    Post your latest tire purchase

    I bought some Michelin LTX Defenders for my wife’s Escalade ESV last week. Almost $1600 at Costco. Those 22” tires are expensive.

    Do I need high mileage oil?

    I’m approaching 245K miles on a 2005 F-150 5.4 3V that I purchased new. I’ve changed the oil every 5000 miles and it doesn’t leak or burn oil at all. Never had any cam phaser problems. It’s semi-retired now, and my daughter now uses it for a second car- driving it to work at least once a...

    Oil change on Expedition

    Have you ever had to replace an engine in a car?

    I don’t remember. He was coolest guy in the neighborhood though. He ended up selling his Manx and shortened a VW Bus and put a 911 engine/5 speed trans in it. He could actually do wheelies in that bus.

    Have you ever had to replace an engine in a car?

    I put a Porsche Super 90 engine in a ‘67 Bug in HS. Does that count? And I helped my next door neighbor put a Corvair engine in his Meyers Manx dune buggy.

    Ever had a engine or Transmission failure?

    How do you keep bolts organized when disassembling things

    When I did a ground-up restoration of a pre-A 1954 Porsche i took photos of each assembly and put bolts And nuts in ziptop baggies with stickies inside indicating what it came off. Worked well, because it took over 4 years to complete, and I have problems remembering what I had for breakfast...
