    I know i should find my manual but this is faster. Do you have to pull the front cover to swap the pump? Thanks in advance and please excuse my laziness, it's been one of those weeks. Fred

    solder stick

    Make sure you are getting 60/40 rosin core and NOT 40/60...the 40/60 will not flow out for nothing. apply heat to the wire and it's a timing thing as when to add the very thinnest solder you can find. go thicker with experience and gauge of wire. you can always keep pushing a thin gauge of...

    Using a trip bucket

    All i have ever used was a trip bucket. All i have ever seen have had a dual chain/spring type stop so when you dump it starts to catch the bucket just before 90 degrees and then they hang at about 100 empty. Have tried it without springs and i don't recommend continuing to use it until you get...

    Perkins Head Torque Update

    X3 on the hot re-torque although i have successfully cheated by adding a tank type block heater and letting it run until it opens the thermostat and radiator is warm. usually 5-6 hr. fred

    Parking brake

Got to where i could open the door and toss it before backing in and hit it in proper unloading position 95% of the time. then pull away...

    OBD Code scanner recommendation so far

    Have you looked at Launch products? Does all I have needed it to and was only a short $300 if i remember correctly. Update-able via USB. Pretty durable also. Mine is the premium crp 123. There are a couple models above it. I spent hours researching before getting this one. It is NOT a Snap-ON...

    TPSM? Tire pressure monitoring sensor

    There is a service kit available to replace just the grommet and retainer nut if they are aluminum or the stem itself is replaceable if they are just rubber. The sensor/stem can run $75 plus per wheel. I wouldn't replace the sensor until failures start occurring. Fred

    Dodge truck electrical problem.

    In recent years somebody wised up and started making a single wire HEI distributor for these as they always were maintenance happy. For about $110 you can drop in a GM style distributor and toss the fine system that the dodge bros came up with. got 2 and like them a lot. Fred

    Need to get back to my waste oil burner project. It is an old house fuel oil heater. Have had limited success but can,t get the btu's out of it that I need. I have been trying to find a pump that intermittently puts out a squirt of oil about the equivalent of a golden rod oil can. We had a used...

    Wood stove kits

    Yep,tried it. Never could pull enough air thru it for a good draft. Worked for what I was doing at the time tho. Had an unlimited supply of scrap pallet wood for 2 seasons. For traditional wood I would stick with a smaller barrel. Just my ex[experience. Fred

    OT: Tire won't take air

    TPMS sensors typically have a very small orifice that isn't straight thru the valve. Also can usually replace the stem only which is much cheaper than the approx. $100 complete sensor...either as you said is a trip to the tire shop. Fred

    O.t. rack repair

    Chasing a nasty pop noise on a 09 ford flex. Thought i had it narrowed to inner tie rod but now that its exposed i can rock the linear rack shaft more than a 32nd in the tube. Doesn't seem right but havent been this deep in a rack before. Appreciate any feedback on this. Thanks in advance. Fred
