    Spybot Is There Anything Better For Shop Computer?

    I use the free version of Avast, Malwarebytes, and SuperAntispyware. Of course Avast runs all the time. I do a complete scan with each one once a week and haven't had any issues.

    Are Master Keys real?

    I had an 86 Toyota pickup that had a well worn key. It would work in a bunch of different vehicles. Back in the early 90's I went to a used car lot with a friend that was looking for a new ride. The people were really rude. I noticed that they had about 6 Celica's on the lot. Just for fun I...

    Investment Riches on Subprime Auto Loans to Poor

    I'm not rich by any means, but I also don't really fault someone for making money in this situation. Nobody held a gun to anyones head to sign u for something they can't afford. If they are so ignorant as to not look at their finances and make the right decision then they get what they signed up...

    safe, effective, engine flush/cleaner?

    One thing to ponder. On the F150 I have I ran some MMO in with the oil for the first few OCI's. It did start cleaning things. However, it had some crud in there that I didn't know about and as it cleaned it knocked stuff into the pan. Then clogged the oil pickup and ruined the engine. So if...

    grinding calipers

    You can grind them. I've helped guys do them on older Mustangs. The trick is to grind slowly and a little at a time. Grind a little, put the wheel on, rinse repeat until you have enough clearance. However, it also depends where on the caliper you are grinding. Post up some pics with the caliper...

    Anyone see the Maaco episode of Undercover Boss?

    I watched a good businessman open a family run Maaco franchise location. Use good paint, do good prep and paint jobs, and pay his guys a fair wage for the work. However, with the prices he was forced to do the jobs for it was realized that it wasn't going to work. A battle took place with Maaco...

    Rear main seal stop leak.....

    I've used Blue Devil on several cars over the years where the person didn't want to pay to fix the rear main. It worked on all but the major leaks. But even on the bad onnes it slowed things down more than I thought it would.

    Why Chirp the Horn When Locking a Car?

    My alarm chirps on every push of the fob, once when I arm it and twice when I disarm it. If someone happens to be near the car when i arm or disarm so be it. If it scares them so be it. They can go home and complain about it on the internet for all I care. LOL.
