    Belt replacement best practice

    The spring in tensioners often gets work hardened and overtighens the belt, especially with high hours. Had a customer that kept replacing water pumps with blown out bearings due to an old tensioner.

    Weird random no starton my Neon

    When I had the ignition lock problem I jumped 25 to 26 with the key on just to crank it. Hunk of wire with two spades crimped on, quick plug/unplug . Got me going for a week until I could rip the column apart.

    Weird random no starton my Neon

    I’ve had problems with several Chrysler products of that vintage where the lock cylinder wouldn’t go to the start position. Felt like it did but no good. https://www.dormanproducts.com/p-45278-924-704.aspx

    2025 Cummins Rams moving to 8 Speeds

    ZF’s off-road units are bulletproof. Their small industrial MDU’s I’m kinda meh on, seem durable but difficult to service. Leaky output seals involve major disassembly.

    Better NM wire staples?

    The way these and the previous ones posted are made with the points skewed at opposing angles makes them twist in old wood. I haven’t found any I like better.
