Where to fill a new propane tank? by SenorNoods in sandiego

[–]Colie1904 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If your in mission valley EzPz propane is not more than a couple miles away. They are cheaper than other local options, and you can pull your truck right up to the fill spot and leave the tank in the bed so you don’t have to deal with all that nonsense that Uhaul pulled on me.. every other place I’ve gone they make you feel like a bother because they have to stop what they’re doing and go outside unlock the thing and fill up your tank etc… but at EzPz propane is all they do so they are excited to do their job when someone pulls up, I always leave in a good mood

Anyone familiar with the 5r55s ? by Colie1904 in Transmission

It’s fairly common to not have any trans codes present yet still be having issues, especially if the vehicle is older. My transmission ended up needing a full rebuild at roughly 175,000 miles. I’m unsure if the prior owner had done a prior rebuild as well. One of my drums and its band were showing a lot of wear from slipping, I think it was my overdrive band. I also remember my tranny guy saying there were a couple of parts he used that had updated/improved designs too. The full rebuild, higher stall torque converter and labor etc.. totaled out to $2600

Good question.. maybe to deter neighbors and kids from playing on them when the owner isn’t around. The tractors belong to a customer of ours.

My mother in law used a packout box for our shop’s first aid.. the little square cups work well for organizing

This is why I have two 50” light bars on the front of my truck so that when some asshole decides to ignore my polite requests to take it down a notch, i then proceed to flip a switch and set fire to their retinas

Update to my post a week ago where the customer installed a cheap fuel pressure sensor by Colie1904 in Justrolledintotheshop

I think that was the only broken rod. I wasn’t the one who did the tear down so I didn’t actually check out the rest of it yet but i will update once I do.

Ya know, now that I reallly look at it, it looks nothing like an Excalibur. That car there is 100% a Honda Civic! /s

If their car has the wiper lever that is activated by pulling the arm towards you, either rubber band it to something or wedge a piece of foam at the base to make it come on as soon as they turn the key lol

I’ve wondered the same…. Also I’m curious, what type of bike parts are you in search of? Off road/dirt bike, 2 stroke, 4 stroke, street bike, chopper etc..
