I avoid dual exhaust systems, they add weight, more expensive to repair and add little benefit unless you road race. At normal city speeds, etc, legal, you don't need the 'extra power' which only exists at the top of the RPM band! LOL!!

Gun lubes are a never ending topic I guess. But I did find out a few things over the years: Most lubes evaporate leaving a dry action or runs out all over the gun. Most lubes are overpriced stuff used elsewhere! So lately I've changed Walther P1 pistols to auto bearing grease, especially in...

In the big picture, if the sight of a Mini-14 turns you on, get it and make a project out of it. If you want an accurate rifle out of the box, get a good AR-15 or anything else. My Ranch rifle is here to stay warts and all, when I've fixed all it's faults, I'll have learned something by direct...

Also think about the retical and your intended purpose, a dual x or duplex cross hair is not for target work! The retical can either be FFP or SFP and that effects your use of mil-dot, MOA to do your holdovers to a far off target. Without some thought on these issues could be unhappy with any...

I recently bought a nice used AR-15 with a 9mm upper. I was surprised how hard it recoils when fired with regular 9mm commercial ammo! ARs in 9mm are blow back only so I figured it should have a stiffer spring, but I found no information on that. In the meantime I'm making light 9 mm hand...

I've got both ARs and a Mini-14 otherwise known as the Ranch rifle, series 187 with scope mount dovetails in the receiver. There's lots of parts and options to improve the Mini and a facebook group with lots of tips. I love the Mini, but it's not great until you mod it which is half the fun...

FFeng7: Since you just dropped the pan recently, I would reuse the ATF, I have in the past, here's what I did: 1 - Before dropping pan second time, wipe down real good the pan and sides of tranny and frame where dirt and grease may fall into collection pan. 2 - clean the pan real good too. 3...

I've had printer failures too, but it can be fixed. Way back in the beginning, I tried rubbing alcohol, etc, mediocre results or worse! One day I watched a guy at printer ink shop and noticed a scent.....and blue stuff in a small ultrasound tank....it was Windex with ammonia D!!!!! Turns out...

Remember, the meter you use to measure 12.4V may not be that accurate - load test the battery, if it passes, keep using it until you get a slow crank. Good batteries can fail if the alternator is on the way out. Measure the battery voltage - engine off. Start the engine - battery voltage will...

Those caps are usually "low ESR" caps meaning "low effective series resistance" there's a lot of current going in and out of these, any cap not a low ESR will get hot right away can can blow in 1 year or in 1 minute! Those caps are part of a switching power supply right on the motherboard. Be...

Good idea to search and download the rules, there's lots to know, not just shooting. Canadian IPSC rules are like 75 pages! Marksmanship on a time limit is an issue, hitting a target at 20 yards fast is not easy to do! In Canada most clubs require a shooter to pass a Holster course that...

I have dash cams front and back running all the time, caught a car hitting my bumper in a Walmart parking lot! Gave the video to the insurance company, my repairs were covered no deductible + a free rental!! A simple big scratch, dent to bumper facia can cost $500 or more, if your car is in...

The clicking of shutters is a sound built into may camera on purpose!!! click click~!!!! LOL

Years back, a hardware wireless application called "telepanel" had receivers and a CPU that would 'wake up' and listen for 1 second and stay asleep 10 seconds and do it all over again for years on 1 battery. If there was an active data stream starting with a unit serial number, it would stay...

Unless you were losing air before, it's a scam. However, you may want new sensors pre-emptively, at most you can get 5-6 years of driving, the sensor battery dies and you have to take the tire off the rim to replace!

if the policy is cancelled, then you paid for nothing - get it done and protect yourself and write a review online!

They can be depends on who makes them and the system. It's also possible the car sends a signal and wakes them up when you start to drive.

"Lubed" and anti-seize are not the same, actual oil or grease, reduce torque 20%. Actual anti-seize use spec torque.
