That's funny. I have the same compressor in the same bag. Still need some plugs though. Kick *** little compressor though. Haven't pushed it hard but been impressed.

I'm glad to hear that! After reading through the reviews on Amazon, it was a no-brainer going with it instead of an Auto-Zone variant.

So I'm driving to work this morning when I see something with red handles on the side of the road........

Have you had good luck with that H2S sensor? We had a Draeger 02 sensor at about midway through last year and it lost its mind three months into service, being rarely used.

Isnt that Nepros very hard to get? Where did you get it?

Nepros.net

Depending on your bank, you may have to order with a credit card instead of a debit card, or give your bank's fraud department a heads up first. Chase denied debit card transaction at first because of it being an international site.

is that circle in the middle of the ratchet head a button to activate a quick-release mechanism? it looks flush with the surface of the head.. is it easy to use? or is it not that at all and just looks like a button?

The circle is in fact a quick-release mechanism and it is flush with the surrounding surfaces, however it is a large enough area that it is easily operated with your thumb.

Yea I got mine off Amazon as well, probably why we ended up with the same bags as I think those were in reviews as well. I've done a few tires from flat to inflated. Nothing huge. Top my tires off when needed. Took it on the boat to air up rafts. Pretty handy and the duty cycle is nice. I keep it in my Mini since I ditched the runflats and don't have spare. However still rolling the dice with out any plugs

Yup, had my doubts at first, but used the **** out of the little thing today. Actually quite handy. water pump on a civic, among several other jobs :beer:


That's the R18 (06+?) Civic, right? Are they as easy as the older civics?

This was an 06, it should have been very easy, like a 15-20 minute job. The belt tensioner has to come off, however, the flange that the water pump pulley was bolted to separated from the shaft of the wp and cut a nice groove that took out half of the bolt head for the tensioner and fused the remaining part of the bolt to the tensioner. Getting it out was, interesting...

Got these Beauties in today. I love them. The cast ones that came with the press were already broke. I bought the press used though. Pretty good investment.

I haven't been able to use it yet, but when turning it by hand, my initial impression is that it feels significantly smoother then my Snap-on Dual-80s and Craftsman Premium ratchets. I will definitely be adding more Nepros items to my collection.

How does the GW 120XP compare to the Dual-80? I'm looking for an excuse to add them to my collection also lol!

Despite carrying plugs, sealant and a compressor, I just can't bring myself to ditch the spare wheel. But having it tucked away in a factory out-of-the-way location is considerably different then adding a spare to a car that wasn't designed to carry one.

My cousin has a '10 Mini Cooper S, they really are a pretty damn good car.
