Hey guys real quick. I can't find a definitive answer on the type of o-ring I need for the fuel injectors. I bought the Standard pack from Rock Auto and it's 12 of the brown. Will they work on both ends? Or do I need the black ones?

When I relined the brakes on my daily driver I ordered Brembo rotors, expecting a premium product. Needless to say, they came through made you-know-where. (A previous set purchased years before were manufactured in Italy.) So it's not just U.S. companies doing this.

Hi dear friends,

I want to buy this product, What do you think are some benefits ?

Does it help to reduce the temperature of the vehicle ? Thank you.

I get some pretty bad rattling on cold startups, I'm pretty sure I'm starting dry. I am using a wix filter, does anyone know why this is happening?

So today is a sad day, the first one I have lost an XJ, we had a hailstorm come through last Thursday and well she is totaled.

My question is do I take the full amount from the insurrance and go try and find a new one or buy it back and use what I get to start fixing her?

They also totaled another of my cars which totalled 5700 they are gonna give me 3600 for mine...

That's a lot of money for parts and to rebuild my Moyer and put the lift I want under her

Or I can take the money and and find another non hail damaged one...

It's been totaled. Even if it's cosmetic damage, your title will be branded
