![]() The coolant reduces wear and tear, corrosion thereby checking the damage to the engine block. It plays an important role in making sure that your car’s engine cooling system is working well. Luckily I was able to get a good heater core and pipes from a donor vehicle which had only ever used Toyota Red.Coolant is one of the most critical automotive fluids. I forgot to add in my post #4 above that besides the fine silt in the cooling passages, also the solder for the heater core pipes had cracked and was beginning to fail, from the DPO who had used "universal green" coolant in it for several years. Other coolants might be good enough to use, or might not, and the issues they cause will take many miles until they cause you trouble, leading to the ease with which people using them can say, "it doesn't cause me any issues". Pink - meant for Gen5~ which are all aluminum and so the additives are different and as a result those vehicles can use a longer replacement cycle (100k miles). Those additives get used up so it should be replaced in 30k~50k mile cycles. Red - meant for Gen3/4 which used either an iron block, or had copper / brass plumbing in the heater system, and need the special additives in it for protection of those things. I heard you can stil lget the 50 / 50 but not around here. iIt used to come as a 50 / 50 mix but now its only a concentrate. its not that expensive though considering the red lasts many years. you can sometimes grab the aftermarket Zerex stuff off the shelf, but around here its impossible to find that as well so a special trip to the dealer is needed. The only issue is that you can't get the Toyota red anywhere like Walmart etc. ![]() Mix that as a 50 / 50 mix with distilled water and youll have an excellent cooling system.I even use the Toyota red in my older GMs. Id personally throw the toyota red back in since its some of the best stuff you can get for these cars. the whole IAT vs OAT vs HOAT coolant comes into play as the wrong one ca eat away at gaskets / seals etc.īest bet is to ask the guy what he used and if its compatible with your car. As long as it's the correct type of coolant its fine. If its Yellow, its probably Prestone.the best stuff is however the Toyota red. Your car takes toyota red or an equivalent. Since your shop put "yellow" in, there's no way of knowing if its appropriate or not without doing some research: find out the brand and type, and compare what their website says is in it to what the Zerex Asian Red says it has in it. Although that coolant had only been in for about 5 years, when I stripped the engine down I found a thin layer of very fine sand throughout the coolant passages, silicates which had already condensed out of the incorrect coolant that was used.Ĭoolant from the dealer is very reasonably priced, and equivalent Zerex Asian Red is available at all auto parts stores, so there really isn't much excuse for using incorrect coolant. I bought a used Gen3 Camry with old fashioned Prestone green in it. If the wrong coolant is used it may take years for it to become an issue. ![]() Modern Toyotas uses "Toyota Pink", Super Long Life Coolant, good for 50k~100k miles, but it is only used in systems designed for it (if used in a Gen3/4 can cause leaks because it can attack the FIPG sealer - as a result Toyota now supplies new water pumps and so on, for those old generation engines, with physical gaskets to avoid that risk). ![]() It needs to be flushed periodically, but not as often as the old green did. That type must be flushed every other year to keep up with the additives which are constantly consumed by doing their job.Ī Gen3 or 4 Camry uses the "Toyota Red", Long Life Coolant, which eliminates certain additives which can collect in the cooling passages, especially the silicates. The 'old school' green stuff had phosphates and silicates and other things to prevent rust of the iron block and reaction with the copper/brass radiator tubes and so on. The issue with using the wrong coolant in an engine is if the additives in it are wrong for that engine and cooling system materials.

Tape measure reading test1/17/2024 And if you don’t like the belt clip, it removes easily without the need to unscrew it. It clips easily onto a tool belt or pocket with only one hand. The body of the tape measure is comfortable to grip and handle, and the wide case might be preferable for users with large hands. However, it fell short of its 13-foot standout claim, only reaching an average of 10 feet and 6 inches before it bent during testing. With more than 10 feet of standout, testers were able to take many measurements on their own without waiting for someone to hold the tape. However, it had difficulty recoiling when the tester stopped it during a long or full-length recoil. The tape recoil was smooth and steady, retracting in a controlled straight line rather than wildly flopping around like many other tapes. Its bright yellow blade contrasts against black markings and large font, so testers didn’t have to struggle to see their measurements. Our tester found both inside and outside measurements to be precise, and the tape is very easy to read. After our drop test, the tape measure worked perfectly, suffering only minor dings and scratches to the case. The fully coated blade adds to the durability and extends the life of the tape measure. The Stanley FatMax is a quality investment, especially for professionals who need a tape measure that stands up to the rigor of everyday use. If you stop it during a recoil, it may have difficulty returning to its case without the assistance. Length: 25 feet | Markings: Imperial | Standout: 7 feet 7 inches | Autolock: Yes Because of its durability, accuracy, and affordability, this is the best tape measure for those looking for an inexpensive option. However, testers said the body of the tape measure was somewhat long, making it more difficult to fit into a tool belt.Īlthough testers felt the tape blade was somewhat flimsy, this tape measure surpassed its advertised standout length by 7 inches during testing. The tape measure held up impressively after our drop test-it had no scratches or damage after being dropped three times from a 12-foot ladder. Testers found both inside and outside measurements to be precisely accurate with this tape measure. Our testers noted that the recoil was smooth and quick, and the auto-lock feature made one-handed measurements effortless. Coupled with a dual-ended hook, the double-sided blade is versatile for all kinds of measuring and conversions. It also features double-sided printing on the blade with nail sizes and decimal equivalents for quick conversions. The tape measure features a nylon-coated blade with a bright color for high visibility. During testing, this tape measure earned perfect scores for its durability and accuracy. The tape blade is a little flimsy, making for a lower standout measurement.įor the best budget tape measure, this tool from Komelon is an affordable buy if you only need a tape measure occasionally. Length: 16 feet | Markings: Imperial | Standout: 13 feet and 3 inches | Autolock: No However, our testers could easily use the belt clip to attach it to their belts instead. The only drawback to this tape measure is that it was a bit too bulky to fit in a tool belt. The brand also claims the tape measure can survive up to an 80-foot drop. After dropping it on concrete in our testing lab, our testers found it didn’t have any visible damage. They also noted that they could control the speed of the blade as it fed out and retracted, which prevented the blade from whipping around wildly.ĭuring testing, it had an impressive standout of more than 13 feet, meaning it extended 13 feet from the case before drooping or bending. Our testers found that the case was comfortable to grip, and the lock could be engaged or released with just their thumbs. This 16-foot tape measure is also available in a 25-foot option for longer measurements. The tape measure has stud markings that are conveniently placed every 16 inches. ![]() The bright yellow blade features large numbers and double-sided markings. It earned a perfect score during testing across all categories, including performance, durability, accuracy, and value. ![]() The Irwin Strait-Line tape measure is our top pick for the best tape measure. It’s a bit bulky, so it might be a tight fit for a tool belt pouch.

Analog flip clock1/16/2024 There are two of each hour, like this: 12 am, 12 am, 1 am, 1 am, 2 am, 2 am. These leaves have hour numbers printed on them. The slower wheel has connected to it a similar ring of leaves, only there are 48 leaves on this ring. This ring is put into position and rotated so that one page falls each minute, showing a new number for the minutes. The "book" is opened vertically, and its pages form a ring. On the leaves are printed numerals so that, when a person holds two adjacent leaves apart like an open book, the two open leaves spell out a numeral, and flipping a leaf down increases the number shown by 1 unit. The faster wheel has connected to it a ring of 60 flat plastic leaves. The small hook which retains the hour leaves until the top of the hour can be dimly seen, retracted, in the inset. This is a synchronous electric clock which is kept to the correct time by the 50/60 Hz AC power grid. The narrow numbered wheel and knobs on the left are the alarm mechanism. The inset shows the metal tab holding back the top flap. Mechanism of a split-flap alarm clock, removed from its case. The wheels move continuously, not in steps.

Breadcrumbs for treacle tart1/16/2024 This recipe also includes a sprinkle of rosemary salt. Some people find it a little dense and rich, but in the recipe below the filling is softened with a little cream and eggs, and cut through with the zest and juice of a lemon to balance out the sweetness, a tip gleaned from Josecline Dimbleby in my Mum’s ancient edition of The Cook’s Companion. Served warm with a big dollop of clotted cream or ice cream, it’s the ultimate comfort food, dishing out heaps of nostalgia in a single syrupy slice. This classic pudding consisting of pastry, golden syrup and breadcrumbs is also a firm favourite of mine (you might have guessed that any dessert involving bread gets my seal of approval). Remove from the oven and allow to cool completely before removing from the ring and serving with a large scoop of ice cream or dollop of clotted cream.The perfect balance of flaky pastry & thick gooey filling Pour the filling into your prepared tart cases and bake for 25 – 30 minutes. Gently stir in the cream and lemon juice using a whisk, but stirring rather than whisking so as not to create volume. Stir together the golden syrup and ground almonds. Once cooled, trim the edges of the pastry so you have a neat edge. Remove the baking beans and cling film, then bake for a further 18 minutes, or until crisp and golden brown. Remove your pastry cases from the fridge and bake on a baking tray for 10 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown. Line each case with a double layer of cling film, fill with baking beads and return to the fridge to cool for at least one hour. Leave any excess pastry round the edges to allow for shrinkage. Working fast, lift up the edges of the pastry to allow it to relax into the base of each case and press in lightly. ![]() Lift the pastry gently, wrapping round your rolling pin if easier, and place it over the tart case. With regular, generous dustings of flour, roll out each disc of pastry to about 3mm thick. With each individual piece, bash the dough out flat with your rolling pin then bring the broken edges in to form a ball. Cut into 8 – 10 equal sized pieces, depending on the size of your tart cases. When the pastry is chilled, remove from the fridge and lightly flour a work surface. Roll into a ball, flatten slightly and wrap in cling film before chilling for 2 – 3 hours. Turn the pastry out onto a lightly floured surface and knead briefly. ![]() Add the egg yolks again and blitz until just combined. Put the flour and sugar into a food processor and blitz.Īdd the cold butter and blitz again until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs. I’ve added a little lemon juice to cut through the richness, but the zest of an orange or a restrained sprinkling of rosemary or thyme would also work really well.īest served warm with a cold scoop of ice creamįor best results, you need to allow a fair amount of time for your pastry to chill – do read through all the instructions before you start to make sure your timings are right! ![]() The mixture is sticky with golden syrup and indulgently loosened with a fairly large amount double cream – an extravagant addition which is no doubt the direct result of Bruce’s restaurant roots. I’ve posted a recipe for treacle tart before, and even made it into ice cream, but what sets this version apart is the inclusion of ground almonds – there isn’t a breadcrumb in sight. The poor Bakewell tart never really stood a chance. ![]() And then I remembered a recipe I’d earmarked in Bruce Poole’s cookbook that involves both pastry and ground almonds and which I’ve been wanting to make ever since I bought the book. With this in mind, I made a batch of sweet shortcrust pastry, popped it in the fridge to chill and ground a packet almonds in preparation to make my own version. Despite having stayed just down the road from Bakewell, I never got the chance to try a local tart.

Rider university wrestling1/16/2024 This Friday, he’ll be taking on NCAA qualifier Silverstein, who was injured last year this should be another good test for the PSU starter, which I expect to come down to the wire but in favor of Terrell. Prediction: Van Ness by decision Score: PSU 14, Rider 0 157 LBSīearclaw’s taken a step up this year, and is finally ranked after falling in the finals of the Black Knight Open to teammate Levi Haines. Shayne should win this bout, but by what margin might dictate how far he’ll likely get in March. This bout will be another good test for the true freshman from New Jersey - and not Rider’s wrestler, who’s actually a junior. Prediction: Bartlett by decision Score: PSU 11, Rider 0 149 LBS This may feel more uncomfortable than a lot of PSU fans are expecting for a bit, before Bartlett pulls away at the end. This year, Beau Bartlett is down at his more natural weight, wrestling a prior NCAA qualifier who redshirted last year. Last season, this year’s Rider starter at 141 was now 149er Quinn Kinner, who surprisingly put up a fight against two-time champ Nick Lee. Prediction: RBY by tech fall Score: PSU 8, Rider 0 141 LBS RBY got a tech against Koehler last year the only outcomes I see that aren’t very similar are if the returning champ decides to work on his top game rather than his Nolf-esque playing with his food, or if Roman doesn’t wrestle for whatever reason. Koehler isn’t a bad wrestler by any stretch of the imagination - he is a two-time NCAA qualifier - but he’s simply not Roman Bravo-Young. Prediction: Steen by decision Score: PSU 3, Rider 0 133 LBS Last season, transfer Drew Hildebrandt finished the pin parade against this week’s presumptive opponent I don’t expect Steen, who solidified his place in the linup at the Black Knight Open, but I do expect him to win by more than one or two points. #2 - Greg Kerkvliet (So., Grove Heights, MN) #30 - Terrell Barraclough (So., Kaysville, UT) #24 - Quinn Kinner (Jr., Mullica Hill, NJ) #20 - Shayne Van Ness (Fr., Somerville, NJ) Last season, Penn State hosted Rider to end the 2022-2023 regular season the Nittany Lions won that matchup 45-0 behind back-to-back-to-back pins from Max Dean, Greg Kerkvliet, and Drew HIldebrandt. The Broncs have five NCAA qualifiers on their squad this year, including two wrestlers who are currently ranked. They’re taking on Rider University, who typically wrestle in Lawrenceville, NJ the dual has been moved to Trenton, a much larger venue down the road. ![]() Two weeks after having five champs crowned at the Black Knight Open and crowning three wins (in three tries) at the NWCA All-Star Classic, the PSU wrestling squad is back in dual action this weekend, hitting the road for some non-conference wrestling.įifth-year senior, and two-time national champ, Roman Bravo-Young was the only member of PSU’s named starting lineup to not participate the weekend before Thanksgiving, which saw dominant performance after dominant performance the Nittany Lions look to continue that dominance in their trip to New Jersey on Friday night.
