    help with a car part

    A check engine light is only for the emissions as already stated. The only filtration items for the engine that would trip the light are: engine filter, fuel filter, gas tank charcoal filter. The $170 sounds about right for a dealer to replace it. Fuel filter will cause drivability problems...

    RCBS Single Stage

    I have a Summit and have used it for several years. It is my only press and have had no problems with RCBS, Lee and Hornady dies. I got it because it sits flat on my bench with a wide opening to place the cases. Calibers I load: 9mm, 380, 38sp, 357, 45ACP, 45 LC, 454, 460 SW, 12.7 X 42.

    The joys of old car ownership

    Back in 2019 I got a Autel diagnostic tablet for about $500, with 5 cars to maintain from 2000 to 2017 it has paid for itself several times. It does cost a little over $100 for updates every year to stay current.

    The joys of old car ownership

    Mine is a 2000 s430, built in 99, it's 22 years old. The check engine light came back on, the scanner said one O2 sensor wasn't sending an output voltage. Just ordered two downstream sensors, should have them in about a week.

    The joys of old car ownership

    While on the way to the Mercedes dealership Friday to have the new SRS control module programmed I installed two weeks ago the check engine light came on. The tech told me what it was "Fuel trim banks 1 & 2", and cleared the code. I now have airbags back in service, they had been disabled for...

    Auto Computer INSANE??

    As others have said it is a low battery issue, what you were doing with the windows was re initializing them so the computer knows where they are. todays cars/trucks have a very heavy electrical load even when off. I invested in a diagnostic computer to find the problems a few years ago, it...

    9mm (9x19) What to do, Could use input.

    I have a similar problem, turns out that 70 cases are too long to chamber in my Lymann chamber checker. After separating out all the problem cases the reloading went fine with the others. I will eventuly take my 9 EZ apart and see if they chamber in the barrel, if not then try to rig up a...

    Should I Buy .223/5.56 NOW, Given Biden's Ban on Winchester Selling to the Public?

    The other manufactures will have the opportunity to pick up the slack. Where there is money to be made someone will find a way. That's why I bought some stock in a ammo producer.

    19 Kids and 2 teachers dead in Texas school shooting

    All the talk about the children killed, but very little about the two teachers killed. One of which was shielding her students with her body, why wasn't she allowed to defend herself and her students with a gun instead of defending them by becoming a target. There is no reason why a teacher or...

    Shotgun for small game in 410

    I brought a Mossberg Silver Reserve 2 over/under home today, according to the sticker on the box it was packed 10/18/2016. Cost was just under $800 after taxes, seems to weigh a lot less than the others that were available, and it looks like the grease in the barrels is a little dusty. Think I...

    Shotgun for small game in 410

    Thank's for the input, guess I will be visiting some gun shops and see whats available. I have been leaning towards a simple single shot, I don't expect to use it very much, just preparing for the paranoia in my family. Also needed a poor excuse to visit some gun shops and have an idea what to...

    Shotgun for small game in 410

    I am thinking of getting a shotgun in 410 for small game. This is incase the world goes to ****. I already have a good supply of 410 for use in my Governor and a couple Charles Daly's Honchos. The shot gun would provide a backup option for hunting where a 22lr is not practical.

    S&W Governor good ?

    I carry mine on a recumbent trike, just swapped the carry ammo from 45 ACP's to 2 rubber 000 buck followed by 2 #6 shot and then 2 45 LC hollow points. My biggest concern is 4 legged critters, I can't move very fast right now with a bum left hip and banged up right knee. I did load up some...

    Generic AR

    It has less recoil than my Thompson Center Katana Pro Hunter in 460 S&W Magnum, tamed the pain with a slip on but pad for a shotgun. Seems accurate considering I'm using a red dot and can't see for squat past about 15 yards, I was mostly concerned with repeated firing not so much with...

    Generic AR

    Instead of buying ammo

    I bought another 200 shares of Ammo Inc common stock today, figured it was better to buy a piece of the ammo plant instead of more ammo. According to press release they have sold their entire production run for the year already.
