Thanks Guys, I just bought a 97 Nissan Pick-up with 197.500 miles on the clock. Haven't pulled the valve cover but there is a 'thin' film of sludge on the oil fill cap. I could do the 'Ole 'add a half Qt of kerosene' and idle the motor. Yeah, I know. old fashioned but it worked on my vehicles...

Gents, I'am in need of a quality over-the-counter motor flush/cleaner. I've used Amsoil brand in the past with good success but don't have any handy. I've got NAPA, CARQUEST, Advance and Walmart near me. Thanks in advance for knowledgeable replys Gentleman.

Good Evening All. How do I remove 'Hard Water' spots from a One Repaint 96 Camry? The repaint is modern Urthane topped with the correct Clear Coat. The spots are mostly calcium in the rinse water. Thanks in advance for knowledgeable replys Gents.

Recently painted 96 Toyota Camry in the factory color.(Urthane base and clear coat) Washed it and removed all of the pine tree sap using Dawn dish soap. However, a few water spots remain. A Clay Bar removed some but still a few are visiable. Any advice Gents?

Thank you Gentleman, Besides NAPA, is it also available from Carquest? I ask because I'am less then six miles from their Southeast Distribution Warehouse in NC?

Is there a acceptable alternative to the 'Over-priced' Toyota Pink WITHOUT a complete system drain and flush? Thanks in advance for knowledgeable replys Gents.

Thanks Gentleman - the mineral sprits (paint thinner) seems to be working well and I have a fresh gallon of it.

The pesky pine trees 'bleed' sap all over my recently painted 1996 Camary. The paint is fully cured and is base/clear Urthane. I washed it with Dawn dish soap and very liitle of the sap came off. Obviously I don't want to hurt the clear coat. Need advice folks....... Thanks in advance for...

Isn't Tarminator nothing but kerosene?

Thanks Gents - I'll give the alcohol a shot.

My 96 Camry was painted for the first 3 months ago. Now the pine trees all around are dripping sap. Normal washings doen't touch the stuff. I'am thinking clay bar or? Thanks for knowledgeable replys Gents.

Used the #601 polish bonding agent several times and I see no difference using it or not. Label states 'Greatly increases durability of polyaminossilicone polishes' and I apply it per the directions. Yes, I allow it to dry and don't wipe it off. Over-top goes a coat of #111 Clear Coat Polish...
