    Collapsed Pure One

    I changed the oil today on Wheel Horse tractor with a 20hp Onan twin. The filter was a Pure One that was in service for 2 years and 38 hours. About 1/3 of the center tube was collapsed. This has made me a little leary of Purolators.

    Got my 2003 Civic inspected yesterday....mechanic noted the left front strut is beginning to leak. Anyone have a ballpark on how much labor to replace both front struts? Probably will go with Monroe Sensa-tracs. Car has 92,000 miles.

    Where can I get Toyota WS?

    Went to my selling dealer to purchase some WS for a drain and fill on my Sienna. Turns out they only have it in a drum for their own use and wouldn't sell me a gallon if I brought a container. Looks like Amsoil ATL for me.

    Monroe Reflex- what a difference!

    Recently installed a set of Monroe Reflex shocks on my 2001 Jeep Grand Cherokee. I am blown away in how the handling has improved. Anyone looking for shocks should take a look at these, especially with some of the rebates Monroe is offering.

    Bucking when leaving off the accelerator

    A friend of mine recently acquired a pristine 1989 Plymouth Acclaim with only 35,000 miles. In his words, "it bucks like an un-brideled horse when leaving off the gas". Under normal accelleration and steady state driving it runs very well. The engine is the normally aspirated 2.5L. I am at a...

    Should I try M1 5W-20 EP?

    I've begun a new schedule where I'll be driving my Civic approximately 24,000/yr. I'm considering trying M1 5W-20 EP and draining at 12,000 to 15,000. I really like the warranty Mobil provides? I'm presently running PP 5W-20 at 6,000 to 7,000 mile intervals. Any thoughts?

    Headlight restoration

    The headlights on my 2001 Jeep have really turned yellow....purchased a Permatex restoration kit which involved hand-sanding and while they are better, it really didn't do the job. I found a 3M kit which uses a drill-mounted arbor and various abrasives. Has anyone tried the 3M kit or another kit...

    Jeep GC fan relay

    Anyone ever change a fan relay on a 99-04 Jeep GC 4.0? I noticed tonight my electric fan is not running again. I happened about 4 years ago when I had an extended warranty. Just curious how hard of a job it is and is it necessary to use an OEM relay or will aftermarket suffice?
