    Another mower was adopted today by me

    Those engines are extremely reliable ! I would run some 15w40 in it and run it I wouldn't be surprised if the smoking quit.

    Changed Brakes on my own, creaking noise is still there!!

    I wonder if some of the coating from the rotors glazed the pads a bit ?? caliber binding or sticking ?

    Crazy to consider a high mileage Ford Flex Ecoboost?

    Water pump already done one good thing. p.t.u couple of drain and fills and hope for the best with it. 200k on motor real risky. This is like going to the casino you don't often win. But for 2k maybe if it runs and drives well ????

    New 2026 F150 5.0 V8 engine oil and filter recommendations?

    naaa to many variables on the fills of 5w30 and the 10w30 again was only summer driven so the 10w probably didn't effect anything on the 75 degree plus cold starts . My thinking the 10w may be more shear stable under stress of high heat and load ??

    New 2026 F150 5.0 V8 engine oil and filter recommendations?

    In my 2015 I ran 0w20 5w20 5w30 and 10w30 . Always a summer driven car so I never noticed a drop of any measurable amount in fuel milage and one of my highest recorded tanks was on 10w30 . I found the engine seemed to run a bit more on the quiet side on the 5 and 10w30 and I never developed the...

    When to replace an "old" car....

    So nobody here knows the car better than you do ! Do you feel it can make the 1800 miles safely and be relatively reliable while she is away ? I feel your pain if it was my daughter I would be highly concerned as well. For me the oil leak would not be a big concern take care of the vibration...

    HIPA tune-up kit for Honda GCV160

    I would stick with Honda parts ! spark plug is likely of questionable quality as well as the filters.

    Do people park backwards in parking spaces where you live?

    I back into most parking spaces now because of idiots ! around here they treat parking lots and garages like race tracks . Park between two trucks and try and back out I creep out slowly and they fly by laying on the horn most intelligent drivers see you backing out and will stop to let you...

    Thinking about a 2019+ Ford Edge or other SUV in the large compact/small midsize range

    Lincoln MKX can be found at decent prices ! and good for larger framed person. depending on year most came with the 3.7 we have two and have been more the happy with them . Service p.t.u and monitor water pump. otherwise they will run forever.
