Dissecting an Engine, The Basic Parts and Their Function - EricTheCarGuy
http://www.ericthecarguy.com/
I've had more than one request for this and since I had a few hours while sitting on my butt waiting for my Dodge engine to show up I thought I would fill the time by making this video for you. I have to say that after the first edit I wasn't too happy and went back and reshot not once but twice and even then I still felt I didn't cover it the way I liked. I should really start scripting these videos, it would make my life soo much easier. Anyway don't be too rough on me if you have differing opinions as I'm willing to accept them in the comments if you are nice about it but if your going to tear me a new one then please make a video of your own explaining why as at least then we will be on the same playing field.

Well here it is the first of the Civic engine series, I hope you like these as they are a little 'lighter' than those trucks I've been working on lately.

I've probably been asked about doing this video more than any with this Subaru and I'm happy to bring it to you now. I did make some mistakes when it came to using the buffer so try and learn from those by not using the terry cloth attachment and also making sure you don't stay in one place too long, otherwise stick to the directions and do stuff by hand, do it fast enough and it will be good cardio.
You can find the Quixx kit that I used at Walmart, Pep Boys, and Autozone in addition to your local auto parts supplier.

The Basic Parts of a Car -EricTheCarGuy
"The Basic Parts of a Car" has actually been a long standing request to me, I was glad to be able to fill that request with this video. I will say that I didn't cover EVERYTHING but I feel this is a pretty good overview of the basic components of a modern car. Feel free to add your own input in the comments. Here are those video links I promised that may give you more in depth information.

As I said in the video I've been asked about this video for some time and I was happy to get the opportunity to make it. Now that I think about it however I did not address ABS systems in this video however the Subaru used does have ABS. I'll probably make that amendment in a future Re: video. For the most part however this is how I do it ABS or not.

No Start, Diagnostic Basics - EricTheCarGuy
This video is a response to the Honda Main Relay video that I did. I've had a couple of people come to me with questions about no start conditions and how they should go about fixing them. This video is a starting point to a series that I plan to cover on this subject. The point I make in the video over and over is, don't make assumptions. Assumptions get expensive and can frustrate you to the point of homicide, follow these simple tips and it will lead you down the path of success.

No Crank, No Start Diagnosis - EricTheCarGuy
Visit me at
http://www.ericthecarguy.com/
Whenever you have a no start condition when attempting to start your vehicle it's important to make the distinction between "no crank, no start" and "crank, no start" situations as they are treated differently. This video covers what I do when confronted with a 'no crank, no start' situation and in this case it's a worst case scenario so be sure to watch till the end.

Here is the 'uncut' version of the oil change video that I did some time ago, the one thing I wish I had done differently in this video is that I would have shown putting a little bit of oil into the filter before installation as this would help with lubrication during start up.

F1 Turbo - The most scary race cars ever (Feel the torque)
Brilliant footage of formula 1 driver Johnny Dumfries in the 98T Renault F1 turbo John Player Special. On the circuit in Adelaide he is in 11th place. Listen to the torque of this remarkable Renault F1 engine. You can "feel" the power when you turn up your speaker volume. Nothing is compared to the real thing obviously.
These drivers were genuine heroes with no fear at all and a big big heart. Listen to the engine noise and look at the skills the driver need to have to keep this beast on the road. These engines had up to 1400 Bhp.

Does Stop Leak Work? - EricTheCarGuy
Does Stop Leak Work? - EricTheCarGuy
http://www.ericthecarguy.com/
As technicians we all have opinions based on our experiences and sometimes the experiences of others, stop leak seems to be one of those things. In my experience it really hasn't done much for me and I haven't seen it perform any miracles but that's not to say that it hasn't at one time or another. I welcome your responses on this topic and look forward to hearing your opinions just be nice.

What is VTEC and How Does it Work? - EricTheCarGuy
I've been editing some full length video this week and I came across this bit from a car I worked on last spring. The animations are courtesy Honda Motor Company, thanks guys. I think the title is self explanatory and I hope the video makes it a little clearer for those who are curious about this system and how it works. I've had a couple of requests for this and I hope this answers those questions.
