    I am ready to do the cooling system flush. What are you all doing with the used antifreeze that comes out of the truck? I have read about putting it in the city sewer system (not the storm drain).

    steering wheel off center after alignment

    I had new tires put on today at NTB. Their free alignment check said that the toe was off and that this was causing my front tires to wear out on the outside edge faster than the rest of the tire. Now my steering wheel is off center by about 10* or so. It is driving me crazy. A coworker said...

    Has anybody used the 3 gauge winshield mount from AutoMeter? I bought a gauge package from ITP and everything is cool. I just can't figure out the placement of the pod. It shows to go over the rearview mirror, which is what I wanted, but it won't fit on my truck. Either I need to relocate...

    Can I put a large open air filter element on my 03 Saturn L200 2.2L engine? I was thinking of something like the DIY filter setup that many have on the PSD's. May have to find a filter with a smaller opening, but similar principle. I just don't know if the car will act crazy if the stock box...

    Fumoto Valve

    I bought myself a fumoto valve for the truck a couple days ago to install when I did an oil change. I am hoping to make the changes a little easier. It takes a while to get the oil from a 5gal bucket back into the 1gal jugs that it comes in to take it to the recyclers. The International...
