I did some additional searching and found an 8 qt container with spout on Amazon, but it's $25. I might just hoist up this one and worry about it in six months or so. As an aside, I ordered a jug of Delvac Extreme 15W-40 from Walmart along with the Mobil 1 filter. Only the filter was...

I ran to O'Reillys for an air filter and picked up a 2.5 gal jug to test its weight and it wasn't as bad as though it would be. I just have to see which one of my funnels fit.

I have a year old GMC 2500HD AT4 and I'm thinking about doing my own oil change on it as I've done with my prior vehicles. However, I went to grab the oil and the reality just hit about the size of a 2.5 gallon jug of oil. I'll already be on a step ladder to get to the oil filler at the back of...

I haven't had a large stash since the Pep Boys coupon debacle of 2005. All that Buy 3, get 3 Free Mobil 1 was finally exhausted a few years ago.

It's a 2004 10323 with the DuraForce 2 stroke. The carb float is sticking along with a possibly warped carb. I'm sure a simple carb replacement will have it running again, but I just don't have the desire to sink any more money into it.

I ended up adding about 14 oz of some Pennzoil Platinum 10W-30 that I had open. The crankcase takes 20 oz. The mower started right up. No smoke at all through the muffler. I put my hand there and felt no oil on my hand. The old Lawnboy it is replacing would be broadcasting the fuel/oil mixture...

The Toro website and the dealer I visited while looking both indicated the engine is a Toro branded engine. I'm sure someone in China produces it, but I don't know who.

Maybe I'll run some dino 30W for the first use, then change to the RP. Hate wasting the good stuff.

Originally Posted By: HerrStig Who made the engine? Hose clamps ought to hold the handle until you find the parts. The engine is Toro branded, a Toro TXP 159 cc. It comes with a five year warranty, so I imagine it is built better than the big box store mowers.

I bought a like new Toro Super Recycler SR4 90381 off of craigslist. He bought it online and only used once or twice. He did not attach the bolts to secure the handle to the mower, so it was awkward to use and he gave up. Oil was very low in the machine. It did not reach the dipstick, but when...

I have a bunch of microfiber towels of various types, weights and quality. They are used for detailing only. I have no idea why they would be around metal or even wood shavings. I have towels dedicated for exterior and interior use. They even get washed separately. All of the wax/polish/wash...

The wife tells me not to buy flowers for her since they are so overpriced. I buy them plenty of times throughout the season. I'll be cooking a nice dinner, making some chocolate covered strawberries and set up the good china in the formal dining room. It may be a manufactured holiday, but it's...

We took our first cruise on that ship back in September. I think it was scheduled to be put into dry dock this month and completely upgraded.I guess that timeline will be moved up a bit.

I started working out in May of 2011 when my 5'10.5" self hit a whopping 221.5 pounds on the scale. I've done two rounds of P90X and a Hybrid Round of P90X and TurboFire. I'm two weeks into my first round of P90X2. I don't have updated pictures ready, but this is from November when I hit 180...

I unfortunately know what you are going through. We had my wife's parents, brother and grandparents fly in for Christmas. This was Grandpas' first flight ever. The flight went well. They arrived on the 22nd. On the 23rd, he got a little dizzy and fell backwards in his hotel room. He rested for a...

We lost power during Ike and I was finally able to get a B&S 5,500 Watt portable unit to get us by until the power came back. It is a basic model and loud, but gets the job done. I installed a ten circuit transfer switch to handle the power transfer. It's nice not having to run extension cords...

A good friend of mine lost 150 lbs doing Weight Watchers. He's kept it off and his doctor actually wanted him to gain 10 pounds back. I hit 221.5 lbs on the scale and started to change my life in May. I dusted off the P90X DVD's and actually did the workouts for a period longer than three...

The 40th Anniversary was just a continuation of special editions for the Grand Prix. They were basically the same thing year after year, with just variants in color. 2000 had a Daytona Edition 2001 had a Special Edition 2002 had the 40th Anniversary There was also a Daytona in 1998 that was...
