    Best small SUV or sedan for child car seat room

    I know you said small suv. But I think a small suv and 2 car seats are a bad idea. 2 seats plus the stuff you will need. I'd look at a minivan or a Tahoe. I have a cx-5. I'd never want to try 2 car seats in it with any regular use.

    Switching from 0w-20 to 0w-30 experience

    I have 0w-40 in my mazda , and before that 5-w30. Both in place of 0w-20. I see no difference in fuel mileage.

    Repairing damaged manifold stud and smoothing surface

    I'm not sure a hand held belt sander can do this to the level you would like. I does look good. I have done aluminum cylinder heads, and aluminum oil pump covers on a sand paper attached to a piece of glass. I don't think that would work well with cast iron, might take forever.

    Oil change interval for heavy use Predator 5000 inverter generator

    The Manual for the Predator 5000 does say every 100 hours. My Predator 4375 says every 20hrs. I have High Performance Lubricants Premium Plus 0w40 in it. I'm going to go 50 hrs. Ran it earlier this week, some car accident took down a pole and transformer. Ran it 8 hours.

    Why is painting so hard? Even a simple metal bracket.

    Agreed, something is affecting this adhesion. That paint is wrinkling up. If those are thin coats, its contaminated somehow.

    Talk to Me about Watches!

    I buy what i like, not what i think others like. I don't have any really expensive watches, but i would like to get a Longines, Breitling, or a nice Tag Heuer at some point, its not a priority now. I would never wear a fake.

    Husqvarna 545 mark II

    550xp update. The X-force 18 inch bars suck. 2 have failed with the sprocket seizing up, plenty of oil. It does not have a grease port, but neither does the oregon versacut bar i have on there now, and its fine.

    No name station selling top tier gas?

    It's about false advertising. Whether you "need" it or not does not make it ok to advertise something and it not be what you deliver.
