he's in no rush to sell and he won't take 500
he outright tells you you impatient dipshit
>>15412199
If it's been listed for 1500 with no drop for over a year its pretty obvious hes firm on price.

Need help.
Working on a buddies 92 Ranger.
Last sparkplug wont come out, its stripped and the porcelein is broken.
Weve cleared out an 1/8th of an inch of rust flakes/pb blaster.
Porcelein spins freely so we can get a grip on it.
Weve tried lightly smacking a 9/16 socket on it but no go.
Help us /o/.
Come on cunts
>>15412168
Can't stop, hammer time!
>>15412168
It's stripped?
Are you sure?
Or is it just rusted to the block?
Have you tried an long extension on the spark-plug socket and wrenching with a Breaker Bar?
Last resort will be renting a Psark Plug Removal tool, like a Lisle, but I've never had a problem quite like this so I'm not sure how well those tools work.
For me stuck plugs always come out with a breaker bar.
And remember kiddies, when doing plugs, don't forget the anti-seize grease!
>What are your go-to brands?

Also, my older V6 recommends 5w-30 but I only have 10w-40 sitting in my garage. I live in +95°F area every single day. Is it ok to use just this once until December or should I just man up and shell out for 5w-30?

Carquest filters.

Hey, /o/, the transmission on my truck just shit the bed, and I'm just gonna get a new car. What type of car should I look for? It will be used, probably <2010, and must have rear seats, for my daughter. Any suggestions? I like to drive fast sometimes, and have a 40 minute drive to work. Inb4 "lol read the sticky, kys"
Also, car porn incoming for your efforts.
Is there a budget to consider?
>>15411648
I probably don't want more than 500 a month, and I make 60k/yr, but not really a strict one.
>want to get into dirt biking
>never ridden a motorcycle
>neighbor's willing to trade me his 250cc kawasaki for some break work on his nissan
>runs fine
>good condtion from what I can tell
How the fuck do I get into dirt biking other than just fuck around in the boonies for a few days and watch youtube?
I'd ask my neighbor to help out but he's flying out next month and none of my friends...

get some gear so you don't break your bones
>>15409402
Looking at pads, boots, gloves, and helmets right now aside from other general research.
>>15409398
Bumping for interest.
I also want to start. Nothing serious, just trail riding and such. I'd like something that's legal on road but also performs well off road. Sort of like pic related, Kawasaki KLR 650

FF rally cars are more prevalent than 4wd rally cars.
>>15410025
Watchu mean tho? There are a ton of FF rally cars.
>>15410043
>>15410054
but everyone started rallying in RR cars
I'll never rally
I'll never be fast
I'm probably too old anyway since I don't have daddy money

The only thing it isn't better at is off-roading, in which case I'd go hilux
Everything else though
Ranger
Have a favorite color? Post a picture.
The rarer the better.
This is Ford Midnight Blue.
Anyone have any idea what this color is called?
I've only seen it on Dodge vans from 70's and 80's
Mercedes Cypress Green.
When the light hits it, it looks just like the green from old Ray Bans.
Also, is it just me or do metallics from back in the day change color in bright light way more than what they're using know.
Mopar Green

I put a new intake and exhaust on my car, what do I need to tune? Do I just get one of them things that plug into the OBD port and I'm good to go?
When does it become worth it to get methanol water injection?
How do I make this bitch go fast?
It has a 3.8L V6 in it.
Why were late 70s and 80s muscle car v8s so weak compared to 60s early 70s? The displacement is the same, but the horsepower/torque is just horrible. I know gas became more expensive after the oil crisis, but what exactly was different in the engine that made it so much weaker?
Why do you think the meme is a young 18-24 wrenching on his Mustang camaro challenger charger ?
They were all working on th e car to get more power by getting rid of emissions and tuning carbs
>gross ratings are a lot higher than SAE Net hp rating
>higher octane leaded fuel
>factory over-rating
>higher compression
>more lift and duration from camshafts (terrible emissions)
because american engineering is le superior!!1!
