Why a bike chain is as critical as a timing belt for a car. Don’t let it wear out!
If you let your chain wear out it will destroy expensive components of your drive train of your bike. Using a chain checking tool regularly can help you avoid costly repairs by replacing your chain before it becomes a problem. Zero friction Cycling has a great website with information about what is the best hot wax lubricant as well as good information on what are the good chain checking tools to use. Using a wax lubricant can save you a lot of money in the long run by protecting your bike chain and helping it last longer. Also with any new chain you buy the factory grease must be removed with mineral oil solvent and denatured alcohol to help the wax work properly. Check out the Zero Friction Cycling TH-cam channel for more information and details on what lubricants work best for speed/ performance and chain longevity.

Planting Japanese Maples In Clay soil: site preparation
มุมมอง 3326 หลายเดือนก่อน
How to amend the soil prior to planting a Japanese Maple in an area with a lot of clay soil. Japanese Maples prefer acidic soil and clay is usually too alkaline. Adding peat moss and compost or a fine mulch like soil pep can help amend the soil. Also something like perlite can help with drainage. Plant in a location that has filtered sunlight or partial shade. I have seen Japanese Maples grow w...
Easy 5 minute fix for a Loose Door Handle on a Hyundai
มุมมอง 1.3K8 หลายเดือนก่อน
I had a loose door handle on my 2008 Hyundai Sonata and I was worried it was going to break if it had not already. It was making the door more difficult to open and also more difficult to close so I watched a few videos on how to fix a broken handle but I didn’t realize that all I had to do was tighten the bolt to fix the door handle. It was free and easy to do! Simply remove the black plastic ...
Wide snow shovel for efficient snow removal: The Original Snow Plow Snow Shovel
มุมมอง 8578 หลายเดือนก่อน
The Original Snow Plow is my favorite snow shovel! I have been using it for the past several months. It seems very durable. I think it will last longer than any of my previous snow shovels. I love how efficiently I can clear my driveway because of the wide blade on the bigger 48 inch wide model. It is a great tool to have for smaller snow storms that are frequent where I live. For deep or heavy...

How to change the circulation pump on dishwasher that is not cleaning properly
He may have been incorrect about them being sensors, but regardless, cleaning it works. It won't work if the problem is internal, obviously, but that doesn't mean it never works. I was fighting with the thing for a good 30 minutes. "You slammed it shut hard enough for it to recognize it was closed." Tried that multiple times. Didn't work. "It was a coincidence because you left the door open for long enough." Again, tried that. Leaving the door open for a bit then closing it again, trying to lift the door a bit as I close it, as a whole it was left alone for a good half hour, but only after cleaning it did it start working. And it didn't even look dirty. Whether or not it's the cleaning itself or the action of putting pressure on it, or something else entirely that makes it work, it totally works. Being wrong about the reason it works doesn't mean it's total misinformation and people are gullible.
I have a 2007 Hyundai Azera its doing the same thing. It starts on its on in the on position. So I'm going to unplug the battery so it wont start while I'm working on it.
I where do you convey the c wire adapter ?
Do they need to be broken in and did they last?
Thanks for review! I just bought them recently couple months ago 225/65/16 for my FWD Hyundai Tucson, curious if they will be fine to drive in the harsh Canadian icy roads in winter with minus 30 celcium...a little worried if I need to purchase real winter tires or keep these ones
Did that really fix the problem permanently?
Got this exact problem, although the handle is loose to the point where the door isn't functional, have to open it from the inside. didn't know you can access the bolt from there and it's just a simple fix!Going to try this
Love the wall! Great video great 💡 ideas! Thanks for sharing ❤
I've been watching this video over and over to identify each switch by its FC number and the other number and also looking at the molded letters whether its NC or NO on the side of switch.so far theres FC-62 B6601B bottom door switch. FC-61 B6525B 3 wire on top and another FC-62 -31D28B two wires on top Also trying to get pictures of the color of the wire positions on the switchs.
Very helpful, any suggestions on the chain Link thickness as well…

Hola bonita noche y en español x favor bendiciones
My Whirlpool microwave looks similar, its like 4yrs old and it is definitely confused about the door status. Sometimes we take out the food and the microwave keeps giving the reminder beep as if it doesn't know I've already opened and closed the door. I'm going to use your method to change the switches. Great video!
Glad I found this video. Ordered ignition switch on Amazon, paid $20, it took me 10 minutes.., and its like never happened!!! Thanks a lot!👻🤝
Mine is clogged with rust specks
DId you know that there is a much better design possible for transfer shovels? If you're interested, I'll show you a shovel which requires no back bending, and can be used with only one hand.
6:05 Sorry to point it out. I don't think the CV boot was the only thing that ripped. 😂 All joking aside, good video. I'm trying to get my passenger side CV axle out, and I am stuck on getting the inner side that connects into the tranny loose. I'm trying to do what I can to not damage the casing and oil seal.
Mine is happening now on 2016 sonata… getting more frequent… some day just can’t push in brake pedal to start it but it does make that grinding noise and I thought same thing was it transmission
Awesome thanks for the heads up.😅😊😅😊😅😊
I would kiss you if I could omg thank you
Great video. Saved me from a pricey service call or replacing my unit.
My problem was ice buildup behind the panel and a block of ice stopping the fan from running, and I have the kit (available online, which also includes that little probe that you clipped on) to add a secondary heater to prevent freezing. Letting it thaw overnight to see if there is an ice blockage in the drain. Thank you for the video.
14mm long socket
Thank you!!!!
I f'd up the screws. 4 are longer and have some sort of bevel at the end. 2 are long no bevel and 2 are short. I know the short go on the outside...screwed up the other screws.
Thank you, Thank you, Thank you! You saved me hundreds of dollars and the aggravation of having to remove and replace my microwave. I have the exact same microwave and have had the same issue. The first time it happened a few weeks ago I unplugged it overnight and the next day it worked, so I figured it was a glitch in the electronics. This morning it happened again, but this time unplugging it had no effect whatsoever. My wife had me going out today to buy a new microwave, but before I did that I decided to check for a TH-cam video to see if anyone had a simple fix for the problem. This was the first video that popped up. I used some degreaser spray on a paper towel, cleaned everything up, then wiped it all down with some rubbing alcohol on a paper towel. VOILA! Problem solved. Couple of things though....those aren't contacts at the bottom, they're clips to hold the stainless trim on the bottom of the door. I believe it is the bottom of the door that needs to make contact with the bottom of the microwave, so cleaning the entire bottom of the door and the bottom part of the microwave where the door makes contact is essential. Not criticizing your video....if it wasn't for your video I'd be out shopping another microwave. Thank you again sir!
Brother, this video deserves so much more attention. I was scared for my transmission on my sonata 09
Thank you so much for posting this. I have the same exact microwave over my stove and was going crazy trying to figure this out😮
Thank you!!!! I have a Whirlpool but it looks like it works exactly the same way so this will be my project tomorrow morning!
I am not going to absolutely dispute that the tabs at the bottom of the door are not contacts. But I just cleaned mine, and in the process, with the door already open, the inside light turned on, which suggested to me that the unit sensed that the door was now open. In other words, even with the door open before cleaning, the light was not on, mistakenly sensing that the door was closed. Once the light went on, I closed the door and tried the microwave, and the microwave worked.
You can use 2 jam nuts if you have that size
Thank you so much for detailed information. Trailer and renting helps for me.
You saved my life
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU,YOU SAVED ME ABOUT $130. AND THIS COST ME NOTHING, I FOUND THE SHELF BRACKET IN ONE OF MY JUNK DRAWERS AND IT WORK PERFECT AND DID NOY HAVE TO FILE IT DOWN, BUT I DID FILE THE TOP OF THE FRIDGE LIKE YOU SAID.THANKS AGAIN. BOB.
Brilliant idea
Thank you for this tip. Cleaning it with some mild detergent did the trick and our Whirlpool Microwave is working again 🙌
You actually don't necessarily want to have both anchors at the same height. Unless the centerline is located equidistant to each stud,you typically want to make a delta calculation for your anchor screw locations. So if one atud is say 5 inches from center but the other stud is 11 inches away, you would do best to having one anchor lower than the other ao that they are having the same amount of gravitational force being applied to them. Something for others to keep in mind should they have studs that aren't the same distance from the center point of where you want your hanged object to be.
you have to be very carful using this option, I broke it and now I need to buy a new one.
Oh, this was cool. And i noticed that you made this 7 years ago. So your son should be like 14 now!
If you store a lot of uncovered or covered food in the freezer, in time this will cause moisture and freezing of the drip tray. I spent 5 hours solving this by removing the inner wall and defrosting it with a paint stripper. Water dispenser hose was also frozen. Next time I'll do it differently. If I go on holiday for a week or more, the freezer and refrigerator are empty, the power is turned off, the doors open and the fridge/freezer combination defrosts itself in a few days. At most a puddle of water at the back underneath, which evaporates automatically. When you get home, turn on the power and fill the refrigerator again. The two rubber hoses should be cleaned like in this video and dust should be removed once in a while.
Thank you for making this video mine got worse and worse to where it did it all the time but like you said it's just a matter of cleaning it and it ends up starting working again thank you so much
Thank you for making this super helpful video! I have had this same problem with my 2007 Hyundai Elantra for the last two months. The grinding noise in Park or Neutral happened only occasionally at first, then more and more often. I took the car to my mechanic and the noise didn’t happen for him, so he couldn’t diagnose it. Sometimes the engine starts when the key is in the “On” position, so I’m thinking to disconnect the battery terminal before I attempt this replacement for that reason.
Thank you! I didn't have that piece of hardware so I used a screw eye from a picture hanging kit! Thanks for the inspiration! Lol! Now I'm making a sign to not slam.the door!
My dad and I did it almost the exact same way. Others sag removed the lower control arm but we didn't have the tools to do that so we did what you did instead. It was a learning experience but we got it done. The only hard part was removing the axle nut. It was extremely tight. I got a 2ft breaker bar and torched the nut for a few minutes and that finally worked. The old axle pulled out and the new one slid right into place and now it's driving back to normal.
Thank you. I have a whirlpool and when the door closes where the 2 pieces behind the handle go in when the door closes the top one broke and now the door is not tight. Can I buy replacements? looked like they are plastic and probably fatigued from repeated opening and closing the door over the years.
Cure? I didn't know it was sick!
From looking briefly at this video at some parts, all I can say is I hope you have good fire insurance.
My man! Watched like 7 videos trying to figure out why I couldn't cut nothing lol. Bought new chains and everything, and still no luck. Stumbled across your video and now I'm tearing through trees like tissue paper. Simple, but needed and every other video I watched overlooked this. Thanks!! 👍🙏
Thank you for this. Solved the issue for me.
