    Ha, ha, ha - what do you mistake me for, a girl :p? I don't cook anymore (besides with a crock pot and microwave) and left all the pans with the ex since he was still going to have two adults in there as soon as I moved out.

    Best one for these side drains probably would be an auto-trans. funnel:

    Guess I was lucky. The truck was outside sitting at the airport from Sunday until early Friday and, although there was a bit of grumbling, she started right up :thumbs:. The shuttle driver did inform me that if my vehicle wouldn't start, flag down the next shuttle and they would send someone to give the battery a boost :yes:

    Those are nice to have on hand for certain jobs. Another great investment, got one of these years ago only $4 bucks.

    Wonder if they would tell you that at Logan.....doubt it...probably tell you to have your credit card ready :emptywallet:if they even acknowledged that you might have trouble and if there would be help available

    Heck, I don't even use my George Foreman (which I love for steak and burgers). I just don't enjoy cooking so see no need to get more stuff I don't use. I buy cooked chickens and do scrambled eggs in the microwave. My kitchen only has about 8 sq/ft of counter space and I save that for my coffee pot, fruit bowel, knives and dish drainer. I have to do anything else on the stove - I have covers for the burners (gas stove) and a marble slab that spans the covers so I can put the crock pot up there. Although I love food, I just don't find cooking that important. Been known to have a couple TBL of peanut butter covered in Maple Syrup for dinner . . .

    Any idea how old the battery is? Or did you install a new one? This just illustrates the need for full synthetic oil in northern climates. 5w-30, 5w-20, 0w-30, etc are great things to have in an engine in our area and farther north.

    Battery was in it when I bought the truck November of 2015. They did test it when I had the oil changed a couple of weeks ago and they gave it a "green" (green/yellow/red)

    Do use full syn oil

    Am leaving soon to go to HD to use up a 10% off coupon that expires tomorrow. Will look to see if they have one of those. If not, at least I'll be in the state's 3rd largest city so will have choices for finding such a contraption

    Keep an "eye" on that battery, esp. in cold climates. A "typical" battery lasts between 4-5 years. But if you keep hearing a "groaning" slow start, time for a new one. The best battery I've used to-date is the Ever-Start Maxx at WalMart.......well made battery. The one in my Trailblazer is on year 5 now, and no slow "groaning" starts....yet.
