As mentioned above - check to see if the part warranty covers labor and service call. Additionally, I would also see if the warranty covers the cost of the replacement refrigerant as well. Also, is the warranty for the evaporator coil from the AC system manufacturer (Rheem, Carrier, Trane...

Flexogen hoses all the way. First ones we purchased about 40 years ago were manufactured by Gates. Have never sprung a leak. I believe that Gates sold the Flexogen brand to Gilmore. Today I would purchase the Flexogen Heavy Duty or Super Duty hoses.

We have 2 Toro Super Recycler self propelled mowers, one is Personal Pace and the other is a standard 3 speed. First one was purchased in 1996, and the Personal Pace one was purchased in 2007. Sort of his and hers. My wife prefers the standard 3 speed and I prefer the Personal Pace. Both have...

My preference between restarting and powering down, is to power down the device, wait about 30 seconds to let any residual power in the RAM memory "drain away", and then turn the device back on. I normally do this to my PCs daily, and my Android devices once a week. I find the extra few minutes...

Any 5W30 that is rated SN+ or better, Dexos 1 Gen 2 or better, ILSAC GF-5 or better, etc. will be fine.

Dorman sway bar links barely lasted 2 years on our 1999 Buick Century before they gave up the ghost. Replaced them with Moog Problem Solver links and except for being dirty, they are still in great shape after 9 years.

As Pew mentioned, an inexpensive Bluetooth OBDII dongle like this: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B011NSX27A/?tag=elightbars-20 And the Torque Pro app ($5 one time registration/license fee) will allow you to monitor and save data from just about every sensor on your vehicle once you set up...

Another thing to remember is that if the engine were to be damaged as a result of a lubrication failure (provided the proper oil grade and specs were used) then the oil company (or whatever company is behind the brand of the oil) would pay for the repairs.

It's too bad that Warren Buffet (or someone similar) does not invest in a company or companies that say remanufactures alternators and starters, insists that they be remanufactured to a higher quality than they are being remanufactured to today. Insist that the components that are to be replaced...

Thanks redhat!

As long as the Sunoco oil, be it a synthetic blend or a full synthetic is rated SM, SN, SN+, or SP it will be fine in your application.

Yup. 1992 Olds 88 Royale with the 3.8L V6 1999 Buick Century with the 3.1L V6 1999 Chevy Silverado with the 5.3L V6 (I would still have it if it had not been stolen) 2004 Chevy TrailBlazer with the 4.2L Inline 6

Why feel guilty? They are offering to test the parts for free to garner good will in the hopes that when you need something you'll hopefully remember your positive experience(s) with them and purchase that next whatever part you need from them. Just like with their Duralast brake pads and...

Actually, you have it backwards. BorgWarner finalized the acquisition of Remy on November 10, 2015 (https://www.borgwarner.com/newsroom/press-releases/2015/11/09/borgwarner-completes-acquisition-of-remy-international). Then BBB Industries acquired Remy from BorgWarner as announced on January...

I can remember the sonic booms from the early 1960s! Every time one occurred, my mother would come looking for me to make sure I had not fallen down or caused something to fall and hit the floor.

Well, you've heard about the beer that made Milwaukee famous, this is the stuff that makes Milwaukee some money. As far as the drug concern goes, I would imagine that the normal sewage treatment processes and the microbes associated with it along with sunlight would decompose/degrade any drugs...

Best organic fertilizer is Milorganite. The stuff is fantastic and will really green and help thicken the lawn. It is packed full of micronutrients that will make lawns healthy. I would apply it at one-half the recommended rate or else you could be mowing every other day. By the way, it is a low...

I looked at a car for an individual I had gone to grade school with who told me that someone had taken a chainsaw to the rear bumper cover. Well, it was broken but it was not from a chainsaw - more likely it cracked from old age, sun exposure, or she backed into something when it was freezing...

Oh I agree completely with you, and some of those people are/were relatives of mine! Don't forget that 2% of the population who will want to add some flavor of Kool-Aid of whatever color in order to come up with a custom blend with a psychedelic color - I know a few of them too!

I look at it this way - the cost of 1 gallon of Prestone 50:50 DexCool:Water (distilled or de-ionized I assume) is $14.18, and the cost of 1 gallon of Prestone DexCool Concentrate is $15.18. That means 1 gallon of the premix solution contains 1/2 gallon of DexCool which costs $7.59 so the...
