Oil & AMSOIL By Pass Filter Change on 67 VW Beetle

Image
Click for larger image VW Beetle Oil Change, By-Pass Filter Change and Tightened Fan Belt Click larger I changed the oil and tightened the fan belt on my 67 VW Beetle. I installed AMSOIL Z-Rod Synthetic Motor Oil and changed the AMSOIL By Pass oil filter . AMSOIL Z-Rod protects flat tappet cams as well as protects from rust and corrosion for long periods of storage. AMSOIL Z-Rod Synthetic motor oil for classic cars or hot rods has extra zinc for the enhanced protection of the flat tappet camshaft this engine has. I had been using AMSOIL Dominator Racing Oil , but that's for 2,000 plus horsepower engines and this engine only has about 53 horsepower.

Trump Hater John Bolton Defends Trump's Anonymous Source Comments

Image
John Bolton indicates Trump never made comments reported from "anonymous source" reported on my media sites. Bolton hates Trump. Bolton was there and said Trump never said anything of the kind. If one of his enemies is defending Trump saying this "anonymous source" is a lying sack of schiff, I believe the "Anonymous source" is most likely a lying sack of schiff.

AMSOIL Saber® Professional Proves Itself In Stihl® String Trimmers Professional-use string trimmers, mowers, backpack blowers and other equipment can run continuously in hot, wet and dirty conditions for months straight. In these conditions, equipment can wear out seasonally, representing the perfect environment for putting AMSOIL products to the test. Get the SABER’s edge Before the 2016 summer landscaping season, we purchased three new STIHL FS56RC string trimmers and gave them to Duluth Lawn Care, based in Duluth, Minn. The company relies on a fleet of professional-use mowers, string trimmers and other equipment to provide fast, high-quality lawn-mowing and other services to its 4,500 clients. Historically, the company accumulates about 600 hours per season on each of its string trimmers prior to replacement. Typical use included continuous daily operation in high heat; wet, humid conditions; exposure to airborne dirt and other contaminants and the general daily abuse of...
