    How to read spark plugs

    Lisren pal, I can have any fing thing I want, wether you approve or not. I don't care if you approve of how I live my life either. I really don't understand how you reach your level of arrogance or condensation. But for the record, that car represents less than one percent of my net worth. In...

    How to read spark plugs

    Youre not kidding that tune had big issues! I was never satisfied with how the car ran. But it seemed to really go down hill rather quickly. When that happened, I parked the car for several months. I looked for a different tuner and was lucky to find the one I did. I'm sorry, but I don't pull...

    How can i get better gas mileage

    You could dimple the body of your truck, like a golf ball. I heard that helps. I don't want to buy less gas, I want to buy less expensive gas. As long as we consumers are willing to pay six dollars for gas, they’re going to keep raising the price. I propose a boycott. For a little while at...

    How to read spark plugs

    You will notice on that Champion card, that the porcelains are all different colors. They are going strictly by the electrodes. Video dude is all about the porcelain. He claims that if your tuner isn’t reading spark plugs the way he says to, he is just a computer operator. If you look at my...

    How to read spark plugs

    That was really informative. I didn’t know to look at the porcelain. These were the “Racing Plugs” ( I can’t remember the brand name, they were supplied by ProCharger) that came out of my V6 Mustang when it got Re-Tuned by Lee Blankenship, Nov 2021. Getting the car retuned was money well...

    New 3.0L Hurricane in line 6 from youtube perspective.

    It'll be interesting to see how long those engines run before they go pop. I'll never understand why they didn't just put forced induction on the Pentastar. And I am not buying whatever that dude is selling.

    How can i get better gas mileage

    If you drive the average 15,000 miles per year, and your vehicle gets 20 mpg, you are paying an extra $42.26 per week (per driver). I'll be fine, but to a young couple who were just getting by 2 years ago, or to a young couple trying to get out of debt, that adds up to a lot of money. They say...

    2017 Dodge Ram fish tailing

    Started fishtailing after pitting a 3 1/4 inch leveling kit on it. Gosh, darn, I just can't figure out what's the problem. Unless you really, really know what you're doing, leave the suspention alone. It's a delicate balance and easily messed up.

    Accidentally remote started truck with no oil- am I okay?

    I haven't heard it for a while but, this story, or some variation there of, used to circulate the inter-web motorcycle forums: Harley dudes obtain some poor old ragged out Japanese 600. They take said ragged out Honda/Kaw/Yam/Suz bike to Harley dude rally, where they try to blow it up. After...

    engine oil cooler?

    Assignment accepted. In the interest of science and for the comfort of wisdom for the masses, I will drive 90. At least for a short bit on the interstate. The faster my truck goes, the happier it is.

    Cilajet Paint Protection

    My truck had a lot of factory overspray on it. Plus it's 11 years old. I just got my truck back from having the clear coat corrected and ceramic coated. It's unbelievable how slick that truck is. It's dry, but you take your hand across it, it feel like oiled glass. My opinion: Ceramic...

    engine oil cooler?

    I have a dumb question. The high oil temp at high speeds, is that an 8 speed only thing? Will my 545RFE/4.10 do the same thing? W1, I wish the bottom of my truck looked that good. My penmanship is better tho. lol

    Stick shift anyone?

    ^Thats if they even show up for work. Whatever you do, don't use your "Business Voice". They don't like that either.

    Do rear air bags help?

    Air bags are fairly inexpensive. They're pretty easy to install. And they work. Nobody likes a saggy rear end.
