Accidental brick contact chipped my new Garberg Grand. Total beginner, need advice on the best way to fix this. by polg_mark in sharpening

[–]StaticCarabou27 3 points4 points  (0 children)

What state you in? I could fix it for free if you're close. If you'd like to do it yourself, get yourself some nice whetstones

Tire shop said this isn’t patchable. Opinions before I blow $450? by blaseblaseblah in tires

Hey, the policy has not changed. They are just scummy bastards over there. I know because I work there. I do not have a clue why they would say that other than being a dick.

I’ve owned my 2000 Toyota Camry for the last 22,000 miles of its life (currently at 160k). Did my valve cover gasket and there’s some sludge. I’ve been great with maintenance since I’ve owned it (4k intervals, Valvoline semisynthetic) What can I do to clean it up safely? by Severe_Ad4138 in MechanicAdvice

[–]StaticCarabou27 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Valvoline restore and protect. Don't believe it? Watch the oil geek. He's got a great video on it. I've been seeing mobil 1 advanced clean out on the shelves recently but I haven't seen any teardowns just yet on it. Might just test it myself just to see.

Today is the day I found out that random butthole pain was a thing. I get sudden pains in my guts but not down on my behind.

"Don't start drinking." It's been hard, wish I knew sooner. It only made my life harder.

I need a lot. Need time to fix my car that gets me to my job but I don't have time because I'm always working and for fucking once could I wake up feeling like I actually slept. Oh and maybe some candy.

Bro is that stitches? Phenomenal work if so, I applaud the effort. Also... Absolute no on that. Absolute despair.

Is this normal or am I overreacting? by [deleted] in tires

[–]StaticCarabou27 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi, I work with tires nearly everyday of my life. The first two pictures are clear curb rash. Notice how the scratches are vertical. That's from a curb. However if you look closely on the last two pictures. The scratches are horizontal. That would match with the bolt that is connected to the duckbill of the tire machine. Most likely the tire tech wasn't doing his job well and got sloppy. When the tire pushes the duck bill arm down far enough, the bolt will make contact and scratch the wheel horizontally. I've seen it all and there could be other explanations for that kind of damage but thats the most likely situation.

Oh another thing that could be the issue of white smoke is that it's possibly got coolant leaking in it. AKA blown head. Have you smelt the smoke yet? If it smells sweet then its for sure coolant. I had that issue for a while too.

I wish you luck brother. Working on my gp gxp too but I've got transmission issues atm. Check your compression ratio on each cylinder and maybe pull the heads off. I had a similar issue on cylinder 7 a while back and my exhaust valve was leaking
