@@Snezit1 Nah dude honestly im not a environmentalist of any kind but spilling oil really is a horrible idea. Not only does it kill all the live in the ground nearly forever, it also poisons the water you drink.

omg, engine running pretty much dry, Jack desperatly trying to fill up oil while the cams are shooting it right back out, oil still dripping and Alex asking as calm as day "What's the torque again?" absolutly killed me xD also: Baby Oil is pretty much just mineral oil which is pretty much brake fluid which is almost like hydraulic fluid which is oil, more or less, so yeah, totally reasonable and absolutly obvious
Got to thank this channel as it is inspired me into working/messing as around with my car. 12 months ago topping up oil was about the extent of my mechanical skills. Just recently changed rear silencer, anti roll bar bushings and link's, changed transmission fluid and completed my third oil change. Next plan is the brake's pad change and fluid bleed.

holy hell, how on earth can an engine survive that much! I'd love to see you take one of the things the engine seemed to be running fine on, put it in a working car and go like 100 miles
Love to see this with different fuel options.. I know from experience white spirit works, in a mark 5 escort 1.8 zetec. Cooking oil can work. What else? Milk? Water? Lighter fuel? Do it for 'Science'!!
I've almost done this by accident, I put my car on my ramps, drained the oil then when it was time to refill i thought it will be easier to do so with the car back on the ground so I started it up and reversed it off the ramps with no oil in it 🙈🙈
I did this with my Volvo.. except I didn't drain the oil. I bought it just after it was MOTd, and was told it was serviced just before MOT. Drove it for 8k, went to change the oil and less than 100ml of oil came out.. No idea how long it was like that for but I'm glad I didn't drive it much further. Threw some oil in it and I've put 70k on the clock since then.
i know a German Channel who did Similar to a lot of cars, they put nearly everything you can thing of in the Engine as an replacemant for the Oil. From Diesel, over Nutella to Soap. Its always Funny
Could be hydro locked if the milk got past the rings Pull the glow plugs spin the engine for 30 seconds to evacuate the cylinders put the glow plugs back in there's a chance it would start
You should try to rebuild the engine cheapest way possible, like putting new bearings on the worn crankshaft so it would spin again (or not), don't use a torque wrench etc
My mate had an A70 supra with a 7MGE that had windowed the block at #5. We thrashed the living shit out of it for two days, filled the oil with coke, coolant and any other liquid we could find. It took two days of abuse and only finally siezed when he did a standing burnout for several minutes then let off and it siezed then. It is incredible how engines can still run despite being half destroyed and improper lubricant!
Taking this in combination with your previous video on running a car with no oil until it died, I’ve concluded that “no oil” is much better than “lots of full-fat milk and some presumably heavily crystallised/burnt honey”. Valuable information that I’ll be using on a daily basis, I’m sure 🤔
The crazy thing is that an engine could probably last 500 miles with no oil assuming it's run continuously and it had oil in before it happened. It would probably be better to add any type of oil if you was stranded in the middle of no where although I can't imagine many people carry other types of oil with them. I'd recommend anybody to at least carry a 1L bottle of the correct engine oil and check it regularly.
‘1 owner, low mileage, well-maintained, serviced regularly, well cared for. bargain basement price for excellent car, check it out before its gone! its an absolute steal!’ in all seriousness, please do a teardown of this engine. we all want to see how it looks like in there.
Ah that’ll be fine I reckon after you’ve flushed it through with some Mr Muscle sink and drain unclogger. Thanks as ever for some top consumer advice. I took away from this to always use organic skimmed milk and manuka honey when carrying out a service.
Seems like it actually died from a dead battery/alternator dying, the batter yterminals were smoking and the interior lights were going off when cranking and indicators would return when it stopped cranking, she's still mint mate!
Great video guys! What do you think off, in the end there will be a part of how you guys cleaned up this mess? I hope you guys did clean all the oil from the end. Thnx for the great content guys!
Jack: “Why won’t it die?” Engine: *dies* Alex: *Shocked face* Me: “DO NOT SAY THAT, EVER, TO ANYTHING!” Also, did you guys ever think of the fact that the ‘lubricants’ might have not worked so well after all?
Hey you two, I hope you removed all the mess with the oil and everything. Soil and oil is the worst combination for the whole environmental system!! Please mention that. Great video anyway ;)
I really like the stuff you do don't get me wrong. It's fun to watch and such but I'm kinda curious if you also clean up that oil spillage afterwards. I mean it was quite substantial. No offense, but just for the peace of mind and generally for the environment I would like to know. I mean we only have 1 earth you know. :D Ps: please no hate. I'm just asking. Could also be a good episode like how you go about the stuff you break. Like where is it going and such. :)
I like these formats and your work, but come on guys. We don't have to be Greta, but this much oil spilled on dirt in the nature during the oil changes? Like guys, just put some paper or plastic or anything underneath it and catch it. That is not too hard to do and makes a big difference. This just messed up the whole video for me.
On a side note, I have always loved those taxi cabs. Aesthetics aside I think they could make for fantastic micro-campers, you could fit a lot of stuff in there, including a single bed I think.

Ethan: ah, nice black rice pudding, smelling of spoon of honey in a barrel of WD-40
What you should have tried at the end is to put a cleaner/seafoam in and then top up with oil and see if it would start again 😂

Exactly this 👏

Every Milkman on car forums this evening - "what's best to use in my car, full fat or semi skimmed"
And they'll all be told "USE THE SEARCH FUNCTION"
Oof, I just got PTSD from the VW Vortex days
This is exactly what happens to a car when the owner states that it "will come with a fresh MOT"
Only if the milk hasn't reached it's "best by" date yet. Otherwise the MOT isn't fresh anymore.
ATF down cylinders overnight, engine flush (diesel+oil) and I bet this thing runs again.
Do a teardown on the engine, would be interesting to see what it looks like on the inside after the abuse
When honey is used as engine oil your car becomes a sweet ride.
Not letting run half the oil on the ground would be my suggestion for the next time. In Germany you would get a fine of about 5000 € for that.
