re: Speed queen not draining

Posted by Skeeterzx190 on 4/29/25 at 7:41 am
Well guys I siphoned most of the water out and had every intention to check for a sock. With the remaining water I decided to try a spin cycle and see if it would drain. I unplugged for 20 min to do a reset as suggested in the manual. Then selected spin cycle. Water drained as it should. I then tried a small load of laundry to see what happened. All went well. Hopefully this was a one time thing. Thanks for the replies

Speed queen not draining

Posted by Skeeterzx190 on 4/28/25 at 1:59 pm
It’s showing a ER DR code which shows it’s draining slow or not at all. YouTube shows it could be the pump , belt, or a small sock restricting the flow. Going to troubleshoot it when I get home. Any of y’all had this issue and can offer some advice?

re: Whole Home Generator DIY

Posted by Skeeterzx190 on 4/28/25 at 11:22 am
Yes I bought my generac, poured the slab, bought the generac all in one wire which is color coded at connections. Pulled my wire across the attic and made the drops on each end of the house. I installed a disconnect switch on the house on the generator side and mounted the transfer switch. My father in law is an electrician and just made the main connection for me. Paid a plumber to run the 6 feet of pipe for the gas. If I remember correctly the generator was just over $5k and the wire cost me $900 because I needed 120 feet and it’s $8-$9 a foot. May have been all in for $6500. This was in 2019 for a 22kw.
My advice don’t do it! It’s always something. Appliances, paint, etc. another Covid hits with the wrong administration in and landlords will be screwed again.
About that loud commercial, you can
Mute it. It’s either the second or third button on the right of the screen. Hood it down for a second or two and it mutes the commercial.

re: Polaris ranger crew 570

Although not the crew, I have a 2023 570 full size. I’ve had 2 adults and a child in the seat with 300-400 pounds of corn, chainsaw, and other tools doing work at the camp. I’ve never had issues. I don’t mud ride for fun and it handles muddy ditches and roads well with that load. Just wish it sat higher. I have larger tires which added a little lift. I have busted the plastic floor board twice. I added skid plates and this year a damn stick broke through about an inch before the skid plate started. Overall it’s enough power for me.
88 Mitsubishi mighty max!! Along with Huey P bridge traffic every morning on the way to school.
high MCAT scores aren’t a shoe in either. Nephew graduated top of class from DUKE. 4.0 gpa and gave commencement speech. Had a great score on MCAT. Applied for med school at duke, Stanford, and quite a few other schools on west coast just for a change of scenery. Didn’t get in any of them. He was only accepted to LSU as a legacy and southern miss because it was In state. At the last moment he was accepted to Ohio state and went that route. A lot of med school kids who are from out of the country and minorities get priority. Graduated top of the class from Ohio state and currently doing his residency at UNC chapel hill in dermatology. I guess it all
Worked out.
I have had a hoshizaki going on 5 years. No issues!
I built my home and once it was finished I had about $100k equity in it at completion. I mean some
People do build to sell and eventually build a home and are mortgage free.

I pay $5 total for two cars. I want to say it’s a $1.99- $1.79 plus the tax etc.
Some of the new fords have some sort of sound dampening design added to the windows. The windshield and front doors on the trucks is made differently then the back door glass.
I was the last truck allowed on. Trooper blocked on ramp just as I passed.
Just traveled I-55 north from Laplace to ponchatoula. 30 degrees. Pretty decent snow for a 3 mile stretch around manchac.
I purchased a 2023 Polaris Ranger full size 570 brand new for $12k. That included roof and winch.

Maybe I’m mistaken or he was blowing smoke up my butt. I do know he does very well and his wife doesn’t work.
