    Jeep grand cherokee new motor, oil recommendations

    Had one of those for years & years in a Dakota. Usually ran 0W-30 Esso XD3. Also used the 0W-40 flavour once as well. If I had it today I would use the 10W-30 T5, no doubt. I run that in my Cummins 5.9 & it seems to be doing very well on it. That's what I would run in your new 318. John.

    What weight in 9mm?

    Oh yes, the HST's night-time muzzle flash is REALLY well controlled. Was less than Golden Sabre & Ranger 'T' 147gr. rounds recently. John.

    What weight in 9mm?

    Use standard pressure 147gr HST in a 4" barrel S & W 5946. Not sure what a half inch less barrel would do to it's performance but that round looks astounding in any test that I've reviewed. Have carried the previously mentioned 9BPLE as well as the old Black Talon, Hydra-Shok's, Golden Sabre's...

    Trying to rationalize why a Glock 19 even exists.

    O/T! I had one of those toy M-16's back in the mid- or early-70's! Loved it. Was one of the best gifts I thought that I had ever had 'back in the day.' I ran all over the neighbourhood 'shooting it up.' CANNOT see that happening these days... I am living in the 'now' as opposed to living in...

    Is E10 Gas Really That Bad for OPE?

    Run E0 92 octane in everything now. But for the generator I think the answer is propane. Need to source a proper dual-fuel kit for it... John.

    F-15 Takes satellite into space

    Yes, well that all went sideways very suddenly, didn't it? Astro did a great job responding to, what appears to me, a person who has a very real & unresolved problem. However, as a recently deceased senior Marine from Maine who I knew said to a young, obviously suffering, ex-soldier working at...

    Bourbon/Rye - what to buy.

    As far as my exposure to Bourbons goes, I really like the Knob Creek Single Barrel variety. Makers is great. Makers 46 is very good. Great summer drams. Scotch is my thing but I don't drink it w/ ice. So come the summer time & I'm at a camp fire while travelling w/ the 5th wheel, I find that a...

    Rotella t6 vs castrol 0w40?

    Doubt that the TBN is gonna be much of a concern for him, but stand to be corrected. Assuming that you are referring to your forum name as to what you are driving? If so, I would be inclined to get a UOA done on the T6 & see just where you stand on the application. If you are doing standard...

    Several 9'mm add a .40?

    Doesn't matter what the heck it is if you aren't completely comfortable w/ it's use & as accurate as possible. You must be able to hit what you're shooting at under extreme duress & in terrible conditions. High-vis sights (tritium ideally) combined w/ white light of some sort goes along w/ it. I...

    PYB OCI ????

    I change up the Caravan's oil when the OLM indicates. I usually run a 5w-20 from a fairly large stash of Motormaster Formula 1 synthetic. HOWEVER, if I see a good deal on PYB, I get it. Running that in it now. My wife has a daily ten mile commute & most of it's service is short-hop, city-cycle...
