    What oil filter are you using on OPE, boats, snowblower generator etc?

    My zero turn mower has a Fram TG3614 on it currently. My two Polaris ATVs have Fram XG7317 filters on them right now. They are old wire backed XGs.

    Whats in it for scrappers?

    Back when the price of scrap was up there were guys that would drive around on trash night loading up anything metal for scrap money. I haven't seen anyone doing this in years though and the current price of steel scrap isn't very high.

    Out side AC unit fan having short cycle

    Sounds like it cycling off from a pressure switch. Either its low on refrigerant or running high head pressure from a dirty condenser coil. American Standard / Trane has high and low pressure switches. Not all brands have pressure switches and some only have high pressure switches.

    Should I go back to Moly grease?

    Molly grease should work better in theory for things like ball joints and tie rod ends where you don't have an actual bearing. I always use molly grease for ball joints, king pins, tie rod ends etc and use non molly for wheel bearings and universal joints.

    hvac is out at the rent house

    It all depends on your area as to what is available. R410A equipment can still be sold until the end of the year but equipment availability is really hit or miss right now. Some distributors stocked up on equipment before the change over and others didn't. Some of the new equipment isn't even...

    Talk to me about mini splits

    I would get couple more quotes. That's way too high! If you decide to do it yourself I wouldn't bother with the pre charged line set setup. All you need is a good flaring tool and a set of gauges and vacuum pump. You could rent the vacuum pump and gauges from your local parts store or go buy...

    Did they ever do anything to the pistons and liners to make them more durable on newer diesels?

    We have better coolant now. All of the OAT diesel coolants have greatly helped with cylinder liner cavitation. Before that you had to keep up with your diesel coolant additive and charged coolant filters to maintain the DCA level in the coolant. For those that don't know about it, diesel...

    Need a new heating oil tank- single vs double wall?

    Roth double wall tanks are pretty nice! We mostly install single wall tanks around here but we have done a few Roth tanks. I actually like the Roth tank better but most people don't want to spend the extra cash for it.

    Powered Anode Rod for Water Heater-- the real deal or snake oil?

    I installed one for one of my customers that had smelly hot water. It fixed the problem. I can tell you the light on them only comes on when the circuit is complete. If you try to plug it in before the tank is full of water or you don't have a good ground connection the light will not illuminate.
