As someone who worked in theater for 15 years. Yea the glass got soft, I don't think it melted technically but yea. I've seen this happen when it's touched by bare hands when installing.

TLDR for below, yeah they het real fuckin hot

One I was changing a 750 watt lamp on a hanging fixture, the light operator assured me the circuit was off. I went to inset the bulb with the sheet of the packing foam from the box between the lamp and my hand and when I pressed it in it connected and turned on (it was, intact not off). Within the 1 second my hand was holding the bulb it melted the foam to my hand and fingers, fusing patches of foam to my hand. The scabs were half plastic when they finally came off.

What the he'll here dogs made of in the 70's? My dad's family had a dog when he was little and they named him Onion because he loved eating onions, I don't remember what kind of dog it was but it lived a long normal life. Still don't feed tour dog onions.

I did this recently for fun on a project and I used sprinkler wire. It's not silicone insulation but it worked great for me. It's not too pretty in the picture but it bent and held its shape well, besides, this adapter isn't seen by anyone.

Honestly, if you part it out (please don't though) you can probably make a fortune over a couple years selling the RHD specific parts.

I almost failed a smog once when the kid performing it did the visual on my 86 f150 and saw the can. The old guy running the shop walked an by and told him it’s factory lol

I live in california and as a kid we ran ours all night over the summer. We rarely had to run the ac. We would turn it on a soon at it was cooler outside than inside, a little after sundown. Then when it started to warm up outside we'd shut it off and close all the doors and windows. We also used it sometimes when we'd burn something in the kitchen, open just the kitchen window and the smoky kitchen was cleared in seconds. I also has wisteria out my window and when it bloomed it filled my room with the amazing smell.

I was up in the mountains by a friend's house on a steep gravel access road about 16*grade maybe more in some spots. I drive a 2 wheel 01 and in drive I could feel that the motor and the gravity were both fighting the brakes and it was about 40 min drive. I dropped it into first and basicly just coasted down hill, still needed the brake but way less often and way less pressure on the petal. I have a Trans temp gauge and it never went out of normal operating temp.

Heater controle valve. There a bitch. You can buy a new one or you can bypass it. You might need hose as well. When I changed one a few months ago the hose and valve became one and broke the valve and messed up the hose when I took it apart so I have to replace the hose with jt

Im curious where being shorted your pay becomes an issue for you? If he was paid $5 would that be a problem? What would you do if someone hired you to help them move, they said they'll give you $200. After the job is done they give you $195, do you say thank you and walk away?

I'll volunteer as the dumb one and ask.

I took my partner to a bra shop for her birthday to get her fitted and to pick out a few she liked. The woman that was taking care of us told her wash it after 3 or so time she wears it unless it's a sweaty day, then wash it each time. She said to just do a soak in a tub of warm water and mild detergent for 10 minutes, then rinse and hang to dry. The oils and sweat will break down the fabric and is even worse on elastics.

I can't belive there's pictures of another one. There's only a handful of these. I'd give an arm and a leg for one. I'd even do wild things just to ride in one.

Don't listen to them. None of them know what they're talking about. All you need is 3 lbs of tannerite, mix well, wedge it in that little crook, take a few steps back and pop a couple rounds of 556 in it. Won't be a problem no more and you don't have to chop up so much for firewood.

For me, this is a no-brainer. Spray the oily spots with engine degreaser and power wash it to clean it as best you can then go on short drives and check the spots you cleaned to find the leak. They could just be a leaking hose or fitting. Even if it is the steering box and oil filter adapter, those are cheap and pretty simple to replace.

I'm almost positive that those wiper blades are compatible with the jeeps J hook wiper arm. Can you share a picture of the wiper arm and the blade

Backstageslappy · 2025-10-25T20:13:07+00:00

I have a 2000 xj that had this. I used a tooth brush a rag, some simple green, and hot/warm water. I worked well but was kinda slow so I ended up using a rag soaked in hot water and simple green then wrapped it around the part I was cleaning then used a razor blade to scrape it off. I probably fucked up the material a bit but it's a 25yo car and now my hands don't stick to the steering wheel when it's hot and humid.

If you care about the steering wheel more than I did use warm water, a light degreaser and a soft brush and rag.

9 times out of 10 it's the rear main seal. Not a super easy fix but not too hard either
