OT motor oil pricing
|
| |
So we just had a thread about whether or not the 3k oil change is worthwhile. I had just changed my oil prior to that thread, at about 3500 miles, in preparation for my regular 600 mile drive.

When my grandson tried to wash some sneakers in the washine machine, there was a very loud ratchet noise coming from it. Seems one of the sneakers wedged against the agitator and it couldn't move.

My yard light won't go off any more. I block the detector wait 60 seconds and I hear the relay click off but the light now stays on when it used to go off. It clicks again when I block the detector, it times out and clicks again but the light never goes out.

Help with water line
|
| |
I plan on running 200 feet or water line to a detatched garage spigot and frost free hydrant. I bould the coiled black polyethelene NSF rated 3/4 tube. My intention was to place a piece of 1 1/4 inch conduit through my block wall and run the pipe through that so as to avoid any sharp edges in the block then lay the rest of the pipe... more »
