    What tool is this?

    I just happened to see this short video on FB yesterday. The video doesn’t really show what tool is being used here though. I do public works for a living, and we have multiple condensers on our villages buildings that are horribly bent over. More than you could use a simple comb on. Anyone...

    Rust dissolver that won’t harm plastic

    Picked up some old license plate jewels for dirt cheap. The nuts on the back are rusted. Been hitting them a few days in a row with liquid wrench, but still stuck. I know there are more aggressive things to use, but don’t want to wreck the plastic jewels. They are also pretty small, so I don’t...

I was just looking at lifts to put into my 30x40x12 garage, so this may work out to be a situation of great timing. It’s a Challenger E10. From searching online I see Snap-On...

    Automotive smoke machine questions

    I’m thinking about buying a smoke machine for diagnosing vacuum leaks and such on vehicles. Never having owned one I have a few questions from those of you that have used them. For example, if checking for a vacuum leak on my old carbureted cars, I assume I’d have to block exhaust, breathers...

    From SW Wisconsin. Been lurking a little, figured I’d join in.

    I’m a member over on the HAMB, so had heard about this site, but finally made it over here. I’m a car guy as a hobby, did it for a living while younger, and my 20 year old back felt like I was 70 already. So I switched gears, and was in the commercial printing industry for over 30 years. Now...
