    Why do people strongly opine about topics they know nothing about?

    Most people do not do any research; they just follow the crowd. It's been proven many times on bitog.

    check out any Farm type store, I believe Citgo still markets a #30 non-detergent. for most applications a general #30 even if is a Api oil or whatever will work fine, what exactly is this for?

    Vevor Tools - What Is Your Experience?

    Personally I do not like buying tools, unless I see them, and examine them, , mostly in a store is best for me. Vevor reminds me of Harbor Freight Pittsburg stuff, a rather marginally sort of useful tool. there are better tools in a retail box type store that's better than Vevor.

    Snap-on tool prices are out of sight.

    Quinn is actually good tool brand with lifetime warranty (in store) , plus a whole set. Sort of a no brainer, Gear Wrench is a great set also, and is magnetic,,,,,,,,,,,. use some di-electric grease on the inside of socket rubber so it slides off nice and easy, if you are using non magnetic socket.

    looks good, no reason not to use this filter, probably better than most on the market, other than the Purolator one filter that may have a more fine filtering media.

    Snap-on tool prices are out of sight.

    for the price of Snap on, I think of buying something else, even store brand tools (Kobalt, Master Force, Huskey, etc) in my observation are very decent, Harbor Freight have various tools worth buying, Snap on is just too pricey. They only cater to the elite crowd, (other tool truck brands )...

    Heavy Truck Driveline U-Joint Requires Grease Spec 0-634-B (1%-3% Moly)

    over greasing can also cause problems, as it can be hard on seals, plus clean your zerk fittings is a good idea ,pumping in slowly is also good, and to note power grease guns can do damage to seals if used improperly.

    Restaurant adding things to your bill.

    I just don't patronize these types of establishments, GO ELSEWERE .Maybe the people who own the place could pay the employees better rather than begging for tips.
