(I love older six pot sports sedans and deplore their demise in favor of SUV's and turbo sport compacts) **Let's imagine perfectly working brand new examples WITHOUT any powertrain issues. which would you choose? 2003 Acura TL Type S VS. 2003 Infiniti I35 Sport package.

They got 18 oz cans at Ollies closeout store for $3.49. I just picked up 2. It's more product than the store brand 14.5oz can at Wally World which is $3:48 per can. Anyone used it?

I hate wastage. Had to throw away quite a few tubes of this stuff over the years, because of big jobs few and far in between. Has anyone ever tried this and had success?

has anyone used these as a preventative part of a coolant change instead of the brown premixed slime sold at the dealerships? Seems like it's made from the same food grade materials that Subaru sells in a bottle...

I just had a tree removed from my front yard because it blocked the sun, blocked my view of the street for security, shed too much sap, etc...etc.. My neighbor said to drill multiple 1" holes in the stump and CAREFULLY pour dirty oil in them to kill the roots and destroy it. Truth or fiction...

I am considering to swap the stock size 18" rims/rubber on my Mitsubishi Outlander Sport for 16" factory wheels/tires from a pre-facelift Eclipse Cross. A. If possible and the lug patterns line up, will this make for a more softer ride and reduced long term wear on the shocks? B. How will...

Has anyone ever tried this product? It's from a well known chemical products brand so I'm curious. It caught my eye because silicone sprays are a dime a dozen and a little messy to apply

Just bought this from Wally world. It says it's oil-based but I know how you're supposed to avoid oils getting on rubber engine belts. My new belt has no markings on it. Would leaving the cam/crank marks on there after install possibly cause a weak point over say....60,000 miles? Is it...

So this was discussed previously here. What exactly is it about the chemistry of the finger indent handle jug (presumably made by Prestone®) that makes it non-preferred vs the Peak® and Zerex® available at the parts box stores? Is it really wise to stay away from it?

My cousins Acura has the wrong coolant type in it. Doing complete flush with 2-3 runs of distilled water after existing coolant drained to remove any corrosion deposits. Should I use this as part of the flush or should I add it to the proper spec coolant mix afterward? Thanks.

I got sprayed while draining due to strong wind gust. Don't want to trash good clothes.

Has anyone tried doing this? Are there subtle differences about internal parts in a Nissan JATCO vs. a Mitsu JATCO? To me it seems like the closest Non OEM J4 fluid substitute that you possibly could argue based on common architecture that is compatible if you were in a warranty claim...

Does anyone know the differences between these two fluids? Could they be interchangeable between the same JATCO units? SCV NS3 on the sheets I noticed a difference in the observed Foaming SEQ II and water content measurements. How significant are those numbers? I'm wondering if I can use the...

This motor I've heard is pretty darn solid if taken care of and has been around almost unchanged since 2007ish? I just got one. What experiences do you guys have?

Anyone used this fluid in a Mitsubishi Jatco unit for J4 fluid? I'm far away from doing my drain and fill, but just curious. According to Amazon reviews, many have used it in problematic Nissans and had success.

Is it ok to use worm drive clamps on this type of hose? As far as the material goes, It has to be one of the toughest hoses with probably the highest burst pressure rating on most cars, but I am concerned about the teeth cutting into the hose overlap on the metal nipple causing a leak. Is it...

Has anyone ever used this with any success on engine bay electrical plugs or even interior electrical connectors? Just wondering if it compares favorably to the CRC cleaner on the parts store shelves. Thanks

Not sure if it's advisable, but could I add the industrial grade solid powder directly to my motor oil on the next oil change interval.

I'm going to be putting in a reman. rack and pinion because the current one is shot. It calls for DEX III/Merc fluid. Is it ok to use a High Mileage version to help condition seals & safeguard against future leaks? Thanks

Looking to buy a brand new radiator from eBay. Over the years I've bought plenty from there. They're cheap, all made in China, and most of them work well for more than 6 years. Sadly, most of them only come with a 30 day return period these days. Who has had experience with the "Add-on"...
