This channel is all about random things and projects I get involved in. Also have some goofy family / dog stuff. Anything I have to do and can't find a video to help me get it done I try shoot a video as I go to help others out. Usually I have to video everything myself so quality is not always the greatest.

    Let me see if I understood what you are saying. Most propane generators don't have a propane shut off valve that will shut the gas off, if the generator fails to stay running, and because you bypassed installing a regulator this will amplify that problem, if true I will need to get a 110 volt shut off valve, that's held open with voltage.

    If you have nothing in line to stop the gas flow if the generator stops you absolutely need something, unless you like to be on the local news ruining a bunch of people's days.

    Q. I have this time (ESP Modular) master valve installed right after the 5HP pump in my back yard, and would like to know what's the right connection for the wirings? Currently, two wires coming from the master valve, one installed in C and the other wire installed under station 1 ! I am not sure if this is right or not. Why I am I asking? well, because when i test all valve, station one works only and the other stations (from 1-7) doesn't work! This device was set for something else, and I am now trying to use it for some other irrigation layout in my backyard. TIA all for the help if anyone can help in this matter. Mohamed Dubai

    I found the same thing, removing the bolster was the final step needed. The plate underneath the deck is aluminum, with the two dissimilar metals, they will start to corrode over time. Water will speed this up, and salt water will do so even faster. I don't know if aluminum screws can be found to replace the stainless steel, or if they would be sturdy enough for this application, but if so, that would be the best solution To figure out the bolt hole pattern, first get the old seat post removed, and measure the distance between two opposing bolt holes. I think mine was 8" apart, which means I'd be looking for an 8" 6-bolt seat post base (count the number of bolts, 5, 6, whatever it takes). There are other seat post solutions for this as well, if this particular model can't be found. SPRINGFIELD Marine 1250250-L1 Mainstay is the one I went with at the time, and just replaced everything. SEARCH AROUND, the price on these seat posts will vary WILDLY. I know the prices for mine ranged from $180-400+, so search around, and look for deals.

    Van, by chance do you know how to access and replace the belts on an Onkyo DX-206 6-disc player? The carousel tray on mine will not open or close. When I press the open button, I can hear the motor working, but I believe the belt has broken from old age. I have removed the cover. I have searched the web and KZread but have not found any specific and detailed information as to how to do it.

I bought the 12mm universal (home depot calls it 3/8 drive 12mm universal) that's the one I got. wish me luck. I may put a safety net so it doesn't fall into the bilge. Any tips on putting it back in would be great. thanks again. great video.

    Grease the rubber gasket so you can easily turn it to line the bolt up. Be prepared to cut up your hands, hurt your back leaning over, and swear a lot.

  • @stevesantagati2264
    @stevesantagati22646 ай бұрын

    I did it. took about 2hours. (it's like a pro level version of the game OPERATION) Unfortunately I didn't see the "grease the gasket" until just now. But gentle taps lined up the bolt hole once it was in the engine block hole. I was worried about cross threading but it went in fairly smoothly and I backed it out once to check the threads. The grease would have also helped in the anode going back in the hole. Things to add to your follow up video: 1. those pliers you show in your video are a MUST have ( I bought some) and get a LONG flat head screw driver (6" plus handle). 2. remove and replace the anode via the oil filter side. 3. Once you place the anode back, close to the hole resting where you can touch it with your fingers, use a LONG screw driver or rod, put it in the anode assembly bolt hole and use that to guide it back to the engine block hole. Use a mirror and brite light, go slow. patience is paramount.,4. DO NOT put the bolt in place until the anode assembly is secure or it will fall into the bilge. This job is doable but not for guys that don't have common sense@@Channel-About-Nothing

    I’ve checked anodes on several outboard motors. 1. The fact that your anode is deteriorated is a good thing; it means it did its job. 2.the zinc you have softened on certain spots and broke off and went for a ride into the cooling system (think kidney stones) but most likely will NOT be an issue. 3. You did a great video. 4. So, in the end. Would you suggest taking off the intakes or using a “doll hand” approach to taking out the anode ? Thanks

I didn’t change my oil on time and I think oil started making the belt slip destroying the belt so now I think the idler pulley spins very fast so I’m going to replace that. If that Idler pulley spins really fast does that mean it’s bad ? I think it’s supposed to have a little tension and not roll like a rollerskate.

    I don't think people realise just how much better it works bending the two pins vs just the one. I get a HELL of a lot more response's with the two pins bent!! I think people are just getting mixed up between static and white noise. Bending the one pin gets rid of the mute so you can hear between stations as its scanning, but bending the other as well doesn't make the white noise in between stations louder but has an interesting effect on how static like the radio is when picked up as its attempting to run the radio in stereo on a mono speaker . I've actually tried both as an experiment and can honestly say the entities/spirits can actually manipulate the radio easier when the two pins are bent, maybe this is because the audio is just slightly distorted enough making manipulation of audio easier.
