear shattering rattle, but thats not what this is about. It's about these stupid kids who don't know that all cars have potential, if someone out there made a hyundai with 1000+HP there is DEFINITELY no reason you can't do it with a honda engine which has one of the largest aftermarket options available.
***** Did you seriously just say that the Celica was great? xD 2003 Acura RSX owner here and I bitch about ricers because they give real car enthusiasts bad names. It's not about what car you drive or what style you prefer. It's how you act and how much you care for your car. If you care for your car then you wont put on a $100 body kit. A car can't be a ricer, it's the driver. I've seen plenty of Domestic ricers.
Obviously you don't know much about them. I can get a nice turbo kit for $1600. An ecu management for $600, and misc parts around $300. D series honda engines are shit. B series is when they started getting serious. K series is in my opinion their best motor. The k24's are beefy and can handle plenty of boost. K20's are good for high RPMs and can also handle a lot of boost, but have .4 less displacement.
I'm not bashing on you either, i love the Focus ST's and I can't wait for the RS to come to America.
But guys....guys cmon.. its still a civic.. You can squeeze out over a thousand horsepower in these little 4 bangers, sure, but.. no matter how much you polish a turd, its still a turd..
What was it, Fast and furious that made boys go mad over the little 4 bangers?
If you grab a nice base car, with good looks, a solid build, a good name and then spiff it out with turbos etc, hey, nice.
But a civic?
I like how everyone comes out and they all just stand there instead of helping him.

I love all these 14 year old forza motorsport playing fanboys running their mouths when they've never taken a wrench to a car and probably never will lol
Most probably never even took a lug nut off of a tire either
gotta start somewhere. maybe a parking lot isnt the best place though..
He looks like he knows what he is doing, kinda. He should have a torque wrench instead of the crappy impact and should actually let the engine cool down first or his head will warp when he try's to take it off
chris fitch that's not an impact.
chris fitch and you don't use a torque wrench to break a nut.
Since when do you have to take apart the valvetrain to get to the head gasket? Am I missing something?
This guy is truly a legend.
overnight parts from japan couldnt even fix this lol.
HAHAHA this made me laugh so hard!
haha glad i got some laughs out of it :)

i dont get it... lol
Hahaha good one dude
hahahah
We don't know if this kid actually finished or towed the car away. Fucker could have had a great video for how to change a head gasket out on the road but instead I wasted my time watching a guy remove some screws.
It's the easiest shit ever, him changing it isn't even a big deal.
to be honest he probably blew the head gasket by not doing it correctly to begin with.
I see no torque wrench and unless he remembered the tightening sequence thats another issue. And those things are critical to doing a head gasket properly.
He gets as far as removing some bolts for the two cam shafts. Which would concern me that he may not know to even time the engine which is another issue.
Doing that kind of stuff on the fly is never a good idea because there are just too many things that can go wrong.
You wouldn't have wanted to see the rest of the video unless you wanted to know how to do it wrong.
And yes there is even a sequence to removing the bolts in which he totally ignored.
Also obviously he has replaced the head gasket before. The problem is if it blew again then there is a reason it blew again. Most common not doing it right to begin with. I can guarantee if you asked him how to measure the 9 points to check for flatness on the head he would look at you like you had a 3rd head. You almost always have to machine or lap an aluminum head when changing a head gasket.
Lapping is the more precise method so long as it is done on granite or glass that has absolute flatness. I got a pontiac head to 0.0015 flatness all the way across including between the cylinder walls. As a result the gasket out lasted the car. The frame rotted before the gasket did (Northern car).
evilcowboy Dude stop you are making these guys heads pop. All they know is if they see bolts then you loosen them then fuck shit up then tighten them and then say they fully built the motor... lol
Brian Langdon
lol very true. Seen a many cracked heads from over tightening. Also just saw a cracked bolt hole from a starter being held on with 1 bolt (95 sentra) after it snapped the starter fell away from the top of the tranny and would not engage the flywheel. You could hear it when the kid tried to start it just grinding away against the teeth on the flywheel. Too bad it was a new flywheel and clutch. Yeah children shouldn't touch big boy toys lmfao.
evilcowboy If it makes you feel better, my neighbour managed to flood her fuel-injected car. She was that stupid.
Also, I hope the guy with that shitty Integra has no friends. That shit is gonna be the death of him.

Hey you all ! great video I was just wondering it would of been nice to how gets cam sprockets off with out taken off the timing belt and timing cover can somebody else show us or is just time consuming thanks tk.com
I once changed a sump gasket and water pump on a Mk1 Cortina GT engine in the hold of a ferry from Spain to Morocco in total darkness, with only a borrowed AAA keyring-torch to illuminate the proceedings. I admire this guy... sometimes there is NO other option. BRAVO... hope he made it home... He must have a hot date... There is no other reason for working this fast.
I think it's funny that this came up on my RUclips suggestions... In 2023. 😂😂
Based on how shitty that Integra looks I'm going to go out on a limb and say it wasn't put together properly in the first place.
Lol I agree
At least those camshafts looked clean...
Shitty car but the kid takes care of it.
Jhon KafirB
Did they look clean???? Dose he take care of it?? No one who takes care of their motor leave shit like CAM BEARING CAP BOLTS missing... I see atleast two of them non-existent as soon as he pulls the valve cover...
Michael G LOL I just notice the missing bolts...haha
guy probably never even heard of a torque wrench!
i want the whole vid
Now that's a trooper.. No hesitation, no complaining, just determination and action..
That integra still sits there till this day
if he still went home with it I give him mad props cuz most of these car people won't be able to do what he doing
hmong azn son exactly. And they won't even spend a hours looking into how to build and maintain they own stuff. They'll just keep riding maybe look at a few race clips ( bs)but never really get into the research side. But I realized just like one of the other guy say the new school millennium's(some not all) and old school fart were brought up different. They had to fix things on there own(less shops and rights of passage as a man). nowadays some of those parents haven't taught their kids it and those kids have no desire because video games and everything else made it so simple even with RUclips. People have no desire to retain it because you can look it up at anytime.😔 let the others laugh theirs one in ever bunch( but some are even envious)
If you relieve the tension while the engines hot it's at a higher risk of warping the head. It's a waste of time, energy, and money to replace something if you're not going to do it properly the first time.
I know mine woulda been towed home or to a shop for sure lol
Thats a REAL HotRodder, fix it on the spot no matter when or where. Hats off to ya arbachu not many of us left doing things the old ways.
Legend has it...he's still in the same parking lot fixing the integra today..
Impressed me.
Finally a video recommended that I like.
At least he works on his own car...Unlike most of the people there.
Eryk Kurzawa totally agree!
Did anyone else notice that every other camshaft cap bolt was broke off? If say that isn't his first rodeo with the head gasket, bad thing is that it prolly keeps blowing because he isn't using new tty head bolts and I'm sure the head has been warped for a long time and he hasn't taken it to a machine shop to be shaved so this will inevitably happen again
But hes getting home tho
Thought exactly the same
Can of stop leak will fix it fine.
@big balls999 either learn from someone who knows better or keep doing the same stupid stuff. It is true stupid is as stupid does. No disrespect in that.

Let's all stand and watch...Sheesh...help the guy!
Hell no. That shit is fucking hot. I'd be glad to help but only when it's cold.
But considering its an Integra I think it's a waste of time.
the guy knows what he's doing. How can anyone help?
OnlineBackupServices yeah I guess...other people would probably slow him down...going like a madman..lol
OnlineBackupServices He knows what he is doing? He is removing the camshafts of the vehicle while the head gasket is located between the cylinder head and engine block.
Shane Smith you do know on the b18a1 under the cam shafts would be the head bolts so it would make perfect sense to pull the cams to pull the head lol
Working on your ride is the best feeling ever
I ate a whole pack of English muffins while I was on my way to meet my parents for breakfast
Respect
Does the breakfast know you cheated on it with the muffins?
How come he drives around with a spare head gasket and all the tools to change it?
It probably happens all the time. Maybe has a second b18 in his trunk as well 😇
+Knobov Sossidge i think he faked it for attention
+Knobov Sossidge because honda
+Killer Imp because warped head
well personaly as a street racer when ni bprder gasket kits i always order a second kit just incase sonthing needs replacing on the spot incase somthing messes up
To all those saying that this kid deserves to be respected because hes fixing his car while everyone else stand around and watches you should pay attention. First off look at the camshaft caps, half of them are only held on by one bolt, while the other is completely missing and there is no need to pull the cams in the first place. When he pulls the valve cover his oil is smoking indicating that it overheated big time, pulling the head while its hot is without a doubt going to cause it to warp and his new gasket is not going to do anything at all.
to pull the head on my mr2 you have to remove the cams to access two of the head bolts
@@freakymrq yeah n it gon be steamin either way a little from blowby from headgasket failure
@@onefastegcoupe not saying that the dude was right to start ripping his head off immediately, cause he's not, should let it cool down and do this at home or in a shop not a parking lot. Easy way to get hurt imo
@@freakymrqyeah my 2jz is like that and so is my s54, you have to remove the cams for proper access to the head bolts. The m3 was pretty easy to get the head off and back on but the sc300 you have to have a thin wall 1/2 deep well socket for those head studs on the 2jz I will never forget that for all the trips it made me take. But a lot of Honda engines you don’t need to pull the cams out of when you take the head off, my friend used to have a boosted d series civic and we pulled the head off and did the head gasket without removing the cam but that also cause they’re was a lot more clearance since it’s only a single cam
watched this years ago, its a classic for me, hero level!
nobody can say he isn’t a gear head now🤣 HE HOLDS THE TITLE
Anyone who actually knows what the fuck there doing knows that he's doing it correctly....well the fast way anyways. And about starting with the belt.....you can reach the timing belt tensioner from the side through the cover with out removing anything.
1) Set TDC or mark belt and cam gears.
2) Valve cover
3) Remove cams
4) Disconnect everything from intake manifold.
5) Remove head and intake together.
6) Clean block replace gasket ....2 hours later RIDE.
then after you put it together you have to check valve clearances.
You can but clearances are not change when you remove the rocker arm assembly.
Johnathan B Really? usually i always have to change the clearances. I must be doing something wrong....
The rocker arm assembly comes off in one piece no need to touch the valve adjustment screws. However now would be the perfect time to check the clearances.
Johnathan B I wouldn't give him credit for what i saw. It was ballz but definitely not professional grade work. A blown head gasket can quickly lead to other problems, so slapping another gasket there isn't make it all better..
I love it, everyone else was standing around talking their intelligent nonsense and this kid jumps in to do a major engine job before the fresh steam even clears. THat is the no nonsense way to do it.
its a head gasket man!!! - you wait till the engine cools and is one temperature before starting if you want to do it correctly and you have to prep car
***** Amen to that! Removing aluminum parts while hot is akin to opening Pandora's box...It's just asking for trouble. Any internal stresses held prisoner by the fasteners will be given free reign to 'stretch out their muscles'. Put an aluminum piston on a baking sheet and put it in the oven and watch what happens. Out of the confines of cylinder bore, it will distort in directions it was never allowed to before. Probably won't be visible to the naked eye (but sometimes is!) so mic/dial it before, and then after it cools...you won't believe how different your 'after' readings differ from the 'before' readings.
He's a legend most people couldnt even get the valve over off that fast
Built not bought! Real boss ! Respect the man
Ricer this ricer that... Who gives a shitt. If that kid puts on a fart can or a GT wing spoiler on his civic.... His loss not yours lol. Weird guys on here
Bouge laal You are a weird guy
1tokeover lol I still get more bitches then u
Bouge laal lol
***** What do you drive or aspire to?
***** Lol lets run em. My cars just an old rice burner.
Yea very enthusiastic but probably will blow another without resurfacing the head. End of the day he still gets his car home this way.
yup u know wat ur talking about..thats exactly right i had machine shop experience so i can vouch
X'D
The threads in the head for the cam cap bolts aren't going to last to long either if he keeps jumping straight to untorquing them without taking tension off the timing belt first...
integras are gay
and most of his parts probably didnt line up exactly when he put it back together. probably warped most of the bolts from the heat. i would've let it cool down first. then again i have a v8 and can make it home on 4 cylinder. just pull the spark plug out of the affected bank.
My dad did this when I was a kid in the 80s. Head gasket went while out shopping, replaced the gasket in the multi-storey car park
He's got my respect. Any carguy who truly loves his car and what it brings knows what I mean
Shocking, a Honda with a blown head gasket
+Retroman Porbably running too much boost from that v-tec, yo
+Drcool52 Not trying to be a dick or anything, but V-tec doesn't produce boost.
red7493 I know...thats the joke.
+Drcool52 nah bro he let his gasket fluid get low then his header bearing went out on his vtec and fuckled the whole project
KSI SubSonic Yeah, I was thinking the same thing.
legend says he's still in the parking lot changing his head gasket. 😂
i can confirm that i drove past there today and he is still trying to get it right
+Billy Bohanno lol
seen him and gave him a beer xD
Legend says you're stealing comments to this day
Legend says this comment was posted over a year before yours
He got that skill but not that money. So for those of you who called him ricer. Get a life
11 years later people still talking about this kid in other channels. He's a God among tuners.
I hope he brought a machine shop with him to resurface the head with...
TheAssassin111 probably why he knows how to change it so well, this definitely isn't his first one.
R Fox You would be stupid not to resurface the head if the gasket blew... And from the looks of it, it blew due to heat hence the steam/smoke. If it was a compression blow, then probably not.
R Fox I hope you know he's just fucking with ya.
R Fox Was calling someone a dildo really that necessary though? Obviously you have a strong dislike of them. Maybe cause it's the only way your girlfriend can get off.
***** Thanx, Brah.
Lol at the master mechanics in the comments
I like this young man he knows his way around a engine my youngest son probably can’t check level of the oil
No one is built like this anymore. He defines the “Built not bought” slogan. Legend!
Will never understand why people bash honda. I'm a subie guy but I like all cars. It's cars people not politics! stop arguing about which is better and drive what you love
Lomo Honda’s to Subaru’s seem to be the natural progression lol, I had an ‘06 RSX-S and now I have a JDM ‘01 twin-turbo Legacy wagon
Exactly I'm a muscle car lover but I respect the import and tuners the ones that know what they are doing or actually want to learn
Lomo I’m a KDM fan and I agree 100%. I don’t hate anything, it’s all about preference.
Lomo thank you I constantly say this
Lomo
Probably because Honda suxks. My brother has one and he's always fixing shit on it and the electric acts up too. Fuck Honda
at least he knows what the fuck hes doing
lol he doesn't know shit lol, he's not supposed to touch it while it's hot because it's going to affect the parts later when they cool.
So being able to undo a few bolts is knowing what you're doing?
Danielle Smith meanwhile you'd panic and become all types of pissed off, I put 20 bucks he knows more than you about cars
letthebutthurtbegin I know removing a head while it's still hot is asking for all kinds of trouble.
letthebutthurtbegin dont fucking argue this when you obviously dont know the first thing about taking apart a motor.
Real man would have done it with the engine running.....
Gordon McMillan yes well can’t run with no spark plugs now can ya? Well shit.......
TheWhiteBuster whoa sarcasm alert.....
You would be surprised on how some people think. Wouldn't surprise me anymore.
Oregano lol you mad
Lol
i know this is 12 years old...i have a 1992 honda accord and i keep my all my tools with me much respect hope he got it fixed
