    wheel bearing/hub stuck in spindle

    I've got a '98 mitsu eclipse gsx and I cannot get the axles out of the hubs, which I need to change. A mechanic suggested Oxy/acetylene, which doesn't sound great to me. Any ideas on how to break these apart?

    BMW transmission and diff fluid

    I picked up a 2000 323ci with a manual transmission, and according to BMW the tranny and diff are filled with lifetime fluid I've got some royal purple 75-90 and synchromax for the tranny. Good choices??? I thought I would double check here.

    BMW 328i or Mercedes C280W

    Go with the Bimmer. I just picked up an '00 323ci. What a fantastic machine. It doesn't have tremendous power, but it the delivery is silky smooth, and the integrated feeling of the chassis is tremendous.

    Does anyone here use Meguiar's Gold Class?

    I've used NXT for awhile now with much better durability than Gold Class. The GC didn't last long at all.

    Ante up and get a Benelli. It is the most reliable, good shooting auto-loader you can buy. Well worth it in my opinion.

    The fat lady has sung (aka, the ARX test is over)

    I would have to agree with these comments. I was initially turned off by Frank's overzealous defense of his product. He comes off as being completely opposed to fielding questions about why his product might not work. I have used the product, and while I did not have the positive results in the...

    American Chopper Oil Issue

    yeah, what kills me the most is "American Hotrod". I was looking at the Barrett Jackson site, and his cars are going for over $500k. What the **** ??? I mean they're nice, but they aren't some unbelievable crazy amazing car. For that kind of cash they should look like they do, and they should be...

    Porsche

    Used to have a '82 911 Targa. No power steering-unbelievable car to drive. Just point and shoot. It wasn't overpowering, but it had enough ommph. Unbelievable brakes for a car of that time. I miss it. I didn't like the targa roof however.

    Why use anything other than a 0wXX oil?

    with either 5w-40 or 0w-40 mobil 1 I see no difference in my Saab in the winter. I use M1 15w-50 in the summer. I still run 7000mi in a turbo car with 137000mi and absolutely no oil consumption. I thought that I would get some when I changed to syn, but I have had none to speak of. I am...

    3100 lower manifold gasket.

    Well, I'm a Pu$$y. I started doing the lower manifold gasket on my woman's Malibu, and I quit once I got the injector rail off. NOw, I've noticed that the thing uses some coolant. What should I do? Try it again? or, should I take it to a professional. Who has done this job?
