Astro, thanks for this information. I have a bare bones Springfield 1911 and am happy to learn how not to abuse the firearm. I am a Browning Hi Power and 1911 fan.

I am loo king forward to hearing from Revving to Redline. I think he puts on the miles?

I am with you there! If one has to suffer with only one car, one may as well drive something fun.

I never considered heat soak. Interesting theory. The reason I chose Amalgamated, is because of the cleaning, lubricity, cetane and winter anti-wax properties. Every tank gets treated at the 300:1 ratio during winter. My injectors should be well prepared after 60k miles of steady use of clean...

I would be careful, because I KNOW my wife would find out and respond by using my toothbrush to clean the bathroom sink and perhaps, the toilet.👹

If your old washer has a mechanic switch as opposed to a circuit board, I would be inclined to keep it going by repairing it.

There’s the answer! The woke European has made poor decisions. Perhaps the board of directors needs to go too?

I miss the sound of the police helicopter orbiting my neighborhood.

I have noticed some discrepancies with Fleetguard publications. I found similar information while researching oil filters. I am still using Fleetguard products for my Ram Cummins, but I am finding your information on Caterpillar fuel filters to be more descriptive.

That is interesting. I occasionally get a rough idle too. I have to do some diagnostic work and see how worn the CP3 pump and fuel injectors are by doing the leak-by tests. I have been using a maintenance dose of fuel treatment made by Amalgamated Inc. https://www.amalgamatedinc.com/ for the...

Thank you for the links, time and research that you put into these posts! I have 212,000 miles on my 2003 Ram and still have the original injectors. I am having difficulty with cold starts now and have had trouble for three winters now. I am okay if I keep the block heater plugged in. I want...

Hello, what year is your Ram pickup? I have a 2003 Ram. Cummins. My truck has the lift pump in the engine bay and would like to add a similar fuel filter after the lift pump. I have the factory 7 micron fuel filter immediately down stream from the lift pump. I would feel better filtering fuel...

Herd animals.

I used to fly the Caravan myself. Part 135 cargo outfit. I was fortunate to never have more than about 3/8th of an inch of ice accumulation. In training, we were taught that the airplane would not carry very much ice. The training outfit never defined “much” ice, and I thought that child...

I have used silicon spray with goo results. Thank you for bringing this up. I need to apply the spray to my door seals…

I think that is a great question. My understanding is that the VII polymers can produce deposits in the combustion chambers. Some VII’s are better than others. I am still a fan of mono grade oils for that reason. That said, I am using multi grade oils, especially during winter. I am interested...

Wow! That is scary.

I wish I could afford an M14. I am happy with the M1 Garand though.

If you like your wife’s daughter, don’t let get married to the boyfriend. He has poor judgement.

I am guessing that my driving profile would not work for a long OCI? Most of my driving is for 10 miles in 20 minutes of average 30 mph, twice a day for 3 days a week. I drive maybe 10K miles a year spread over 3 cars. Does anyone think I could safely use HPL engine oil for extended OCI’s? I...
