    Rare exotic engines may need 10w60 according to single youtube channel

    Apparently generating discussion with clickbait titles isn't allowed. Just trying to have a little fun. Whoever modified the title, it's now very inaccurate. "single youtube channel" doesn't take into account the massive amount of time and testing, and an RB is not a "rare" or "exotic" engine...

    Rare exotic engines may need 10w60 according to single youtube channel

    Thought this was interesting, even though it's highly specific to the engine design. TL;DW: Castrol or Nulon 10w60 has the best protection in RB engines.

    How many times have you switched sides on the thick vs. thin debate?

    I’ve always been on the thicker side, but I never understood people that run 15w40 and 20w50 when there are oils that have better startup characteristics than that glue. I know, they all say VII and sheer and blah blah, but I’ve never been a guy trying to stretch my OCI’s either. I just started...

    GM Plant Shutdown

    The point is it was a government mandated subsidy of an unsuccessful company.

    156mph in a Dodge Charger..

    I'm not arguing that there should be no consequences for driving over a posted speed limit, I'm arguing against your excessive punishment of prison time and a felony. Who's the one not reading the nuance here? My post was hyperbole.

    156mph in a Dodge Charger..

    Driving a car is a threat to public safety bro, you know how many people die in car accidents? Less people on the road = more safety. Time to restrict people's licenses... Let's not even talk about how your carbon footprint is affecting public safety. Let's ban ICE engines. Get with the program...

    GM Plant Shutdown

    Let's hope so. Let's also hope there's not another bailout or clash for clunkers event for these manufacturers to fall back on.

    Correct. He was saying I was confusing the MiG-19 and MiG-9, which I was.

    LOL, I also have an awesome, happy, peaceful, and prosperous life, so I'm not sure why you're assuming. Just because you can't recognize the erosion of your freedom for an illusion of safety, doesn't mean I'm somehow a miserable person.

    Smells like tyranny. Yeah, what SubyRubyRoo said. No victim, no crime. You belong in MA for sure.

    Worst Soviet Fighter

    Why are you judging a fourth gen fighter, which btw are in wide use around the world, including by the United States, by it’s stealth capabilities? It was never intended to be stealth, just like the F-16 and F-15, it’s peers. By what measure are you saying it has a subpar radar and avionics...

    Worst Soviet Fighter

    Most of what you're talking about Jackson, is poor training and logistics, not actual capability. The massive amount of easily portable ground to air missiles we've been pumping into Ukraine limits the use of both fixed and rotary wing aircraft. The did swat down the entire Ukrainian air force...

    Mouse trap baiting

    I use both the bucket trap and the smaller ones with a reservoir. I've had great luck with a small piece of ground beef in the reservoir, and peanut butter in the bucket trap. I've caught 12 mice in the bucket trap in two weeks or so.

    Worst Soviet Fighter

    Interesting. You sure they weren't talking about the AK12? I would surmise that they either treated them as cheap weapons and junked a bunch of them or they sold them off to other countries in desperate attempts to make some money. I know they don't have AK12's for every soldier, but that is a...

    Bulged trunnions, which are much larger than AKMs and borrowed from the RPK, along with the 1.5mm thick receiver are what make the Yugos so heavy.

    Worst Soviet Fighter

    The AKM is actually a very expensive gun to make. It was only cheap because slave labor and the economy of the Eastern bloc scale. American companies are just now producing AK variants at a reasonable cost. The worst fighter was the Mig 19, which couldn't fire it's guns without stalling the...
