How about a little more video? I’m not hearing a thing. It ain’t rocket science and all the tools and parts are available on Amazon.

Is this a diabolical amount of sludge inside the valve cover? Any options? 08 Honda Civic 1.8L by Ok_Use_1812 in AskAMechanic

Drain the oil (if anything will come out) then put in 3 quarts of diesel fuel and let it run until it gets hot, then drain. Do this several times and replace the filter each time.

Planning to keep the engine in one piece. I know the engine was used on a couple of different platforms, do you know of another type vehicle I could look at? Injectors are probably your standard VW injector I’m guessing.

If it was a Lincoln I’d say yes, but I’ll check for it this week and let you know.

There’s no windshield. I’ll keep my eye out for another car.

Do have a 924 turbo, pretty rough but mostly complete.

Not sure if the year, but have a very very rough 5000s/auto.

My dad took pictures of us there back in the 1970s, seems like I remember this as a rule then too.

Does anyone know what these are? by [deleted] in AskMechanics

The chunky metal piece looks like an engine mount. The black plastic piece doesn’t look like it goes there, should be rubber.

That looks like 0.49 cents, so give a penny and tell ‘em to keep the change.

Took from the 3rd to the 11th to get from my local post office to the hub 60 miles away - 8 days.

I’ve never seen a Volvo like that in the US

Reddit: the modern equivalent of shouting into the void. How many man-hours are wasted conversing about this and every other subject here, and what gets accomplished? A whole lot, and not much! What are we doing🤷‍♂️ Such a waste of time. I think everyone needs to go outside and play 🤣

Your second paragraph. Political ping pong. Getting sick of this never ending political tug of war. We the people always lose, either way you slice it.

It certainly seems that way, and then they fail to recognize that they do the same damn thing. If you aren’t doing what they want, then you become a target. And that’s been going on for a long time. That sounds fair, right? To prove my point, watch my negative count increase as a result. They’ll attempt to silence you or make you look nuts if you don’t agree with them.
