USA news on Youtube Dec 29 2018

before I started my youtube channel 11 years ago I used to do a TV gig, I did

that on CBS TV for a couple of decades and people are saying, Scotty whatever

happened to those old videos you did, well I dug around on my messy garage and

found a bunch of these old videos, so here's some old school Scotty, sister in

Denver 15 years ago, you're a god send, a Savior, no I'm just

the postman, if you write me with your questions I guarantee I'll answer them before

15 years is up, Rachel from Houston writes, I have to keep jump-starting my

car, somebody told me I probably have an electrical short, how can I find out what

it is, well Rachel that's pretty easy, you just

need one of these six dollar test lights, and here's how they work

stick the lead on the negative battery terminal, then stick the other end on the

positive, the light is on so you know the light is working, now you just loosen the

terminal on the negative and pull it off, now take the end of the test light put

it back on the disconnected terminal and stick it in the negative battery

terminal, the light comes on there's a short somewhere, now we have to figure

out where, so we'll go to the fuse box take the top off and start pulling the

fuses out one at a time, when we get to the correct fuse the

light will go out it, wasn't that fuse, let's try another fuse, we'll check the next

fuse when we pull it out the light goes out, so that's where the problem is

that's the dome fuse, so there's a problem in your dome light, if you don't

want to go through the trouble of going through all the wiring and trying to

find where the short is, you can just go and take the bulb out of the dome light

then it won't drain any electricity, you won't have a dome light but you won't

have a problem anymore with your battery draining, Elizabeth from Seabrook writes

I'm thinking about maintaining my own car, I want to change my oil and filter

how should I do it correctly, well Elizabeth it's pretty simple, just get

one of these drain pans that cost about three dollars, then I unscrew the top so

you can drain your oil and put it under the car, then get an old empty milk jug

and have a radiator funnel these cost about 99 cents and they fit right into

the jug, then when the oil is done draining, put the top back on and pour it

into the milk jug so you don't spill it anywhere, if you live in the city of

Houston like me, throw it in your recycling bin, the city will take it away, if you

don't live in a recycling area, just go to any auto parts store they all take

used motor oil, the only other tip you need concerns the

oil filter, before you put the oil filter on, get some clean oil stick a little on

the end of your finger, and wipe it all over the gasket of the oil filter

because if you don't make it oily it won't seal right and it'll leak

or it'll be really hard to get off the next time, so just put a little bit of

clean oil before you screw the filter on, Joseph from Huntsville writes, my friend

recently had to have a headlight replaced on his

car and it cost more than $300, is there anything I can do to keep mine from

cracking, well there is Joseph, their these

headlight covers you can get a pair of these for around thirty five bucks or so

for most cars, they just fit right over the headlights, you just snap them on so

when rocks hit them, they won't crack the headlight and instead of having to buy a

$200 or more headlight assembly if these really get hit hard, you just have to buy

another pair of these for 35 bucks or so, so if you've got an urgent question drop

the postman a line, I'll answer it as fast as I can,

so if you never want to miss another one of my new car repair videos, remember to

ring that Bell!
