I saw this product sheet and was impressed with its test results. I was comparing it with other multipurpose greases and it seems to have a higher drop point as well as EP results, washout, corrosion resistance, etc than other popular multipurpose greases out there like Lucas Red and Tacky that...

Changed the engine oil for the first time on my 2022 Silverado 1500 with the 2.7l. I used Valvoline synthetic 5w-30 and correct AC Delco pf66 oil filter. Made a mess but everything went well. However, when I started the engine afterwards, the check engine light came on. I checked the codes and...

Here is a a 150-2074 Denso filter. It is a ph2 equivalent. Next to it is an application-equivalent AC Delco filter just for a size comparison. Made in China. It did have a lubricated gasket and plastic covering the opening. It had a nice caged coil spring bypass valve, nice flexible anti-drain...

Cut open a AC Delco pf64 filter that was on my 2019 Spark with around 7000+ miles on it. I thought the pleats looked looked really good so I took some pictures I should've gotten one of the anti drain back valve but it was in good shape and flexible. I've really started to like AC Delco filters...

I've got a 1991 R1500 Suburban with a 10 bolt rear axle. The pinion seal leaks and recently I've noticed some vibration at low speed under high acceleration. I thought some u joints might be going bad, but as I was down under the truck pulling back and forth on the driveshaft I realized the...

I'm sure most on here know what it is: I always thought they were cool and wanted one as a kid, but when I was in need of a lawn mower a couple of years ago I found, to my dismay, that they were no longer made! I'm going to see about getting one of these new ones if I can justify the price...

So a couple of months ago I asked a question about the carburetor on my Toyota powered Lincoln Mark IV and got some requests for pictures so I'm making a short timeline in photos of what I've done to it. Keep in mind this is real amateur work! First day of the adventure, towed it 300+ miles on...

Specifically this happens after a long period of closed throttle engine braking when I push in the clutch before coming to a stop. It idles fine normally and will start right up after dying. Also, engine braking down a steep hill will make it want to backfire. Otherwise it seems to run good when...

After reading a couple of battery related posts on here and thinking about replacing my truck's battery which is 5 years old and getting a little weak on cold mornings. I came across the Pulsetech PowerPulse battery maintainer which is supposed to use the battery's own power to generate short...

I'm talking about the newer B&S engines which say oil changes aren't neccesary, only add oil if needed. I bought one last Summer and used it about once a week for an hour or so to cut the lawn for maybe 15 weeks. I've been doing the same this Spring, having only checked the oil, not changed it...

So I've got the Toyota 20r with an HEI ignition module running off the magnetic pickup in the stock distributor. The HEI ignition module I'm using is a Pertronix Flame Thrower III with a Pertronix Flame Thrower III coil as well. I've previously posted about this engine so it might be familiar to...

I'm converting a Toyota 20r to an HEI ignition system. I've got it hooked up up exactly as in the picture below with the ground going to the two bolts holding it in place. The module is a pertronix flame thrower III and the coil is of the same name. I've checked the ground which is good, the...

So I was browsing in my local Home Depot and came across this beast of a cordless impact wrench. https://www.milwaukeetool.com/power-tools/cordless/2763-20 It seems unbelievable. 700 ft-lbs tightening and 1100ft-lbs loosening. That's way more than a corded electric impact wrench, and more than...

As the title states I'm hooking a Toyota alternator to an old Ford's wiring. I want to do this because I'm swapping a Toyota engine into the Ford. The Toyota alternator has four terminals: Battery, Ignition, S - Sensing, and Lamp. The Ford Alternator has Stator, Battery, Field, and Ground...

This is my first UOA! Good numbers I think, but I'm disappointed in the low TBN. I was hoping that the Lubegard Bio-Tech might increase the TBN a little bit. Leave it to Blackstone to say I should try 11,000 miles next time.

I was thinking today about how terrible the system for tire sizing is. There is no good reason to use section width and aspect ratio instead of overall diameter and section width when labeling tires. Also, it is a mix of metric and Imperial units. I've heard the argument that it makes plus one...

So I was reading the post about leaving a hitch on to help if rear ended. Some people thought it might make it more likely for an accident to bend your frame. I've been thinking about getting the super bumper which installs in your hitch receiver and has some built in rubber shock absorbers. Any...

Some three wheelers have one wheel in the front, some have one wheel in the back That wasn't enough for the Scott Sociable though, it had to have it's one front wheel in line with the driver side rear wheel. It looks like a four wheel car minus one front wheel. I wonder how it was to drive...

I am torn between enjoying that new tire smell, and squeezing more miles out of my current tires. I have about 67,500 miles on my Tacoma's OE Dunlop Grandtrek AT20 tires. Not bad for tires with a tread wear rating of 300. They have been decent tires, but are looking a little rough after 4 years...

So I'm looking at buying a new set of tires for my Tacoma. The Dunlops on it now have almost 70,000 miles and are getting bald on the edges especially. The standard tire size is 215/70-R15 and I'm probably going to buy a set of Michelin Defender tires. However I saw on tirerack that Radial T/As...
