I just snagged a Raytek ST60 XB pistol-grip IR thermometer a couple of weeks ago based on this excellent advice. Quite a bit less expensive than the Flukes- unfortunately, they may be phasing out the Raytek line (?) and if so I would suspect profit/greed. It is a great tool. THANK YOU BITOG...

I've used hand signals on rare occasions even with brake lights functioning. Especially if there is a good possibility of the sun blinding the follower- e.g., where I used to live there was an east-west main street and I drove westbound in the evenings, having to make a right-hand turn a couple...

I love sardines also. Great snack for lunch. I prefer the run-of-the-mill oil packing, no LC20 or Auto-RX. I usually eat 'em straight out of the can.

The most convenient where I do 95% of my shopping- Chevron Supreme. My default store is Costco.

IIRC I was researching on (gasp!) Lucas Synthetic Oil Stabilizer and found this website which encouraged me to use the stuff for bicycle chains, crosscut shredders, ANYWHERE except in my vehicles! I was additionally interested in some AMSOIL products and found that Pablo lived only about 1/2...

Ketchup on scrambled eggs. My cousin in Alaska thought it was most strange! Malathion bars.

Originally Posted By: SuperDave456 I have been reading these boards for months, and from what I understand the majority of the real "cleaning" happens during the rinse phase. Auto RX loosens up the stuff, the rinse phase "rinses" it away. Don't give up yet. This is exactly why I use somewhat...

Originally Posted By: Rick20 I agree with the dino as best for both cleaning and rinse phases. What had you used on the prior cleanings? I had M1 5W-30 in the first treatment phase with dino in the rinse, and AMSOIL ASL in the second treatment phase with dino for rinse. I might add these also...

Originally Posted By: wannafbody I see Iron I tested the flecks with one of my trusty NdFeB magnets- no iron. They do crush easily into dust- graphite.

My intent was to expand the pleats to reveal their contents; maybe there is an easier way to dismantle the filter proper, though some seem to do so on their own even while in service! I was impressed by how well this WIX filter seems to be built.

Wow, that was FAST! Thank you, Moribundman.

Sure, go ahead. I have no objection whatsoever.

Well, you have a point, Mori. True, this is the very first filter I've cracked open, but the carbonaceous flecks I suspect are not typical.

Wow, they done it up real good. MUCH more professional-looking now.

If my camera had a macro mode it would be possible. Also, I'm able to zoom in when I visit the page...?

Yep, it definitely varies with type of drug. I would not use an antibiotic beyond the expiry date; however, opiates such as codeine, Percocet, etc. do not lose their potency with age IIRC and should be fine but that's just my opinion. Opiates are the one drug I would never throw out. As Eddie...
