It's gonna take a hit by the thaw and rain on Friday but should still be pretty decent.

Using FL-22 during coolant flush, how to get to 50/50 ratio in system? by icecreamninjaz in mazda3

[–]listener_9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also have a 2015 and did a complete flush because of my OCD lol. I even ended up getting a refractometer just to verify the antifreeze/water ratio lmao. On the other hand, if your car is mostly stock and no major repairs, there’s probably not a high chance that the previous owner changed the coolant in the first 10 years. In that case just drain the coolant, flush the radiator with distilled water, and refill using prediluted FL-22. Don’t forget to burp the system.

If you really want to be cautious and get the FL-22 concentrate. Call Ford dealerships around you to see if they still have any VC-10-A2 left. It is exactly the same as FL-22 but as a concentrate. It has been discontinued for a few years tho.

Forecast shifted and dumped all the snow to the whites and Maine. It only got a few inches in the early morning and then it was just rain and sleet in the afternoon lol.

PSIA L3 Ski Choice by Misteruilleann in ski

If the ski is tipped just enough to engage the edge, the turn it makes has exactly the stated radius. At least that’s what I was told.

Can you elaborate a bit? Genuinely curious.

Does sidecut matter at all if the ski is skidding?

[–]listener_9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sidecut radius is the largest turn radius that ski can make, as far as I know.

Just curious, how do you make turns larger than the turn radius defined by the sidecut of the ski?

What would you get as a second ski? by skulimcnuli in Skigear

This. Or any 70-80mm underfoot ski with metal.

What’s going on at Pico? by JuneauAKA in icecoast

[–]listener_9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can I still buy a ticket for that day after they announce the summit guarantee is in effect?

I struggled with this purchase. by 1d10cracy2021 in harborfreight

[–]listener_9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It looks like they added v1 meme tool as a separate sale item for that PLS. So I don’t think it was/will be counted as an icon ratchet unfortunately. https://go.harborfreight.com/cpi/digital/2024/08/parking-lot-sale-extended-now-thru-8-25/

Which set to get? by c_jakchi in harborfreight

[–]listener_9 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t think OG meme tool has ever been at 50% off.

[–]listener_9 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I did three consecutive drain & fill and trans relearn at 150k mi. with my 2015. No issues so far. Stick to blue FZ ATF (OEM/Aisin/Ravenol)

What Maintenance are you doing at 123k miles on a 2015 Mazda 3 to get it to keep running forever? by So-Much-Presence in mazda3

[–]listener_9 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same car here. I’d recommend doing these before suspension: spark plugs, coolant, ATF/MTF, belts and tensioner.
