    How do you do your TURKEY?

    I have fried many turkeys the old way. Has anyone used the electric fryers you see at the Depot ? Mike

    Garage Air Compressor

    Grizzly....I am going back to the depot and Lowes and give them a real good look. What slowed me before was the 2HP verses the 3.3HP listed on my Rand. However my Rand has 90 PSI max and as I remember the depots was higher PSI with less HP. The Rands SFCM is 40 PSI=10 and 90 PSI=3.7. Guess I...

    Garage Air Compressor

    Finally wore out my Rand 3.3hp oil-less compressor after 25 years. It did OK but looking to go up a step or 2. Need to break lug nuts loose (which the Rand sometimes wouldn't), light/short sand blasting, etc. That would be the hardest I would work it. Figuring I could afford the under...

    2nd Gen Non-Engine/Transmission Here's a new one to me: Fuel sender intermittent inop

    [Are you fueling at stations with high volume pumps like the ones at truck stops? I've seen a guy literally break his float off from the high volume of fuel being pumped into the tank, I'm sure it could cause other damage as well. ] That is something I will keep in mind, never thought about...

    WAX, What do you use

    QUOTE [Maybe the 30 pack of Keystone had something to do with the length of time it took---if it was me I wouldn't be able to see the truck after a 30 pack :Jay] You may be right about the Keystone but you dont have to "see" the truck. You kind of do it by sense of "feel". :). Just kidding. ...

    WAX, What do you use

    I used a Mothers clay bar kit last year on my 12 year old paint. Was the first time I ever clay barred anything. Took 3 evenings and most of a 30 pack of Keystone light. You could really feel the difference. I'm sold on clay barring now at least every 10 or 12 years. Boy, these Wax threads...

    From My Uncle

    Colgate toothbrush Made in China. Oral-B toothbrush Made in the USA. I mentioned that to my dentist after he gave me a Colgate and he switched back to Oral-B. Did you know the toothbrush was invented by an 84 year old man in the Arkansas Ozarks? Otherwise it would be called a...

    Cordless Drills Again

    GMike, Please let us know when you get your kit and how you like it. Thanks. I like it. My 4 piece kit arrived just at the 1st of the month. So I have had 2 weeks. I will say this, it is is a very strong set of tools. The drill and sawzall feel like they are electric powered. The...

    Cordless Drills Again

    Thanks guys for all the replys. Man, they have come a long way with these cordless tools. From what I'm hearing the 18V would have done the job for me but I ordered the Milwaukee 28V, 4 piece kit the other night. I am sure I will be tickled with it, I kind of like overkill when it comes to tools...

    Cordless Drills Again

    Thanks Rick, thats exactly what I was looking for, someone that has used them all. That 3 piece kit does look nice as I dont have a sawsall. They have a 4 piece kit that includes a circular saw also. Will see what I can afford. Many folks say good things about Milwaukee. I noticed on...

    Cordless Drills Again

    Did a search here and newest info I could find was 3 years old. People were happy with Millwaukee, Panasonic and Rigid. I now have 2 Makita 14. 4V drills that are getting tired. Replaced batterys once, brushes look good. But just dont do the job. They are about 12 and 15 years old...

    Stuck Mag-Hytec Pan Plug

    You might just drive the truck untill the fluid and pan comes up to temp then give it a try. I wonder if we should be using anti-seize on these plugs. I think I will next time. Mike
