Well, I dropped the oil after about 5 hours and I couldn't believe how goofy it looked already. It honestly looked like the chaincase oil in my snowmobile that I swap every 1,000 miles or so. It was very gray and almost had a milky look to it. I'm glad I dropped it when I did. I'll probably swap...

I don't know if he's been mentioned after 8 pages, but Barry Bailey from ARS could really get down playing that Les Paul. Also, Christopher Cross wasn't too shabby when he got that strat in his hands.

I'm shocked no one has mentioned him yet, but Ralph Macchio in Crossroads was pretty solid, especially when he played his classical music..

When EVH says Steve Lukather is the man, I think that's saying something. I would also like to add Jeff Beck to the list. The guy created sounds that no one has heard up until that point.

Steve Lukather is another guy that comes to mind, but he was more 80's.

So, the names already listed could be a top ten based on talent, influence and success all based on objective vs subjective. If you asked 10 different professionals from the music industry that had their finger on the pulse from that era, I'm betting you'd get very little overlap on names.

The op is just getting people riled up. I think the names that have been thrown out definitely fall into the top 100, if not top 50 of greatest guitarists from the 60-70's era. If there's some hobo that used to play in the Cass Corridor of Detriot that no one has ever heard of other than the...

Hold on, does Ritchie Blackmore move the needle? I believe he and Jimmy Page started the metal movement and created a sound that no one has heard before. I'll throw Billy Gibbons in that mix for a top ten guy from that era. If you puke on that admission I know you're not serious about the question.

I'd also say Ritchie Blackmore was pretty influential.

I'd have to throw Albert Lee in the mix. An English fellow who got into country music and happened to be buddies with the Everly Brothers.

I grabbed a bottle of Supertech 10w30 since mine didn't come with any oil. I figured that would be good enough to run in this machine for the little use it'll get

Actually, I stand corrected, it's a rear drive self-propelled. I thought it was front wheel because of the large plastic cover on the front and it's actually really slow compared to other self-propelled mowers that I've owned. It took me 40 mins to mow the front of my lot that's approximately...

So, I was out mowing last weekend and noticed that the deck on my Simplicity started to scalp the yard. I shut it down and hopped off to inspect and noticed the bracket that holds the threaded rod to raise/lower the deck broke a weld. I rigged it up and was able to lift the deck enough in...

I remember asking about euro spec Valvoline Restore and Protect in another thread and someone said I can wish in one hand and crap in the other and see what fills up first. Looks like I'm not a complete dumbass. I should show my wife that I was actually right for once, lol.

I'm due for a service on my Ram truck in a bit and from all the research I've done Pennzoil Platinum seems tough to beat. It's reasonably priced and readily available, which I like. It appears to come in 75w-90 and 75w-140.
