I thought of doing that but my main issue is with the selector and I don't know if wear will occur from spinning the main gear. I disassembled and polished where the selector goes over the ball bearing with not much luck. Would still prefer a longer switch, certainly room for it.

I bought the Williams JHWB-52EHA 3/8" and am a little dissapoint how stiff the direction switch is. The selector is very short but also super stiff. Is this a know thing for these or is possible I need to lube or break it in? Can I change the short selector for a longer one?

Thanks for the advice. I think I will drill the ends of the cracks then put down some more glass on the inside then bolts both pieces together using bolts.

I had a crack in my wheelbarrow and a few layers of fiberglass cloth and polyester resin on the outside of it. Doing some reading it seems like the consensus is this will fall off eventually and not bond. Can someone tell me the real way to fix the crack? What will bond to this thing? I...

I'm looking for good work lights. LED lights. I prefer bar type because I don't see the advantage of the fake Xenon types that still just have LEDs in them. One longer one for area and one smaller that is handy for closeup work. No requirements beyond that so if you know of or have a good...

Going to finally get one after borrowing friends for years and now not having any friends. I have a motorcycle I will probably do everything on and a car I will be doing various small things on so a 3/8" with 20-80Nm range will be fine. There are some Snap On QD2R100's for sale (~$160)on eBay...

Here is some pictures of the scanner. This isn't the car that has the misfire, I just want to show you the difference in 3130 and 3130c This is the 1st of 4 for individual cylinders

Sorry to confuse you but I grabbed that from a thread on another forum. It isn't the 3130c that I bought. His is just the 3130. http://www.f150forum.com/f7/equus-3130-innova-diagnostic-code-scanner-live-record-playback-data-83957/ The 3130c I got came in a few hours ago and seems to be much...

I replaced the COP and plug right off the bat because of reading they are most likely the issue. The boot looked fine, and the MIL came back on. I got the 3130c and it will get here tomorrow. No EGR or injector codes were ever with the misfire codes. I saw another thread where the older 3130...

Well I bought them all new and have never even had a MIL before so......

Yeah I have been reading threads and articles for a few hours just today and honestly a few months. My needs are so limited to strictly Fords and specifically now to what I need for a misfire diagnosis I thought someone could just point to a good one, or give me a definitive yes/no on the one I...

Are you sure on that? I don't see it anywhere in the description so if you could point me to it, that would be helpful for me to find a tool that will work for me. The 3130c is different than the old 3130. It is a 2003 Mercury with a 4.6 V8 2V. I only own Ford vehicles and 2003 is the...

Car is throwing a cyl 5 misfire. needed to get it sorted and want to get a scanner. My head is swimming on all the things I don't know about this stuff so can someone just tell me if this model http://www.amazon.com/dp/B008RHBJ8K/?tag=atomicindus08-20 Will have the Mode 6 abilities to show me...

You need to ship it by boat and not an airplane. Boat isn't very expensive but will take over a month to arrive. Airplane shipping kills you on weight, boats don't care nearly as much. Try to get someone to get a quote on that.

What about the Felo? I noticed they changed from "Made in Germany" to "Germany" but I emailed the retailed I bought them from and was told they are still made in Germany. He indicated the box they came in is marked. It always makes me pause when I see a change like that. Compare this picture...
