High milage 2019 Yaris that is manufactured by Mazda. Iv'e been trying to chase this down for some time now with no luck. Current mileage is 197k. Car has an intermittent long crank before it will start. Here is a list of what I have tried: *COP's checked with multimeter *Spark plugs have been...

Hoping someone can help me out with this. I'm not having any luck searching the inter web trying to find a filter that is either slight shorter or longer than what this Wix filter is. I have plenty of room to use a much longer one if needed. These Wix filters are about $50 each. Many other...

Love my Smudge Pot. I burned 7 gallons of transmission fluid/used diesel oil mix the other day. For someone who accumulates so much waste oil, this is one of my favorite shop tools. You can make it burn extremely clean with the right venting. This photo is a screen shot of ol' smudgy working...

I hate to do this but I need to get rid of one of the Corolla's. Too many vehicles. Located in Colorado, 30 miles northeast of Denver. 2009 Toyota Corolla LE 214,4xx miles. This is still being driven frequently, so the miles will continue to go up. Clear Colorado title. Gets in the mid 30's...

Looking at the TacSol X-Ring VR - https://www.tacticalsol.com/products/x-ring-vr-rifles/ I have several 22's around the house but not a true tack driver. These caught my eye. Does anyone have one that can provide feedback on the brand. Research is positive from what I can tell.

Looking to replace a vehicle in the fleet. When I was doing some research, Car & Driver rated it #1 in the sub compact SUV market, and it received the Editor's Choice Award. I think it's one of the best looking vehicles in the small SUV market for sure. The Car Care Nut on YT did a review and...

I have a high milage (190k) Yaris that has the Mazda 1.5L engine that is not sold in the states. The car was purchased used approximately a year and a half ago and is in great condition overall. Right after purchasing the car, I did a transmission fluid pan drain and fill, oil change, plugs &...

I really want a 2025 with the slight refresh. Does anyone here have one of these? I know some folks will say it's overpriced, but I live on a dirt road, so a sports car is out of the question. And hey, this is an all-wheel drive SUV :ROFLMAO: .

Figured it wouldn't hurt to replace the valve cover gasket the Corolla. I bought the car with 93k and now I'm over 163k. Every other summer, I run 25% mmo w/ the other 3 quarts being HDEO 15w40 as a slow clean OCI. Not sure how the inside looked when I originally bought the car, but either way I...

Pretty sure I got some fake Denso's on eBay. I installed these eBay Denso Iridum plugs about 65k ago. I recently started experiencing an occasional stumbling under light engine load/acceleration. I figured it was time to replace the valve cover gasket anyway so it was a good time to check the...

I like their products but the prices have really gotten out of hand so I am officially done with them. What are your thoughts? 4 -10 ounce cans of Silikroil for $99.99...

Never owned a Mazda before. The CX-30 has caught our eye. Perfect size for our needs and the ground clearence is decent at 8". Consumer reports seem to be very good for them. We were looking at a Subaru Crosstrek but not a fan of the Subaru CVT. This seems like a solid competitor and the overall...

Thinking of looking at one of these. I tow under 7k a hand full of times a year. I really don't need my F250 for what I use it for. I like the impressive torque on these engines as I run up I-70 in the CO mountains often. Heck even the base twin turbo would probably be fine. My 2008 Corolla is a...

So am I nuts... My 2019 F250 has 3500 miles on the 15w40 but I just passed the 12 months so the OLM says 0% as designed. I am having a difficult time convincing myself that the oil has to be changed. I'm thinking at a minimum, change it in the spring since I might have 5k on the oil by then...

Diesel oil has been hard to find at the WM's near me. The other day I was buying this at $18.24 and it's now $24.48. I'm lucky to even find any 10w30 diesel in stock around me. My last OCI, I had to go with 15w40 because that's all they even had. Unfortunately I think this will get much worse...

https://www.walmart.com/ip/Super-Tech-Full-Synthetic-SAE-20W-50-V-Twin-Motorcycle-Oil-1-Quart/764346752 I might have to give this a try. Anyone use this yet? Feedback?

Says Low-Emission Diesel on the bottle. Here is what the gallon jug looks like. Is this bottled by Warren? Anyone running this? I haven't seen a current PQIA for this CK-4 version...

I'm getting tired of the V-Strom these days. I really just want something that still has good power if I need to use the highway to get to the trails. I don't want a 450 enduro since they are very limited on fuel capacity. I'm not small at 6'1 250 so I need some power too. Does anyone have feed...

Happens every time I fill up. If I set the fuel lock on the pump, when it fills up I get several ounces that spill down the side of the vehicle? What's the problem?
