Get it checked every six months! There is a repair for that but it's invasive. Take care.

Yes, It's Castolin Eutectic EUTT224 3/32" X 36". TigTectic 224. I believe you can purchase it through an Air Gas distributor.

My Wife just went into the ER about a month ago with the same thing. Blood in her stool. They did an emergency colonoscopy and all they found was Diverticulitis. We all have it because of the ultra processed no-fiber food we've been eating since birth! She was on blood thinners, so they stopped...

Nice bunch of rides! WElcome! Oswego Illinois???????

My opinion only, You should tuck it away and keep it with the car.

I dunnow! I use an ad blocker so I don't get too much. never saw those before.

Nice repair on the broken ear! Yeah, the freeze plug hole is not a candidate for drill & stitch repair. Weather you use the Tig Tectic filler rod or something very similar I believe welding is your only option. Have it welded and forget it. It's not in a high stress area. The area just needs to...

I'm going to go out on a limb here. I worked on alot of industrial equipment over the years and the stitching does work, but when working with cast iron I would rather T.I.G. weld the crack with Castolin Eutectic Tig Tectic 224. If you vee out the crack carefully and have someone repair it with...

It's really a crapshoot. Try and buy it from someone local that will take a return back without charging you. Of coarse it would be really nice to find a used one, but if the rear lip is rusted, that can be fixed. Post some pic's so we can see how bad/good it is. I would save it if I could! I...

The C.A.C. or Coronary Artery Calcium test is a CT scan that identifies and measures calcified plaque in the arteries supplying blood to the heart. This is one of the most non-invasive tests next to an Echo Cardiogram. Shows you all of the blockages. Easy-Peasy.

Get a C.A.C. test! $75.00 your cost. Saw the brochure at my Dr.'s office and told her I wanted one. She said "You don't have high cholesterol" you're fine! Went and had the test. C.A.C. score was 646. Four days later I was in the Cath-Lab having two Stents placed in my L.A.D. Lucky me!!!! Go...

$300.00 is a fair price. Most guys go with Aluminum heads now and 906's are no big deal. What is the thickness of the head on the exhaust side? If it's never been cut it should be just a few thousandths over 1.00".

So, there are two commercials on T.V. from Comcast that blow me away with their creativeness! Mind you, I HATE Comcast, but these commercials are great! Frankenstein in the Castle asking "Anything about the Bangs? and the Rabbit commercial with the 1950's band with Louis Jordan, And the green...

When I put a new intake on an engine, I usually bolt it to one head only with no gaskets. I also take a cheap electric endoscope and match up the ports. Then I use feeler gauges to measure the gap between the intake and the head. You also check the taper in the space if there is any. If it's...
