    Need opinions- worth it to pay $1200 for new AC compressor on 19 y.o. SAAB?

    Right! It depends on the condition of the rest of the car… If it is otherwise solid, I would not have a problem putting in the new compressor. Question is: how much debris is there in the rest of the system… Also, how old is your son, and where do you live?

    Interflug IL-62 Lands In Field

    Landing on an uneven surface of grass is very different than landing on a runway. With the editing going back-and-forth between the airplane and the crowd, it's hard to actually do a good analysis; but it's obvious that they just touched that little ridge after they cleared the trees and that...

    200K Transition Mobil 1 To Amsoil

    Long time Amsoil user here. In your position I'd sample the Amsoil at 10k (leaving it in), and extend further based on UOA. Be certain to use a filter rated for 20k though...unless checking as suggested above.

    '96 Pathfinder - 16.9 mpg - Pathetic!

    Many have closed louvers from the factory, so aren't actually doing any filtering. At least check them prior to install....

    New 2026 F150 5.0 V8 engine oil and filter recommendations?

    Enjoy your new truck. In my '13 I ran 0w40 and it was a MUCH smoother engine than when running either a -20 or -30.

    This, along with dealer paperwork showing your trade, and they'll go away. Dealer messed up, or new owner never registered...similar thing happened to me a few years ago.

    Changing Viscosity for Summer and for Cleaning?

    Dude - as clean as you're making it with your disassembly plan (nice job BTW!), there's absolutely no need for VRP, especially if you're going to run Amsoil......it's already clean! Those small corner areas won't cause an issue and will clean up with time. In your place, I'd just run the 5w50...

    2025-2026 Toyota Camry Hybrid

    Had one as a rental recently. As noted, plenty of power and very solid. Didn't drive any twisties, but in average driving it felt competent. Got 45 mpg in mixed driving with a lot of city. Average clumbed to 54 overall during a 175 mile highway trip. (Did not reset) Really dislike CVTs in...

    Why do people strongly opine about topics they know nothing about?

    This is definitely a factor. Cue: Flat earthers Chemtrail conspiricists And other crazies...for some reason, people latch on to a certain (unproven and idiotic) concepts and cannot be swayed. It's a corollary to what OP said - opinionated and unmovable in their opinion. Summation: people...

    There has to be a better way to clean auto glass than using microfiber towels that leave lint

    Perhaps newspaper inks have been cheapened since I last used them! Paper towels FTW

    Mobil 1 threatened by SuperTech!

    Yes...notice also that the SuperTech is only SN while the Mobil 1 is SQ. Just funny that SuperTech was $1 less and XOM dropped their price to beat SuperTech by $1

    Windex. Either paper towels or black & white newspaper.
