    Anyone ever used Engine restore?

    You are right about one thing...you don't know much about motor oils. That would require research ;) Mobil 1 will not slow a leak down...not even a little.

    Anyone ever used Engine restore?

    Hmmm...Mobil 1 is a Grp III base stock. It's not even a true syn oil ;) An ester base stock (Grp V) like Red Line *may* help swell the seals a bit, but by the time a leak has developed, it's usually too late. Plus PAO (Grp IV) and ester based oils do a very good job of cleaning out...

    Oil Catch Can Question

    That is correct...you want the catch can plumbed in the line between the PCV ports and the accordion hose connection. The primary vac is supplied by the TB 90% of the time...under boost, a weak vac source is supplied by the intake to the turbo. You do not want a filter on the catch...

    The (old) Official Gun Thread.

    Clueless - the article you refer to is correct...newer bullet technology is superior to stuff like the old Black Talon. You can acquire some of the Ranger Talon ammo if you look around. The Speer Gold Dot is also an excellent handgun ammo...the Federal Air Marshals use it as a standard in the...

    Should I be worried? Is this a gas leak?

    LOL...ain't it the truth ;) Aircraft will cure ya of ever touching fluids of any kind. One I was associated with used LOX (liquid oxygen) for the O2 system and would drip when freshly filled...touching LOX will ruin your whole day. Another used hydrazine as the fuel for an EPU (emergency...

    Anyone ever used Engine restore?

    Nope...they use the same method...super thick base. The result is the same. Gonna have to use the "old fashion" method...replace the seal or gasket material ;)

    the 'what is this?" game

    A couple hoses you kinda "have to" buy at Toyota...the small 90 deg ones that connect this hard line to the top of the head and to the water neck in the front come to mind. That is unless you can find a generic hose the right diameter w/ a 90 deg bend. ;)

    Oh yes...much better than Mig. I was kinda surprised when I read that in the 1st post.

    the 'what is this?" game

    That is the heater return for RH drive cars...it's not used on USDM cars. Normally, it has a rubber plug/cap clamped on it...MIG welding is a more "permanent" solution ;)
