Cast iron seasoning

I also finally replaced the valve cover gasket on my 1990 Mazda B2200. I thought y’all would appreciate the valve train pics. That’s 34 years (and 2 sets of valves, 4 sets of the tiny little hydraulic lifters, seals etc over the years. ) Run all its life on Redline 5W40 full synthetic or...

Non auto chores. Namely firing up my big 75,000 BTU propane burner, and seasoning a lot of large cast iron Dutch ovens, Afrikaans cast iron Potjie pots. Can’t do it in the apt , too much smoke,,burning crisco smell , it’s bad to breath in, esp for the house cats. Stove fan does nothing to vent...

1990 Mazda B2200, over 1, 373, 345 plus KM’s on it. 75% highway, 15% off-road/FSR, 10% city. Has never had short trips under 50 Km . Redline 5W40 full synthetic or LiquiMoly synthetic all it’s life, coolant change every year, etc etc I got the original brass / aluminum radiator, the top brass...

Ooooh I like that. Thanks for posting ! On my shopping list

New here, not new to vehicle maintenance. Curious why anyone would let their brake or clutch fluid go so long? I flush all my trucks brake lines / reservoirs about every 3 months, but they also see extreme severe duty. Brake / clutch fluid is cheap. Even the synthetics. Only takes a few...
