Some people just enjoy making negative comments.
Negative and mean and untrue are different.
I don’t understand why people were complaining. I thought your video was perfectly clear the first time
Armchair mechanics just because it's not the way you would do it then its done wrong when you have someone that has as much experience as Kenny he knows allot more than some professionals so I would trust his way of doing the repairs and not some armchair mechanics and most professionals mechanics
If the haters hate you, why do they watch you? 😳
So they can complain. The internet just makes people weird.
@@SearTrip LMFAO
Let them complain. More trafficking on the channel isn't it??
Pouring old oil from one car into another car creeps me out for some reason, like the new car will get an automotive STD or something! Then I remembered an old guy in my neighborhood back in the 1970s who collected everyone's used motor oil to put in his beater, which burned and leaked oil so fast that he couldn't afford to keep putting new oil in it.
@TStheDeplorable Thanks for making me laugh. I needed that today. Keep wrenching! Kenny
Haters gonna Hate Mr Kenny.. personally I find them Entertaining Laughable Actually.. Don't sweat it.. dealt with the public Also 40+ yrs. management for Lowes 1982-2018 I've Heard it All..
"automotive STD"😂😂😂😂😂😂❤❤ best comment of the week😂😂😂
I had an uncle who use to drain oil for customers and way back when the oil only had 500-1000 miles he would save it and change his oil with that., back then nobody had money.
I use the decently brownish motor oil out of my Wife's Caravan in my step daughter's 2016 Mini since it uses a quart about every 500 miles and she won't pay me back. Well , I did. It blew a head gasket about a month ago and I've been debating on what to do with it. 240K miles and original timing chain. I might fix it this winter if I get real bored and there's no metal in the pan. But I doubt it.
Maybe it blew a gasket because it had herpes of the cylinder head from used motor oil?
honda tech since 1984 dealer would have this issue when they hired a new lube tech several times they would overfill never caused any damage other than making the dealer look bad
over filling blows gaskets and seals.
Ken gives the armchair keyboard engineer nuclear mechanic professional s time of day in the real world boys & girlie’s that’s how things work trouble shoot & repair & move on to the next one 😂😂😂
Don’t waste your time on the hater losers
Don’t worry about the comments. People have more opinions than necessary 😅
Non of them educated
These are my favorite videos. Slightly passive aggressive, and rightfully so, proving a point to people that have no business telling a man with all your experience how to conduct his business in his shop. Shame on you fools that do, by the way.
All in all, I think this was a proper response. And, Kenny, I applaud you for keeping your cool and explaining this with your normally calm and informative tone. I dont think my response would have been as level headed as yours. Good job!
In the Navy, as a diesel engine mechanic, we recycled used motor oil all the time. The system heated it, ran it thru a centrifuge then a set of chngable oil filters and reused it. So pouring that used oil in the engine didn't hurt a thing......
Kenny! This is why the OG mechanic RUclipsrs that have been on RUclips for a long time just put content up & don't look back. On the brightside, I know that this wasn't going to hurt the Marist red van 🙂
There is a video showing exactly what happens. Guy overfilles the engine with crazy amount of oil. He cut out a square from the engine block and covered it with a piece of plexiglass. oil pan was also made from plexiglass. It's an awesome video. I tried to post the link but I do not see my reply.
My opinion is this is absolutely fine for a short distance. I test drove a car one time down the highway for a long drive 30 miles 75 mph and low oil pressure light came on. Car was overfilled by 4 quarts. 4.5 quart capacity for reference. Long drive aerates the oil as shown in the garage 54 video and will eventually cause low oil pressure. Car did not smoke or overheat. After I test drove the car I found the video curious to see what happened inside the engine. I did not buy the car. Didnt trust how long he drove the car like that. Looked and saw mouse chewed oil level sensor wires and the guy said "Just kept adding oil" light still comes on. This is a true story.
I would think every engine would act different depending on when the oil started to aerate and how long it was driven but that video was crazy the oil amount added was higher than the crankshaft and it didn't blow out a seal and it just started to run rough.
I rarely comment, but this bothers the f$%@ out of me. Understand your trying to please some aholes.but the regular people enjoy you thats why we watch. Years ago came ro the understanding if you don't like something about me ,WHO CARES
Kenny, you can't please everyone, it's much easier to piss people off 😂😅😊
Love your content, please ignore the haters, they cant help themselves, have mercy on them ❤
Hey Kenny. Marist, that's on your back window at 5:59 .... was a Catholic Boy's High School in Bayonne NJ. If that's the same school then.. that's awesome 😀
Is it humid down there today? I changed my heater core hoses last night. Still gotta see if my engine is toast. Keep wrenchin'
I had a Dodge 1500 with a V6 engine. Went to the dealer and got my oil changed. Didn’t think much about it. By I noticed my oil meter pointer going back and forth. I stopped into a quick oil change store and asked them to take out 2 quarts of oil from the pan. Suddenly my oil meter was stable and worked correctly. Found out the dealer put in enough oil for a V8. And I got no charge for removing the extra oil.
Kenny I watch your RUclips all the time. Thanks for the show.
You will always get haters and those that doute with no reason too. I know that if you overfill your oil it will ingest that oil through the positive crankcase ventilation system and will smoke horribly. Some people enjoy complaining too much. It's like they get a thrill out of getting a rise out of you. Your better off not to let them get to you. Anyone who works on cars knows this can happen.
This video ranks very high along with quality of parts and bad shops doing shoddy repairs videos. Shame we cannot give but one thumbs up per viewer.
I have seen where people who have a five quart system put in six quarts and nothing happened. these fast change oil places will say over a half quart too much will damage your engine. that is BS. Fast oil change places only want to use the specified amount, that way they can save a little . If it calls for five and you end up putting in six it will not hurt a dam thing.
I had cam seal blow out of OHC Ford Pinto engine (Ford Europe Sierra), still don't understand how that happens, it was like only +1.5 liters of oil over the max.
Ford Pinto. Keep wrenching 🔧 Kenny
Because it was a ford pinto
search for: What actually happens when you overfill your motor oil? (w/ transparent oil pan) garage 54
Thank you for referencing that video for these people.
Absolutely.Nothing except it comes out to the side of the intake
Kenny, I’m sorry you had to waste your weekend to prove your point. Everybody deserves some downtime.
From another experienced tradesperson. (Different trade)
Been watching for a while. I would trust you with any of my vehicles. Love your videos. Thanks for sharing.
Opinions are like belly buttons. Everyone has one and they're all different.
I'm one of those subscribers that doesn't agree with all of your assessments. There is no way I would be disrespectful if I decided to query you.
I'll have to admit Kenny when I saw you do that I thought that goes against everything I ever was taught. But then I have been taught a lots of stuff that was unreliable. The car drove there, if any damage is done it was already done. Learn something from Kenny. And I did learn somerhing new. Thanks.
My opinion is that if you're not a mechanic and don't understand how a engine works don't act like you know i had a customer drive a car in the engine was over filled the car was barely running it was worse than that car and he had been driving it for 4 days like that I did an oil change he drove the car 3 years and never had a problem
Speaking of your daughter how is she doing driving the big rig ?
@bigbill709 She is in Ohio right now. Thanks for asking. Keep wrenching 🔧 Kenny
You are never going to please everyone. And there are those out there, who have never turned a wrench, consider themself an expert because they watched a video on RUclips. It's laughable. I've learned to just ignore the negative comments. But I get it.. And I completely understand where you coming from.
The only car I ever seen smoke after an oil change was when the new kid in the lube Bay filled it up to the top of the valve cover
Was his name Rudy, we went out on break, and he kept pumping oil into the engine till it came out of the valve cover. What a waste of oil, he just drained oil into the standup barrel and put the correct amount in, and boy did that car smoke, even with the correct amount in it.
My brother's wife drove her 2008 3.4 Equinox over 100 miles on the expressway with 4 quarts overfill. I change their oil for them and when she got home from her road trip, I checked the dip stick before draining the oil. I was amazed how high the oil was on the dip stick. So, I drained some oil until it was on the top full part of the hash mark. Like I said, I took out four quarts to get the oil level where it was supposed to be. Lucky for her, the engine was undamaged. I was surprised the crank seals weren't damaged and leaking from all the extra oil in the crankcase. That was 8 or so months ago and the engine is still running ok. Her excuse for the over fill was it was dark, and she couldn't see the dip stick very good and she kept adding oil until she felt it was on the full mark. My brother and his wife are lucky the engine survived that blunder. The 3.4 engine holds 4 and 1/2 quarts with the filter and I just don't understand how the engine could run with a gallon of extra oil in the crank case. Crazy stuff, for sure.
Yeah, but would you do that with Mrs. Wrenching's car? Just kidding Kenny. Glad you finally cleared the air on that one. I've been waiting for this video, and I figured it would be a doozy. Well done as always! Keep wrenching........
The Honda 3.5 V6 is pretty bullet proof. Perhaps you might get Catalytic Converter issues if you burnt too much oil through them for an extended amount of time. You did a correct Diagnosis and Repair.
The only thing I could of suggest is run a can of CRC INTAKE VALVE AND TURBO CLEANER through the PVC hose into the manifold. This would help out to clean any excess vapor oil that might had flooded into the manifold. Everything else is a non issue.
Gotta love it when people who ARE NOT mechanics try and tell people who ARE mechanics how they should do their job. 😂😂😂😂
Keep wrenching sir 🔧
Ken, don't worry old chap. The world is full of a holes, always has, always will be. Anyone with an ounce of common sense knows that grossly overfilling a car with oil is not a good thing. Don't risk damaging your car for these people. Best regards from the UK
I am an ASE master tech myself.40 years and still going. If I lived close to Kenny I would trust him with my truck my wife car and anyone else that I know. so to you haters...go find a life......do something meaningful with your life. Kenny is the man.
I think the title of the other video may have prompted the comments.
Seems reasonable
Don't sweat the small stuff Mr. Kenny. Thanks for the informative videos.
I use to use my race car oil in my daily driver because at an 1/8th mile at a time it had minimal milage and it was $13.00 a quart. My daily went 400,000 + miles. 6.0 LS engine.
If your oil pump locks up, common old Ford thing , you can drive it 50 miles if you put 5 extra qts. 😮
Todays younger generation is suit happy, they think every thing is qualified by a lawsuit, it’s the way they were raised, no common sense.
Don't feed the trolls Kenny buddy. Some people live to call others wrong or a liar, just ignore them bud.
You don't have to justify your actions to some bozo who doesn't know his butt from a spark plug.
If it wasn't for the keyboard idiots I would never have discovered your great channel so they are useful for some things. 😀
We had one towed in from a rental company that wouldn’t start. Knowing how they operate first thing I did was see if any oil in it well I couldn’t tell where the level was. 🙀 so opened the filler cap and there was the oil pool right up to the cap.
So did an oil change and luckily for them it ran fine. 🤦
Those people are just trolls waiting for you to respond to them. The thing that trolls dislike the most is to completely ignore them.
Your haters must be really dumb because i have always found you content very factual and informative
Watch garage 54 that tested a motor that was overfilled quart at a time till it was way overfilled, and it still ran fine, so naysayers stick it where the sun dont shine
Oil chamges are so blown up and a bunch of blah blah blah. I buy the cheapest oil I can find and run atleat 10,000 miles between chamges and I never have engine issues. 2015 Traverse 3.6 just rolled 300,000 miles and a 02 Grand prix 3800 with 429,000 miles all on cheap regular oil
I love your videos they are very informative and clear I’ll been learning a lot from them always good to learn from it.
😊
half of the time i had my oil changed it was slightly over filled i hate no one tops of your fluids
The best part of the keyboard warriors is comments and views help you.
5:18 Ooo! Coffee from QuikTrip? ☕️ 😂
Most of these comments are from people showing their own ignorance.
You’re awesome Kenny, ignore the haters.
Way to school them Kenny keep on wrenching 👍
Them people don't have a clue, ignore them.
get 'em Kenney all the haters don't watch then
There many videos showing u can blow seals out by overfilling there a great mechanic who shows with a clear oil pan and shows how the oil mixes and blows the seal
seal didnt blow clear plastic oil pan created to see what happens melted from heat and leaked channel was garage 54
@@joeberg9823 yes the one they had in the car but the video when they did it out of the car the seals blew but my point is it can happen that’s all
Agree with you 100% 👍👍👍👍
Brother Kenny, I'm so glad that you made this video. You needn't justify anything to me but I must say to the naysayers "Get a life and STOP WATCHING THIS CHANNEL!! This man is the best damn technician I have ever watched. I love my brother's channel.
Brother Bob! I hope you are well. I just got home. In the van 😎 Keep wrenching brother 🔧Kenny
Anyone who believes adding twice the amount of motor oil will not hurt a motor has never seen the inside of a car motor. There is limited space inside of a motor with parts moving around. Continued over filling would result in blown seals, oil foaming, clogged intake channels, clogged catalytic converters and just oil all over! Don't do it!
Here we go again with a naysayer oil in the intake maybe a little stoped cat over long turm yes foaming in the oil yes but thats all watch garage 54 they keep adding oil a quart or 2 at a time and it still ran
Kenny I watched the honda pilot video I agree with everything you did complaint was alot of smoke now no smoke job done. they didn't ask for an oil change but they got that also wrong amount to right amount. When some people get on a keyboard they become experts on everything when they can't even pick their nose without watching a youtube video showing them how to do it. All you can do is laugh off the comments.
😂😂😂😂
If it was no big deal driving with the engine overfilled with oil, why did Kenny bother to drain the oil and refill to the proper level? BTW, there is no doubt that excessive oil burning will eventually destroy a catalytic converter; it happens every time carbon build up siezes oil rings on pistons. Further the smaller the displacement and pan size, the greater the chance of hydrolocking the engine. This whole episode is just silly.
Because the people did not want to pay for a oil change.They thought their car shield should pay for it.Kenny said he would not, but in order to stop the smoking.Heat, drain the oil out nothing else.Nothing more
I put 80w/90 rear end grease one time by mistake, lifters starting rattling and think it ran hot till I realized what I did, probably 2 days and 200 kms later, changed it, oil pump went a month later, my brother was getting oil from his work, no lable on can...ughh east coast Canada NB 🇨🇦. Was a 1978 Olds omega(this happened in 1995 ) 2 door hatchback, 231 v6.
Did not realize it was ninety weight Oil I guess so i'm confused
Thank you Kenny
How many of the haters actually do mechanic work for a living ?
Right?! Mrs Wrenching hates when I look at the comments. Keep wrenching 🔧 Kenny
Kenny, you need to spray wool wax on your Vans and your vehicles. It's a very very good undercoating. It will save your vehicles from Ruston
Kenny has over 40 years of experience as a motor mechanic. The people who commented negatively about his method of testing will most likely have zero years experience
as a motor mechanic. I come from a family of motor mechanics here in Australia. I know who i will trust - keep on wrenching Kenny, we really appreciate you & your channel.
Funny, working at Pepsi back in the 80's wrenchin', I went up front to grab 1 of the many sales depts small isuzu picks up they used, to service it.....Well I get it all done, and drive it around the block to park it in the lot. It started smoking, and losing power??? WTF? THEN, I remembered maybe I put too much oil? Checked and yup dipstick was high...I hurried back to the shop to drain out some oil. I had gotten distracted and pulled off of it halfway thru to do something else, for about hour or so. Forgetting I had refilled the oil before the "distraction" lol lesson learnt
Kenny, I've been working on vehicles since high school (back in the mid 70's), was formally trained in the U.S. Army as a Track & Wheel vehicle mechanic my whole army career (30 yrs.),was a wrench as a civilian until I retired in 2017. You are one of the best mechanical technicians and a honest guy that I follow on the web. Foolish people always find negativity in something good. You keep doing what you do man!!
LOLOL KENNY!! LIKE I SAID IN THE HONDA PILOT EPISODE, EVERYONE'S AN EXPERT!! I GUESS ALL THE ARMCHAIR EXPERTS AND HATERS MUST HAVE FORGOTTEN ABOUT YOUR 40+ YEARS EXPERIENCE! IGNORE THEM, YOU ARE GREAT!!
Mr Kenny, I'll take your 40 some odd years experience over any troll on here any day. Overlook people Mr Kenny.Ive worked on some people's cars and,low and behold, even something you didn't touch, and it went bad anyway was my fault 😅 Did a brake job,then couple weeks later, their driveshaft fell out. Because I mentioned that the u joint sounded bad,it was immediately my fault 😮😢😊. Happy weekend sir🎉
I forget exactly what he said but I saw a clip where Aaron Rodgers said why read what others say unless they are someone who you seek their advice...haters love getting under your skin and love even more you mentioning them in your videos
Like you Kenny, any good mechanic would know if there was any serious risks as soon as they turned the key and heard the engine. If the engine was over filled to the absolute Extreme, like 20 or 30 Quarts over, You’d hear it. You’d get all sorts of worrying noises from things like ‘Crank Slap’ as the engine is running. This “I’d sue you” character sounds like an ‘Armchair Expert’ so take his comment with the ‘pinch of salt’ it deserves.
Just maybe, the haters were referring to draining the oil and putting the 4 quarts back in with no filter. The customer requested the filter not be change and put the oil back in because the CarShield policy would cover a overfill claim, makes sense to me. You do what the customer agrees to, nothing more and nothing less. Keep on wrenching Kenny, you did nothing wrong.
These clowns succeeded at getting under your skin. You’re up at work on a Saturday making a video in response to some trolls. They don’t deserve the energy brother. Let it go. As your channel grows you’ll have more of them. Just blow it off. The comments help the channel even if they’re ignorant!! Keep your head up brother! Hope the wife is doing better!
God bless~
I think 95% would say your a good tech, the 5% possibly either never worked on there own car or never are wrong. I’m a dealership tech and what you did in no way is a big deal. Now if you drove it a few thousand miles possibly but even that’s a stretch.
I give you credit I wouldn’t want to deal with the negative comments.
Hey Kenny
Were they complaining you drove it like that, or complaining that you didn’t scam the warranty company?
Either way, you did the right thing.
You have to have a decent understanding of how the oil pickup and sump work on an engine to understand that overfilling won't really do any damage to your vehicle. I have a 2013 Corolla (daily driver) that has 305k on it. The owners manual says to put 4.5 quarts into the engine after every oil change. You can bet that since day one, I have always dumped the full 5 quarts into that engine..have not replaced any seals as yet and I change the oil every 2500-3000 miles. Car runs like a champ, has good compression and with the exception of tires, steer components, brakes, calipers, PCV valves and shocks..I have replaced or repaired very little.
You did nothing wrong.
Your video was perfectly presented and explanatory.
Screw the haters.
When pouring oil I trust in gravity because the earth sucks!!!LOLOL Some Folks Kenny really dont know any better.
If I remember correctly there was a problem with Honda's with oil dilution. You said the customer had an extended warranty. Possibly could the customer had tried to get a new engine claiming a false oil dilution situation with purposely over filling it?
What is the problem with the other video, i don't understand it, it was okay to me, actually it happened to me, i poured 4.3L and it seemed that there was some oil in the engine already or something, it got overfilled by 1L, so i have to fish a line though the dipstick hole and suck the remaining oil out, i know I'm a moron😅, but lesson learned, and it was just 1L overfilled, nothing compared to this
I knew a kid that had a geo metro. Not a mechanic. His dad told him to check the oil like every time he drove it. He couldn’t see well and kept thinking it needed a quart. He filled the engine entirely up. At that point it quit running. I came over, drained probably 10-15 quarts of oil out of it, and got it running. The exhaust was full of oil too and it smoked like crazy for about 10 miles but after that was fine again. Was pretty funny.
I’m sorry you felt the need make a new explanatory video.
Those of us with brains, fully understood the first video.
You are the Real Deal Kenny. I only wish you were in NE FL. I enjoy your videos. All the best for Meg also.
Thanks Kenny!! There's always going to be someone online fhat will rant and rave about anything and everything no matter what you do! Don't worry about it and don't lose no sleep over the trolls!
I had a friend whose father swore that local garage blew the rear main seal on his 1963 Impala by over-filling the pan by 1/4 quart. There was no reasoning with him. This car used a graphited rope seal. Old Wayne swore that too much oil with cause a catastrophic oil pressure increase.
Get yourself one of the magnetic drain plug magnets on a spring and handle. Best tool I've bought in the last 20 years. I got mine off Temu for $6. Went from draining lukewarm oil to draining operating temp oil (in Florida) and not getting burnt.
Why not admit what you did was wrong instead of saying you've seen that a million times. Now people will be adding 6 extra quarts at their next oil change so they won't have to add any before their next next oil change.
Bingo! I'm 62 years ol😢d and have seen most everything you have. My comment was verify the customer complaint. I got ripped! 😂😂
Trolls always know better. Except how to check how many quarts of oil go in there engine. My Silverado takes 8. Sorry Ken just ignore the trolls.
Either drive your car back or have it towed. No oil change needed. Unless the oil is changed and a Mechanic's Lien issued. Video Soap Opera series. Can't 10W 30 Wait Vitriol. *Makes no sense could of told this customer to go elsewhere.*
A customer years ago came and said her car was running hot , first thing I do before any work on a customer's car is pull the dip stick she had no oil in the car , I guess dip sticks are to heavy to pull out 😂😅 I've seen a few cars that were over filled the rings cant handle all that oil that needs to be scraped off the cylinder walls . the drive through oil change joints are the worst either no oil or too much ,cant win some days Kenny .
K e n keep up the good work this is River day you do the best of the best you're a pretty good mechanic right there hey Ken AI they tell me I can't program you or something whatever they're saying if you don't have ai which is Apple😊 I got Android my girlfriend and I are fighting right now because of A1 say things I didn't say😊 hang in there but because this is getting crazy AI bull crap love you too
