Bought a spare pickup to have around for periodic needs. I've done a lot of searching, haven't found much about the 460. What's your thoughts? It has 131k miles, seems to be in decent condition. Was thinking of running HM Maxlife 10w30... thoughts? Would it be worth it to put something like...

In regards to a truck at work: It's a 2006 Ford F550. V10, 8.0L. For there to be no oil registering on the dipstick, how many qts low does it need to be? It takes 7 qts. Thanks.

Howdy, I was at Wallyworld looking at oil today. They have Delo 400 Syn. Is this fairly new or am I just really slow?? I've never seen it before. Is it similar to Rotella 5w40 syn? Looking for a syn oil for my 05 PSD 6.0L. I was going to go with Amsoil AME, but decided to cancel my order after...

I just bought a 2005 F250, 6.0L. It has 90k miles.. I bought an extended warranty for 3yr, 36k miles. Seems like not many people have much good to say about this motor. Who here actually had problems with this motor themselves? I'm needing my truck to last for several years...

Got a F-250, 6.0L PStroke. Looking at several different Air Intakes. I see the replacement filters are like $70. Is it best to stay stock? I can get an AFE on Ebay for $250. What's everyone's thoughts on what I should do. I don't want to jeopardize my motor by letting any extra dirt in... I'm...

Just bought an F250 with the 6.0L. Has 90k miles. Was curious how many miles these engines are good for? I know, that's a loaded question. I'm aware they had an injecter issue in 03 and they shear oil. Any worthwhile additive for the fuel to help prevent injector issues? I just ordered Amsoil...

I was changing my oil filter in my pickup tonight, got a drop in my mouth. Just a drop, not a pour. tasted nasty. I obviously rinsed my mouth out. Not that I'm a hypochondriac, but is a little drop like that REALLY bad for ones health? Anyone ever get motor oil in their mouth?

Vasectomy. After this next kid is here, I gotta get one. The wife sez I must or no-no anymore. My dad had it and he had to get admitted due to infected, he sez they looked like grapefruit. I break into a sweat just thinking about it. Any here have it? Everything go ok? I'm only 26, so I don't...

I gotta vent. I'm sick of not having a big(ger) savings acct. I make pretty decent money, but we just can't seem to get the account to go up. I know it can take a while but, but jeeeps. My wife stays at home with my two lil ones, plus another on the way. Now, I must say we've been paying a...

I'm going to the memorial tonight for PFC Tom Tucker, one of the soldiers kidnapped and killed last week. My wife was good friends with him. His family and my inlaws are pretty close. It's amazing how this town of Madras has rallied for the family. I know there are a lot of folks that have...

Been getting this at Bi-Mart here in Oregon. It's cheap, about $1.50 a qt. Bought a box for $17. Is it decent oil? I got it for my wife's Windstar.

Anthony Davis, USC running back is having a gastric bypass online live right now. go to www.liteandhope.com pretty cool. Not for the fainty tho..

Protestors I better not see poeple with signs saying that IEDs are Gods punishment to the US because we don't kick out gays. I'm not going into the whole gay thing, that's irrelavent. Cheering at a funeral of a soldier is unspeakably terrible. I'm at a loss for words. All I can say is I hope...

I have a simple multi-meter. I can see the voltage raise when running the engine at the battery, I can't really check for amperage. this is on a 2002 Windstar, it hasn't been starting too well lately, the pregnant wife and two kids almost got stuck at the store yesterday. so, if I see the...

Just got an older murray lawn tractor, it has a 10hp briggs. Am changing the oil on it(imagine that!) It came out black and thick! I was going to just run 10w30 Supertech oil in it, but got thinking. Should I throw some AutoRX in it? What would you do to clean in up inside? It has great compression.

Is it ok to run full syn. when brand new? I just changed it to Amsoil 10w30 from the factory fill. My buddies borrowed the generator cuz he's framing his house....I've heard maybe you shouldn't change to syn. during brake in? It doesn't have a filter, it's just splash lub. and only hold .6ml of...

I'm looking at getting an FMF muffler for my dune buggy. It's says there "repackable" what the heck does that mean?

I've read that these are kinda hokey and that they don't do much of anything for cars. But, I have a 250cc 21hp go kart. It has a pretty restricted air intake. What about adding this: Ebay Electric Supercharger It would only add about 2-3 psi. I could pipe it directly into the carb. Think this...

Got a new dune buggy thing from China. I got it all put together, but I got a problem with it. It idles ok, but when I really step on it, it back fires during decelleration. It pops very loudly. My guess is with the carb. I live at 7k ft altitude here in Flagstaff, AZ my guess is this thing was...
