    Eagle One " Wax - As - You - Dry"

    Just tried it and it's TERRIFIC. I don't have the desire to hand wax and if I do, I don't keep up with it, so this is very good for those like me. TIP - rather than wiping off. Using my shop vac on blow, after spraying, I blew the liquid wax to spread it evenly across the surface. RESULT -...

    Answer: Change ATF Every Year

    March is the first anniversary of owning my '03 Corolla. Toyota says the tranny does not have to be changed, I did it anyway - an over doer like most of us. Anyway was I glad it did! The old ATF smelled terrible while being drained. When I put new Toyota Type IV in, it seemed to shift smoother...

    Have "Musty" interior smell

    The car is a 2003 Corolla, bought new from the dealer. Does anyone have a good AC cleaner & deoderizer that will work by squirting it down the vents? How about a general interior deoderizer - best if it could restore that "new car smell". FYI, I use 303 on the interior. Thanks for your help...

    Synthetic Fluid for Toyota Matrix XR Auto Tranny

    I went thru this a few months ago and decided to stick with Toyota's Type-IV ATF, because I didn't want to compromise the warrenty. To give the Tranny the "extra protection" - I drain once a year. I posted the same question a few months ago and the replys where Amsoil or Valvoline...

    Which"Mola Brew Fuel" to use?

    Ready to make my first batch of MBF, what recipe would be best? #1 Without Outlaw at 1oz per FIVE gallons of gas #2 With Outlaw at 1oz per TEN gallons of gas Seems to me that the addition of Outlaw DOUBLES the amount of MBF. I drive an '01 Toy RAV4 in South Florida. Thanks for your info.

    Fuel Power & Neutra Fuel Additive - Your results?

    If you're using this fuel combo additive, what has been your experience? Motor cleanliness, increase in gas mileage or anything else. For those adding the Outlaw Octane Booster - same thing. Reasons you chose to add the Octane Booster? FYI, added the LC&#132 (Mola's Brew - Oil) a few hundred...

    How to maintain CV Boots?

    The CV Boots I'm trying to protect are on a Toyota. Don't have to worry about cold problems because we live in S. Florida. We're so cold adverse that we check the temperatures if we have to go North to Orlando. If it's tooooo cold we don't go (have to protect those booties).

    Recommend a T-IV ATF.

    Have an '01 Toy RAV 4, automatic. Doing my first tranny fluid change. The owner's manual says to use (of course) Toyota fluid T-IV. Don't know what this means. Is there a syntectic I can use? Mobil ATF is Dexron-III. Thanks for steering me in the right direction.

    Plastic tube dropped in gas tank-problem??

    About a 4" x 3/8", clear plastic tube dropped into the gas tank. I think it would float and tried to "float it back up the fill tube" but no luck. The car is an '03 Corolla. Do I have to drop the tank and fish it out (go Marlins) or just let it float around until it's time to change the gas...
