The most important thing that will make your engine last 500k+ miles is to change your oil regularly.

0:00 Valve Cleaning
2:38 PCV Valve
5:20 Carbon Cleaning

[jimtownsend]

Ways to Make a Vehicle Last Forever: 1. Change oil at regular intervals, 2. Run gas additive (I like Lucas Upper Cylinder Cleaner) periodically to keep injectors and valves clean, and 3. Don't let your 20 yr. old granddaughter drive it.

A HUGELY important thing that has kept all of my cars running well for soo many year's are Scotty's YouTube videos! Ive learned and saved so much over the years! Huge thanks Scotty!!! 😎👍👍

The cat at 5:04 was like "I don't think so!" The thing with the now old Houston videos was the sweat. I would not want to spend a summer in Houston. But the one thing that I've found that can really avoid a lot of problems and make a car last longer is just by simply changing the engine oil and transmission fluid on a regular basis.

Thanks for this Scotty- I'm using CR505 now based on your rec. It's pricier than the others but then again my car's old & deserves it!

[johnmakary]

Thank you for sharing your time and wisdom with us Sir. You have guided me through many uncertain automotive challenges.

[paulcentineo]

This video was perfect timing for me, my son has a 2015 Outback with that near stalling issue. We changed out the air filter which wasn't bad but I ordered that 505 CRF stuff as well. We did a throttle body cleaning not too long ago but I may check that again as well. Thanks, Scotty!

Priceless video performance with the info for the PCV valve.

[michaelrobinson]

Scotty, thank you for all you do for cheap people like me. God bless you and your Loved ones. And your new kitty 🐈.

[wwocbhe]

Thanks Scotty for your sage advice.
Q - Do you recommend a stand alone fitted temp sensor alarm. In Australia it’s called Engine Guard and costs about $80US.

I can assure you all with GDI engines clean them valves once a year. I waited 3 and put a fuel system treatment in my tank while using the intake valve clean. After doing darn near close to everything Scottie said (I followed the STP can) I got a code. The P0420 code (catalytic converter not working properly). Ran an cleaner that specifically clears the code (cleans the catalytic converter) and I was on my way. When you wait to clean them Intake valve once your car detects the catalytic converter running 5 or more % less efficient it triggers the code. In my case I cleaned (blew off a lot) off carbon build up.

Scotty great as always, my transmition in my 2006 hyundai sonata started slipping when hot and at 177000 i decided to replace it with a low mileage one since the 4 cylinders running great and the cars in great shape. Most likrly it could be the convertor so a trans swap. Found a great buick 3.8 one owner with 120000 miles and like new.
