I just used the last of my green stuff in my lawnmower this month.

I own a 2017 VW Alltrack that is probably the most loved car that I have ever owned but will more than like get rid of it when the factory warranty is done because I can't stand the stress that the panoramic sunroof will eventually leak. Every time it rains I cross my fingers thinking "is it my...

I still have a stash of the original green GC 0w30 from about 2005

I have a 2017 alltrack SEL (no pano roof leak yet) and am running castrol 0w40. I do use LC in all my other cars but the euro oil is so "beefy" already that I decided no to use LC in it. I was amazed at my first oil change when I emptied the used oil from the extractor how it clung to the sides...

I am still using FP and lubecontrol. I bought 1/2 gallon amber glass jugs online from seattle bottle company. Recently lube control dropped the 1 gallon size for FP and LC. They now only have 1 quart size in a heavy duty plastic container that does not deform. So I no longer use the 1/2 gallon...

Back in the early 90's GM had donated a new Geo Metro to a local college shop class. Fast forward to about 2005. I was into Geo Metros and was at the local junk yard when I came across the donated Metro. The shop class had just taken it to the junk yard and i was the 1st to come across it. I...

For the rear plugs I just layed my chest on the engine and felt with my hands. I did use an old plug boot to get the new ones partially threaded on before I used the socket with many elbows and extension. It was not to bad.

They come out ok and looked good. I can only conclude that they are good for 100K. I didn't notice any milage difference but I felt bettern knowing that I had new plugs in there! Take a couple of yours out and look at them. ( on a side note, how does yours drive the snow? This is the worst...

I was 16 and had a 62 pontiac catalina. Used straght 10W oil cause it was the middle of the winter. This was in 1976.

This very same thing happened to me with my 2011 hyundai accent. The manual said 2 quarts. I kept adding and adding until I had almost 3 quarts in. Truned out I had removed the wrong bolt to drain the fluid. I was using a bolt much higher up. I found the the correct bolt removed it and let it...

The 7201 is by far the best tool that I have every purchased! I also purchased the brake bleed kit with it. It makes fluid changes so easy that I almost enjoy doing them!
