when in doubt it is Ok to punt. Last time I needed springs I called my door guy and he took care of it for me.

we used to throw a couple 2x12's pieces in front of the ramp to get the cars up on it. We had to take the spoiler off because it was only an inch+ or so off the ground.

Kudos for trying.

I just ordered some elmer's wood filler thru overnight Amazon. Back hurts too much this afternoon to drive over to the orange or blue store to see what they have. Thought about the bondo but I have a mental block. Used it a lot in the garage working on a race car years ago, and that led to a...

thanks. I suspected that. Checked the old wood filler just now and it is like a rock. Time to order something. Will look up 3M 907 scratch filler.

you have to add a coffee pot above them for sure....

Have some door trim in a pocket door that has been on an off so many times to replace the rollers that it has chips in it, especially the inner corners. Thought I would just fill the nail holes with spackle as usual and sand, however if I spackle in the small chips and sections where the wood is...

I've done the same. More worried about the piston slap, the rod bearings, crank wear, cam wear and the shot valve guides. I've looked to see if anyone is scrapping a good similar washer with a bad pump to use the engine off it but nothing that old comes up anymore.

I should have figured you'd have trouble understanding something that complex. My apologies for not realizing your thought processes were impaired by your age. Sorry.

The one I have works fine but it has so many hours on the engine I am concerned it may not last another 1000 hours. I am guessing that is about what is on it. Simple Briggs L engine, 1998 or so Craftsman by Generac. Pump replaced twice already. Carb once, cleaned a couple times. Did the valves...

the issue with a long run is the resistance the air will have. That will lower the flow and possibly burn out elements sooner. With proper flow and good filtration, an element lasts a very long time. With poor flow they commonly burn out. I would not go up. The only ones in my life that I helped...

what brand?

the valves I have sport an on-off solenoid, an on-off knob, and a valve adjustment on the top that can open up or shut down the flow. I also have a ball valve to each sprinkler bank so I can switch it off without turning the house off. Make sure all the valves in line are all the way open. If...

thank you. At $1200 I would probably buy thru the local small engine / mower shop. They have experience servicing them at that price range.

I am in low 70's. None of my nieces, their husbands, or my nephews have any interest in the things my generation, or my fathers' generation collected. That age group made up most of the buyers in prior times. Add to it people find recreation in different ways today. I'd look in CL and FB, at...

I don't know. One review said his broke into two pieces at the casting mold lines after a few hours of use. He complained that the quality of the pump was poor. He called Dewalt to have it fixed, they referred him to FNA and they said it was a DeWalt problem. Doesn't sound like a top of the...

I would sleep on the idea of what you are going to do next. As to overspray, acetone works well with cotton but it will dissolve plastics and things it is on. It will also leave a sticky residue unless you wipe it several times. The reason I say sleep on it, you may want to leave it thick, or...

I saw that one. Sort of liked it. Only place I could find it for sale is the orange big box store. Thought I would ask the local shop if they do warranty work on them. Downside is they are supposedly made by FNA which includes Simpson. Some posts elsewhere indicate warranty repairs are a...

use something that stops the UV light getting to the lens. It causes the surface to face. Spar Varnish is what comes in the kits. Use a UV blocking clear coat. Park in a garage during the day and keep moisture off it at night. It really is that simple. We know a grant manager who manages...
