2008 Ranger Workshop Manual (Paper) Review

2008 Ranger Workshop ManualIf you want true detailed information and specifications then this is for you. Want to know what wire 86 in the PCM plug is? This will tell you. Outstanding electrical schematics with every wire number and color. Mechanical breakdown for every piece and part. Very good detailed troubleshooting sections for everything you can imagine. Costs more than a Chilsons or Haynes but it is also 6 times as thick and year specific. Worth the price in my opinion.

Permatex 24378 Non-Flammable Electrical Contact Cleaner Review

Permatex 24378 Non-Flammable Electrical Contact CleanerPermatex 24378

This is a rather large aerosol can considering how much is needed for a single switch or potentiometer. I don't think Permatex offers a smaller size. Most current consumer products don't have switches and pots that can conveniently cleaned with spray.

Permatex 82180 Ultra Black Maximum Oil Resistance RTV Silicone Gasket Maker - 3.35 oz. Review

Permatex 82180 Ultra Black Maximum Oil Resistance RTV Silicone Gasket Maker - 3.35 oz.I bought this in order to seal some parts of my car's valve cover mating surfaces.The shop I paid for the timing belt service to be done did not do a good job.Valve cover gasket never leaked before, it started leaking after they put a new gasket.Obviously they did not clean the mating surfaces.I did the job myself since I did not trust the mechanics at that particular shop.It does not leak now.
This product also helped me repair parts of glass molding (rubber parts around the rear glass) that started cracking, falling off.
All in all it is a great product and is worth the money.

J-B Weld 8267-S STIK Review

J-B Weld 8267-S STIKLike 45 billion other people, I saw the Mighty Putty commercial on TV and thought it sounded great. My husband sighed and said, that's been around forever, and a lot cheaper, too.

So I looked around and lo and behold, J-B Weld IS "Mighty Putty," minus the horrific shipping and 'processing' fee.

I bought this at a local hardware store to test it out (around $3 if you can get find it; my husband suggest an auto parts store.) It does work like the commercial says. I wanted to put up a towel rack in a guest bathroom without drilling through the tile.

Well, it worked. Set up in a few minutes. Next day you could hang Billy Mays from it, and I don't think it'd break.

I'd highly recommend the J-B brand, unless you've got a lotta spare cash and you want to make sure Billy Mays retires in style!

R12 R-12 R22 Super Seal Stop Leak METAL AC Compressor Review

R12 R-12 R22 Super Seal Stop Leak METAL AC CompressorApparently it did work, but the container was nearly empty when I got it! It was kinda expensive and a disappointment to have a nearly empty can, but what can I do?

Click Here to see more reviews about: R12 R-12 R22 Super Seal Stop Leak METAL AC Compressor

Product Description:
You are looking at a unique product called Super Seal. It is designed to not only repair your basic rubber leaks commonly found in o-rings, gaskets and hoses, but will also seal leaks in METAL! It will repair the metal in your Evaporator, Condenser, Compressor, Accumulator, and Receiver/Drier. Super Seal contains micrometal fibers that react when they come into contact with the air, therefore forming a patch on almost any surface. It is one of the best stop leaks you can purchase. Super Seal will not damage your A/C system in any way. Even if some of the micro fibers do not get used they will safely remain in your system until another leak is found, then sealing that leak as well! Super Seal will also work in Home Air Conditioning units both large and small, as well as other R-12/R-22 systems such as an old refrigerator. This kit is easy to use and comes with everything you need to install it, including instructions. Like all stop leak products there is no guarantee that Super Seal will fix every leak. However if Super Seal can't stop the leak, it is doubtful that any stop leak will. To get your Air Conditioning system back to peak performance you should check out our differant Freeze-12 Refrigerant Kits. Keep in mind you will need an additional can tap for any other items you purchase due to the fact that the tap used with the super seal product becomes unusable after it is installed. Also there needs to be some refrigerant present in the A/C system to properly install the product.

Bar's Leaks 1000 Engine Repair - 16 fl. oz. Review

Bar's Leaks 1000 Engine Repair - 16 fl. oz.This product worked very well for me. The engine has more power especially in the lower gears and at cruising speeds the car seems to shift less and is smoother in the hills. It didn't quiet the slight ticking noise on start up that I have but I think I may have a weak oil pump. (will be taking the car in to have that checked) It took driving the car the full 100 miles to notice a difference - as noted on the package, it may be necessary to drive for 2 days or 100 miles for results. I would definitely recommend this product. I have also used their radiator / cooling system treatments in the past and they work very well too.

Chilton Repair Manuals - Chilton Toyota Pick-Ups/Land Cruiser/4Runner 1997-2000 Repair Manual (68604) Review

Chilton Repair Manuals - Chilton Toyota Pick-Ups/Land Cruiser/4Runner 1997-2000 Repair ManualThe Chilton manuals deserve the reputation they have, which is that they cover the specific field very well. For a do-it-yourselfer, an automotive manual is indispensable. An illustration of how do you get the door handle off is worth much money. There are standards among car makers, but they all have special little ways to do many things. That is why these books are so useful.

Haynes Ford Explorer and Mercury Mountaineer (2002 - 2003) Repair Manual Review

Haynes Ford Explorer and Mercury Mountaineer Repair ManualFirst off, for you Mountaineer owners, you should know that the only Mountaineer content in this book is on the cover, and the odd "oh, this is the same on the Mountaineer" comment once in a while.

This is a very typical Haynes book, that goes into great detail telling you how to fix things you'll never need to fix, and skips over parts that you will.

That said, Haynes manuals haven't changed that much over the years, while cars have gotten far more complex. A great deal of car maintenance now involves dealing with computers and diagnostic scan tools. Haynes manuals cover none of that.

So while it helps with basic things like brakes, suspension and so on, don't expect this manual to help you do anything complex.
