Oh yeah, this was awesome. I really enjoyed the tank though. And The Retired Speed Shop Owner episode was one of my favorite because he was buying a lot of his tools back in the mid 80's when I started buying Snappy. I have so much of the same stuff, and I understood almost everything he was...

For wrenchin in the shop on greasy things, these are my favorite. At work, not much grease, I like Klein black rubber handles

No way! Since the 80's I've been using electrical tape. Thanks man!

But they don't make them in 1/2"

Great episode! I suggest watching the guy with the tank episode.

Maybe call Grainger??? They should most likely still have parts options, but maybe they might have someone that might be able to diagnose it. It's a possible start. Good luck.

The name is not what I thought, but man, that looks exactly like the can I remember. This has to be it. Thank you. I believe they had another blue can for silver I believe???

This looks kinda like it, but I seem to remember an orange can and maybe a blue can. The orange I thought was all orange. But this might be it. It's been many decades. LOL

Oh I get it. I was a customer of Discount Tire. And I got sick of sitting there for at least 2 hours every time I needed tire service. That's why I looked into doing my own. I was so close, but I needed a set on my one son's truck, and this place changed my mind. Good luck!

I remember a tarnish remover that was a saturated cotton in an orange can. You would pull some off the roll, and it worked very well. The can was about 2 1/2 - 3 inches in diameter and about 4 inches high. I think they had another type in a blue can. I just can't remember the name. Thanks

Yep. I was ready to pull the trigger on a Katool set. Then, I found a local tire shop that offers great prices and outstanding service. And now my kid works there after school, so I completely scratched the idea of doing my own tires.

Another Sil-Glyde user here on the pins. I also have a bottle of this purple stuff that I use on the back of the pads and where the pad slides.

The youtube channel HowIDidIt mentioned this about the Doosan engines in a video. He ordered a new engine and mentioned something about why he would not rebuild one. He was a mechanic for a Bobcat dealer, and had issues because of his awesome youtube channel and went out on his own. Watch his...

I couldn't have described it better myself. And yes, although I press both buttons simultaneously, I end up holding them for at least two seconds after they hit bottom. You will totally get a half flush if you don't. Don't ya just love regulations?LOL

I have been using pneumatic impact wrenches for over four decades. Of all the ones I own, have owned, and used, I have not found this to be true at all. At least not noticeable without a measurement device, something like torque test channel.

I just acquired both the Snap-on MG325 & MG725 impact wrenches, used. With the dial on full blast, in reverse sounds like there is a lot more power than in forward. It is the same for both guns. Is this normal? I have owned the previous versions from Snappy, the IM31A, IM51A, IM5100, and they...

My home has the two half circle buttons on top of the tank lid. I now just press and hold both buttons for every flush. I was told one was for 1 and the other was for 2. I have tried one vs the other and cannot visually notice a difference between the two.

I kinda agree with this. I have a 20 gallon, under hoist oil drain that you pressurize to empty. I currently have to empty it into four containers to take it to the disposal station. It really is a PITA. I am trying to find someone with a used oil furnace that will give me a drum or IBC tote...

I still have a 2004 Bobcat S300 with a Kubota engine, I bought new. I was a huge Bobcat fan when I was in business. Now, that Bobcat got bought out by Doosan, I won't even look at them. The engines are basically throw away/exchange. There is a guy on youtube "HowIDidIt" that was a Bobcat dealer...

I have a Lincoln 3 ton floor jack I bought new in the late 90's. I picked up a new HF 4 ton last year. I have a new 4 post lift, and I use bottle jacks to lift the vehicle to remove wheels. Well, my kid has an after school job at a tire shop, and says for rotation, it's easier to use 3 floor...
