I tried to mow the lawns. The mower had a different idea...View attachment 3967245It crapped out half way. Don't know what the fuck is wrong with it though.

And yes. I know the lawn is long. That's what happens when no one brings back the mower for two months.

Looks like the new line trimmer might have to finish the job.
That's not long..i don't mow until its to my waist.. fuck mowing.

Low freon will cause it also. My mazda was doing the same thing. Both will cause the same symptoms.

The higher rpms cool it better with low freon.

My mazda leaks about a can a year or year and a half. I'm not tearing into it when a can cost 5 bucks at Wal-Mart.
If you are regularly putting in Freon you have a leak that's also letting moisture and contaminates into the system. Eventually you'll have a major failure, probably the compressor. At that point you are supposed to replace the compressor, evaporator, drier and condenser together due to contamination. Spend the $100-150, gey the system vacuumed down to see it it holds pressure and to remove moisture, fix the leaks(usually just o- rings), have it recharged with new oil and refrigerant. It should last year's.

I hate those do it yourself A.C. recharge kits. As far as I'm concerned they are like leak stop for radiators, only to be used on something that's going to the junkyard soon. I've had to fix 3 cars in the last 2 years that needed compressors because the owners didn't want to service the system correctly and used those and took out their compressors.

Amsoil and RedLine are my faves. I lost my Amsoil connect and have gone to Mobil 1, as Walmart carries it. I find it to work well.

My beef with Amsoil is that they use a three (or four) ball friction test that is more appropriate to greases than oils.

I have never had a motor oil-related failure. I think I am buying peace of mind by opting for the premium brands. I don't know, but so far so good.
There's a report out there done by one of the OTR maintenance company. Petty much says if an oil says it meets spec, it's just as good as another. Wally world dino 10-30 tested just as good as Mobil dino 10-30. Some of the "specialty" oils like Amsoil do have proprietary friction additives do perform "better" but at what cost? I'm not spending 3x ad much for Amsoil when Wal-Mart oil does the job just as well.

Fuck cars.:finger: My friend popped the radiator in her car last week, I ordered one to have it here when for when I did it. Of course she can't afford the brand name, so I get the fucking piece of shit cheap Taiwanese knock off.:finger: Should have been an easy job. It showed up late Tuesday afternoon. I was a nice guy, went and got her car and left my car there. Didn't get back till dark. I spent most of the night trying to get it done and around midnight I realize it's made wrong and I can't mount the fans.:finger: So now I have no car, her cars dead in my garage for god knows how long before I find a radiator and I'm supposed to be leaving for vacation in a couple days. I was at lest able to get a ride to get my car. I found a used one, but the junkyard is dragging their feet on getting it removed, and them who knows of its even good.:wall: I told her to just buy a factory one, but she cant afford the $400... I hate cars! I hate working on shit for people that can't afford the right parts :finger:. It's not even 10am and I've already had 2, fairly stiff, drinks. FUCK THIS SHIT!:finger: :finger::finger::finger::finger: being nice isn't worth it

I read that motor oil actually expires. Is this true?
I've got several quarts of Penzoil 100% synthetic in my garage that are at least five years old... :-(

Dino oil can go bad, it starts breaking down. Synthetic won't, but it can absorb water if it isn't sealed. If its cloudy, it's got moisture in it and I wouldn't use it in a vehicle. Otherwise it's fine. I use my older, questionable, oil in my yard equipment.

My girl gave me 80 anals for the year. I've only cashed in on 3. I've recently started working out because I want to make the other 77 times count. Putting a fat dick inside a tiny asshole is harder then it seems. My weak base doesn't help.
What was the occasion when you received your book of anal coupons? Birthday? Anniversary? Anal Day...?

No good deed goes unpunished.

I have a couple of hot friends that bring their cars to me for oil changes and brake jobs and to help me smoke weed of course I have more friends that do the same but just not as hot ohh well.
