Every car I've owned required a safari to find the transmission dipstick and fill point :confused:

Try that on a unibody jeep sometime.

It worked fine on a Legacy and Jetta.

Can anyone recommend a jack stand pinch weld adapter?

Hear the power, feel the noise!

I bought one for the server at work when our APC kept melting batteries and later bought one for home when Newegg had a good sale. No problems but its only been a little over a year.

How much fluid is normal for a change anyway? I went through three quarts changing the presumably 14 year old fluid on my Mustang. The old stuff looked black :(

Our company truck is a 90s one ton Chevy with a ride height not that much greater than car and its amazing how much nicer loading and unloading the bed is over any other truck I've used in the last decade and change.

This guy has a steam powered machine shop. The belts are scarier than the steam engine.

Just leave the doors hanging open, that's what we do on our Ford and it hasn't broken a door in twenty-ish years.

Right turn signal on my Subaru is doing that right now. It doesn't fully go out but the change in resistance messes with the blinker circuit. Where did you get the connectors?

If the bulb is some kind of standard size you can get a connector for it, chop off the old one, put on new one with whatever is the fashionable way to connect and protect wires these days.

If its Subaru's own I guess you pay whatever they want.

I hope they at least let him count his distance as being to where it landed.

Distance is measured at the sled.

I think they have a different name in MN and IA. They have their own brands for everything and its generally pretty good, the downside is when you want something specific and they don't carry it because their shelves are full of their own brands.

Those aren't bolts. It's a cheap lovely plastic cover.

Reminds me of a 90s ford truck

That's because it was cherry picked photos. Get a few drinks in, video it all, and edit nothing.

I found gloves with a thin leather palm and mesh backing just for this in the summer.

Wow thanks Slavvy, you actually prevented me from selling the KTM for a ZX-6R which I planned for this year. But now I have to fix the oil leaks for good

Maybe he meant your bike specifically doesn't get any other oil to the head because it's broken?

I didn't take a picture but I got a bolt out with an ez out. The other bolt broke a drill bit and then somehow I had the start of two holes?? but got that one out with a spanner bit from my security screwdriver set.
