Great video!
I absolutely love your videos. I'm a single mom with no fear to tackle my own car issues. Your videos are so complete and helpful. With your extra helpful tips i have the confidence after watching the necessary video that i can fix my own problem without worries. You are an amazing mechanic and i love how engaging your videos are. Thank you for helping me, i appreciate all the time you dedicate to educating the public and myself. You are by far the best mechanic on you tube.
You still single?
I mean it's been a year.

@@GoneJustinSeconds Hahaha

@@GoneJustinSeconds maybe no money no honey :)
I actually did this to a '94 Toyota Celica and it turned into a '95 Toyota Celica.
Lmao
Hahaha good one!
What is the name of the product you use and where to get it ?
Did that cleaner cost $30,000 per can?
@@edsyphan3425 No, I bought it used and it cost only $3,000 with 60,000 miles.
only Scotty can remove a wheel with a standard screwdriver.
haha if you aren't being sarcastic, he paused the video, most know how to take the hub cap and wheel off, unless there is a locking nut, that's another video
@@asrtive yes bro, you can see his impact wrench sitting on the ground
Lmao
It's a joke no need to explain everything.
They ruined your joke 😅
Scotty is the only mechanic guy I know who would go the length and see how you actually drive the car to get to the root of the problem.
Nothing will ever grow on Scottys drive way.
(Until 2675)
He needs miracle grow..
@@angeloacosta9411 The last thing he needs it more chemicals on that land LOL. Hell even the neighbours must be getting high from all the vapors.
That CRC Brake cleaner is good stuff. Kills wasp without the mess and smell of wasp spay.
James ES44AC -2 It'll work magic on weeds that get in the cracks of the driveway, too.
Curious to know how u guys know these thing
@@that1guy487 Great to know (I already knew about its wasp killing superpower) but I wonder how it stacks up to weed killer price wise?
Very good to know and i such a great alternative to a weed killer thats probably better for the envionment cause it evaporates so quick haha
😂 good to know.
Lol, “Use a big fan.” Shows the fan, which says “big” on it.
No joke that Scotty getting alota fans these years around.
@@achmada9338 lol
Scotty is the man to listen to for a bit of humor (sometimes it's even funny) and great tips.
Thank you.
Hes the best my daughter just got a car I showed her a video shes like geesh who's this guy your friend lmaooo
Always take care of and put your money towards your brakes, tires and lights. Safety first.
And silicone wiper blades!
Clean your parts with Brakekleen over an ant mound....cleans and dis-insects. A BONUS Thanks Scotty. J K
I was in the auto body industry for 31 years but yet watching your videos that's still learning things I never knew.
He’s the neighbor I would want to linger around while I barbecue ❤️
You'd probably chase him around with a pitchfork when all your meat smells like break cleaner...take a biiiig wiff from the fan.
@@coleweede1953 😂
Brake Cleaner is probably one of the best cleaners ever made. Has thousands of uses. 👍
Like what other uses?
it kills bees instantly too!!
@@vivianp5962 it's a really good wasp/hornet spray for cheap. Got stains that won't come out, try Brake Cleaner.
Interested on what other applications can it do too!
@@chantakzee clean spark plugs
I have two cans of Brakekleen. You can use it for all sorts of purposes, including cleaning reloading dies.
It's a good bore cleaner as well
I use it on my mountain bike chain to get everything off instantly and then relube the chain accordingly.
@@jessel1217 No better degreaser than brake cleaner.
I’ve always worked on my own car, your pointers help to remind me of things I may have temporarily forgotten, thanks for sharing your knowledge
Just found your videos. I'm getting ready to replace the rear drum brakes on my '94 Chevy Van G30. I watched a few others, which were either vague and poorly shot, or just not very user friendly. Then I found yours, and was very happy to see that they were full of information, delivered in a natural, helpful way, including the right tools needed for each step, tips on things to do to extend the life of your brake job, keep the brakes from squeaking, etc. For me, this group of videos was exactly what I needed to help me take on this project with confidence. I'm actually looking forward to it now! Thank you !!
Hi, Scotty
I just bought a pair of Akebono brake pads for my truck replacing my factory pads after 80 thousand miles. Everything you mention is on point. My son of 18 years, said after watching the video. Wow Dad that makes sense!! Thanks.
I like the fact that Scotty is drenched in sweat by the end of the video. Brings a lot of authenticity to him being a true mechanic.
And he works right there in his driveway, year-round!
He’s also in Houston which is basically a sauna.
@@lungandfoot wow, I was wondering where he was located....he is the best....
@@ifoster165 He now lives in Tennessee unless something has changed 🙂
@Hardware John woah!
Thank you Scotty you're the Best and if anyone else out there That's watching this also Thinks that Scotty is the Best please give Him a Big Thumbs up too Thank you from Joey in Honolulu Hawaii "Aloha " ✌😎
Scotty, been a long time fan and really enjoy your videos. I have been able to get more confident with my auto repair work and have been getting better at it. Looking through the Brake stuff on your channel, to check and find out extra information and hints. Thanks so much for all you do in getting this information and sharing your knowledge with us driveway hooligans.
“Now of course when you have to slam on the breaks in an emergency situation; by all means use them! You don’t wanna hit somebody!”
Freakin love it!
Reminds me of the guy who trimmed his hedges with a lawn mower, and won a lawsuit. God, you gotta be PC and clear as a bell. Many people are that stupid, they say: "Scotty told me to break conservatively". Can you imagine the lawsuit coming from that?
Hi Scotty,
I live in Ecuador and always watch your postings on You tube. I really like your common sense advise. Keep it up
I really like the advice that Scotty gives to keep your car running and staying in pristine condition! I highly recommend the comments that he makes about products that are sold on the market! He’s my ace!
Wow. OMG. !!! I am from Brazil and , of course I speak Portuguese, but i leve in CA, but it is completely unbelievable that I have found the Master Scotty in Portuguese. Its super awesome.
Thank you a lot.
Your my hero Scotty it’s good to see an honest person giving all that helpful information please keep it up
Scotty I am an Australian Fan and do like your informative Video's. Thanks Mate.
Does that mean you spin in the opposite direction?
@emigrate It's a frap!
@@kellyjackson7889 yuppp
@emigrate so much hate speach. Completely unnecessary
@emigrate Yet again, the pot is calling the kettle black! Worse yet, you do t even know if the Aussie fan is a kettle. You have no idea what ethnic group tho man identifys with. He could well be of Aboriginal decent. Would you consider giving this man a public apology? If you did apologise, it would be nice. ;)
Video was 4 years ago. And it still reminding me how to properly maintain and take care of my first owned car highlander.
Thank you because you save me money and you gave me knowledge that doesn’t need a school to enroll and get home and get to school and all that 😅
Good job Scotty. I cleaned the drums on my 1984 GMC 2500 4 by 4. I have had it since 1994, put new pad on the front disks. The rotors looked good. I can't wait to get my new brake cleaner
Scotty, THANK YOU for these videos. I have a 07 Kia Sportage and your videos helped me save lots of momey.
CRC is the best brake cleaner. Thanks for the tips, Scotty!
scotty i think your show is amazing. my honda is 18 years old and runs like brand new i am not a mechanic but thanks to you i have changed my padas and rotars also done a full service oh and drop links front and back. keep up the good work.
Great information! Wish I had watched it before my last brake job! Keep up the good work Scotty!
Hi Scotty,. Could you make a vid on how to bleed your braking system?
He already did it.
Ok koo
Word of advice, before you request videos use the search feature. I know, I know, its awfully difficult and its easier to let someone else do it for you. But I believe in you; you can do it.
@J Stihl makes us video on how you do it. Post a link here. Tia
Scotty’s yard will probably be designated a superfund site.
LOL
Sell all tools be a millionaire
Sam S. Lanai As a safety and environmental professional I was thinks the same thing......
I don’t know if you have ever used brake cleaner, but that stuff evaporates pretty fast and with as hot as it looks in the video it was probably gone in no time.
i wish he was my neighbor.
Been watching you for years glad you're still going
LOVE watching your videos Master Scott Kilmer . You have a vast knowledge about cars. Thanks
This was right on time - doing my rear brakes tomorrow. Thanks for sharing.
It's great to see someone who knows what their doing. Thanks Scotty
Scotty is fantastic. He gives so much useful information. He knows his stuff.
Absolutely love brake cleaner. If your working around cars it is not only good to have, it is a must have. Love your videos Scotty. They are both informative and entertaining. Keep up the great content.
I like that you went over both drum and disc brakes. Thanks, Scotty!
I love the smell of Bräkleen in the morning.
So does Robert Duvall.....
Works great as a disinfectant for minor scrapes and cuts! Just spray some on those pesky cuts you get while working!
Good one!!!
@@lysol7204 Done it. I'd rather die of infection.
I would not use it to clean brassieres...
Hi Scotty,We miss great guys like you up in Canada!
Thanks for all the tips and videos
Bryan Rv
Great advise for an often overlooked part of general maintenance! Keep the videos coming!!!
Scotty, I'm comming to Texas just to hang with you for a couple hrs. Thanks for being with us.
No ur not
Better make an appointment first!
Scotty turned me onto Akebono brake pads and now that's all i use.Very informative.Thanks for the vids and keep them coming.
There are a lot of videos out there about cars. Yours I've always found to be useful/informative....which is the whole point. Also I like your energy. Good stuff.
I need that brake cleaner. It works good to remove graffiti from masonry brick walls. Plus, i will be learning how to fix my brakes tomorrow. I want to do everything correctly. Thank you Scotty.
Don't drive like a maniac, and your car will last longer. Who knew?
Pass people who brake every 10 feet
Drive like a granny when car is warming up, than full throttle when warm, better for engine.
@ThePariss333 boohoo. As long as you're in control of your vehicle you're not endangering anyone. Step on the gas and live a little ya prune
@@goldenultra wether it's better for your engine or not is debatable. I prefer full throttle a couple minutes after driving as you avoid heat soakin your intake and have more power.
@@Josh-cw8by More power because it is taking cold air, that makes sense. On my Avensis when you start cold it revs high toyota built it that way. So maybe there is more to it....
Take off the parking brake before trying to take off the drums.
You always try to take it off first. Having to go loosen the star bit and then retightenin it is unnecessary if you don't need to do it. Plus this car has an auto adjust feature, so if it comes off easy that's the method that will happen.
And if you literally meant release the parking brake then try.... well, it's not coming off if the brake is on.
1:13 you can see that he does not have the parking brake it was the Hub Centric ring
You mean out the gear in neutral or take off the emergency park brake?
yeah i broke my tone ring on my Subaru because i left the parking brake on… never going to make that mistake again
Very informative Scotty! Glad I ran across your channel!!!
Scotty, love this channel! Mechanics are like doctors! Always awesome if you have one in the family. Thank you for all the reliable videos!
Great videos regarding auto mechanic tips.
Keep up the Great Work Scotty.
Thanks.
Scotty you dah man love your videos learning a lot from you keep up the good work.
I've been watching Scotty longer than any other auto mechanic on you tube! Very educated and truly Master Mechanic!
You’re a great Scotty! I can’t get enough of your videos! Your knowledge and editing is the best on you tube hands down! Thank you very much for everything you do. I’ve learned soo much. I also have a Celica GT and Love seeing that lil beauty in your background. God bless man.
I gonna be doing this for my next vehicle’s brakes. Thanks Scotty.
Thanks for the great tips Scotty.
Now, go get a cold beer 🍺
Love your videos Scotty. Keep them coming, very helpful. Thank you so much!
I really like your videos. I learn more every time I watch your stuff. Thank you so much for putting your knowledge out there.
Scotty, I just recently discovered your channel, and this 63 year-old guy is very grateful for your lessons. You explain things so well based on knowledge and experience, so that makes my car repair/maintenance decisions much more comfortable. I’m really grateful!
Great advice, and so simple, good preventive maintenance. Thanks, Jeff
Ok here is my comment.
Mr Scotty your doing a fine job .
Thanks for all the help and keep on making great videos.
God bless you

I used to be a small engine mechanic, and I love all your advice for car owners...
That break cleaner is good stuff.
I use it to clean lock cylinders.
It's also really good at removing sticker or tape residue. A quick blast and wiping the surface with a rag right after is usually all you need.
Always good to see your informative videos Scotty! Thanks for making them.
i wish theres a shop where people can bring in their car and fix it themselves by having someone like this guy tell us what to do and what tools to use. that was be awesome.
Love all of your videos. I bought a 2007 Tacoma and flushed out the old brake/clutch fluid and it looked like olive oil. UGH Thanks again.
Hello Scotty, I'll take a case of that brake cleaner! Thank you! I'll need it for my next 2 brake jobs on my cars.
Keep up the good work Scotty. You are the "rock star" of cars!
Thanks scotty you have literally saved me alot of money and frustration. You rock keep on keepin on the great work.
I have a 1987 Toyota truck and I had it for 30 years.i just replace the rear drum cylinders thanks to Scotty's videos .they were liking all the fluid.
Always great advice Scotty. I’m a mechanic of 42 years.
but how can one get hold of him for personal business talk?
EXCELLENT advice Scotty! Thank you!!
Love your videos! Am sharing with both of my daughters too! No one will take care of your car like you do!
My breaks have never felt so smooth. Thank you kind sir 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Another nice job Scotty thanks a lot I watch your videos all the time
Can you please move to Brooklyn New York we need a honest mechanic
Brooklyn...where men are men...and so are the women
@@sirjohndoeofpa3292 more like the women are women...and so are the men.
hahaha thats why i try do to my own work when possible
I enjoy & appreciate your "no nonse" approach to mechanics!!
I watch a lot of youtube. Your videos get an A+. And you are actually providing a great service, thank you.
Love your videos. I save them all. Thank you.
Great video! I have learned so much from everything you have posted.
I used to think my garage was messy, but after seeing Scotty's garage I don't feel so bad. ;-) Thank you Scotty
good stuff man. you save a lot of people money if they just listen to your free facts everyone should know but just dont think. i watch your videos even when i dont need any help i just watch to stay on top of things and sometimes i do learn something new and get more life outta what i worked hard to get. thanks
Great videos. They are very helpful and your presentation is always awesome.
Great tip to help with my 1970 all drum brake Chevy truck. Thanks.
This guy really knows what he’s talking about, he has one of the best maintenance programs I’ve seen in a long time.
My wife's 2007 Honda Fit had 4 wheel disc brakes. Her 2018 Fit has drums on the back. But thanks to another video of yours, you set my mind at ease by saying that it's the front brakes that do the majority of the work. This summer I will blow out the drums. Thanks for the info.
Been using CRC brake Klein for a long time good stuff!
Brake cleaner is like a 10mm. It's never there when I need it.
Ben C that would be a 13mm for me
My .45 is aways handy
13 mm definately!
That's like a 15 for me
I'm now up to my 3rd 10mm spanner in a year. Honestly, where the F do they go???
Thank you Scotty! I have learned so much watching your videos. I'm shopping for & you've even given me great tips for that.
Thanks Scotty, always great info and your generosity is beyond words. Thanks!
Sage advice from my favorite RUclipsr!
*Clean and non-offensive comment*
I like that you mentioned changing out the brake fluid every so often. On my VW Jetta, the maintenance guide says to do it every 2 years.
What year is your Jetta I'm curious as I have a 08
@@michaelpadilla6007 2003
Better to change the fluid than to replace the lines. Fluid sucks up the water causing the rust.
Then again if you replace a brake line you need the replace the fluid anyway.
Worst case scenario: You do brakes, lines, fluid and then store the car. 5-10yrs later when you want to drive it again you will most likely need to replace lines/fluid/seals again.
That may be a little bit earlier than needed but still, it won't hurt anything.
Scotty, I always check your website first to see if want I am working on is on your site. I don't trust too many mechanics when it comes to servicing my vehicles; however, I absolutely trust you. Thank you. 😊
Good Video, Scotty. I learned a valuable lesson on how to keep my rear brakes working longer.
I use brake cleaner all the time! CRC is my “go-to.”
5:09 If you were Scotty's neighbor, you could watch him out your window every day.
I would be honored to have him as a neighbor and especially to watch him make his videos. :)
"There goes the crazy old guy yelling at a camera again"
This would be a blast!
He can fix your car for free! Maybe
I once saw a neighbor photobomb one of his videos. He was just walking by and was looking at Scotty doing a video as he kept walking.
I really like watching this guy he makes the most boring DYI auto repair video, and makes it funny. That is in my opinion, a great way to teach people how to 1, save money 2, work on their own stuff with confidence. Great job.
