The fact that it doesn't throw a check engine light is actually pretty funny in a subtle way. The engine making all these scary noises and the ECU is like, "Nah. We're good."
I think this van is before all that. Barely, but before all that.
I had a 90s car that would not throw any errors until it was fully cooked
@@miaugato93 yup, so just in case the noises and lack of working didn't tip you off, we are broken
"Fuck it we ball"
The computer can't tell if the car is on fire upside down with four flats. It only checks the output of a few sensors.
@@miaugato93 My '98 Civic doesn't show a CEL or any codes despite running on 2 cylinders
Rest in piece Donkey Van. you were immune to everything your entire life but you couldn't handle the power of the Dank!
He was immune to everything. Only thing he couldn't survive was himself!
The Donkey van will live again, I can feel it in my bones
It's puffing blue rings of smoke in donkey van heaven.
@@Troggie42 oh they're not letting their most reliable vehicle (aside the shepherd) die 😂 they need his services to haul parts for their dying cars!
Fully agree. May the Donkey van rest in both pieces and peace.
Immune to shoe. Immune to broom. Immune to step. Immune to chair. Yet in the end, Donkey Van was not immune to death. But do not weep, nuggeteers. For in its dying moments, it gave us back the greatest treasure of all: Jamiroquai.
For now, rest in peace, Donkey Van. May your resurrection make you even stronger than before
D O N K E Y
may the jamiroquai live forever
REARRANGING FURNITURE
I don't know why, but I want to cry.
Van is now immune to death itself. yay.
It either gave you back Jamiroquai as a touching parting gift, or the Jamiroquai CD was the only thing allowing it to cling to life. RIP Donkey Van. 🙏
I relate to that honestly
The load-bearing Jamiroquai CD.
It's final gift to you was returning the CD it ate day one before it died.
May you rest in peace Donkey Van. We salute this machine that somehow managed to survive 9 months longer than expected.
"Take this one last gift, Wade, for I have failed you"
*Wade, clutching Jamaroqui CD* "You could never fail me, Donkey Van"
Kind of heart warming. ngl the machine spirit is strong with this one.
Walking Without Moving, good taste
@@_John_Johnson were never gonna see donkey again are we?
this is it, isn't it?
Take my last cd dank - Donkey zepelli before dying
The fact it gave you back your cd before fully dying felt like it's last wish. RIP Donkey van you will be missed
I know right it was like "here I want you to have this"
"Don't cry, we're gonna fix it"
@@adambester3673 take this jamiroquai you will need it on you nugget journey
It held on to Jamiroquai until the very end
Never losing any HP, immune to shoe, step, chair, and broom, and with it's dying breath, it relinquishes Jamiroquai. Rest easy, Donkey Van. (2022-2023)
"We'll just fix it"
Van: "Please. Let me rest."
I didn't expect to be sitting here at 4 AM my time feeling emotional for a van I've never driven owned by a CZcamsr from a country I've never been to, but here we are. Bravo, Dank. I'm sure we'll see the donkey van rise again.
same
The Donkey Van Rises by Christopher Nolan. Summer 2024 only in theaters.
@@CrazyChemistPL The donkey van is played by Chris Pratt
@@ozzie_goat Cillian Murphy. It's Nolan we are talking about.
Same
the returning of the CD right after its death is poetical.
it was literally the same scene from HIMYM with the pontiac fiero and the ''500 miles'' cassette tape, beautiful
@@Kio_186 I WAS JUST GOING TO MENTION THAT
Bookends.
As a Subaru mechanic who uses this on every car: Youve probably dislodged some carbon from the intake and its sticking a valve open. Spray a bit in each port of the intake and leave it overnight.
Either that or you had carbon for compression rings lmao
Newer vid showed that it caused a head gasket to blow.
Best guess is that it was already on its way out and the higher exhaust temps the can of fun caused was the finishing blow.
@@TheRedCapperhaps it had carbon for a head gasket
Plot twist: the head gasket blew tf up
James: Can say’s to spray only 15 seconds
Also James: dumps entire can into engine
that invincible outer shell was housing the most fragile of souls... Rest easy Donkey Van
At 12:20 the subtitles read the van’s last words as “thank you”. It truly appreciated the care you gave it
He shoved bananas in the rear diff.
Omg it does! The google can figure out what the van was trying to say to us even though our human ears could not!
Thank you for putting me out of my misery.
ENGINE SWAP TIME
Never would have noticed it 😅
I think It's sarcasm
My favorite part in the montage is when it goes from James lovingly restoring the interior to Wade smashing the radio like a caveman 🤣
I’ve learned more about cars from Wade and James than my own non-existent father!! The comedy keeps me coming, and the knowledge keeps me learning 🔥🔥🔥🤙🏼🤙🏼🤙🏼
You don’t have a father? Are you the first case of parthenogenesis?
The donkey was immune to chairs. But it wasn’t immune to time. RIP
This sounds like a Philomena Cunk line
That's deep. 😔
Immune to chairs but not immune to the community’s love. RIP
it wasn't immune to those day 1 reverse burnouts either lmao
Immune to chairs but not immune to it’s ailing heart
At it’s last moments, the Donkey Van gave the disc back. It’s like a movie scene where the side character gives the hero a piece of clothing right before dying.
THIS IS THE LAST OF ME CHOONS, WADE! -donkey zeppeli
"Maybe we need to gather all the smoke and put it back in."
I long for an opportunity to quote this in the future
Pinging sounds like when you drive over little particles and they kick up into your wheel arches, thx for the anxiety
Why did it feel like James was giving the Donkey Van a lethal injection when he sprayed that engine conditioner in the montage. Almost like a sick pet. RIP Donkey Van.
Nug euthanasia
Dank slow-mo laughing at the smoke from the exhaust which was actually the Donkey choking, just barely clinging on to life... RIP poor van. Surely you can be fixed.
Yeah, that plastic bottle of gunk you put in to "clean" the engine, actually exposed that the Donkey Van's rings are like 80 percent gunk.
90% of never maintained cars are like that
@@vipvip-tf9rw the moment you shift the gunk it falls to pieces 🤣
The gunk was sealing the cylinders!
Kinda reminds me about how your not supposed to change automatic transmission fluid after 100,000 miles if you’ve not maintained it. Because the fluid gets filled with all the friction materials from the clutch packs. And if you do the transmission starts slipping.
Load bearing gunk
It's always funny when Dank abuses something, sometimes deservedly... whether it's kicking the Donkey Van, TONKing one of his cymbals, or One-Gritting a nugget 🤣
The can of fun should add another bullet point to its list of features.
• Reduces Pinging
• Improves Environmental
• Gets your Jamiroquai back
Sold
Jamiroquai cd was the vans most valuable possession so with its dying breath it gave it to you
This is now a historic garage time episode and we will look back on it 10 years from now in intense nostalgia
The donkey van wrote the Jamiroquai CD it treasured so much in its will to give to you when it died.
Rip Donkey Van, you really were the best wheelbarrow a man could ask for
"We looked for a problem... and killed it with the solution " -- quote of the year!
Slowed down attempts at burnouts is probably the saddest thing I've ever seen.
I would love to see it rebuilt.
And you will
You should've listened to the last second 12:40
My guess is that the pinging was due to carbon deposits, and the dead cylinder after the treatments is cause there are now carbon flakes stuck under a valve.
A fix could be as easy as using some seafoam, or if youre cheapo just spray some water mist to the intake at high idle.
It probably cleaned up the gunk that was holding the whole thing together.
Probably hydrolocked it and slightly bent a rod, the squealing you can hear at idle and it struggling to idle is because one of the rod bearing is now in constant contact with the crank. What he was using was essentially the same thing as seafoam. Sprayed too much at low rpm.
@@acidsilencev2 Very unlikely. Hydrolocking an engine takes quite a bit more liquid than you would expect. Even at low RPM your not going to be able to do that without being extremely careless.
@@skurblord3401 You'd be surprised, the volume of an average combustion chamber isn't that large. That initial 15 second spray with the engine off could have done it.
I love idea of clearing out the seafoam with more seafoam
That can 'conditioned' the engine the same way a funeral director cleans up a body for a wake.
did not expect dank to be a socks and flip flops kind of guy but ya know it all kinda makes sense now lmao
James and Nameless camera man adventures continue. (😆)
I love garbage time, one of the few channels that I actually rang the bell for, and always watch when something comes out.
Thats dankpos
Nameless camera man is Wade
@Alyssa Smith I know, but you barely hear his name, I always think of James.
But yeah I found out his name when I used google.
@@alydev23 he also runs dankpods and dankmus
@@mitchellmorrison4233 and drum thing
"We looked for a problem, and killed it with a solution."
This seems to be the official motto of the Dank/Wade Universe.
Just poking a bit of fun mate! 🤣 Cheers! 👍
3:30 POV: The Joker releasing joker gas on innocent civilians
This reminded me how a friend of mine would find a hole in the vacuum intake of a diesel engine. He would find the suspect hose and spray a little bit of propane at it from a canister. If there was a hole it would suck in the propane and make the engine rev up like crazy
I usually don't care at all about car stuff, but my dad does.
We watch these videos together and he explains in more detail what you guys are talking about, even though you explain it a bit in the video, and we laugh together a your jokes and bits.
You and James absolutely kill it, thank you for the videos!
"Absolutely kill it" might be the wrong choice of words here bud. 🤔
@@KiraSlith nah it's spot on
Rest in pieces donkey. You will always be the donkey who was immune to everything except the duo who cared for you to the end
She was designed for abuse, and was killed with kindness. RIP Donkey.
You are way more knowledgeable than most of your viewers are aware of. I knew after you said “there’s a dead hole”. My hats off to you
The slowed down laughing just makes the montage so much better, never stop dank, we need more garbage and definitely more donkey van shenanigans
for something that lasted nearly 4 times longer than expected, it was probably inevitable.
RIP Donkey Van, your Wonder Guard did not stop you from the Dankman himself.
Half expected a "-9999 HP" when they started using the can
Donkey Van is NOT immune to engine conditioner spray
“I forgot to give this back”
- donkey van
I would watch a real time livestream of Wade and James going on a roadtrip to Darwin and back in a nugget car.
I think you’ve witnessed the phenomenon old guys like talking about where the engine cleaner removes the carbon buildup that’s been keeping the engine running.
Either way, RIP the donkey van
"I am not dressed for combat" *points at socks and sandals* fuck that was hilarious
"this is like the movie speed, vut with a van"
"smell"
I can't believe this video is just over a year old. Feels like this was uploaded only a few months ago.
Rest In Piece, The Best Van In The World.
You gotta put the Jamiroquai disc on another donkey van so it soul lives on (obviously the disc contains the vans soul, it did spit it out when it died)
I can't believe you found a way to let the magic smoke out of a VAN. RIP donkey van.
i had this issue with my econoline. turned out to be mass-airflow sensor and ignition coils. hope this helps and you can get the donkey back up and running
Gentlemen, we are witnessing the death of the greatest hero of our time. At least it was able to part with Jamiroquai before leaving this world. RIP Donkey Van, you will be missed 🫡🇺🇸🇦🇺
This seems like the perfect opportunity to create the donkey sleeper you mentioned before... *hint hint
"Reduces pinging"
You can't ping if you don't have compression...
5:38 This is how water looks in my dad’s old Corolla when it idles.
This is like when you abruptly switch your diet to all-greens after a consistent year of fast food, and you end up shitting your guts out and closer to death than you've ever been in your entire life
I'm starting to think it was the CD keeping the donkey van alive and gave it back knowing it was gone
It's always these videos that are emotional than actual movies 😂
The van died but you got Jamiroquai back... A soul for a soul
"I got Jamiroquai back"
That's the van's dying breath. "carry on... my... legacy..."
Learning out the Donkey Van's death a few hours too late is like not knowing a lived one passed away while you're working. Rest in peace, Donkey Van, and may the great U-Pull-It in the sky provide you with a Barra 6 idk I dont know cars im just a broke college student.
This gives off vibes equivalent to "I don't know sir I just work here"
NOOOOOO. As a nugget lover myself, i'm devastated. RIP Donkey
As an American, I nearly lost my shit laughing when I saw "Immune to thong"
"if it isnt broke, dont fix it"
"there's still bananas in the diff" as much as I love this channel, I cannot act surprised when this car died because of how the poor beauty was treated. Sad day, but I can't say I'm surprised
What a beautiful tribute to a beautifully manky van. The trembling water bottle near the end of the montage was deeply touching in a way I can't describe. Rest in peace, Donkey Van.
Rip donkey van, you may have been immune to all attacks but you weren't immune to your engine dying
Watching these Aussie goofballs abuse the cheapest vehicles they can find like some kind of McGyver/Beavis and Butthead combo is probably one of the highlights of the combined Dankverse.
Fun fact: according to Subaru's service intervals, an entire can of that engine conditioner spray needs to be used every 20,000km!
So it dies quicker and you buy a new one
That's funny, 30K km's after I bought mine I changed the engine. Never mind the fact I bought it at 270K km's, or the fact the old engine still works, but I did it
@@sakurojason Stop with these stupid memes. Only 2.5 EJ engines are problematic. No other subaru has any issues like this.
@@Kacpa2 Would be nice if that was true.
@@CortyCze Then what is your story if you think it isnt?
The van returning the CD while on its death bed really got the tears rolling...
Literally started typing the word “tears” as soon as you said “no tears”
i have never been more heartbroken, rest in peace you donkey van. you will be sorely missed :(
RIP Donkey Van
It sacrificed its life to rebirth Jamiroquai into the world
Omg a new GT video c:
Edit: i would not be surprised if blowing out the billion miles worth of crud and buildup from the engine caused it to not seal properly now
Washed away the structural sludge
This reminds me of the urban story of Lemmy from Motörhead in the 90s. According to the story, a bunch of big stars were getting blood transfusions to cleanse their bodies of all the coke and stuff they misused in the 70/80s. And Lemmy was well known for living the rock & roll lifestyle. So he goes to see the doc and requests the that they pump him full off that good good clean blood. After a few tests and talks about his habits, the doc turns to Lemmy and says. "Dude, your blood is so fucked up that it would be instant death for any other human. If we were to give you a blood transfusion, your body would instantly shrivel up and die." So our good pal Lemmy shrugs his shoulders and return home, not more healthy, but filled with the knowledge that he is as a matter of fact the most metal man alive.
As someone who sets up blood transfusions in a hospital lab setting, that is the most ridiculous urban legend I've ever heard. Getting a blood transfusion unnecessarily would literally do nothing for them. Donor blood is so precious, I cannot imagine anywhere wasting it on something so stupid. Especially when, if the implication is that they have built up toxins in their blood that their body is somehow unable to get rid of, dialysis would do the job a million times better and not involve the hassle of a conplete exchange transfusion, which does not just involve RBCs but also involves fresh frozen plasma, cryopercipitate, and platelets. Again, all donated by people assuming the products would go to people in life threatening situations, not on useless "treatment" for rich people.
- Look, it has syncopated beat!
- No, it just blew a cylinder
I don't understand how such a lovingly maintained vehicle could just up and die like that.
Man I swear you laughing at that damn exhaust blowing smoke fucking killed me
I am legitimately crying right now. As a fellow nuggetier it's always sad when a beloved nugg gives it's last. I hope you consider a rebuild like you are doing for the free car.
So this is how the Donkey Van dies.
To thunderous applause.
The Donkey Van has lived for way longer than expected, so may it rest in the garage for now, until it gets rebuilt
The saddest story since the Titanic, can't believe a beloved character on the show has died
Hopefully the Donkey van can be rebuilt after the free car is finished.
The misadventures of Wade and James: the tale of the invincible donkey van
10:59 I love how you slowed down the footage to the point where your voice was perfectly in time with the music lmao
The donkey deserves respect the one that would never die
Rest in peace little van, gone but not forgotten
I was dead cackling when you finally got the Jamiroquai CD back
Once James fixes the Donkey, he will have ascended.
No longer a mechanic.
A necromancer.
I love how it gave you jamariqai back right before it died
we looked for a problem and killed it with a solution. best quote so far
there's something poetic on the fact that the Donkey Van's last service was giving back the Jamiroquai CD
The donkey van was immune to everything except the fate of every Magna ever
Technically, the can stops the enging from pinging by killing the engine altogether
this must be one of the most saddest events in Australian history :(
Right after the emu war.
You know it's a goner when you get Jamiroquai back from the head unit. RIP Donkey van
RIP donkey van, you and your helicopter diff hold a special place in all our hearts
This video was full of gems, but my favorite has to be "it's like Jurassic Park but with a big nugget instead"
Oh no! The amount of abuse this van has taken is nothing short of impressive, at least you got Jamiroquai out! 😭
I’m not immersed in donkey van lore, but I am HEARTBROKEN at this Mitsubishi van, it has brought me to tears it has started deteriorating. 😖
We have a similar "engine cleaning product" In the states. The most common one is called Seafoam. During use, they recommend holding the throttle at higher RPMs while putting it in the intake side. And after its burnt out, they recommend a spark plug change.

"IMPROVES PERFORMANCE
REDUCES PINGING

I love how that can of engine conditioner did the exact opposite of all those things, lmao.
