Honda EU3000is Generator Maintenance Guide

We’ve had our Honda EU3000is generator for about two years. The only maintenance I’ve done is to run it for an hour about once a month and add STA-BIL fuel stabilizer to the gas tank. After checking the maintenance schedule in the owner’s manual, I decided to change the engine oil, clean the air filter and put the battery on a Battery Tender Jr. trickle charger.

USS Toledo Submarine – Fleet Week 2009

I was lucky enough to go on a tour of the USS Toledo (SSN 769) nuclear attack submarine late last month at Port Everglades during Fort Lauderdale Fleet Week 2009. The other ships available for public tours included the USS Forrest Sherman, the USS Ashland, the HMCS Preserver, and the USCGC Tahoma. For more, click on the link or thumbnail image below.

Grand Prix Brake Pads Replacement Guide

I recently noticed some grinding coming from the brakes on my 2001 GM Pontiac Grand Prix GTP. They also exhibited quite a bit of fade (mushy pedal) during hard stops. I knew it was time to replace the pads and bleed the brake lines. As usual, I took pictures and created a guide for each procedure. To view them, click on the links or thumbnail images below.
