Bad Wrench Automotive

This channel is about giving you the knowledge on automotive repair. Automotive repair has given me so much frustration and also rewards. Two people have been my mentors but after 30 years it is time for me to pass on my knowledge. I am working to create my best work so far for this new season. I am looking to keep pushing forward for new content and projects. This channel has had a few stars and I am not one of them. We have seen a few characters come and go. From the start I knew the cast would change and that each step has given us a chance to learn new things. We say Goodbye to: Crimson Hemi (08 Dodge Ram), The Black Peal (15 KIA Soul Plus), Red Sled (02 Saturn SC1 5 speed), The 2wd TANK (02 GMC Sierra), Silver Swine (04 Toyota Tacoma) & Malibu Steel (12 Chevy Malibu

Our Craft Our Passion!

Current Cast:
13 Chevy Silverado (Big Red)
04 Pontiac GTO (LS Goat)
01 GMC Jimmy SLT (Crimson Vortec)
20 KIA Soul EX (Champagne Bubbles)

What Livestream time works for everyone?

Today we remember the men and women who paid the ultimate price so we could enjoy the freedoms we often take for granted.

Freedom isn’t free — and because of their sacrifice, we get to live our lives, build our dreams, work on our projects, and spend time with family and friends.

Whether you're turning wrenches in the garage, cruising back roads, or firing up an old project car today, take a moment to remember the heroes who never made it home.

From Bad Wrench Automotive — thank you to all who served, and especially to those who gave everything for this country. 🇺🇸

Stay safe this Memorial Day.
It’s just nuts and bolts, and I’ll see you on the next one.

Happy Mother’s Day to all the moms out there keeping everything running — at home, at work, and sometimes even under the hood.

A lot of us learned our work ethic, patience, and problem-solving from our moms long before we ever picked up a wrench. Whether it was rides to school, helping hold the flashlight, supporting late-night projects, or just always being there when life broke down… moms are the original roadside assistance.

Today isn’t about horsepower or tools — it’s about appreciating the people who keep the engine of the family running every single day.

From all of us at Bad Wrench Automotive:
Thank you, moms, for everything you do. ❤️🔧

Drop a comment and tell us about a mom, grandma, wife, or mother figure that helped shape your life.

This is the new project for the channel an 04 Pontiac GTO 5.7 LS1 6 speed manual. I bought car but it was running rough and idling is clearing showing problems. The questions is do we try to tune it up and then Dyno for baseline or just rebuild it without getting the info?
