I used to have a stash but I stopped adding to it. Now Im down to the last few bottles. I don't think I will stockpile oil anymore. Keeping 2-3 OCIs worth is plenty for me.

For some reason I can't post a link to my own thread. Just search ecogard x1a glue failure and see for yourselves.

Hard pass for me. The glue is awful and will not hold up. I had one of these filters fail after 6000 km.

You can remove and install scooter tires with nothing more than 3 flat head screwdrivers and a ratcheting tie down strap. They don't normally get balanced. There is usually a marking on the new tires so you can line it up to the valve stem and that's about it.

No debris left behind that I could see.

So my new to me 09 Hyundai Tucson was blowing very weak from the vents at all speeds. I looked up the cabin air filter location and here is what I pulled out... I put in a Fram fresh breeze from walmart and now it really moves air. Also smells much much cleaner.

Rockauto sure has some surprises. I ordered the cheapest quick struts under the Ultra Power brand and what I got in the mail was Raybestos. I have yet to install them.

SSD is the number 1 thing I would upgrade. Bumping the ram to 8gb would be number 2. Graphics I would upgrade only if you want to watch HD videos or play some slightly older games.

That additive pack is interesting. Coffee, chocolate, and vanilla. Post some urine tests.

I recently had a few newer grand caravans in my possession and got to put a few miles on each vehicle. 3x 2017s and 3x 2018s. The 3.6 is a great engine for these vans but the transmission is still suspicious. Every single one of them had some weird moments of hesitation to downshift. Rough...

I tried a basic Ecogard filter and was disappointed. The glue on the endcaps was inadequate and there were gaps in the filter media as a result. I don't reccomend them.

Run flats make sense if you have a newer vehicle that doesn't include a spare.

Use it with confidence. It's overkill for garden equipment.

Filter looks great. Put it back in for another 30000k oci.

It's ok. Could do away with the spam from the app.
