    Yellow "gunk" on my oil cap???

    That`s unfortunately a sign that there`s antifreeze leaking into the crankcase. I`ve seen it many times and it always looks like light colored foamy chocolate milk under the cap and also on the dipstick.

    Fiberglass Hoods

    A friend of mine had a fiberglass cowl hood on his 83 chevy pickup and he hated it because the hood would lift on the front corners when you hit like 70 mph and it cracked the paint. Thats the main reason i have steel cowl hoods on both my trucks. I know that wont happen on all makes and...

    Some guys have all the luck.

    I`m really not sure what they are because the snow around the truck has very thick ice on it and i didn`t want to bust my ass or even worse, drop my new camera. I`m sure he`s going to be using the wheels if they`re not too wide to use with the smaller tires he gets but if he wants to sell...

    What of brand of engine oil and oil filter do you use?

    I would never trust a quick oil change place with any of my vehicles. An oil change is a simple thing to do and the fact that those idiots can screw it up is scary. They will hire anyone that can walk in and fill out an application. I had a friend that knew nothing about cars and he was...
