I have an 1983 El Camino that I bought new. At 270K miles it still has the original muffler & tail pipe. The cat was replaced at about 180K. Almost everythings else has been replaced but the exhaust is still good.

I prefer Marmite by a long shot over Vegemite. You can get it at the same store. I had to stop using Marmite because it is extreamly high in purines and if you have gout like I do you cannot tolerate lots of purines. lefty

Oil Temp Coolant Temp Transmission Temp MPG The main reason I got the scan gauge is to monitor the EOT/ECT. It is a 6.0 Ford Diesel and the diff between the oil & coolant portends a problem with a plugged oil cooler. I really like the device.

Thanks for the replys. The laptop is HP dv6,15.6 led with Intel CoreI5,4GDDR3 ram. Has intel HD graphics and 500G HD. It is probably more machine than I need but you never know, Lefty

I just got a new HP laptop and I have heard several opinions about charging the battery. Some say leave it in and plugged in all the time and others say take it out when it is fully charged. I will be using the computer plugged in most of the time. It works fine with the battery removed. It is...

That looks like a Scotch Bonnet pepper. They are extremly hot. Check it on google.

The Walmart in Bakersfield CA has Rot 10-30 all the time. I use it in two cars and my lawnmower. It cost almost $12 a gallon but you get what you pay for. I use the Rot 15-40 in my 6.0 Powerstroke unless I go to Colorado in the winter then I use the Rotella 5-40.

My 96 LeSabre with the 3.8 Series 2 had a coolant leak that ended up being the plastic intake warped and started leaking. It has never been hot so I dont know why it warped. Parts guy said almost all of the 3.8 mainfolds leak at one time or another. Of course mine only had 150K on it so I guess...

I have 96 Le Sabre with the 3.8. The oil pressure switch started leaking really bad. There was oil all over the place. Tried several aftermarket switches and ended up getting the GM OE switch before it worked right. The Oil was running down in the area of the filter. First thing I tried was...

Does anyone know what company packages this oil for Kragen/O''Reilly? The way the label reads it sounds like Formula Shell.

I know a farmer/contractor that uses Delo 30wt in everything. He has 7 or 8 detroit 60,s and 9 or 10 JD tractors of various sizes. He uses it in his F150 and F350 P/U,s and his personal autos. He tells me multi grade is not required in the mild weather we have in the San Joaquin valley. None of...

83 El Camino. I have one that seemed hard to come off the fast running after it warmed up. My mechanic finally found the secondary was hanging up and causing the high speed . It runs good now with that cleared up. Mine has a second engine in it and only 120K on the new Mr Goodwrench.

I know a contractor/farmer that runs Delo 30 in all of his machinery.About 10 class 8 tractors(Detroit 60) and 10 or so John Deere. He has done this for many years and has never had an engine problem. I ask him why not 15/40 in all those diesels and he said dont need it. It is also very warm...

I keep seeing remarks about ecotec engine. What is it. Thanks Lefty

OEM is not always a sure thing. On the same buick the A/C comp went bad. Replaced it with OEM(Korea) and it was bad. The second one from GM(Korea) worked fine. Maybe I just have a hard luck car or I have kept it too long. It only has 173K. LeftyLefty
