I am not from the US, and I saw some ads for Motorcraft 75W-140 in my country for a very cheap price. I checked R.A and it is so expensive ! The Lucas is only like 11 bucks. Which leads me to think the Motorcraft sold in my country must be fakes. So for you Americans, is this a normal price for...

I like that the 75W90 has higher viscosity at 100 C than the competition. I see most other 75W90 are in the 15cst range.

It happened today in Lumut Malaysia. It was training flight for a airshow coming next month. All crew of both helicopters did not survive. Helicopters were a HOM and Fennec. https://weirdkaya.com/2-helicopters-crash-into-each-other-lumut/

You are right, I just got an email and refund from rock auto, it seems they are closing out on the Anchor, but to me the Westar is worse. Its such a shame since Anchor got it almost right, while it looked ok, I can only guess how long it would last. Thank God the OEM mount is available. I think...

I have a1989 Toyota Soarer, which uses the same engines, suspension and transmission as the MA70 mk3 Supra. I noticed my transmission mount sagging a lot, a total of 14mm. The standard for a new mount should only sag 6 to 8mm. I checked the part number required for this mount 12371-70020 is...

"Don't sell half if it doubles, don't put in a stop loss or sell when it loses half of it's value. Just hold on, and if your FA is right you will be rich in 20 years or so." If that is the case, sell all if it doubles. Then enjoy the money.

Will not eat his proper lunch/dinner unless he is agitated with some kind of threat. One of the best threats i use is the large pet blower.

Look at a 5W30 that is not resource conserving.
