About LinkBacksI parked my truck overnight and it has been quite cold up here in the northeast. I noticed yesterday that I was getting a lime green color dripping off my second cat as the snow melted off of it. This morning I also noticed snow saturated with a red color near the alignment bolt on my front right wheel. Im wondering if its just the color of the grease that soaked into the snow or a more significant problem...Thanks in advance

How about the washer fluid tank or hoses? The tank and it's connections are by the right front wheel as is the power steering fluid reservoir.

If a combo of all these whizz bangs met their claims you'd have to siphon gas out of your tank every second day and sell the excess horsepower on the third????
If your engine doesn't consume ANY oil it will seize???
