Have you ever been told that you may overthink things?

I with that it was a twin but they don't do that much anymore since singles are cheaper to produce but I like it. Have you taken it for a test ride?

I agree with you. My go-to OPE oil when I lived in Florida was Mobil1 15w-50 and it served me well but after I moved to New England I had to rethink that. I still use the Mobil1 for my summer engines like mowers but I'm not thrilled with the T6 either and I'm on the hunt for something else.

The new smart chargers are great but be aware that there can be instances with a discharged battery that a smart charger just shuts down and won't charge it. I have run across this on several occasions. More than once I have been able to resuscitate an old discharged battery with an old...

Halfbacks. People who move from northern states to Florida and hate it enough to move half way back. :D

Yes. The Florida that people in Michigan have in their heads: The real Florida:

Here's my Florida USAA story. Back around 2010 I replaced my old weathered shingle roof on our Florida home with a new lifetime warranted metal roof. One of the selling points was that the new roof would lower the insurance premiums because it was less likely to be damaged in a storm. So...

The training wheels were delivered and installed. They seem to be of nice quality and I like the fact that they have large pneumatic tires and are mounted in a central location on the bike as opposed to the tiny little training wheels on the rear axle of bicycles many of us had as kids. Now all...

I don't know anything about lightning strikes and that has never been a concern. Asphalt shingles begin to deteriorate the day after they are installed and almost never live up to their warranty. Like tires, they are pro-rated and you can plan on replacing it before it reaches its projected...

I will never put asphalt shingles on a house that I own.

Agreed, I went so far as to zip-tie the trigger on my Simpson so if it's running it's spraying. I just put my foot on the handle while I start the engine. It's a residential unit with the Honda GCV190 and it's been fine for about a decade in typical homeowner use.

How old is the car? If it's carbureted I'd just pour a little two stroke gas down the throat before starting it then let it run a bit before changing the oil.

We are doomed.

No links to fuel dilution threads?

We have the same vehicle and I agree with ATex. Toyota specs a 10,000 mile OCI and I have been changing it at 5000 just like every other car that I own.

This is my almost bought a new tool story. My 25ish year old Allied 3.5 ton Chinese floor jack was leaking so badly that even Viagra couldn't keep it up. Groan. The comparable replacement at HF was $240 so I took it apart to have a look and was able to fix it (at least for now) with a 79...

I ditched my Rhino ramps after this happened last summer.

Promotional what?
