    E-85 nearby

    One other thing I was trying to get a straight answer on is. Is it true that the 93 octane has truly had the anti knock/detonation additive in it? If that the case I may have found the reason for the knock I've started to get. Ever since I filled up recently with pure Ethanol Free 93 I have...

    E-85 nearby

    An e-85 station just opened nearby and I've been reading many posts about this and I'm going to be heading by this station and I need confirmation. Will it be ok to add a couple gallons of E-85 with 5 gallons of 93 Shell V-power?? Will I notice a difference or do not do it?? I'm about to...

    Oil pressure pump or gauge sender?

    That's what I thought as well in fact I was thinking while cruising perfectly at 55MPH wouldn't my light come on along with other issues?? The guy at glowshift said the sending units can go bad on occasion and he wanted me to check the ohms at idle, engine off, and with some RPM then give them...

    Oil pressure pump or gauge sender?

    I really think it my sending unit to be honest. I'm VERY anal about my Buick. I've sold 3 in the past one guy actually flew all the way from Canada and paid me $24K cash after he realized, saw, drove, had it inspected twice. Ask Brian at Gbody how anal I am he's sold me things he even told me...
