    Can battery die if not being used?

    Pretty much yes, I never thought of charging it since it was stored indoors. Also asking if the battery would degrade without using it. Well.... hopefully its still ok. I'll leave the ctek charger on it until it has to be used.

    Recommend grease for Moog tierod/stabilizer links

    Alright I didn't torque them down too much. If they do get seized it probably means I'm not greasing often lol.

    Recommend grease for Moog tierod/stabilizer links

    Hey guys, so my 05 CRV has Moog 1 outer tie rod and rear stabilizer links. I haven't greased them since I installed them 2 years ago. Seems like mystik jt6 "red" is popular. Don't have it locally. Amazon Canada has it for $22cdn. The mystik jt6 "green" is available locally...

    AGM battery charging questions

    I use the ctek polar 4.3 for my AGM. I'll have to check my AGM, it states it needs 13.7v to charge. There are 8 led steps on mine, it tapers down each step. Here is the manual with specs for winter mode which the manual says to use for AGM.

    When to replace the battery

    That's a popular upgrade with the k24. I upgraded my 51r to a AGM group 35. The 51r was an everstart Maxx from Walmart, didn't last 4 years. I always had to put my ctek charger on it every weekend during the final months. If it sat for 2 days in our -30c winter it wouldn't start. (Also heater...

    Cordless impact wrench

    Heh I don't all of my vehicles are 78-80ft lb. But I have to replace all struts on my Subaru soon, and an exhaust leak. I should be ready for future work. My dad has scrap 6x6 lumber so I mess around at his place, driving 8in lag bolts through no problem lol.

    Cordless impact wrench

    Had to google project farm, saw his vids thanks for the suggestion. Decided to get the 2962 fuel tool only. Wife not going to be happy haha. The ryobi did intrigue me, but I agree that I didn't want to get another battery system. As a novice/diy, I hope I get to use this to the full capacity...
