The whole world going off Zulu year round makes absolute perfect sense. People are just too dumb to function that way. ...
re: Yamaha 4 stroke 25hp outboard not peeing.

Try to figure it out. Even the most complex outboard (etech) still has a simple cooling system. ...
re: Tool Topic: Harbor Freight/S-K, Opinions?
Posted by DownshiftAndFloorIt on 10/21/24 at 8:23 am
I spend a bunch of time with professional engine mechanics, turbine mechanics, generator mechanics, etc. and many of them use at least some Harbor Freight tools. I don't think any of them would call them good so much as good enough, and if you lose a harbor freight ratchet to the bilge it's no big d...
re: 4 Wheeler Reccomendation
Posted by DownshiftAndFloorIt on 10/21/24 at 8:17 am
We used to replace an axle on our 660 grizzly almost every year. The rear boots were always getting ripped. A whole new axle didn't cost much and was far quicker to change out than just the boot. ...
re: M1 Garand

[quote]Yeah, there are commercial products specifically designed for the Garand. I have Federal and Hornady commercial M1 Garand ammo. I wouldn't run just any commercial 150gr load though.[/quote]
Why? If the port pressure is within the range of what the rifle was designed for, why worry?

[quote]is there another way?[/quote]
Google it up. You'll need to screw a pressure gauge into a port on the engine block and then crank it up. Should just require a simple cheap gauge and maybe a bushing. I'm not familiar with that engine so I don't know exactly what is needed, but Google will kn...

Yes. That is absolutely ridiculous. I average nearly 40k miles a year driving and don't buy vehicles that often....
re: Zelensky — We will acquire nuclear weapons if we’re not invited into NATO.
Posted by DownshiftAndFloorIt on 10/20/24 at 12:25 pm
This pisses me off.
This little sawed off dude got billions of my tax dollars, and has the nerve to be making international threats like this.
I wonder what he thinks the international reaction will be to this? He's made himself into a hot potatoe. ...
re: Would you rather retire at a beach house, mountain lodge, or prairie house?

Mountains if it's just me.
Since I have a family, beach. My wife would not do well with the hard living in the mountains. ...

And our response should be that if you want that smoke, good luck. We'll publicly tell Russia that we fully support their dealing with you as you see fit and NATO will standby. ...
re: M1 Garand

[quote]wouldn't run any new commercial ammo that isn't M1 Garand specific[/quote]
Why not? I believe the CMP article lists some specific commercial loads that are safe. The 150gr stuff is going to use relatively fast powders and port pressure shouldn't be a problem with those.
Either way, an ...

Why would I be paying car notes every month my entire life?
Why am I footing the bill for my kids education?
Why am I spending $50k on a wedding?
The whole cost of American dream is ridiculous premise is well founded, but this article is dumb. ...

Planning to de-carpet and totally repaint my bay boat in the next year or two.
I have a buddy who just repainted his trawler with something similar to awlgrip. It looks amazing and supposedly will stay looking that way far better than gelcoat. He said other than the extreme amount of sanding, it...
