    How dumb can she get, and what comes next?

    Actually, O2 is not flammable. It will make a flammable item burn better however.

    Cape Cod Canal

    I tried to go through in a 16 foot fisher with a 25hp outboard at tide change. The current was so strong I had to tie off and wait until it was going in my direction. 1959

    'Smart meters'?

    So far, with the new meter, daily usage readings are low & normal. There must have been something wonky with the old meter but they won't admit it.

    That second one is the start cap. It was suggested that I replace it. That pic is from the mfg website as their replacement. I ordered the correct run cap already.

    Electric guru

    The mfg website has a replacement one but says it's 600mfd 125V. It's a 240v machine. I see lots of 600mfd caps that will fit. I guess 125V is OK? Mfg pic

    I blew the run capacitor in my 3hp Dust collector today. It was running fine earlier but just groaned and popped the breaker. What can cause this? Should I replace the start capacitor too? Mfg wants $36 plus $10 shipping but I found one online for $13 delivered.

    Tried an experiment

    I didn't say I didn't have other options. I do, plenty! It was just an experiment. It didn't work. Maybe I should have put it in 'Humor' because it was fun. Now I have to clean the BP and that's not such fun.
