Vehicle in question is the Ram in sig. I bought a remote set up a while back, 1/2 inch barbs, dual head. So my preferred location takes the filters to the front of the bed. That is roughly 20 feet of line each way. Before I make a custom hydraulic line (lost all oil twice due to hose barb...

First oci was at 600mi with qs 5w40 That ran 3k, put in some 5w30 ish mix qs and rtgt last one was the same oil. This car sees a healthy mixed driving, including 1 hr hwy runs, has no excuse to yield a 3cst drop in viscosity, but it is an earth dream. Refilled with the same, want to see a sample...

I've been looking for a dobsonian and have come to a conclusion that I am comfortable spending the money on an 8 inch. Zhumell shines compared to others within it's category. This is the scope I decided to buy for my family to look at things above. But, a 10" skywatcher popped up for nearly the...

Had a mishap with the line coming loose off the filter relocation kit. Lost all oil, a time or three, scrapped the setup until I have time to figure something more secure than a hose clamp on barb fitting. It's right in front of the turbo, lucky the thing wasn't red hot when it happened. UOA was...

This is M1 EP of the High mileage variety in 5w30 flavor. Fram Ultra was the filter. Can't remember for the life of me when I put it in, but the MM was at 25% when changed. Checking on coolant contamination, the thing was low by a lot, so decided to looksee. Fuel dilution was much better than I...

First sample. Oil dumped, the Donaldson left in place. Didn't feel like dealing with the flood of oil. Wanted to see how well it's breaking in, and what my fuel dilution looks like. Idles for hours at times, this oil has probably seen at least a day's worth. This is my daily, and I'm only a few...

My RX's first UOA for your viewing pleasure, don't see a lot of these on the interwebs. Huge count of start stop events, my wife does not know how to keep her foot steady. Filter used was WIX/NAPA gold. Refilled with STP Syn HM 10w30 with another WIX.

The oil was in the sump at least 2 years, up to 4, it's been so long I can't remember. When the oil went in, the filter was never removed, so there was that much of RT6 CJ-4 with about 1200mi on it. Oil dumped according to shift feel, K&N air, XG 7317 oil. Filter still on (8k mi factory...

This guy was taken off a 6.7L Cummins. Really a virgin filter, just north of 700 miles, and 4 hours of idle time. Uniform all the way around, pleats ripped when a mediocre amount of pressure was applied. Felt like a normal filter in other words. The can was definitely industrial grade, my tin...

Sold the Sportster, and the replacement is finally here. After riding my friend's Mega, I decided to get one. 275 Pro Carbon, fitted with DMR V12 magnesium pedals. Can't wait to take it out. https://postimg.cc/HrGcqJ6d https://postimg.cc/WhqqYm65 https://postimg.cc/Yv1GMpPg

Installed 30 of July of 2016 - 5/10/19. Took it off the Sportster way sooner than intended because I sold it, and wanted to share the pics Super 76 was in there, VR1, and a variety of stuff used to top it off. Can't remember how many miles, but pretty sure it was at least 4k. Nothing to write...

The Sportster has been somewhat of a concern lately. During the summer I have seen temps peak at 190 in traffic, and 195 after 20 miles at 4k rpm = awesome. Now that the weather is cooling and on some nights after my 40 mile commute I come to my destination and the oil temp is at 170-180...

Was at Danner to pick up a pair of boots, and they had a corner with all kinds of things. Thought I'd share a snap of this jug. I didn't mess with it, but wanted to see the mfg date.

There have been all kids of talk about additive clash and oils not working to their "full potential", or whatever other things that drove people to use one oil brand and weight. There are even people that still believe that synthetic and dino can not be mixed, or you can't go back once you use a...

The unit is called Silentmax 1000. First is was the wall mounted padlock thingy. I didn't bother troubleshooting or reprogramming that, just let it hang there. I have no clue if it relates to the issue or not, but worth montioning. Now the remote. I click the bottom, the opener gets a signal...

link While on the hunt for some hths req for the hardly, stumbled upon this page. At first glance it looks like it could be an intelligent article saying this and that with suggestions here and there. But when reading it, there is more opinion that actual fact. Get tired of sifting through...

An 07 Sentra is not equipped to handle a high speed frontal collision. Without any more detail, a kid's last trip needs to be arranged, and back to the title.

So I'm playing with the idea of buying dedicated winter tires, on rims so I can swap and go when need be. I haven't had a real winter consistently around here, few weeks here and there. Last year was decent, but the A/S Dunflops did reasonably well on the roads. I had a bad day getting up to Mt...

So my cousin is down 3k due to a 48RE going tango uniform, just after 100k in a 07 3500. Had it rebuilt with upgraded components, which exactly I can't remember/he was vague. This is as close to forever truck as I can think of, and he is on the same page, so he wants to make every thing as...
