Wow, this video was released 12min ago and it already has 2.7 thousand views!!
Thank Scotty you are the Man when it comes to getting the job done.👍
Scotty Kilmer i changed the egr valve on my ‘98 camry and it also said the purge flow sensor was out and after that it said it went back to code p0401 wich its asking the egr valve again even though that i bought it and replaced it twice already? Is this common for ‘98 camry’s?
I'm really enjoying your RUclips. That's cool.
Did he hit a bird nest on the way? 😂👌
I love how when Scotty is working on a car, it looks like he's tearing it down at the junk yard. Just flinging parts left and right.
Scotty's help is two fold. Shows you how to do it yourself and also shows you why to do it yourself and not let anyone else touch your car.
Lmao true 😂
Cajun Swamp Fox he does have quick, carefree way of disassembly.
I was hoping he would throw the "beauty cover" on the ground like he did with his wife's car lol
You people are some real punks. Probably kiss each spark plug I don't know but I know you guys are some weirdos
Stupid this crappy that, Scotty you are a true mechanic.
I was working on my car dropped a stupid important bolt and i was in a hurry. I was swearing mad as hell! Luckily for me, some miracle I had another bolt that fit. All was well and i wasn't even late in the end.
Ye who hasn't sworn while repairing a vehicle hasn't worked hard enuf ...sayet the Lord
Yes he is
William Schuman it’s a stupid beauty cover, geez🤣
Even Amateurs swear when working on cars
Love those simple repair videos, you should show your daily work more often!
League of Draven Not draven
I was thinking the same thing myself.
Yesss
ISNT SCOTTY awesome?? MAN..i know a few good mechanics, but scotty has the coolest vibe man...
alejandro Well at least you know the procedure! It's not that difficult to do! You just have to take your time!
Scotty you teach me things my dad never taught me. Seriously can't thank you enough for the knowledge you spread!
Scotty, my dad never taught me how to shave, can you show me how?
@@adcolt54 WoW - I remember my Dad showing me how to shave now that you mention it - Thanks Dad.
@@adcolt54 Hahahahaha ... ;)
@@adcolt54 My Dad taught me how to shave but according to Scotty I'm probably "Doing it wrong".
Forever thankful for Scotty Kilmer for that. My kids will know who Scotty is, he's helped me do a lot of stuff without even speaking to him!
My respect to this man, drenched in sweat, working in the elements God Bless you Scotty, you are true American Icon.
Much respect is due to the American Legend, the Everyman Mechanic, and the Hero of the Shadetrees- Scotty Kilmer!
Scotty the man, saving people from financial ruin.
Almost a pleasure to hear Scotty w/ his "stupid this" and "crappy that". My old man was a mechanic and the things that came out of him were terrifying and at times quite creative- he sort of had a talent for combining obscenities. Especially after a few beers. Venting frustrations by cursing is crucial to the mental health of the mechanic IMHO. Just keep grandma's ears covered.
Hey Scotty don’t be shy to make longer video. Cool to watch you work.
Great editing work though.
Longer videos take a lot more time, I'd guess.
@@nickolastiguan for real especially when you're put an out like anywhere from one to 10 videos a doggone day
@@bernardenorth and let's not forget all of those angle changes lol
Haha perfect timing Scotty! My 2003 Camry was leaking oil around the valve cover and I was freaking out. I looked up your videos but you had none on the valve cover gasket, just one about the valve cover gasket leak stopper. But look at that you posted a video on just what I needed. Thanks for always uploading!
You mean valve cover gasket?
For some reason i thought he was doin this with the engine running but ig my ears mistaken me
Probably his big shop fan.
my big ass fan, it's hot in Houston
Dead cat microphones cut down on background noise. The cat head pillows work too,but they are nowhere to be found.
Am sure it's hot and humid there in Houston.
I thought so too
Scotty I can’t emphasize enough how much I like videos like these where you go through a diagnosis. Do more videos like these please! Thanks for all you do
Scotty diagnoses and fixes something in about one hour which would take me all day probably.
Your the best scotty. 3 lessons a day for free is a blessings save you money while taking care of your car scotty's way
I like that Scotty gets to the point in his videos! Numerous others talk about this and that and 19 minutes later they are just getting to taking the stupid crap apart....... You're awesome Scotty!
Another great video! Thank you Scotty! It's like we hang out everyday! lol!
Another reason we love Scotty! Thank you for your hard work and dedication, Sir!
Told my wife to take
Her beauty cover off..
She said it IS off😅
😂😂😂😂👍👍👍 hahahahahahaha
Scotty make a series of customers Bringing in their cars and fix them.. we want to see your reaction when you see the car and the steps you think of to fix it and actually doing it !!! This will help all of us out to think like you do!!
Awesome! Love when Scotty makes videos of fixing the customers cars real time! GREAT JOB SCOTTY! How about a 1 hour show a month working on a customers car!?
More car repair videos Scotty. You are very good at these types of videos.
change oil on time and gaskets will last longer. maybe the PCV wont get stuck open either with clean oil. oil gets inside of it too.
You've saved me thousands watching your videos, your the man! 👍
Great mechanic style, telling it like it is, thank you Scotty Kilmer God Bless You
That was fun to watch Scotty. Loved Your narration 😂🤣
". . . Nice and tight." Made me laugh remembering my early days learning about stripped holes, snapped bolts and crushed or cracked valve covers. Live and learn! Even valve covers have torque specs! Us old timers have them built into our hands. 😎
I just tighten it until my elbow clicks!
@@greetswithfire1868 Perfect!😂
Scotty's the best! You're an expert, not just talking around about repairs, your doing it by yourself!
Love when you actually show in detail how to fix the problem
Glad to see those good 3M products! (Greetings from Minnesota.)
I learned so much watching he's videos thank you Scotty
This guy is one of the best of the best. I love the way he hits the ground running & gets to the point. Kool.
Amazing! Thanks for sharing Scotty!
“I just saved my customers thousands by doing this”
Me: not buy a used chrysler?
not buy a new chrysler
not buying any type of chrysler
Chrysler makes one of the best automobiles. High quality
Johnson Hull I know! They are way more reliable than Toyota’s and Honda’s by a landslide!
@@kf765 I hope your joking
RTV on a flexible “rubber” gasket? That’s shade tree, and invites trouble down the road.
What would be the proper way to do it?
Alvin Hah Whatever the factory service manual says. Usually adding RTV to a gasket like that is NOT recommended. The stuff can get loose inside the engine, and clog oil passages for one thing. One use for RTV might be to put a very thin bead in the gasket groove in the cam cover, so the gasket stays with the cover. The operative word is THIN.
@@CrazyPetez Thanks for the reply. Most of the videos i watch concerning gaskets, usually use a sealant. Too much of a good(any)thing can be bad. Thanks.
@@alvinhah3367 You're welcome. Always, when possible, check the factory service manual. Cheers!
RTV...which stands for Room Temperature Vulcanizing...is a product used to fill voids in any composite to metal gasket surface. Rubber gaskets must "walk" in their designated area of sealing because of expansion and contraction. Using RTV is a typical shadetree mistake. I agree 100%.
You are a great mechanic and a great teacher/instructor. Your sense of humor and enthusiasm are infectious in a good way. Thanks so much !
Great video Scotty! My 2000 Jeep Grand Cherokee has a valve cover gasket leak!! It's minor., but now I know how to replace it! Thanks for being such a great teacher!
Maybe should have shown that no code and engine light went away too? This repair looked scary for a newbie like myself😃
Be careful with the sealer on that rubber gasket. If too much is applied, it will ooze into the engine compartment and end up working its way through your engine. Not a good thing.
That is why you use anaerobic sealant that wont harden without absolute oxygen deprivation. It'll just dissolve in the oil otherwise from getting mixed around so much.
As always, great vids Scotty -- short and sweet.
Ah scotty your videos bring me joy 😂😂. You definitely speak the true language of a mechanic
I would not attempt that repair myself, but you give me courage.
@Dan Cagle....I'm a woman and I changed out my entire valve covers (both left and right side) on my Infiniti FX35. I had to take the intake manifold completely off the car just to get to the valve covers. I also had to move the stupid wiring harness out of the way. But, I took my precious time doing it and labeled everything as I removed them - bolts and all. I followed the service manual and torqued everything in order, according to manufacture's specs. I was able to successfully get the job done! Soooo, if I can do it, then so can you! :)
And, just so you know, I'm a very feminine woman. :)
goldenbeachbabe sup
@@madthumbs1564 where can I find the torque values for my vehicle?
goldenbeachbabe I find it funny how you start off with, I’m a woman... like girls can’t fix cars. That’s like a guy saying, I’m a man.. and even I can wash the dishes so anybody can.
I attempt everything within reason. My husband gets mad..but now I am the fuel filter queen.
You dont know unless you try.
I usually don't need his help unless I just can't get a bolt loose.
You can do it!
I tightened a valve cover gasket good and tight once. Once, I broke the bolt. I recommend a torque wrench for noobies. ;-)
Or get a tiny 1/4 inch drive rachet. I use my for valve covers, water pumps, timing covers so I don't over torque them but get them on tight.
And how did you repair it D:
Good job. Thanks for sharing!
Great video Scotty, thank you!
Or better Mr. Kilmer you just saved somebody from a potential scammer.
By far the best RUclips Channel if you are interested in real car mechanics. Thank you for sharing all this information.
Thank you Mr. Scotty Kilmer for showing how to do the work.Need to learn more from you.
Hey, a repair I've actually done before! Did this on a Honda Civic on base at the auto hobby shop. Thank goodness they had experts on hand to give me advice on what to do...lol. The internet was around back then but wasn't as robust with helpful tutorials as it is these days.
Hey Scotty, I appreciate you posting links for the tools you use. However I could not find a link for the rusty crows foot you used on the PCV valve. Sure would like to have one of those.
I like your high tech hood securing device. Is that the picket fence model?
Great videos Scotty. I’m learning a lot from you. 😀👍🏽
Another great video. I did appreciate how you were so careful putting the valve cover back on after applying the sealant. Another great vid!
yeaaaaa.... Mr Scotty likes the black stuff....my man!💪😅 @2:46
Scotty, i was told by a few bmw mechanics that using the high temp gasket maker such as the one you use with a rubber gasket is bad. Also some say the engine oil eats it. Can you clarify.
Love this guy, I’ve learned so much!
Thanks for posting video bro. I needed to do a gasket job on my 2004 Corolla and you just gave me a preview : )
Well....id have checked for the vacuum leak before i started pulling crap off and potentially making more. You can use propane or break clean and move it across the engine. Or use a smoke machine ofc.
The Master has videos like that.
My point exactly.
Lost me at silicone on a molded rubber valve cover gasket.
KillSwitchNY I read through these comments specifically looking to see if someone else had mentioned that yet. What the heck Scotty?
Same here honestly iam just reading the comments to find if some one talk about the silicone 🧐
Love repair videos like this. Always learn new stuff
Nicely done and clearly presented.
The engine covers can prevent dirt from accumulating in the spark plug wells. On the other hand, you cannot easily inspect for gasket leaks.
When you remove the valve cover, keep the work area very clean and observe the torque specs when you retighten the bolts to prevent future leaks. I believe there is a recommended tightening sequence as well.
scotty been mechanic for 51 years, when he says its tight, its tight, lol
Tighten in a spiral pattern from inner bolts to outer bolts last
None...
intake manifold gasket suckin air,Scotty..
Never even checked that......why ?
Great video, Scotty!
basically a case study vid - learn from other people’s problems 😊👍👍👍 I love this format, ty Mr.Scotty
PCV valve on my RX300!was a nightmare,, It's made out of cheap rubber and damn near disintegrated taking it out And I had to dig broken pieces of rubber out of the intake manifold... tf was toyota thinking... but my p0171 cleared as well as replacing maf sensor
Same on many V6 Camrys. Similar engines. Used long tweezers and started to reassemble on the bench to see what was left to recover. Lotta cussing at inanimate objects, again.
Well I would of also checked and cleaned the MAF sensor Mass Air Flow sensor The car only has one bank so if you couldn’t hear a vacuum or see one MAF mostly likely the problem. Cool to see you Scotty going hand on. 👍🙂✌️
I've never seen a PCV valve correct a P0171 nor can I think of a way that it can. Maybe he'll make a follow up video when he cleans the MAF or cleans/changes the injectors to actually fix it?
You’re an awesome mechanic Scotty thank you for the video
LOVE this kind of real-life trouble shooting video!
I know now why your valve cover gaskets leak Scotty 😂
Scotty using his last 10mm short socket because he lost his deepwell 10mm yesterday while doing the LED backup lights.
Years of experience and natural God given ability and smarts make Scotty one heck of a mechanic! Wish you were closer to us my friend. :)
Scotty thank you for helping all of us!
Those engines are notorious for leaking intake gaskets!
It was the valve cover gasket and pcv valve, u could be right but not here
Hi Scotty. Thanks a lot for all your videos and for sharing so freely with all of us your hard gained wisdom and technical expertise!
hello and thanks!
I understand he makes money off youtube for this, but still seems a genuine guy looking out for us.
@@madthumbs1564 Why shouldn't he make money off of this? A man is worthy of his hire and should be compensated! Scotty has saved people how many MILLIONS of dollars over the years? For those who watch, learn, and do it? He's giving the knowledge at NO charge. With every single vid. He certainly doesn't HAVE to do it! The only cost is what you pay to have a computer or phone to watch the vids! Pretty awesome deal I'd say!!
@@scottykilmer you're most welcome!
@@yime6631 I couldn't agree more.
Great video!
Had that same problem with my 1.4-l VAG engine in Europe! Many thanks Scotty !
I run the car maintenance RUclips channel in Korea. I'm always learning such a great ideas on your channel. I hope we have a chance to be together. Thank you.
자동차의 모든 것[ Car & Man ] , thats a romantic thought.....i bet you have thousands of Hyundai & KIA's breaking 🙂
@@mrgarrison3516 🤣ouch!
How did you save them thousands by replacing the PCV valve?
A crooked shop would have told the customer the engine was shot.
Thank you thank you thank you for all the great repair info.
Hey Scotty I love to see you working on these cars it tickles me and then being courteous me to go do the same I'm glad you did that because my PCV valve have not has not been changed on my 2000 Silverado and I noticed a lot of oil around that kind of so I will change that PCV valve thank you I don't forget to ring that Bell l I love it😎😎😎😝😝😎
Use a rubber mallet. Never pry on an engine surface
I was thinking the exact thing!
Is that a TOYOTA you working on Scotty? 😎
Scotty grinding it out!!! Go Man Go!
I gotta say I know a lot but u have taught me so much. I have learned so much from u and I gotta just say how much I appreciate u showing actually useful videos
and use a torque wrench.
You are the man Savage Scotty.. Hey scotty could u give hovvies a slap or 2...😁
Scotty's the master! This video was awesome.
You guy's know what I really love about scotty ?
He actually diagnoses and fixes thing's.
I've known way to many mechanics ready to slap a part on and pray. Nothin worse than a four hundred dollar repair bill and being told ( hopefully that fixed it )
Seriously though. If it was feasible I would ship my car to scotty and back to me. Yeah it would cost a ton but at least I would know it was fixed.
Simply put, We need more Scotty's !
The best way to save money on repair costs is to buy a Toyota 🤷🏼♀️
Lancsr Oddl the issue with newer toyota’s is that the plastic door handles break
@@Datsun7705 lmao 😂 true. They just Rip right off"
here a secret... old Buick's with the 3800 series. working on them's easy and the parts are cheap!
Paint Ze Mute those 3800s were excellent engines made before GM went to cheap
@@Datsun7705 got mine with 15k (only running on two cylinders) on it from its second owner who didnt know how to take care of it. payed 500 bucks for it and swapped a coil. brand new buick park avenue ultra with nothing wrong with it for 500. now has 67k and i havent had to replace anything else. great car.

Head cover gasket? Is that the $1000 repair?
I love Scotty's automotive commentary, but it's always nice to see him show us how it's done.
Thank you for posting good and detailed how tos
I'm really enjoying your RUclips. That's cool.
I like it.
Shouldn't you torque spec the valve covers?
@DimebagVision Valve cover bolts have a tendency to loosen up over time. Scotty knows this more than anyone...
And now Scotty looks like he's "smoking under the hood"and needs to take a 🚿⬅shower after this one.HAHA!!.😎👍
