I'm sure it must be expensive, but I am amazed on the instant rust removal I have seen demonstrated online in some videos.

I don't want to use an electric pressure washer, just want to use my plain old-fashioned garden hose. Anyone use a sprayer with an attached bottle where I can add soap and have a water/soap mix come out the nozzle they have at home that can be recommended? Reviews on Amazon for most of these...

According to this recent MSN internet article it does. I know additives wear out and oil becomes dirty, but if I don't drive the vehicle for six months, I see no reason to change the oil. How is it going to become dirty or contaminated when it's stored? Should You Get Your Car’s Oil Changed...

What's with the cherry picker hydraulics? I borrowed one and it would not work until I refilled the fluid. Then I purchased my very own new unit and find it is leaking all over too. What seems to be the problem? Thank you.

Paint fumes give me a headache, not to mention the health hazards. Need to invest in some respiratory protection. Thanks for any suggestions.

I often struggle trying to keep the motor from turning over (torquing crank bolt, flywheel, flex plate) by sticking a bar or large screwdriver in places they don't belong. I had my local fabricator/welder make me up a tool to take care of that task for me under most circumstances. However, when...

A friend wanted help on his '91 Jeep Cherokee XJ with a no start situation. I heard the fuel pump kick on for a second or two when the key was switched on, but it sounded weak and kind of sick (not strong and fairly loud like they all normally sound). So I went to the local Autozone which offers...

I have tried the cheap/China ones at Autozone which cost about $50.00 and start to disintegrate after about a year after being both outdoors and indoors. I have tried the "Noah" custom fit cover which started to deteriorate after about 5 years after being mostly indoors and cost well over...

I changed out drill bits four times and still could not perforate a hole in a metal battery tray bracket. Half-way through this exercise, I checked to make sure the dual-purpose drill was set on "drill" and not "hammer". At the point of believing all the drill bits were dull (and I had been...

I need to do this pretty soon.

Look handy.

RustOleum products are rare in the stores here, so today when I found some at the ACE hardware store I went a little overboard. Never saw the reflective finish before and I am not sure what to do with it (yet).

I am thinking about investing in a gasoline tank repair epoxy for a power steering reservoir. When I was cleaning it up, I noticed a very, very small damp spot along the joint of the tall part of the reservoir where it enters the "main" tank below. I figure just a dot of this epoxy stuff will...

Moved to a cattle ranch with the family when I was sixteen years old (1971) and promptly took over the two-car garage which was built separate from the residence. Worked out there off and on until 2009.

Plugging up my safety equipment.

The 8 Autolite plugs I purchased at AutoZone Mexico were made in China and none of them were gapped at .035", half were about .020" and the other half over .040". I remember most every spark plug I ever purchased seemed like it was already pre-gapped at .035" (since the 1970's). Of course...

And a couple of buddies like: water, powdered laundry detergent, wax & grease remover, oven-cleaner, scratch pad, naval jelly, power drill, wire brush attachments, sand paper, vacuum cleaner. Then Ospho inside; Ospho, primer, and paint outside.

Where to put my mini-vice in order to hone some small block ductile iron rocker arms? I prefer a shady spot. Anyone else working under a tree? In this case the broad leaf is avocado, behind it is a wild prune, and to the right is guava.

The '72 SSP has two 3,500 mile road trips under its belt so far. Not quite five years yet since purchase of the "Noah" style car cover (and not complaining) but this morning for the first time I found a tiny hole--on the roof of all places. Vehicle always stored in carport with the cover on. I...
