It was not that long ago that Zach was shredding the S14 on the Los Angeles Crest when all of a sudden he heard a very alarming sound coming from the engine bay… today we are taking a closer look at the S14’s engine and determining what the problem is. Let’s hope it’s not GG for the RB25!!!

Jobe: "unfortunately we're gonna have to rebuild this engine."
Donut Fans: "Hell Yea! More episodes of Money Pit!"
There are two Money Pit candidates sitting in that garage, and they should both get a season.
@@theofficialsikris the miata and trueno?
@@jerodwolford2743 The S14 and the AE86 (Trueno). The Miata is pretty well dunzos me thinks. Would be nice if they did seasons for the other cars, and then had a Donut track day event where they rented a track for a day, and had fans come out and race the Donut crew in the Money Pit cars. They could make a lot of dosh doing that.
@@theofficialsikris that could be awesome! I'm from UK so I can't attend to it, though is really an awesome idea!

In the old days, we used very long screwdrivers with wooden handles. We took the metal end and placed it in various places on the engine and put our ear to the wooden handle side. Based on where we heard the worst noise is where we started our looking. Today, you have all of these wonderful tools to help troubleshoot your engines. It's fascinating to watch you guys do it differently!
My dad still does this haha, he calls it the poor man's stethoscope. I used it to diagnose an alternator bearing that was going out
That is an amazing tip for someone on a budget like me!
I’ve been doing this since my dad showed me when I was younger!
maybe take a piezo sensor and glue it to screwdriver then connect to oscilloscope.this is a cheap way to isolate belt/pully noises to isolate but i bet could work for this,i also took mechanic stethescope and removed the metal rod and added screwdriver to dull the sound this may also help isolate if its top end/bottom end,just some ideas
This works with screwdrivers that have plastic handles as well, at least for checking fuel injectors :)
Me who doesn't even own a car: *Hmm yes, this sound is most undesirable, yes.*
Yup! That's the one. It's the bear rings. We have to rebuild the block with new intakes and maybe a few kittens.
Same here

I've seen this person from a meme channel.
i can relate
Me too
Jobe: "unfortunately we're gonna have to rebuild this engine."
Me: "Shit, that means i gotta rebuild mine as well."
You can drive for years with minor engine knock. It’s not always fatal right away.
@@angelgjr1999 rather not lmao
Paying with both Money, Blood and Sweat
@@angelgjr1999 I'm sorry did you see that oil pan?
@@angelgjr1999 yeah. my 04 mazda 3 has had a bad knock for like 20k miles now. its not worth enough to fix
heres a old hot rodder trick: take the plug wires off each cylinder at a time. if it stops knocking, its probably a rod knock, and its on THAT cylinder.
So you just don't allow it to fire and then it won't knock?
Take the plug out, and you wony have any compression, so the rod won't have anything to push it back and make it hit the cylinder wall. In theory.
@@Tom_KTM I think if you just yank the plug wire and it stops knocking it's your ignition timing being too advanced, but I don't get why that would be only on one cylinder. I suppose if there isn't any spark then the piston wouldn't slam back down from the combustion onto the crank though, so that might make sense. I'd think it would still slop around in there but I guess the decrease in forces might make it knock less
@@christopheringram4118 not taking the plug out, just disconnect the wires going to them
@@Tom_KTM taking away the fire extinguishes the pressure by taking away the expansion cycle for the affected cylinder. It isn’t a fix but it is a patch. Basically the down journal just becomes a driven cylinder. It is what happens when you hear of drag racers “being down a cylinder” or disconnecting wires to run in displacement restricted classes.
zach is a humble dude. like he genuinely just likes cars but accepts that its expensive and just prevails vs that one dude that buys a stock dodge amd thinks theyre a call guy. zachs too real

"luckily my RB is making an awful racket"
Edit: My phone's auto correct still hasn't figured out that RB is a more likely word for me to write than FB
Well it isnt that big of a deal untill it messes up the block or bends rods it is also a great time to upgrade piston rods or your crank shaft
@@garystump5680 it sucks but rod knock's not the end of the world for a mechanic with a full shop. Just means it's time for a rebuild before you need a completely new motor.
@@RidinDirtyRollinBurnouts knock on wood never had an engine start to rod knock and I beat the piss out of my cars
it’s ZACH
Seeing how the crankshaft and bearings interact from underneath may be the single most enlightening scene in all of car CZcams. I could never visualize how those pieces worked until just now.
Wow this video is amazing. Your explanations and descriptions are fantastic.
I know nothing about cars, and you made this easy to understand, and informative. Your passion really shines through in what you do.
The boredom and carelessness James had in the ad is hilarious
He wish he had zebra before and was vibing with life
That was probably the best ad plug I've ever seen in a youtube video, I actually watched the whole thing!
I started skipping the ad and went back to watch it when I processed what I saw.
This is a trap to not skip it huh
it was great...rofl
"What do you do when your engine is making a terrible sound"
*me turning my music up even more*
Send it, til it comes out the side of the block
I love how you explain all the pieces involved, so there's no gaps left that I have to go research elsewhere. Informative, yet concise. Thank you :)
I kinda love how they're telling us to not spend money on their own merch in the zebra ad, saying don't be like us and wearing their own merchandise.
You know, when the fans said they wanted more Silvia content on money pit, we didn’t want knocking sounds and a very sad Zach Jobe
Edit: thank you guys so much for the quarantine content. Thank you so so much.

I knew it wood be the bearings because my car had the same issues half a year ago. The noise was the same ind I was hoping it wasn’t the old bearings as well, but is was 😅 luckily it’s all done, new crank, 2 new rods and that it.
Been there, done that, swapped the engine. First car, a 61 Dodge Lancer. I worked on it for free to help out the lady who owned it when I was 15 & 16. She ran it out of oil and the engine seized. She got a ride home took out the title and gave it to me as thanks for keeping it running as long as it did. I went to it, threw in 3 quarts of oil and drove it home. The bearings were toast. I put in new bearings from the bottom but the crank was flat spotted. Drove it with a quart of motorhoney in it for a few months then my Uncle and I swapped the 170CI for a junk yard 225 CI truck engine. Cheaper than rebuilding the original engine. Didn't quite fit so I lost the heater. Drove it for 3 to 4 years and sold it for $500 in 73. I kind of wish I could find one now for nostalgia. That car taught me so much about wrenching. Late in life became an aircraft mechanic.
I just started having a knocking sound like yours coming from my R/T, and i thought itd be impossible to figure out on my own, but pmce again watching Donut videos has given me the confidence to poke around and see what might be up.
My man Zach is such a passionate crying for his baby getting broke. Give this man a hug
bro i wouldnt give a hug, i would never do that!
i would give him 10
Broke? He's probably making more money with these videos as he's losing for his car parts
@@Andrei-cp5jr i dont think he meant like broke in losing money think he meant broken
@@Andrei-cp5jr you misunderstood my words, i was saying that beacause his baby ( engine) is broken
How can you not have compassion for a man when his pride and joy is broken?! DID YOU SEE THE LOOK IN HIS EYES?!
Me: “A few sparkles isn’t too bad in an older engine”
*sees huge glob of rod bits*
“Holy shit that’s bad”
I blew up a two stroke 90’s jetski engine Last summer, and I looked in the spark plug hole with a phone camera and could move metal around with a screwdriver. I took the head off to find a large amount of large chunks of metal; aluminum from the block, and iron from the rod that blew up. It’s a push pin rod, so it’s not supposed to come apart, but you wouldn’t know if you saw it because the lower half was broken off
I blew up my Mazda 3 engine and I looked at the oil pan and I was like OMG because I found a hole piston rod hanging so I had to do a engine swap which was painfully difficult
When you think “ahh, I love my diesel” then remember you don’t own a diesel.
My car sounded JUST like that. It was a balancing weight on the torque converter that Un-welded itself and was hitting the trans bell housing.
The amount of anxiety in this video genuinely makes me sad and empathetic for Zach.
True..... I've experienced some messed up stuff and the only thing that comes this close that isn't collectors car is like having and earthquake and seeing your gas plumbing to your house pop out of the ground
That leaves me to beg the question: how to over engineer an engine and or a transmission ? And can it be made into a video? I have yet to see anyone make it an interesting video topic without it just mentioning just mods for more power and torque.
@@NekoWinters uhhh...thats way too specific. care to explain?
@@frigglebiscuit7484 what is there to explain, read the comment
Anxiety? I don’t think there’s anxiety in this video. Just sadness lol.

Very nice.

i’ve been a donut fan long enough to see a couple hosts come and a couple hosts go. Jobe absolutely makes this channel for me these days. nothing gets me more hyped than seeing his lovely mug in the thumbnail every wednesday. the dude is mad talented, both at working on cars as well as explaining them-and he gets bonus points for his ability to make all of it genuinely entertaining. keep killing it, brother 🤘🤘

Next time on Money Pit:
“Is rebuilding your engine worth it?”
Well, I paid $200 bucks for my car. So not for me, I'd make money just scrapping the thing. Its a nice 2009 chevy aveo. (Someone needed bail money and I benefit from that)
Is it?
@@burntham8752 Depends if you want to keep it. CTK factor plays the major part. Then again selling not fixed, even parting out, can be a huge hassle as well.
@@burntham8752 ive got a 95 suzuki vitara. not worth much but that car has centermental value, so yes in some cases. tho my engine didnt have a spun bearing, just your usual wear and tear
@@tomboyhorse1236 peace, it's spelled "sentimental". And if it does hold sentimental value for you, a rebuild is worth it. Those Suzuki's are troopers.
I teach mechanics at a college in the UK... I'll be using this video in my lessons to visually explain and let them hear what worn out big end bearings sound/look like. Cheers Zac!
That’s acc so cool your the coolest prof ever
Awesome to hear! It's tough to find good videos of actual rod knock! Figured I needed to let everyone hear the lovely sounds
💯🤟✌️
My teacher had an old truck with flywheel teeth ripped off that wouldnt always start. Took us outside to hear it. Will never forget that sound. Best part was it started while he was cranking and was like "ooh i gotta move this while its running!"
* Just an FYI for people, "College" in the UK = the American equivalent of the latter 2 years of High School, NOT University.
I would love to see a video of the parts going into the machine shop and what makes a machine shop a good one to go to... Thank you:)

@@hatman4818 I thought the same, but it's actually a good thing! I couldn't believe my lying eyes, the politicians doing something good for once, it appears to be a bill targeting the removal of EPA regulations on motorsports, the bill will remove the environmental restrictions placed on street cars from competition cars, so now racecars don't have to have stupid little V6's because the EPA said so. Meaning race derived road cars, like the Ford GT, might be able to skirt environmental restrictions and we might get a proper V8 in the next one.
@@chickenpotpie4045 I’m from Canada so the whole situation doesn’t effect me but from what I know the EPA are trying to make it near impossible to have a street legal race car by putting way more strict emissions laws on modified stock cars
Yes please that’s a great idea. Basically an up to speed on the whole thing with the epa and the rpm act would be amazing as I’m sure a lot of people don’t fully understand it (me included)
@@chickenpotpie4045 The rpm act from what I've seen is gonna kill all aftermarket tuning parts companys,making all aftermarket parts illegal even track/off road use ONLY.

“I hope you had a good time. I had a terrible time.” Is such a mood whenever someone is with you when you work on your car. Although its sad to see it lowkey broken, its good to see Zach wrenching on the s14 on moneypit and cant wait to see him rebuild this beast.
Great content, learnt something today!
Thank you for explaining this stuff... just enough info to help me understand what to look for 😎🤙
Alt title: What do do when your gas engine sounds like a diesel engine
true
Was gonna say, sounds just like a vw tdi 😂
Plot twist: This thing been knocking for months so he pitched the money pit idea just to work his way all the way around to his s14(right?). Well played Sir.
Pitched? "Hey Jobe!, does your old beater still start?"
Played the long game on Donut.

that advert was BRILLIANT xD. I'd love to know how you come up with the ideas of the adverts and how you make each one different
I had the same issue with my VW Touareg a couple of years ago. I instantly noticed the rod noise right as I was leaving the workshop where I treated the car with an engine oil flush during a scheduled maintenance service. Regrettably to this day, my suspect is the engine oil flush.

rlly respect you guys helping out ur target demographic an not just milking us yk. like it’s pre obvious most viewers of the channel are younger car enthusiasts who don’t have a lot of cash. teaching us how to maintain cars ourselves and making ad deals with companies that save us money. lotta love for u guys
blow this shit up so donut see this yall
Literally why I came to this video so is can know if I need to learn to rebuild my engine
Good point! So many car vids are basically people showing off how they spent daddy's money, but what about us who can't afford to blow up our vape-chariots?
Im 15 and I cant afford a car, cant drive, or even legally own a car, so its very useful to see how to maintain a car, install different parts, and how to know what to buy for a car

I am happy MoneyPit had an episode this week, but I am sad that Zach's baby needs some serious work.
You can fix it, we will watch!
Every Honda guy has to be like “that rocking noise isn’t normal?”
nothing like a nice clackity-clackin valvetrain in the morning!
Dude literally 😂
From my personnal experience from a 1.5 l sohc eco with a twisted valve on the cylinder 2 i welded the pedal for about 200 km on the freeway (in france)
It lasted 3000 km in total pretty good 👍🏽
My first car was a subaru that died of rod knock and now everytime my 8th gen Si's valve train gets a little noisy I experience horrific ptsd. I have taken it in to be looked over two separate times thinking it had a knock.
If a honda has a knock, 9/10 its because of western oil. it causes valve knock. put in the proper eastern oil it was designed with, and the knock will go away. and, yes this really is a thing.
Came back to watch this again celebrating the revival of my n54 135i.
Had my engine spin a bearing or 2 around the time this video released and it took a few months to find a new engine and a place to swap the engine in.
My car comes back this week and I couldnt be happier.
This guys a great mechanic, not to mention also a fantastic video producer. I am no mechanic but this is my go to video car guy when I need some accurate clear direction !
im a mechanic, and id just like to say that there are quite a few ways to distinguish between engine noises without tearing the engine apart. Piston slap generally is a lot more noticeable when the engines cold and will heavily diminish or even disappear when the engine warms up. Rod knock will vary in frequency with RPM and will get a lot quieter if you disable the affected cylinder(unplug the injector or coil for that cylinder). Main bearing knock will be a lot worse under load and wont vary as much with RPM, it also will probably get worse if you disable the cylinder closest to the bad bearing, and sounds a lot deeper than rod knock. Lifter tick is generally pretty easy to tell that its coming from the top of the engine.
Have you ever what worn wrist pins sound like?
Thanks Brian!
After researching my own Toyota with nasty sounds, I can add VVTI clacking which usually oges away after a few seconds (once oil prssure is up) and on some cars, a leaked timing tensioner part that allows the tensioner pulley to slap back down on it. all audible from the FRONT of the engine with a stethoscope/screwdriver-o-scope.
in need of some advice. i got engine knock the other day but it went away ( im new to cars so i didnt think much of it) few days later im driving down the free way and it comes back. and i decided to drive it home. once i did. it stopped again comepletely. im confused becasue people tell me engine knocking shouldnt stop. i know im behind on m y spark plug change. so im hoiping that fixes it but to change the sparks i gotta wait until a mechanic is available because you gotta raise the engine to get to the sparks. i just want to know if my car is safe to drive even tho i dont ahve that knocking noise. i feel it comes when i hit high RPMS
