ChrisFix is an excellent channel for home auto repair. He has a format that both explains concepts with the appropriate level of depth and encourages the viewer to learn by doing. Any tutorial maker could learn a lot from his style. His recent videos (last 2 years) have really taken the camera work and narration to a new level of quality, too. The contrast with other auto videos with poor framing and lighting is stark. https://www.youtube.com/user/PaintballOO7 https://www.youtube.com/user/PaintballOO7 Bonus: Around the Corner (1937) is probably the greatest educational video ever made. The method of defining the problem and then building and iterating on the solution is extremely effective. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yYAw79386WI https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yYAw79386WI

In that vein, fordtechmakuloco is wonderful for pretty much anything Ford, up to and including some pretty tricky stuff in the middle of the engine. I'm sure there are similar channels for other make/models, but that's a great one for Ford.

When it comes to car channels you also need to mention Project Binky from Bad Obsession Motorsport. They are building a 4 wheel drive classic mini cooper and it's both high quality metalwork and high quality very dry British humour. If you are even remotely into project cars (or British humour) then this is a must watch!

  If you like Binky, I highly highly recommend Dogged Fabrication[0] and The Skid Factory[1], both of which are Australian car builders with insane amounts of skill, building some very interesting stuff.

(the 4th and latest build, worth looking at their older ones too)
