BFG Ko2 has a $70 per tire rebate.... guess what I may buy. And then to top it off, most shops here cannot handle 35 inch tires to mount or balance. Going right back to Diversified in Toledo where I should have started in the first place and never looked around.


The place I can get a discount... Haha beat lead weights on my aluminum rims back in 92. That was not a good day.
If you get the ceramic beads, you won't need them to balance them!

As far as I can tell it's just the Rotella T6 that's on clearance. They are still carrying the other Shell types. Which I can understand, I can't ever remember saying to myself "oh boy, I can't wait to go to Kmart to get my oil changing supplies!"

Fuel Pressure Gauge

I finally received my Fuel Pressure Gauge. It's an APC gauge with a VDO sending unit. I found that kind of interesting. I will be attempting the install this weekend.

I flushed my cooling system with VC-9 and then used the Cat coolant.
Dropped my oil coolant delta about 5 degrees!
Very happy.
I also replaced my coolant filter.

Keep an eye on it for the next few weeks. It may jump back up do to stuff coming loose and replugging the cooler. If you don't have one now is the
time to add a coolant filter to the system.
