What is the best head gasket sealer additive? I have seen some that are $40 a bottle, and some that were $3. I know the best thing to do is to replace the head gasket. I am not sure if one of my head gaskets is leaking. I think there might be a small one-way leak that only allows combustion...

How do you load test a motorcycle battery? Do you use the same load tester as an automotive battery? Since they are smaller, I thought there might be a different method.

Do you know of any oddball forums on the internet (besides BITOG), or have you run across one accidentally? I just found this Pen Turning forum while doing a search for a red colored wood stain. They have some nice pictures of pens. http://www.penturners.org/photos/index.php?c=1

http://www.newser.com/story/159059/feds-...ampaign=rss_3_2 Ernest Hemingway's old house that is now a museum cannot let cats run around at night on the property. The odd part is that the federal government got involved. They claimed that because people from out of state go to the museum...

I was looking at the cheap USB endoscopes (borescopes) on ebay. Has anyone used one of these? It is the small 7mm type. I want it small so it can fit into spark plug holes to look in the cylinders. I could also put this through the throttle body and look at the tops of the intake valves for...

I was wondering if submarine sonars really made those sounds you hear in the movies. I looked on line and found this website. http://www.uboataces.com/ref-sounds.shtml I think it would drive someone crazy to listen to that all day long, and night to. Listen to the depth charges as they get...

What is your opinion on Wood versus Fiberglass handles on hammers, axes, sledgehammers, etc? For some reason I like the look and feel of wood handles better, but they don't seem to last as long as fiberglass handles especially when you miss what you want to hit.

I was just looking through the grease section on the Schaeffer website. The information for the #229 Ultra Red Supreme Grease said: "**Due to its superior cohesive and adhesive properties Ultra Red Supreme is not recommended for use in passenger car automotive wheel bearing applications." What...

I saw a can of CRC motor treatment at PepBoys today. It was next to, and looks like, SeaFoam and the STP additive. It was expensive just like the other two additives it was trying to copy. It has the same main ingredient as Seafoam, but it has mineral spirits and buto something ethanol...

I bought some AC-Delco Durastop rotors for my truck. I thought they would be made in North America: Either Canada or at least Mexico. They are labeled "Made in China." Durastop is suppose to be AC-Delco's top of the line brake part stuff. When I first got my truck I saw a lot of AC-Delco rotors...

On newer (GM) vehicles, you are suppose to use new head bolts every time you remove the cylinder heads. I understand they are suppose to stretch, but why can't you reuse them? If they stretch past their elastic limit (or whatever it is called) wouldn't they be no good even when new?

Are there any (California) laws stating the minimum amount of light you must have on your bicycle while riding at night? This would be for both head and tail lights. I have an old Vetta headlight, but the mount broke and I can't find a replacement. I didn't feel like buying a new bike light...

Is there an easy way to increase alternator output (amps) myself cheaply? The only thing I can think of is to get a smaller pulley to increase the units RPM. Can more windings , or stronger magnets increase the output?

I wasn't sure where to post this question. I was wondering if all oils lubricate, or reduce the amount of friction between two parts. I have noticed that thicker oils and grease gives the appearance that friction is increased on very light parts, but those oils and greases must reduce friction...

I remember someone posting a link where some guy was trying to make a SeaFoam alternative by using Diesel fuel. I was looking around the Hy-per Lube website and noticed the had a "TOTAL FUEL SYSTEM CLEANER." I looked at the MSDS and 80-90% of the ingredients is Diesel fuel #2. The MSDS says this...
