    Why Does Low Cranking Rpm Cause No Start?

    On a fuel injected gas engine? My Honda 300 motorcycle is not starting up now after it was last run in November. I will be replacing the ten year old battery. My question is more general. Low cranking rpm leads to compression loss past the rings but does that prevent the spark plug from...

    Bought a 100oz Silver Bar

    I bought both bars online at Costco.ca. The warehouses are out of stock on them. You can see that in the screen shot of Costco.ca that I posted. Shipping is included in the price. They sent it by Canada Post the first time and Purolator the second time. The second one arrived two days after I...

    Solar panel, with a switch, would be a more appropriate description, I think.

    Bought a 100oz Silver Bar

    Ha, ha. I won't invest in crypto coins because there is nothing to back it. Even stocks and bonds, there are too many variables beyond my control. My stash of silver, which I plan on expanding, is something I have in my possession and no one can take it away, not even the government. Because of...

    Bought a 100oz Silver Bar

    Processing and handling makes the 100oz bars a bit less expensive per ounce. I am not intending to barter my silver for groceries. I am planning on holding it long term, to weather troubled economic storms ahead, and also to keep my savings safe from government overreach.

    Bought a 100oz Silver Bar

    I do not have an apocalyptic Mad Max view of the future and do not think that we are going to descend into chaos and lawlessness. No need to stock up on firearms and ammunition. Tariff wars between the US and Canada could hurt both our countries, Canada much more so than the US because we are...

    Gas Range Ignition Module

    I did. Front left wasn't firing, so I connected the wire from rear right and front left started firing. I did quite a bit of testing but wasn't able to pin down an exact defect.

    Bought a 100oz Silver Bar

    I buy it at the retail price but bullion metal dealers will only buy silver from you at about a 12% discount off the retail price, which is their margin.

    Bought a 100oz Silver Bar

    I have little faith in politicians managing money wisely, so I finally took the plunge and bought this Royal Canadian Mint bar from Costco three weeks ago for C$4939. Todays price for the same bar is C$5066. At least the price is moving in the right direction. Price has to go up 12% for me to...

    Gas Range Ignition Module

    Whirlpool GW397LXUS06 120V plugs in on the right (red dot is L/line) and the four igniters on the four burners plug into the four QD terminals. Issue I am having is that no spark is generated at two of the four burners. The inside of this module is potted, so I cannot see what is inside but...

    Looking For A Ratchet Drive Pipe Wrench

    I have a few basin wrenches but they do not have the same self-clinching action pipe wrenches do and slip on the round nuts. The fact that the fixed jaw on the basin wrench has the opposite curve to what is optimal does not help.
