    Engine Cleaning Oils and Additives are Snake Oil..

    Post is a bit cynical, but I had expectations.. :D But the vehicle still runs mint. The Engine runs 100% like new. The Carbon in the Intake is there but I really doubt it's affecting performance. Looking at the diameter of the Ports with that level of buildup didn't worry me a bit, and I didn't...

    Engine Cleaning Oils and Additives are Snake Oil..

    I had to change a Valve Cover/Gasket because it was leaking oil onto my Exhaust Manifold.. I had enough so I finally did the job.. It was a little more involved than the obvious because it was the VC under the Upper Manifold, so that had to come off first.. Anyways, I get it open and it looked...

    Thoughts on Using Sta-bil and Marvel Mystery Oil In EVERY tank of gas?

    I have since switched to Stabil 360 Marine. As said, it has PEA's for cleaning and I think it really works. I swear the car runs like a top and part throttle is super smooth at like nearly 130k on the clock. I bought the 1qt size with the squeeze mixer. It works out to like an additional $1.70...

    They had Timing Gears and not a Chain. You could check that Timing Dot, but mine would jump around back and forth because the Gears were so worn..

    Ford offers special financing to riskier F-150 buyers with lower credit scores

    I can speak on this. My Neighbors defaulted on their Lease and were evicted.. It was the mother probably late 40's early 50's and a couple of 20 something kids and their kids. People coming and going all day every day. When they first moved in, I introduced myself in passing and she (Mother)...

    I considered a Taurus but found a Buckmark on clearance on Gunbroker.. There are MANY different versions of the BM. Check them out.. Mine looks like a mini Spacegun or an Automag.. Mine has been rock solid so far..

    Winter Fuel is here for the Midwest.. Lost mileage..

    Just follow up.. Did another weekend trip. A few things were different this time. I changed to 5W-40 from 5W-30 and I filled up at Shell instead of Amoco.. I also added Stabil 360 Marine at the recommended dose.. The weather was warmer this weekend, so I ran the AC at times but not the whole...

    ATF drain and refill how many times?

    On my Vehicle, I disconnect the Fluid Line at the transmission Cooler, and let it pump itself out. That way you get it all except for what's in the Converter. Add a few quarts to roughly flush the Converter and then refill.

    Winter Fuel is here for the Midwest.. Lost mileage..

    Recently did some repairs.. Replaced my rusted out Exhaust System from the Exhaust Manifolds to the Tail Pipe along with new Cats and O2 Sensors.. Afterwards I tested it out with a 400 mile round trip that I do to get away and was amazed that I did it on a full tank with Gas to spare. I...
