    Rock Auto? Legit place to buy GM oil filters like PF63? Counterfeit?

    Not to mention the fact that they have better lawyers than you do. The MM act is helpful in principal but in reality GM can dispute almost anything and it then becomes up to you to prove a counter factual. I knew a guy that claimed he worked in the engine lab at the Milford MI proving grounds...

    Rock Auto? Legit place to buy GM oil filters like PF63? Counterfeit?

    I can buy the AC PF63 filter at my local Chevy dealer for 30% less than Walmart charges. I buy all mine at Rock auto and have never had an issue. I also use the Champ 10063 or 10063XL for less money than the AC. My experience has been that the standard Champ filter is the same as the PF63 for...

    battery fire shuts down fwy.

    "can be easily put out" Said no one ever who has fought vehicle fires. Magnesium wheels used to be a thing, those are a joy to extinguish.

    Will this additive help?

    I ran water wetter in an LLY Duramax that ran hot due to poor design and insufficient radiator. I put it in with the 50/50 Dexcool and it did make a noticeable difference. Its supposed to decrease the surface tension between the coolant and the radiator.

    Delvac 1300 Super Synthetic since when?

    Marketing. I noticed it a couple years ago. We ran the Delvac 1300 in all our trucks at work and it never let us down. Lots of good analysis on S60 egr and non egr, Ford 6.0, Cummins 5.9 12 and 24 valve, Duramax, Mercedes MBE along with an old Ford 7.3

    Grill guards going away?

    Airbags deploying is a funny thing. I have seen quite a few vehicles that looked as though the bags should have deployed but didnt and some that had deployed when visually the vehicle didnt look that bad. As I understand it they are all about energy measurement by the sensors and deployment...

    Grill guards going away?

    The airbag system in the trucks is designed for the front structure the truck was built with. I dont know of any study done on the changes a brush guard or grill guard would make but its sure to alter it in some way.

    2002 Avalanche 2500 transmission fluid

    I vote Maxlife. Currently on sale for $51 on Amazon for 3) 4 qt jugs. Its DexVI compliant. I dont believe its as "universal" as it meets the minimum requirements for that labeling. (if that makes sense) Dex VI isnt as well stocked around here as it used to be and its way more expensive to the...

    Dealing with people who don't care-auto maintenance

    Some people I referred to as askholes, they would ask your opinion and then ignore it only to come back later after the failure and ask you again. I got to the point with some of the people at work where I would just say I dont know and then walk away. Theres a limit to the amount of...

    Neighborhood feud

    I have built 3 houses over the years. There is always a process that seems to take place when the boundaries are being found. My current lot was being encroached on heavily by one of the neighbors. After the survey I marked the boundaries and ran string along them while plotting the house...

    Champ XL PH2867XL CnP

    I dont think you could beat the Champ XL for value, even if you had a big stick.

    Will 4 year old gas run in a generator?

    Carb kits are expensive. The last one I rebuilt on my Toro snowblower was from storing it with E10 during house construction (went to FL for the winter so it never got used) Lots of corrosion from the E10 a simple clean out didnt work. All my stuff gets E0 before its put away after the season...

    Continue on with Kirkland 0W-20 or switch to Amsoil?

    I have run the Kirkland in a couple different GM vehicles with changes around 6k. The analysis has shown the Kirkland oil to be a solid choice especially when considering the price. I believe I paid around $17 for a 5 qt jug of 0W20 for my Equinox. That combined with a Champ XL filter puts me...

    What oil do sprint cars use?

    I have a cousin with a good friend that runs a winged Sprint car regionally at places like Owosso and similar tracks. He told me the guy uses Mobil 1 in a 15W50 which is the same thing my cousin runs in his Outlaw super late model.
