The key! RIP

Not 100% sure about the US but in Canada most Condo or apartment buildings are 208v 3-Phase, at least in my area. My understanding is it's quite common in the US as well but I can't say for sure..

My grandmother used a portion of her funds for an annuity. She lived to 95 and it worked out extremely well for her. Her female siblings all lived to at least 94, with the oldest being 107. Not a bad bet, though I would never want to make it a centrepiece of a retirement portfolio.

I've had some poor experiences flying and prefer to drive or take the train but that's usually not realistic. Usually it's long delays or almost missing connecting flights but I have also had several very overly aggressive security folks over the years. My most recent was a relatively local...

So I got the Speed-Bleed Pro kit with the C900 Honda adapter. I discussed with the guy at Speed-Bleed who replied to my email and his suggestion for the clutch hydraulics (which they don't have an adapter for) was to grab a spare cap, drill a 7/16" hole in it, and he would send an extra...

I wish I could buy Co-op oil but there are no distributors anywhere near me. Not going to buy by the litre at a gas station. I’m making an effort to buy Canadian where I can but I’d be happy to buy from a smaller American company as well, such as HPL.

My mom had a PT convertible. I did not like driving it with the top up but.. opened up, it was pleasant. I drove it through the Rockies with her one summer day, top open, and it was a really fun drive. Not saying it was a “good” car but it had some nice moments under the right circumstances.

I imagine they could be significant over the course of the vehicle lifetime.

I do t have a lot of luck with Canadian Tire. They rarely seem to have what I need. Inventory is not accurate at the store I go to.

I have friends in Saskatchewan and Ontario with heat pumps and all are very happy with them. Both of the Saskatchewan friends have Fujitsu heat pumps and say the backup heat strips aren’t needed until it gets down to about -30c (-22f). I believe the COP is around 1.8 at those temps and goes up...

When I used to run a mobile PC repair and service business I would generally fire a few clients per year. Sometimes I simply did nothing because it was unlikely they’d need me again and there was no point in formalizing it. Other times though, it was for repeat clients who behaved...

I saw your post when I was researching. 👌I didn't ask for anything specific on the order but this is something I'll do myself in the future. This is on the way and should be here tomorrow. His suggestion for working with the clutch reservoir was to grab an extra cap and he would send all the...

I’m not a mechanic so have little experience with it but I replaced the muffler on my old 93 Tercel last year. It lasted over a decade and because I used anti seize back in the day, I was able to remove it with hand tools, with no trouble or extra effort.

I'm going with a Speedi-Bleed. I've seen quite a few positive comments on Bitog for this and when I emailed them, they got back to me with helpful info and helped me come up with a custom solution to work for the CRV clutch reservoir, which they don't actually have parts for. Definitely happy...

Would one of those work well for a clutch? I understand this particular one can be tough to bleed and may need pressure

I'm looking to buy a brake bleeder kit that would be able to do both brakes and clutch on a 2005 CR-V. I'm interested in hopefully getting a Motive or else Speedi-Bleed but am not sure which one would be best to cover both. Bonus if there's something that will also handle other vehicles or...

Agreed!! Next time he’s at the dealer he should get a quote on a new long block, as it will be needed sooner rather than later!!!

I use it for writing Powershell scripts and solving complex IT issues when I don’t have a good grasp on them already. What I’ve found is that it excels for me when I feed it as much detailed info as I can. In some IT scenarios I have typed out a number of paragraphs detailing what I’m looking...

Where do you get the bearings? Any specific brand you favour?
