    Where to buy red Scotch-Brite Pads?

    Like the title says, what store, preferably a chain store, do you buy the hailed Red Scotch-Brite pads at? I can't seem to find them anywhere in Florida, besides on the Internet.

    SAE fastener twilight date for cars

    My Eddie Bauer Expedition is metric. My corvette is also metric, except for the main engine bolts - head bolts, intake bolts, rear pinion bolt, etc, it's just another SBC.

    My New Cheap Box.....and other pictures.

    If you mean the ATE Typ 200 Amber, I bought 2 liters of it and the ATE SuperBlue off TireRack.com for $12 each. The Amber is the same brake fluid - they are colored differently so when you bleed the brakes, you can see when the old fluid is completely flushed out. Blue and amber are fairly...

    School Me about Crowfoots (Crowfeet?)

    :withstupi O2 sensors, transmission line fittings, brake line fittings, serpentine belt tensioner bolt, LONG water pump studs. You can use them with a torque wrench some quick measurements and calculations. I like the flare-style ones.

    Craftsman Club ---January

    That's BS. They've looked up my name several times. I've been a member for over a year and STILL haven't received my card. I took a picture of my CC Membership # on my cell phone and use that if they ask for it now. Usually they'll have a card in their own wallet and pull it out if you forget...

    brand new 3/8 c-man flex head ratchet

    I HATE my 3/8" teardrop Cman, I LOVE my thin-profile next gen 1/4", 3/8", and 1/2" Cman ratchets!! I bought a flex-head 1/2" 2ft long breaker bar recently whose pin kept falling out! The new one doesn't have the same problem. I'm also glad you're giving them another try.

    Generic Craftsman air tools... no torque... is it my tools or the setup?

    I have the 33 gallon version of that compressor. BUT, I'm not using the tools in the grey case - tools didn't come with mine. Instead, I bought a 50ft line of 3/8" CMan air hose and use quick-connect fittings on it. I also have a corvette and it takes the lugs over without any effort. I bought...

    Air Compressor Tank Explosion Danger

    I drain my little 30 gallon C-Man almost after every use. Sometimes I'll let it sit overnight if I'm going to be using it the next day also. If you're having trouble twisting the drain valve, try some antisieze on it....

    They've had that buy one get one/2-for-1 deal for forever. It used to be called the "Google" deal. That's how I got my two cans about 6 months ago....It's a great product and the smell is very bearable.
