As a kid in the 70's I remember overhearing a neighbor talking on the street corner with my dad and telling him how he used STP in the winter and had to sit the can on the exhaust to get it warm enough to poor... As a kid of 6-7 that early talk of oil treatments fascinated me and is most likely...

I know Marathon Gas is HUGE ( Over 6,000 stations ) but I remember seeing one the first time about 25 years ago and always thought it was cool Marathon teamed up with STP and had STP on the signs and said STP was in the gas, Made me at least "Think " I was getting more for me money... I wonder...

Funny how we all built different... in my much younger day I had a job as a City meter reader, I was dropped off at 7 am and picked up at 3:30 and spent my day walking, reading 300-500 electric and water meters a day and many days I would not talk to a single person after being dropped off in...

People with OP's mentality is the reason we have Walmart. Nothing matters but price and how much money OP has left in his wallet when he buys something. Try calling Walmart and asking a question and see what you get. Was a time before Walmart, Amazon and the internet that many consumers wanted...

The short time I owned a WRX ( Traded for a first year Hellcat ) I used Idemitsu and that older Japan made OEM Subaru filter but around 2014 / 15 Subaru changed that Japan made filter to Fram made OEM in the USA market, I then started using WIX filters with the same OEM by-pass PSI spec. I'm...

Way back about 1998 a Sunoco station in Rock Hill SC ( Dave lyle and I-77 ) had a dedicated pump with racing gas! At about 3 tanks in my old Harley that blue gas some how killed the stock carb! Looked like it melted the rubber parts and the gas turn off petcock swelled and stuck 1/2 way on and...

Ribeye or Filet is a good safe bet most places... Personally, I would rather eat a FANTASTIC great steak ONLY 1x a year and hamburger, chicken, pork ALL the other times than a not so great steak once a week!

I do remember seeing the old cans of Arco but I think it was off the market before I started driving in 1981? My good friend had turbo T-Bird, I was a fan as I was a early Ford guy as my fist new car purchase was a 1989 Mustang LX 5.0! Back then not 3K but I did 1,500 mile oil changes in my...

I know you may have a need for a pocket gauge but if I may offer my 2 cents. It takes a lot to impress me and I'm IMPRESSED! I purchased this Made In The USA Joes Racing tire gauge from Amazon and in this world we now live of import junk, I was blown away with the build of this thing! I ended...

Kinda off topic but my last truck I had the front clear bra professionally applied ( and the headlights ) and 1/3 rd up the hood and behind the wheels paint area. My clear bra was purchased to help protect me from rock chips, sand blased headlights etc but that clear bra film protected my...

Im on about my 27th year of running non-ethanol pure gas with a mix of Marvel Mystery Oil AND Sta-bil in 99.99% EVERY tank of gas my 1997 Harley has ever had in her! I purchased bike new in 97. I started doing this gas mix in every tank about the time the bike turned a year old and I changed...

FASTER upload speed is coming from Spectrum via copper, the tech is called High-split DOCSIS As I understand when that arrives across the US we will see speeds like fiber if not perhaps faster setting us up for a 10G speed future with copper. As I understand some states / areas have it now...

I had never seen this before, I just watched this video showing it in action and I GOT TO have one for cleaning my Harley Motorcycles! This is EXACTLY what I have been needing as I need to get in and around Chrome things ( air intake ) and behind things and under things with soap water but at a...

Back in 2014 I purchased a new Subaru WRX and wanted to protect the new headlights day one. I purchased a kit, the XPEL brand and did it myself. You need a Harbor Freight heat gun, a spray water bottle ( water and 1 drip of dish soap ) and a small $2 plastic squeegee thing to get the bubbles...
