    Chevy Impala Manifold Seal Fix

    I was somehow losing antifreeze from my coolant system in a 2000 Chevy Impala. I assumed it was a leaky seal. I did a Prestone back flush system after using a radiator cleaner. I then put in "green" fluid instead of the Dex Cool since I read it is the culprit of lots of cooling system problems...

    John Deere Lawn Tractor deonation

    Non-ethanol gas is getting harder to find locally in 87 and 89 octane so I use 91 octane in my Deere twin-v lawn tractor. The thing is it developed detonation regularly shortly after shutting off the tractor. The unit is only 2 years old and a addition of gasoline cleaner did not help. Lately I...

    Warning About Kohler Oil Filters

    I had the same problem with the Briggs engine on my John Deere Lawn Tractor. My first oil change I literally destroyed the oil filter removing it. Someone at the factory really tightened it on. After that no more problems with oil changes. I could barely get the screwdriver in since there isn't...

    CHEVY IMPALA Oil Drain Plug and Filter Location

    I inherited a 2001 Chey Impala from a close relative. The oil change light is on but I cannot find any information in the manual with regard to changing the oil. I guess this is GM's way of keeping us from doing our own maintanence work. Anyone know where the oil filter and drain plug are...
