    Is my engine oil level too high?

    I just drained the factory fill oil in my 2009 Aura 2.4 ecotec and replaced with mobil 1 and purolator pure one filter. Anyhow... the manual says it takes 5 quarts including filter so after I let it thoroughly drain on a flat surface and replaced the filter I put in 5 quarts. Out of habit I...

    "A 3000 mile interval is generally best" - fact?

    There's a know-it-all car guy on another forum I'm on... I've called him out countless times on touting his opinion as fact in the past on subjects that I'm familiar enough with to discuss intelligibly. But in this case this guy is talking about oil change intervals and saying things that don't...

    "All gas additives are the exact same thing"

    Or at least that's what I was told by some idiot on another forum. He basically told me that not only are the additive packages found in one brand of gas the exact same chemical composition and quantity as found in any other gasoline, but even the stuff sold on the shelves is all the same...

    Poorly running lawn mower: let's see if these additives really work

    OK so I have a really cheap 8 year old lawn mower. It's something like 4.5 horsepower, 4-stroke. It has slowly but surely over the years gotten worse and worse about stalling out. Now it just stalls out on its own about every 45 seconds once it warms up. I already went and bought a new Honda...

    Quick Fuel Power usage question

    If I start using Fuel power, does this eliminate by need to run periodic fuel system cleaner additives such as Chevron Techron or BG 44k? Does it eliminate my need to use any other additives? Is this a good maintenance additive? I mean as in adding it every tank even if there's absolutely...

    Toyota Denso 20004 filter versus the new Toyota YZZD3 filter?

    I have a 1999 Lexus GS400 that I intend to keep for a very long time. For every car I've owned, I've used to use Mobil 1 filters exclusively but I read so many good things about the Lexus/Toyota Denso 20004 filter that I switched and started using the Toyota filter. Now they've got and...
