    PT Cruiser lighting

    Ours has after-market wheels on it. It was a one owner and in great conjunction. My wife loves them so I told her it’s your car, drive what you want…lol.

    PT Cruiser lighting

    Solved: just burned out bulbs and the drivers side taillight sticker was a bit corroded. Changed all out and all is good as new. Thanks everyone due the input! Truly very much appreciated!

    3.6 pentastar as bad as it seems ???

    My 2018 Wrangler has over 100K miles and no issues with the engine. Replaced a radiator and that’s it. My UOA always comes back great as well. Love my first Jeep.

    PT Cruiser lighting

    All, My wife recently purchased an 2005 PT Cruiser with 76K miles. Tonight when she turned on her headlights, the headlights came on but no rear taillights/brake lights (except high rear 3rd light) or turn signals. Any starting points would be appreciated. That’s in advance

    Whats so great about Jeeps?

    They are extremely fun to drive. They are not practical in any way other than to get from point A-B without a doubt. If we all drove practical vehicles, there would be nothing but hybrid minivans on the road. My Jeep Wrangler has been a DD for work, had over 100K miles and gets along just fine.

    2018 Wrangler fluid changes

    Hello everyone. I am getting ready to change my transmission and differential fluids in my 2018 Wrangler JK (non-rubicon). This will be the first time for me in this vehicle, so my question is: Do I stay with Chrysler ATF fluid or use something different like Valvoline or Amsoil? I have heard...

    Propane tank question

    I have a propane tank that was used by a fork lift. There are two connections. One says vapor and the other says liquid. I need to connect to a heater and neither one mates up to my heaters connectors. Which connection should I use the liquid or the vapor? Any help is appreciated. Thanks
