In the movie, "The Way Back", based on a true story, the guys walked some 4000 miles from Northern Russia to India. In one scene they are in some country being eaten alive by swarms of bugs. They see some locals walking by not being bothered at all by the bugs. They have this ring of something...

Guess Im in the minority, as I run a 195s in all my street motors that burn unleaded. But of course, Im down south and have never operated any engine in frigid winter months you northern boys do. Back when many motor oils were paraffin based the low temp stats would cause lots of crude buildup...

I believe the best fan belts on the market are made by Dayco. I also buy hoses made by Dayco where ever possible. But I go thru so much I buy the 10-15-20 foot rolls sold in bulk off ebay.

I have traveled over a good bit of the country in my younger days using paper maps. I still prefer them. But, when you are driving a big RV, or pulling a camper/trailer, you need as much advanced time you can get in order to be in the right lane needed. Maneuvering those rigs are not as simple...

Guys, time to purchase a new GPS. I have had several Garmin's in the past and had good, long service use. I just have never went the route to pay for upgrades, just got a new one when they got too old. Never had a Tom Tom and was wondering those who have had both, which one did you like the...

We used Ashland 140 in our Graymills washers at the plant, I understand it was basically diesel fuel WITHOUT the smell. Worked great, but when I tried to buy a drum for my personal shop use it was over $600 bucks, too much for me.

When I was 5 years old, both my street buddies, also 5, had black maids. And neither were live ins, as I did not know anybody who had live ins. They were our 2nd mamas and tore our butts up as very often needed. I would have killed my kids if they done half the stuff we three did.....

What he said, the ethanol in today's gas cuts lose most any buildup of crud in your tank or carb bowels. Additives such as Sea Foam can help with pushing any moisture thru the system if you think that's a problem. Ive never run E 15 in a carbed motor but it has a higher content of ethanol...

I was in college and worked part time for a company called Retail Credit Company, which is now called Equafax. A lady there was going back home to England for a visit and asked me to return a book for her, said I might like to read it, the name, Jaws, a book about a shark she said. So I did...

Turn it in as a rebuildable core to one of your local auto parts stores. Somebody someday will need one....

Guys, almost went into cardiac arrest this morning at the paint store. I have squirted a few cars but still consider myself an amateur at best, I just don't paint a lot. I have a local PPG jobber and that's the brand I learned with way back. I needed four quarts of base coat in two colors, blue...

I prefer In-Line Tubes. Of the couple of others I have used, In line seemed to be the closer match to OEM. They are branching out into producing other parts as well, and I have been pleased with their stuff.

All but about 7-8 of them. The daytime slop operas were not watched by any of us kids.....

I, as many of us did, loved riding our two stroke bikes, but understood they were just too 'nasty' to continue and the 'cleaner' four strokes took the lead. But, a newly designed two stroke may be the ticket for a come-back.

One of my favorite DD shows was when Mom had an obvious 'light in his loafers' guy over to do a family photo. There was a small house dog present and the guy ask Phil if he liked animals, and Phils response was, Yes, I LOVE animals , they are delicious ! Cracked me up. Phil will surely be...

Guys, I have offered to repaint a Honda for my niece. I have painted several cars before, but they were completely primered, blocked, and sealed. So, they were all sealed with one color before I laid on the top coat. As you see, there are several spots where the top coat is gone, been...

Watching some old U tube vids of Graveyard Karzs, they were using carpet from a big box, not the small box ACC carpets are stuffed into. Was that a different brand or just ACC carpet in a big box?

I saw him every time he came thru Macon, Ga. back in the 70's, always liked his concerts. The last time he played there was with his black wife, Mary, I think was her name. She sat on his piano and sang all the new songs he/she had written , as Leon did not sing any of his classic songs, and a...

I agree, the ethanol is a big factor in the short lived mechanical pumps. BUT, I fooled with both Chevy and Chrysler cars before ethanol and it seemed to me back then the Mopar pump had a very short life compared to the Chevy pumps. And they both were made by the same folks and prolly used the...

And a big Happy Birthday to you Sir, enjoy your day! :thumbsup:
