I found myself needing an 11mm flare nut wrench today, so I ran to Sears to grab one so I could finish up my project today. Well, I get to Sears, and start looking at their selection, and low and behold, not one flare nut wrench was made in the USA. To top that off, they were wanting $20 a...

Did you buy the equipment? If not, there are companies that specialize in cleaning and flow testing injectors. I can't tell where you are, but if you are in the US, I can get you the info for a company local to me that does this service.

Here is an example. The stuff is pricey, but you can buy it by the foot. We have it available at a local hydraulic supply store.

You would be better off putting an extra $100 or $200 with that money and buying a 220v unit. You can outgrow a 110v in a hurry.

They make silicone tubing. We have used it on turbo installs when using v-bands and aluminum tubing was not convenient. The silicone is very soft and easy to manipulate. They also make different bends, reducers, etc.

If you are just needing a slight bend, you could use a section of silicon hose between the tb and the plastic hose.

Re: What did you do to your garage today? Added a small section of shelves in mine. Making room for the race car to return home.

I got a 3.5 ton Arcan for my 08 F250. It will lift the front end from the center with no problem. It is also low profile and will fit under cars.

I signed up for the Craftsman Club too, and it always says "next savings in *** days". I did get a deal on some pry bars in store though.

Thanks for the comments guys. The funny thing was that of all the other places for the leak to spring, it sprung right above his box. Nothing else in the shop was wet.

My buddy has been kind enough to let me keep my car at his shop while I was doing some major changes on my car. I got to the shop today to find that the roof had sprung a leak..... right over his big tool box. Needless to say, I spent the next couple of hours cleaning up, drying and oiling his...

PM sent on Snap-On ratchet.

The bolts that I have messed with on my 08 F250 are metric too.

Glad it could help. Also, on 1steve's find, I notice it says made in the USA, so it can be kept in the good ole USA.

I have not had this problem, but have you thought about using one of the dehumidifying rods that are made for use in a gun safe? They are designed to be on all the time, so it would probably be worry free.

The boxes I see on CL around here are normally folks that are trying to get payoff for the box after only paying a year on it from the truck, or they are overpriced lower end boxes. I try to keep in mind that people shopping on CL are usually looking for a real bargain, or they are someone that...

If you are going to weld aluminum, go ahead and get the TIG. There are people that will say just get the spool gun and MIG it, but you will be much happier using the TIG. If I were buying a product that was fabricated using aluminum, I would want it to be TIG welded.

Re: what did you do in your garage today? Straightened up my scrap metal pile, swept, vaccumed, and started the layout for my new welding/fab table. About time to bring the race car back in for some upgrades and a new engine.

That would be plenty for doing headers.

Heck, I had a seller agree with a price on something, and he never sent the payment info so I could buy it.
