What is likely the issue if a still fairly new Honda push mower needs starter fluid? I use ethanol free fuel and it runs smoothly afterward.

This Jeep was parked for almost a year because of an illness in the family. When we finally got it back on the road, it pulled hard to the right when braking, and the left front wheel would barely spin freely while off the ground, leading us to believe the caliper has seized. After compressing...

Hey just curious how this spring repair is holding up. I'm considering a purchase

Update: Thankfully when the stud snapped off, it was at the end so after using the die with vice grips, I was able to rethread AND there was enough thread to secure a new lug nut.

Good point

I recently took our LeSabre to get an alignment (they do all four wheels) and could only get the front two completed. They charged me half the price which was nice but the mechanic stated that because the bushings are shot in the rear control arms...which is causing a noticeable misalignment...

I've never used a tap and die before so I'm looking at this set and after watching a couple videos, I'm concerned that the tool the dies sit in is too long to turn because the other studs will be in the way. Will it work somehow or do you recommend something else? I'm hoping to get one locally...

Maybe this one then

I bought this 180 degree Murray stat

Would do you guys think of this antifreeze? https://www.walmart.com/ip/Super-Tech-OE-Red-Antifreeze-Prediluted-50-50/233783910?fulfillmentIntent=In-store Super Tech OE Red Antifreeze Prediluted 50/50

Didn't realize there were two block drains. But are you suggesting that just draining the radiator should suffice?

1) I want to replace the thermostat so what's the recommended way to drain the coolant prior? Not going to flush by the way 2) Would you recommend a certain coolant?

This 10mm hex bolt is on a 1995 Lexus so I'd imagine it's been there for many years. I've sprayed it with penetrating fluid and I'm wondering what else to try. More time for the fluid to work? It's only been an hour? And what after that if that doesn't seem to work? Obviously, the last thing I...

Good to know, thank you.

Already replaced the air filter. Will clean the throttle body as well, thanks for the suggestion! This ES300 has 207k miles and has been a reliable vehicle....NO major issues and plan to keep it on the road.

I've not heard of the Lubegard (has good reviews though). What about the Lucas Transmission Fix? Wondering if they're both engineered for the same purpose.

I've already bought a gallon of Maxlife...wondering now if I should cycle through another to be safe. 🤔

Not sure about the torque converter...how could I make certain and what does that mean overall?

Can you elaborate on the drain and refills? Just basically buy maybe a couple extra gallons, let those disseminate though the system and then drain and dispose before settling on the third? And if so, then change out the filter on the last?

This only happens when for a short period of time for the first handful of miles once the car is running after sitting overnight or longer. Once it has run for a bit, the issue completely disappears. It has 207k miles and I'll also add that the fluid is not low but it's very dark and likely has...
