I put on some new Hankook Kinergy PT tires due to their low price (and I am not planning to track / push the car to the limit). I highly recommend if looking for a budget friendly tire option in 215/60/R15

This is a great tool, however, I am uncertain how I should be reading the tension. I have a belt that has 1K miles on it, and has not been retensioned. As far as I know, the tension decreases slightly as the belt is used. As such, I expect the readout to be closer the the U (used) belt spec and not ...

Thanks for the helpful advice as always Tom,

I confirmed that the brown cables did not have a white stripe, definitely ground cables in the picture.

I hooked up everything to the radio, turned the ignition to accessory, and...nothing. Confirmed that the head unit isn't bad, as I was able to get ...

Interesting, I guess the brown wires it is in terms of properly grounding everything. Would soldering / heat shrink be the best method to "connect" the large ground wires to the small 22 AWG black wire as pictured below? A step down crimp connector seems to be out of the question due to the large ...

Hi all,

Any radio experts around here? I am in the process of redoing the radio wiring in my car, plenty of questionable mickey mouse type stuff from whoever installed the previous unit. I am stumped about what to do with the brown ground wire pictured below (need to go from the large ground wires ...

Any suggestions on a coolant pressure tester for a NA 944? I am planning on keeping the car for a while, and would like to own one rather than lend one from my local auto parts store (have checked in the past, and it always seems to be "checked out" anyway). I have seen mentions of the Stant 270 ...

Anyways, at this point it was time to get the switch panel installed and test that all of that still works. I'm not sure if I have the wiring harness correct. Obviously I have something wrong here. It is pushing on the switch from the back with some pretty good force. I tried moving it around and ...

Thank you for the 3D printing suggestion, I will have to look into that. The 3D printing options that I currently have access to only allow PLA printing. Not sure if this will hold up over time but I hope that I can combine this material with an epoxy base to really strengthen the area.

Any ideas ...

Now I know this topic has come up a few different times on this Forum (as well as others), but I am in the process of refitting the cardboard-like door card panels to my car. I didn't realize how bad of shape they were in, and am having particularly a rough time with the area right where the window ...

I like this answer as I already have some of this grease sitting around...

Any idea what product I could use to clean off the regulator? I am considering my trusty can of brake cleaner, but not sure if there is a gentler way to clean off this crusty old part.
