Take it in for an alignment after you bolt up the new steering rack. ;>

That's when the acne covered pan nut jockey comes in and shows you a fully packed and filthy fuel filter from a Chevy truck when you drive a Toyota puddle skipper. Enterprising ones will try to blow through it to demonstrate how terrible it is when there's not even a whiff of gasoline on the...

Home made Thermite: Mix 50:50 iron oxide and [REDACTED]. Ignite with a magnesium strip tucked into the heap of Thermite, lit with a propane torch. When the Thermite eats it's easy to China through your driveway, the axle will be cool enough to replace with a new one. .>... Nah, hammering on...

Yeah, that's the spring that tensions and holds the shoe square with the backing plate and prevents it from rubbing up against the drum/ rotor hat. The spring, retainer and "nail" that holds it together is seriously cheap dog kibble money. Without it you can experience not only noise, but...

I dropped my hat and scratched my head when "NickelSil" was a thing and thought it was amazing. Simply keep that oil fresh and topped up though. Rings will chew right through your treated Al block in a heartbeat on a skipped OCI. Electro- coated and sputtered coatings are here and good. Just...

Your P0300's can be many things, beyond the fuel system. But the lean codes also point in the direction of manifold/intake issues. Could also be a MAF issue. First things first in order of cheap to expensive fixes: Replace your air filter. Check all air intake ducts and bands - tighten that...

Yes, yes... I'm not so old that I'm that daft. BUT- Flip the bottle over and read the back. It claims, "Micronized Diamond" content. *shrugs* It did in the past, anyway. I'm thinking that market spin would make people nip the bait.

Yeah, sure. Why not?

Can't touch a synthetic oil change for under $150 for past 3 years now. At a shop of course. Crawling under my own vehicles? Same moolah changes oil on both vehicles for 2 years. Up until I can't crawl under there anymore. #hipsknees&backdamnit>.<#

... to somehow manage to leave cellphone, cards, ID; wallet and keys at home and still drive your wreck to the corner store for a 6 pack and cheap cigars... Only to have to wait until roommate or parent shows up to let you in while nicotine'd to the nines and stumbling drunk. Been there; done...

Didn't Nissan claim to use Micronized diamonds in their VQ series engines for the Murano and the Infiniti Q series engines at some point? Diamonds. World's. Hardest. Most. Abrasive. Form. Of. Carbon? 😱 Edit: She ran just great on Havoline or Mobil-1 synthetic up to 190k when traded...

Beat a nail sideways on concrete with your favorite Warhammer. Gouge it. Scrape it. Rough it madly. Pour your product over it and see if it fills the voids, scratches and damage. I'll wait for your response...

>> >> Any oil chemistry or additive that relies on chlorinated parrifins has no application in ICE applications. Just like particulate TPFE (Teflon) products. In the latter, NASA rejected it on the basis that it can collect in areas that ultimately restrict oil circulation and clog things up...

A buddy of mine had a glitchy dash, clock and radio losing memory, random lights, door dinger at odd times, and randomly dead gages on his Focus along with a dome light that would randomly stay on overnight. It was a pain to figure out over 3 days while blasticating the battery to full roast on...

No issues using the charge posts. As an AGM powered beast? Hook her up and blast it with the AGM cycle on your charger. Full beans. A battery will only really take what it needs unless you force an overcharge situation with an unregulated buzz box charger. In doubt? Check with an ammeter and...

My brother fitted his Subaru projector lamps with LED lights. After the first snow storm he had to drive 60 miles from the city back to the suburbs? He twisted the old halogens right back in. I warned him about the decision, but experience taught him. (Thankfully without casualties) A lamp...

I'm thinking they would really pimp out a mid-80's Olds 442. Or a turbo Buick Grand National. 😍 Or I would bolt them on the front of my Deere LA series lawn tractor. ;>

Honestly? I stopped reading right there. In a word? *No.*

Likely dropped or mishandled in shipping. Did you receive them with cardboard tubes over the threads & tips? I bought OEM spec iridium Denso plugs off "The Rock" for my 6 liter Chevy on clearance 4 years ago. All were straight and gapped as requested. No issues thus far. ($7/piece including...

I drove and painfully kept a Nissan Murano, '03 VQ35DE with CVT on the road for 15 years until traded off. Numerous valve bank position sensors later, and finally a situation where P0420 codes would appear, disappear, reappear...wax on and off without reason... was traded. The CVT was solid on...
