I'm doing an oil change on neighbors 4Runner in the morning before they go visit family with issues. I would have preferred to get the factory Toyota YZZA5 but not an option at this point. Maintenance light is already on, no clue how long. Last OCI was in August, not sure on mileage but they are...

I'm going to replace the PCV valve in my daughters CRV. No clue if it was done at any point. I have no oil burning issues in it just doing an extra PM since it does have 229k on it, it's not expensive, and not hard to get at. The PCV is threaded into the motor by intake area. Do I need to use...

I was at Sam's today and they had a table full of all different ones. All had 10/23 and 12/23 dates. I might go back for a 24F or 24F AGM for the Accord. I'll check in the morning with tester again after sitting all night. I have a 51R in the Accord now but plan to get the battery tray etc. for...

In the morning I'm doing an oil change on future daughter-in-laws '21 Tucson SE AWD. It has 17,700 miles on it and the 2.0L GDI, no turbo. My plan right now is to use PP 5W-30 Euro L. Manual recommends 5W-20 for best fuel economy (and what is on the cap). Manual also lists 5W-30 for the same...

I posted in the cleaners thread also with more pictures but here are a couple. 3k on filter/oil, 227k on the CRV. Doesn't look bad to me.

Harbor Freight compressor I have one of these in each of my cars. Works pretty quickly if needed, used it many times, normally to help others. I grab one of the small plug kits and keep it in the nice little bag with it.

Had to cut up a branch that fell during some winds. Choices of electric HF chain saw, Milwaukee 18V pole saw, Milwaukee Sawzall with pruning blade, hand saw....or dads late 70's early 80's Craftsman. I think it's a Homelite from when I had to work on it. Hasn't been started in about 1 year but...

Link to post in penetrants section. RF caliper locked up. Unknown if bad caliper or bad hose and causing brake to stay really hot messing up caliper if it even works that way. Caliper was only 2 years/14k miles old, both fronts were done at that time with Raybestos Element3 rotors/calipers/pads...

I didn't mark it down so 95% it was M1 AFE. Otherwise it would be PP 0W-20. Pilot does see a lot of short trip as wife works less than 2 miles from home. Long Island, NY and metro area to Bridgeport CT so even trips see a lot of slow traffic. Oil filter is Honda 15400-PCX-004 (for S2000) with a...

I have not seen wear like this before. The edges are are actually shiny polished. The story to go with them. These are on the back of my neighbors 2019 Toyota 4Runner. I checked the air pressure and they were at 44 psi, door sticker calls for 32 psi. Further investigation one has a 2015 date...

2003 Sequoia needs a new battery, picking it up tomorrow morning. Currently in the truck is a 9.5 year old Optima D31A but failed to start the other day (kids listening to music). I recharged with a CTEK charger made for AGM's. It's working but cranking slow so it's time. Correct size for truck...

Friend is getting rid of some stuff with house being sold in a not happy split. Trying to get some approximate value. Short of the it's only worth what somebody wants to pay. All garaged stuff that looks like it was washed/waxed after every use. Doesn't want to CL advertise it. 2001 JD LTR166...

Based on the many positives I’ve read here at BITOG, I bought 2 cans each of Ceratec and M02S. Is the Ceratec and M02S compatible? Will one keep the other from doing what it is supposed to do since Ceratec is every like 30k vs. every OIC on M02S? Any conflict with M1 HM? I’m thinking extra...

Currently I have an '07 Sonata 2.4L with 102k on it and an '03 Sequoia with 4.7L with 98K. Both vehicles have been on M1, PP and PU since about 3k miles of life. OCI's are at about 7500, filters have been Factory or PureOne. Currently neither burns or leaks oil. Both have had multiple UOA's that...

Probably covered many times but I couldn't find it. My past experience was with regular Techron vs. BG44K. Always used Techron 3-4 times/year never noticed any difference figured I was maintaining clean. Used BG44K after mechanic had done full BG treatment on a different vehicle getting rid of...
