I always put a little anti-seize on the wheel bolts and wipe most of it off. And also some on the wheel/rotor mating surfaces. All my cars except the Ford Ranger use wheel bolts instead of lug nuts.

Thanks for the info. I kind of thought that Guettl might not be a mfg, but they advertise (on the local radio station) about how they sell Guettl A/C systems and make it sound like its their own brand of A/C. Think I'll stay away. Anyway I'm always suspect about 'discounts' too.

My A/C is about 14 years old (Mfg. Bryant). I have two outside condensers. Working OK but I'm thinking about proactively replacing it this winter. A company named Guettl has been advertising here quite a bit lately with some apparently good discounts. I have never heard of this make of A/C...

Your description of a culvert is exactly correct and what any civil engineer would use. What is being called a 'culvert' here is as far as I can tell, a ditch used for run off next to a drive way. Maybe it's a regional thing, but not normal description.

At my previous house I had a stand of bamboo about 50 ft long and 3 ft deep and 10ft high boarding my neighbor. I wanted to get rid of it because it made such a mess dropping leaves on both of our properties. I cut the bamboo down to ground level but within a week it had already grown back a...

Maybe check the torque on the head bolts after running a few hours and then every season after mowing the first time.

^^^This exactly!^^^^ And one of the reasons that I have no interest in ever using them.

I have replaced A/C compressors in the past. The A/C in my Ford Ranger started blowing increasingly warmer air a couple of weeks ago. Today I replaced the high pressure line from the compressor to the condenser that had a leak, vacuumed the system and recharged with freon. Now getting 45deg...

I have the same ones from HF. Came in handy during two power outages.

I used the same Rustoleum product on a new concrete floor. Here is my result: http://www.garagejournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=284998&highlight=frank001

I've been using the Mityvac for changing brake fluid and bleeding for many years. Foreign, domestic, ABS, non-ABS - works great every time. And you don't need a helper.

Device to push brake pistons back into the calipers.

On my previous house, I replaced my main panel myself. I did it 'hot' (no permit). The old panel had some funky Bulldog breakers, a couple of which were difficult to reset, plus I needed a couple of new circuits. I made sure I had everything I needed ready before I started to keep the time...

We have dozens of them here, and hundreds of holes on our five acres. Can't really get rid of them, but I try to keep them in check with poison bait stations. They have a population explosion every so often. :willy_nil

Exactly what I was thinking. :rocker:

Any of them can be combined together, and there is no 'use by' date for motor oil.

That is cool!

I miss that too. :dunno:

I have a WORX 20v battery trimmer that I like. Been using it about 4 years. Battery lasts a good long time and has good power. I also have several other WORX garden tools that use the same battery.
