Thanks to everyone who took the time to reply

I can say having used neither the welding method or an extractor that I feel more comfortable trying the welding method. After getting feedback from here and watching video’s I’ve seen that it’s the heat from the welding that really helps them come out. I’ve seen numerous posts stating that...

I’ve never done one but just from doing some research the easy outs scare me to.

It sounds to me like there is less of chance of damaging the head with welding than using an extraction tool, I’ve seen many posts of extraction tools breaking off but I haven’t seen a post yet that said they damaged it using the weld technique. Now I only have flux core, Mig Pak 140, set up for...

Thank you

Thank you, I have the heads out so much easier, although I’m pretty sketched out, worrying about damaging the head. It’s never been molested so it would be the original stud. I’m mainly worried about the puddle melting the threads of the aluminum, not sure if it would or not but that my main...

For a little background, when I was taking the exhaust manifold off the right bank head of a 2016 Ram, 3 bolts broke, 2 were above deck height and this one is about 1/8” below deck height, so not deep at all. I’ve watched a few you tube video’s and originally was going to buy a good punch, some...

Thanks @Wrench97 , any advice on how to check them? Is it just a visual or should I use a pry bar and try to wiggle them. I never payed any attention to them, maybe it will be self explanatory once I do?

Been working on my 2016 Ram for longer than I would like. Was throwing multiple cylinder misfire code, ended up being the exhaust spring but I decided to take the heads off so I could inspect the cam lobes and change the lifters as a preventative maintenance. Wish I would have just changed the...

Yesterday I hooked the old Nintendo Wii up in the basement. We live in a stone home that’s been in the family since it was built in 1840, left to me by my grandfather who cared more about the cows then the house, bless his soul. Anyways, the stairs going to the basement are pretty steep. I had...

My 2016 Ram started running horribly a few weeks back, throwing codes P0303, P0307 and P0208 and P2172, after cleaning the coils to no avail I took the valves cover off the left bank and found this space shown in picture between pushrod and rocker arm, today I got the intake manifold off

Picked up this Snap On harmonic balancer puller tonight. Fellow I purchased it from is getting out of engine building, I didn’t ask any questions pertaining to it, but it looked like his health was failing. He seemed to like to talk, he invited me to come have a look at the rest of his tools...

Daisy and I went for an ATV ride today, well I rode the ATV and Daisy ran around with her nose to the ground, came across this print that was about 4 inches and then seen a muskrat, little ****** was vicious, at one point he was attached to the bottom of my ATV. Glad Daisy didn’t notice him.

That flare you made looks like the SAE bubble flare that the first tool I purchased from RA made, The Capri makes the DIN flare that I needed for the 2009 Hyundai. I don’t know enough to say for sure but I believe a lot of today’s vehicles use the DIN flare for brake lines...

I really appreciated this tool after the junk flaring tool i had ordered.

What kind of motorcycle is that in your Avatar? I recently picked up a 1978 Kawasaki KZ400

For sure, let me know what you think. As you probably seen I thought it was a quality made tool. It was recommended to me in this thread. It’s been awhile, since this thread but if memory serves me correctly this tool does the DIN flare and SAE double flare. The 09 Hyundai used a DIN flare that...

I don’t get anything in my hair this way
