    2004 chrysler sebering 2.7 oil selection

    The early 2.7's have the problems... An '04 is most likely ok... buuuut... I would STILL run synthetic for the peace of mind... Any name brand you find on sale or stock up with rebates will do. I've used Synpower, Q-horsepower, and PP with no noticeable difference in consumption. My '01 burns...

    Chiropractors neck manipulation.....safe?

    I used the drug as an example! For your information... When you go to the doc and it is discovered you have high blood pressure.. STANDARD practice is to try lifestyle modifications for a minimum of 3 months, before any drug is prescribed. Maybe you didn't understand my point. Everything has...

    New Oil or Old Oil on Filter Gasket?

    I'd use new oil for the gasket.. but that's just me.. and I'm sure your method works just as well! What I would change/try is leaving the drain plug out while taking off the filter... Might need an extra drain pan or something.. but I always have quite a bit of extra oil coming out of the drain...

    Chiropractors neck manipulation.....safe?

    M.D.'s (and D.O.'s) practice "evidence-based" medicine. Eg. You give pills to decrease blood pressure, after there was statistically significant evidence in large studies that proved the pills work at reducing blood pressure, AND ...you do this because even larger studies statistically have...

    Chiropractors neck manipulation.....safe?

    Do yourself a favour and go to a good Physiotherapist and/or Massage Therapist instead... Will help the tiny muscles, increase blood flow and make you feel better! There exists NO study that demonstrates the effectiveness of chiropractics in the long run, and NO scientific basis for any of...

    do you prime your fuel pump before you start it

    I ALWAYS let it prime... and.. ALWAYS first shift it to Reverse for at least 2-3 seconds, on the first drive of the day or if it's been sitting (even if not going in reverse)... Supposedly in reverse, transmission fluid (and others) flow more rapidly and lubricate all parts quicker.

    Silver is sometimes difficult to get the wet look... Try some Meguiar's #7 Glaze right before you wax... It's pretty easy to find, and a good value. I've had good results with it on my silver Chrysler 300.

    "Sludger" engine change intervals

    I have the 2.7L in my Sebring. Not necessarily a sludger in this vehicle but still a concern to me as I will drive the car till it goes to car heaven. I stock up with Synthetic Oil when there are some really good deals (usually with rebates). Change the oil ever 5500Km (3400 miles). Had the car...

    air beds to sleep on daily?

    Slept on one for over a year! Never got around to getting a mattress, it was that comfortable. It was a Coleman, but the taller one that looks like a real bed. Walmart for around $40 (pump separate). Had to add some air every 5-6 days, but not a big deal!

    Most have great specs.. Check them out.. And a lot cheaper than others.. Had some on my Intrepid for a few years... No noticeable difference in ride compared to the original Good(for one)Years that came from the factory, and lasted much longer..

    Are these symptoms of a lost wheel weight?

    I did bring them in to have them checked as they are 4 years old (but still in good shape). The left rear did in fact have a leak... They could not find anything wrong with the other tire. The front tires are a little over a year old and were fine. Last time Tire Pressures were checked was mid...
