I've used quite a few different brands. And in my opinion, this is the best one: https://redlinedetection.com/collections/evap/products/smoke-pro-air-complete Don't need to hook up air to it if you don't have it available but you can if you do.

I just picked up a 500i with a 28" bar to chop up some huge trees that came down on my property over the winter. I can tell you that it is an absolute BEAST! As a matter of fact, that's what I am doing today and it is making these trees its *****. I've owned other Stihls and this thing is...

Hi Bob, I don't really know how they compare to the Weavers. Other than my current Ranger machines, i've only used Hunter, Coats and Snap-On machines over the years. The best advice I can give you is spend as much as you can afford. Using bad tire machines is really frustrating unless you enjoy...

Hi Bowtie_Bob, The tire machine model is: R980AT The Balancer model is: LS43B They've both been great. You won't be disappointed if you get them. Mike

A liitle personal experience with Ranger. I had an older Ranger tire changer/balancer set and just wasn't happy with them at all. I posted in another thread my dissatisfaction with them and a Ranger rep, (on this board), contacted me to get my input. He stated that they had made significant...

*****update***** *********UDATE******** Originally, I had older Ranger 980xr/64t tire machines and was unhappy with the quality of the machines. After posting my thoughts in this thread, JSK, from Ranger/BendPak, contacted me right away. He stated that they have been working hard to update...

I have the worm drive flexvolt circular saw and love it. I have done A LOT of work with it on my barn and I still cant believe how much power it has.

Snapped-off, My Elite is about a year old. And as a comparison, I booted up my ADS625 and my Autel Elite at the same time. The Autel booted up about 10 seconds faster than the Bosch and they both are about the same as far as speed of screen changes and data acquisition. Like I said above, both...

I have a Bosch Ads625 and its a great scan tool. It just doesnt have as complete coverage as my Autel Maxisys Elite. As for being slow, maybe some of Autels lower end tools are slow, but ive never used them so I dont know. I can tell you that my Autel Elite is fast and Ive never had a hardware...

I have many OEM and aftermarket scan tools, and if I could only have one, it would be my Autel Maxisys Elite. Its by far the most all around functional scan tool I have. Autel is coming out with a slightly better scan tool but I havent used it. I think the software coverage is the same as the Elite.

I also use a Bacharach H10 Pro, among others. The H10 Pro is about the best there is and will find leaks that most other detectors wont. And it works with1234.

None of the above. When i do fuel pumps like this I will remove the old connector, cut off the old terminals from the existing wiring harness, put new terminals that fit the new connector on the existing wiring harness, remove the pigtail wires from the new connector and insert the existing...

Hi JSK, I didn't realize that there was a Bendpak/Ranger rep on the forum. I appreciate your response. That is encouraging. I will PM you. Mike

I have the Ranger 980xr tire machine and the Ranger 64t balancer. The tire machine is okay but the balancer is junk. I shouldve just returned them and gotten something better but at the time I was really busy and didnt want the hassle. Remember, most, if not all, Bendpak stuff is made in...

If you have space and flammability concerns, use a Mini Ductor. I use the wrap around cord a lot for tight spots. Heats up stuff great with no flame.
