so i've noticed that i'm a about 2 months from having a year on my current fill of mobil delvac 1300 and napa platinum filter. On the other hand, it only has about 2k miles on it. Is there any consensus that it needs to be changed at a year or can it go longer? I really havent used it all for...

yea found one on ebay seems the actuator cant be purchased seperately http://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-OEM-Ford-200...=item3cbfe9c638

any idea where you can buy them? ive checked with rock auto and the big three parts stores. they just gave me a blank look

It has no CEL on and the noise seems to stop around 1500 rpm. I believe it to be the imrv system. Any ideas on which of the 3 parts it is? the valves themselves? the actuator? or the imrc? as you can see in the video when i remove the imrc vaccum hose it disappears instantly...

thanks for the input. they're all readily available and within $0.50 of each other. so i guess it's really a tossup huh

I'm looking for some opinions on a filter for my new to me truck. It's a 2002 mazda b2300 with the 2.3 dohc engine. I've used ST filters before and had good luck, but with this model its an ecore which i'm not interested in at all. Here's just some quick observations i've made about each filter...

are talking about buying them or installing them? I usually bought tires from either cycle gear or off ebay. If you can wait till halloween cycle gear usually runs some awesome specials. Last year i got a set of bridgestones shipped to me for what the local motorcycle shop wanted for just the...

I love how companies compare apples to oranges and always in their favor. They're comparing an extended drain interval filter to "normal" oci filters. For example why didnt they compare the mobil 1 ep to say a bosch distance plus? For all practical purpose will you see any extra life in your...

do you know if the blazer and pickup use the same bolts? http://www.partsgeek.com/catalog/1988/chevrolet/s10_blazer/clutch/flywheel_bolt.html

sea doo recommends that you run only their oil. I have several friends and i have personally used other stuff with zero issues. I've use the super tech, amsoil, pennzoil and mercury tcw3 oils.

is there any concern that finer filtering would hurt the flow any? or is that a nonfactor. it will routinely see 6500 rpm.
