A Master Automobile Technician and Engine Specialist explains how car engines work behind the scenes.
We essentially take an engine apart to explain everything from the basic operation to how things are done inside the engine. This video is full with diagnosis tips and general knowledge that I hope would benefit gasoline engine owners in their day to day operation of a gasoline engine.

I have no problem with in dept videos like this. You uploading long videos like this just shows how much you care to give subscribers content and quality content at that.

@davidglad Месяц назад

He certainly does a better job explaining engineering than Engineering Explained, lol

@andriib9390 Месяц назад

dude you haven't even had time to watch the video before commenting

@sharkeatinpizza Месяц назад

@andriib9390 doesn't matter, you post the kind of content that AMD does and you quickly build a reputation for high quality content and possessing a truly deep knowledge base

I’ve worked in a Toyota engine factory for over 25 years and I currently work with folks who have No idea how an engine works. It frustrates me (inwardly mostly) when we detect an issue during assembly and these folks have no idea why the issue makes the engine no good. This should be required viewing for everyone in our factory. The cylinder head is the most meticulous part of the engine in my view. The valves have 3 angles that must be a perfect width. The valve seat has a spec. of 1.2mm to 1.4 mm in the middle angle sealing surface. If they are not in that spec. the exhaust valve will “burn.” That used to be very difficult to keep in spec. during machining. The pressed in valve stem tube must have a certain roughness spec. to”hold” some oil between the stem and the tube or the engine will burn oil. The valve stem seal has to allow some oil to pass to the stem to lubricate the stem in the tube. That is a very delicate balancing act. The cross-hatch on the engines I build are allowed to be “hatched” from a 28 to 30 degree angle so oil will stay on the cylinder wall. Most folks have no idea how much testing and checking of the geometry of an engine. The journal on the crankshaft has a roundness spec of 3 microns! A micron equals 1/1000 of a millimeter. This is why Toyota engines last so long. Good video AMD!!!

@chrisclemons7564 18 дней назад

I love this comment. It’s nice to see the many many little things (micron tolerances) that go into one big thing (an engine that will last forever).

As a young woman who lost her father 10 years ago, I’ve learned more about cars from AMD in 6 months than the mechanic I’ve been going to for 10 years. May God Bless you and give you the time in your busy schedule to teach us (especially, us ladies) how to avoid scams and how to ACTUALLY maintain our vehicles.

@Cocora22 Месяц назад

100%, I watch him all the time and learned how to do a lot of the basic service on my GX. It's silly that I know more about my vehicle than some mechanics where I live. That's another reason why I have really pushed myself to learn. Save money AND save my car.

@jsun3117 Месяц назад

He's also corresponds with Car Wizard in the Wichita, Kansas area from time to time. Scotty Kilmer is sorta the loner YT mechanic that doesn't nor ever really associates with the others. Another master tech on this level is Eric the Car Guy who specializes in Honda/Acura.

@sweetwatersrundeep Месяц назад

I own a 90’s Honda so anything this man and Eric the Car Guy say is gold! AMD is a natural-born teacher and his dedication, obsession and perfectionism shows in the quality of his videos.

After viewing this posting, anyone who doesn't have an appreciation for how important regular and frequent oil changes are to the operation and longevity of an internal combustion engine must be even dumber than I am. TCCN did a great job of explaining it.

This video makes crystal clear why regular oil changes are critical to the life of an engine. And the crankshaft -- machined from a single piece of steel -- miraculous.

It use to be as an elective course as early as jr.high school when I was growing up in the 80’s. But the powers that be decided these types of elective courses that provide practical knowledge wasn’t worth it and they got thrown out with budget cuts.

My 17 year old son has been asking for a couple of years how an engine works.... well, you made his day. Videos like this are one of the many reasons why I watch and support you!!! Please never stop!!!

@CedroCron Месяц назад

My dad was a mechanic for 50 years before he passed 2 years ago. His advice: "Look after your car with maintenance, and it will look after you with trouble free miles". I've never had a breakdown ever (Other than a couple of flat tires) and I've driven over 1.5M miles for my job on the road. Timely fluid changes before the manufacturer tells you change them, regular inspections looking for worn out parts before the winter including the electrical system and battery health. That's all it takes! No magic. Just a little bit of TLC and a few dollars. I keep all my vehicles at least 20 years and retire them around 300-400K miles. Original transmissions and engines. I've saved a boatload not being on the perpetual car payment machine. You can too!

I’ve been researching tons on cars lately and this answered my longest standing one yet. I knew the fundamentals but seeing an engine literally broken down part by part helped immensely. Now I just need to learn how to perform specific tasks to work on an engine

@rayRay-pw6gz 10 дней назад

In my day , purchasing a high quality tech manual was key. My first engine breakdown was a 900 Kawasaki 4 cylinder double overhead cam engine done by the book . No prior training. Young with no fear.

Excellent video. My 14 year old grandson is getting car fever and been asking me many questions about cars and engines. My education after high school was aircraft maintenance at the Institute of Aviation which was at the university of Illinois in Champaign-Urbana. My training was on aircraft radial engines where we learned overhaul, troubleshooting, etc. The last 30 plus years of my career was on commercial jets and turbine engines. I’m 75 and still working on cars and now passing on my knowledge to my grandson. He wants to do a project car which may be a bit more than I can handle. Got the tee shirt of that experience with my son on a Mazda RX-7. So texted my grandson this video link as you explained the theory so well. I really enjoy your videos and knowledge. I just bought a 2024 Toyota Prius Prime. Watched your video and it reinforced my decision to pursue the purchase. Cheers

@busso125 Месяц назад

Its nice to hear a person who appreciates what goes into an engine design. Every part has a calculation to it. People who criticise engines that fail prematurely, often due to small design error, have typically never designed or built anything. You should do a comparison between say a toyota engine and a cheaper not so good engine that has fewer bearing journals to save cost etc. Then people will begin to appreciate what their money is actually buying.

A massive explosion of flame forced out in all directions pushing down the piston , rotating the crankshaft and creating power. I hope I got that right. You are a good Toyota mechanic. I appreciate your videos.

@mark-wn5ek Месяц назад

An engine is essentially an air pump. Add fuel and it produces power by virtue of combustion. The efficiency of the pump…sucking in the air and exhausting the burned fuel determines how it converts the fuel into useful energy. Pretty simple concept…but a lot goes into making it happen. Good video.

Dude. I’ve know how engines work for a long time. I’ve worked on cars since Daddy put a wrench in my hand. I do not do this as a profession just a hobby. I’ve watched hundreds of hours of videos. This has damn near my favorite designation period. I’m only 7 minutes in and I had to comment. Which for the amount of RU-vid I watch is almost never. But my guy. This is WHAT RU-vid was meant for and why it’s the best platform on the internet. Because of creators like you. Right, wrong, indifferent to you as in your particular opinions. But you Sir have proven to me that RU-vid is still a viable and extrinsic part of the human encyclopedia. Thank you for your contribution Sir.

@Dac54 Месяц назад

This was the best tutorial of how a gasoline engine works that I've ever seen, heard, or even read. I really liked how easily he explained why premium fuel is so important on certain engines and totally unnecessary on those that don't require it. Since I live in the arid and hot Southwest, I use middle grade gasoline for my wife's Buick Encore since it's a small turbo 4 cylinder engine. Premium fuel is unnecessary and a waste of money, but middle grade strikes the ideal balance between premium and regular.
