    Spark plug gap?

    Let's start out with this: KIA and Hyundai have a 100k warantee. Coils are in essence a device to create a short circuit. They are designed this way, but are also designed to operate in a certain range, more specifically the resistance of jumping the gap. Coil over plug coils are less robust...

    Battery maintainer/Trickle Charger-Your Favorite?

    I needed a charger when my 40 yo one took a nosedive. Settled on a Stanley model from Walmart, 40a start 15a fast charge 5a slow and 1 a float. Kind of a misnomer tho, it can vary anywhere between 15 and .5amp. Battery desulfate cycle and an alt checker. $54ish Only downside is if the battery...

    .44 Special for Home Defense

    There are mods I've seen on glocks that put a t handle on the slide to facilitate racking. However the magazine issue still remains I'd say a semi auto 20 gauge with a nice, big charging handle and 18" barrel would be easier, and softer on her. People knock the 20 because its not the 12, but...

    New Rem 870

    Remington probably needed to cut corners to meet a price point. My Stevens 320 is rough, but runs 100% maybe Remington thought the same. Look into aguila mini shells, if they feed reliability you can go from 6 to 10-11 shells. The kel-tec ksg can have almost 30 shells that way

    flowmaster super 44

    They are made uber thick. Lifespan is probably close to OEM, but why. They are loud as [censored]. Most of the slednecks around here have them under their trucks, no tail pipe, or side dump and the bed acts as an amplifier. You can hear them from blocks away. At least you are getting the super...
