Insurance has been one thing that's been hard to find. Even general liability. I don't offer just oil changes. State certified and registered in automotive brakes and braking systems and then recreational trailer repair. The minute i mention i touch brakes or suspension its a no go. And I'm not...

Yes but i also need to protect myself ya know. Nowadays everyone wants something for nothing.

I guess its the least of my concerns but if a vehicle does have any sort of metal or material from wear wont this tend to settle into the pan and come out during oil pan changes? If extracting will the material not just get sucked back up into the engine potentially causing problems?

You got me. Beep Boop Bop

$113.60. This includes taxes but no travel fee. I do apply a travel fee for jobs over 15 miles away. I am doing oil pan drains at this time. 8/10 times filter will be bottom side on vehicles I'm working on. There really is no telling what brand vehicles ill end up working on in my area so its...

At a jobber level? And with good scientific backing? Not that i have seen. I'm trying to make a good educated decision here.

Account's at all 3 and NAPA. On my personal stuff i have used supertech oil with no problems. Will they be going away as well? Should i just load up?

I've been using the Carquest premium recently and build quality seemed nice i just hadn't cut one open myself really to look. Looking through and seeing some posts from Brendan C cutting them open they look solid. I've read through and there not necessarily one tried and true winner. Just...

Hey everyone — I’m in West Michigan. I do my own maintenance and I also run a small mobile service (Anaya Motorsports). I just found out First Brands went out of business, so I’m assuming that means no more Super Tech filters and no more Fram options (at least as we knew them). I’ve had good...
