Facebook will censor you though . Jerks ..

It would be a shame if Fred's truck caught on fire .

We haven't washed laundry in hot water for decades . There's a savings right there .

Back when I was doing it myself , I would wait until it got down to one drop every 15 seconds or thereabouts .

It's been nearly four years and I still wake up early . I think I have some kind of power company PTSD . When the weather get's bad I get antsy , waiting on the phone to ring .

In the South , weather and temperatures have little influence on building codes .

Which British company is that ?

My Nissan Titan has a 5K mile oil change reminder that shows up on the dash . No OLM or alternate maintenance schedule . 5K miles and that's it . And 0w-20 synthetic oil . They keep it simple .

I remember this same thing being said about their gun sales . Same brand , model number , etc. but built to a lower quality . Total nonsense . I ordered a rifle through Walmart two different times . Both of them came from the same distributor that the local gunshops use . Imagine that ...

I've done both . No noticeable effect on my engine either way . But , this is BITOG ...

If you are are competent with a multi-meter , you need to start doing voltage checks starting at the breaker .

My latest experience jumping off brother in law's truck . My truck was not running . Connected the cables . Tried his truck and it barely bumped . Told my wife to crank my truck . Tried his again and it cranked . Heavy duty cables . I've seen this many times .

Somehow I've managed to own and maintain vehicles for nearly 50 years without using anything more exotic than Mobil 1 and very little of that even . NEVER an oil related issue . YMMV .

Huh ?

On an Ohmmeter , Zero is a dead short .
