Everything about Engine Valves

This is a ridiculous amount of chat about engine valves and explains all their components, covering valve guides, faces, and the valve seats. We also touch on the two main faults that you might encounter with valves - bent or burnt.

As always:

No adverts.
No clickbait titles.
No fake thumbnails with pictures of stuff that isn't even in the video
No hustling for you to subscribe.
...Just straight up information

This valve gear is from a 2001 Mazda MX5 Miata.

As others have said, the quality of education and delivery in this video is just unrivaled. You are an excellent teacher and I've learned a lot!

[bestfix]

Unbeatable quality and thoughtfulness.

No more bullshit talk no intro music no head ace music nothing simple and lovely way to teach us 😉

I agree, to bad he hasn't uploaded in months I am doing my automotive service technician fundamentals course and this video I feel the way he explains it is way better than most of the channels I find when I'm looking up specific things

[kanokponkruasarn]

High quality video! Straight forward, easy to understand and no background music.

[HC-ovhh]

I must say my new friend you have the best channel for learning about the mechanics of automobiles. Thank you!!

[aniketsangewar]

best quality knowledge I have ever seen on youtube...each video shares in depth knowledge about the topic which is generally not captured in reading a book. pls continue to share such quality content

[mariospera]

This channel is worth many more views and subs

I’ve watched two videos and I’m sold. You’re the guy everyone needs to learn from. This is amazing content. Didn’t miss anything at all or leave anything out.

[jamescartwright]

I sell car parts for a living and yet I still occasionally learn a thing or two from your videos. Fantastic work

[elguapo]

I've never heard such a clear explanation of an interference engine. I've heard a few people half explain it.

[barbaduzas]

Bought your full course, cant wait to learn everything about my car!

[daviderhahon]

Interference engine and more....
So much shared knowledge beyond just engine valves.

Thanks for the video.

[RoxusRemo]

From finding your channel 30 mins ago to buying your course, thanks Alex. Just what I was looking for!

[VTECsqznNO]

Omg thank you. I now understand why people say interference motors can get damaged when the timing components break. Very helpful.

[thomasmiddlebrooke]

A well done video. What's really annoying about interference engines is when they put rubber timing belts on them. Then when the break, you lose the engine because you didn't change out a $50 belt. This is why I'm glad that for the most part, a few good auto makers (Toyota, Ford and others) make non-interference engines with timing chains, or at least chains when they are interference engines.

One of the best videos about cars .. thank u

[albinlelievre]

Very clear and high quality vid and channel.
if i may say something, you forgot to mention how the spring is keeping the valve closed. (caps and retainer...)

[sumitmajumder]

Passion is visible by your teaching sense and knowledge

Great video - would have been nice to show the valve seals up close unless I missed it. I just replaced 16 seals on my 2003 Suburban. What a job that was! No more burning oil though! 243k and going strong. Thanks!
