I was going to post this thanks dude!

Thank you for the expalnation as a non native english speaker.

@@Redkit34 omg I know right? I work in IT and it’s crazy how many weird sayings are used. So many of my friends immigrated after college so it’s fun to try to figure out the original context. I have to Google a lot myself.

You are bringing back long forgotten memories of sweat scrapers from my childhood.

Fascinating, I was not aware of that. Thanks for sharing!

The phrase is "rode hard and put away wet", as opposed to "run/ran hard". You don't run a horse, you ride a horse.

@@CharlesVanNoland Thus my theory they're really talking about one-night stands that are more like 10-minute stands.

Came to the comments to say this but you beat me to it.

@@CharlesVanNoland May I say yes you DO in some context Run a horse: canter ring, hot walker, etc. You also can use a different set of verbiage for when they are hooked up on a harness for ground “driving” and for a buggy. Also we use a phrase to be purposefully used in different contexts and some times alluding to another for a double ententes. Something completely novel to the viewers of this channel 🤔😍 valoutes in a water pump anyone

same. love it.

The 2.3 turbos get a lot of hate from lack of maintenance mostly, but I do agree with their down falls the timing chains suck and the oil control rings always clog like this one shown in the video but when maintained over regularly they are super fun cars in my opinion

Absolutely gutless though. Makes the same as a Honda or Toyota 1.8

155 horsepower in my 09 Mazda 3 at 185k and it still runs great considering it was abused for the 150k before I bought it. Could definitely get better Mileage though. In my opinion they are fine considering they are pretty reliable.@@loganamurray64

Not the first time he's brought that out. I always get a little chuckle out of it.

He needs to get that timing chain off Meow.... TFF 😂🤣

I love this POS/great engine 😭

@@Sprier 98k miles on my mzr atm and I'm starting to sweat cause I've been running around 370whp for 65k of those. Lmao

@@Plibt_ you turbo'd a 2.5?

I look forward to it in every video!

@@handbanana6843 Yeah and when he does the head bolts too without an impact.

AND locking casters

oh god i know... everytime i see him trying to catch spills with that pan offset of the base i always wince lol

You DO own drain pans right??😂

Hardcore mechanic fare. I like to watch. Something about bruised knuckles as a kid. Fascinating world though. The engineering is amazing to me.

@@photopicker I agree.

Kind of rare to find a wrecker 928 to make a vid with, send hm yours so we can all watch!.

@@barryaiello3127 That's really not true, beater 928's are around. Often they turn up on Craigslist. Word of warning: You can spend some serious coin on an old 928!

@@Flies2FLL They didn't exactly sell like hotcakes back then, they were not cheap to buy, maintain or insure.

John Lees - LOL! Same here. I thought it was just mine where the center drain bolt wouldn't come out. I still have my Mazda 3 with the non-turbo version of this engine. Just because of the cartridge filter, and stupid under car plastic "shield" (that used to be on my car) a simple oil change is something i hate doing.

I kind of like it because it’s really easy access but not being able to stab it with a screwdriver to twist it off is a bitch.

Mine too

🤣🤣

I've never seen a pry bar with a brushless motor. Who makes them?

@@johncoops6897 some chinese company just had a bunch of designers literally fight over the drawing board lmao

I imagine he doesn't do much of anything with any of the old iron legends like that Slant Six, or my 4.9 I6, or a Chevy guy's 250/292. Or any of the old school iron V8s big and small alike. They're too skookum and too cheap to buy parts for. Never end up on his dissection table unless a viewer just straight up donates one for free. Eric's running a business selling useable parts from these things, after all, and if he tears an engine down to get $250-$350 worth of parts what sense does it make for him to buy one when he can tear another engine down and add another zero to the profit margin? I imagine he'd say the same things most people say about the Slant Six: Skookum, bit of a dog in factory trim particularly during smog years, but tons of modding potential. As a side note I would be beside myself if one of those legends of yesteryear ended up on his table. Would make an excellent comparison video, showing how overbuilt they are compared to modern engines, showing how certain things have changed over the years, that sorta stuff. A 350SBC and another blown LS would be perfect for a side by side teardown given the LS is the replacement for the venerable smallblock, but the general themes apply cross brands. I'd also absolutely love to see him tear something down that's truly ancient, like an 8BA flathead or a Fireball Straight 8. But again he's not gonna buy one of those engines if he can't turn a profit selling the parts and I doubt any viewers have one just lying around they'd be willing to donate/lend for a video.

@@TestECull Thanks for the comment. I think your right and I'm not sure he has much experience with the old school iron. ( I owned three Valiants back in the day. (The push button transmission wasn't the most stellar.)) I remember being told the only thing that wore out on the Slant Six was the plastic bevel gear on the distributor rotor shaft, but that was by design. The internal brass gear was much harder to replace than the rotor shaft.)

@@JayKayKay7 ye the Ford 300/4.9 ain't much different, only they didn't use a plastic gear on the dizzy either. Half million mile overhaul intervals are common and it's rare that one wears out before the vehicle around it does.

""I am not a mechanic by any means..." Yup, clueless and spewing nonsense. Chain will outlast any belt.

Or if you have a stand with a square base rather than a T base, it makes it easy to stand on the base for dealing with those tight bolts. I also swapped out the casters for some braked ones from a hardware store.

I agree i follow a guy called project farm he has done comparisons with small motors burning them up with regular oil and synthetic, the type of synthetic also makes a difference with lubricity for example

@@lutomson3496 im talking after 200kms. Would be interesting ti see a real world example of the difference here on youtube. I have personal experience with the difference or course, but not a full teardown like this

I've got 338.000 miles on my 94 Trans Am. LT1 ENGINE. Only used Castrol oil in it since new. 3000 mile oil changes. Runs and sounds like new. Even timing chain is original. Uses no oil between changes either.

The whole video has NSFW moments.

Oh I’d love to find one. Someday soon I hope!

Luck you.My 2007 CX7 166000km needed 2 injectors ,timing chain and carbon cleaning on all valves.Great suv when it ran but a money pit.

I have an 08 with 120k on it with original everything. It mostly sits in the garage and I thought about selling it because that's all it does anymore. How much did you get out of your 09?

That timing chain definitely needed doing, even if it didnt seem like it
