    Need plumbing help

    I recently moved a bunch of furniture from a couple of rooms in my house and I noticed the baseboards were discolored. So I took them off and they had obviously soaked in a lot of moisture. Turns out all the baseboards along the back of the house and halfway up one of the sides are like that...

    Any advice on what I need to know about country living/owning property?

    I currently own a home in the city but I'm going to be getting married next year and we're planning on buying ourselves a nicer home.

    Sediment broken free in pipes has likely caused lower water pressure

    Does anyone here know what I can do about this? My house is old and has a combination of galvanized, brass and copper pipe and fittings. I went to fix a couple of leaky valves outside and I noticed the pipe was jam packed full of rust and calcium. I took the pipes apart and replaced them and...

    Looks like corporate greed has destroyed Wheeler Dealers

    It was one of the few car shows I could stand to watch but looks like Velocity is going to dumb it down to what the rest of their shows basically are. A bunch of fake deals, made up problems, bad acting, sponsors shoved in your face and grown men going around playing grab *** for an hour. Oh and...

    Thinking about buying a "newer" truck - any advice?

    I've been daily driving my Duster for years now and lately I've been getting tired of constantly having to maintain it. It's no fun working on a car when you know it has to be on the road the next day. I've never owned anything even remotely new so this is a first for me. I really like the look...

    Anyone own a rental property?

    Any advice here would be really helpful.. I'm 28 and bought my first home when the market was right above it's lowest point about 4 years ago. I like the neighborhood but I don't like the house and there isn't enough room for my Mopar activities. I bought the house for $145k when I was only...

    Auto shop business practices

    I've always daily driven my Duster and I've only had my car in the shop a couple times for minor things where I already knew what the problem was. I don't really know how the whole repair side of everything works. I have a buddy who has an early 2000's S-10. This thing is turning into a piece...

    I want a Harley some day

    I used to never really care about bikes at all but I was at this guy's house not too long ago and he had this old school 50's Harley panhead that I fell in love with. I've never had a bike so I'd have to go take the class and get certified and all that, but I was wondering what the story was...

    Gas wont work with MIG welder

    I bought a Hobart 140 and have practiced flux core welding a bit, so I decided to practice with gas. I got an Argon/CO2 tank and solid wire and hooked everything up the way it says to, including flip flipping those two wires inside the housing. When I turn the gas on, the CFH gauge is pegged...

    Need advice with 2003 Acura RSX

    My girlfriends 2003 5 speed RSX had the battery go out about a month ago. We replaced it with one from NAPA and it was fine for a couple weeks. After a couple weeks it developed a condition where you'd turn the key to start it and it would slow crank for a second and then not do anything. Then...

    Anyone here have knee problems?

    I'm going to the doctors for the second time regarding my knees this Friday. A year ago or so I was fielding some balls on the baseball field when my knee started hurting as I was running to one. I limped around for a day or so and then it was fine. Last summer I went for a run and halfway...

    I had to rat on someone for the first time ever

    Am I dumb for feeling bad about this? I work for the government and I haven't even been there a year yet. There is an engineer there who was really nice and welcoming to me when I got there. He's from somewhere in the middle east so sometimes he has communication problems but its not that...

    Where to buy classic automotive art?

    I want to spice up my house with some classic mainstreet/downtown/auto art but I don't have the money to buy the real stuff. I don't want it to be original or anything, I'd be perfectly happy with a replica copy. Do you guys know of any good sites I can check out? This is one example of what I...
