I bet you got those gloves at Walmart, LOL... I like Lukas oil additive myself for both my custom Jeep and car. I also add Marvel Mystery oil to the fuel tank of my any thing I have that runs on gas. The amount depends on how much fuel the tank holds. For example I use a entire cup in the Jeep it holds 21 gallons of fuel, and I use 1/4 cup in the car it holds about 11 gallons and I use 1/8 in the lawn tractor. It helps keep the fuel pump in good condition, keeps the injectors in the car and Jeep clean, and jets clean and general good carburetor health via the small engines like my law tractor, generator, even the two strokes like the weed eater and chain saw. Stay safe, and wishing you good trucking... Thumbs up on the video....

I didn’t get a good luck at how the hood sits on that rubber block (maybe it’s a dumb idea) what if you put a piece of el-cheapo low pile carpet on that rubber block?

Saw the hood bracket when you had the hood up !!! DON"T know if it will cure all the squeaking ,,but less is all better on the hearing !! Great video even if the audio got messed up !!!

All shopping is shut down, no sit-down restaurants, likewise hotels and any tourist attractions, casinos, etc. Keep on trucking my friend.
