I purchased this cheap car charger, battery and wall charger off ebay.com for my Nokia 6133 phone. I loved the warning on the car charger, “cigar plug”? Luckily, I have a cigar so all I need now is to find the plug?
Replacing a 90 degree swivel
I love replacing 90 degree swivels. My favorite is when a hose falls out of the 360 boom and you have to put it back in. (If you have ever replaced one before you know what I’m talking about.)
Unloader problem – update
I installed my spare unloader today. When installed it only gave me around 500 psi.
Not really sure how I got the pressure to 1200 psi but I did. Maybe someone can explain to me how to do it correctly. (US ParaPlate, model BR5-2 pressure 750-2000 psi)
Unloader problem
Always bad when water in coming out from underneath the equipment room door. The unloader stem broke off. Not really sure if that is normal wear or not. Kleen-Rite sells replacement stems but I am not really sure how to get the stem out of the unloader.
The pump was running rough so I replaced the o-rings. Afterwards it still was running rough and I think the pump needs to be readjusted, but I did not have my socket set with me.
It snowed again!
2 times in one year! It did not stick on the roads and it melted really fast. But I was scared about driving in the snow so I went back to sleep.
Hydrominder Problem – update
Earl sent in a message about my previous hydrominder problem:
Earl Weiss says: “I think the white float is sitting too low in the water. My guess is it has some water in it. Pull it out of the tank and look at it. You will be able to see if there is water in it. If there is you can unscrew the cap and empty the water, but if it has water in it it most likely has a leak and will happen again and needs to be replaced.”
He was exactly right about the float: the next day I was trying to fix the problem and noticed (top picture) that the float was full of tire cleaner. I replaced the float and I think everything is fine now. Thanks for the comment Earl and if you want you can check out the exciting video again so you can notice the problem now in retrospect.
Last known photo of my Toyota hub cap for my Honda Fit
Well it’s official: I lost my Toyota hub cap again. I think it is gone forever. But I did find this 15 inch Toyota hub cap, too bad I need a 14 inch Toyota hub cap for my car. Maybe I can trade someone?
I have very fond memories of my Toyota hub cap. Like the time Greg was washing my car: he was showing off his tire cleaner and how well it worked. It worked so well that large chunks of paint came off the hub cap. You should have seen Greg’s face…those were the days.
Vacuum island light burnt out – Update
Thanks to Carolyn for reminding me to fix my burnt out bulb, I totally forgot about it. Also, thanks to Greg for the bulb.
Cool or lame?
Ultra 12GB SpaceStation USB Flash Drives
This has got to be the coolest product ever or the lamest. This would be really cool if your security system could accept usb flash drives (one of mine can). Then you could put seperate events on seperate drives. Or you could just get a really large flash drive (I have a 4gb flash drive).
It’s official!
I’m retarded! I kind of purchased the incorrect florescent bulbs. Just a little off… I guess that Home Depot did not have the correct bulbs I needed.
