Kalgorn Posted October 18, 2005 Report Share Posted October 18, 2005 What kind of Magnaflow though? Wish there was a Checkers around here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IBuiltMine-o1oo Posted October 18, 2005 Author Report Share Posted October 18, 2005 im not sure...they didnt have any center in center out, just a canter/ offset they were straight through with the steel wooll packing. oh and what do you have an AutoZone...checker blows. Id take Auto Zone over anyof them.....been to pep boys once in Utah, that was nice, too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SigEpCutlass Posted October 18, 2005 Report Share Posted October 18, 2005 man wtf damn it. I want a sale Autozone is our shittiest store out east. I prefer Pep Boys and Napa to them anyday. Advance Auto Parts is okay...but not all that much better than Autozone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kalgorn Posted October 18, 2005 Report Share Posted October 18, 2005 I hate Pep Boys. NAPA is where I go for auto parts but I go to AutoZone for paint, cleaning stuff, oil, filters, etc. I have no problem with them. I think it depends on the location.

BurneroftheRice Posted October 19, 2005 Report Share Posted October 19, 2005 i think it depends on who works at the store, it seems to be that all of those "big name" auto parts stores are the same except for who works there. YOu can have a NAPPA where the people are dicks and no nothing of cars, and then you can have a Autozone where everybody is knowledgeable. Its a toss-up really.

sdwhite Posted October 19, 2005 Report Share Posted October 19, 2005 I went to advanvce a couple weeks ago. I asked them for an inductive spark tester. You know, the little pen-like thing you hold against a plug wire that glows when the spark fires. They didn't know anything about it...but, they had a $15 job that was just a spark plug with an aligator clip that grounded the electrode. I'm like...hell...I can make one of them for nothing...just ground it to the block and viola. The guy said, "Why do you have to ground it to the block? You don't have to ground it...it'll arc no matter what." Cough, cough. Yea...not too knowledgeable. I asked a NAPA guy once for a magnetic oil pan plug. You know, so if there are any metal shavings in your oil, they're attracted to the plug. He looked at me stupid and asked, "why the heck do you want that....pshaw...no, we don't have that here." I don't go to NAPA or Advance anymore. My favorite is CarQuest. They actually KNOW cars there...but, not a national chain, I don't think.

JNGTP94 Posted October 20, 2005 Report Share Posted October 20, 2005 i hate both checker and autozone, but i hate autozone more!, Napa and advanced seem to be teh best around here, back home it was scharf and bumper to bumper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mfewtrail Posted October 20, 2005 Report Share Posted October 20, 2005 I don't have a problem with any parts stores here really, I get told "we don't have THAT" a lot, but then I show them how to find it or look it up. I usually frequent CarQuest or Advance Auto here lately, but I go to all the parts stores for certain items(we have a ton of no-name stores here that are pretty decent).
