Update on my parts: Wednesday I received a message on my phone one of my parts was in (one and a half weeks (good)) Thursday I received a call telling me the same part had arrived (?) but no mention of the rest of the stuff I ordered. Saturday moring I stopped by and found all my parts had...

My experiance with ordering parts at BPS hasn't been great (so far) either. I ordered parts in March was told the wait would be two weeks. Two of the three parts came within ten days (good) The last part I was told would be mid to late April (4-6 weeks) out of the US. I was ok with this. By mid...

I have used Castrol GTX 10w40, (car stuff) works good but I find Castrol brand stuff expensive. Last two years I've been using Lucas mototcycle 10w40 synthetic, (pn# 20710) should be available through most auto parts stores.

I agree with Skyler, either typo with the doulble 8 or he didn't use the decimal.

I've been in aftermarket parts for 16 years, your pricing is way out. full retail on 03 Montana fuel pump - 494.90 (112" wb) 430.94 (120"wb) fuel pump assy 03 town & country $395.74 Rotors on 2009 Cobalt SS $118.44 each. I find parts for VW reasonable price wise, but engine stuff relating to...

One trick I've seen in a machine shop is to hit the bolt with a hammer and punch. I think this is to shock the bolt, breaking free the threads. Also if you are drilling out the broken bit, the punch will dimple the bolt, giviing a spot for the drill bit to start. I've also had some luck with...

My buddy did it to his 650 v-star, he liked it. I thought it was kind of tin can sounding. But he made a point to me. He said he wanted a different sound, so if he drilled out the muffler, and didn't like the result, he was going to change the pipes from stock anyway. Didn't seem to have any...

I'm doing my part for th e economy. I'm looking at moving to a Goldwing. I"m feelin" old.

Bigger trucks with the diesel power are not great for daily drivers, they are expensive to fix, and unless you need the power to tow or haul lots of stuff all the time, a gas powered truck/suv would be a better choice. You can put a trailer behind just about any vehicle.

My wife was charged with with using a hand held device in Toronto last year. She went to court last week, cop didn't show, it got thrown out. As far as the distracted driving, I don't buy it. I think these people are just poor drivers. I don"t blame the phone.

I would suspect low compression is the issue. However since you"ve ripped it all apart it's too late to do a compression test, Since it's all apart get the cyl deglazed, and install new rings. You should be fine.
