I'm looking for some advice on oil for a 2016 Explorer with the 2.3 Ecoboost. The car has 13,000 miles which we drive about 5,000 miles / year. The warranty is over with so i'm looking for something that i can do a 5,000 miles / 1 year oil change on. I'm leaning towards Kirkland 5w30 since I can...

Looking for some advice on a new 2016 WRX. It seems that the 15-16 WRX has a new engine with an oil filter that is not used on the STI or other Subaru (Blue ones). I can't find any info on this filter part #15208AA170. This is the filter that came from the factory. So should I keep running these...

I have travel benefits on Delta so I usually ride on them. However when I take a family vacation I usually pay the full fare on Southwest. This is just because I have younger kids and traveling as a family it's much easier. The bag charge add up in hurry. Most of the time when I non-rev on...

My car is a 2002 Civic EX. I bought it brand new wih 200 miles on it. Started with 3K OCI for the first 40K miles and has been doing 6-7K on Syn oil since. I'm thinking pushing it to 10K / 1 year. OCI with Mobil1 Extended or PP and a Fram Ultra filter. The car is 50/50 city and highway, and has...

I don't plan on it. He has 2 personal trucks. This one doesn't get driven as much as the other one. He normally does the oil change at the dealer, but since it was long overdue I decided to change it while he was in town visiting me.

I pulled this off of my dad's 00 GMC Sierra V8. It had 3,000 miles and on for 1 year. Short trips, very little highway use. Nothing wrong with this filter, or any previous E-core that has been used. This was a dealer installed filter.

Take a look at Pinnacle flight 3701..... 2 guys wanted to joined the "410" club. They stalled the RJ at 41,000 ft, flamed out both engine.

Originally Posted By: fdcg27 Don't most aircraft give a noticeable buffet at stall? I can only speak for the CRJ and most jets, but, we will get the shaker or pusher before a full stall. Maybe next time in the sim, i'll turn off the stall protection and try to get to a full stall and see what...

Originally Posted By: The_Eric I I have also seen remarks that guns can be ruined by over cleaning, sometimes making references to military firearms being worn out due to too stringent of cleanliness standards or having nothing else better to do during idle time. Again I ask, what is the actual...

We don't deal with time zone change like 757guy but, What we get is this: Day 1 (6 am start)... 5-6 flights reduce rest of 8 hrs (which turns to 5 hrs of sleep) Day 2 (6 am start)... 5-6 flights 17 hrs layover Day 3.... Start late on the 3 day... So we end up sleeping in this day and start...
