  1. FWIW changing the oil on any engine without changing the filter is like putting on a clean pair of pants while still wearing a shitty diaper!! Oil and filters are cheap! Engines are not!!
  2. Gibsons and Whata are also advertising ethanol free premium fuel.
  3. Easy??? Obviously you have never been in an honest snowmobile race never mind an endurance race.
  4. Krown is a wonderful product. What sucks is the applicators. I still have my 99 GMC that has been rustproofed with Krown every year since new. Original Krown owner sold out and haven’t found a decent location to do a Krown job since. I am thoroughly disappointed in the retailers’ quality control.
  5. A marina close to me sells unbranded regular marine fuel with no ethanol. There is no stations on Simcoe or Couchiching with high test fuel. On the Trent System at Big Chute they are selling unbranded mid grade ethanol free marine gas and no other gasoline with any other octane ratings. In Georgian Bay there is a mixed mash of stations with everything you can imagine.
  6. Open up the pinch weld in the door bottoms and you can get a quart of milk when the door drain holes plug up. There is no fixing that.
  7. I hope you become C free Bill!! Nobody deserves that crap!! Fight hard!!
  8. She might not make it in a bank then. Sounds like she has some compassion for people.
  9. Next step up will be bank manager repossessing houses!!! Lol 😂
  10. Well Ski. The exact situation you just described is why I always carried my paperwork. I have no problem going to court but refuse to argue with a bottom feeder flat foot.
  11. Tire tanks never did work any good for small leaks anyway.
  12. OCD? Like me? Old Crochety and Decrepid?
  13. Who is your dealer? McCauley is no longer a dealer.
  14. Merry Christmas everybody. Don’t know what we will end up with over the next week but highways 400, 169 and 11 are closed from Orillia and north to Novar and highway 124. Imagine. Sledding on the 400!
  15. The big yellow signs that farmers asked me to put up on sled trails said “Farmers feed cities”.
  16. Yes. Usually everything is seized up. If I can’t adjust them, they get new hardware kits. It is not worth my time to save those parts. The customers usually complain about that so I give an economics lesson. $65.00 for a new kit or $100.00 for me to clean and lubricate it.
  17. Your choice. I grew up in the Parry Sound area and snow has always stayed on wet swamps and unless packed down or rained on, the swamps never froze until late winter. Same with the ground. Two generations older than myself also told me this many years ago.
  18. Sorry PLC. Snow won’t stay on frozen ground. The wind blows it away. Frost goes in after the snow is keyed into the ground from wet snow that then freezes.
  19. Impaired driving is described and charged as a criminal act. Totally separate from HTA and MSVA.
  20. Many torsion axle assemblies have a serial number plate/badge on the center of the axle under the trailer. That will tell the manufacturer of the axle the exact specs so you can get another identical axle. Also if they have that number, they can manufacture another axle for you with the same specs.
  21. Been there done that. Trying to retire but the dumb questions just keep on coming!!!
  22. Rubber damage by dry rot, wear, or uneven wear rarely causes lack of lever movement unless it is so bad it is jammed into the outer axle tube. Your explanation of tire wear is right on the money. Best explanation I have seen yet!! 🙂
  23. All brands. Depends on trailer, number of axles, load and type of driving as well as age and mileage.
  24. I don’t understand why a suspension arm that is not moving enough would cause tires to wear on one side. If the toe is correct, it wouldn’t wear unevenly at all providing load a tire pressures are in range.
