    Checked the cabin filter today...

    Hondas don't need new filters. Put them back in and run it.

    Ebay $5 cabin filter

    I use the $3 chinese CF and they work great. Takes 2-3 weeks to arrive, so plan ahead a little.

    Ethanol Shield for small engines?

    No additive will keep ethanol from clogging up a small engine. Just buy ethanol-free gas and use that exclusively. It pays for itself.

    Lawn Mower Tires

    Walmart dot com beats everybody on price and selection. They have free ship-to-store and the install is pretty cheap too.

    radar detectors..

    Speed limits around me are 70, 75, and 80, but I've owned my Valentine One since 1993. It's paid for itself many, many times over. Best thing about the V1 is it shows the direction of the radar source. (In front or behind you.) My main use for it is avoiding speed trap tickets: driving 40 in a...

    My Roku 3

    I cut my Dish about a year ago ($100/mo) I now have Roku w/ Hulu + Netflix ($24/mo). Saves $900 per year. I got an outdoor antenna from Walmart dot com for $35, it really reaches out there. I get about 40-50 channels free over the air. I ported my telephone number over from Verizon to my...

    Anyone used Auto Rx lately?

    I used original ARX way back and I liked it. Yesterday I put 2 bottles of ARX Plus in my 95 F150. I noticed the product is much more fluid now than it was before. I'm not sure what all has changed in the formula. I don't put many miles on this truck, so it will take a while to report results.

    Stop Changing Your Oil...

    Interesting article. http://www.edmunds.com/car-care/stop-cha...858&msite=w My 2012 Hyundai recommends 7500 mi OCI, but I change it at 5k just to be safe. I've started going to 5k on my older vehicles too. (But I can't imagine going 20,000 mi on the same fill in a Porsche.) It looks like big...

    $20 Walmart fuel injector cleaning service...

    I did a treatment like this a few years ago with Seafoam. I'm not sure what it cleans up but it sure helped my old clunkers. I've ran quite a bit of FP3000 through both of these trucks, so I was surprised at the difference this cleaning made. Anyway, if what you drive has a few miles on it and...

    $20 Walmart fuel injector cleaning service...

    Last week I was desperate for an oil change and I couldn't do it myself, so I had it done while I was at WM. The guy who took down my info talked me into getting the fuel injector service while I was there. Since it was only $20, I agreed. My truck (95 F150) runs much better after the...

    Suing Hyundai Over Elantra MPG

    I bought my 2012 Elantra mainly for the 40mpg on the highway. I almost always got 40 on the highway and using a few hypermiler techniques, I could get the reading to 50mpg. All of that changed when I had to change out my OEM tires. I was sitting still at a red light when one of my Continental...
