  4. When your favorite and most-trusted mechanic calls you up and says, "WOW, I'm so proud, it's my best ever project, I just finished up installing for you that super-custom roll bar setup that you've wanted for so long."
  5. I always hand-tighten the filter .... never had one come loose. I've been using one of these for a long time to get the filter loose when changing oil. Back before this tool was invented, I used a set of ChannelLocks to loosen the filter. This new tool is a wonderful invention ....... and these days I use it to add a small extra bit of "tighten" when installing a new filter. No reason not to. Cheers, Carl
  6. UPDATE I finally found out why my pal didn't show up for the Cars & Coffee he and I had planned last month. Seems that he was relaxing over at Woodley Park, and then he couldn't get his car started. He tried to get there, but it just didn't work out for him ........ Cheers, Carl

  15. Well, it's a week later and another lucky day of sunshine, warm weather, and dry highway. AND, I got an early morning call from an old pal, he said he would meet me over the hill on Redmesa Road, next to the big ol' rock near where he and his ranger pal used to hang out and tell tall tales. I got there and waited awhile, but he never showed up, so here's a "minor edit" to a couple of the pictures I took while I was waiting ..... Cheers, Carl

  19. I can't resist posting these two pictures, taken 13 June 2017, at a BMW Cars & Coffee here in Simi Valley ...... this is Abe's '74tii ....... during the get-together he was asking about alternator removal and such while we were enjoying some coffee (I think KenH picked up the coffee tab that day). Then a mere 2 weeks later Abe got this "alternator removal" thread going ....... Cheers, Carl
