    What is the purpose of this Lexus oil pan bolt?

    The only thing I can think of is vibration related? The Lexus FSM states to replace Bolt "A" (A650E 1998-2005) pan bolt whenever the pan is removed: All 19 bolts are identical, except for Bolt "A" which has a Nypatch, so I can understand why this is a one shot deal. However, what is curious...

    Rocker Arm Assembly installation

    This is the MDX, yeah? This is from a blown up J35 (~18 minutes into the video). I would swap the rockers/shafts from the broken shaft holder (girdle?) to the replacement shaft holder, keeping the parts in order of removal. Back off the valve adjustment nuts/screws, then bolt the girdle...

    Stunned by Mecum Auction

    I hope it's a real one. The GTO grill/Endura bumper/hood was offered as an option on the '71-'72 Lemans - RPO T41.

    1994 Toyota Camry 2.2 - oil pressure guage - is there an adapter?

    I went through this with the Legend, wanting to add a gauge and retain the warning light. Essentially, I needed to go from 1/8 BTPT (oil filter housing (M) to 1/8 NPT (F), and vice-versa. The two places that had adapters where Stewart-Warner and ISS Pro. 27-TPI vs. 28-TPI, it's awfully hard...

    Multiple DTCs on Camaro v6 2011; need help please

    This idiot's two cents....all I see are two DTC's: Intermittent misfire and an intake camshaft position sensor issue, that also appears to be intermittent. Might be the two are related?

    Thread for photos that 100% do not violate any Terms Of Service, not political, not lewd, no gas price pics etc.

    Appears to be a pre-1985 SBC cylinder head - lack of the 7th exhaust manifold bolt hole. Appears to have exhaust valve rotators = 5.0L.

    Things we see driving around - original content (pictures you snapped)

    Vintage Aircraft, aircraft restorations. Adjacent to Stockton Metro airport. Kind of difficult to see what they're working on because of the barbed wire - you know, it's Stockton. A few years ago, they had what looked like a completed PV-1 Ventura. This one appears similar, but without the...

    What are you working on today?

    Reboxed, Beck-Arnley cabin filters for the above. Filters manufactured by BNX TruFilter in Houston, TX. Hopefully these will fit the filter frame. ~$20/ea. Yeah, I forgot about the 5% discount. I need to up my game, especially when it covers part of the shipping costs.

    What are you working on today?

    Yesterday, I finally had a bit of time to tend to the Camaro. Last week when I backed it out of the garage, I noticed a substantial fuel leak located under the bell housing. There's only a few places in the back of the engine where fuel could be leaking from; pressure regulator, fuel rail...
