If you have charging or electrical problems, don't go get your battery tested or the alternator... ALWAYS DO BOTH TOGETHER!
Will save you a lot of time and headaches in the long run, I promise.
Gonna leave this sticky for a few days so more of ya'll can see it. Will be incorporated, soon hopefully, in a permanent sticky with
"The Truth about Cars"
You might also want to include this on that sticky:
You all need to go visit Scotty's Youtube Playlist page.
https://www.youtube.com/c/ScottyKilmermechanic/playlists
There are three pages of categories that Scotty videos have been nicely oragnised into.
This is nice thanks especially because the titles are misleadingly confusing sometimes lol thanks!
they are clickbait and I can't stand it
@mountainmanjoe ... Thank you. Sometimes its hard to find this.
Only thing about Scotty's YouTube is he hides "off topic" inside videos. Those helpful hints should have their own video.
I didn't try it but maybe the descriptions are searchable and if the hints were seperated inside the description we could find them that way.
Just a couple suggestions for sticky notes - "Be sure to tell us year, make, model,mileage"
How about a "top ten" of Scotty videos - probably include "Crank, no Start" "Clean your MAF/Throttle body with spray cleaner" "Checking for intake leaks" "What does a Check Engine Light Mean" and the like.
Keep up the good work!
It's shown right at the top of the screen when users post a new question:
Submit Your Question HERE
Ask me anything about cars. Please include your car’s Year-Make-Model, mileage, manual or automatic, OBDII codes (if scanned). If buying a used car, specify if from dealership or private party.
If they don't see that, then they're not going to read a sticky post about it.
@hillbilly, will the Sticky be categorized by topic/common problems with links to Scotty’s videos for each? Something like that would help people so they can go there first and try before posting a question.
It's a work in progress, but yes, that is the intention for a user friendly organization (common issues) so folks can find answers to common questions fast and easy.
Will the new sticky topic have information from other users like information or lists or just Scotty's stuff? Also is it being worked on now or is it a future proposal?
It will be what it will be, and it'll be ready when it's ready. I hope that answers your question.
I understand thank you very much. It will be what it will be is enough we will see it when it is done is your passive logic which happens to answer my question so thx!
