    Replacement Windows

    I used Pella windows bought from Lowes several years ago. Still makes a world of difference.... Start by buying 1 window and install it. Learn what tools you need to make the installs efficient. I averaged 1 window per hour not including the final painting after the trim was replaced and caulked.

    Break-in for a generator

    Thanks for the suggestions. I have some Amsoil HDD so I will use that after break-in.

    Break-in for a generator

    I am buying a new generator with a 13 HP motor. Does anyone know a break-in procedure for a small motor? The manual does not address this issue. I am thinking to run the generator at varying loads for 2 hours with a dino oil and then change it to synthetic after that. Comments?

    I add 10 cc per gallon to my gas and then let the injector take care of adding the oil in my 49cc scooter.

    Ethos

    Strange. I did the search again using Ethos in subject and body, search all forums, and older than 1 day. Still doesn't reveal anything - not even this thread! Wish I knoew what I was doing wrong.

    Ethos

    I did a search and there was nothing on this. They claim at least 20 cents per gallon savings. http://www.thegassecret.net/

    AMSOIL SVG and RTV gasket sealant for rear diff

    Can I use a RTV sealant as the gasket for my differential when using AMSOIL SVG? I have heard synthetics will disolve the RTV but I don't know if this is truth or myth. This is for my 2004 Chev 1500.

    mild bang shifting

    There is a PCM update to eliminate the 2-3 and 3-2 clank in the 4L60E. I had this installed last week. The 1-2 bang is much better now but still there slightly.

    mild bang shifting

    The 4L60E in the GM 1/2 ton is known for the 1-2 bang shift under light throttle. Mine (2004 CC K1500) does it too sometimes and has since Day 1 (which was Jan 1 2005). Even changing the fluid to AMSOIL ATF doesn't seem help this one. I have heard there is a PCM update to eliminte this bang but...

    Honda Odyssey A/T "Boil Over"

    2002 EXL. I used the overpriced Honda Power steering cooler because I didn't know any better at the time that I could just use a small trans oil cooler. I used a True Cool 4452 orginally with the OEM trans fluid because the Honda cooler is very expensive and doesn't seem to have much capacity...

    Honda Odyssey A/T "Boil Over"

    Yes and I towed 3200 lbs (Trailmanor 3023) for 3 seasons. I just changed it two weeks ago at 45K and it was only a bit darker than new when I flushed the system at 10K. I changed at 10K beause I noticed the Honda fluid had changed to a peach color after one of our towing trips from VA to PA back...

    Amsoil TSO 0W30, 6733 mi, 2002 Nissan Maxima 3.5L

    John in ATL This was my first run of TSO. I was trying to see if I could run 2 years with just filter changes to justify the added cost but that is unlikely. Although all previous runs (except original factoy fill and the first change) were ASL I never tested because the engine was too new so I...
