    What to get the wife?

    Since we are talking electrical gifts for the wives, I got mine a 2024 Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV. She is still struggling with the idea of plugging it in. I told her just to make sure that it has gas in the fuel tank and not to worry about the "electrical tank" that I would take care of that...

    Interesting Article on why Hyundai/Kia GDI Engines Fail

    I am beginning to think that the GDI technology overall might having been oversold. The 2025 Ford Maverick with 2.0 ltr. turbo engine has lost 12 hp compared to the 2024 model. The reason is that Ford had to add a particle filter to the exhaust, just like with the diesels: 2025 Ford Maverick...

    Interesting Article on why Hyundai/Kia GDI Engines Fail

    Watch the whole video. Don't forget that the in the GDI engines the high pressure fuel pump is driven by a one of the engine's camshaft lobe. That is why it is credible that if there is fuel leakage from the pump plunger, it would end up in the oil. Interestingly enough, all the talk and...

    LA211 Loader Attachment Issue

    When I had (no so bad) misalignment, I used a jack to lift on the diagonally opposed end of the loader, by the bucket end, to "land" the unseated pin. Obviously, with the engine off and the pressure relieved in the system.

    When my kids were approaching their driving age, I convinced them that in order to learn to drive a car, they had to learn to first drive the lawn tractor and mow. My daughter got out of it immediately, after bitching and moaning, by crashing the tractor into the house right off the bat and...
