rev up your engines, Storm sailor says what do you think about the auto industry moving
towards electric vehicles, okay I've got videos on electric cars, I just did one
on why I think hydrogen fuel cells will be more over the pure electric cars with
batteries, because hydrogen fuel cell is an electric car, it just uses hydrogen in a
fuel cell to make electricity, the problem with electric cars are if
you're having a battery, you need to big heavy battery to store electricity
electricity is hard to store that's why we have gas cars, gasoline is real easy
to the store, small little tank and get you 400 miles, not so you need a gigantic
electric battery to go 200 miles, so I think that it'll be a small thing for a
while electric cars, and if they don't want to go to electric cars, you see
Toyota just came out with a hydrogen electric car, they sell in California
or they lease them in California, and if they decide to do electrolysis and
turn seawater into hydrogen and oxygen and then sell the gases and use hydrogen
gas, that wouldn't be a bad move, because any car you're driving today can run
really well on hydrogen gas it can be easily converted, and then when all those
cars are worn out, if we had fuel cell cars we would have all the
infrastructure of hydrogen station, there's already hydrogen refueling
stations in California and you can google it and you'll see, they look just
like gas pumps and they fill them up just looks like a gas pump, takes five
minutes to fill it up, where with a pure electric car with a battery in it, it
can take you even in a Tesla superstation 58 minutes to recharge it
and at home at 112 volts it could take three and half days, so I
really think fuel cell cars may be the future, and it's all gonna be in the far
future anyways, it's gonna take a long time to turn it over and the oil
companies are gonna fight it tooth and nail, so I think it's gonna be a
long time before people are actually driving massive volumes of electric cars, they
still have way too many bugs in them, Casey Thompson says Scotty I'm looking
to get my first car, what should I get that's somewhat sporty and still reliable of
course it depends on money and all the other stuff that you want to do, but if you
want something that sporty and reliable, get a Toyota, you know they're really
reliable and you can get sporty type ones or maybe a Honda and get a
sporty type one, if you want an actual sports car go out and get a Mustang, yeah
you know it all depends on how much money you want to spend and what you want
to get too, you know some people think, oh well you know I'm gonna get a nice
sporty car for 15 grand, not a new one it would have to be used
but if you're talking brand new, yeah I'd say get a Toyota or get a Honda or if you
don't mind spending the money on a Mustang with a v8 engine, but you know
all depends on what you want to spend, what kind of gas mileage you want to get
and then do the research on what you're gonna get for the money, because sporty
is a very relative term, but the Toyotas I mean they're nice and they can run a
really long time, get a standard transmission one and then they drive a
lot sporty-er, any car is like that, even you get a Honda Civic, you get it with a
standard transmission that's a fast little car and it's sporty to drive
around so, you know there's nothing wrong with that,
Jared says Scotty, my 2014 Dodge Avenger has a 5 cylinder misfire and a number 5
it needs an ignition coil, I see people replaced them but I can't find it, what's
my best option, ok just google it and you'll see where
the engine and where the parts are, those coils are hidden away, well if you google
it or YouTube it, and you'll see some guys show you probably exactly where on
that engine to change it, because you got to know which one is number 5, you google it
you get the information like that, just realize that if you do have a misfire in
cylinder number five, it isn't necessarily the coil, it can be the fuel
injector, it could be the head gasket going, it can be a vacuum leak,
there's many things that can cause a misfire, but of course the simplest thing
to do if you really want to do a test, without spending any money at all
is take the number five coil off, swap it with the number one, and drive it and
then if it now has a number one misfire, you know it's the coil, do the cheapest
obvious things first, that's what I always tell people, Just for Hacks, what are your thoughts on
Cataclean for cleaning out catalytic converters, okay well it can actually
work, it is a cleaner you pour in a gas tank, and then you drive it, if your
catalytic converter is minorly clogged up, it could fix it, I've had
customers use that and it fix it and they passed the inspections, but
realize that little can diluted in your gas tank, how much is it going to do diluted
your better running full strength cleaner through the fuel injection
system, then you are diluting stuff in the gas tank, now when I clean them for my
customers, I use my air tank with a compressor and I got a special gauge
machine that hooks up to the fuel rail and it sprays the cleaner directly and
the engine runs on it, and that actually works a lot better, but if you want to
try Cataclean buy it and put it in the tank and your cat isn't dirty that
bad, it can work I've seen it work, doesn't cost that much, I know some of them
say they guarantee that it'll pass, well what the heck if they say that and it
doesn't work, give them a email and send your money back, I don't know if they
actually do that, but I know a lot of them say, I'll give you your money back if
it doesn't work, so what the heck if it doesn't work get your money back from
the company, so if you never want to miss another one of my new car repair videos,
remember to ring that Bell!
