    Restaurant chains you wish would come back

    Does Arby’s count? I haven’t seen one in a long time. 7-11 should buy Arby’s and use their liquid cheese as a draw to drum up business.

    replaced a 12 month old Napa Proformer front wheel hub assembly. I've had better look with the $80 assemblies on Rockauto than this $200 hub.

    Get a code reader that can read live data. BlueDriver calls it mode 6. This will tell you which cylinders are missing even without a code. Then swap wires and see if it follows.

    When do you top off?

    Front Wheel hubs

    I've always had good luck with Napa Proformer. They cost more but warranty is a straight exchange same day if there's an issue. I realize they are probably made by Timkin or similar though.
