    I'm not a mechanic, but my dad worked as the general manager for a parts department in a dealership for 45+ years. Needless to say I've at least been around cars most of my life. I used to hang around the shop with the old man and hear stories from the old mechanics. Scotty, you bring me back to those times. Thank you.

      ​@Steve Silvas You can be young and have all that experience but it depends very heavily on the environment you live in.
      Just like people trying to say they are mature at 20 or 30 years old but one can be much more at 12 than someone at 60 who's been sat in a cave.

    I tried something like this years ago it was called the "Tornado" but it was fixed and didn't spin, it was supposed to increase your horsepower and your fuel mileage it did nothing for the engine power and I got worse gas mileage. These kind of things are modern-day snake oil for your car.

    • @JohnDoe-fi9li

      There's a channel whom name evades me that tried thousand tested hp gains e on a dyno. Unsurprisingly they did nothing. After that they tried with two leaf blowers which gave out marginal results as well. Turns out air has to be actually compressed to work.

      John Doe, you are probably thinking of Mighty Car Mods. They tested the 'electric turbocharger' that was basically a computer fan, then moved on to leaf blowers.

    • @smokeyjayshouse
      @smokeyjayshouse 5 лет назад +2

      My school around the early 2000s got a couple of these tornadoes to dyno test our tbuckets and we pretty much found no increase in HP or Torque. And in some higher flow intake applications there was even a decrease which we chocked up to extra flow resistance caused by the device... we pretty much sent our results to the company and never heard from them again.. later on when they became popular they were bosting some ridiculous results of 12% increase in performance by some no name university that probably doesn't exist or did something shady like changed out the intake in between tests obviously for a payoff.. the whole thing to me seems to depend on the placebo effect.. if you go in thinking positive expecting good results you will think you got them..very few people have a dyno to confirm these results. Mpg which can can vary daily isn't a good measure for performance.

      The tornado actually works but not very well it only gives you 2 or 3 miles per gallon better gas mileage Ive seen videos of a company that put these things in their trucks that had a fleet of trucks they drove alot. All of their vehicles got better gas mileage but not alot

    Thanks for honest opinion. My wife bought set of tires couple months ago from big box tire shop she has visited for over twenty years. Convenient because close to her job. Later that day I notice a rattling sound. Looked under car didn’t noticed anything unusual. Glanced at the brake pads thinking maybe they left out tensioner and pads were rattling.
    As time went on rattle became more noticeable. Work a lot with limited time off and my son wrestled every weekend since September, so needless don’t have a lot of personal time.
    Stopped by Toyota dealership early morning heading to son’s tournament to have oil changed and asked them to look for rattle, but they didn’t see anything abnormal. Finally State Championship Wrestling event finished this past Saturday so on today’s holiday stopped close to home Mom&Pop auto shop. They found the rattle.
    One Right rear and one left rear Tire sensors broke and bouncing around inside of both tires. Dash light never came on as one would assume so tire sensors are fairly tough to withstand to all that bouncing around. Mom&Pop shop mechanic said he has broken them before installing tires and replace with no charge. He recommended I return car to tire dealer and they will make it right.
    Drove 45 minutes to original tire shop wife bought tires from and they found same issue and mechanic clearly said probably broke when installing tires onto wheels. Five minutes later managers called me outside and required $327 to replace them. Manager claimed they’re plastic and brake. Naturally I replied sensors were broken when tires were installed..!
    Noticed rattle the next day leaving for work. Manager restated “they’re made of plastic and brake, that’s all I’m going to say..!” So I told him to return my car. He asked what about sensors in the tires did I want to leave them in or have them removed.
    Simply instructed him, don’t ask me anymore questions and it was in he’s best interest to return my car fast as possible. Returned home, called Mom&Pop auto shop, and they quoted a price to replace sensors $75 less..!
    I’ll probably be extremely irritated for a few days but your videos shows not all mechanics are closely related to sleazy used car salesmen..!
    I’m a Caterpillar Product Development Tech in R&D dept building prototype construction equipment for testing and evaluation. Simply don’t have extra time to perform my own vehicle work with family responsibilities and work schedule, but I tend to take it personal when I know I’ve been played..!
    Probably biggest issue is this particular big box auto shop really didn’t care my wife had a customer history expanding over twenty years with several large repair bills and just blew it over two tire sensors which no doubt in my mind they broke accidentally installing tires..? Doesn’t make very good business sense.

      I at first thought it was a DC blower when I saw him pick it up, and was thinking "Huh... an inline blower... kind of like a weaker turbo or something? Turn it around so we can see if they used different blade count and angles plus reverse rotation..." and then I realized it was just a few fans... with no motors to drive them. Ha!
