Damn... those Stang pics didn't come through at first. That wheel looks fan-damn-tastic! Are those halos on your seats from an 85/86 GT?

Yeah, I saw the testing on those oils on Youtube. Good stuff.
Especially in cold conditions. Comparable to Redline.
WPP knows their stuff, they have been around since the 1920's.

One REALLY common issue I've noticed lately with Windows 10 is that DNS needs flushed more than any other OS. Must be something wonky in one of the latest updates. Doing a DNS flush might clear up your network issues.... possibly a release and renew of the IP addy too.
Auto repair. Thanks for the tip. I'll give that a try.

I don't think I've ever seen it, but know it's a "cult classic." I'll have to hunt it up. Thanks for the reminder.

Thanks! I'm *really* liking it! The halos are out of an '86 Escort EXP, and I've got a second set stored away. (I think I paid $11 each at the U-Pull-N-Pay.) One of these days I'll probably sell them. I was originally hoping for a netted set, but those are next to impossible to find unless you want to pay through the nose.. I'm not sure they came in gray anyway, and don't think I'd want to put $700 headrests in a convertible regardless.

What do you think of Royal Purple ?

I found some for $50 CAD for 5 Quarts. Pennzoil & Castrol Full Synthetic are roughly $36 -$40 CAD for 5 Quarts.
I figured what the heck...

The Burbs is a movie I quote constantly. I also use many quotes from Friday, Dazed and Confused, and Hollywood Knights. Oh... Christmas Vacation has some I use too.

That is a killer deal on those Halo's. I wish I could run into some... hardly ever find Escort's anymore though.

Overpriced and definitely not needed for this application.

(The next time you feel like wasting money, you can just send it to me.)

Never used it... I've never seen the point in using it, TBH.

I don't even use it in my Mustang's. The 89 has Mobil in it, and Frankie has Supertech - both 10W-30. I'd rather spend money on a better filter.
