I’ve been camping 5 years now. I have a hard side camper trailer. I have never once camped without electricity. I’m now learning what it will take to camp a week or more with no hook ups. I will need a good battery every night to run the furnace as it will be cold. I have a generator and...
I started my car today and after letting it warm up a minute I notice the service engine light lit. Car seems to run just fine. I let it run a couple more minutes to see if anything is going to happen and all seems normal other than the light. I check the code and find 34. I put the car in...
I figure many of you pull your cars so you may have some input for me on pulling. I have a 2015 GM express passenger van. 3500 with 6.0l. I also have a 2015 Keystone travel trailer that is about 7,000lbs fully loaded. I’ve been pulling this setup for three years and feel very comfortable...
My broke again. I had forgotten that it broke a few years ago when I last drove the car. I hooked the battery up today and the motor just kept running. I unplugged it. I've changed three antenna's over the years and looks like I'm going for number four. Where do I get a new antenna? I just...
I’m wanting to remove the headlight bezels and grill to do a touch up paint. I’m a complete novice with paint. I have a couple questions:
What grit sand paper would I use to sand them first?
Do I need to prime or just paint?
What brand or rattle can paint would you suggest?
Thanks in...
I know this has been discussed in depth and I’ve read through many threads here. Spool Fool has a great reputation on a great product. I called a local paint shop to find out price on prep and paint if I were to go with an OEM style. It will be a little more money going with OEM style and...
I have old gm 5.3 with 225k miles. Good oil pressure. I’ve owned it since new always change oil 3-4k miles. Recently in the last 6 months of so I have heard a noise that sounds to come from the top of the motor like a valve or lifter noise. It happened a few weeks ago and again this morning...
Hello to you all. I’ve been away for some time. I come and go in streaks with this car. It’s been put away for a five year period twice in my owning of it. The last four years or so I’ve used it but not really. I’ve not started it once in the last year. The three years before that it’s...
I’m thinking of getting a used 12 passenger van. I need something that can carry 8 people with luggage and pull my camper. I got nothing against Ford but my last four trucks have been purchased new from GM. I feel confident in the GM product but I’m finding more of the Fords for sale. Also...
My service 4 wheel light came on a week ago and turned back off. Nothing had changed and I played it off as a fluke. Tonight I went to leave and the truck was in 4 wheel low. Nobody put it that way. It just decided to start up in 4 low. I pushed all the other buttons trying to switch to 2...
I have a friend that took in this gun as a trade for money that was owed to him. He said he would sell it to me for $200. I have no use for this gun but I don’t a have an over and under shot gun and I’ve always wanted one. Does anyone have any knowledge of this gun or model? What would be a...
I bought this youth model gun for my son a couple of years ago. He used it for spring turkey the last two seasons. Now at age 8 he wants to deer hunt this year. I would like to get another barrel for the gun with a scope so I can just switch back and forth depending on what he is hunting. I...
I uncovered the car today to find a hole in my front filler. One of the kids probably dropped something on it. They are original so it was time anyway. What are my options? I really lost interest in the car the last five years or so and have not paid much attention to whats out there. What...
My current Onkyo Integra Tx-88 in no longer functioning. I used it for DVD, VHS, and listening to cd’s. It ran four large Infinity speakers. Quality was excellent. I’m wanting to get another Onkyo and on the cheap side. I know nothing about receivers. Would this receiver work for me? I...
My truck burst a brake line due to rust. As I look at the brake module where all the brake lines go I can see its the lower left line. Does anyone know where that line goes? It with three others go up under the hood and as I try to follow it I continue to confuse myself. I hope that makes...
I’m a house buyer. I buy, sell, and rent. However the market is very tough right now. Prices are up and margins are thin. I have some money to work with so I was wondering if there are investments that you buy and sell on short term. I’m not into stock but rather physical things I can...
I have a 2005 GMC that I could use some help with. Driving home from church on Sunday the fan motor would only blow on high speed. It has a digital system and even though it would show a slow speed it would blow on high. I stopped at a gas station and shut the truck off and pulled the keys...
I’ve been looking at 30.06 riffles in the $600-700 range and one that seems to get a lot attention is the tikka’s. Stainless with polymer stock runs six bills. I did some research and berretta owns sako who makes the Tikka. I read in 2004 they had some troubles but I have yet to find any bad...
