I bought a lightly used Toro super recycler lawn mower a few years ago and changed the oil and air filter since they were dirty. The engine is a 190cc OHV. I left the spark plug alone since it started in 2-3 pulls and ran fine. I took the spark plug out over the weekend to check it since I...

I ordered two of the current oil + filter change specials from Autozone and received 2 different manufacturers oil filters. See pics below: This is the filter that is actually shown online at autozone’s website. I am guessing this one is old stock and the other filter in my other thread is...

Back in November, I was rear-ended in my 2007 Mazda3 which resulted it to be declared a total loss by my insurance company. I was now in a position where I needed a new car in this modern (overpriced) car market. I had made a post a while back about a VW GTI and was planning on replacing my...

With 95K miles on my Mazda3, I decided to try some Techron Complete Fuel System Cleaner for the first time because ,"why not, it can't hurt anything". Since adding the 10oz bottle it to a full tank of fuel (13 gallons), the engine now vibrates much more in idle and badly in idle with the A/C on...

With my Mazda 3 nearing 16 years old and being the original owner, I've been eyeing a few cars as a new replacement. The new 2022+ Mk8 Volkswagen GTI has caught my eye and I like the styling, engine HP and torque ratings, and fuel economy rating. I've done some research online about the engine...

Hello, I recently replaced the brake master cylinder (it was leaking from the rear near the firewall) on my 84 Rx7 with a brand new unit. Now, the new unit I replaced it with now looks like it is weeping brake fluid from the same area as the old one! I installed the new unit without bench...

I inherited this charger thing from my grandfather. Google searches turn up nothing. It doesn't look like it was ever used, and I don't know how to use it. All I found was that "Boat US" was a magazine so I guess he ordered it from a magazine. He had a sailboat at one time. Can anyone explain to...

The tires on the passenger side both front and rear of my Mazda 3 are wearing out at a faster rate than the driver side tires. All tires are wearing evenly, just that the passenger tires are wearing faster. I had an alignment when I bought the current tires, around 15k miles ago, never hit...

These are the OEM spark plugs from my 2007 Mazda 3 with 2.3l engine. The plugs have 68k miles with the last 45k miles using 2 cycle oil in the gas at approximately 1oz per 5 gallons, usually a little more. Look pretty good to me, gap was exact across all 4 at .050. I hope this debunks the...

Has anyone increased their push/self propelled mower's engine RPM? From reading online, it seems like 21 inch blade mowers are limited to around 3000 RPM for "safety" reasons. Some say that raising the RPM to 3600 is a more ideal running speed for mowers to properly mulch grass clippings. Has...

This filter is from my 2007 Mazda 3 with the 2.3l engine. The engine has 63K miles. Filter was run for two 7000 oil changes which took two years. Looks like a well made sturdy filter. I have another one and will continue with the 2 oci's per filter. (It's a pita to change the oil filter on this...

This is the factory Denso air filter with 131,000 miles. Replaced with a Parts Master air filter (relabeled Wix). Vehicle is a 2002 Camry with the 2.4 four cylinder. The car is my mother's. She says gas mileage may have improved, I don't know, I don't drive it. It's hard to tell from the pic...

After getting my mower up and running again, I spliced in a fuel filter along with new gas line. This is a simple gravity fed carb and this filter does not restrict the flow of gas. The filter is a Parts Master 73011 aka Wix 3011. The inlet and outlets are 1/4 inch. I picked it up for

Hey guys, I need some help troubleshooting why my lawnmower will not start. The engine is a '06 Briggs 6.75 with a primer-bulb. I changed the oil a few days ago by tipping it with the exhaust facing down, filled it with oil and it started up and ran just fine. A few minutes later, I decided to...
