@ryanCA Do you have a matching helper?

Happy Thanksgiving! I haven't posted for a while, but my '11 LX is still kicking ass and taking names at 128K miles. This week I replaced plugs (needed them) and replaced brake pads for the second time (didn't need them) and rotors for the first (didn't need them) and also flushed the brake...

So I guess I am missing something about the quart bottles? Are they known for going bad?

Oh shoot! You're right! 2.5l metal, not 5 liter. I'll edit my original post. Thanks

Because I already have the compressor and other pneumatic tools. And...I am so sick of batteries and cords and chargers and changing battery standards and so on. Gonna stay old school until my compressor dies (it's only 24 years old)

See edited original post.

Quick comments: Change filter every time when changing oil Fumoto valve with short hose into catch pan and the Jowett filter cartridge make it all better MOST IMPORTANLY: All of the bolts requiring removal for oil change, driveshaft lube and TC and front diff fluid change gave me an excuse to...

I expected worse. Good for you.

Thanks all. I am second owner, but purchased vehicle with only 9K miles. All oil changes done 10-12K miles, always Mobil One except once. We drive it easy - the car is for fast starts and fast drives. Checked the cap and found sludge. PCV on order. I'm in the middle of a house move, so...

Mobil One 0W-20 Thanks for the ideas.
