I have an Anti-Freeze funnel that works great for catching the oil filter drippings and directing them to the catch pan. It works well on both the Envoy and the Grand Prix. I still get some on the sway bar and undercarriage, but it's nothing a shop towel can't handle.

I've had no engine issues with my 98 GT that is currently at 114,000 miles. I've run GC, Amsoil S2k, Amsoil ATM, Mobil 1 and Royal Purple. My best UOA came from GC, but they all were fine really. Two miles per gallon form the u0bend? I've never heard of that type of result. The u-bend is...

The only other vehicle I hated as much in regards to changing oil was the 1992 Saturn SL2. It's a horizontally mounted filter right above the steering rack. There was no way to not make a mess.

It's the inline 6. Seven quarts of oil in that bad boy...

The change oil soon light finally came on in the Envoy after 11,000 miles. I've previously run a 10,000 mile interval with Mobil 1 and LC and had a good report from Blackstone. I forgot how evil that filter is. It is mounted above the front sway bar and there is no place for leverage. Add in...

You would think that after five years, we would be able to feel safer and not have to worry about those dangerous Aquafina bottles you can't carry onto a plane.

For OTC stuff, Mother's Carnauba Cleaner Wax is great.

It was on one night as we were going to bed. I pointed out some of the actors and made my wife (age 30) guess who they were. Nice movie.

Wow...a lot of tinfoil hats around

I've had Craftsman tools for almost 20 years. I've used a 1/2" ratchet as a hammer, screwdrivers as chisels and pry bars and extensions as punches. I've only gone through two ratchets (1/4" and 3/8", both with stripped gears) a few screwdrivers and a few sockets. I wouldn't hesitate to buy...

I laughed at that one.

We just got our second Sirius receiver today. houston radio is terrible, so I took advantage of a good offer to get a new unit for my car.

I remember runing 20W-50 in my 305 Monte when the rings were going out. I'd go with Dino 10W-30. Snce uop are changing out the engine, I don't think you need to go too crazy.

I've run nothing but 30 weight oils in the Grand Prix and the Envoy. It's aleays been Amsoil, Amsoil S2k, Mobil 1, GC, or Royal Purple. I've gotten great results in oil analysis and my 109,000 mile 3.8L GP engine is clean as a whistle on the inside. I think it's time to find yourself a new...

Brons...They were only available at the start of 2005, end of 2004. They expire in less than a week, so I need to do some more shopping.

I bought a bunch of the Pep Boys calendars that had the Buy 3 Get3 Free coupon in them. So, with Mobil 1 Rewards and the coupon, I've been paying about $2.xx per quart. That's why I'll be sticking to that stuff for a while. I only have a few days of that coupon left, so I have to find a Pep Boys...

My thoughts are with you as well. I wish you only the bet during her recovery.

Just a matter of personal pride in knowing I'm taking care of something. Just because i won't be driving it in a few years doesn't mean I should screw the guy driving it after me.

A cap wrench would give better leverage. I also might just give that drilling idea a try next time.
