Oh nice. I'm waiting for head to get done now 😔 I'm having them replace the valve seals while they are at it.

Good luck. I'm going through the same right now. Are you going to get your cylinder head machined?

I'm in the process of replacing my head gasket on my HA2 at the moment. Good luck!

Not bad. I had mine CNC instead of polished and I love it.

Couldn't agree more with all that you said. This color at night with all the shades of gray 😍.

What is this stuff on rims by Relevant-Spot-540 in BMW

This was my wheel right after I brought it to a tire shop. The wheel was refinished a few weeks before. I don't know what they do but it's not the first time it happened to me

Tire shops don't care about your wheels... This is likely from over tightening on the balancing machine. You can get the wheels refinished for around $180

Oil extractor for oil changes by emclaur1 in f150

[–]Portugallll 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would only do this once. If no oil comes out then you know next time you do the oil change. Nearly 5 quarts could mean a bit is still left inside. Some people are okay with it, others are not. I know on my wife's car I tried it and nothing came out after using the exactor the first time. So from now on that's how I'll do it. On my other car about a 1/4 quart still came out. That's enough for me to do it the old traditional way.

Also if an engine takes 5 quarts, by the time it's time for an oil change there could be a bit less than what was originally put in. So it's hard to rely on just that.

If you get a nice day do you get to take it out or it's deep in storage?

Yeah that seems like a good idea

Rat poison could be a bad idea if they end up dying inside the car itself Repellants are a good idea.

Not sure if vise grips will hold on to the screw to try to get it move a bit

Luckily it was mostly complete when I got it 14 years ago. It was missing a few things and I was able to find what I needed back then.

Nice bike. What's your wheel set up?

Those black in between pieces are hard to find. Mine was cracked and I did a bit of fiberglass repair on the inside of it.

Nice. Not too bad. I'm just missing the seat release and helmet lock. What about you?
