I did find a great use for diesel that you would appreciate, though. I mix it half and half with used motor oil and it makes a great penetrating lube.

I couldn't figure out where it was, I went to my neighbor who has a Caravan also. (I just didn't unscrew enough nuts and bolts) He had his Craftsman socket wrench in his hand too!

Re: Basic auto Mechanic tools
I am a millwright by trade and backyard mechanic by chose . I use my tools my tools on a daily basis and under very tough conditions. I have craftman and snap on as well as many other brands and these days I find that as long as a company is willing to back their tools with a life time warranty they will be of good quality. Most tool failures I have had have come from years of over use.
this is my opinion Daral |
