2 years and 5K miles ltr I have copious white smoke again.

I did use a URO brand product, did I make a judgement error by going budget?

If it is any solace, I found that its easier the second time around.

In terms of pricing, over the long haul and for a lot of different parts, Pelican's pricing sort of averages out - they might be a little higher on some items but they were also cheaper on other items.

Pelican is from where I purchased mine. A little more $$$? Yes. However, their website has so much valuable information... how tos... etc... that I consider it a small cost. Now... if the disparity in pricing, compared to their competitors, is off the chart... then I'll look elsewhere.

Pelican Rocks.
