    SHOW US PICS OF YOUR PETS - Poll added

    My hart is stukkend. Paar maande gelede het ek 'n klein Malinois reuntjie gekoop. Hy het só diep in ons harte gekruip, of in my of my vrou se arm geslaap, of met sy snoet in my of haar nek. Nog nooit so 'n liefdevolle hondjie gehad nie, uiters intelligent ook, jy wys hom iets een of 2 keer en hy...

    Oil viscosity - who can you trust?

    Problem is many tractors share oil between gearbox, diff and hydraulics, so you need a single oil compatible with all 3 applications.

    Oil viscosity - who can you trust?

    This is what they said, correct? The higher the second number is, the thicker the oil is at that defined temperature condition. So a 5W40 will be thicker than a 5W20 at the defined temp. This is 100% correct, so nothing wrong with their first statement. then further down... Viscosity...

    Oil viscosity - who can you trust?

    No, that is not why you have multigrade oils. Their main existence is for cold starts where a normal SAE 40 will be too thick and not provide adaquate protection at low startup temp. Therefore you use a 15w40 multigrade which will act as as say a W15 would normally act, even at cold temp, but at...

    Oil viscosity - who can you trust?

    The higher the second number is, the thicker the oil is at that defined temperature condition. That would be applicable to both numbers in fact. The higher the viscosity, the thicker the oil, the slower it will flow. Compare SAE30 vs SAE90 for instance, SAE 90 has higher viscosity and is...

    Zinc Electrode?

    Palma in Moz gets attacked

    Other than attacking a coastal town in Mozambique, what are the capabilities of Al-Shabab, do they pose a threat to SA, given the sate of our military? If SANDF gets involved, will it have the potential for retaliatory attacks to spill over into SA?

    Palma in Moz gets attacked

    Seems like the Palma attack have left dozens dead. Many was fortunate to be evacuated alive, others not. Anyone with first hand news? Why was Al-Shabab tolerated up until now, why were they not confronted months ago?
