This was from a 20 or 21(I wasn't the one working on it) DT Ram, 3.6. Came in for noise in engine. Yep bad lifter/cam noise in right bank. Look at oil.....oops, none on stick. No sticker on windshield, change oil warning on dash. Ask cust, when last change was, come to find out, it only had 2...

This one is a 22 truck, with 2k on it. Valve broke off at keeper groove. Piston in pieces, rod broke in 3 pieces. Second one in 3 months, last one was a 21 6.4 in a Car, also low miles. It also dropped valve but never looked close to see where valve broke on that one. Don't remember last time I...

After mulling it over for 2 years finally picked up a Cub ZTS2 54in . This to replace my Simplicity 2011 46in rider. Should be a nice upgrade! Has the 24hp Kohler on it, and ZT 2800 diffs

Not so sure on the sound, but crazy none the less!

Bought one of these to try at home. Anyone ever try one? And yes I know its just to lift and then put on stands...... https://www.vevor.ca/floor-jacks-c_11489/vevor-triple-air-bag-jack-pneumatic-jack-6600-lbs-quick-lift-heavy-duty-blue-p_010122434460

Id like one of these in a 54in, like say a ZTS2due to my yard slope, and the fact I have to trim around alot. I borrowed brothers ZT2 -50, and while it was ok on slope , hard to trim close to stuff at any speed at all. My question is, how stiff is wheel to turn? My shoulders are getting bad. Is...

Car has 33k(klms) on it now, and used M1 0/16 at 10 and 20k. At 30k used the M1 0/20 EP. No hit on mileage, and its sounds better when you have you foot shoved in it hard. .....not quite as thrashy. Not that it was bad, but its noticeable. I have a few jugs of 0/16 left , so I'll probably use it...

Here is a pic of what I have talked about before. Oil weight/brand, etc wont fix a soft pin. If u look, you can see the rollers ate into the soft pin. After enough clearance , the rollers jam/break, and its all over quick. This is the same as the 3.6 issue. Its a quality issue with the pin or...

Swapped out fluid in the XC last week to this. We bought it at 70k, and it was always a little jerky and erratic by times. Software update helped a bit. I changed it to T4 toyota(yes I know it calls for "ws" spec fluid) at about 150k, it was VERY dark and bad smelling. It was alot smoother, but...

Update to this thread https://bobistheoilguy.com/forums/threads/gm-ecotec-collapsed-crushed-filters.341146/ Changed the oil again, at same mileage. This filter looks mint, no issues at all, so will stick to these.

Who makes these? A decent filter?

Have this thing I need to service. Is the filter a screen or a filter? Any good recs on aftermarket fluid?

I have a 23hp/46in Snapper rider. Deck belt broke tonight. Belt is only about 2.5 years old, 70hrs on it. Belt still looks new, but pulled apart. Was an OEM belt. Is that typical life? I'm a maint. freak, and all pulleys etc are mint. This is the first rider I have ever used so wasn't sure.

Looking to change the fluid in my 2 Volvos, which use the newer "WS"fluid . Aisin lists 2 fluids for this, the the AFT0WS, and AWF+. This is a little strange, as the the AWF+ is a 7.4, while the 0WS , from what I can find is a 5.7? Not sure which fluid to go with or if one is better/newer...

Drained the clean SV75/90 out and put in shockproof light before a track day last weekend, hoping to drop tcase temps a bit, as it runs hot. Roughly 3hr on track/300k klms and it came out looking like this....stuff on filter.....can see the spilled fresh SP blue below in pan. I'll run a few...

What is out there for a good 0w16? Anyone using 0w20? 2021 Prius

Thinking of adding one of these to the garage. Wife and I prob drive 20k miles a year each, and fuel costs are getting high up here in Canada. I have looked at straight EV and hybrid, and want awd, so this seems to be best choice for the price range/size/awd. I also thought of a bolt/prius, but...

Anyone ever use the light shockproof in any PTUs? This is in a Volvo that that gets tracked a bit. Sees no low temps. Factory fill is 75 or 80/90. I switched to SV 80/90. This thing gets HOT, 300f is very common. Probably part of the reason is that it splits power 50/50 in sport mode, so its...

Bought an old 08 XC70 for a third car/winter beater with 300k klms on it last fall. Trans shifted a little off(erratic/hard/soft shifts), and had a couple shift issue codes.. Fluid was nasty as had never been done. Flushed with 20l of trans max, and was good for awhile, but after 15k or so it...

Put a starter on a friends truck today at work. What a nasty way to hide a starter, esp after that many years of salted roads. Expensive job!
