Troybilt 27 ton splitter with Honda gcv160 Out- quaker state ultimate durability 5w30 In- same She runs great!

I gut the cats on chainsaws. They need to be fattened up afterwards, but they run so much better!

This stuff is new to me. It has all the good LXE chemistry of their top products. This stuff claims to clean and condition seals, burn clean and other good stuff. I ordered some to try. Anyone tried this stuff? Lubegard automotive fluids are highly regarded on this site and Im willing to try it.

Didnt use a 6pt socket. The good is this is after it was buggered up, it led me to discover the wheel cylinder was on its way out anyway.

Actually, all bleeder caps were in place. The threaded area below the nut is where the rust built up. Anyway, they are good now.

Hi all, A brake flush on my sons 01 Ram led me to a little issue. Frozen bleeder pulled the threads out of wheel cylinder. I bought 2 cylinders (Bendix) and went to work. One of the old cylinders was full of rusty [censored] that looked like a rust milkshake. Removing the seals revealed they...

I installed the PCV valve today. Went ahead and replaced the throttle position sensor also. Wow! The truck ran good but after the tps, it is night and day! Im covering every inch of the truck getting it ready for my son. He's helping and we are having fun together!

We just ran into this ramp issue at my house. The steel ramps I have used for years were at too steep an angle for my sons new Chevy Cruz. We picked up a set of Rhino Ramps which have a less steep angle. They are great! I have also used them on the new Sonic and fit very well. I will keep the...

Awesome!! That's what I was looking for....a diagram. I will try to look it up later on.

I have the same one. It gets used quite a bit. Boat oil changes, atf canges on 4 vehicles. Just used it yesterday on snowblower and log splitter oil changes. So easy to use!

Hello all, I am coming up to the 50k mileage and planning on a pan drop and fill. I have a remote spin•on filter kit which I want to install. I have tried to find out which line I should attach it to. I wish I could find a diagram but havent been able. Have any of you done this on a Silverado? I...
