I found a clearance sale on Walmart's website that was too good of a deal to pass up which was a Yard Machines 2 stroke combo pack of a 25cc leaf blower and straight shaft string trimmer for $138 and free shipping. Like at that price the trimmer is nearly free couldn't say no even if I didn't...

In October 2019 I bought a 6qt box of Havoline 5w-20 conventional and I have yet to use it. Its a cardboard box with a plastic bag so I kept it in a very safe place for storage. Fast forward to 12/29/20 the plastic bag gave way and leaked out all the oil making a huge mess. If you plan on...

I was thumbing through rockauto.com thinking about placing a bulk order of oil filters for a few of my vehicles and I noticed this brand ECOGARD that is selling their product for only $1.42 a filter and their products are carried with Walmart and Amazon so I cant help but think they may be legit...

So I know this has been brought up before according to the message board search I did back in 2005 but in 2017 what is the difference between these two oils by Chevron? I am a devoted fanboy of Chevron Supreme since the price shot down to under SuperTech level at $11.77 for a 5qt jug. They also...

I recently acquired a 2006 Ford Mustang GT convertible a few days ago and as with all of us here we instantly start thinking what kinda of oil and other products we are going to use on it. Right now with my fleet I use conventional oil and Im thinking I wanna stick with that. So my question for...

Back in June I got a 1993 Ford Ranger with 170,000 miles with the 3.0L Vulcan V6 engine. It currently has PYB 5w-30 in it since I bought it and it leaks roughly 3/4qt of oil every 1,000 miles. Its an old truck so Im not going to go crazy about fixing the leaks so I wanted to hear your guys...

Felt like this is a good thread to have on the motorcycle section hahaha. So since I got one this afternoon I'll start. With my Ninja ZX-6 I was clocked at doing 60 in a 35 but the officer dropped it down to 50 in a 35. Very nice of him to do but I still got the ticket. First one ever buuuuut...

The current oil in my Honda Del Sol is old and when I say old.... I mean Ive had this oil in the car before I ever met my girlfriend got to know each other and dated for 2 years. The oil is on the cusp of 3 years old. I just made a joke with her when she got her oil changed that Ive had a much...

So for the last two years in all my bikes Ive used to great success 15w40 Rotella T in the sumps. I seriously couldnt be happier for the value and performance. Until I saw at walmart right next to Rotella T there is a HUGE 2.5 gallon jug of Super Tech 15w40 for I cant remember what price now but...

So on the first of this month I picked up my KLX250S brand spankin new with 0 miles on it. I love love love the bike. Very happy with it. Ok so heres the only problem, the transmission is junk and I have only had it for less than 2 weeks. Here's the problem: While shifting up to and only up to...

So I have a large vega v-tune helmet and it doesn't fit very well at all. Way too loose. I found replacement pads for it on motorcycle superstore and I wasn't sure what to get. If I got lets say medium pads would that make it more snug?

Who here has some high mileage motorcycles??? Ive got two bikes a 94 Ninja ZX6E at 68,000 miles. I really want to get this thing up to the 100,000 mile mark as well as my Ninja 250.

So Im heavily considering purchasing a second bike possibly trading in my Ninja 250 for one. BTW Im only considering a Suzuki SV650. Anyway to the guys who own more than one bike do you really ride them both enough to warrant owning more than the 1? I am a hardcore rider, I ride in all weather...

Im not sure how it is in your area's but here in Whatcom county Washington 76 gas is ethanol free and they make sure to take note on their signs that fact. The other day at 76 I noticed the sign was no longer there and the 10% ethanol stickers were now on the pumps. I havent looked at he other...

So I use my Yaris as my errand runner most of the time. I drive it for all my city trips that are almost all 1-2 miles each way. And this is every single day. I of course drive it on the highway to work 35mi round trip once every other week. Anyway would this warrant changing sooner than the...

Ive changed the oil in my Ninja 250 a few times and the oil color is sooo strange. The best way to describe it is a glass of chocolate milk. Ive seen this 3 times now and not that Im worried about it in the slightest but has anyone else seen this strange dilluted color in their oil? Im used to...

So I just did an oil change on my Ninja 250 a few days ago and I over filled it. Anyway what Im wondering is what is the correct way to use the oil sight glass? While the engine is running or cold do you want to have a proper level of oil? I went based off a youtube video I watched that he...

So as of yesterday this new problem has came up on my bike. The idle speed just jumps up another grand out of nowhere after a good while of riding and stays that way. So instead of a 1000rpm idle its now 2000 and the engine speed stays a grand higher while running. I have no clue whats going on...

In the last week Ive gotten a K&N filter for all my vehicles in my sig. I have yet to see what kind of gas mileage improvements I have potentially gotten in the cars since the weather is so nice Ive been riding my bike but in the bike OMG what vast improvement so far. I dont know if its a fluke...

So Im a single guy with three vehicles listed in my signature. I drive to work 4 days a week which is 32mi round trip 100% highway about a 25min run. It's summer time which means that only the bike is getting used and the del Sol is my bad day back up since it gets 10+mpg over the Yaris. Im...
