Separate names with a comma.
They just calculate cranking amp based on voltage drop and current.
Even better if you also measure the voltage during the load test then you can calculate international resistance of the battery and approximate...
When the OEM metal gasket gets old it will get stuck to a sealing surface. It can (and relatively often does) get stuck to to engine so bad that a...
This doesn't sound like blocked exhaust at all. If you can hear the sound when engine is not running then it clearly can't be. As you hear it...
Tuned mass damper. It was attached to hole in engine mount bracket that the engine torque mount is attached to. Second tuned mass damper is still...
That's a throttle body heater hose. Hose is there from the factory but not like that. Perhaps they routed coolant to something? Maybe you could...

In the topic that you linked you talked about interchangebility between double hex and triple square. That isn't normally possibility as triple...
If hex key fits it's a double hex. I think on a gen 2 Prius those are 8mm double hex. Some Toyotas also use 10mm double hex. Weird that they...
