Has anyone else noticed 2 cycle oil disappearing from stores that used to sell it? Not big box, but Conveniences stores, pharmacies, and grocery stores, for example, don't carry it now in many cases where they did not long ago. Have noticed this beginning about the last year or two ago and seems...

Hello, Looking to get a Supertech oil filter for '19 Dodge Grand Caravan. Can't seem to find the number for the filter to use. In the Walmart store, no info. at all to look it up (the little electronic filter finder is now gone and no hard copy references either) and can't find it online. Ccan...

Doing an oil change with full synthetic 5W-20 today, I find after putting in 5 qts of the new oil, I am about a half a quart from completely full. I would like to top it right to the "full" line, as usual. The vehicle, a 2019 Dodge Grand Caravan, calls for 5W-20. Problem is, I am out of any more...

Greetings I am trying to find a good way to carry a canoe on a 2019 Dodge Grand Caravan SXT. It has "roof rails" I guess you call them, that run the length of the roof on both sides, no crosspieces. I'd like to get a good "roof rack" or whatever it takes to work with this vehicle to carry a...

Hello, With the 2019 Dodge Grand Caravan, it says E85 gasoline can be used. Would it make sense to use this fuel, vs regular 89 octane unleaded gasoline? I don't just mean for economy, but would it affect engine longevity in a negative way to use this fuel? I know its specified and should be OK...

When I start the engine, the oil light comes on and stays on as i idle and start to move. at this point, i stopped the engine, and waited a few seconds and restarted the engine. The oil light came on at startup and goes off right away like usual, after turning the engine off and restarting it...

Just had the front struts replaced. Is an alignment needed? I have generally heard, "yes," but want to ask here. Drives fine, no vibration or anything unusual noticed in driving. The vehicle is a 2004 Chrysler Town and Country minivan. Thanks for any advice.

Want to upgrade my vehicles from standard headlight bulbs to brighter bulbs; thinking of Sylvania Silver Star Ultra. Would doing so pose any problem to vehicles electrical system? Vehicles are: 2004 Chrysler Town and Country minivan and 2013 Dodge Dart. Thanks for comments.

I want to put some coolant in the overflow tank on a 2007 Subaru Outback. I look around for what coolant is OK to use, and find Pentofrost A2 can be used for this car make and year, according to their website. Then I see on the container it says not to use with other coolants. The coolant in the...

What is the proper antifreeze/coolant to use in the cooling system for this vehicle? Yes, there is the dealer Mopar brand, but I am looking for something from an autoparts store for hopefully less cost. Also, not 50/50 mix, but the "concentrate." Thanks for any experiences and suggestions.

Asking what is the factory recommended motor oil for this vehicle? I do not have an owners manual for guidance on this recently purchased pre-owned vehicle. Thank you for any information.

Tell me if this seems quite right: my time for an oil change indicator chime and light comes on on the dashboard, at 4300 miles. Doesn't this seem too soon? Car had mix of highway and rural driving, very little idling during those miles (over 4 1/2 months of use). I am wondering if perhaps the...

Question pertains to a 2004 Chrysler Town and Country Touring minivan (3.8L) engine: What is automatic transaxle fluid change mileage recommendation? Vehicle has 115K miles on it, and don't know if its ever been done. Its used in mostly country and highway driving, little to no city drives nor a...

I have a 2007 Dodge Caliber SXT with 4cyl., 2.0 liter engine that specs 5W-20 oil, which is what I have been using. Would 0W-20(synthetic) oil be all right to use, as it seems to be a superior oil, at least in cold starts/cold weather? I am thinking 0W-20 may not have been on the market when...

This one seems a bit odd: While driving out in cold weather today, about 10degrees, after the temp. gauge got most of the way to normal, I turned on the heater fan with heat controls on max and the air coming out of vents was at most lukewarm, not really warm. This was a first; prior to this, it...

Hello, On a 1993 Jeep Grand Cherokee, I am having a problem with the battery getting drawn down when it is turned off, and seems to have something to do with a security system. Here's what happens: turn off the vehicle. go to start it the next morning, and doesn't have enough juice to start, and...

In this very cold winter, i.e. mornings about 5 above to about 5 to 10 below zero, the temperature gauge on my 2007 Dodge Caliber 2.0 engine takes about almost 20 miles to get up to its normal operating temperature, which is about one noth below midline. It warms up to that temperature a lot...

whats the correct wrench size for the oil pan drain plug on a 2004 chrysler town and country minivan ?(3.8 liter engine).

Lately, the oil warning light and warning chimes have come on at engine idle (like when stopping at a red light). They go out as soon as rpm's climb past idle. The vehicle is a 1998 Plymouth Grand Voyager with 3.3liter V-6 engine with 205K miles. I know the mileage is high, but oil use is...

Hi, Couldn't find better place on the forum to ask this, so here it is: For general lube use, where you would use 3 in 1 oil, how does MMO compare? For instance, two general examples: oiling pump up on Coleman lantern and stoves; or lubing door hinges.
