    ATV mounted sprayer

    Real chemical gloves first...always. I have the exact unit. I love everything about it except the lid that just doesn't want to properly thread but whatever. Glyphosate will go and largely stay in suspension. I do what Sportsman762 does but in the end I use an ash shovel but you could use...

    Hey, my hand is raised. I get to drive it on vacation. Sometimes.

    GM recalls 721K trucks with 6.2L engine

    I saw a video from a guy that's had a few of these engines apart and what he found was the material on the piston that secures the circlip for the piston pin had broken free. I've never hear of such a thing.

    Invasion Of The Marijuana Growers

    Elect a better sheriff. A few years back, the Major county sheriff went after every grower with raids to verify absolute accountability of product and money. It's the same thing ATF was doing to gun dealers; any errors and you're done. It's my understanding no one survived. It's like going...

    Is my diesel still usable?

    Pour some in a clear glass container to look for water. I parked my 6.5 diesel pickup for three years while I was in Japan. That tank got lousy mileage but it ran fine.

    Electric Chainsaws and Working out of a Bucket

    I'm in the process of re-clearing the slope in front of our building. The initial time was days before the dozer came to level a pad. We had no idea how aggressively oak trees suckered. Most of them got chem'd but maybe a third didn't when we ran out of poison. We're after those suckered...

    Chain sharpening difference?

    I'd rather listen to Taylor Swift than look at that.

    Chain sharpening difference?

    I'll delete this at anyone's request but I believe: A dull or improperly sharpened chain will run hot. A hot chain will stretch. A stretched chain will wear the drive sprocket. The whole thing gets expensive.

    Chain sharpening difference?

    Are you bringing down the depth gauge or at least checking it between substantive sharpenings? If not, yes, the chain will progressively take less of a bite. I use the size of the chip to determine whether I need to drop the depth gauge.

    GM MagneRide Suspension

    Excellent points and by the way my ZR2 with DSSV units, regardless of it's height, it rides and tracks incredibly well. Coming out of Cripple Creek, I forgot to take the cruise control off. There's what I believe is a reducing radius turn and I fumbled to find the disengage on the cruise. It...

    GM MagneRide Suspension

    LCG, That's a nice ride. I was pushing my wife's Caddillac CTS coupe hard heading west up the canyon to Estes park. I could feel the rear end load up and walk right before it broke loose. A ZL 1 1LE went around me like I had the park brake on and disappeared. We sold the thing and bought...

    Skid plates

    There's an 18 year old thread with no resolution. Is there a skid plate for a JD3720?

    Propane tankless water heater

    The internal size of the pipes in your hose. Hey, it's been a while; maybe it's nothing.
