Can't argue with you on this...

I have a couple of mules out of that steel from when they released it. Hard ****!!

Benchmade auto....can't recall the model name?? My everyday for years now.

No opinion on the Vevor. If HF had a Pittsburg set that was fairly complete, I'd probably be suggesting that, but instead I'm going to recommend this Quinn set, because I have a number of individual Quinn hand tools and I'm impressed with their quality/value. You'd need to pick the right size...

Spoke with Dianna on the phone for a good bit. My heart goes out to them, because I know what she's going/is going to go through to get this behind her. But I'm going to post a few pics of my fire, and the rebuild, to give her some positive vibes/examples of how a place can "rise from the...

Me as well. Are you guys saying that they don't sell these anymore? I've had mine for a couple of decades so I guess I've never needed to look for a new one. But that plastic ********? Throw it in the trash, lol

While there are probably people here that would like to hear my response and advice, I don't really have time to type it all out right now. But what I do want to do is tell Diana, the op, that she should call me. If you have a few minutes, I can give you some very important advice regarding the...

Man, I defer to your expertise on accurate measurements! But....I hold to my original point that he hasn't yet confirmed that the unit IS running right, and has to do that before chasing potential duct issues. That would be the proper diagnostic order, no??

You could get the most accurate return/-intake temps taking the filter out and measuring it right there. Also measure at the closest register rather than the furthest. You're trying to assess the AC unit itself and you don't want the confounding factors of all the potential ductwork problems...

ok....refrigerant.....guilty as charged.

All this back and forth about ductwork....and you haven't even assessed your AC unit? Or have you done that, and just don't want to post about it? I'll try one more time. What is your delta on air temps???

I presume you've put in a new filter and cleaned the coils?? If not, do that before proceeding. Then grab a pyrometer and see what your delta is on intake and discharge vents in the house. Should be 15-20 degrees. Less than 15 suggests duct leak, or inadequate coolant levels in your...

in the vids of them using the tool, it looked like some fluid was on the "bit"....oil? H2O??

Interesting....a quick look at Amazon reveals you can pay $80-120 for the "brand" Spin tool.....or $20 for a knockoff. Which, most likely were both/all made in the same place. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B093CHLZ85?tag=atomicindus08-20 https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0G8L7757K?tag=atomicindus08-20
