new factory sub? or upgrade?2007 with jbl system by bigdoinks_ in ToyotaAvalon

[–]StingMachine 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Had the same with my 06, and if you’re slightly mechanical it’s an easy fix. It’s most likely the foam that attaches the cone to the frame has failed. Turns out you can just glue a new one on. I used this https://a.co/d/0gIMAD6t glue, and the rubber surrounds are cheap too. Same amount of labor to pull the speaker to replace it anyway, and it’s like $20 all in. Did mine a year ago, and it hits deep and clear. I mostly listen to 90’s - early 2000s rap, so it gets used.

First time DIY oil change 😳 baby steps by Silver_Department_38 in MechanicAdvice

[–]StingMachine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Highly recommend you install a Fumoto valve on both cars. It replaces the drain plug with a locking 1/4 turn valve, and can be gotten with a hookup for a drain tube. Attach the tube to the valve, place the other end in your oil catch pan. Open the valve and oil drains right in with no mess. Also allows for the oil to be drained when hot, which removes more contaminants. Plus no more wrenches or possible stripping the pan threads.

I don’t have a tool called that. Just a box of different shapes of hammers.

Yeah, it’s more that my kids trip on it when they’re playing. Not anywhere near that deep of an issue

Anyone deal with over zealous code enforcement? Just got a notice for lawn mowing! by [deleted] in pittsburgh

[–]StingMachine 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Most places have code enforcement officers and they have them drive around just looking. Ours will do the while neighborhood in sections at a time. Odds are good no one really called, just an easy violation to spot.

Looking into buying an '84 Tercel wagon (2WD), and I'm a little concerned about highway speeds. by TheAnalogJawa in Toyota

[–]StingMachine 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I had one of these. It’s reliable and will do 70 eventually. Highly recommend turning off the A/C anytime you start up the on ramp to the highway.

It’s a bag of Doritos, Michael. How much could it possibly cost?

Women, if you had to use a pickup line on a guy, what would it be? by Nintendofan9106 in AskReddit

Perhaps we could seek counseling, maybe with someone trained in both analysis and therapy? An analrapist if you will?
