Rev up your engines, johnny asks, what's the scariest car you ever
worked on, ok well I'd have to say the scariest car I've
ever worked on was the first generation toyota prius,
and here's why, that had a hybrid battery inside and it had 288 volts in it, to give
you an idea, to work on them you got to have mutlimeters like this one, you can't use cheap
stuff, you got to use expensive stuff, but realize that 288 volts can kill you, most
cars of course are just 12 volts, 12 volts is very low power, you can stick your tongue
on a positive terminal and your finger on a negative and nothing is going to happen
to you, it wouldn't hurt you at all on a 12 volt system,
but with 288 volts that can kill you, hey your house has 120 volts that can kill
you too, well imagine 288 volts it can easily kill you, if you want to work on those cars,
you have to buy special electrician gloves, their 2 layers, first theirs an inner layer
that you put over your hands then theirs an outerlayer and you have to check the inner
layer every time you work on them, you got to blow them up and then if you hold them
and you see them leaking out somewhere, that means theirs a pinhole somewhere,
well electricity can go through that pinhole and kill you, so ever time you work on a car
you got to put on these fancy gloves, check them to make sure their not leaking, and then
be very careful that you don't short any positive to ground when you're messing with 288 volts,
believe me when the first time I worked on one of those things, it was a very scary experience,
and from what I've read, some of these responders, they see a vehicle that's an electric car,
hybrid car like a Prius, and they know it's got 288 volts, their going to be very leary
about trying to reach in a rescue people if something is shorted outside and they grab
some of the metal and they get 288 volt, so really that's the scariest thing and I don't
really mess around with them much, I'll work on the other parts of the cars,
but I tend to stay away from the 288 volt systems on those things because that's deadly
voltage it can kill you, Van says scotty I saw the video where you
said not to use additives in your gas, what about the Gumout complete fuel system cleaner,
it's a good fuel system cleaner but that said, most people never need it,
if you buy a used car and it's a piece of junk and nobody ever changed the filter, the
oil was never changed and the engine is all carboned up inside, sure a cleaner can help
it somewhat, or if you live in a place where they have
really crappy gas like the guys tell me in Cuba and like in Pakistan a lot of their gas
is crap and you got to put additives in it because the gas burns so poorly it clogs up
the engine, but here in the US, I got 3 well 2 toyotas
and a lexus sitting in the driveway and they work perfectly fine, but if you buy a used
car and you don't know it not a bad idea, but normally you never need to put cleaner
in a car, the additives that you need are generally in the gas they let you buy if you
buy quality gasoline, Panito says scotty should I get a CVT or manual
2018 civic coupe as a base model, I live in New York City I was thinking CVT, rethink,
get a standard, the one problem with hondas has always been that their automatic transmissions
were always somewhat weak, those CVT transmissions are much more complex than the automatics
and the problem with honda is their always trying to make their own transmissions which
is kind of a mistake, most manufacturers these days don't even make their own transmissions,
they buy them from somebody else, like the Chrysler rams and their vans now, their using
aisin a Japanese transmission, a lot of the Volvos are aisin Japanese transmissions, allison
is an Indiana company and they make truck transmissions for all kinds of truck companies,
honda makes their own and their kind of weak, I would go with the manual on that, it's going
to last a lot longer, belcher says what's your opinion on the v6
ford mustand 2003 era, well you know I like the way the cars look, but I don't like the
v6 engine, their kind of a weak engine, they don't hold up as long as the v8s, they certainly
don't have the power that the v8s had, I'm not a real fan of the v6s in those,
I like the v8s I mean, to me the mustang has a rumble of a v8 and the 6 it's like meh,
you know if you're a slower driver and you like the way the car looks and drives, go
right ahead and get one but, I like the v8s in those things,
potta, scotty I just went through a body of water and it looks like theirs steam coming
out of the radiator, the car acts and seems fine but the steam has be worried,
you probably don't have to worry, only one of two things can happen,
one you go through water, water gets on the radiator, the radiator gets rid of heat, so
if you got a bunch of water on the radiator, it will eventually steam up from the heat
and then it will eventually just evaporate off and it will stop doing it,
that's normal that will happen, but let's say your up north somewhere where the water
is really cold and your car is really hot, if you do go through a bunch of water, ice
cold water hitting the plastic or the metal on the radiator can make old brittle ones
crack and start to leak, so if you find out days later that your still
getting steam, it's damaged and you want to have it pressure tested for leaks and stuff,
but if it goes away, that just happens from the water getting on the radiator and it's
got to come off somehow and the hot radiator will just steam it off,
so if you never want to miss another one of my new car repair videos, remember to ring
that bell!
