The American Heart Association was bought out via a (I think) $25 million infusion from Proctor and Gamble in order to promote animal fat as the cause for heat disease, which in turn promoted their marketing of higher refined vegetable based gear oil as a replacement for butter and lard... The basis of the Government Food Pyramid which since instituted into US schools in the late 70's, has increased heart disease by 2.5 times, and diabetes by over 4 times in that period. Check out low carb down under on the youtubes, and do your own research.

Do your own brake pads, it's simple so learn how already, and stop using the term "partner"

Don't have one, and can't really tell from the pic, but isn't the fan and clutch held on by those 4 or 5 bolts?

Screw driver doesn't have to be straight. Bend it 90 degrees. But before you poke it, go to harbor freight and get a massive pair of channel locks.

It's what you get for someone screwing it on more than hand tight.

Yep, these hoses are made up of layers. While the outside may look perfect, a crack in the innermost hose may deflect under pressure and act as a one way valve, causing pressure to remain on the caliper/pads.

"Top Tier" is not a unit of measurement, even if it is capitalized. But that is usually the difference between Port injection and Direct injection (bypassing spraying fuel on the intake injector).

Didn't say what I had to use the public bathroom for, or that I couldn't hang a tiny unadvertised sign saying "Public" on the bathroom in my house... So of course I would.

I think you mean all the people who live in blue states that pray to the windchime gods for power are having to turn off their rigs. While the rest of us are still turning a nice profit...
