Not the best way to start a friendship; standing on someone elses stuff? He had shiny earrings at least 2 carrots apiece or is it carats?
Broken back up air compressor – Update
It only took me 5 months to order and get the replacement belt. The bill did not have a total but the sales person said it should cost around $40. Now I need to install the belt.
To order the belt just call 1-888-895-4549 and ask for the 007-0068 belt. It is the only belt they ship / sell so it is easy.

Osborn Hardware in Wylam
After over 3 years I finally went to the hardware store down the street from my car wash. It was really a great place to visit: it was like stepping back in time. Oh, and they have tape!
Icy Trash
Still below freezing and there was kind of a trash problem at Wylam. Really nothing happening exciting today.
Slugbuster coin jam
I had a coin jam today. Cool!
Broken rotary switch
One of my meter box’s rotary switches quit turning today. Now I need to find an extra rotary switch somewhere, maybe Kleen-Rite.
Hooked up anti-freeze based chemical – Update
I think that the anti-freeze won the contest against the water weep system for my foam brush. But, that is because my weep mizer was messed up and I needed to readjust it another degree. For the water weep system, only 2 out of 4 bays were weeping while the anti-freeze worked in all the bays. I also needed to salt the bays today. I was surprised with how many people actually washed their cars today when it was below freezing.
Hooked up anti-freeze based chemical
I hooked up my foam brush anti-freeze based chemical today. I will have to see which method works better; the water weep system or the anti-freeze system.
Hydrominder problem
My hydrominder got stuck so I squeezed the metal piece that holds the float. I believe it was sticking in the cap.
Am I cheap or practical? You decide!
My Weep Mizer was giving me the wrong temperature so I went to Lowes to purchase a thermometer. I really wanted to purchase an ir thermometer but my cheap / practical side made me purchase the $5 digital thermometer instead of the ir for $64.98.
My Weep Mizer says it was 43 degrees and the cheap thermometer said it was 38 degrees.
Greg told me that there was a screw on the censor to adjust the temperature on the Mizer. I decided to just adjust the start temperature by 5 degrees!
