    Question about burning used Motor Oil as Fuel.

    Before I process my oil, I put an old tee shirt in the filler hole in my 330 gal poly tank, dump all the stuff in the hole. Not sure what filter rating to apply to the tee shirt, but it sure does grab a lot of poo. So far most of the oil Ihave collected has been coming from word of mouth...

    Would anyone be willing to donate a brake shoe for a deuce

    How are you storing your Deuces? (Plural)

    Master Cylinder help

    Doghead, When I was reading through the posts, it looked like there were two choices, DOT3 and DOT5 and then some commentary on not to mix the two. I was going to go with DOT5, am I rolling the dice and taking too big of a chance. Whats the odds there is DOT3 in there. Any way to tell? Tommy

    Guys, I can’t thank you all enough for the information. I am amazed at the info you guys can pull up. As I get better with the search engine, and the terminology, I think I can narrow down the posts a tad bit better. The content on this forum and the very people who lend their experience so...
