Always keep a length of fiber optic cable in your pocket. That way, if you’re ever stranded on a desert island, you can bury it in the sand, and within a few days a backhoe will come along to dig it up, and you can hitch a ride home.
My father in law was just telling me that he got a lot of free tools because the electricians would set them ontop of the electrical cabinet and forget about them. He would find the tool later on when he came through to paint the cabinet.
There's a very specific genre of workshop consumables, the ones that you only need once in a blue moon but you can't do without when you do need them, where you can't quite tell how long they've been kicking around in the shop because they haven't re-designed the packaging since the 1960s. Water finding paste is in that genre.
Likely Milwaukee rated it for water only but seeing as how #2 Diesel is already an oil and practically can be a lubricant, on top of not being anywhere near as solventy as gasoline, you could get away with using it once or twice in a pinch.
Used that stuff on oil tankers. The trick was to tap your steel toecap on the dip tube to simulate the dipstick bottoming out before it reached the water.
My grandfather always kept some of that around in his boat shop. Folks coming in complaining about the sputters, a quick glob of that on a loooong screwdriver would tell the tale.
@Andy Solomons Because like virtually all TH-cam creators, the video gets released a couple of days earlier to Paterson supporters, as a link to the privated video.
@Andy Solomons Ohhh... That will be me then. Nor I. But Your ears and eyes work. If you just watch a video on youtube once a week sure. But evey video always has the time traveler queastion. You don't have to be tech savvy. I'm a lowley plumber as my main trade. It's a bit like getting to the cafe in the morning with a early paper and some butt hole has filled in the crossword.
Immediately bought some water detecting goo after I saw this, I do small engine repair on the side and get customers that put water in their fuel tanks all the time, my original testing protocol was sniff and try to light it on fire. NOW I'VE GOT THE GOO!
I work on a towing vessel in the gulf coast that pushes chemical barges. I use water finding paste on a stick every time we take on fuel to make sure it's free of water.
Good practice! We use shell aviation water detector tabs for suspended water detection in diesel and jet A1. Standard practice post sample is to always introduce water to check detection cap / paste is working.
In a much younger lifeline, when gas-jockies were a thing, we had a waxy crayon goo type applique to put on the 14-16 foot dipstick. For precisely the same purpose.
I use the same stuff at work. Gas and water finding paste. Gas to verify tank levels, water to see how much we need to pull off of our diesel/kero/hexane/naphtha etc tanks.
@@buddersthepuunk Only pulled out when ya need to make yourself look busy without actually havin to do any hard work xD I wonder what would happen if a chunk of this paste somehow ended up in an engine due to being sucked through the fuel 🤔
@Right Round Bold of you to assume there's a filter, around here once the factory originals give up the ghost that's just extra parts for the fuckit bucket and more beer from the gettin place after justifying to the missus that the money went to gettin a new filter
Few years ago used to get free fuel from scrapped cars. We'd receive a 25 litre plastic container of fuel on a Friday. What we did was place a funnel in the fuel tank about 45o angle. With a ladies stocking pulled tight over the funnel. Then you poured the fuel slowly into the car and any water ( there was usually a little bit) bounced of the stocking...
We use this stuff in the RAF here in the UK. We use it to find the water line in the bottom of 2.5 million litre Bulk Fuel Installations. We also use fuel finder paste to take a 'dip' reading in millimetres to then convert it into litres from calibrated charts to make sure the cold war era tanks haven't leaked overnight... You know what's always puzzled me?... you know we're like 70% water or whatever the fuck... If a human was to fall in the fuel Installation tank... Would we be able to float? Or would we meet a horrific demise by sinking straight to the bottom and drowning in AVTUR (Jet A1) fuel?...
used that at the gas station I worked at in my misbegotten youth to prove to customers we didn't have water in our tanks unless we did that one time after a flood,
We use this stuff around the metal shop to find water leaks on larger tanks. You paint the inside of your weld with this and spray the outside with a spray bottle. No color change means you're g2g.
It amazes me how many people even up here haven't seen the inflatable shop trick. Makes me sad that my parachute ended up on the long term borrow program.
Old parachute over a piece of equipment, Herman Nelson under one side with the intake outside the parachute, parachute half inflates like a hot air balloon. It can be 30 below outside and everything inside is toasty warm. Just be mindful of carbon monoxide.
Love your vids funny as hell and informative to those who have no clue . My uncle usta own gas station and showed me A tube of yellow goos That showed how much water was in the tank wjth the long wood pretty cool blast from the past thanks. You brought back some good memories. Thanks for that.
Used to use that stuff when I worked in a gas station as a kid. We’d stick the tanks three times a day and put this goo on the stick to check for water. Oh and I used to use that same Molykote grease on your bench on airplanes when I used to fix ‘em for the airlines back in the day.
International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers IBEW also means I Block Every Way. That applies unequivocally to every major job I've ever been on. At every turn is a sparky or a fucking ladder in any and all passageways. It's amazing to watch
Why everyone saying "glad to have you back" had you gone somewhere? Threaten youtube with abandonment? They catch you with a taillight out & find an old warrant? Near death experience? Where'd you go & when? Why was I not informed? Please, sir, a lot of us out here kind of NEED you, especially now. Thank you for all you've done, given lots of practical, applicable, useful advise, tips, methods, theory in exceptionally memorable, hilariously funny delivery. Over & above your considerable engineering expertise, you're a humanitarian, you bring us joy & give us something to look forward to. Thank you!
Where I work, we have a 400kw CAT generator, that sits on top of a tank just like that. It is inside on a level floor and a heated room. After 15 years of backup operation and peak shave duty, one of the welds broke on the inner tank and filled the dry space between inner and outer tanks with diesel. We had to get a 1000 gal tank built and slide it into the corner. Those tanks aren't available anymore and it would have cost too much to swap the generator over to a new tank.
As I sit here in Florida, there is nothing I like better than watching a couple of Canucka (Chooch and Chong) playing in the snow! Keep them frozen tundra videos coming!
We use Gasoila AP02 at my work, it’s formulated for use in ethanol fuels, mainly so it doesn’t run off when taking measurements, it works just as well in diesel applications. The good thing about APO2 is you don’t need to stir it, it’s a paste in the tube. We keep measure of water levels in USTs.
Most older gas stations keep this stuff when they check the levels of the tanks daily. Make friends with the crusty snaggle toothed manager and you can score a mostly empty tube.
I did the fuel tanks and ordering at Walt Disney World for the bus operations about 20 years ago. Used the water finding paste every morning to check the 7 underground tanks for water. I think anything over 2" on the stick called for a pump to come in and remove the water. That water paste stuff worked good.
I’d just like to say thank you for all your tips and tricks, you’ve saved me a lot of potential embarrassment and made me look like I actually know something.
Ahhh... that goop takes me back to when I was a pump-boy at a gas station. Had to check the tanks once a day for how much water was at the bottom of the tanks
Those herman nelson's are arctic swiss army knives. From heating a construction site to keeping a truck from seizing. So I guess they're really just good heaters
Used this type of goo when working with Jet A and getting fuel deliveries. Multiple ways to do it with syringes and tablets, UV lights and pads, and the goo. Goo was cheapest and fastest.
I'm a lifelong professional Laborer. I was holding my phone in my left hand hand and knocked it out of said left hand when I automatically reached for the snowball. One of the top five jobs that Laborers do is clean up after Electricians.
I’ve thrown many a sparky’s conduits off my scaffold before. When the block trains comin through, nothing stops it, not even youre precious pre bent gray PVC
You don't need a battery-operated labomba to empty that fuel tank. 1: place bucket lower than tank that needs evacuated 2: place one end of hose in tank, one end near bucket 3: have dew-claw apply negative pressure to bucket-end of hose 4: watch science-magic empty contents of tank into bucket, also maybe onto dew-claw if lucky
Canadian or not, Dewclaw is merely following one of the fine traditions of Elechickens everywhere. Our trash is always the other trades problem. We've got a "King of the Trades" reputation to uphold 😎🤘
Herman Nelson! Haven't seen one since I was in the forces. Originally designed to pre-heat jet engines. Will say the one we had were sone exciting if you messed up the ignition procedure.
Just learned what a torque multipler wrench is. If you don't know, look it up and be amazed at how easily it breaks the most rusted nuts. Would love to see them put to the test and for more people to learn about what they are and how they work.
I used that stuff back in the early 80's when I was a Domesticated Petroleum Transfer Technician. Except that back then, it was more of a paste than what was depicted here. The paste was great for spreading on toast. The stuff shown here looks more like a dipping-sauce-grade version. I always wondered if, going forward in my chemical career adventures, I would be able to come up with a paste (or sauce) that I could wipe on the end of my own personal depth gauge, and have it change color to indicate the recent presence of other males in the well that I was dipping.
I transferred some petroleum when I was just a wee lad myself. As I recall it was baby-shit yellow - although I didn't know that at the time - and turned reddish orange when it came in contact with that nasty dihydrogen monoxide lurking at the bottom of all the fermented dinosaur droppings.
We used to get new issue generators filled with "shipping fluid" in the Army. Now as shit rolls downhill, they wouldn't put an experienced person in charge of "put the generator over there and make it go", they would put literally whoever they could find "in charge" of "it", meaning you'd have a 2 man team if you include the generator itself as one of the men. Honestly, it doesn't matter since literally no one knew the generator had "shipping fluid" in it except the maintenance people who would inevitably have to at least pretend to fix it when it seized up.
I once bought a 10l military surplus canister with fuel in it - it worker like a charm in lawn mower - with our fuel prices, they paid me about 5€ to take the perfectly good canister with me.
I'm just still waiting for you to invent a tool to take the Burr off. Because the bar is so cold LOL I've been in Montana 3040 below 3 foot of ice in the driveway sledding to the school bus cuz we couldn't walk LOL but of course that was back in the eighties when the weather was better haha

My father in law was just telling me that he got a lot of free tools because the electricians would set them ontop of the electrical cabinet and forget about them. He would find the tool later on when he came through to paint the cabinet.
The best part about watching an AvE video is half the time you can't tell if he's giving you information or a sex joke
Or both at the same time. :) Info in the front, while the good stuff sneaks in from behind..

The Milwaukee pump impeller is actually nitrile according to the specs. Hell I pump gas with it.
It's a bog standard jabsco impeller too, I've pumped all sorts of noxious chemicals with mine !
I guess as long as you're not using it as a rocket turbopump for nitric acid you'll be fine.
