    200hr oci for kubota L2501?

    The oil in the tractor changes it's self until I get around to fixing it and the generators don't belong to me.

    Installed PPE Diff Cover on my 24 Sierra 1500

    Yep the flat back ones appear to make more heat. It's almost like the OEMs knew what they were doing....

    John Deere generator filter ... BT259 ran 3,850hrs

    My only issue with threads up is it allows the sludge flecks collect at the bottom, right next to the bypass valve. Its probably not a problem.

    How to improve air filters that appear to be made out of used clothes dryer sheets?

    A little more than a year and a half on this Hyundai sonata air filter with k&n oil. The air filter box is slightly cracked and the factory cold air snorkel was blown away from the deer encounter. Go fast ones are probably worse in every way I can think of and cost $300 to $400. Used OEM ones...

    PROVIDENCE HD 10w-30 HDEO VOA

    I'd run that in something like my Kubota that doesn't run too hot.

    $0 R-134a recovery.

    Yep a normal can of supertech 12oz r-134a weighs about 437g. The one I filled weights 511gm lol. I'll keep it in the fridge till it's time to use. It absolutely feels more full than any of the news cans I have. If I had to I could shooting a few ounces into the already full can but I'd rather not.

    $0 R-134a recovery.

    I'm going to check the trash cans at the local auto parts stores for empty 134a cans later today it's supposed to be over 100f with low thunderstorm chances. After 2 hours most of the ice is melted and the can feels full. If I can find an empty can I'll weigh it before and after. It's...

    Hyundai kia oil filter cut open at 6,600 miles and 13 months on filter, 40,000 miles engine.

    Oil test. Used PP 5w-30, filled to just past the low mark topped off about 4 to 6oz at a time with Mobil1 V-twin or Castrol GTX classic car 20w-50 oil. Still seems like it's losing viscosity. Right now it's got PP 10w-30 in and had a couple top offs of Castrol GTX 20w-50. Good thing PP is...

    do you use free AI tools?

    I'm avoiding AI as much as I can. It seems to automatically pop up when I google search something. I only trust it if I kinda already know the answer. I'm not relying on it for something I know nothing about.

    Some new old motor oil

    Looks like you're set for a while on break-in and flush oil.

    $0 R-134a recovery.

    Problem is don't have a recovery tank I can feed into. I have a gauge manifold. The disposable tanks I have have built in check valves so you can't pump into them. My recovery bottle that I can pump into has R-290 in it. So this is my solution. From a more elegant time. Only problem is I've...

    Unloader for air compressor?

    The unloader valve makes sure the motor will turn over nice and easy when the thing gets short cycled. When the air compressor cuts off without an unloader valve eventually it will bleed the pressure back through the compressor and unload it's self.

    SAE30 ND used in mower with oil filter

    If it comes out of your machines then you know where it came from. Fram synthetic endurance appears to filter well down to less than 10 microns. If it's going in a neglected mower with event horizon black oil to be used as flush old for an hour or less what's it going to hurt?

    Harbor freight 173cc engine tested, quantified

    Yeah I was looting a dead relatives place a few weeks ago and found old harbor freight mailers showing the 173cc mower engine back in 2016. I believe I was $120.

    John Deere generator filter ... BT259 ran 3,850hrs

    It's a John Deere 5.9L model 3179. It was supposed to be a backup generator, probably used it in place of properly wiring in stuff. Or used it instead of paying to have 3 phase ran out somewhere.

    Hit a deer can it be fixed?

    Ordered a radiator support for $250. Special hybrid specific radiator fan with shroud for $200. So far so good and still under a thousand. I don't want to try and work around a hot radiator trying to dig out the Radiator support and not blow the A/C charge. Probably won't have a tree to support...
