up above I commented that I got the 4 I ordered without issue. I then read about the coupon that brought it down to 12 and change. So I ordered two more... Out for delivery this afternoon. No delivery. Refund issued by 8:00 pm. I am assuming another leak issue. That means 2/3 of the orders I...

got my 4 delivered today. all packed in one box that I would have sworn was too small for 4 jugs. All 4 were there. .no packing material at all. one minor leakage (more like seepage ). . 3 were SP.. one was SQ. The SPs were all bottled April 4th 2025. I can't tell when the SQ was bottled as the...

the 0w20 is back down to $14.32 and in stock again. https://www.amazon.com/Quaker-State-Synthetic-5-Quart-Single/dp/B00RRI3XBG

That is a possibility for sure.

As I suspected, it's now labeled as "Undeliverable" and I'm being refunded. The interesting thing is all the tracking showed it moving around the system. Lame

I ordered three. Amazon initially claimed overnight delivery and arriving between 7am-11am lat Friday. Then it moved to 3:00 PM friday. Now it's moved to "Delivery date currently unavailable" but still shows that the package moving around . Very odd. Probably won't ever see it.

North Wales supposedly has 0w20 and 0W30. I don't fully trust their inventory system so who knows what they really have. I was in the North Wales story on the weekend disposing of some used oil and I only saw a few bottles of conventional. Maybe they have the synthetic in the back somewhere.

BOGO was showing up for me yesterday but now doesn't seem to be valid unfortunately. I got distracted and didn't put in an order. ugh

Those are usually used to remove tires from bikes. you hook the spoon shaped edge under the tire lip, lever it up over the rim in one spot. The slotted end is then hooked to a spoke to hold it in place. usually they come several to a pack so you can then use a few in key spots around a wheel...

greetings from another person still driving an s70. I too am in search of tires. My s70 is a base model and came with 15 inch wheels. I have noticed that the selection of 15 in tires isn't what it was pre-covid. I also realize fewer cars use 15 inch wheels so there is less demand for them. I...

I have that tool and it's my favorite ratchet. I picked it up because it was on sale at a price that was quite reasonable ($<30). I wasn't even looking for a flex head ratchet but because of the price, I decided to pick one up. I didn't even fully appreciate what I was buying at the time...

"Question...has any one experienced this problem using TOYOTA drain plug gaskets?" Yes! (Avalon, Sienna, Rav4, etc) I change the only on various friends of mine. Mazda, Honda, Subaru, Volvo, Nissan and Toyota (I own 3 toyotas). The only drain plugs I have had this happen with is the toyotas...

I recently picked up this from Harbor Freight https://www.harborfreight.com/master-oil-funnel-filling-kit-56892.html Has a lot of adapters for different cars. Pricey if you are looking for just one or two cars to use it on but I change the oil on a lot of friends cars so I'll use about 1/2 the...

I had to order a set of manual shifter cables for my 1999 volvo s70. I found a complete shifter and cables from a salvage yard in Latvia. price was $30 for part and $100 for shipping. WAY cheaper than similar parts found in US/Canada (when I could find them. they are getting hard to find.)...

I am assuming this was for a lawn mowing business? That would have been a significant purchase for a 13 year old in 1984. Lawn Boys weren't the cheapest option out there. I have used them a few times and I liked their quirkiness.
