In theory, it creates the chance of dissimilar metal corrosion. If you drive where corrosion is a problem, perhaps it would be best to avoid it. But I've had aluminum riv-nuts in my steel TR3A for 1

Why not just put a HF car dolly under the drum/rotor? For most cars, there will be almost no weight on it anyway. You could probably even get by with just a wooden skid. Randall ____________________

Any auto parts store should have double-sided foam tape, used for attaching trim. Don't know if it's as strong as what they use for wheel weights, but it's worth a try. If that doesn't work, you can

Never tried to measure the mesh size, but the pickup screen on a TR3 is only a little coarser than window screen. Be sure the wire can't vibrate at the edge of a solder joint. The original TR3 scree

True, but they can also have other things that are more hazardous. Some contain rhodium, for example, which is both highly toxic and carcinogenic. Lead contamination is a very real possibility, too.

What I find ironic about this is that 5W30 is never thinner (less viscous) than 10W30 is at normal operating temperature. It's the second number that specifies the oil's viscosity at 100C, which is
