    Block Heater effectiveness 5.7

    -41c here last week and never plugged my 20 in. Wind makes no difference on how cold the engine gets. I much prefer to pump cold oil into a cold cylinder rather than cold oil/ warm(dryer) cylinder.

    Adding Bed Weight for Winter Driving

    Jeeßssss Chill out. All I am saying is Ask what they consider an unsecured load. Negligent homicide because a 40lb bag or block becomes airborne. I seen a large dog hit the back window of a pickup at 110km (70mph), took out window and driver's wife. Imagine what a cement block would do...

What it does do at speed is increase stopping distance, inceases skidding and if not 100% secure it can become a...

    2014 Dodge ram 1500 sport - Battery dead

    Boosting is only going to get your started. If you do not use a battery charger to fully charge then you will continue having issues. Your alternator will not charge a battery. It only maintains. I live North of Calgary. I know the cold.

    Wrong MPG and Range after Cold Air Intake and Muffler Install

    First problem is with K&N your pulling from engine bay which is hotter than what stock brings from outside. Second is If you do not pre filter that K&N you are feeding your engine more contaminates(dirt). Ditch the K&N.

    Battery failure under Warranty/won't pay

    Why did battery die? It was not AAA that sold you a battery. It was the company that was sent to you. If the battery accepted a boost then you should have put it on a charger and fully charged it. No manufacture will accept claim from external seller especially if you do not produce the...

    Try moving your shifter. It is possible it's not in correct place and will prevent key from being released. If you have shift know instead of column shift there may be a problem there.

    Jba shorty headers

    With the Short Tube I would go with Equal Length (something you cannot get with Long Tube) as they eliminate a lot of cylinder meetup at the collector which helps improve performance across all Rev Ranges. I stared using Short Equal after years of Headers and its a No Brainer.
