Thanks. I appreciate that. I know I've heard one other person mention the ABS pump or possibly a proportional valve. I'll wait to hear how changing out the hoses works out for you.

Is that something you can tell by looking at it? I checked that and didn't see anything apparent wrong with that.

96 Contour Blower Motor Problem

My GF has a 96 Ford contour and the heater fan just went out. It had stopped working on full speed a week ago, but had worked on the lower speeds. I'm guessing the problem is either in the switch...

I retract my statement from before. Sounds like a 200 amp service would be a good idea. Your garage sounds like it will draw more than the house! Ha Ha. Wiring the garage won't be cheap either.

Because you're doing the whole house, I'd also suggest that you hire a contractor and see if you can help. That's a lot to take on for a first timer. Not only will helping the contractor save you...

Finished Update

Well the seam is done. I ended up using a plain old household iron. I noticed the pile was not square though. What I did was I cut both pieces along the pile to get them close. Then, I marked out a T...

Yea, it took me a second as well to get what the store owner was talking about when he said to cut the 12'x14' piece in half. I was thinking lengthwise too, not widthwise and then rotating them. I...

Last time I topped it off I used 10w30. I think Scrub-a-dub uses the same during the warmer months. There's no oil in the air filter. Are you saying that's what happens with the PCV goes?

Hi Smokey. Thanks for your response. I'm not sure that we're totally on the same page. First off, you're correct, the room is 6'6" wide. The plan was not to cut the carpet along the width (12'), but...

I'd think for a home computer, you could get away with going over 300', but 500'-600' would be pushing it. Like others have said, you can try it. Personally, I'd spend the extra cash on fiber to...

Not to mention that molding is for aesthetics. It's not structural. The smaller the nail, the less the eyesoar. Smaller = better. As mentioned before, the length of the nail is much more important.

I know there's a way to rig single phase up to feed a 3-phase motor. I can't remember exactly how to do it anymore. I'd imagine that's not worth it and that it's probably pretty inefficient -...
