Could someone who has installed one in a Honda tell me what size to get for the auto transmission and also how they installed it? 5/16, 1/2 , and 3/8 are the options. Which hose do you connect it to... the left or right?

Car has 140K. I have no service records but it looks like a very clean car, meaning not abused. I have noticed that 2nd and 3rd gear rev high before it shifts unless I really go extremely light on the throttle. What would you do to baseline this car's AT? ARX or MMO for a short run then a fluid...

I just got a 99 Altima SE for next to nothing. Trouble is it needs a engine work . One item...the glass moonroof is in need in replacement. Do I need to look just for a 98-01 Altima moonroof? ...or can I get one from another Nissan Sentra or Maxima? Is there Nissan Mechanic who can give me...

I did the drivers side just fine. The drum slipped right off and had the shoes and springs on in 30 minutes. But the passenger side grrrr. This is my second attempt, Sprayed PB blaster thru the lug post holes and on the lip of the hub. I can't move it. Is there a trick/tip to get this drum off?

On an inline 4 cylinder how doable is it to take out the pistons from the bottom? Can you hone the cylinders? Do you need to disconnect the timing chain/belt? Just curious.

I replaced my valvecover gasket and took some pics as promised. This is after 2 full treatments of ARX followed by a 15 minute flush with chemtool. I got the car at 113k. It now has 124k. Observations so far: ARX helped with acceleration and MPG a little. I noticed oil filters were...

Are you sick of the cartridge filter on you Mazda? I would be. I came across this procedure to convert. Let me know what you think. Anyhoo, Here is the link. This guy did the conversion to a spin on. Pics too. http://www.mazda6tech.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=47&Itemid=1...

Okay, the title says it all. I already put Amsoil ATF in the Prizm with good results. I am hesitant to do so on the Matrix. My regimen on the Matrix for now is a 15k drain and fill with OEM T-IV. Cost here is not a factor. (cheap insurance on a big investment IMO) Plan to keep Matrix 10 plus...

63Avanti, Curious if there is any preliminary info on you tests. I like to keep the Matrix 10+ years so preserving the rubber is a big issue IMO. Let us know...

As the subject suggests, I was wondering what your thoughts are on: 1.Using GC on a 2006 Matrix. In view of the a recent TSB that specs 5w-20 for 2006 and newer Toyotas, is it too thick? 2. If so, or independent of that. Would LC thin it? Good combo? How about a mix with MC 5w-20? 3. Any...

Here's a question If you are good about sucking out and filling the MS reservoir three or four times, say during OCIs Would that eventually renew all the fluid? Another words, does the fluid circulate between the slave cylinders and the master cylinder ?

I have a 99 prizm that takes the puniest of filters (ST4967). A friend in the know suggested using an oversized filter specificly an ST3600 or FL-400S during my ARX regimen to capture the extra crud it loosened. Great tip!The big one is wider an 2" longer and seals just fine. That got me...

I just bought a 99 Prizm 3spd auto with 113k on it. I am currently doing a ARX regimen on it. Was wondering what others would suggest for further baselining the motor and tranny etc..Esp like to hear from other 1ZZFE owners but also any suggestions would be most welcomed.

I bought my 99 Prizm 1 month ago after much searching. It was very hard to find a Toyota with a really clean looking oil cap. This one had some varnish and 112K (not bad for here). So I went about baselining it. tune up oil change and Auto-RX. After 1k I added half a quart. no problem. I've put...

I was reading the post on syntec not being a true synthetic since it is Group III oil And I was wondering why not go the ST synthetic route. Some claim it to be a group III equivalent. At a much more attractive price I might add. Any good result? Thoughts?
