Ugh? Why do you have stop leak in the radiator? For two years? If the radiator is leaking, remove the radiator have it cleaned and repaired. Replace the thermostat, replace the coolant, replace the temp sending unit. Not that expensive to do things the way they are suppose to be done.

Didn't we just have a Havoline talk a couple days ago?

I hope it is. I got near to 50 quarts in my stash. Some of it I got for free.

1.- I can't buy it at a store, so what happens if I run short or put the last quart in and forget to reorder. 2.- The hoekuss poekuss with the API certification stuff, for years and years they claimed API certification was a unnecessary expense for a small company. Now they are submitting some...

1.- Tinkerbell Boulion 2.- George Poke I don't know about that Tinkerbell fellah, but George Poke sounds pretty good to me.

Hey JB that's neat, glad I ain't the only one that has those problems. Chemtech= more mouse milk, cafe specialty, super expensive, fast talking, motor lovin, motor oil. $5-6 for group III, you can get Supertech full synthetic cheaper and easier. I don't have a problem with Gr III motor oil...

Either oil would be good. 3k miles, won't even begin to use the potential of either one.

Champion Platinums, just bought a set myself, putting them in today. Glad to know they work okay. paid just about the same price as you did. Shifting- More or less what Mgregoir said. If you hold the peddle down it won't shift. Should have hit the rev limiter somewhere around 5500. 18mpg...

TropArtic Motorcraft Planty of others good ones out there, but you should be able to find either one of these easily. They will not cost you an arm or a leg either.

Done me a search on the Mercury website. Looks to me like 10w-30 or 10w-40 would work. They do however recommendation 25w-40, and state that multi-viscosity oils or oils with solid additives are not recommended. Why would Mercury state that Multi-vicosity oils are not recommended but then turn...

Do you suspect some sort of problem with oil, engine or filters? M1 can do 3.5 easy with lots left over. Unless you just want to spend your money, what do you expect to learn?

I think is as good as other name brand oils. I would use it and have used it in most everything I drive.

How much did them filters cost? Just cut'em to pieces, didn't even use'em. You guys got way lots more money than I have.

I go the cheaper route with my genny. Presently using Syntec 5w-40 bought on close out at Wally World for $1.75. In the past I have used Exxon 30w Superflow, Havoline Ursa 30w, and Havoline 30w HD. All have served me well, readily available, and affordable. Hurricanes Katrina and Rita, days...

Nope, not me. New filter every OCI. At $1.44 each, I change the filter. Am I wasting the capability remaining in the filter, maybe. But it's only $1.44. Can't understand, some of you guys go to extremes to insure you have the latest, and bestest filters in the world. Some of us here have been...

Okay! Just checked out the Purolator filter. No internal reinforcement and the end caps are different than the filters pictured.

eljefino That is my usual source of filters. But it never hurts to have a back up plan.
