Just bought a nice 2003 Jetta. But the interior stinks of cigar bad. The dealer did what he could but it still reeks. Any one have a way to remove the stench or at least cover it up until it fades?Thanks WDP

I am getting into biodiesel and want to remove the last bit of water and filter everything out of the fuel before it hits the truck tank. I have read here but can't find references to shredded news paper bypass filter media. Question, can I build a filter from a 6 inch pipe and stuff it with...

How much is that........... ....Lexus in the window? A lady walked into a Lexus dealership just to browse. Suddenly she spotted the most beautiful car that she had ever seen and walked over to inspect it. As she bent forward to feel the fine leather upholstery, an unexpected little far*t...

People were in their pews talking at church. Suddenly, Satan appeared at the altar. Everyone started screaming and running for the entrance, trampling each other in a frantic effort to get away from evil incarnate. Soon everyone had exited the church except for one elderly gentleman who sat...

1. Do not walk behind me, for I may not lead. Do not walk ahead of me, for I may not follow. Do not walk beside me either. Just pretty much leave me the **** alone. 2. The journey of a thousand miles begins with a broken fan belt and a leaky tire. 3. It's always darkest before dawn. So if...

Due to a lack of under hood space on my 96 Explorer, I mounted the Motorguard to a frame member in front of the radiator. All is good till the temps dropped, now it won't flow no matter how long I drive. The TP was just changed 1K ago so it's not plugged. Running Amsoil S2000 0W30. Any ideas to...

I have scored 3 samples of Polybutene. 10.5 cst, 229 cst and 340 cst. Reasearch has shown that added to fuel, gas or diesel produces marked power and mileage increases while reducing pollutants. I have found mix ratios of 2 ounces to 10 gallons of fuel produces the desired outcome. The active...

I have need for a penetrating grease for a few areas on lawn equipment that are exposed to dust but need a tad more than an oil for lubrication and rust prevention. Springs, adjusters and their shafts on the mower deck are an example. How about mixing a good quality grease with a solvent like...

Any idea when the crappy winter gas will depart, eastern Pa. /Philly area? It will be nice to get the power and mileage back with gas getting (more) expensive. WDP

Recently purchased a 1994 model 1207 Jayco pop up. Considering the amount of maintenence needed to get it up to snuff, I doubt the lift rods were ever lubricated. I have added AC to the roof and the additional weight will stress the lift system even more. How does one get to and lubricate the...

Running a Motorguard with a Permacool universial adaptor on a Ford 4.0 OHC. Drilled the Ralph recommended 7/32 hole through the adapter to eliminate a start up rattle. The filter does not drain and makes a mess at change out time. Can I remove the restrictor to allow better drain back to the...

It seems the Motorguard filter suffers from a small top surface area to trap the dirt and needs frequent replacement. I have many round gasket cutters that could be used to make say 1/2 inch holes from the top of the toilet paper down perhaps 1-2 inches. The cuttings would be removed and the...

Got a MotorGuard with the Perma-cool Universial adapter on a Ford 4.0 OHC engine. It appears that the seal between the Amsoil SDF-15 and the adapter plate is leaking ever so slowly, just enough to tick me off and leave a single drop on the driveway each night. This is the second filter (SDF)...

Vehicle, 98 Ford F150 4WD, 4.6 V8, 5sp manual. Manual calls for a 75-140 synthetic lube for the rear end. I have seen somewhere here about an Expedition (same drivetrain) owner that is useing the Amsoil 75-90 and picked up 2 MPG. I sometimes run loaded, 1500 pounds and other times tow a small...

Now that I have switched to a synthetic grease for use in my cartridge gun, the constant spring pressure is bleeding the oil out of the mix. Not only is this messy but the active ingredent is being reduced with each passing day. Question?? is there a way to release the spring pressure on the...
