When you can't get that stubborn crankshaft pulley bolt to break loose. Do the following:

Set up your breaker bar and socket on the pulley bolt and brace it against a frame member or on the shop floor. dbl check your set up so that the rotation of the engine and the orientation of your breaker bar will loosen the bolt! DISCONNECT THE COIL WIRE! you do not want the engine to start.

Now check your situation out again so you are sure that when you turn the key on for a millisecond that the engine turning will loosen the bolt.

Clear all bystanders..........bump the key. The bolt should be loose.

Celebrate and enjoy the rest of your wrenching.

well i had a shaving malfunction and i found out shaving cream works great for a non-streak glass cleaner not to sure about the gell kinda but i know the barbasol....
the thick an lathery kind
i'v used it quite a few times
just get like a thin layer on and whipe it off.

 

^^ i was wondering if/when someone would mention that. in elementary school, we used it to clean the desks at the end of the year

 

yeah we did that like my junior year of high school,i gotta say it's my new favorite window cleaner literally no streak at all. i'ma try it on my dash when i get my truck back.

 

i keep my bondo body hammer in the chicken coop, because its great for getting ice out of chicken waterer's.

 

This I have to try...

 

Once I was in a situation where I had to use my cooler for a floataion device................

 

wow. hope everyone was ok... situations like that can be scary

also, a pair of pants works (kinda). you tie each of the cuffs so the foot-hole is closed off. then, out of the water, hold them by the waist band and flip them up and then down into the water. the legs should become filled with air. as the legs get straighter, close off the waist with your hands and rest between the legs. i've done it a few times, but only as practice

 

Learned this from my grandfather in law, when you want to spraypaint something but don't have masking tape to cover parts etc, just smudge some bearing grease then wipe off after painting. It works AWESOME.

 

LOL, everyone was great Irab. It turned into the best nights of our lives. To this day I have never seen a Festiva get so much air. Also, a donky can run faster than you might think

 

sounds like it should be followed up with the phrase:

"best bachelor party ever"

It was the first company picnic for my employees, I would bet they will never forget it.

 

Love exciting and new.

liquid soap+water in a spray bottle for finding air leaks in tires. Just spray over tread and sidewall and watch for bubbles.

Also diesel works better for ant mounds because unlike gas, diesel being oil based really soaks into the mound killin'em.

 

my 4runner works great for pulling jeeps out of holes.

 

 

one of the primary functions of ATF is to maintain the rubber seals in transmissions and power steering systems. I use it ALL THE TIME in my shop to bring rubber back to life. As long as it's only dry and NOT cracked, it'll make stiff rubber squishy again--just soak it overnight and rinse off in the morning.
