Folks, I will be putting my car on a rotisserie this spring and having it soda (or vapor) blasted to find out how deep of a hole I have dug for myself :). There is a coating they spray on it afterwards to prevent flash rusting for about 5 days. I intend to seal the whole car with 1 part epoxy...

Folks, I am going to be taking body panels back to bare metal ( soda blasting unless I can figure a better way) and electrolysis for the parts . International sells a one pack alkyd primer that is designed to roll / brush on but I have seen it diluted and sprayed.. and after sitting out in the...

I know absolutely no one that is into football and this question has been bugging me.. If letting the air out of a football makes it easier to hold and Tom Brady let the air out of the footballs so it would help him...didn't he, by virtue, make it easier to hold for everybody on the field...

I am ready to start banging my head against the wall. Last year, when I re installed our gas tank, I bought a new seal, cleaned up that section of the tank and re installed a new sender. It leaked when the tank was filled past the sender. So I decided to replace the sender since we were...

My '06 RAM 1500 radio has a mind of it's own. It is either on or off when the truck is started..it may be working in aux and when you start it, it won't work. If it doesn't work when you start the truck..there is nada you can do to get it to work..on the other hand, if it is on...it will...

Folks, I am almost ready to put the snow blower away ..but I have a question.. With ethanol being added to the gas at the pumps...it is making it really hard on gas stabilizers to keep all good over the spring / fall period.. I have had to clen more than one of the carbs on my small gas...

Hi, My radio either works when I start the truck or it doesn't. If it works, it works perfectly until I turn off the truck. Sol'n..don't turn off the truck :) First thought the problem was temp related. cold or warm, it is a crap shoot ... I have the key problem that disabled my air...
