Rev up your engines, 2004 says I had a moldy smell in my car all
winter, I just changed my cabin air filter and it smell great, I didn't even have to
use lysol, cabin air filter, really we should call them the forgotten air filter cuz you
don't see them their hiding inside there, most people don't even know they have one,
and whenever I change them on customers cars, oh man sometimes their just full of mold and
bacteria and leaves and one even had a bunch of bird stuff in it when I took it apart,
and one was so bad that I guess that it hadn't been changed in years and there were actually
beetle larva that were inside it so, if your worried about smells and stuff, find where
your cabin air filter is, most you can get them so you can pop them out in less than
a minute, now some cars are insane you got to take half the car apart some luxury cars
and their terrible for making them that way but find out how to take yours out and it's
real easy and the simple thing a lot of times is, a lot of stuff just falls on them, you
can take them out and whack it on the wall, suck them with a vacuum and put them back
in again, 11 says I got a 16 year old optima red top
battery in my off road car, I keep it on a tender but 16 years is amazing, yes it is
amazing, and I was first amazed by those spiral optima batteries, the spiral is the most efficient
shape in nature, you know that's why those seashells are spiral and snails are spiral,
and when they came up with those red top optimas they were great batteries, but as time went
on somebody bought the company bought them out, they went cheaper and now their terrible
batteries, because I've had discussions with guys that work in auto parts stores, and I
said even last year with one of the guys in the back room when I was buying stuff, he
told me the truth cuz I'm in the back room in the commercial section not with a private
customer but the commercial and everybody tells the truth there cuz what do we care
we're fixing cars we want to know the truth, and I said what's up with these optima batteries,
and the guys says, yeah every time we sell them now within a year or two or maybe 3 they
all come back bad, ever since that one company bought it from the other the quality just
went down, those old ones were great there's no arguing that, I was thinking of buying
one for one of my cars, and then I found out right when I was going to buy one it was when
they started to make them bad, so I gave up with that idea cuz I'm not going to spend
that kind of money on a battery to find out that it really doesn't last any longer than
the regular batteries cuz the quality went down, sometimes what's in a name is not all
that much if you follow the history of that name,
hal 9000, should I buy a hummer h2, I think some people just say this to try and troll
scotty, well people whether they troll me or not, you never know what somebody is looking
for and what they want, if their joking around, if their not joking around, but I just had
a guy bring be an h2 to buy about a month ago he was buying a used one, and he got a
real good deal on it and he understood it's going to be a weekend toy and I told him go
ahead and buy it, he was getting the thing for like $5k, everything in it ran decently
I told him their gas hogs and being a gm product their electronics are terrible, but as a toy
you know theirs nothing with getting something like that, don't think your going to buy one
and your going to drive it every day and put 30k miles trouble free every year on it that's
not going to happen unless you put a fortune into the thing, they don't make them anymore
for very good reasons, the army militarized them but they don't care about gas mileage
they got tanks and so fuel means nothing to them and a lot of armor so, you know they
don't care they got a big diesel engine that can pull that stuff around more, you never
know if people are trolling me or not but I always try to take the question seriously
cuz people are probably serious when they ask me a questions if they should buy something
or not and I'll give them a serious answer, xxx royal says what do you think about the
300 hemi is it reliable thanks, well the hemi is the car itself isn't, but the hemi engine
is if you change the oil regularly and take care of it those are very good engines, it's
old technology their push rod engines, but they put out a ton of horsepower and their
pretty reliable if you change the oil regularly and don't overheat the engine and take care
of them it's very reliable, but the rest of the car no when they get older they fall apart
and cost a fortune to fix, walle says who is on mouse patrol in your garage the cool
cat, well generally nobody goes into the garage but me although one day I did open it up in
the morning and a little barn owl flew out it somehow got in their in the daytime when
I was working and it flew right out and they love eating mice, I know their in there that
or rats cuz I find little droppings all over the place, they get in there it's an old garage
I mean some of the doors are this far off the ground and they can easily get in and
out if they want, if it's raining I guess they go in there you know, cats can't get
in it's not big enough for a cat to get in but it's big enough for a mouse or rat to
get inside, if I really cared I'd get those sonic devices cuz they do work and I could
stick in it there, but I don't really care let the mice live somewhere, just hope their
not rats and it's just mice, so if you never want to miss another one of
my new car repair videos, remember to ring that bell!
