Where do you find the lithium products that you use Scotty? I can't find it!😢
I wonder what you think of Amsoil and there products? 🦉
Scotty I wish you talk more about the geo metro I know your not a fan of gm but I got a geo metro 1994 automatic I know it’s sad that’s it’s not a standard but it gets great gas the only thing it does it dies when you come to a stop if you don’t put your foot on gas just a little it’s a great car only paid 500$ and it’s got 130k miles. I cleaned the egr valve and nothing so I think it’s something in the fuel line maybe a element from the fuel filter
@@SkateSkate-zw2hv Bro I'd start cleaning your MAF, then your upstream 02 sensor. Spark plugs and distributor rotor, and I bet your dying problem goes away. Could also be your TPS (throttle position sensor) but don't think those really go out too much o. The metro,
@@kevinbaker2470 thank you baker your this has done me many of favors I’ll check it all out when I wake up. Do you have a metro?
Scotty was my mechanic when I lived in Houston. My 93 Accord ran better than it did from the factory after he replaced the timing belt. I always wondered how he made money because he would usually spend 1/2 hour giving me DIY tips when I picked up my cars from him. Scott has always made it his mission to inform the consumer so they can avoid scams
Scotty was your personal mechanic? You fell into a golden fix it pit...LOL...

WINNER!!
He watched the "will you be here tomorrow" safety training video (that has made it's way to youtube, like every thing else)

I've been using PB for years. It's nice to be validated by Scott-ay! Stuff really does run uphill.
I just wish it did’nt smell so bad.
Is it comparable to Aerokroil? I bought that one cuz the name is interesting and the can is orange.

@@brokentombot 476h47fff
@@brokentombot I've never used Aerokroil. I may give it a try next time I buy penetrating fluid. But honestly, I've been sold on PB for about 15 years now. If I have project with rusty bolts, I'll generally hit them daily for a few days before the job and I rarely have any fastener issues. Granted, I don't live in the north or near the coasts where everything is corroded beyond recognition.
I watch a video with Scotty everyday before work and for some strange reason, gets me motivated to work! Such an enthusiastic guy, love the videos!
Hmm, perceptions vary. What you call enthusiasm I call yelling. I wish he would calm down.
Scotty is right again!
My father-in-law owned a mechanic shop that worked on only American cars, and mostly classic cars. He told me to use Sea Foam on my '02 Infiniti I35.
Every seal imaginable started leaking oil... That's the story of how I now own an Acura TL.
We need to protect Scotty because he’s the only mechanic that we can trust nowadays. 👍

Living in New England, PB Blaster will always be a star in my garage.
PB is great for loosening up heavily salted control arm/suspension bolts!
Used to use it, couldn't find it, bought something called liquid wrench, which seems to work just as well, if you can't find PB.
Scotty, the workaholic. That's his vice 😄👍
I used that seafoam to do an induction cleaning on my old ram, after fogging out the walmart parking lot that thing ran better than it ever had.
It worked wonders on my Hyundai Sonata too I think it had a clog injector
I use it in my lawnmower.
I drink the stuff and I've never felt better

Scotty is the voice of reason, no malarkey just the facts
He's a good man who still visits his mom in upstate NY, old-school 👍🏽👊🏽
Pb blaster is popular in the northeast. Every auto parts store has it. The only issue with that stuff is the smell and it doesn’t seem to ever dissipate.
Popular in the southwest, harbor Freight sells it and it's always in homedepot
I was going to say that true true get it on your hands it'll stick to you longer than diesel or anything else you've ever handled except for maybe s***
PA here. Have hundreds of cans at lowes at any given time. I actually like the smell kinda!
I won't ever buy it again because of the smell. You can't wash other clothes with it on them.
pb blaster is great stuff! My dad use to use it all the time, he taught me to spray some on any rusty bolts before even trying to loosen them. Sometimes the really stuck nuts and bolts we would spray them and let them sit over night. Now in my mid 30s, I always have a can of this stuff in the garage at all times.
Many penetrating lubes work better with time, so when and where you can let it sit a few minutes or longer.
Me too, I stopped using wd40 and went to pb, way better stuff!!!
Growing up in Michigan and working on cars, PB Blaster was a staple in every mechanic's toolbox.
Yeah I'm from North Central Washington in the Civic Northwest we didn't really see it around our area till after 2000
We call PB panther piss
LPS-1 is a similar product, but it has better lubrication properties than WD-40, and dries so it doesn't attract dirt.
@@markh.6687 youdon't really use wd-40 for rusted bolts on a car or elsewhere as it does not penetrate well. it is best on things like hinges or other minor metal items that need some lubrication but are not totally rusted. pb blaster is better on rusted bolts or nuts,especially if you can leave it for a short time before removal.
@@hellshade2 I've used WD on lightly rusted items; LPS-1 for the bad stuff, since I have it handy. Have used PB and it is better than WD-40 on rust by a mile. Looks like Home Depot and Advance Auto Pars carry PB in store.
PB blaster is definitely great for rusted bolts. I also used it to free my sticking hood release that would stick open.
Every mechanic has told me the same thing about the A/C sealer. That being said, I put it in my truck approximately 10 yrs ago. A/C stills blows cold to this day, and it's one of Scottys favorites, a dodge.
Listening to Scotty first thing in the morning Wakes me Up! Fast to Start The Day...
For real
I'm glad he finally got to a product that I used, PB Blaster, we used this at the locomotive shop I used to work in-this stuff is amazing on getting rusted parts to break apart-highly recommended....
I just got my first car. Thank heavens i found Scotty's channel! I am learning a lot! 😃👍🏽
I filled my dad’s 1985 maxima up with bad gas in 1990’s. Car ran terrible for a month until I tried seafoam as a last resort. I thought it was a gimmick but my auto tech teacher told me to try it before tearing it apart. It worked
For the Armorall one, diethylene glycol is an interesting chemical. Wine-makers in Austria in the '80s used it as a sweetener for their wine to improve taste and yield (since they could use fewer and crappier grapes) and many people got sick, and it ruined the reputation of Austria's wine industry for 15 years. There's a comprehensive video documentary called "The Austrian Wine Poisoning" on CZcams that talks about it.
I retired from working in a shipyard. We used PB Blaster to free up rust and corrosion. It works.
I use it for rusted sewing machines
Blaster is the best nut buster/ lubricant in a spray can made!
Same here, only I use it to free rusted and stuck tight nuts on big lawn mower blades. Works when impact alone won’t.
I first heard about it when I was doing some repair work in the mines.
They swore by it so I tired it.
Been a happy customer for over 20 years.
Anything that smells that bad must work great...
Scotty is one of the few I actually trust on YT. He is a treasure and lovable character!
That Slime product is working fine on my bicycles for over 15 years. I use it on my MTB(26"). It has an inner tube, and last time I swapped tyres I counted 18 holes, that I didn't know, but this thing fixed it. Didn't patch the inner tube,just put it back with the 18 holes,and it's still good.
It's great for low speed applications yes. Scotty's talking about putting it in a commuter vehicle.
Tyre slime works really well so long as the puncture you're trying to fix isn't huge. It's particularly good for things from pushbikes to dirt bikes to quads. It's also good for a get you home where cars are concerned but just be prepared to get moaned at by your tyre shop though when it comes to fixing or replacing your rubber!
Good for riding lawn mowers tires too
My dad rarely has to use Slime but everytime he has had to use it it has got him buy until he needed to replace the tire. My dad uses PB Blaster all the time and works very well.
Thank you for the warnings, Mr. Kilmer. I appreciate not finding out the hard way.
I’m never left on a down note after a Scotty Kilmer video. Ever.
Amazing profile picture
I'm not surprised that Scotty's wife is allergic to Bullsh!t as well🤣
Nice catch 👌🏻🤣
LOL
@DOhnUtz very good! 👍😎🤣🤣🤣
I keep a can of slime in my trunk only for extreme emergencies. I go hiking and camping in a lot of remote locations and I have it so that I’m not stuck in the middle of nowhere. But, I do know not to use it and leave the tire on the car permanently.
Do you have an air compressor along too? What good is that slime without adding air?
@@brokentombot Usually you buy the slime in a pack with a portable air pump for your car. They sell them in packs. Very helpful in emergency flat tire situations.
Thank you a million! Great to see an American blue collar exposing these crooks!

I used the AC Pro in my 2006 Corolla when I bought it at 135k, ac didnt work. The AC Pro made it blow cold and drove the car for 4 years, never any issues. Sold it to a friend and its still running perfect.
I use it too just not the one with the sealer in it.
Omg i thought I was the only person who thought armour all was crap!. Every time I ever tried it my dash ended up cracking!
I noticed dashes cracked when ArmorAll was used year-round. I only used it one day/year on a hot summer day and my dashes wouldn't crack.
Back in the late 70s, early 80s my dad used Armor All on my mother's vinyl seats. She told him to never do it again because when she had to make an emergency stop she almost slid off the seat while wearing her seatbelt. I miss that VW 412 wagon.
The Tin man picture was funny man, you got me
For what it’s worth, Slime works wonders in bicycle inner tubes. I’ve pulled nails out of my tires, got back on and kept going!
Yep...I use Slime bicycle products all the time and they're very good there. I put a Slime self-sealing inner tube on the rear three years ago and no flats at all.

I use Seafoam in all my small engine power equipment. Haven't had to clean a carb in years.
That's what it was made for. Small motors with drip carbs. Using it on big engines with fuel injectors and fuel mix computers makes no sense, but it does make large white clouds.
I do not use it in my power equipment engines and I have not had to clean a carb ever.
@@dianahardy7916 Good for you! Where to you live? Here in Canada, our summer gear sits in a garage for 6 months in the winter unused, the snow blowers sit in the garage all summer. The stuff works great as a fuel stabilizer.
Scotty. I normally agree with you on most things. But I will have to differ on the seafoam. I've been a mechanic for 30 years and it's an amazing product, if you want an inexpensive tune up on an old, high mileage car. I have had amazing luck with this and so have many that I know, that have used it. It may indeed , not work for brand new cars, but who the heck has money for new cars. Haaaa. I sure don't.
Wife's uncle used to put it in his planes and all of his toys.
A CZcams channel proved that Liquid Wrench beats PB Blaster for loosening rusted parts. Been around as long as I can remember, I am 68 LOVE it. Mechanic for 50 years also.

@@PhillipCornwell1974 Ooooooooh....what's wrong with opening a window?
@@hikaru9624 I grew up in the desert so a lot, actually. Air that hot just feels like a heater.
When the air is over 95 degrees Fahrenheit (37-ish Celsius in your parts ) and humidity also 85-90%+ rolling down window doesn't help. When you have temperatures and the humidity is at and/or over 100 (without rain), rolling down the window is only to make sure your windows do not explode outward from the building of heat and air pressure inside the vehicle.

Gotta love the extras in the corner of these videos. Best one to date was the Tin Man lubing himself in bed in this one LOL
It’s been tough milking enough snakes to refine the oil. PETA wants to shut me down. 🤷♂️😏

I find Armor All to leave a greasy shiney residue on the dash which can cause excessive reflective glare on sunny days.
A friend of mine used Armour all, on his Broncos floor mats...it was like having the floor frozen in ice, couldn't even brace for a stop sign! You just slide to the firewall!!!
It also shortens material life. Drys it out, makes it crumble.
I use the armor all flat finish, hard to find but a nice low Lustre finish.
@@garyjohnson1970 That's true especially if you live in the South. The heat and humidity are brutal. Turtle wax makes a great interior spray that does a much better job. It also doesn't leave that greasy sheen on the interior.
Olive oil works for me . No kidding
The cleaning of his wife's dash and not telling her 😂 cracks me up!!
WD-40 is a water displacer. "that's what the WD stands for" it was made to help protect from rust and corrosion. It is not a lubricant.
Correct!
People use WD40 on chains on their bikes, and sooner than later, they are replacing their chains. PB (butt) Blaster is a fine product, as is Aerocraw (Very Expensive). It is common in the south. I keep several cans of both in my toolbox.
@@wendellwhite5797 I agree with that. Have you ever used Kroil? Heard it was a great lubricant.
@@olliefoxx7165 I forgot how to spell it. I get mine from working on industrial sites around the country. I now have several cans of it.
I was waiting for Scotty to accidentally chuck a product with his hand motions XD
That's funny, I would love to see that...
I've used Slime in bike, wheel barrow and land mower tires and it worked like magic and it has lasted. Interesting to note not a good idea to use in car tires. Scotty keep up the advice!
To me, the best way to protect your car's interior is to get UV protective tinted windows, and use a dash reflector.
Wife's car burned 2 quarts of oil between changes. Added restore to old oil about 1500 miles before oil change.( I figured a fresh oil filter might trap most of the product and the old clogged filter would let it bypass) Her rig now only burns about one quart between oil changes. Her car has 224k.
I've seen Seafoam work magic but not on anything newer than a 90's car, just haven't seen anyone try. Just happened to be an old fuel injected Ford 5.0 OHV every time, a few low output ones and one Mustang. The effect it has on a bad idle is pretty surprising, but no idea how that would effect a modern car.
PB Blast is good stuff! Loosens stuck bolts, let it soak overnight 👍
10 years at a parts store. I've found that cheap carb cleaner can work just as well as Seafoam for intake cleaning. Slime is the best all-around tire sealant I know of. Great to follow up with after plugging a tire. As the directions say, all you have to do to keep it from settling at the bottom, and unbalancing the tire is to drive around (the longer, the better) immediately after you finish putting it into the tire.
PB Blaster is made here in Cleveland Ohio, we use it liberally for everything stuck! Aka weasel piss. Huge fan of it!
Ha ha weasel piss.
I'll store some next to the gorilla snot ( grease)
Love PB Blaster, made in Cleveland Ohio headquarters is in Independence.
Maybe you can use it in your Brown's next year when they get stuck in the bottom of the AFC North! Lol
PB Blaster also kills wasps and yellow jackets, in addition, it's residual and makes the nests uninhabitable to other aggressive stinging bees for YEARS.
Pb Blaster is SOOO underrated.

@@Acaidia Yup. PBBlaster any rusty nut that I find. Usually wait a day if it's really rusted up.

While using PB Blaster to loosen nutz on my engine, I found the over-spray cleaned the engine parts very well.
Retired lawman of 22 years . USED P.B. Blaster to clean and lube my service weapon. Made it a quick way to clean the lead and junk out of my barrel. No issues with jams or sticking. Just my experience
Say what you want about Seafoam, I've used it to clean the crud of neglect out of a lot of engines, both gasser and diesel. It works well when used as directed.
Agreed. It's worked wonders for me in the past.
I do agree with your premise on "engine rebuilder", its bogus.
However, being BBB accredited is also bogus. If you pay them enough, theyll list you as A+ bbb accredited.
Very true..own a business...bbb the worst telemarketer s
Yelp does this scam as well by intimidating businesses into paying to participate. They will move negative reviews further down the list, or make them disappear entirely.
"My wife is allergic to the stuff"..... Perfect, start using it everywhere 😂😂😂
Like Scotty, I don't use Armor All. I discovered a silicone based vinyl treatment called SC-1 by Maxim. It is used on dirt bikes and the tag line they use is "New Bike In A Can" and it does make the bike look new!
Years ago a trim shop guy told me to never use Armoral on vinyl. He said the shine is because it actually socks the oils out of your vinyl to the surface. Said it dries it out in short order with regular use.
I use Sea Foam on all my small motors. Works great.
Same here. Chainsaw, weed eater etc. works great. In the vehicles, no.
Cleared up a rough idle in my riding mower
i use it on anything that has a carb.
Is it useful for old lawnmowers?
I'm 17 and my highschool auto tech teacher swears by pb blaster. There's always a can in the shop. Every time we have a stuck bolt it takes it right off. Can't beat it in my opinion it's saved so much time and money for us at the shop.
Hey Scotty, just wanted to let you know that every HomeDepot I have gone to, in every state visited, has had PB Blaster on the shelf.
Really enjoy your videos.
Anytime I see someone in the auto parts store, usually a lady or young person trying to decide on something like Seafoam, I share the story of my dad's '87 Silverado. I inherited it after he passed. It basically sat for about 3 years. Mom drove it occasionally but she didn't realize it had fuel filler doors on both sides. One of the tanks was full of 3 year old gas. I flew to Oklahoma from New Orleans to drive it back. While driving around town for a couple of days before heading south I switched tanks and the engine sputtered and died. The inside of the gas cap smelled like paint thinner. I put 6-8 cans of Berryman B-12 Chemtool in there and it cleaned it up enough for me to drive the tank dry. I had the throttle body injectors cleaned when I got back to New Orleans. I swear by Berryman.
in my test it does way better job for gas but sea foam is great to use in oil it removes alot of sludge in neglected engines tested buy me on every old car 90 or older iv restored
If you start using Armorall on your tires, they will turn brown, and then you have to keep putting it on.
So true... Been there... Done that... The foaming shine always works better. I spray it on a rag so it doesn't get on the rims cause it can run.
Many car people prefer 303 Protectant.
@@azmike3572 I use the meguiars hot shine
Armorall works nicely to lubricate the bead of a tire when mounting by hand. It's about all it's really any good for.
I think so much like Scotty I'm changing my name to Johnny Kilmer 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Tire slime does work, for leaky valves and small punctures. Not for huge nail holes. I keep a can in the car for emergencies, and a can in the garage for the bikes.
Poured Sea Foam inside the head of a commercial mower engine. Reason being my brother-in law was too cheap to change a spark plug until it wouldn't run at all. So by the time he bought a plug their was so much carbon build up it just fouled the plug. He called the deal and they wanted over 300 bucks to take off the head and clean it out. So I let the seafoam foam over night, put an old plug in it. Started it up and it smoked like hell for over 10 minutes. Then I put a new plug in it. As far as I know it's still running to this day.
The only honest gifted master mechanic in the world.
PB Blaster has many uses, my favorite use is as a pepper spray!
😆
Its also go for joint pain.
that crap burns too.
It kills spiders, too.
The slime works great when your in canada on a mud road with no place for a jack to change tire.
Yep same here
Tire-ject well recommended by Wes from onelonelyfarmer@ none of them any good for road use.

Hey Scotty, I used the PB Blaster when I had to replace the drains in my kitchen sink. The lock nut on the bottom of the drain was so stuck it wouldn't come loose. I sprayed the PB Blaster on, let it sit for an hour and Voila! loose lock nut. Great stuff. Another item I have used for 50 years is Marvel Mystery Oil. What is your take on Marvel Mystery Oil?
I ran that engine "RESTORE" crap in an old '01 Honda Prelude once. Shortly after putting it in, my oil light started flickering on. I quickly parked it for the evening, and the next morning I changed the oil. I've never done an oil change so quickly in my life. That H series really just needed a rebuild. Fortunately I sold it to someone who wanted to rebuild it, and walked away from it.
We use slime in our dirt bike tires, works good.
It’s ok for lawn mower, wheelbarrow tires... but better to put a tube in.
He said don't leave it in you car tires for extended periods.
It works Awesome for me i buy used tires for 20 bucks throw some slime in em if they leak and let em ride but they will corrode your rims
@@jacobwilliams5868 corrode your wheels? Damn. Ok good to know. Good thing we only use it when needed in a pinch.
@@jacobwilliams5868 Slime is honest about it...kudos to them:
"Can I use Slime Tube Sealant in a tubeless tire?
No. This red label Tube sealant formula does not contain the rust and corrosion inhibitors necessary to protect a tubeless wheel. We do not recommend or guarantee performance of the product in this application. But Slime does offer a NEW 2-in-1 Tire & Tube sealant (black label) that will work in a tubeless tire, or a tire with a tube. Same great Slime two year protection, with more flexibility!"
I can only hope to have this much energy when I'm his age 🤣🤣. I'm loving these videos, always nice to learn some inside honesty from the pros.
I'm 8 years younger than Scotty with 1/10th of his energy. I need to try a caffeine food additive to rev up my engine!
,no good
Stinks
Junk
That seafoam sure did quiet my lifters on a Jeep 4.0 in line 6
I don’t know why Scotty is so hard on SeaFoam. It does actually do some good.
@@deadairconversion Gumout paid him to do a video of their competing product. Maybe that's why?
@@johnbrady1288 I don't know man. I love Scotty but sometimes I think he's a little off base on some things
PB Blaster saved my butt when I was doing my brakes a few months ago. Love it!
PB Blaster is made in the Cleveland, Ohio area. I worked at the plant, for a very short time, that filled the cans of all their products. The place wasn't very big, so they probably aren't nation wide it all of the smaller retailers.
PB Blaster does work well. I use it to free rusted/seized nuts and bolts. The only down side is it really stinks! Use with good ventilation.
I found some at the Dollar Store. Best dollar I ever spent. Breaks that rusty stuff fast.
If you gotta fill it up once a year
“Heck just fill it once a year “ love this guy
Deep Creep by Sea Foam is the best penetrating oil I use. It hasn't let me down so far.
I know it's one of the best that penetrates bolt treads the best to ease loosening. Also seafoam treatments do remove carbon and leave your engine running and idling smoother after. For the fuel it also cleans and lubricates etc.
Agreed, PB blaster is really good!
The tyre sealant stuff works great - you just need to read the instructions.
If you dump it in and don't rotate the tyre for a day, then sure you might possibly get a balance issue, but the ones I have seen tell you to drive the car for a certain distance/time after using it, so it spreads evenly around the interior of the tyre, hence no out of balance.
Spelled tire
TYRE JECT seems to work well, apparently it does not rot your rims. unlike the stuff you have.
I've used Slime one time. Pulled out the roofing tack and removed the Schrader valve and put in roughly a teaspoon of the slime rotated tire to where the function with points right down and put air in the tire it sealed and was still balanced. I use seafoam in my 2000 Dodge Dakota 3.9 sucking it through the vacuum system and surprisingly I did get a improvement running and response after 290,000 Miles
Scotty recommends PB blaster, I'm BUYING STOCK!
It's the greatest stuff if you have an old toyota in the north east. Couldn't get nuts and bolts off without it
I never had luck with that stuff
Wax oil does a better job.
PB Blaster is a must! It's the only reason I ever go into our local Advance Auto.
Seafoam was able to bring back the fuel trims on my 188k mile IS300 from +13% to +1%-2%
Seafoam is a miracle. Projectfarm used it to restore a truck engine
How old was it? I think Scotty is saying "new cars", so I assume that older cars without electronic crap, it will be ok?
@@birdlady2725 2004, seafoam works perfectly fine in the gas tank and in the intake every now and then. If you have a GDI car that has problems with carbon buildup, then use seafoam before going to a mechanic.
I like how he does give certain products some leeway for the certain times it can be used. Tire leak- great ONLY for emergencies, SeaFoam only for 2 strokes, etc. Actual information, not just, "I hate this crappy product, don't ever buy it."
Does it help seldom-used chainsaws to start easier?
Calk up another one for Scotty. I used Slime to repair tire leaks caused by construction nails. Each tire treated with Slime was unusable over 50 mph because the imbalance was so bad, and the tires could not be rebalanced. Lesson learned. If you have to repair nail leaks, don't use Slime. AND I really don't like the way Slime hides this defect from their customers. They know all about the imbalance issue and never put any warning on their product and refuse to acknowledge that Slime has a serious product defect causing a dangerous driving condition and ruining your tires.
That PB blaster helped loosen bolts that had been on my car for the last 22 years. Lol.
He's really full of it today! Notice that he does plug his preference of products while trying to act impartial.
@@billgateskilledmyuncle23 I’ve been using PB blaster for years. He wouldn’t have changed my mind either way.
Oh man, I've been using PB blaster for years, great stuff.
I ABSOLUTELY LOVE PB BLASTER! Used it all the time in my bicycle shop. Got it at dollar general.
Scotty. You are awesome / your experience of over 50 years it’s like having a friendly neighbor as a trusted. mechanic 💪🏽 🛠🛠⚙️
