By Brenda ErdahlThe third weekend in August

is fast approaching and thatmeans it’s almost time for thegreat Gear-Head Get Together.

A car show and much, muchmore, the Get Together, whichcelebrates its eighth year on Sat-urday, Aug. 18, has become afavorite event among gear-heads and non-gear-heads alike.

Last year an estimated 600 to700 vehicles and 100-plus mo-torcycles were showcased at theevent that took over much ofMaple Lake and featured musi-cal entertainment on multiplestages, a swap meet and an as-sortment of food.

This year Mega Jump BMX,a Minnesota-based group ofstunt bike riders will furtherwow the crowd with their tricksof daring. They’ve performedfor audiences at the MinnesotaState Fair and the WrightCounty Fair. Besides daringstunts on everything from skate-boards, BMX, scooters, inline,mountain bikes and mini mo-tocross, they are known for toss-ing “fun stuff” into the crowdand giving away a pro-levelbike to a lucky kid at the lastshow of the day.

Free to spectators and partic-ipants, the Get Together hasseen tremendous growth sinceits inception, doubling in size itsfirst three years, and continuingto grow each year since. Itdraws thousands of people fromacross Minnesota, NorthDakota, South Dakota, Wiscon-sin and Iowa for a unique dis-play of mechanical ingenuitythat, in the words of its founderScott Chantland, offers “noplaques, no trophies, just a

bunch of gear-heads hangingout and looking at machines.”

Where else can you find a1939 motorcycle with a Chevyengine and a frame made out ofFord Model T parts, a vintageradial aircraft engine that revsup to thrill the crowd, a souped-up lawn mower and a pristineclassic Corvette all in the sameplace.

Because of its immense pop-ularity organizers have decidedto expand to take up even moreof Maple Lake. This year gear-heads will find exhibits andfood at the Community Parkjust east of downtown on Divi-sion Street. As in years past,streets will be closed surround-ing downtown Maple Lake toaccommodate the multitude ofshinny hot rods, collector cars,rusty re-models still in theworks, motorcycles of all erasand intriguing odds and ends.

For those seeking a rest orsome musical entertainmentwhile browsing, “Crankshaftand the Gear Grinders,” willperform on the Main Stage from11 a.m. to 2 p.m., and “BeggarsDance,” will take over from2:30 to 5:30 p.m.

“The Whiskies” and “Heart-strings” will play at other loca-tions on site throughout the day.

Alex “Crankshaft” Larson isthe leader of his trio, “Crank-shaft and the Gear Grinders.”Inspired by gas station cassettetape collecting semi-truck driv-ers, Larson was introduced to awide variety of music as ayouth. In 1996 he traded a com-bination oil/wood stove to hisuncle for his first electric guitarand amp. He’s been performingever since.

“Beggars Dance” plays Rockn’ Blues with Sparky Andersonwho’s been called “one of thebest harp players in the uni-verse;” Jake Larson who playsthe Bass sings and can “playanything,” Leon and Steve Shif-sky on drums.

Along with the nearby localrestaurants, the Maple LakeLions will serve hamburgers,hotdogs and French Fries nearthe main stage, at the swap meetand the park. There will be otherfood and refreshment boothsscattered throughout downtownfeaturing wood fired pizza,corndogs, ice cream, walkingtacos and the Silver CreekSportsman’s Club’s famousporkchops.

The swap meet will takeplace at Bolduan Park and theparking lot of Irish Stadium.Only gear-head items are sold atthis meet and there are plenty ofthem. With more than 100 ven-dors, enthusiasts can find every-thing from car, motorcycle andsnowmobile parts to entire carsand full motorcycles for sale.There are also lots of petroleumrelated items including vintagesigns. “There will be no sun-glasses, compression socks orTupperware sold at this swapmeet, it’s all gear head items,”Chantland said. Set up starts at7 a.m. with the swap meet be-ginning at 8 a.m., rain or shine.

Gear-Head committee mem-bers meet throughout the year tolift the get-together off theground each summer. More vol-unteers are needed the big day,

but there never seems to be ashortage. Chantland empha-sized that the Gear-Head GetTogethers’ success, both pastand future, is due to the diligent

work of many capable hands.“What makes it all possible is avery dedicated group of Gear-Head volunteers and an incred-ible group of sponsors.”

Gear-Head Get Together:From hogs and hotrods toclassic cars and curiosities

The great Gear-Head Get Together offers a unique display of mechanical ingenuity with everything from rusty re-models still in the works to shinny hot rods, collector cars,

motorcycles of all eras and intriguing odds and ends. This year’s event will also feature a BMX bike show and music from “Crankshaft and the Gear Grinders” and others.

Motorcycles of all eras, makes, models and condition line the streets of Maple Lake

during last year’s Gear-Head Get Together. The display attracted crowds of eager ad-

mirers.

Last year an estimated 600 to 700 vehicles and 100-plus motorcycles were showcased

at the event that took over much of Maple Lake and featured musical entertainment on

multiple stages, a swap meet and an assortment of food.

“Get it running right before school starts”

Long-haul truckers andother commercial drivers arenot the only ones filling up atthe diesel pump these days. Infact, many private citizens areswapping their gasoline-pow-ered cars for vehicles withdiesel engines.

Although diesel engineswere once thought to be dirtyand loud, such cars and truckscan actually be efficient con-sumers of fuel. For anyonelooking to save money andhelp the environment, dieselcars and trucks can be wellworth the look.

• No spark plugs: Diesel en-gines do not have spark plugsor distributors as gas-poweredengines do. That means theywill not require ignition tune-ups.

• Longevity: Diesel enginesare prized for their ruggednessand ability to withstand highercompression. Industry expertssay many diesel vehicles can

have longer life spans thangas-powered vehicles. Plusthey can be driven farther be-fore they will require major re-pairs.

• Efficiency: According toCarophile, diesel engines canconvert more fuel into power— between 45 and 50 percent— than traditional gasoline en-gines, which boast conversionrates of roughly 30 percent.Many diesel vehicles get greatgas mileage and can deliversimilar fuel economy to somegasoline-electric hybrids.

• Cool running: Because oftheir efficiency, diesels runcool, offers automotive com-pany WyoTech. This is due torelatively low heat waste beingreleased during operation.

• More torque: The resource“For Dummies” says that, be-cause of the way diesel vehi-cles burn fuel, their enginesprovide more torque to the dri-veshaft than gasoline engines.

As a result, they may havegreater towing capacity andaccelerate more quickly froma standing start than vehicleswith gasoline engines.

• No radio frequency:Diesels do not emit radio fre-quency because they do not re-quire high-voltage ignitionsystems. This prevents issueswith a vehicle’s electronic sys-tem, including frequency inter-ference.

• Cheaper fuel: Althoughdiesel fuel costs more per gal-lon at the pump in the UnitedStates, the overall fuel cost forkilowatts runs between 30 and50 percent lower than forgasoline-powered engines,says Carophile. That can add

up to considerable savingsover time.

• Synthetic fuel acceptance:Diesel engines may run onnon-petroleum-based biofuelsmore easily than gas engines,which will need to be signifi-cantly modified to accept al-ternative fuels.

• Less CO: Diesel enginesproduce minimal carbonmonoxide, which is why dieselengines are the choice in envi-ronments where gasoline en-gine exhaust would be deadly,such as in closed-in spaces.

Motorists looking to reducetheir automotive carbon foot-prints may want to give seri-ous consideration to vehicleswith diesel engines.

Automobiles are significant in-vestments. According to Kelley BlueBook, the average transaction pricefor light vehicles was $34,968 inJanuary 2017, marking a 3 percentincrease from just a year earlier.

The decision to spend tens ofthousands of dollars on a new vehi-cle is not one consumers should takelightly. Once drivers purchase theirnew vehicles, they can protect theirinvestments and get greater returnson those investments by prioritizingmaintenance and taking simple yeteffective steps to extend the lives oftheir cars and trucks.

1. Drive defensively.Aggressive driving is dangerous

and can have adverse effects on a ve-hicle. When driving, always obeyposted speed limits and avoid accel-erating and decelerating quickly.Such a style of driving can strain ve-hicle engines and drive trains whilenegatively affecting fuel efficiencyand wearing down brakes, states theNational Institute of Automotive

Service Excellence.2. Maintain a clean vehicle.Car washes do more than just

clean a vehicle. Routine washingand waxing can remove dirt that, ifleft on a vehicle, can graduallyscratch paint and contribute to chipsand rust. Over time, rust can affectvehicle performance and may evencompromise the safety of drivers andtheir passengers if bad enough framerust affects structural integrity. Rou-tine washing also can remove roadsalt from vehicles. Salt can build upduring winter when roads are rou-tinely treated during and after snow-storms. Road salt can be extremelycorrosive and, if left unremovedfrom a vehicle, can contribute to rustthat ultimately can cause extensivedamage to a vehicle.

3. Routinely check tire pres-sure.

Many of today’s new vehiclesalert drivers when tire pressure islow. Drivers should not ignore suchwarnings, as low tire pressure can af-

fect engine performance by forcingit to work harder than should be nec-essary. Engines that are forced towork harder than they need to likelywon’t last as long as those that runefficiently. Low tire pressure alsonegatively affects fuel efficiency, po-tentially costing drivers substantialamounts of money over time. Driv-ers of older vehicles without tirepressure alerts should routinelycheck tire pressure and keep tires ad-equately inflated. Vehicles that areslow to accelerate from resting posi-tions may not have enough air intheir tires.

4. Adhere to maintenanceguidelines.

Drivers may have heard thattoday’s vehicles were built to golonger periods of time between oilchanges and tuneups than the vehi-cles of yesteryear. But drivers shouldstill adhere to manufacturer-recom-mended maintenance guidelines.Upon buying new vehicles, driversshould read their owners’ manuals to

determine recommended mainte-nance intervals, and stick to those in-tervals for as long as they have theirvehicles.

Cognizant of the sizable invest-ments they’re making when buyingnew vehicles, many drivers want toget as many miles out of their vehi-

cles as possible. Simple maintenanceand safe driving habits can go a longway toward keeping vehicles on theroad for years to come.

4 simple ways to extend the life of your vehicle

Once drivers purchase their new vehicles, they can protect their investments and

get greater returns on those investments by prioritizing maintenance and taking sim-

ple yet effective steps to extend the lives of their cars and trucks. (Photo submitted)

Love where you Live!

Drivers expect to experiencea few bumps in the road as theirvehicles age. While certain is-sues, such as worn shocks or en-gine troubles, are best left to theprofessionals, drivers can ad-dress many other issues thatcommonly affect aging vehicleson their own.

Fluid leaks are one of themore routine problems thatplague older vehicles. Whileleaks are not necessarily a signof doom and gloom, they tend todistress vehicle owners and can

affect drivability. In addition,automotive fluids that seep outof vehicles can prove harmful tothe environment.

Leaks may not be a concernfor drivers of new vehicles, butstudies show that drivers arekeeping their vehicles for longerthan ever before, suggesting thatleaks are becoming a greaterissue for more and more mo-torists. A 2016 study from theInstitute for Highway Safetyfound that the average age of ve-hicles on the road in the United

States is nearly 12 years. By2021, the IHS expects a 30 per-cent increase in vehicles that are16 years or older.

So how can drivers addressleaky vehicles before they con-tribute to potentially larger,more costly problems? Fortu-nately, leaks can be a relativelysimple fix, which should as-suage any fears drivers mayhave as the numbers on theirodometers continue to rise.

Identifying leaksIdentifying leaks is the first

step toward fixing them. Ac-cording to CRC Industries, aglobal leader in specialty main-tenance and repair chemicals, in-cluding K&W brand Stop Leakproducts, the simplest way toidentify which fluid is leaking isto determine its color. CRCnotes that red fluid suggests aleak in the power steering sys-tem or transmission, while blackfluid typically indicates old oilor transmission fluid that hasgone bad. If the leaky fluid is

green or yellow, then it’s likelyengine coolant.

Fixing leaksOnce drivers have identified

which fluid is leaking, they canthen take steps to fix the leak.Unlike other problems thatplague older vehicles, leaks cantypically be fixed quickly andaffordably.

“Stop leak products can re-ally save the day, especially ifthe leak means that you have tostop driving the vehicle,” saysCRC Technical Service Man-ager Scott Brownstein. “OurK&W Stop Leak solutions aredesigned to provide faster, lessexpensive alternatives for driv-ers who may be facing costlymechanical repairs.”

Stop leak products can be es-pecially valuable to drivers ofolder vehicles, who may notwant to pay for repairs thatcould very well exceed the valueof their cars and trucks. In addi-tion, replacement parts for oldervehicles are oftentimes not read-

ily available. In such instances,stop leak products can help driv-ers keep their cars on the roaduntil replacement parts arefound. Stop leak products alsocan be valuable in the face ofemergencies, giving drivers timeto get their vehicles to their me-chanics.

K&W Stop Leak products areavailable to address any type ofleak drivers may encounter, anddrivers need not be car savvy ormechanically inclined to use theproducts without professionalassistance. For example, K&W’sSuper TurboTM Engine OilStop Leak and Steer-XTMPower Steering Stop Leak em-ploy a “Pour & Go” formula thatcan get drivers and their vehiclesback on the road in 10 minutes.

As more and more driverslook to extend the life of theirvehicles, leaks figure to factor

more heavily in the lives of mo-torists. Addressing such leakscan be easy, quick and afford-able. Learn more about fixingleaks atwww.stopautoleaks.com/metro.
