    Oil gelling

    Trolling or ex-wife added something. Unless your fleet or JiffyLube or Carnival Cruise lines I cannot see buying oil by the drum. The new car you buy may require an oil different spec'ed than your drum and then what?

    Swedish Space Program

    Apparently in the late 1960s or 1970s Sweden was considering starting a space program. One of the proponents of the program said they were looking to send a rocket ship to the sun. A person said "you can't do that, the rocket ship will burn up". The response was "we know that, so that's why...

    Mouse Blocker Pro. Puts out high freq sounds but stops when car is started. We used them in NY vehicles. We had the insurance company pay for mouse damage.

    What Constitutes a true BITOGer

    Everyone single does or those married with a his & hers closet. If you are sharing a closet with the wife, doubt there will be any oil allowed in it

    Early failure of Amazon Basics AA alkaline battery

    I am in a similar situation with churches and wireless mics. I love how some people pull nearly dead batteries out of wireless mics and leave them near soundboard. Toss them. No one wants nearly dead batteries. We have gone to Shure digital wireless mics. All metal but expensive. I...

    2015 Jeep GC Turbo Diesel HELP!

    Assume the dealer drained the fuel/water separator. What did he find? If no drain then assume dealer drained fuel filter in a jar to look at it. Either way you need to know diagnostic work the dealer has performed and what was found. Not saying either way ripoff or not, but if you have a...

    2015 Jeep GC Turbo Diesel HELP!

    They probably drained the fuel filter and found dirt and/or water. So the question is did any bad fuel get past the fuel filter to the HPFP. The next question is what HPFP is in the Jeep? If it's a CP4 and dirt or maybe even water got to the CP4 then it can start to grenade itself as it's...

    Pulling PS pulley using a puller

    Thanks for the work looking at the photos. So the anchor one is windless. It has no light bar at the bottom because it's a momentary up or down. The bilge one is probably forward bilge (pump) as the aft one is automatic. There could be several blank ones for "future use"
