That filter wrench is a beast. It's my "last resort" filter wrench. If all else fails you can put it on a impact gun. You'll twist the block out of the motor mounts before that thing slips!

It had a much sweeter smell before they took the Benzene out of it.

Agree 100%. Nothing comes close to Bore Tech.

I can understand the customer being a bit upset. But with all that is going on in this world, this is what we tie up our courts with? You would think a simple refund, or some type of compensation, (free tickets), would solve this. Maybe it's just me. The older I get the less I want to fight...

I don't have any details on that photograph. But on a heavy locomotive it doesn't take much to damage the track once wheel slip happens. Especially if the train is stationary when it occurs. The "contact patch" of a steel drive wheel on a steel rail is all but non existent.... It's just a...

It's not only here, but if you look around the "interweb", Fram bashing seems to be as commonplace as chocolate sauce on Vanilla ice cream. Are there better filters out there? No doubt. But it does get a little old listening to all of the regurgitated nonsense of how terrible they are. There...

What is it you're finding so difficult to believe? They're simple numbers. If you doubt them, then check them yourself.... It takes 10 seconds. Here ya' go, take your pick...

This one is a little on the pricey side. But you could put an entire AR upper in the thing. (The basket is 35-3/4" long)...

I'm seriously thinking of investing in one of these for gun cleaning only. I already have the Harbor Freight el cheapo model, and it does a pretty good job. But it's too small, all plastic, and has no drain. This model is all Stainless Steel. Much larger. and has heat, (300 watts). It also has...

This stuff works really well on filthy AR bolt carrier groups. The biggest thing is much like using any penetrant, don't be in a hurry. Give it time to work. https://slip2000.com/products/carbon-killer?srsltid=AfmBOoponkwopKRZtFmak8CfFFYBV0xeA3F489tHXB1-Hn4fFQzJOWKJ

My vote is for the Purolator..... Beautiful paint job! But they should have charged a buck or two more, and given it a clear coat on top of the blue metal flake. (y)

The upkeep on those is too expensive.... As well as the unit cost.

Yet another reason the Diesel electric locomotives are employed to help get the Big Boy started rolling, is to help prevent wheel slip. In a locomotive that weighs 1.2 million pounds, even a slight amount of wheel slip can destroy the track almost instantaneously. Like most all locomotives, the...

The reason they use the Diesel electric locomotive to assist in starting out, is because large, heavy steam locomotives like the "Big Boy" are notoriously hard on the tracks when getting the train initially moving. (It weighs close to 1.2 million pounds). The "Big Boy's" massive uneven...

There is nothing non factual with what I posted.
