  • So in this video I’m going to talk about where you can search for oil leaks coming out underneath your car. I thought the information was actually pretty good. But ultimately I’m just trying to get people to know that they can take a look at their cars . And they don’t have to know everything about a car to use commonsense. Hopefully the video is enjoyable and you find my useless facts interesting. God bless have a great day.

    What about the oil filler cap!? My Mercedes c class had it I replaced the cap..... and not leaking anymore.... oil was coming out and leaking down from the cap to the camshaft cover off that onto the head and then on to the exhaust manifold so I got a smell of burnet oil coming into the cabin....

      There was somebody in the comments that was telling me that I was missing the actual leak. Even though when I was done working on it, it didn’t leak anymore….

    Bro, real question, i changed my oil for the first time in my life. And after tightened everything and completed everything turned on car and let it run for like 5 minutes while it was on ramps and just looked to see if any leaks. But did not see anything dripping at all. So that being said, is that mean its good? Or can it look good in first 5 minutes running and then on the 6 minute start leaking? Or is that crazy paranoid of me to think like that? Then at end of the day just looked under car for like 2 minutes and still seen nothing dripping. Would you say checking like i did and seeing nothing at all dripping, would u say in general im good? I think im totally good to go. But this is my first oil change so i dont know if theres such a thing as a leak that you cant see drip at all, but maybe will drip one drip every 6 minutes and since i didnt spend a full 6 minutes watching then i missed it.

      Yeah, I’m sure you’re good you’re overthinking it a bit. Nothing wrong with that their security and overthinking.
      But as someone who constantly overthink themselves, try to make it a habit. It will slow down throughout life and it will take a very long time to accomplish the things you want to accomplish.

      That’s the craziest thing I ever heard I have never heard of oil leaking inside a car before….
      It might be another type of liquid could it possibly be coolant?
      Heater cores will leak on the inside of automobiles but no oil runs through anything inside the automobile that I’m aware of and I’ve been doing this for three decades I can’t think of any situation where oil runs into the vehicle it is also possible that if you have a manual transmission that you could have brake fluid or clutch fluid running into the vehicle I suppose

    -My car leaks oil when the engine is on, but it doesn't leak when I'm driving at all.
    -The oil pressure light comes on sometimes when I am coming to a stop.
    - I ran the engine in park and looked under the hood. Oil was gushing off of my starter, which was getting leaked on from above it.
    I'm dealing with a rear main seal leak, right?

    my 86 f150 needs a oil pan gasket but I've got a huge leak thays spraying oil from the right side. its on my steering wheel, headers, fuel filter, and runs back to the drive shaft behind transmission.. I was going to do an oil change but I seen i had low oil so I put 6 quarts in and they ran out in a secounds. can't really tell where it's coming from but it started out spraying onto fuel line by the steering colom an onto the headers. any ideas?

    • @sharpcarco
      @sharpcarco  Před 4 lety +1

      Well I respect your criticism as I respect everyone’s criticism but I would disagree with you I probably have more people tell me that they like it then don’t.
      But to be perfectly honest with you the real reason I do it. Is because repair videos get played one time. And when you add that information at the bottom of the video it becomes distracting which then in turn makes the video have a better retention rate. Contrary to popular belief’s subscribers have absolutely nothing to do with how much money you make on a CZcams video. I make about 2/10 of a cent per video view and with that distraction down at the bottom I make about 4/10 of a cent. Every little bit adds up. regretfully I’m not a Baller like most CZcams channels that are about absolutely nothing and do not help you get through life like repair videos. so show a little bit of respect for me and just watch the video or move on. Pay attention to the good stuff and leave the stuff you don’t like behind
