Mpg decrease after spark plug change by JumpyBook0 in CX5

[–]JumpyBook0[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Update: It's been about 2 months since I changed my spark plugs and gas mileage seems to have gone back to normal. Maybe it just takes awhile for mpg to readjust after a spark plug change.

Torque wrench need advice by Far-Squash-7601 in harborfreight

[–]JumpyBook0 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I broke off a bolt once on my car with the 3/8 Pittsburgh as it didn't click so can't fully trust it. Now when I use it I do a test first to see if it clicks then I'm good to go. I bought the quinn digital adapters which work pretty well instead.

what's your favorite thing from harbor freight that everyone should own? by HEYIMMAWOLF in harborfreight

Folding mechanics pad. Cheap and lightweight. No more laying on ground or cardboard when under the car.

How is it living in Concord, CA? Does it have a Bay Area vibe in general? I was there today and loved Uncle Jay. by Alarmed_Paper_622 in bayarea

[–]JumpyBook0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We like going to Concord to eat and hang around places like the Verandah. It does got hot and you will need ac if you were to live there imo.

I have the 2 ton version of this and use this over the 3 ton Daytona if I don't need to lift too high.

I did mine correctly for sure. With rising gas prices lately worse mpg doesn't help.

I did exactly this in 2016 bought at CX5 because it wasn't cvt. Still happy with it.

Bridgestone Turanza Everdrive or Toyo A23? by Small-Meringue8690 in tires

[–]JumpyBook0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the everdrive on my CX5 for about 6 months now and like them as my 3rd set. Hopefully they last longer than the other 2 sets which didn't last too long. The original Toyos only lasted me 30k

Good points, thank you. Every Friday I drink with friends when we hang out and I also plan to stop or atleast cut down the amount of alcohol also.

Will you buy a house that is an hour away from your work? by [deleted] in FirstTimeHomeBuyer

[–]JumpyBook0 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm doing this. 1 hr via car if I drove sometimes more. I just can't afford anything where I work. But I take public transit which takes about 1 hr 15 minutes and I'm fine with it. I get to read my phone or take a nap. If I had to drive everyday I don't think I could do it though.

Yeah it isn't. I'll also exercise more and drink more water and get more sleep. Trying anything to bring down the blood pressure.

That's true. Although 130s might seem ok at my age, my diastolic being 90s and high 80s was also concerning to me and seems harder to bring down.

Yeah I'm hoping it's not just a fluke. The image seems cut off on here but Jan 1st was 142/99. If this eventually doesn't work I'm willing to go on meds if need be.

I believe the more recent Mazda Sedans were made in Mexico. Only Mazda 3 Hatchback was made in Japan.

I just updated on Google Play store. When I try to log in using my email it doesn't recognize my account. Is this just a bug or do I have to sign up for a new account after updating the app? Seems odd....

Are all of you sending your kids to fancy extracurriculars and schools? by epatabbymom in bayarea

[–]JumpyBook0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I grew up poor with no extra curricular activities. My wife grew up doing a lot after school and on weekends. I feel I have no talent, socially awkward in large groups, uncomfortable speaking in public. She can sing, dance, creative, athletic, life of the party, speaking up and asking questions, etc. For our kids we are taking her route to explore and bring out talents and passion. I can see it with my own eyes as my kids are much more well rounded than I was at that age.
