I have an egg sinker mold from Do-It molds. I don't have the pull pin and a new one from DO-IT cost 13.50 with shipping. The pin is about 5 cents of wire and a wooden handle. I bet someone has calipers right next to their DO-IT mold on their work bench. Could someone measure the pull pin and...
I am the original owner of a 2004 25hp Johnson. Every diagram I have found shows a core plug instead of a screen on this carburetor side vent. My carburetor has a screen instead. The rebuild kit I bought has core plugs that would fit this but no screens. In fact no website including...
I have some rusty spindles to clean and I can't find emery cloth. It there another name or a comparable product? Also, can I use it to clean the area of the spindle where the seal rides?
Thanks
Spindle sleeve product review
The spindles on my boat trailer developed a slight, round grove where the grease seals ride. The seals don?t leak grease but I was still concerned that this would allow for water intrusion and lead to bearing failure. I looked into buying a spindle repair kit but...
This is a 2002 Chevy Astro van. The engine won?t start in the morning when parked on grass at my house; it will start when parked over asphalt though. For instance, I let the mechanic have it for three days and it fired right up perfectly all three mornings. The next morning at my house it...
I am trying to remove a transmission, belt pulley from the crankshaft of a riding mower. The manual made it seem like the pulley would slide right off the shaft. My pulley was stuck of course so I tried to use a puller to free it. I ended up bending the side wall of the pulley. Where do I go...
This is a lawn mower spindle; with a pressed in grease fitting. the old one got stuck in the coupler and pulled free from the aluminum spindle. I dont know how to press the new one in without deforming it. I dont want to remove the spindle from the deck because there is a high chance of twisting...
The little ball check valve in the zerk moves freely when I push it with a pick. The grease gun is brand new and the coupler is tight. This is the underside of a lawnmower deck
Any ideas thanks.
I leave for work at 7:00 am. I idle out of the drive way with no problems. As I push the pedal to accelerate onto the main road the engine slows, misses and stutters for about 5 seconds. After that it runs perfectly fine. This never happens at any other time, it only happens when I leave at 7...
I have a 2002 Chevy Astro van. The air conditioning is blowing cool air but only on some settings.
Here are the symptoms.
When the dial is set to (Max. AC) with the fan on high, nothing at all comes out of the vent, absolutely nothing!

What is the purpose of the spinning reels roller bearing? Is it to smooth out the drag or to prevent line twist? Every time I throw light lures with little drag in the water my line gets twisted up. I was thinking that no resistance on the roller bearing causes the line to skip across the...
I am trying to upload a 1.2 G avi video file onto youtube. The youtube upload progress bar goes all the way to 100% and then freezes. About 20 min. later an error message pops up and says, "Upload failed, Unknown error"
I tried using youtube's advanced uploader but youtube says that java isn?t...
Instead of drinking and using nicotine I now stay up all night tinkering with stuff. I have designed and fabricated several boating accessories that are novel and useful. Friends are saying I should patent these things. Here is the question, is it worth it to patent these inventions? None of...
I cannot center the boat on the trailer without the boat?s strakes resting dead center on the bunks. The trailer?s predrilled bunk bracket holes are positioned in such a way that the boat?s strakes will always be centered on the bunks. I don?t like this because the boat slides off center while...
