Using a high quality full synthetic oil and a premium filter (choose your brands, everyone has their favorite) how many miles for a OCI? Too many variables to list, just a ball park mileage for most any vehicle and driving type. Yes, I know a UOA is the only sure way to know. Would be...

I would choose all of the above, but I am from Texas too.

I knew a roofer that really loved his work. He liked to look down on people, and wanted others to look up to him. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Old cars are not the issue, just old beaters? Is a well maintained 50 year old car ok to...

When you think about it, all factory fill oil is a break-in oil, but are there any particular oils that would be better than the factory fill for breaking in a new engine? Don't most mfg. say to use FF until the first recommended oil change? Yes, I am sure this and every other automotive topic...

Does loading up with sugar and creamer packets from the local diner qualify as cheap? Or is it theft? I'll return in awhile, I need to go add some "free" sugar and creamer to my coffee.

I have read here that Honda uses a FF break-in oil.

JD calls it a oil change, but in reality, it is not a oil change, just a oil replenishment, like topping up when the oil is low. Owners that rarely or never got around to changing their engine oil, or owners who previously would not consider changing the oil themselves won't bother with this...

Originally Posted By: junksta Just bought a 1990 Japanese 4x4 4cyl with 100k on the od. Have no idea of the history but was wondering what you thought the best way to break it as far as what oil to use. No drips but lower engine is oily/dirty. My idea is to flush it with cheap oil for 500 mi and...

More people die from being MORTAL every year than all of every thing combined. That statement is awesome, so true! How about this.... I read a 2017 FAA report that most plane crashes are caused by a lack of altitude of the aircraft, and I believe it! Of course I believe everything the...

In the 60s I flew as a crew member of a P2V7 Neptune patrol plane(VP11). Pre P3 Orion aircraft. We buzzed the Soviet fishing fleet that included spy intel ship off the northeast coast. We rigged them at 30 ft off the water, photographing all the ships. Also we caught a Soviet sub on swim call in...
