    Coolant Disposal

    We have no problem in Maryland. County transfer stations have barrels to dump it in...free to the general public. I'm sure it's to help keep it out of the watershed, that would otherwise find it's way into the bay. Also, all the auto parts stores take it for free as well.

    door panel

    A little more detail: - With interior handle pulled, slip a screwdriver in behind the actuating arm it's attached to. This holds the handle so the bolt is easier to get to. - Remove the window crank. - Remove the arm rest (2 Phillips screws at a 45deg angle on the underside. - Now you are ready...

    What have you broken while out hot rodding your car?

    In the late '70s broke a coil spring on my '72 D100 longbed 2WD (happened twice). Apparently it did not like hard cornering. 2nd time swapped both out for 3/4T springs from a van. Never happened again. Motor mount on same D100. Kids and power braking... 1985, Leaving Pearl Harbor Naval...

    1966 Satellite hood insulation installation ???

    Hold it up to the hood with the smooth side visible, then flip it over. Whichever side looks best to you is the way it goes in. I'm guessing lumpy side facing the hood is going to look cleaner.

    Bought the wife a present.

    Can't imagine (these days) what this gem set you back.

    Bought the wife a present.

    Miss-read the whole thing ...Here I thought you got her a small dog, put it in an SUV and wrapped it up in 'Mazda paper'.

    Osprey down, looking for survivors

    A jet typically only has 1 or two seats...keeps souls lost, much lower. Unfortunately V-22s got a bad rap during their early days due to a few mishaps while loaded with 'PAX' (passengers)...they can carry up to 24 in the back. It IS a complicated aircraft...can be a challenge for aircraft...

    1966 Dodge Coronet/Charger with factory four way emergency flasher?

    Just add to the conspiracy: My '66 Belvedere II was bought new by my Aunt & Uncle. It has no provisions for 4 way flashers.

    Pittman arm

    Have checked the P/N on the packaging against their website? You may have received the 'quick ratio' arm. Pretty sure NAPA sells the stock spec'd one...for less $$$.
