    welder/welding machine question

    Because I want to know basically if this particular one is plug and play I know my machine is supposed to be capable of running "a" spool gun but I don't know if it will work with "this" one.

    welder/welding machine question

    The first job I have in mind is some thinner stuff, probably 1/16 or so Where mig wire is sold in many thicknesses I only saw 0.030 in the small aluminum spools. Hopefully that's what this unit takes.

    welder/welding machine question

    There is a multi pin receptacle on the front of the machine that was told to me when I bought it (brand new!) is for a spool gun. That's all I currently know That and when we were in that store that's closing I bought a spoolmate 100 because they had it on a hell of a sale/ and told my wife to...

    welder/welding machine question

    This one does.... I don't know what you're considering "older". There is definitely a plug there for one and I remember there being a sticker over it bragging about the fact that it's there when I bought it brand new from what is now air has.

    welder/welding machine question

    This isn't something I've wanted for full time usage, more of a "get me out of a bind" quick fix, small fix sort of thing. I was wondering when I was actively looking for a spool gun closer to back when I got this mig, why they were so expensive.

    Help Identify 904 Trans

    No it is a lockup version or it won't have that electric plug in switch on the back of the front case. They switched to having the computer engage the lockup somewhere around 88ish

    welder/welding machine question

    I think that's the current version of my machine If this one doesn't work for me that I bought would you be interested in selling your spool gun??? I won't be able to know until at least Xmas morning as I had to put it in the cart since my wife has no clue about such "garage stuff".

    [WANTED] Looking for a 1971 225 engine & trans

    not any changes in the engine itself that meant much of anything, most changes were add on/ bolt on in those years. If you put a 68 engine in there or you put a 74 engine in there nobody at the local drive in would know the difference....as long as you painted it the right color for your...

    welder/welding machine question

    I have a Millermatic 185 that I bought new around 1997-98ish. been a great machine. I bought that one at the time because I was dead set on a 220v unit as Id burnt out 2 lesser 110 machines already. I bought the one I did specifically over the bigger millermatic 250 for 1 reason; it openly...

    distributor question

    Still better to find a stock original distributor blow it apart and rebuild it. New ignition pickup, new advance can some different springs, maybe weld up the slots to limit centrifugal advance, depending on what you're going for, stab it in and done.

    I have one Melling spd25. Check eBay, it's been a couple of years but I found it there for around $100. The second one of those cans I've bought, the first one was 15 years ago and I drove to some not so good neighborhood in Chicago (they're all like that now) to an obscure automotive machine...

    Dealing with a negative family member…or a person who just likes to put you down

    Why not see if it'll run before going thru all of that and see.. those engines can take a beating. I've had radiators clog solid, thermostats stick, hoses blow, and more cause overheats. It would suck to have the motor gone thru and find out when the fresh one overheats that is the radiator. . I...

    Dealing with a negative family member…or a person who just likes to put you down

    Not necessarily. My dad had and then passed to my brother, a 76 feather duster /6 3 speed manual brakes (4 wheel 9" drums) manual steering. I remember I used to have a get book of all the service bulletins from 1976 and there was something about 76 model year cars built after 1/1/76 being govt...

    Dealing with a negative family member…or a person who just likes to put you down

    The crazy part is if everyone involved my wife and I are the only ones that actually have jobs that we have been at for 26 and 12 years respectively, full time 40 hours a week steady, and it seems they hold that against us? That we actually work? That's something I don't get. I mean my older...

    Dealing with a negative family member…or a person who just likes to put you down

    I didn't read the whole thread but by the title and first post it does sound like my life except for that i'm the middle brother, and we basically just fell away from each other over the years, but since my mom passed away 4 months ago I've been the punching bag from both ends and am blamed for...

    What carburetor do I have?

    That is the older version of the BBD used up until about 1973/74ish. Then the one in the pencil drawing a couple of posts up replaced it. As far as the Holley 2280 I've had a few, my 78 fury still has its original which runs good but is going because it's a lean burn version that doesn't have a...

    I guess advertisers think we are all f***ing stupid

    Another thing about advertising that's been the last handful of years that pisses me off (all advertising not just car commercials) is when I'm watching something and it goes to commercials I flip the channel. Guess what. No matter what other channel I choose THEY are also on a commercial. W T...
