Clean well and use nail polish. Comes it's own applicator brush. Choice of color is up to you.

The blower fan should be just upstream of the evaporator. Sometimes you can remove the blower and reach into the evaporator sensor.

I have seen a waste spark system fail to fire one cylinder and not it's twin. The problem was the coil. Doesn't make sense and I don't see how it is possible but it happens. Misfire detection is primarily preformed by the Crankshaft Position Sensor. Suggest, buy some fuel system cleaner with...

I always thought that oil was dark. so....I looked at a what I have in the stash. Sure enough it's is Dark!

When idling and making the noise, unplug the idle air control valve. See what happens. Clean the throttle body. Clean the outside of the air box and add some stick on wheel balancing weights to change the resonance of the box. Open the box remove filter and put in some large items that can't be...

Is your concern is oil consumption? Here is a youtuber who does a lot of Piston soaks on Audi automobiles with high oil consumption. Good results.

I have been told by two sources [old electricians] that the old glass round fuses are safer.

My guess. The engines failed early but past the point where they had to take off. The RAT deploys automatically with a dual engine failure. The procedure for engine restart involves shutting off the fuel to reset the engines. This was done with both fuel levers. Then either they got caught up in...

Over used oil can be thin and smell like rotten eggs and sulphur.

I have had 4 old Dodge Minivans. The original ball joints all lasted 180 - 195,000 miles. Replacements did not last half as long regardless of price.

Very good numbers on those tests! 4,000 miles per month is very easy on the oil. I would just use supertech.

I see there are youtube videos where people get very concerned about just .5 qts over filled, and they go about draining some oil. Has anyone here witnessed a problem with overfilling the oil of a typical car with 1 qt. or less?

The image of the bottle has two statements that are questionable. Maintains oil viscosity at normal operating temperatures. Is this possible when different engines require oils of different viscosities? Will not void manufacturer's new vehicle warranty. Diluting the on spec engine oil with...

I'd buy it!

Spray with water/dish detergent. Soak a bit. Rinse pushing out from the inside. Works for me!

Robots can build robots.

My opinion... we are screwed. There will only be very few rich and %99 of the people will be very poor. AI and robotics will end the need for %99 of human labor. Why would the powerful keep us around?

Looks like the plugs could have gone another 40.000 miles. Good thing to know because I have a 2018 2.0 skyactive engine as well. guess I'll hold off of the plug change. Amazing how clean the pistons are. Probably due to the PEA cleaner you've been using.

I don't think the efficiency of air filters is published but OEM filters are thought to be of high quality. Air filters let the bulk of the dirt through them when they are new, so you should change them as seldom as possible.

Why does Honda, Nissan, Toyota, Mazda and Subaru all spec filters that don't filter so well, and yet their engines last? How do you argue with success? The difference in filtration must not be significant?
