Depending on what kind of parts you want to do, consider getting a toaster oven rather than a full-on oven - I have one in the shop for pre-heating parts, curing paint and cooking new brake pads. *Ve

See Carroll Smith, "Prepare to Win", among others. New brake pads exhibit "green fade" - fundamentally the outgassing of various binder agents as they are heat cycled for the first few times. This is

Pull the pan, clean it out. Put on a new filter, fill with the cheapest ATF you can find. Drive 50-100 miles at low revs. Drain, change filter, fill with oil. It'll smoke a lot.

First, make sure the trap has a chance - plumb it in after 30 feet or so of line, or an air cooler, or both. The moisture has to condense before the trap can remove it. An easy way to do it is to buy
