Hey could I ask you a question bro?
Great vid Scotty.
So well explained...as always.
Aussie chrisso 🚘🚗🚖🚕🚔🚓🚒🚑🚐🚎🚍🚌
Doc Scotty..
Hey Scotty you forgot the two stroke diesels
Great video as always! BUT! Europe uses 95 and 98 (not 99) as premium. Some gas stations even have 102 Ultimate (Aral/BP for example)
Scotty is a legit master at presenting documentary-style videos. He needs his own show on Discovery.
He created this channel to not have to be on TV anymore.
Yes
He'd be quite entertaining.....that personality is precious !!....Hmmmmm....an
intelligent goofball !!!!
His voice is wretched to listen to more than 5 mins, especially when he is excited.
Man I love his videos! Very informative. The quips he inserts now and again are golden as well!
I like how instead of “History of Diesel” Scotty put “Stop Buying This Fuel Right Now” didn’t see the history lesson coming 😂
It’s called good marketing. He’s mastered that as well. Great at pulling people in and getting good amounts of views on his views. The man is a true genius.
@@kikiloveme9502
Yes, but a lot of times his completely misses the topic in his video that is described in the Video name. That means that Scotty, just like any other RUclipsrs, just needs as much as possible views and doesn't care that the name of the Video actually fooled you to take a look at it.
I wish these videos were here 25 years ago when I was in training. Soak this info up kids!! You are lucky to have Scotty! Pay attention!!!!
TOYOTA is VERY, VERY LUCKY TO HAVE SCOTTY!
He does not know very much about diesels.
Can you imagine living in CA now and having a car that needs 93 octane and having to pay FIVE bucks a gallon to get it. Then having to fill your tank every 10 days and in some cases probably every week.
@@trvman1 10 bucks a gallon now ......democrats suck
American car makers would have learned something
All the earth would have benefitted.
I totally agree!
I find it funny when scotty speaks as a narrator his voice is different, almost like his hands are not moving.
I was thinking the same. These videos are very informative and I like them but they don't have that Scotty vibe you get with the others.
and he never uses his sarcastic laugh
Scotty has his hands tied behind his back right now.
@@davidjames666 pretty sure he's paid to do theses, why else would he/they include any other car maker other than honda or Toyota? He speaks nothing but garbage about all other car makers in his own videos, yet when shown in this video he puts European brand money pits THEN toyta
@@jmabs5096 maybe it more his preface on what he likes. I like Toyota and Honda the best but might try another brand if price is right. Anyway I like for him to explain things like he does.
Scotty going longer while all the wannabes do 60 second shorts. Love you Scotty!
@David B He also has a channel with 60 Second Shorts! He's very versatile! He does it all! @Scotty Kilmer Shorts
This could just be a compilation of videos we already watched...
I think he’d be a great instructor in a high school shop or a technical school. He has great energy and is a positive person. A great guy.
That’s what she said
@@HBButler01 lol
Rudolph Diesel mysteriously died... He went on a cruise and never came back.
@LUCKY JOE Just goes to show political standings then and now haven't changed much. Nobody benefits if a dollar can't be made and competition against the biggest holders of money often fails due to strange circumstances.
Tesla, Diesel ... the list goes ... on
henry ford killed him
Big oil has been a dirty business ever since 😂
@Andy Man lol yeah no doubt
I have watched many of Scotty's educational videos and as a life time mechanic my self
(I'm now 60) for those of you looking to actually learn and understand how what is on the road both today and past Scotty's is very understandable and everything i have seen is right on the mark !
Great Job Scotty!
the world could use more ppl like you!
*_Scotty changing the game with animations instead of IRL!_* Hard work pays off.
I remember once I borrowed my brother's VW Jetta turbo diesel, and was filling it up once, and this guy sort of laughed and said "You do know you're pumping diesel into the car..." and I replied with a little laugh like "Yeah, I know crazy isn't it. It's a turbo diesel." His eyes got a big and he was like "Oh, OK" looked at the badge on the back quick and said "didn't see that." and walked away.
how fast does it ride? Despite what people say diesels are very powerful engines with a lot more torque.
@@Monster33336 doesn’t mean their fast. now if you put an ALH in a mki to replace the 1.6idi? sheesh?
@@AWESOME1509 Not fast but strong. I'm assuming smaller cars with diesels should be much faster but idk.
That happens to me a few times a year, the last time, a few weeks ago, I had the station attendant come running outside waving his arms yelling across the lot. I just take it as strangers trying to look out for me and appreciate it.
@@Monster33336 I have a diesel Jetta wagon, it's no quicker than an average 4 cyl gasser but it climbs hills much easier. Don't have to push harder on the accelerator pedal going uphill. Also fully loaded with stuff it doesn't effect fuel milage, multiple people and camping gear i get the same MPG as it gets empty and just me. Around 47 mpg.
Very informative video. Here in Colorado and other high-altitude areas, the oil companies screw us over by calling 85 octane "regular" gas and charging around 30 cents per gallon more for 87 octane REAL regular gas which they call "midgrade". Most cars specify at least 87 octane as the minimum, but most drivers here just buy whatever is cheapest, which means they are using 85 octane that is not good for their engine. I have always spent the extra money to put 87 octane in my cars, and this video vindicates me for doing that. Old cars with carburetors probably did OK with lower octane at high altitude, but I'm thinking that modern cars' engine computers reduce performance and mileage when compensating for the lower octane fuel.
Love the way you explain things. I'm an old school mech. Back yard repairs. Started working on newer models around 2005. First 96 ford windstar. Loved the way everything worked with computers. Once I gained confidence I started doing more. Now have 2012 F150 with159000 miles and runs like a top. Maintaince fluid filter changes and fix small issues. Also have a 2012 Audi. It burns oil per one of your other vids but we watch the level and at 148000 that runs great too. Trans oil changes along with all fluids through the years. Best part. Paid for for many years now.
I have learnt more from this video than the whole of my life. Honestly Scotty you're so good at breaking things down simply. Superb!
these videos are soo good. this should be a video we need to watch in drivers ed tbh. so people can understand basic maintenance
I normally don't post but Scotty you rock man... Thank you for all the 50 plus years of information. Experience is truly the best way to learn something.
I like your non-shouting voice... it keeps my attention and I can learn from you! Thank you for your uploads/shares. I learned a lot with this one
Great video Scotty!!! When my sister 1st met het husband he had a VW Rabbit with a diesel and was having trouble with it. It sat for month's and I got there and it turn's out to be the fuel filter and he didn't realize it had a water separator built into the filter. Scotty I'm really loving this style of video's.
Scottys voice is very comforting when he does the informative historical videos
Scotty...I have an Isuzu Trooper, 1987, with a C223 diesel engine, 4 cylinder: after watching you here, now I know that my truck is an indirect injection system. Since I leave in the Dominican Republic, we use deasil vehicle all the time. And here is the reason why I think the indirect injection engine is better. The direct injection doesn't accumulate so much dirt inside of the engine like the direct injection engine does. I think the best diesel engine ever make was the Toyota Hilux Diesel 1986. This indirect deasil engine run for ever. And while they consume more fuel than the direct one, what you spent in fuel you save in mechanical work. Too much dirt inside of the direct injection engine. As for my Trooper, I have seen some of these with 500,000 mile and more in Indonesia where there is a Trooper Club. There are not fast, but they are, super, super reliable.
Any version of Scotty is top shelf!
Thank you for such an informative video.
Greeting from the state of roadrunners and javalinas, sunny Arizona. Pretty warm today. Great video.
Get ready for the hundred hundred.
Have you ever eaten a javalina?
The gas stations in Georgia don't have gas, but they have plenty of diesel.
very true in Augusta GA
Scotty, this is one of the best automotive videos I have ever seen, informative and comprehensive, but to the point. A MASTERPIECE. Thank you (ASE Master Tech, L1).
Wow No other mechanic can give a detail description like Scotty Impressive 😀.
Some places you do need anti gel for diesels. Around the south they usually ever get cold enough. But they have warming pads for the oil pan and battery. And you plug them in for overnight trickle charge. Engines are still cold. You need to let both engines warm up some. It’s hard on them I feel until the thermostat has moved let them warm up before jumping on the highway or interstate for travel or work. If you do don’t harf in it baby it. All the fluids are at the nights temp and don’t lube as well until it’s warmed. Engine oil is thicker. That is why manufacturers recommended 10/30 ten is 110 degrees and and the 30 is minus thirty degrees winter degrees the oil is still able to flow and lubricate your engine properly. If you have an old freezer go stick a quart and freeze it and pour it out after over night. Then pour up a bunch heat it up to 110 see what it does at 110 degrees is still lubricating?
Very good comprehensive basic primer for auto use/maintenance. Every new driver should see and heed!
I did enjoy this episode Scotty, I really did. Thank you for your time and massive informative video. 👍🏾👌🏾
REV UP YOUR ENGINES CUS WE EARLY BOYS
Yesssirrrrr
I would but I've got a Nissan Murano. I might blow up the Neighborhood if I reved that beast up.
20 mins ago 😎
I own a Peugeot 3008 with a 2L Diesel engine (180 hp, 295 lbf). Its fuel effectiveness is 73.5 mpg on a intercity road at 57 mph speed (90 km/h speed limit on the roads of that kind).
Scotty does a really nice job on these videos
Except he failed to explain that using a vehicle in hot deserts requires diurnal observance in that driving at night requires a winter grade oil and driving in the day rquires higher viscosity.
Scotty; we all love you man, thank you for taking the time and effort to bless folks with important knowledge !
Whenever Scotty Kilmers drops the new videos I roll up the Wool-o and get all schmoked up
you must get schmoked up a lot... lol
Scotty, you definetly took more than 72 hours producing this video with so much important and informative material. Thank You!
OMG, what an educational video. Your best video ever Scotty, not necessarily entertaining but highly informative. Absolutely loved it. I now feel I learned something today, thank you.
Nice video. Here in Norway, we have 95 octane and 98 octane RON gasoline. I buy 98 octane for my cars because 95 octane contains ethanol (E10 - 10 %). Ethanol contains less energy than gasoline, meaning ten percent of the gasoline is less powerful. So the energy of 95 is in fact lower than 98 per liter or gallon. Further, the ethanol is hygroscopic, binding water from the atmosphere. Also, older cars have fuel lines made of a rubber that gets brittle from ethanol.
22:48 That bee is in a... sticky situation.
Scotty is a workaholic, has a solid team around him, or BOTH! 💪🏼🙌🏼
Both
Just the honest truth. Thank you for making these videos, I’ve learned a lot from watching them! You rock!
Lots of good advice there Scotty. People should really listen to what you say. It could save them lots of time and money. Thank you Scotty.
I miss my 2005 passat 1.9 TDI. Damn thing was amazing to drive
You really put alot of work and info into this video. Thank you for the info.
Still wake up screaming sometimes because of the issues with Diesel injectors getting loose (at 125 GBP a pop to reseat) on my prior Jeep Grand Cherokee. Apparently a typical Mercedes engine design flaw that only keeps it in place with 1 bolt on one side of the injector (contrary to e.g. BMW Diesels that I'm told keep the injectors in place with 2 bolts, 1 on each side). Also due to the partially unseated injectors air was being drawn into the cylinder, cause big black clouds of smoke behind the car, especially during acceleration.
I typically see a 10% increase in mpg with premium fuel over midgrade. I often wondered if it's because the gas stations I tend to use have more additives or maybe have a lower ethanol content in their premium grade. I can also say that I get a large mpg increase if I use a mid-grade ethanol-free fuel, as much as 25%. I wish ethanol-free pumps were more prevalent. Corn-based ethanol isn't environmentally friendly anyway.
I know little more about a car than how to drive them. Hate working on cars but can't stop watching Scotty. Love the channel
Extremely professional, kudos.
WHEN I THINK OF IDI I THINK OF THEE INTERNATIONAL HARVESTER 6.9L V-8 BUILT FOR FORD TRUCKS IN 1983 AND THEN THE IDI 7.3L IN 1986.
Went to the Car show in Carlisle Pa today. Really hoped to see scotty there. That woulda made my day.
my 2003 Tacoma has well over 300k and the oil never gets to dark... i use full synthetic lighter than the trucks recommended 5w 30, that was a really good video Scotty ( i live in hotter than fink Tucson)
I always kept detailed service and fuel records on the fleet vehicles that I drove. Glad to have a chat sometime, Scotty.
Thank you for putting out videos that help me understand things about cars. Love it!
I stopped studying to watch this! 🤘🏻
This is educational too!
Good guy.
Today was my last day of school. No problem
And yet you watched and educational video and studied it! Lol this is a great video and it explains things very well.
So you're just switching topics, you're still studying!
When I first watched a Scotty video, I thought he was nutty.. now after watching these type of videos.. I know that's he's a super intelligent guy.
Incredible amount of info in this video!
True!! Watched before getting gas tomorrow.
Good Friday evening to Scotty hope you are doing well today what you got here brother!🧰🙌👍🍺
hello and thanks you too!
Tell me why I just watched this whole thing, knowing I would know all the information. But just because it was coming from Scotty. Damn you uncle Scotty
My Honda Fit recommends 87 octane. With it, I get 35-37mpg. If I use 93 octane I get 40-43mpg and it seems to have better acceleration than with 87.
Hi Scotty! Verrry interesting. Can you do a vid on the differences in how diesel fuel and gas is made?
This was very educational. Best gas and oil basics I've ever seen!
Love these. Hopefully these end up as part of automotive school curriculums
He is a treasure. I’ve learned much from him.
The animation and knowledge are so high quality, Scotty really did a fantastic job on this video!
The original inventor (Diesel) called it 'economical thermal motor'(patented 1882), and intended the fuel source to be coal dust lol.
t.y. ... I have a very short atten t i o n span..
but, somehow? your videos keep me focused. Your mojo works
Always keep an eye on that oil and filter if you want an engine to last longer like my 1.9l Austrian 4 cylinder BMW E36 engine that still runs like a clock.
Wow Scotty! What a great podcast! Every driver should listen to this! I'm going to recommend it to my entire family! Well done! Thank you!
I get days more of driving off a full 89 tank compared to 87 I noticed a big difference I drive 4 cylinder legacy
Scotty, your videos are very helpful! Good job, Master Mechanic! Thank you!
If you were to buy a diesel truck, what would you buy? We are looking to buy one and don't know if used is better than new in a diesel
I used to drive a 1973 Toyota Corolla, which was bought new, and used 87 octane gasoline. After ten years, the engine began to knock. I switched to 89 octane gasoline, which stopped the engine knocking. A couple years later, the engine started to knock again. I switched to 93 octane gasoline, which stopped the knocking again. After 14 years, I replaced the 1973 Toyota Corolla with a Toyota Camry. The higher octane was a way to stop the engine knocking. Perhaps, I should have had the car serviced instead, to stop the engine knocking.
no problems with cold starts if you use HVO100 diesel...made from palm oil...super environmentally friendly too!=)
WoW!!! Scotty this was FANTASTIC, I learned so much. Thank you.
I cam say honestly say I drove a 4.6, V8 equipped Crown Victoria Police Interceptor to commute from Las Vegas, NV, to Mequite, NV, 5 days a week for 3-1/2 years, and there was a distinct difference in distance I could go on a full tank of low or high octane. The lower octane fuel most definitely gave me less mileage and the fuel level dropped much faster too. High octane for that highway cruise was the best choice. After 3-1/2 years of that cruise in the same exact vehicle out of the fleet, I could easily see and even feel the difference. I wouldn't be surprised if that police Interceptor is still on the road today, it was an excellent, strong and extremely reliable vehicle.
All that corn that is grown uses either gasoline or diesel fuel to plant it, harvest it, transport it, and process it. Ethanol fuel is a boondoggle.
Honda and Toyota diesel engines are not really amazing compared to the HDI from PSA and DCI from Renault. I drove a DCI 90hp on a renault clio with 350.000 km on it, drive like a dream.
Scotty makes the best videos on RUclips a great learning tool.
It was cool to see a younger version of Scotty… Love his videos… The man is brilliant
Better than in a plastic bag. Great video 👍
your an awesome mevhanic, a family man. and you have a talent for these videos. you are very blessed
smart man... enjoy watching your videos
Working in a be Part stores I can say I’ve heard every one of these myths 😂
Great info Scotty.
I remember having to push a diesel engine van to get it to start.
Very informative and condensed. Great job, historically :)
Enjoyed Prof. Scotty's detailed explanatory video.
In Ireland, diesel engine cars (just over 43%) are the most popular cars after gas (we call it petrol over here)(nearly 37%). I myself have a 2012 Toyota Corolla with a 1.4 litre Terra diesel engine. Diesel is more popular here in Ireland because it's up to 10 cents (12 US cents) cheaper than petrol per litre and probably due to Ireland having more people living in the country than other parts of Europe and America. To me, petrol (gas) engine cars are only any good if you are only doing urban / town driving where you don't do long distance travelling. Since I live in the country and I do much long distance driving (it may sound funny, but I do long distance driving to relieve my depression and anxiety), a diesel engine is the much better option. €50 (just under $60) fills the tank full of diesel (it costs at the moment €1.42 a litre on average for diesel (€1.53 on average for gas per litre), which probably sounds very expensive when on average, diesel only costs 74 cents (about 87 US cents) per litre. At least with diesel though, in my car for example, I can get over 500 miles out of a single tank of diesel, which I think is excellent.
Evening, from California
hello scotty from Atlanta
Scotty sounds like Joe pesci
BETTER DEALS on FWD Sienna's. SAAB made ONLY FWD for years until it went OOB.
Makes sense. About octane I noticed my TL has better gas mileage throttle response at 95 octane. Cold start in the morning is rough
I have a Ford Transit van. The owners manual says use regular unless I'm towing a trailer. Then I should switch to premium. My engine is an EcoBoost.
Rev Up Your Engines!!! Love the documentary format Scotty!!!
When I went on extended trips in my Corvettes, I'd use GOOD quality regular. The lack of 'need for speed' fuel caused NO change in cruising effort (under FAST at least). It was stressless savings. Tooling about town, I used high octane and it was fine and I never noticed any 'overhang' upon switching fuel.
This guys videos have gotten good!
My brain is smarter after watching this video. Thank you for sharing!
Excellent, informative and accurate video.
The process of making ethanol makes more population and cost more to produce that crude oil.
Adding information about high mileage oil would be helpful. Speaking with an oil engineer, the base materials are larger, preventing consumption of the oil. The oil weights are the same, just larger base materials. Then additives such as zinc, moly, tungsten for the extreme pressure. These prevent wear!
Scotty is a national treasure. 🤞🏾
We love your channel Scotty 👍
Nowadays in Europe the gasoline is known by the amount of volume % of ethanol, not the octane number anymore. 95 (89 in USA), became E10 (10% ethanol and 90% gasoline) and 98 (93 in USA) became E5 (5% ethanol and 95% gasoline).
