I have an older Onkyo receiver in my unconditioned garage. It gets used almost daily. It has survived mid Atlantic humidity and temperature extremes for at least 5 years.

Can you fix both and sell the one you don't use? Posted this 👆as I was typing. Still seems like a bunch of work for minimal return. Do you have the equipment to move them and set them up? How much is your time worth? How soon do you want to have a car up in the air?

Whatever you use to replace the bottom seal, be sure to paint the bottom of the door before you install a new seal.

I scored this deal a couple weeks ago. Good looking products. The scanner has lots of cool stuff that I'm gonna have to figure out how to use. The circuit tester is similar to a Power Probe except this unit has the lower voltages output that my Power Probe lacks. Seems like a useful upgrade. The...

Ok fine. I'm in.

Not really sure... It's like a never ending game of Tetris. Same with the rest of the garage.

Yes! Already have a spot picked out.

I wonder what happened to the OP...

I have the primeweld 60. It hasn't given me any trouble or any reason to think it will. I am an occasional user. Maybe once or twice a week. As said above, practice helps. Whatever you buy, playing with torch angle, speed, current settings and air pressure and post flow time will definitely...

What does the manufacturer of the paint you're going to use recommend? Better prep usually results in a better/longer lasting paint job, but I'm not sure where overkill starts. Is there an area you can try a sample on?
