LSD Question30 Nov 2008 23:10 GMT4
LSD Question     1993 Buick Roadmaster 88k Mi 5.7L RWD

I have been looking for a software package that will allow bidirectional inputs so I can test solenoids, maniulate the EGR, IAT, etc.  I've looked at Autoenginuity and it doesn't appear to be what I'm after.
I already have the OBD2->USB interface so I am simply looking to ...

One never opened, and one that has been opened.
How many years can one safely keep jugs of this stuff and still feel safe in
using it ?   (same answer for never opened vs opened ?)
I guess you all think I'm a kludge for my feelings regarding electric     power steering...26 Nov 2008 18:40 GMT38

Tire inflation indicators26 Nov 2008 04:49 GMT2
A previous thread here asked about tire inflation indicators.
Just had an issue with mine today that I though I would share.

Brake Asbestos Concerns24 Nov 2008 14:31 GMT14
I've only recently entered the hobby of auto restoration, and for my first
project I decided to tackle a badly-rusted 1988 Honda Civic (not exactly a

repairs needed is beyond what any sane technician or ...
