most older cars will have small issues that need addressing, for the price seems to be a good deal. I have 2007 Yaris a/t, 310,000 miles on it, burns no oil. Still use it commute and has been a very reliable vehicle since I’ve owned it ay 195,000 miles. Mine also has a low idle and sometimes...

Thanks for the responses, interesting after ready your comments I looked at the product data sheet for cobalt and they list it as “load wear index scar”. Looking around I don’t see any other grease specs listing the load wear index scar. Even googling load wear index scar brings up very little...

Hey guys I have been looking at the product data sheets of different greases and their specs, and something I discovered caught my eye with the 4 ball weld test and wear scar or astm d2596. When looking at valvoline cobalt data sheet they list their wear scar at 1.15mm which appears much...

I have not used either of those however I’m sure both are decent helmets. I have used a Miller performance on and off for roughly 10 years and besides 2 buttons not working from me leaving it outside in the rain still works fine. My current shield is a Lincoln Viking I think 3350 with their 4c...

A good powder coat Job very tough to remove and either needs to be mechanically or chemically removed with industrial grade paint stripper. I would recommend using phosphoric acid sold as rust oleum gel rust remover, metal prep and etch, also ospho is good to help dissolve some of the rust that...

My vote goes to lubriplate gr-132 or syn gr-132. After reading about what grease to use in angle grinder heads. I came across lubriplate and they specifically developed this grease for small electrical tool gear box’s...

Yup, I just had same issue with a new tube. I really wanted to like valvoline full synthetic grease but I just can’t get past how it seems dried out, out of a brand new tube. I’m sure it does lubricate but after switching to valvoline cobalt ,a lithium sulphonate base and when it touches a...

I agree traveller marine and off road is a good choice. With a water washout of .5 which is less than paragon 3000 of .75%. It also has a pretty good 4 ball weld point and timken ok load. Plus it is reasonably priced at $6.50 and readily available if you have a local tsc.

Yeah interesting that the polyurea did the worst out of the group I listed. After looking up the specs on some other polyurea greases in comparison to Lucas oil xtra duty. Magnalube-g- 5% Mobil polyrex em nlgi 2 -1.9% It appears polyurea can be water resistant however Lucas xtra duty seems not...

After reading another thread I saw paragon 3000 recommended for its washout resistance of .65%.

I picked up a few tubes of the traveler marine grease today to try, I bought a case of Schaeffers 219 back in summer to try out. Schaeffers claims 800kg weld point but no timken load rating so next I tried using Valvoline cobalt which has a lithium sulphonate base with 800kg weld point along...
