I’m not a regular, posted here before but got really active over the past few days because a few things came up. In just a few days on BITOG, I did the following:
(1) Found out Mobil makes a nice synthetic 15w50 that will work well in my 65 GTO.
(2) Found out that Michelin makes a couple of nice studless snow tires that will likely hold up longer than the Blizzaks on both my truck and my wife’s car that are on their last season.
(3) Learned about something called a “fluid extractor” that I can use to make servicing diffs and transmissions a lot easier, instead of having to drop the pan or cover.
(4) Figured out after all these years that my GTO probably doesn’t have a blowby issue, but actually only uses oil since it is a manual and I do a TON of engine braking. Learned this in a thread about a Subaru no less!
Very knowledgable group here, thanks.
