    Automotive News Report : Oil Shortage Looming

    Doesn't the US only get a couple percent of our oil through the straight of whatever it's called? If it was up to me I would make everyone trading oil take physical possession of it and stop future speculations.

    retirement party; 35 years at the same job

    Twelve years ago when I retired I was paying $12 hour for each employees retirement fund and the IBEW was still running at something like 80% funded. I can only imagine how much employers are paying now. The biggest chunk of that money goes into the pockets of the ones who are paid to manage the...

    Tesla Full Self Driving (FSD)

    Probably would have saved a few of my cars that scraped the guard rails when I fell asleep back when I was young. 👍🏻

    will cabin air filter remove Skunk and Pot smells?

    The ozone. I probably should have been clear on that. The bong days are way way in the past. Plus it wouldn't be fun anymore now that it is legal.

    IH Cadet - greasable spindles for my 42" mower deck

    You would think that the factory would have removed the seal or at least drilled some holes in it if the grease fitting was more than a sales gimmick. My cub cadet zero turn zforce that is 20 plus years old actually has bearings with a grease seal removed on both inner sides of the bearings. The...

    will cabin air filter remove Skunk and Pot smells?

    I have a big one right next to my bed. I think it's giving me brain damage but I'm to dumb to stop using it 🤣

    Idiots that drive with hitch balls attached…

    The only reason I take mine off is because I am one of those guys that always walks right smack into the darn thing. I think I have permanent nerve damage in my leg from the hitch encounters.

    Ring and Pinion pattern thoughts

    Should cost $500. ...it's already to expensive. Apply a little heat and red will let go pretty easy. That being said I tend to use blue and the red ends up staying in the tool box most of the time. My little bottle of red threadlocker is probably 20 years old and dried out.

    Ring and Pinion pattern thoughts

    It looks good to me. I always tend to spend way to much time over thinking it and making tiny adjustments. Slap a cover on it, fill it with fluid and run it. I bet I spent three days tweaking my last set of 4.10 gears on the mustang.

    They don't need new grease unless the seal was broken.

    Game: Read this plug

    Looks like rust to me. Old car started after sitting for a long time. Or a blown head gasket. Either way I see rust. 🤔

    Stihl FS94R weedeater; clogged exhaust port

    My weedeater and chainsaws are stihl and I've never seen a clog like that. I also always take the screens out so that might be why.

    Facebook ad- 2024 F350 dually pull off tires for sale- not sure Seller is honest

    It's a friend of my late brother that owns the tire shop I always go to. I just bought 3 amp terrain pro tires 275/65/20 for $28 a piece. They are used tires with 99% tread from a wrecked truck. Somebody swiped the fourth one, we couldn't find it anywhere on the property.

    Facebook ad- 2024 F350 dually pull off tires for sale- not sure Seller is honest

    A lot of used tire places get good tires from a recently wrecked vehicle. The going price is usually $25 to $30 bucks a tire if you are lucky and know the owner. $1800 is a bit much unless it includes the rims.

    Diesel Generator Advice

    If it will run and spin the generator it's better to test it before spending money on engine work. If it does need anything on the electric side it will give you time to order parts while the mechanic is working on the engine. When a generator is replaced it's usually going to need servicing and...
