Double L Posted February 5, 2010 Share Posted February 5, 2010 We are suppose to get 2-4 inches. They said it was gonna start at 10 this morning but it's still raining. I need to change my oil since I haven't changed it since October due to the cold. I'm not gonna replace the filter since I figure I'll save a few bucks and it's more than likely still good. I asked for an oil filter and they have me the cheap off brand so I told them forget it I'll just reuse my FRAM filter. I did get a good deal on the Pennzoil, buy 4 get the 5th one free and couldn't pass it up since I use Pennzoil even though I used Castrol this past oil change. I prefer Pennzoil!

Nothing else, no seasonings. I'm not that big on sauer kraut, but he said it was delicious and to give it a try.Speaking of Old Bill, he called me yesterday. Said he was going to try to get his website back up when he can afford to. Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999.

Double L Posted February 5, 2010 Share Posted February 5, 2010 I can't wait to read his website again. I spoke too soon, now it's starting to sleet and freezing rain. I'm still gonna change my oil consider I got my grease monkey gear on (overalls). I did finally invest in an oil filter wrench because I had to wash my gloves in the washer and now I got them drying due to getting them soaked in oil the last time I changed the oil.

hatcity Posted February 5, 2010 Share Posted February 5, 2010 Snowing here now...i've heard we're gonna get anywhere from 14 to 28 inches supposed to snow all day and all night I got home about 10:30 last night and went by Wal-Mart on the way home because the weather channel said it was going to start early this morning and get real crappy real fast...apparently after midnight is when most of the "people of Wal-Mart" pictures are taken. Store was full of strange looking characters-including me. But at least I wasn't wearing pajamas like some of them were.I had to abandon my beer at the register because it was after midnight, but i've already made a beer run this morning I think we should get a bus and start off up north, pick everybody up along the way, and drop in to see hatcity for a few days. Any y'all are welcome to visit.Matter of fact, I could use a hand with this.grillzilla.bmp Quote Success is only a stones throw away.................................................................for a Palestinian Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/12459-stupid-snow/page/2/#findComment-49053 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had a can of creeces, and nobody else had even heard of them. I figured you or Bollweevil had, but neither of you was anywhere to be found.

I figured you or Bollweevil had, but neither of you was anywhere to be found. Ever had creeces, or creecy greens as some people call them? It's been close to 10 years since I had any of those greens. My ex mother-in-law sprung them on me.Can't find that brand here. That and some kale greens from her yard. They's all good, just got to put the right seasoning in em. mike Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/12459-stupid-snow/page/2/#findComment-49063 Share on other sites More sharing options...

hatcity Posted February 5, 2010 Share Posted February 5, 2010 Yup, thats about how it was. The owners of the property would have made any true redneck right proud.Didn't weigh it but I guess around 75k gross. Busted concrete. Had a guy with a Cat 938 come over, he got me this far then stood it up on two wheels. Guy with a 950 and in two minutes i was on the road.The guy in the pic says " Right up on the frame it is."

RowdyRebel Posted February 5, 2010 Share Posted February 5, 2010 What is wrong with FRAM?Google "oil filter test" and read the reviews of ANYONE who has ever cut one open...I have yet to see anyone recommend it's use.

Double L Posted February 5, 2010 Share Posted February 5, 2010 I learn something new everyday. Would the Carquest filter be any better than FRAM? Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/12459-stupid-snow/page/2/#findComment-49075 Share on other sites More sharing options...
RowdyRebel Posted February 6, 2010 Share Posted February 6, 2010 I learn something new everyday. Would the Carquest filter be any better than FRAM?I use Motorcraft on my Fords...Mack on the Mack...Kawasaki (or Honda...same filter, different packaging) on the Kawasaki....and if I'm changing the oil in the fiance's Dodge, I'll use a Mopar filter. You drive a Chevy, get an AC Delco. Can't go wrong with an OEM filter...if it's good enough for the OEM to put their name on it, it ought to be good enough to use on their vehicle to protect their engine. The OEM filter should be the MINIMUM standard filter you use. If you want to buy a better one, go for it...but never use a lesser quality filter.

Gambi80 Posted February 6, 2010 Share Posted February 6, 2010 Since my Mack takes sooo many filters, can't go wrong w/the filter kit from Mack...otherwise we order from WIX and get a bunch shipped and stocked up for whatever we've got.

Double L Posted February 6, 2010 Share Posted February 6, 2010 I'm surprise ya don't use Baldwin filters on your Mack like most people use Baldwin filters on everything else or Fleetguard. Actually I got a 350 Summit crate motor in my truck. Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/12459-stupid-snow/page/2/#findComment-49082 Share on other sites More sharing options...
