Sorry for your loss. You still have memories, so hold onto those real tight.

Long story but I'll post anyway. The nature for the piston soak wasn't a ring issue so this is probably off-topic. 1987 Camaro (see signature). Part throttle ping. GM Top Engine Cleaner. No, it did not. The details are fuzzy; this was decades ago. The above was done at the dealership. Must...

The Highlander has an S-Flow setting: This function automatically controls the air conditioning airflow so that priority is given to the front seats. When the front passenger seat is not occupied, airflow may switch to only the driver’s seat. Unnecessary air conditioning is suppressed...
