    Why does Techron advise to limit the number of applications during motor oil change intervals ?

    So butylene oxide-based PEA is good and propylene oxide-based PEA is bad? Did Chevron pay for that study? I assume they are using the butylene oxide-based PEA if they wrote the check.

    Installing pushrods in their non-original lifter. Jeep 4.0

    If your back can handle it or you have help, attach the intake/exhaust on the bench and put it all on together.

    Installing pushrods in their non-original lifter. Jeep 4.0

    They are all the same no issue. You should try keep the lifters in the same hole but even mixing those would be ok.

    What's the deal with gas generators?.,,

    These statements are not accurate. One cubic foot of propane is 2,516 BTUs; one cubic foot of natural gas is 1,030 BTUs. Since this thread is about generators, take a typical 3 fuel non inverter generator. Propane will provide about 90% of the rated gasoline power where natural gas is only...

    Hard to believe you found a L with those miles. Everyone I see has 300k+.

    Briggs & Straton OHV Plastic Engine No Compression

    OP I think you misunderstood. Gas will leak past the piston for certain. Put the gas in the combustion chamber of the head after the plug is back in. It will leak out of the intake or exhaust port just like all of your compression is doing. Clean the valves in a drill with brake cleaner and a...

    Looks like the seam has totally unrolled. Put on some thick gloves and try to twist it apart.

    The oxidation level is normal for the ester in that Redline oil. It is that high of the bottle.

    01 Taurus AX4N fluid refill capacity

    She is a college kid and that car is a real beater so who knows. Claimed she didn't hit anything and said maybe it was from the original owner.

    01 Taurus AX4N fluid refill capacity

    I would be nervous with a drain plug on the bottom of that pan. I just swapped the pump on my niece's 04 Taurus and the pan had scratches all over from bottoming out at some point. I just looked that LG green up. It says to mix that with Dex/Merc to make Mercon V. Why not just get Mercon V?

    Looking for some input on a small Inverter - generator

    A 2000 will cover what you listed. We didn't have power for 4 weeks last year from that Helene hurricane. Ran a 2000w inverter for a small window AC, TV, router, modem and fridge or freezer. Had to unplug the fridge to run the freezer 2 hours each day. We did use the big genny at night for...
