I'm looking to buy a Stihl 4 cycle weed eater. The dealer says 30% more power and it just about weighs the same as a 2 cycle. It is supposed to be new technology because you still mix the oil with the gas. Does anybody have one or is anybody familiar with them? Many Thanks! :cool:

Forrest I've used Valvoline 5W30 for the first 200,000 miles, at 3000 mile intervals. Because Saturns had higher oil consumption than most other cars, I was told by a Saturn tech that valvoline did not have any wax products in the oil (which keeps the rings from sticking). That's why I used...

Hello Forrest I have a 93 Saturn SL2 16 valve. I bought this car brand new in Baltimore, MD at the first Saturn dealership in the area. It had 1/2 mile on it. The car currently has 325,000 miles on it and has had absolutely nothing go wrong with it, just general maintenance. I would...

Hello guys! I'm thinking about buying a harley. I've always wanted one and I'm not getting any younger. I'm looking at a new Fat Boy 15th anniversary. It comes with the screamin eagle big bore kit, which gives it 95 cubic inches vs 88, chrome wheels, 14k gold trim. The dealership will sell it...

Hello Guys, The question I have about the '99 - 53 block is: Are any of the failures due to the fact of hard towing and bombing. Has anyone had one fail that has had no excess strains? I talked to a guy in Glen Burnie, MD today at cummins and he said out of about 300,000 #53 blocks, there...

What are your thoughts on a pellet stove? I have a 6 year old house with a brick fireplace that has a 25 year old buck stove insert. This stove is dirty and not very economical. I have been diagnosed with 5 bad discs in my back, so that puts an end to cutting wood anyway. I have been looking...

Hello guys! I've had my 700 EFI for about 2 weeks now. But the weather has been so bad, and I've been so busy, that I have not had a chance to ride it until today. I had it out for about a 1/2 hour today. I think I'm going to like it. Went to Chatanooga TN. Got the bike, front brush guard...

Sorry it took so long to get back to you guys. I finally got it fixed. It was the vehicle speed sensor, but it did not store a code the first time. But they did order a vehicle speed sensor, and when the part arrived, they checked it for a code and it did have a vehicle speed sensor code in it...

I was driving along and lost my speedometer, and the ABS and Break Lights came on. It is not the clockspring, because I still have the cruise control light and horn. I drove about 400 miles and now it's working again. Do you think it's the vehicle speed sensor? Many thanks!

I'm interested in purchasing an ATV Polaris 700 EFI and was wondering if anyone has one? If so, how do you like it? What are the pros and what are the cons? I'm leaning towards the Polaris because of the price. I live in southwestern Virginia, I contacted six Polaris dealers, only one has the...

I live in southwestern Virginia, and was on my way to Fairfax, VA to see my dad. Traveling north I-81 at exit 200 and a white dually power stroke went by me that had six people in the truck, 2 large bails of hay in the back, pulling a 30ft horse trailer full of horses, and a 15ft horse trailer...

A friend has a 98. 5 and wants to know which would be the best power box. He just wants to add more power, and wants a box that is easy to install. I remember reading something about the vanakan box that just plugs in without cutting any wires. What do you guys think? Many thanks!

Hi Guys! I have a question about tires. I have the stock Michelin 245's with about 40,000 miles on them. Still have about a third of the tread left. I now live in rural Virginia and I'm having a problem in the snow. These things are awful. Can someone recommend some real good on & off road...

Thanks guys for all the great responses. It's good to know there are a lot of 24V's with over 100K without any serious troubles (I sure feel a lot better now). I guess I'll keep it for another 30 years :D Everybody have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year :)

Just wondering how many 24V's there are with over 100K miles on them (Any problems, cracked blocks, headgaskets, valves, etc)? I'm planning on keeping this truck a long time. I hope to see some big numbers out there. You guys are great! Many thanks! :cool:

Just curious how many of you 24V's have over 100K without any major problems (cracked block, valves, etc. )? I'm planning on keeping this truck forever, I would like to see some big numbers. You guys are great! Many thanks! :cool:

Dieselman I live in Tazewell, VA. It's about 70 miles north of Bristol, TN and about 120 miles south of Ronoake, VA. I used to live in Baltimore, MD, but I had to get out of the rat race. :D It is very rural down here. It's taking some getting use to, but I like it. Thanks for your reply.

I just want to say, I've driven over a million miles in my life. I've owned a lot of cars and trucks. My '93 Saturn SL2 Auto is the best car by far of anything I've owned. This car has 240k miles on it and the only thing I've done is regular maintenance. Not one single breakdown. As far as...

I've been a city boy all my life (unfortunately), but now I live in Southern Virginia. I am looking forward to deer hunting with some friends. I was wondering if anybody could recommend a good video on field dressing and butchering deer meat and any good recipes. Thanks very much for the...

I was in Abingdon, VA in the antique shops yesterday and 3 harley davidsons pulled up and parked. These 3 bikes had big block chevy motors in them (I know what a chevy big block looks like). Has anybody else seen any of these and know what they cost? Are they a production bike or is it custom...
