  Its not the distributor cap/rotor. The distributor is run off the cam shaft. Its more than likely an electrical problem,either the ECU or one of the sensors is giving the wrong info to the ECU.

  I am installing a similar Samsung dishwasher and It appears the dishwasher controls on this model are on top of the door. If I push it into the cabinet so that the rubber seals along the left and right sides are even with the cabinet front, then the controls are hidden under the counter top. Is this normal? If I pull it out so that the controls on top of the door are showing then the seals are close to 1" in front of the cabinet front! Is this normal and are the controls supposed to be operated while the door is open and then shut?

  I'm thinking my coil is bad on my 2000 civic ex. Crank - no start. Got her towed home and fuel pump relay clicks when key is turned, and fuel pump runs. Very weak spark from right end cylinder - will have to check properly again using a spark plug on all 4 plug wires. I had just gotten it rolling smooth again with new front wheel bearings, and new radiator last summer - now this. I'll tell you what, when it rains it pours! Thanks for making this video, it helps a lot!

  My first big problem was a pin in the right angle trigger switch fell out. Where in the grass, who know? Lucky, I found someone with the same model on kijiji with dying issues. Tried to switch out the switch assembly but between the corrosion and the special screws, I ended up swapping out the whole fork assembly. (Getting the switch replacement, hoo boy, scarce) Now, having hit things in the past and taller grass, I’ve sent off via Amazon for the fan by the blade (one fin broken) and the insulator that clips the blade, the edges having worn from stress and impact. Parts two weeks to arrival. Really think I should have maybe just got a replacement mower.

  I am so glad you showed the you can change the coil out without having to undo the troublesome connector ...were on the same page with not breaking that darn connector.. in attempting to take it apart to service the outer and inner seals on the distributor and replace the heater core hose... I found my connector frozen to the mounting bracket and stuck together as well.. The heater core hose was leaking due to motor oil dripping on it and wearing out the rubber hose from the leaky distributor o ring seal (S)... I could not dismantle the distributor and rebuild it on the bench nor buy a new one and replace it... So I only replaced the outer seal...now I am wondering why the heck did honda put a coolant outlet underneath the distributor where it could possibly leak oil as well as spring a leak in the coolant hose and cause terrible humidity and even coolant spring a leak around where the distributor and wires are... I do not know....but all in all these are great cars you can get a whole lot of miles out of them if you take care of them....

  Old B&D mower was working normally, suddenly stopped. I checked the rectifer with switch on, power seems to be going thru it.

  @@HomeownerDIY The ends were abit black and curved, but no pitting. When I removed the hood over the motor area, I was surprised to see so much leaves/grass packed in there, but the motor itself looked okay, just a couple small cobwebs that weren't big enough to stop anything. The motor turns freely with the blade. Is there a way to test the brushes to see if power is getting to them? My impression is the electricity turns them into magnets which then spin the motor, so move the brushes out of the motor area and see if they hold a piece of metal?

I'm using light duty 100 foot 16 awg, when I should be using 14 awg. He said this would slowly kill the motor, causing some wire to pop. I asked if there was a way to test if power was getting to the brushes, but he wasn't allowed to give advice that might kill me, lol.

If you were using a 16gauge cord, especially at 100ft, that would be a problem. The wires would get too hot because of resistanace. Please let me know the results.

  You can save a lot of time by jumping the t-stat down at the boiler for which ever zone you're testing. Just attach a jumper to the wires or twist them together and put on a wire nut. I prefer the jumper. Then you don't have to keep going up and the stairs.

The video helped to understand the mower & parts & issues, in general. I need just a bit more precise/ exact detail on how a few things are done, in checking wires with the multi-meter, & installing the brushes. I "kind of' "pretty much" get it, but for actually doing the job, (changing brushes) right now, for me, I need more exact, precise details to feel like I'm fully ready to do the job right & without issues.

  Thanks for your comment, sounds like youre reffering to wood filler(putty) Plumbers putty and silicone serve the same function(to seal out water) The way l learned is to silicone tubs and showers, where the drain isnt accessable. Putty for sinks. Putty even after 20 years is easy to remove. Silicone you will probably break the drain since the drain is old. Sink drains whether its a kitchen or bath, will eventually rot out and have to be replaced. Ive had the same drain on my tub for 60 years. The thing is the tub is used once a day(ish). Sinks are used used after every meal and when the bathroom is used. Hence why they rot oit faster. Please look in my plumbing playlist, you have many videos from a professional plumber there.
