rev up your engines, Elite skills should I keep my
oil-burning 2010 xB 188 thousand miles or get rid of it, well if it's in good
shape otherwise oil is cheap as they age modern engines will often burn some oil
if you're burning said a quart oil every thousand miles or 800 miles, oil is cheap
just keep buying oil the spark plugs eventually will foul out, but on that
vehicle changing the spark plugs is an absolutely nothing job it's so easy to
do, I'd keep it as it still running okay I got customers with those things that they
started burning oil and four or five years later they're still driving them and just
adding oil as they need, don't let it get more than a quart or quart and a half low
while you're driving it so carry some spares in the trunk, but not really a
reason to get rid of it, cow Moo says my 2007 Chevy Colorado has some milky
substance on the oil cap, can it be the head gasket it only has one hundred twenty
six thousand five hundred miles, well it depends on how you drive and where you
drive, if you don't drive your vehicle much you do like my wife used to when
she used to teach she drove a couple miles back and forth to school so
doesn't give the engine time to warm up and blow everything out, byproduct of burning
gasoline in Earth's atmosphere is water vapor ,and you can get some water
vapor in there it'll make the top of the oil cap milky, and that can happen if you
don't drive it enough, but if you drive it normally it's generally means the head
gasket is starting to blow, and I have a very good video for that called how to
tell if your head gasket is blown watch it you can go to Amazon you can buy one
of those head gasket leak testing kits for like twenty nine bucks when they're
on sale they work perfectly fine and they'll tell you could starting to blow or
not chavez says is a vehicle that's
repaired after frame damage reliable, it really depends, some guys are really good
at frame repair, some guys are crappy how bad was the frame damaged that's
what you have to do, you have to understand how far did they go, what did
they actually repair, realize that modern cars have what's called unibody
construction, so there's no actual frame the car in the body are all unibody, so
that's why it's called unibody construction so if
stuff is bent here and there and they can bend it back and fix it fine, but if the
whole main part and the bottom is twisted and stuff, and then you have to
understand too what about the rest of the vehicle is it crushed in four or five
feet and if so I'd never fix it, bary says why does Toyota's exhaust
manifold face the radiator, if you think about it
really doesn't matter because you're driving and the engine is sucking air
through the radiator first then it goes to the engine, the air is traveling in that
direction so you really don't care, and if you're stopped and it gets hot your
cooling fans are sucking it through and blowing air on the engine right there so
it really doesn't hurt anything you know it's just kind of an engineering thing
it really does hurt anything that way cuz the air is always flowing that way
unless you drive backwards all the time, if you're driving backwards all the time
yes it would be a bad design, but you know your not driving 40 50 60 miles an hour
going in Reverse so it doesn't really matter
nexter says Scotty should I keep or sell my 06 Volvo s60 all
wheel drive 2.5 to get a Toyota or Honda, I
just want it till it dies there's one hundred ninety one thousand miles, you
know if I were you I would just drive it till it dies, those are fun cars to drive,
but they're Volvo's and they're endless money pits as they age, but yours seems
to be treating you okay drive it, cuz you're gonna get nothing for it with
that mileage, you're going to get absolutely nothing then you know Volvo now I got
bought by the Chinese and they claim they're only gonna be making electric
and hybrid cars, so if it runs drive it and then get a Toyota when it finally
give out, you never know maybe it will last a few years who knows, Michael Earl says
what do you think of a Mazda miata 94, their pretty good cars you know
they can be fun to drive around, I just had a guy do my brakes now e
brake won't work and it worked before they messed up the rear brakes when he did
the job, yeah you know that's unfortunate, there's
a lot of guys out there don't know what
they're doing and call themselves in quotes mechanics, a lot of modern cars
the emergency brake system is part of the caliper and so when you pull on your
emergency brake it actually twists the caliper piston to squeeze the brakes, it's
a cheaper way of making them like you take
a Toyota most of those they'll have disc brakes in the back, but then they have drum
brakes on the inside that are just for the emergency brake, better system but of
course it costs more to make, on those mazda is what you have to do is there's a
special tool and you have to turn the piston and the caliper in while it's pressed in
the tools really don't cost that much, I got one from Harbor Freight I think it
cost me 35 bucks and it works great, it's solid steel you
fit it in the hole and when you turn the ratchet on it, it both squeezes it in and
turns it at the same time, so it turns into the screw, it's all the guy needed
he screwed up, stay away from him that's for sure, but they can be pretty good
cars you know, so if you never want to miss another one of my new car repair
