it gets to -35 or -40 for 1-2 weeks a year here. we just had a week long stretch. - dont touch metal with your skin, it will stick. - propane doesn't evaporate. butane lighters need to be kept inside your coat or they also wont work. - if your not careful your eyelashes freeze together when you...

im surprised more of corb hasnt come up here.

ideally if your panel is properly balanced the neutral to your generator would carry no current, or just a small current. you can probably get away with one burner on the stove but the most efficient device to heat water (food) is usually your microwave. if outages are a problem, get a coleman...

as engine oil? no, big no. antiseize compounds include a few things. a grease to suspend it, an abrasive to clean the threads and to reduce vibration loosening and a cathodic protector. sometimes they are the same stuff like the aluminum one. as anti seize? its fine, you are just diluting the...

met a guy a week or 2 ago. he got it in late february (almost a year ago) and so did his wife. both in their late 40s. neither one has any taste or smell still. they coat everything in some crazy hot sauces just to taste anything. he gets pure scotch bonnet oil and hardly notices. his wife...

those are bog standard off the shelf cage nuts by the look of it. they are used on server racks fairly often these days. they allow for a bit of weeble wobble if parts are not perfectly to spec and make repair easier by having the nut still replaceable, but you dont need to hold it or get a...

the supposed normal load of 7000 rounds is already 1700-1800 pounds of ammo and belt. the listed max weight is also max landing weight, they could take off with more weight, but it was dangerous as the bombs would need to be ditched for an emergency landing.

I would probably prefer a small motorcycle battery in the trunk and a couple big super caps in the engine compartment for starting. capacitors are very lightweight and the battery cables only need to handle charging current.

during the war, chrysler produced almost all the .45 pistol ammo the us government purchased, roughly 1 billion rounds per year for 3 years. with 7 million new shooters buying 700 million rounds since march, that is equal to wartime output of ammo from the single biggest manufacturer at the...

i would go buy canvas tarps and hose it down with water before use

remember the old commercials. 20 gives you 30, 30 gives you 50, 50 gives you 80, and 60 gives you 100. you will do fine just sticking to traffic flow.

you cant really. they rely on a good twist and a bit of solder flow to hold connection and the glue for mechanical strength.

it sounds to me like they have a buck converter in that case. these are adjustable and can be had for about a buck. they are way more efficient than the 78xx series regulators and provide a slightly pulsed output that makes up for stiction in the gauge bearings. they also briefly spike on power...

actual solder and heat shrink is best. if you want, tape the joint then heat shrink over top. good heat shrink is lined with hot glue that seals everything when it is shrunk. also, see this video for a western union style splice: a splice like this will hold without solder and can just be...

looks like a knock off of 3M VHB tape. I have yet too find a replacement that is as good as the VHB (very high bond) stuff so I dont bother anymore

actually, maybe have a read of the 13th ammendment. prison labour is how the vast majority of woodland firefighting is done, and chances are good that any USA made clothing you buy was made by a prisoner. dont worry about the low pay. its not costing tax payers for the most part. usually its a...

most CD players only output a portion of the actual sound data on a CD. CDs also have redundant data sets. you can put a piece of 1/4" wide tape on the surface radially without causing it to skip. the best thing to do is to rip the CD onto a better storage media like a hard drive and not worry...

hang a black flag at the end of the mast, now youre a pirate

Canadian Valiants and Darts, and other Canadian Chrysler cars

its a canadian valiant, see here: Canadian Valiants and Darts, and other Canadian Chrysler cars

so i adjusted the fronts after a bit of driving the car. i didnt recheck the rears. the front passenger side was fine, one click made it just start to drag, the drivers front was quite a bit out though. the pedal feel and height improved pretty dramatically. i will give it a bit of driving...

I adjusted the rears, problem worsened. i realized I was doing it the wrong direction on the passenger side. corrected that issue and returned to where it was before it seems. will adjust fronts and bleed all 4 later.

brakes are bled and adjusted, and its not dangerously excessive, just mildly excessive. I will probably just live with it until I can upgrade them, thanks all

I have an old death onion in my 62 valiant. The brake pedal has more dead travel than it should. The brakes all work and everything, but a friend suggested that the pushrod might need adjusting. Is this a possibility? anyone got instructions?

it is not unlikely that the metal was stamped in the US, but to make it cheap enough they either use prison (slave) labour, use cheap materials, or both. this will continue to get worse with the tariffs because it is now cheaper to import a finished product than to import the material to make it.

this is super exciting. glad to see it generating smiles. has anyone come up with a standalone engine or engine/transmission controller yet?

See about getting yourself a deadblow hammer. They put force on things well above their weight and dont peen the ends of things as easily You can rinse your eyes with any potable liquid. water, the bottle of coke you were drinking, kids koolaid, vinegar, etc. some wont be pleasant, but they...

the K frame on the early As is the same between /6s and small blocks, atleast visually. you can put later suspension parts on the early cars, so I would guess that better/later suspension arms, spindles, brakes and torsion bars for a v8 is a good start. that also can get you the big bolt pattern...
