    My Own Redline SI-1 Test

    I don’t think you can get better fuel economy if you haven’t first lost fuel economy. The claims always state; “Improves Fuel Economy”, when it should state that the product could return fuel economy to normal(for your vehicle).

    Battery tester accuracy?

    IDK so this is of no help or answer to your question. I typically do my parts shopping shop at AAP. So now & again I’ll stop in to have my older car batteries tested for free. Usually the batteries show to be in good shape. Then I will drive directly across the street to AZ and have them do...

    SuperTech 20w-50 at local Walmart

    I have a 5 qt jug of CarQuest/FRAM 20W50 that a buddy gave me. I use it for adding to the Firebird’s crankcase should need be during the season. Also, I mix with lower grade oils from the cars oils and use it in the OPE. I’ve mixed it in another jug of Frankenbrew(0W20, 5W30, 10W30/40). I don’t...

    Project Farm tests Walmart and O'Reilly batteries

    I for one appreciate PF’s hard work on all of his testing, video & editing. I don’t take any of it as gospel, just a guideline. But he certainly gets an “A” for effort and I don’t have to do anything except sit back with a hot beverage and watch and FF through the parts that I don’t want to...

    Project Farm tests Walmart and O'Reilly batteries

    We now have O-O-O-O’Reilly’s not far from me. I’ll have to check them out. I’d like to see more testing on other group size batteries. I mean, we know that the group 65 is better but what about others?

    I can't work on my cars anymore.

    I’m doing less & less on my vehicles. However I am also keeping my vehicles for shorter periods as well. I still do oil changes and brakes and maybe the occasional sensors/solenoids but I don’t want to do suspension or exhaust work any longer.

    $30 reward on 10 qts Pennzoil Ultra Platinum Feb 1 - Aug 31, 2026

    FYI TIP If the rebate is in the form of a gift card, elect for the physical card as the virtual cards don't have a bar code for stores to scan. I made the mistake of getting the virtual card and no one would/could use it. It's a real hassle. Not WAL-MART, TARGET, Home Depot, Gas Stations, Auto...

    assisted stranger; she was unfamiliar with new hybrid CR-V

    Right! A dead 12v battery could cause issues however, the 12v battery was good and accessories were on(DRL, dash lighting, radio etc.)

    assisted stranger; she was unfamiliar with new hybrid CR-V

    No, she did not drive away because her husband was on his way. I assume that she would tell him what I had mentioned to her. And I wasn't going to stay until he showed up as I needed to get groceries(meat, dairy, frozen products) home and I didn't know exactly when he would show up.

    assisted stranger; she was unfamiliar with new hybrid CR-V

    ^^^ Correct! She didn't try to drive the vehicle because the gas engine didn't start.

    assisted stranger; she was unfamiliar with new hybrid CR-V

    It was July 27th and over 80 degrees F. I was leaving the grocery store only to see a woman with the hood UP on her new '26 CR-V Hybrid. She claimed that the engine won't start and her husband was coming to jump the battery. I asked if I could help! She told me that the car was stuck in...
