You are right Lori, on both of trust and live closer.
He use to live in Houston, where I live.
Have a 2012 ford escape 4cly, evap purge valve went bad, replaced and after a few weeks the car is still having issues cranking up but check engine light not on at this point. Any Thoughts?
Hi Scotty,
On my son’s 2015 Civic LX (manual transmission), the TPMS light came on and shortly after the engine light came on. He went to AutoZone to use the code reader and it showed no codes. He was told a battery issue may cause the problem but his battery tested strong. The voltage when the car was running was lower than normal so the AutoZone employee suggested the voltage regulator or alternator may be bad.
What do you think?
Do give away?
Trump 2020 wins. Also fooled
🤣🤣🤣 he always gets me when he says junkyard and then a chevy dealership pops up. Funny as...😂😂😂😂
🤣
*ford
I have had 3 Chevys, laughed so hard!!!! Bought a 2015 Cruze, in 6 yrs it was a lemon
He's known for presenting facts and when people say Chevy the first thing most intelligent people think of is junkyards
@@ethimself5064 some Chevy's are nice
Scotty: don’t rely on anyone exclusively
Me: relies on Scotty exclusively
Well you heard the man.
Scotty's humble, he meant to say, 'except for me!'
You're the only person I would trust with my car I just wish you were closer so I could have you as my mechanic
and I wish I lived in Novosibirsk so I could take my car to Garage 54.
Check Yelp and Angie's list, also word of mouth. There are trustworthy mechanics out there.
But i totally understand, wish Scotty was my mechanic too.👍😎
@@the_mowron 🤣🤣
Well he's somewhere in Texas but I don't know where in Texas
5 million subscribers think the same
I'm going to see that steering wheel again in my nightmares
Apparently, Scotty got hungry during the test drive.
Yeah lol
I had to change the wheel on my '96' Miata, it was starting to do the same thing.
Saw this pop up right now during my lunch break. I had to give it a watch and watch Scotty teach me about things I have no idea about 🙏🏼👍🏻
Honesty, decency, integrity, principles all seem to be in short supply nowadays. Treat those who still have all those qualities well, they deserve it.
Agree
Cringe
Very true..only way to truly find out is to check for yourself!!!
@@aarongrisham5555 you are exactly what is wrong with the world.
They always were. Where have u been?
The moral of the story is to replace one sparkplug wire at a time!
or number them with tape
You always do it that way even if you have a new ignition coil or dizzy. Take one wire off and connect to the new part one at a time!
In 1980 my college dorm roommate had a Chev. 305 V8 Nova he drove all the way from Florida to Tennessee. It was running rough & I took out the spark plugs one at a time noticed 2 were wet. We went to the local JUNKYARD (Chevrolet Dealer) and bought two wires, $7.00 for both. High energy ignitions hadn't been out long, replaced the two wires where the wet plugs were. Run perfect, remember he drove it all the way from FLA to TN Like that.

Shows chevy dealership. NEVER CHANGE SCOTTY
Yes, his pop up pictures are the best!
Ford sucks!
I’ve been watching him for almost 7years
"32 years old"
Ooof! I remember when these were new.
Ha ha. You're old
@@sandybarnes887 Ha Ha---I remember the new '57 Chevy, when I was 7. I'll bet I'm older---and it sucks!!!!!
@@elultimo102 Hey. Get off my lawn. The newest car I remember is an orange 1970 Dodge Charger Dayton with a 426 hemi and a huge black rear wing. I was 11. 🙂
I daily drive a 35 year old cavalier. It just reached the age in North Carolina when you don't have to have inspections any longer.
Big Oooooooffffff hahaha
I’m hooked watching Scotty’s videos.
That was one of the first things I learned when I first moved to the city, you can't trust ANYONE to give you an honest days work, so you better make sure you have a signed contract...
The one giving you contracts will top it up with their liability insurance premium
Care to give examples? I love a good story
yup. Make sure the contract screws em good on their failure.
Incorrect. Your first diagram said it was for a 1.8L engine. That’s a 1.6L and the plug order is different.
Correct. Wrong generation of Miata/MX5 as is obvious from the bumper lights.
Also the 1.8 has letters that pop out on the valve cover where the 1.6 has recessed lettering. Shame Kilmer, shame….
Good observation. You’re a genius.
@@bijnor67 no he’s observant
What's funny is he said to "trust only me". Every once in a while he says something that makes no damn sense. He's probably 90+% accurate though but always double check these know-it-all types.
I like the picture of the Pope when you said don’t trust anyone 😎
Haha
Nothing says "Have Faith", quite like having bullet-proof windows on the Pope-Mobile. 🤣
In God We Trust.
“Don’t trust anybody except ol Scotty here” not even the Pope 😅
Which one, the retired ? One..
scooty is wiser than the pope
That's just unbelievable that the information service you pay a subscription for couldn't even get the order for the plug wires correct!!
Does everyone do things half-assed these days with no quality checks?
Especially not the Pope
😆😆😆
0:59 You've picked the wrong model year. That's a first generation pre-'97 MX-5/Miata (NA) which you can tell from the lights in the bumper, not a '99 which is second generation (NB). It's the 1.6L B6ZE engine.
I love my 93 miata. Bringing it back to a really nice example over time
I don't recommend Bosch spark plug leads. I had a set on my first car, and you could see them arcing through the insulation in the dark. I do recommend NGK leads. Super high quality, and they're blue which looks cool.
I can't stand blue. I'll stick with the gray Chinesium plug leads.
Somebody literally got their wires crossed 🤪
"Looks like uve got ur wires crossed sonny" 😄💕👍
Hahahaha good one!!!!
When you got the miata sounding right I really thought you were gonna say "rev up your engine".
The only thing you can trust these days is a 94 Celica not leaving you stranded on the side of the road.
Or my 2003 and 2005 Prius cars.
@@constancecondit4349 Or when your batteries die.
Because the miata 1.6 and 1.8 have a different firing order Scotty…
Ok Miata expert
@@whoiswho5387 yeah and?
I love it Scotty, "convertible top, that is the air conditioning" LOL
Honestly Scotty I had the same issue with my Miata. When changing my plug wires i couldn’t find anywhere with the correct firing order online but I eventually figured it out.
Coil pack is plugged in backwards...
@@craigunderwood8955 Nope. He typed in wrong engine. That’s a 1.6.
I thought she was dead!?! I see Scotty has gotten ahold of my old 93 miata which I drove into the ground back in 2007.
Why can't people put things back the way it was taken off? You can hear the rice burning when he drives it.
Hi Scotty, I always enjoy your videos, keep on making them. What I see in this video is that you change the ignition sequence on second time back to where it was. Look it back on your video. So probably it was not the ignition sequence but maybe a contact problem of the connections.
"You can get these for dirt cheap"
Ha! Scotty have you seen the prices on these lately? 🙄😂
Yeah the old ones are coming up in price.
I had a 1990 for many years .
It was the go-cart I never had .
1st thing I did was replace the timing belt . Its easy to get at .
Yep. That’s a $6000 car in Canada any day...as is.
when u said HA! I thought of the horse laughing
Dirt is no longer cheap! At least where I live.
What do you mean you can find em for like 2000- 6000 all day on Facebook.
That door knob had me laughing so hard lol
Those old Miatas are like GOLD here in Southern Ontario, Canada. Even old 1995 models with no engine or transmission in them, are selling for $15,000 used.
How much for a running 02 NB with new leather seats? I'll drive it up!
When you restarted & gave a wee rev it at 1.50 Scotty it sounded like a 35 year old Leyland National bus!🤣🤣
Never change.
You don't have to even care about the timing belt, until the NC/ND miata engines, all the other are non interference engines...when your timing belt breaks no bent valves and pistons...you just get stranded then put a new timing belt and off you go again.
nice!!!
I learned so much from you 💯🗣
These little early 90’s imports are red hot right now
Sounds like a diesel Miata 😂😭😭
It's that new Mazda skyactiv diesel
This is why I just spend the money on the manufacturer repair manual.
Good idea. I should order one. I hate having to sort through crap on the internet.
Man... how easy to work on 90's cars
Mx5 was one of the easiest to DIY.
I just bought a 92 k1500 4x4 with 165k. Runs like a top
@@shannonlawsonnashville imagine how great it would be if it had a bottom.
Scotty your channel is one of the few that causes me to literally laugh out loud. My wife always asks me what’s so funny. Love your channel. “Unless you want a dead turd in the road” 😂🤣😅
Hi Scotty! So happy to view a vid within minutes of you posting! Q-- could you do a vid on front and rear dash cams and if it is really worth getting one? I know dash cams are not a car issue per say but cars are so expensive to buy, maintain, and insure for the average person so any help protecting them would be so appreciated. Especially with all the crazy and aggressive drivers out there. After all "You can't trust anyone anymore". Pretty Please? Have a great day!
Miata prices have been skyrocketing! that NA6 is probably worth at least $3k or more now! That is NOT a roll bar, it is a STYLE BAR, or as Miata guys know them MOUSE TRAPS! Get rid of them!!!
Entire video was bad. He looked up 1999 and then claimed they had the wrong data.
"..unless you want a dead turd for a car..." hilarious!
Good evening Scotty, thank you for your daily upload.
Could you do a video on what old brakes actually look like next to new ones, worn tires next to new ones, a dirty filter next o a clean on … or what it looks like when it should be changed? That would be so incredibly helpful. I love your channel!
6:40 my local 'junk yard' said they don't carry Miata parts. 😄
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Never rely on one source, got it.
My dad used to watch your videos when he tried to fix the cars at home. You saved him a lot of money. Now that your gone I feel like I need to watch your stuff as a way to make sure my car still runs
Thank you Scotty. This info was very useful. I have gotten wrong info on my '88 Jeep, as well. Thankfully, I had a mechanically inclined neighbor to help me figure it out. Don't know where you're living these days, but you're welcome to come to Montana or Idaho. We need a good mechanic out this way. Be well, fellow patriot.
I've always found the Haynes car manuals quiet good and always accurate ....that's old school now these days but haha
Could only find Chiltons. Are they any good?
@@elultimo102 not sure....I'm Australian but I think Haynes is American. Depends on your country I guess. I know Gregorys make them too.
Haynes and Chilton tell you to do a thousand things to replace one part. Ive found simpler ways
@@justina249 yes but u can make that choice yourself. It's nice to have exploded views of something before u pull it apart to know how to pull it apart and what to expect
@@mishham6388 i have better luck watching CZcams videos. Because I have to be shown hands on how to do something. I've just always been that way. I can read and look at pictures all day and never understand it
LMAO 🤣, you showed Killary winning, as wrong information 🤣 great
Hey Scotty, you are the perfect mechanic. Thank you. I have learned so much from every single one of your videos.
Hello Scotty! Love your videos! Congrats on 4.39 subscribers, have been subscribed for many years!!!
NGK or denso for Japanese cars, imo
Gotta feed them hamsters in the correct order
ahem, theyre gerbills
I trusted Scotty and bought a 2009 Toyota Camry with a 4 cylinder engine .... BIG MISTAKE ... never again. Now I watch his videos for the comedy !! :)
Why's it a mistake? Cause it never breaks down?
Soo true Scotty some data is always wrong and double check always, great video
3:15 had me dying😂
My old friend Tom Matano from Mazda R&D designed that car in Irvine, CA.
...man is a genius👍🏼🙌🏼
Seriously, the best-selling roadster of all time, much much much much respect✌🏼
Got it in one Scotty ... when fault finding the only thing worse than no information is wrong information, over 30 years working on photocopiers - printers I learnt that early on.
The Florida pool pump motor bearing repair guy approved ! that was good info Scotty
Can switching to Geico really save you 15% or more on car insurance?
Can Scotty talk without his hands?
"Never trust anything that you have seen on the internet" - Abraham Lincoln.
Never trust a Miata -Jesus 00034
Scotty can you make a video about the safest cars out there today. Thank you for your videos they're awesome
Get rid of that style bar it will kill you. put a proper roll bar in. Also NA Miatas are not cheap anymore, although one that looks like that might be.
It looks like someone has been chewing the steering wheel
Damn I wish I had half of this guy's smarts
Another possibility is like when I go to different junkyards and sometimes find a body panel in the same color as the car I’m putting it on. That hood night be a different year. I’m sure Scotty checked the door jamb area too, though.
You rock Scotty!!! Keep up the great work!
Scotty wins when he plays whack-a-mole.
He goes on the internet and finds the cheat diagram.
That Miata is what you call a junkyard dog😂🤣😂
Great tip! Any printed or internet source could have a mistake. Check several sources.
Always a pleasure to see your magnificent appearance on youtube. Supergenius.

You can't trust anyone. Scotty is anyone, so you can't trust Scotty.
It sounded like a rotary first but Ol Scotty put it on the rail 😂👍🏼
You can't always trust the decal on the hood either. Years back I hit a deer with my 2007 4.6 F150. The body shop sourced a hood from the wreckers and painted the outer surface to blend with the fenders, but left the underside. If you check the decal on my hood you'd think the truck was an '08 with a 5.4.
The miata's are notorious rustbuckets. Especially the older ones.
Almost Any car from the 90's and older is. That was before the advent of modern chassis rust coatings. I had the same generation 1993 Miata and there wasn't a square inch of rust on the entire car. All depends on where you're from and how you take care of your car.
I know your frustration Scotty! I never trust the first wiring diagram, first vacuum system diagram or torque setting if I dont have the book for it!
I always laugh when i watch Scotty flashing pictures.
You can always rely on Scotty’s info
Nice classic NA as a project car. I love my ND2. Such a fun car.
That “roll bar” can do more damage than good. In rollover accidents, they have been known to fold forward, pinning the driver. They are known as “mousetraps” in the Miata community, and they can be dangerous.
Either I work on my own cars or only my close friends will work on them. No on else.
"There's nothing worse than being fooled by a data system.". With a picture of truth!
I know I nearly died from laughter laughing at that.
The Haynes manual listed the wrong firing order for my 1993 Mazda 323. It had me stumped for days lol.
I believe the Chilton brand books are better those Haynes books are missing alot
Hey Scotty i just seen your video just now and i love Miata's and i love Miata's with pop up headlights and i like the Miata that you did a video on in texas
All data is correct. Scotty was the problem. He out in 1999 model look at :57
How can u tell?
I heard they not cheap anymore
Great pop-Ups 👍
Great info n character
Thx
It’s a Miata. That’s as probably as good as the engine’s ever going to sound.
Ha Ha...........envy.
It sounds like a busted sewing machine even after the plug wires were hooked up correctly
Great video
When all else fails, rely on the manual
Do your due diligence!
“Not really racecars” fun fact: more miatas are raced in America than any other car
I know a guy that races them. His isn't exactly stock anymore though either, but it is road driveable. He drives it to the race track with a little trailer hauling his track tires.
Great video.
Great advice
The first plug wire order you pulled up was for a 1.8 liter engine ('94-97 NA Miatas), but your care is a 1.6L, which has the coil on the other side and the reverse plug wire order. The first diagram was right, but for the wrong engine.
I used to diagram the plug wires before doing any work. My current car doesn't have any. Each plug has a separate coil with dedicated wiring harness.
