Hoovie, I just wanted to drop you a note. I'm a tech at a dealership. The blown head gaskets most always lead to bottom end issues. The issue you talked about running crapy on startup, could mean coolant in the cylinders not as a vapor but liquid. This could be bad for bearings, very bad, but not noticed until too late. Please have these guys at Wizards check the rod bearings and if it was at my shop I'd check for rod damage. This could be a very costly and bad situation if not checked, but only a couple hundred bucks to be sure all is good. I watched this video last night and its been bothering me ever since. I've said my piece, thanks for the video, keep them coming.

Can we take a moment to appreciate the systematic and thorough sorting of all those engine parts on that cart? It not only makes the neat freak in me happy, it's also the kind of attention to detail and thoroughness I like to see in a car mechanic.

Daniel was a great Wizard hire. Love how organized he is and definitely knows his stuff

The dashboard and door panels on many VAG products are made from hemp fiber and resin. That's why the hole makes the dashboard look like wood.

It's unfortunate to see Hoovie go through life changes such as a divorce. The silver lining here is at least he has a great place within the hanger to store his remaining cars as well as his personal things. Even if its just temporary, its a nice fall back which a lot of guys don't generally have available to them during times like these. Thanks Hoovie for continuing to provide great content during such a difficult situation! Much appreciated.

Damn, Hoovie cant catch a break lately... I just hope he doesnt get alymony'ed to death. Godspeed, Hoovie.

I love it how the Wizard's garage actually takes engines apart and works on them. It's awesome to see, they're not just replacers, they're actually mechanics.

You and Freddie should just move in together like the odd couple of cars. One guy who works on the cars and the other who doesn't. Oh the shenanigans.

I am so glad, despite what is going on in your life, you seem to be doing OK. All the best really, enjoy watching your channel.

Tyler is such a cool guy: down to earth, respectful, well spoken and creats enjoyable content! Good job Tyler!

The cylinder head nuts were loose because the engine was over heated, causing the head to expand and be crushed by the nut. When the engine cooled, the head is now less thick so the nuts are loose. I've seen this on Mercedes and Rolls/Bentley engines that had never been apart. Sometimes the head studs/bolts will also strip-which can be a nasty surprise when re-assembling the engine. Good luck.

I’ll never get over the Buick door hit. It’s a treasured piece of history now 😂

I know the 599 wasn't well loved when it came out, but its actually quite beautiful.

Hang in there buddy, your fans are here to help you get to the other side of this thing. I hope young men are taking notes...

How much money has Hoovie spent shipping cars?

Glad to see the Mustang & Maybach fixed, and hopefully you're doing better too, take care of yourself 🙂

Tyler is the perfect guy to do business with man. What a class act

Loving these videos! Keep em coming Hoovie!!!

This channel is a great fantasy of vicarious car purchases you always wanted but couldn't afford + a comedy of a man dealing with all the issues said cars have. I love it.

Love you, Tyler! Things are going to work out, so sorry that you are going through it, it really is heart breaking 💔 and I know your daughters wellbeing is probably your biggest priority, and thats because you are a good dad, youll always have that, man, and that is a true blessing 😊❤️

Love you Tyler hope everything is going as well as can be bud stay strong

Jeez...! Sarasota Florida they charge $175/hr to fix my 94-96 F-series trucks...! Thanks, keep up your awesomeness...

I haven't seen Magic Mike in a while in the Wizard videos. It is good to see he is still working for the Wizard in the background

As the crank turns these are the rotations of their lives

All engines are very complicated to work on. The more cylinders, the more complication. This why when I am working on engines, I don't let anyone come up and start talking to me ( like Hoovie😂). Even in a simple oil change, you can miss one thing and ruin a motor. Those head bolts have to be tightened in a certain pattern and that pattern could even be two phases of completely different bolt tightenings too. This is just one crucial part of many crucial parts of a great engine rebuild. Also, once the engine is run in safely for 600 miles or maybe 10 hours, those head bolts have to retightened again. Valves may need to be readjusted. Many other bolts tightness may need to be checked. In a certain pattern. In a certain way.A new engine is like a balloon. It grows when hot and then it shrinks when cool. They are designed to allow for that but necessary torque settings on everything in the engine have to be obeyed to let any engine survive that. In low powered engines, these procedures are usually much simpler to complete but in high powered engines, they are mandatory. All of them. There is no short cutting the mechanic or saving the cost of the follow up engine rebuild maintenance procedure. These head bolts will back off and this kind of head gasket issue will happen. And most of the time, as soon as that coolant starts scoring the cylinders, a very expensive engine disassembly and repair has to be done. With ALL of the crucial steps to have to be done all over again. Having this kind of mechanical lack of attention happen on a piece of artwork that is a Ferrari engine is truly sad to see but it proves that every great mechanic is worth his or her weight in gold. That black Ferrari is simply gorgeous. Definitely on my lottery list if that ever happens. I'm not holding my breath.😂

I was the airline pilot that said hello to you at O'Hare on the 16th. Hope your travels were pleasant.

Great video Hoovie, has been quite time seeing your hoovie cars getting dialed and fix.👍

This guys organizational skills is on point!

Gotta love Daniel-sans dry humour!

The 599 is my absolute goal dream car. There arents a lot of videos like yours going thhis in-depth. So, I 've got to thank you for this experience. Not sure if i'll ever get to get into one myself

Hoove, great to see you back up again after getting knocked down as hard as you have (and no, I'm not quoting Chumbawamba, LOL). Keep pushing on, and DRIVING ON 😁

Its been great watching you get your groove back. The Murcie is heart breaking for us too but you know the routine. In a couple of years it pops up in the hangar because you bought it back from Dan on your right of first refusal.

Ooh a Phaeton at the Car Wizard's shop!

Regardless to the repairs cost,Hoovie still promotes his 'Repairman's' new YT channel.That's Class.

My next-door neighbor's son bought one of those W12 VWs back when they were new. It was pretty cool at the time.

Hoovie: what do you think of the estimate? Wizard: *Takes a look at an estimate Wizard: I should just raise my rates. Lmao Enjoy seeing you both!

I love your channel hoovie you and wizzard are so wholesome. Stand up guys

“I’m goofy hoofy! Look how silly I am! Yuk yuk yuk! I act silly!”

Never ever ever give your mechanic an invoice from another shop😂😂😂

Good luck Hoovie! 🙂

I enjoy watching you guys.

Love both the wizard and the ninja and the other mechanicals. Really appreciate the videos!

So your having problems with nuts and bolts? Poor Hoovie🙏

So sad to see the Murcielago gone

Damn, that Mustang sounds amazing! :O

I currently listen to videos on my slightly base rich headphones. at 2:15 I was hearing a nice engine sound behind me (So whichever microphone was in use does a lovely job 🤓) . I'm wishing Tyler Lots of positive luck right now, because of all the changes. Take care Hoovie.

Great video Hoovie 🏁🏁🏁

That V12 block is crazy looking.

Tyler, I have been thinking about that Mustang for a minute and wondered why you dont use that pressurized oil system any more? Its job is to prevent the rocker failure you have had. Rollers shouldnt need it but that tank behind your seats needs to be pressurized and opened before a cold start to keep that race engine lubed.

New to your channel, and your car life. Just wanted to say thankyou as a long time amg owner . wkb, Tulsa

Hey Dan, I had to take a second look. Long time no see. I'm glad to see you're doing well.

Always a good day when Hoovie posts 👍🏻

Those head studds will have stretced on that blown bank. All the loose studs are on the exhaust side of the head, thermal expansion of the head when it overheated, stretched the studs, which gives you loose nuts.

Ball busting ball and chain, door checked nuts and last but not least, Loose nuts and bolts. Are we starting to see a theme here?😂😂😂😂😂

So excited, and a Phaeton too!!!

I like watching Hoovie because it makes me feel less lazy to do the small 100-300 repairs on my cars 😂 I just think it could be worse I could be working on a Ferrari 😅

Where is Euro Asian Bob??? Bob! Find Hoovie a Solara V6 Convertible. Needs a win!

"Fits like a glove"...and Harry laughing with his Testarossa fitting a boat engine in the front with room for bottles...🤣

That's definitely my favorite car of yours Tyler. Especially after the manual conversion.

The corroded gasket is most likely the cause for the loose head bolts

Take a very close look at the connecting rods on the Ferrari. I took one apart that ran OK, but had a bent rod.

The Mustang sounds so good!! 🏁

Keep bangin' Hoovie. 😎👊

That Phaeton in the back 😍😍😍

You are a very good KZfaqr. ❤

Hoovie! The smartest automotive channel on KZfaq!

At least the door didn't attack your leg!!!😂

That's compressed wood fibre moulding. Like Injection moulding plastic. Quite common for interior parts to make the substrate.

Call Matt Farrah. I think he's been working on a story about these guys.

Hoovie congrats on 1.5M subs!!!

The high kick is back boys. It must be a good day down there.

$175 an hour for those exotic cars 🚗 is probably cheap! I wish I had a Wizard here in Illinois to work on my 94 Z28!

Please keep this going i will keep watching and supporting you through youtube.

Sympathies regarding the surgery. You are a brave soldier and I just pray the painkillers are great (especially with a glass of red wine). Dearest Hoovie I hope you recover and “bounce” back. Love your content and actually care about your well being.

When the Wizard said, "I deffinatly need to raise my rates.", I was eating and nearly spit out my food. LOL

Saw the engine on the table at Omega a week ago, can't believe it was this bad!! Holy moly! Had never seen a V12 that far torn down before.

I’m here to contribute to the repairs. So sorry for your current troubles.

It’s almost like that chassis of the 599 was designed to have a V12 in the back lol.

Loved this video!

Thanks so much for uploading

Supercar dan has to be the most boring person to fill 10 minutes with....what a snore...no more of him

Hang in there man!

"Yeah, don't do that. You might fall and hit yourself on the ground again."-- Wizard gold right there. 19:09

Hoovie Friday!

6:10 Mr monopoly didn’t had a monocle, Mandela effect strikes again.

Mr. Monopoly never had a monocle 6:13. Mandela effect.

It's true. Those v12's have a good length compared to v8s. No wonder it's for distinct applications, with compromise likely. I absolutely love em', probably my favorite layout.

Will the hanger become the new Hoovie lair? Also, if you ever need a 4th for pickleball, send me a note... ;)

If you do it yourself…you’ll know it was done rite 😎 Wrench 🔧 Everyday 🤙🏾

Hovie had me in stitches ripping his stitches carrying the head.

Gosh im going to miss that mercy. That car is what got me into lambos. Thats what introduced me to the channel. Thats why i love orange cars. Ill miss your friend as well.

So, Tyler is living in the friend's hangar now...

Can’t believe Asian wifey was cheating on him, sucks biting the hand that feeds you!

I would be removing the oil sump and checking that the connecting rods had been properly torqued to specs. If they missed three or four head bolts/ nuts they could have missed a few rod bolts as well.

We love you Hoovie…..just making sure you know

Hoovie should get the GTO grill for the 599. Looks so much better IMO, especially on a dark car. The factory grill looks a little busy, especially for such a sleek car design. It looks like it should be on something angular and funky from the late 80s.

NEVER show a vendor you paid more for something.

"I need to get this out of your hair" (on "wizard"s beard, he has no hair on head). Good episode though, I really enjoyed it ALL the way from Brisbane, Australia.

Hoovies idea and mine of a Bargain, are in a completely different world !!!

Tyler has had some curves thrown at him lately. I hope the fan views help him get back on track.
