Kind of almost impossible (or if possible, tricky) to be able to get a Q-Tip down there to wipe the seating surface with cleaner because the Accord engine has the deep recessed spark plug access situation where the plugs are down a good six or seven inches it seems from the top of the engine...

Thanks for those additional helpful comments^. Yeah I saw that question/answer too and had been wondering BS or not. I'll put a little grease in the thread chaser slots.

Also, look what I found. Things are looking brighter (cheaper) if decide I really want that doohickey. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Lisle-20020-Limited-Access-Spark-Plug-Chaser-/281493464891?hash=item418a51673b&item=281493464891&pt=Motors_Automotive_Tools&vxp=mtr Will maybe go ahead and maybe at...

Thanks. Good tips, so I can do it up proper.

Thanks, will do.

Ah. There's the ticket then. The two local parts places in my community just have that other type I linked in my first post. They could probably/maybe order me the one as described in the quote above, but hey I'll just go with Amazon probably cheaper that way anyhoo. Thanks:thumbup:

Yeah, think I'll steer toward the chaser idea instead.

The plug wells are pretty deep, I think it is like six inches down. Not sure if I had a tap how I'd attach it to whatever to keep from losing it down in there. My regular 5/8" spark plug socket (on the end of an 8" ratchet extension) seems to grip the spark plugs easily so that's another...

Okay thanks for the replies. Guess I'll give it a try with my .045 thickness disc then. Gotta get that slant just right, just like in the picture I would presume. In regard to using anti-seize, seems for various reasons there is a big differing of opinion on whether that's a good idea, but I...

I was experiencing what was seeming like some excessive resistance when trying to remove at least one of the four spark plugs from my '92 Accord. While unscrewing as it was becoming close to being out, it began getting tighter to turn. I did manage to finally slowly work it out by applying a...

Actually, the tensioner adjusting nut (which is part #26), which has a flat base on it, tightens onto the washer (#28), and secures the tensioner pulleys (for timing belt and balancer belt) on the threaded shaft through which they're installed.

Hey thanks for all the helpful suggestions/replies. I'm leaning strongly toward Rico and Chad reasoning for just breaking down and inconvenience myself by taking the time/trouble of getting the known correct part if I still can't find that dang washer in the last place I look as EOC_Jason said...

Thanks Erampu but as I mentioned there is no local Honda dealer, which is why I was hoping maybe the local hardware store might have the washer if it's otherwise a relatively common size, so I wouldn't have to order one through Honda and have to wait if I can avoid it.

While re-assembling the timing tensioner business during working on my car (Honda Accord) I've discovered I've somehow misplaced (lost) a metal washer, shown as #28 in the following diagram. The parts list describes it as "washer 10.3x25" just as I've typed. I'm fairly certain I recall this...

I called Arrow. Apparently all these different model numbers I mentioned don't matter. The attachment I have fits on the staple gun like this, so I guess you just judge the correct size staple for the job when using this type of attachment.

I have the Arrow staple gun model T-50P and also have a wire attachment model W-T-50 (shown in picture here at bottom of post). First of all, I'm not clear on how or even whether this particular wire attachment might attach to the staple gun. When I go to the Arrow website, the wire attachment...

Cool! Glad I asked here. Thanks CWP1616L! And everybody else who replied too. :bounce:

I have an older model tubing cutter, an Eastman Imperial model 312-FB "Hi-Duty". I'm needing a replacement cutting wheel for it but I notice by going to the Eastman Imperial website that this particular model has been updated/re-designed and is now called the 312-FC. I called directly to the...

Thanks for all those comments. A lot of valid sensible reasons it seems for me to get out of the habit of ignoring the electric chainsaw and just go ahead and start using it when it seems it seems perfectly appropriate to do so. It's actually nice to have the other option now that I realize...

I acquired this old electric chainsaw a long time ago and have never seemed to have a need for it. Because I already have a smallish size sized gas powered (2.8 horse power) chainsaw with an 18" bar that I can easily grab and use for most things in general in which I'm needing a chainsaw. Seems...
