    Can I mail someone a new filter for a C&P?

    Any volunteers? I bought some Fram Pro white label filters and I'd like to see them C&P'd properly by someone with a proper cutter and experience. Current BITOG opinion is that they are same as Tough Guards, but it's obvious they are not because have nitrile ADBVs.

    Torque sticks don't work /w electric impact guns?

    I have some JH Williams made in US industrial torque sticks in 60 and 80 ft-lbs versions. When I use them with my dewalt 1/2" cordless impact gun they run bolts down to 100-120 ft-lbs no matter how gentle I go. Which is the limit of the tool. Is there something about electric impacts that...

    Engine needs some choke all the time?

    I have a 7Kw briggs generator with a 420cc B&S single piston engine. Once the engine is warmed and I turn off the choke it starts surging up and down in RPM very rapidly. If I give it about 1/4 choke it purrs like a kitten even at full load. It only has about 60 hours on it. Air filter is...

    Dealing with rusted up camshafts (Engine sat open)

    I've got an engine that sat open (no valve covers) for a year and the cam lobes (and probably other things) are quite rusty. I can't pull or replace the cams. This engine is a bit exotic and would require head replacement to do so and $400 in special timing tools. Engine is mostly shot, I...
