Will it Run & Drive Home Cheap QX56 - Cheapest Tow Vehicle on FB Marketplace Breaks Down! 

If the plug tubes pass thru the valve cover then there is a seal between valve cover and plug tube. Over time these can harden and cause a leak where oil accumulates down below in the spark plug tube. Easy fix. But the valve cover needs to come off.

1 of my friends ran his car out of gas once, and paged me for a dead of night rescue (yes, this was before cell phones). After purchasing a couple of gallons of gas, then finding him on the side of the road, I told him the same piece of advice I will share with you: until you know the vehicle better, E doesn't mean "Extra"😁

have fun in the snow

Hopefully you have more luck with it in the future cause the rest of your tow pigs became bacon 😂 best of luck Jason can't wait for the next video

I love your never say never attitude!!!’

Best content thus far signed the seller. P.S I can confirm his story to be true 😀😀 I’m definitely convinced he’s cursed with bad luck 😂 mixed with a natural kindness 👍🏽 You’ve gained not only a new SUV to your fleet but a new follower ! Best of luck ! PS still looking for that second key 😁

Eventually, you will have bought that many QX's that you can build a whole new one. Looking forward to see the next rescue.

I smash that like button !!! Your honesty and sense of humor make my day !!! Enjoy the weekend !!

Like button smashed thanks for the reminder looking forward to the rescue 😊 🇦🇺

What an adventure that was...sorry you had to huff it back to the shop..but fortunately you were not to far away...cool content as always and what will you get yourself into next🤔😎🇺🇸🛠️🔧 appreciate you sharing your adventure with us.

Always hit that like button! Even when you buy crappy tow vehicles. p0420 is always expensive... But your '66 Beetle is cool, and of course it will start. Sounds like you need to adjust those valves, however...

Cant wait for the ultimate Bus rescue!! I am so stoked!!! I always smash the like for you Rad Dude!!!

Dad had an 04 Nissan Armada. great car, too much power, insane towing capacity so long as you remember to press the Tow Mode button. The only thing I can recall going bad in his was the window regulators started going out around 7 years in when he traded it in.

I always hit the like Button 👍. Looking forward to the next one . I love how you have such big engined cars over there . Beetle to the rescue 😃.

Another great purchase for the fleet!

That became the QX80. I know someone who had a new one recently. It was absolutely amazing to drive. I felt like royalty.

I always hit the like button because I've never watched a video of yours that I didn't like 😁

I hit the like button !, I do forget to do that sometimes Jason, so thanks for the reminder. I think that new truck might have need of a new fuel gauge sender if it didn’t register empty. If it’s just doing 5 miles per gallon there’s an underlying issue there with the over rich fuelling. Are you able to run some dynamic running tests on that code reader you have ?, so you can see the fuelling result as you drive it (you can review them after you switched off the engine).

llke smashed. Another great vid. Good luck on the stream buses, man!

Awesome vid Jason! You need to stay away from those Nissans ! 😂😂

awesome channel you have. Nice and calm vibes. And funny. Cheers from Sweden 🙂🚙

awesome as always

Excellent video Jason :) also when get gas station put 89 octane with 5% Ethonal or 91 octane gas with no 0 % Ethonal also put Grey bottle of STP Total Treatment fuel injection and carb cleaner in fuel tank also Gasoline antifreeze to and do every month too ! That cure codes and should clean out 2 times on check out and do with engine running too! If do this you past Emmisson Test and don't shut vechile before do test helps let technician do only want have warm engine!

jealous of you NH guys and your temp tags! 😄

Cheers mate

10:30 the valve cover gasket, has individual spark plug hole seals. And one or more of those are leaking, giving you the dreaded “self oiling spark plugs “. In order to fix that, you will need to put new valve cover gaskets on your heads. When you pull your spark plugs, all that oil accumulated dumps down the hole, and burns in the combustion chamber when you start it. That’s where all the smoke is coming from. And. Not trying to speak this into existence. But, all that oil burning can do a real “what fer” to your already archaic and fragile catalytic converters. Causing your O2 sensors to flag the check engine ligh once again. So, as Carl says….”You’ve got THAT going for you”. Great video, thank you for your work.

I watch Jasons videos to see how many times he mentions “ Mustie1” in a vid! 😂 Congrats and go get that bus!

😊👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍 The last suv I bought I checked it all over it had 105 k on it just came up from Florida clean clean clean underneath leather all the goodies and a pile of mantanance records the asking price started at $3800 after picking it apart finding mostly mantanance related issues I bought it for a thousand bucks. You got to look at things for clues on how your wallet is about to be emptied. I worked as a mechanic and body man for many years so I know what to look for. I always recommend a pre buy inspection to anyone by a mechanic you know preferably. It can save you many dollars and many headaches ( if you stop hitting your head on the hood especially)😅 the oil on the spark plug or plugs is the valve cover gasket is likely dried up and leaking oil in the spark plug hole and you may want to change the pcv value which may be plugged or nearly plugged. I hate newer cars these days with all this computer garbage. Give me a car built before 1968 any day.😊👍

King of the Rolling Stops!

Always buy the next greatest best of all time vehicle, there should be a warning message with every car, something will happen not as planned. Thanks Josh for great finds bug life

Jen writes the best scripts! Your acting is pretty good, also. I will worry if you start adopting cats. Thanks for sharing!

At least it was only a two mile walk. I had an old 110 Land Rover. It never broke down at the house, always miles away form home or help. Fourteen mile walk was the longest, no mobiles in those days

I watch this channel just to see what crap you get yourself into.

smashed it bra!

At least you're getting some exercise... 🙂 Good luck with the stream wagons -

I swear... I'm not laughing at you, I'm laughing WITH you! Just put twin turbos on a VW bus and use it as a tow pig and stop buying junkers. Jeez!!😂😂😂 Cheers from Argentina, man!!

Smashed!

I always smash the like button even if I don't always comment (not looking for any medals). Why not call a scrap/junk yard and get them to take all the other trucks away that do not work? You should get some scrap value I think and keep Jen happy. I don't know anything about these cars but generally codes appear when the battery is flat and or been disconnected for a while. If the radiator has a hair line crack you should be able to braze it without too much trouble and leaving it in the car just put some protection around all the plastic parts. Good luck Jason, I hope you make it to New Hampshire and back home again. 👍👍.

When you said no rear tag….I thought you were gonna see lights in your mirror 😁 Pimpin grill 😂 Ouch! Bumped the head, twice🤦🏼‍♂️ Damn! I can’t believe you got stranded 😳 Out of gas 🙁 Bus time!! I always hit like my friend!

Good video J! I usually leave some kind of smart a$$ comment but this time......my experience with infinity, worked on a couple G37 3.5l, theres 2 fuel sending units in the tank, 1 for the dash, 1 for the info center. So they could both be bad. No experience with the 5.6. But just my 2 cents. Have a great day.😂

nice job.

Man you've been striking out with the tow rigs lately. Is the K3500 out of the game? I vote for a ramp truck or a beaver tail next

Nice to know im not the only one to run out of gas in a newer vehicle😂 Overall looks like a good purchase Jason

11:40 you can pump out your tranny fluid by: Buying 3 gallons of transmission fluid and. 1. Drain, and change your transmission filter. 2. Add 4 quarts 3. Disconnect the two trans cooling lines to your radiator , determine which one is the exit from the rad. By putting them both in a clear one gallon washer solvent bottle, and starting the car. Don’t pump out more than you put in IE, don’t run the pump dry. 4. Remove a gallon, add a new gallon, remove a gallon , add a new gallon. 5. The system holds about 3 gallons. You will see it getting clearer as you progress. 6. The circuit starts in the pan, up through the valve body, into the torque converter then out to the radiator to be cooled. So, adding fresh fluid to the pan, simply allows the other old fluid to be pumped out. 7. It’s messy unless you’re careful. Try with 3 quarts at a time. That way, you won’t over flow the gallon jug. 8. Connect everything back up, run the car, and top off if it’s low.

Hope those Bus's come out in one piece !

VK56 nissan's big block of engines, these with varable valve timing with turbo are insane, sadly they were only sold in america, japan or the rest of the world never got them nor that engine

Not having a lot of luck with cheap cars but every streak comes to an end hope urs does soon 👌🔚

Linda picap . Uma máquina.

Need 100+ miles for the sensors to resins in to the computer to pass it for emmitions.

If it weren’t for bad luck, J , you’d have no luck at all 😅

The 420 code means blaze the tires.

I hit the 👍 before I watch lol

That's like one of my typical purchases 🤣

🇦🇺👍good video

Nice truck, that Infinity, we hardly see those over here in Europe. I live in a rural area in the Netherlands, you'll see some landrovers, Toyota Hi-Lux or Landcruisers banging about, alas no big American F150 or anything like that. Must be the EU and their protectionist 'guidelines'.

You work with bugs and get gas and spark 1st. Those 2 things are needed on every vehicle. It was on E.

😂😂😂 "420" code!!!

Auqua buses here we come... Get you snorkel and flippers !!

Liked button SMASHED ❤

The good life brother 😂

Hand tight Plugs blowing oil past the Plugs, Oops you didn’t wait for the Catalytic to clear 😳 try A Bottle of Cataclean Additive

👍

Jay, I am smh. Where are your gloves? LoL

U have oil N the hole probably because the valve cover is leaking

Nice, not having to stop for the signs………

Buses in the stream ❤

CLASSIC! LOL!

230 hundred thousand miles The gas gage looked bad to me. Josh should have brought you gas on his new Honda.

😱 Why, Sir, why? 🙈

Hello mate

Ya gotta lay off the Nissans. They do little cars OK in the US but I've never been wowed by their trucks / SUVs.

Only one part will fix it! Chevy!

1535 Views only 758 likes come on guys help J out !

Can you reset the tyre pressure light 😅 🇬🇧

4.7 mpg????????? Is there a wick burning from the tank?

“E” is for enough? 😂

You may consider the button smashed.

She passed 👍

4.7 mpg really SUCKS!😢

No ratchet no gas no gas can no wench battery no luck. 😮

Lol watch the head man

buy a chevy truck 4.3. - V 6 IS THE 350 BLOCK WITH THE 2 FRONT CYL . CUT OFF

it has to happen to you

18:00 very strange

I think you need a Reliable Tow Truck. A Tundra or something. Fancy vehicles scare me, too complicated, too many things go wrong. Ya, I watch you way too much.

Just to let you know, that's not a Veedub!!

look at ur camera footage...gas gauge never moved...check ur float mechanism in gas tank

Infinity fan boy or just a glutton for punishment? Lol😅😅

Stop signs?? No cop no stop

try to find A VW in RI ,way too much money bummer

Next time, let Mustie 1 find you a tow rig. You haven't had the best of luck.

You need a Doctor, Jason. You love to punish yourself for some reason. Now, if you sold all the non running "tow" vehicles you may be able to get something that ...................... works.

If you're pushing all your dead tow vehicles into the woods behind your house somebody in 20 years is going to be making recovery videos about saving trucks behind a crazy old vw guys house

You know those firemen who start fires just to put them out and be heroes, or those nurses who drug a patient so they can rescue them? It's kinda like that. 🤣

Do you not do any research

4.7mpg......wtf

just want to say, excellent full stops at all the stop signs. NOT

It's really a kind of off-topic video, with no interest other than to make "more" on YT

You seem to like buying someone's else's problem vehicle lol

All the cheap unreliable trucks you buy, surely it would work out cheaper to buy a newer decent truck.
