    Planet Fitness degrading

    I get a laugh at the Planet Fitness radio and tv commercials. Didn't think much of it. But, they are mildly degrading and insulting to certain groups of people. Every company needs to find their niche, like normal cheap unfit people uncomfortable in steroid'ed gyms. Genius marketing exploiting...

    Reverse brake bleeder

    Opinions on the reverse brake bleeder(forcing brake fluid from the bleeder backwards into the master cylinder). My only issue is keeping the master empty since most here know my opinion on kitchen tools used on the car. And, the poor seal at the bleeder thread might be annoying...

    NTZ Bypass Filter

    Several of these on ebay. Seller claims to have 500+ of them. Most are selling for The canister is G26. The media is p26x(88mmX280mm) and is rated at .5micron. Seller stated canister media is the size of a paper towel roll. Its a pretty big filter, possibly as big as the '750' sized filters.

    Which "Regluar" ATF is better?

    All ATFs are good. I don't see any 'regular' ATF as better or worse than any other. You don't need any additives with your ATF. If anything, add additional cooling and filtration. And, if you don't have a drain plug, when the pan comes off for the filter change, install a drain plug kit...

    alternative to pennzoil synchromesh?

    I wouldn't jump from ATF to 90wt gear oil. I'd try the Redline MTL. Another option is to use a high mileage ATF, like Pennzoil or Valvoline. Or, top off your tranny with up to a quart of 'snot' like Lucas. The best way to fix a leak is to replace the gasket or reseal whatever is leaking...

    Crooked hour glass shaped boutique cartridge filter

    Here are some pictures of a Purolater Pureone removed from a 2003 Mazda 6i 2.3L engine. Oil filter has 6mo/6k usage with Mobil1/Redline 5w20 oil, no additives. The OEM filter will sometimes have 1 or 2 pleats 'moved' a little. This Pureone is looking depressed, hourglass'd and lopsided! I...

    Transmission Filter?

    If you have the old filter, cut it open and see what it looks like. More than likely, it is the same as most filter kits(but smaller) and no magnet(like the magnefine). I think that additional full flow and magnetic filtration would be a good thing. This will help prevent the OEM filters from...

    GUNK Trans MEDIC (red bottle)

    I never had problems with gunk products. I don't care for the yellow transfusion/transeal bottles, or any other ATF sealer or AT rebuilder in a bottle. But, sometimes worth a try as a last resort, like on the drive to Cottman/Aamco/Leemyles. And, the Gunk red bottle, synthetic Transmedic, is...

    Looking for an over-the-counter transmission cleaner...

    Napa can order the Lubegard ATF flush if they don't have it on the shelves. Most BG/Wynn shops should be able to sell you the ATF flush. That seems like a good plan. Add the flush, wedge the tires(back up to a wall tree whatever), start 'er up an leave her in reverse for 20 minutes, then...

    Pennzoil Synchro-Mesh and...?

    Just use a gearoil that meets the required spec. What is the required weight/type that your vehicle needs? I find that a full synthetic boutique fluid, in the required spec, can give a smooth grind-free shift. I also find that defective or broken trannies with problems won't be fixed with a...
