I know that switching oil isn't a substitute for actual repair, but I've had significant luck with Valvoline Full Synthetic MaxLife oil (the new gray bottle).
I've stopped oil leaks / oil burning in a number of older vehicles.
I have been researching this for a while and I never know what to think about WD-40...

I was reading somewhere NOT to lubricate threads in any way. Something about the decrease in friction will cause you to over-torque the nuts beyond their capability.
I wanted to lubricate the threads on my lug nuts so they will spin on smoothly, but I was advised against it.
Any truth...
There are four main bulbs (#194) that create the background light for the dash.
Every other warning light (ABS, diff lock, etc...) has there own separate smaller bulb (#74).
It seems like everyone is using REALLY bright bulbs for this application.
I used lower power LED's because I hate the overspill of light coming from the needles.

These pads have about 1000 miles on them, and I hate to throw them away if someone can use them. Used for a short while on my stock 97 LX450
They are Wagner ThermoQuiet
Part number: MX606
I paid $50 for them at Advance Auto
Free for pick up in Tulsa, OK -- or $10 and I will ship to anywhere...
I live in South Tulsa, but my parents live near you.
Usually on the first Thursday of every month we meet for pizza in Tulsa or Broken Arrow. You should come sometime.
You are referring to the cross-hatch pattern.
Do not sand it off, just spray the entire rotor with brake cleaner and wipe it off completely.
The new rotors should be installed clean and dry.
