Thanks. Have a great day. Thanks for watching.

I'm glad it worked for you. Thanks for watching.

Yeah, I like using that bathroom scale inparticular because I'm always about 20 lbs. lighter on that one than the one at the Dr's office, (hahaha just kidding). I'll give it to you that the wrench should be checked at numerous spots along its range. As you said, start off at the 20% mark and go up from there. I like to make sure that this wrench is accurate at the 80-90 ft lbs area for all the wheels that this thing tightens on. This one gets used for multiple cars per day, x 20 wheel nuts on each vehicle, x going up in two stages of torqueing per wheel nut, and then sometimes click them all again to make sure I didn't miss one, x 10 weeks in the Spring, and 10 weeks in the Fall. This wrench literally has thousands and thousands of clicks on it. I just like to check out that mid-range in the Spring and in the Fall to make sure its still close. I have a few other wrenches that get used for somewhat more precise engine building and such. Good points you made there, I appreciate your input. Thanks for watching.

@@wrenchgearsadventures Have you experimented at all with a digital torque adapter? They're budget now and quite accurate - could simplify multiple checking without juggling weights (I recognize the point of this video was using just what was to hand), but batteries can be a bugbear.

@@PlatypusPerspective No I haven't played around with the digital torque adapters at all. Might be something I could look into if they were reasonably enough priced. I only do this procedure usually once in the Spring and once in the Fall. Gives me piece of mind that I'm still in the ballpark. Thanks for the suggestion.

@@wrenchgearsadventures The EPAuto unit I have cost AUD 60 online, about $44 US.

Feed it to them, they love it. Thanks for watching.

Yeah, I know, I know. I had something else going on in my head at the time of doing this video, so I was stammering a little bit. Thanks for watching.

​@@wrenchgearsadventures I apologize. Your video is out there helping the people who are looking for this. I should not have made that comment.

@@stevesouthwick3426 No problem at all. I tend to ramble on in some of my videos, and get side tracked and such. Thanks for watching, have a great day.

Thats great, good to see someone else using the same method. Thanks for watching

It's truly not that difficult. Give it a shot, it'll be fine. Thanks for watching.

I'm pretty well set up for batteries. I won't be needing any at this time, but thanks for asking. Thanks for watching.

@@wrenchgearsadventures It's OK. If you are interested in the future, pls contact me.😀

I'm glad you were able to get something out of this video. Please check out some of my other 'boat' videos. Thanks for watching.

@wrenchgearsadventures of course, I will check them out. I like simple how to videos. They help during times of need.

Could very well be something similar. Junk or sludge sitting in the bottom of the float bowl might have gotten sucked up into a jet or orifice. Once again, these carbs are pretty easy to work on. Whip it apart, clean it all out, get it back on and see how it goes. Thanks for watching.

I'm sorry that you found it so difficult to follow and understand. Thanks for watching.

You're welcome, thanks for watching

Yeah. As far as I know, all air tanks have a date of manufacture metal plate tack welded onto them somewhere. I won't take it if its like 15 years old or something like that. The newer the better. I'll definitely look down inside of it and check it's condition. Thanks

That would be too easy lol Wrenchgear likes a challenge 💪

When tire swap season comes around, I do 3-6 vehicles per day for 8-10 weeks straight. Another guy in the area doing the same thing uses and inflator and comments on the time he spends topping up tires before he leaves and goes to the next job. With the tanks ready to go, I unwind the hose out of the back of the truck and spend 10 seconds per tire topping them up. The system that I have going seems to work good for me for the last number of years now. Thanks for watching.

Should be like that for a lot of things!

If they don't fit in there any other way, they get used backwards. Thanks for watching.

Yeah, I explored using a small compressor and running it off an invertor, but the cost of it all was going to be too much. When I use the tanks, I have enough capacity to top up about 4 - 5 cars worth of tire swaps when I had the 3 x 30 pack going. Problem is if I get to a car that has a flat tire, it uses so much air that it puts a cramp in the rest of the day. With the bigger air tank, I think things should be fine. Then when I get home, I just fill the tanks from my shop air compressor, and I'm good to go the next day. Thanks for watching and commenting.

I googled it because I'm not sure what it is either. .... A dip tube (also known as an outage tube) provides vapor space above liquefied gases in a sampling cylinder so that if expansion occurs with an increase in temperature, the pressure is not significantly increased. Basically, the length of the dip tube is used to determine the filling capacity of the cylinder. .... So that's what I got from it. Thanks for watching and commenting

It is a "safety " device that effectively decreases the contents of a full fill, thus increasing the price per pound. Also tanks without them were not filled, insuring the sale of replacement tanks. Lobbied in by the tank companies. Any surprise?

Honestly, I'm not a 100% sure. I think that your guess at it being a heat shield of sorts to protect the plastic outer cover is probably a good one. I'm not sure how crucial it would be though. They probably have the holes in it so the motor doesn't overheat. If yours it totally wrecked, you could try going without it and monitor the heat on the outside just by feeling it every now and then. If yours is just torn a little, leave it in there. Thanks for watching, please consider subscribing. Thanks.

@@wrenchgearsadventures Thank you for the response. I didn't want to take any chances so put the torn piece together with electrical tape (without covering the holes). Looks solid and it'll hold while I figure out a name for this thing and buy a new one from the parts store 🙂. Subscribed!

We've had very good luck with this motor. It's running great now. Thanks for watching.

Thanks for watching. Although this is good for a thin strand of lights, it's probably not a good repair for your hedge trimmer cord. When moving your trimmer around, you are constantly pulling on the cord and putting stress on the repair. This type of repair isn't strong enough to withstand any abuse like that, and would most likely pull apart. This is ok for the lights as they will just be attached to a tree branch or your house and won't have any stress put on the repair. Good thought though, thanks.

Hey thanks man. Hope you got something out of it. Thanks for watching.

Honestly, you're probably right, but I didn't have any here, so I used what I had on hand. That said, this cord has been used many many times, out in the rain, mud puddles, people walking on it, and a bunch more abuse. The thing is holding up well, no problems. Thanks for watching.

Good on you for doing a good DIY roof job. Roofing is not hard technically. It’s just hard physically. Hard on the back bending over all day.

What you're saying makes sense. I can see that the whirlybirds would just draw straight across from the old box vents instead of trying to draw up from the soffit area. I never thought about it at the time. I just put them all back on because that's whats always been there. Maybe I'll head beck up there in the Spring and pull those old square boxes off and close the holes in. Thanks for the heads up.

Just pay some people to help u do the stuff that will get u tired and u do the important stuff the nailing u got this

I'm a few years younger than you, but not too many. I'd be lying if I said it's not physically demanding. It's a tough job, but take it slow and you can do it. Do a bunch of stretching before you go up there. Stretch your shoulders, stretch your legs, take a few Ibuprofen, it all helps by the end of the day.

Ask a few teenagers around your neighbor if they want to make some money. I would’ve definitely help you if you were in my city.

The savings was not mentioned but based on the number of shingles mentioned in the video. 45 bundles this roof was about 15square. The materials needed would have been aprox. $2800-3000. Shingles, underlyment, ice and water, nails, caulk, misc… You can build a good material cost estimate using online tools for your roof using costs in your area.

Glad you were able to get something out of it. Thanks for watching.

Thanks you

I'm sure you can do the whole dipstick tube thing. I don't have a set up for that. I know that a lot of people do that method, but I've never been a big fan of it. I would always wonder if I got all the oil out figuring that the suction tube didn't make it all the way down into the bottom of the pan. There also might be the possibility of pushing too much suction tube down there and maybe it curls up and doesn't get all the oil that way. If your engine isn't set up with the drain tube like I have, then maybe the next best step might be to suck it up the tube as opposed to doing the old garbage bag in the bilge to drain the oil into.

I checked out your video on your fireworks display. It was a good show. Good job, thanks for posting it.

Good to know that there are some fast talkers out there. Sorry that i tend to rambler on a bit. Oh well, thanks for watching it anyway.

@@wrenchgearsadventures Your post is well done and you seem very personable, but if you look at how many others deal it you'll see that many are under five minutes long, and that they're not talking fast. TH-cam is a crowded place these days, and people are busy.

I was thinking the same thing. This video is long-drawn-out

Thanks for the comment, thanks for watching.

I never use it in my laundry, only on the bugs.

Thanks. Good thought there Kevin ,... I don't have pets, and I never really see any roaming the neighbourhood, but its a good question to throw out there just in case... How Much Borax Is Toxic to Dogs and Cats? (Heather Handley, DVM, Senior Consulting Veterinarian, Clinical Toxicology) "Any ingestion could cause an upset stomach and self-decontamination via vomiting," Handley says. Handley adds that it "is not likely" that a dog or cat would be able to ingest the lethal dose of nearly 1 gram of borax per kilogram of their body weight.

It has about the same toxicity as salt but it's so bitter that most mammals would not eat much.

Thanks very much for the suggestion. I do have oil change procedures on a push lawnmower, and also a riding lawnmower in videos about how I winterize those pieces of equip. I'll make one in a couple of months or 3, on a snowblower as it gets closer to winter around here. Hope you can wait that long. I'm always open to suggestions. Thanks.
