The other day, I retrieved my motorcycle battery. Naturally, I tested the battery voltage, hoping for the best (it’s 5 years old). As you may know, our vehicles operate at 12 volts, just like motorcycles.
As I expected, the battery barely moved the voltage gauge. I attempted to charge...
Back in the day of the so-called "Slush Buckets" of the eighty's, we replaced transmissions regularly. Here in Pennsylvania, the typical auto transmission would get a real workout trying to keep the underpowered vehicle moving at a respectable speed. The varying hills and...
Typically, we inspect coolant level & protection level in the fall. That's a good idea, but summer coolant protection is just as important. But, you knew that too. Years ago, we would add antifreeze and only be concerned that we had a 50/50 mix. As with all things automotive, that has...

Did you know a "Wheel Alignment" is a great deal? A modern four-wheel alignment machine costs more than $30,000 for cars and light pickups! Why so expensive? The machine measures within 1/10th of a degree on each wheel. The tolerance is so close due to the complicated dynamics of...
I had a surprise last fall. I had four tires (White Lettered-Remington XT120's) mounted on my 1971 Cutlass S. I purchased the Remingtons in the late seventies. The local tire shop told me that the tires were made in 1965! They are now on my car, and the tire shop said they were in...
Winter anti-skid is great at giving our vehicle needed traction on icy roads. But,That same anti-skid chips away at the paint on your vehicles. You may installed mud flaps, and they do help prevent as much direct damage, but they don’t help the looks of your ride! ...
