    Windshield suction cup mounts

    I'm trying to figure out how to mount this thing (it's a mount for a Scan Gauge 3). It's a suction cup, and it has a plastic film on it and if I peel it off the rubber behind it is super sticky. Am I supposed to leave the film on? It's already kind of wrinkly but maybe that doesn't matter. On...

    Lincoln Town Car Pics

    I'd been saving these for awhile, waiting for an appropriate Panther thread to insert them into. But instead of spoiling the mood of someone else's thread, I decided to start one of my own. Enjoy! Panthers for Everyone!

    2006 Cobalt w/143,000 miles, PYB 5W30

    I should preface that all the previous analyses here are on Castrol GTX; at about 135,000 miles I made the switch to Pennzoil conventional 5W30 for a couple of reasons. So this one is my first report on the Pennzoil (all the other columns are Castrol). As was noted by Blackstone, some of the...

    I've searched a few times here, but have not found one. If need be I'll send in a sample unless someone can point me in the right direction. thanks!

    2006 Cobalt 2.4L, Castrol GTX

    Oil: GTX 5W30 Car: 2006 Chevy Cobalt SS 2.4L Ecotec CHARLES: We found no significant change in this sample from the last. Your ~5000 mile oil runs have kept wear to a minimum. All wear read well below average and in the proper balance, which has become the norm for your 2.4L. The viscosity of...

    2006 Cobalt, Castrol GTX 5W30

    Yay, my first ever oil analysis. Feel free to comment since most of this stuff I have no idea what it is. TBN for example; what is that? Car: 2006 Chevy Cobalt, 43,555 miles, 2.4 liter engine. Oil: Castrol GTX, 5W30, 5000 miles on oil with none added. Charles: Nothing unusual showed up in the...

    Republic Tires

    Does anyone have any experience with these, or know where they're made? I understand them to be a Goodyear product, but to me is sounds like something they might outsource to China. My searching on this forum and on the internet has come up unconclusive. Does anyone know?

    Fuel Filter Change, How Often?

    This came up over on the Cobalt SS message board; it seems there is no specified change interval for the fuel filter on these cars. I remember 30,000 miles being fairly standard among GM cars in the 80s and 90s, but with the trend towards longer service intervals I wouldn't be surprised if they...

    Large gauge fusible links, where to buy

    I need a 12 gauge fusible link, but all the parts stores carry 14 gauge as their largest size. Even the dealer was no help. I've seen spools of fusible link wire for sale on ebay in every size imaginable, but I'd prefer to have a ready-made link with the appropriate connector on the end of it...

    GM 3.1 V6 picture

    We were debating the merits of different oils on another forum, and to prove my point I went out and pulled a valve cover and snapped a picture. This is a 1991 Chevy Beretta, which I bought new, and it now has 316,000 miles. It has seen Pennzoil exclusively since it was new, both the 5W30 and...
