    Car out of storage: Should I pour Marvel Mystery Oil or motor oil in each cylinder?

    That MM oil is good stuff , I use it for cutting oil, fuel additive, air tool oil etc. A place I worked at years ago used it for gearbox oil that where in the freezers. I wouldn't hesitate to use it in your cylinder head before start up. BCD

    Materials for garage ceiling--Metal VS 4x8 panels

    I read here on another post about cell phone service and wi-fi service being an issue with the interior walls and ceiling of a shop being lined with steel. Anyone have this problem? I'm leaning towards steel myself but may consider something else if this is an issue. BCD.

    Name a tool you hate

    I just thought of another one, is pliers or wire strippers that have the crimp or tool on the inside of the handle , you know on the handle side of the hinge. More than once have I pinched my skin with this style. I have ground this off on most of my strippers . BCD.
