In this video I provide tips and insight into maintaining your car. This will not only make your car last longer, but it will be more efficient and use less fuel as well. As you can see in this video I’m a big proponent of vehicle maintenance, in my mind it’s much better to find the problems early rather than waiting for something to break.
My friends at TRQ let me use their studio and production staff to make this video for you. Thank you TRQ!

Cool
15-20+ years experience and still talking about basic maintenance 😂
You would be surprised at how a scope can diagnose and you can fix the cars that can’t be fixed. It’s amazing!
The automotive scope allows you to diagnose problems with a hands off approach. But it’s like the first time you drove an 18-wheeler, you learn that you need training!
The scan tools and scopes we have today are simply amazing. Start with an old Chevy with a mysterious misfire that you can’t feel. They wasted money replacing everything under the hood including exhaust and fuel pump. A relative compression with a scope shows something different about that #4 cylinder! It’s different than the rest. Compression is good, and then you find a bad roller lifter and damage camshaft lobe. 30 minutes this truck is diagnosed 100%. No doubt about it. The truck the dealer and two other shops couldn’t fix.
NOT all cars have the engine oil type/viscosity on the cap. You tell people to clean the battery terminals but you don’t tell them HOW
