Mike the Backyard Mechanic works on his cars in his garage which is heavily modified and air conditioned. Whether you just change your oil, or pull the engine, you'll be entertained by Mike's humorous takes on automotive systems, along with the mistakes he makes (and shares) and possibly learn a thing or two. Well... you'll learn what not to do.

This channel was "Screw This!" for a while. A good example of a mistake Mike has made.
