I had 4 Conti Extreme DWS, 225/40/18 installed this morning, and the car now pulls hard to the right. I had them swap the tire's/wheels location 3 times, rebalance, double check psi to no avail. I then headed over to the alignment shop for a four wheel alignment. The shop said my car was...

Alright guys, I have a 2006 Mazda3 2.3 that came equipped from the factory with a cartridge style oil filter. A popular Mazda3 mod, is to convert the 2.3 cartridge filter, to the Mazda3 2.0 spin on filter. The conversion uses all OEM Mazda parts, and only the filter housing is changed. My...

For those of you who might know, how can Torco SR-1 5w-20 have a rather low operating viscosity of 7.34, but a rather high HTHS rating of 2.9? What does this tell us about the oil? It just seems to me that most of the oils that have a high HTHS, also have a high viscosity as well. I've been...

I forgot how to read Valvoline's date code, does anybody remember how? There used to be several threads about this, but since the "search feature" is about as helpful as asking 3 monkeys to balance my checkbook, I can't find them. My bottle says: "K225H" I think that the "K" is the month...

If you are looking for a product that can treat leather, vinyl, plastic and rubber and leave them all with no greasy/slick/shinny "film", than Nano Protectant is what you're looking for. I tried this stuff, and it leaves my black leather and black dash/interior with a nice "dull" satin finish...
