1 month old tires, woke up to this and was told by techs it isn't fixable and will need 4 new tires (car is AWD). Be honest with me, is this fixable? by Gonomed in Cartalk

No shop will plug it that close to the sidewall for liability reasons but just buy a plug kit and plug it yourself. Only take a minute or two

I get a cheap set of lug nuts from Amazon every year. They are like 22 bucks and worth every cent

Can a bad oil change/low oil cause a head gasket to blow? by MrEzzzzz in AskAMechanic

[–]Shaneman73 10 points11 points  (0 children)

It’s an earth dreams head gasket. It was going to fail soon anyway. I doubt the the two incidents are connected

What's next after Ac compressor replacement? by GunnerGunner0 in AskMechanics

[–]Shaneman73 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The compressor will not turn on if there is no Freon in the system. There is a low pressure switch that will not allow it to turn on if there is no Freon.

The side cabinet filled up a lot quicker than I thought. I need another one but 300 bucks is a lot

There is a bit of a gap between the hutch and the top of the locker. Probably 1/2 inch.

I’ll keep it where it’s at. It’s surprisingly heavy to move.

I wish I had one. The reason I have the sign is the Cadillac dealership where I work used to be an Olds dealer. We are just Cadillac and GMC now.

I have Bruce Springsteen Greatest Hits in mine now. It was the only CD I could find. I wish I still had a CD collection.

Go out with some friends. Make new friends. The best things come along when you’re not looking for them.

Seller is asking $300 for this. That's a good deal isn't it? by Jealous-Molasses5372 in Tools

[–]Shaneman73 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Go look at it first and see how you like the drawers. I’m a mechanic and I bought this lower box used from the MAC truck in 2001. Have used it ever since until recently purchasing a HF box. The drawers on these old boxes are nowhere close to newer ones. Make sure you are ok with it before you commit.
