2012 Honda CR-V with 307850 miles. Uses some brands/series of oils and lighter grades between oil changes. Also has an intermittent oil leak from the oil filter adapter housing, which also depends on the specific oil. I do 80-90% highway miles. I now use Mobil 1 ESP 0W-30 or Mobil 1 FS 0W-40...

That's insane. I am familiar with the area. It has some crime no doubt, but not like you would have to lock up an AC capacitor selection in a store.

I have my Troy Bilt weed trimmer taken apart up to the point of removing one bolt, that I am waiting on a Torx socket via Amazon to be able to remove. I need to replace the spark plug - which you cannot without removing the plastic outer casing - and more importantly, clean the spark arrestor...

This. My Honda has halogens and our Mazda has the modern LED projectors. The light output of the Mazda right up close is bright and fully illuminated, but there is no down-road projection of light. I have to drive it with the high beams on. Some LED headlights put out this massive amount of...

I'm not sure what you mean by 'all the time' but I'll take it. We've had no interactions whatsoever that I recall.

I am aware of the retrofit systems like the Morimoto. Good luck with that. Not only are you going to need to remove the headlights - which to be fair, in some cases is cake, but you're going to have to separate the lenses from the housings which are likely old and brittle. One look at used...

I can't believe I am the only one who has said this, or that I have to say it - LED bulbs DO NOT BELONG in halogen reflector bowl headlight housings. If you need to see better, install LED driving lights that are able to be switched off or get a newer vehicle.

I did my stocking up back in May when everything was at the 'regular' prices at Walmart. Then it didn't look like a shift was happening until this past week, and I am glad that I did. I wish I had the funds to buy that 12 quart box of Mobil 1 0W-40 from Walmart that was $60, as it has now...

No, we get upwards of 100, but still - 30% humidity isn't destroying wood in your home. High humidity makes 80F feel closer to 90F, so imagine what it feels like at an actual 90 or 95F. We get heat indexes of over 110. It's actually less humid on the central east coast of Florida than it is here.

It just broke 10 am here in Virginia and it's 83% humidity. Many days in the summer it's 80% or more overnight and into the morning. I don't ever want to hear about 50-60% humidity being high, I DREAM of 50-60% humidity. We had to spend $15,000 a couple of years ago to kill mold under our...

Fair assessment. Also, a lot of people here who are fishing for validation for the choice of oil that they are already dead set on, and not really a wide breadth of input that goes against their choices. The main thing stopping me from using Valvoline Restore and Protect is that they are not...

Same. Mobil 1 FS 0W-40 for everything including my CR-V, although I am giving ESP 0W-30 a long spin in it until what I stocked up on runs out.

My issue is not so much with the string as it is the bump-feed heads. I am completely done with them. I changed mine out for the Grass Gator that you just replace individual sections of the string with.

Some people never learn.

If you're following the MM you're already behind the curve.
