Lots of great points here. What it amounts to is "it all depends"...
Are those things really any good? I have a Milwaukee China right angle 3/8" impact wrench that sucks. Tell me which ones are good and I'll try them.
Of course I avoid Chinese tools, but in a pinch I bought a pair of hose clamp locking pliers from China at Advance Auto Parts. It's better than...
You ripped through that job well. Hopefully the truck gives you many good years; they are certainly capable, especially in the hands of someone...
Love seeing someone make something like this. Beautiful job!
How's it running? How's the battery/alternator? Check your big fuses and grounds !
Kevin, I love seeing nice work like this! Great job. White lithium grease or Lubriplate, if you can find it would be fine. I don't like the...
Where'd you find a smoke generator?
I'm not concerned about his finances, but about his character. A guy displaying ostentatious excess in his financial choices is almost always not...
That thing cleaned up beautifully. What a great job!
No wonder it has no mileage. It was laid up in a yard with the side ripped off it.
Typical car dealer, looking for a stupid buyer who'll buy a loan.
Get a second opinion. This may be nonsense.
It's possible the dealer is right. It could have dropped a valve. But I'd either pull the valve cover, look in the cylinder myself and perform a...
If the car's in Park and it slid down the hill the Parking Brake had nothing to do with holding it. It's moot.
As others have said, millions of cars out there and probably 99% have never had the rear end oil changed. Virtually none of them fail. Spend...
I doubt it. A vent maybe, but short of the cooler lines, there's the bulkhead connector where the wires pass into the case. They often leak and...
I had a leak where my dipstick tube rotted a hole in it. But if it's spraying while running I'd suspect a cooling line or connector? Look at...
Hogg, the solenoid is part of the shifter assembly, so you'll have to take the console apart to get to it. Could be that mechanism is goobered up...
I'd go with Mike's advice. Sounds more like a voltage problem than a PATS problem, though I'm just guessing. Relay contacts, corroded...
Well you certainly have a point. Hopefully they inspect and regulate the quality of the stuff they make there. I've been burned over and over by...
There's a solenoid that locks the shift lever in Park if the brake is not depressed. The brake pedal has a switch that activates the solenoid....
Never had a problem with a Motorcraft part, and of the ones I order the vast majority have come from USA, Canada or Germany. Only had perhaps 5%...
Thank you for your wisdom. You are great.
Some are better than others. Most work, but the aftermarket ones sometimes have to be depresses much harder than the OEM's. After time it seems...
