    Non-English bands that perform in English

    In the mid 70's, there was a band out of Germany called "LAKE". I bought their first album as it was promoted on our local FM station. It was a decent LP but they were short lived here in the states. I supposed they're still around in some form around the world as I did look them up. Does anyone...

    INTERSTATE Deep Cycle Marine Battery

    I am keeping the battery on the maintainer. I am(now) noticing that when the voltage reaches 13.6v-13.7v, the maintainer turns off(stops charging) and the battery is holding a higher voltage while resting. I want to see if after a week or longer, the battery will hold closer to 13.4v-13.5v when...

    NEW Vehicle Advice / Recommendations: Anyone? Subaru or Toyota? What says the gang?

    Since the mainstream compact SUVs are the largest selling segment outside of pickup trucks, car mfg’s are putting their best foot forward in this class and there are many very good options out there. Test drive the ones that most interest you or all of them. Some may surprise you with how good...

    INTERSTATE Deep Cycle Marine Battery

    Greetings! My neighbor gave me,(no lie, a brand new looking) INTERSTATE Deep Cycle Marine Battery(FLA) from 2017 which is rated atop the battery info, 800CCA/1000MCA. He must'a bought it and never used it, just sitting on a shelf. There are no witness marks on the battery posts. It looks unused...

    NEW Vehicle Advice / Recommendations: Anyone? Subaru or Toyota? What says the gang?

    I always take my time and drive just about every vehicle in the segment that I’m looking at. Even the same vehicles from different dealerships this way I can judge consistency in the quality and trim levels. Often, vehicles surprise me. For example, the vehicle that ranks lower on my list is way...

    Over 70 and still wrenching your own vehicles

    As much as I once loved doing work on our vehicles, I’ve slowed way down not only due to age but physical ability(hand, back, knees hurt) and I just don’t want to do the work that I used to do. It's not that I am ill, just sore after I've been on the ground for too long. I love to save the money...

    Can I use Idemitsu PSF in my 97 Buick Park Ave?

    I have used HONDA P/S Fluid in many a GM P/S units with wonderful success. So if Idemitsu makes Honda P/S fluid then, I’d say yes indeed.

    sauna or hot-tub; for aches and pains

    In addition to the above, I’m always working around the house or helping others. So my days are busy without feeling overburdened. I do just what I want to do but I have a time of day that I want to stop. Keep busy!

    Bad smell from vents

    I’ve had good success spraying disinfectant sanitizer(Lysol or others) in through the outside vent with the fan on drawing the air to the inside. Works quite well!

    sauna or hot-tub; for aches and pains

    Weather permitting, I ride my bike 15-20/day. 25-30 pushups(when my shoulders don’t click/snap). 200 crunches/side crunches most days when my back allows for it. Walk a couple of miles when possible after our early evening meal. Squats on the off days(weights dependent) nothing too heavy. I...

    Nissan Recall for Potential VC-Turbo Engine Failure

    I think that the VC engines came along, “too little/too late. Supposedly the engines were in R&D for ~20 years before coming to market. When most companies are hitting the market with more & more hybrid & full electric vehicles, maybe new ICE designs is not what the market needs. However...

    Car only starts in neutral?

    I agree! I’ve Adjusted them on Mazdas. They have oblong holes that you can undo the hold down bolts and possibly turn it clockwise to see if that works if not try the other way. It’s most likely just out of adjustment.The rangefinder is only going to move about an eighth of an inch in either...

    Pennzoil refused my rebate for purchase of 2 jugs!

    In this instance, I've called oil companies Customer Service Line(if there is one) and talked to a rep. They've helped me in the past and I then received my rebate money.

    PT Cruiser lighting

    Yes, first start by replacing both bulbs and then test to see if they work. If so, replace any other bulbs in those lenses as long as everything is all apart for easy access. Quick story... A driver on the road tells my buddy that his rear brake lights don't work. So my buddy asks me for help...
