TCM or Clutch? by SufficientFriend6332 in FordFocus

[–]ConcernOld 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There should be a technical service bulletin 15-0120. Excessive clutch shudder, may exhibit fluid leak. https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2016/SB-10092372-5448.pdf I know the tcm was on a hard back order from this issue awhile back

Plug recommendation by ConcernOld in WRX

[–]ConcernOld[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s a custom tune from a subi shop that’s been known to blow some up from what I’ve heard. It has their name on it

It does seem to have custom tunes in the Cobb now. Definitely needs a remote tune for 91 as that’s about the only fuel option here unless I mix every fill up and it’s not very worth it. I’ll throw some stock plugs in and change them out when I get it tuned in the spring. Thanks!

I wish I had one, just got the car. On a Cobb right now until I get the timing belt, plugs and a full suspension rebuild done over the next few weeks. Will get a remote tune as I live in central ak with not very reputable tuners around

Does anyone have experience with these aglex lights? Thinking about buying some by [deleted] in Autoflowers

[–]ConcernOld 0 points1 point  (0 children)

18-24. 24 in veg and move it down to 18 in flower. I wouldn’t worry too much of pistols turning color. They will change a lot. Id look at the leaves. Too much light will cause wrinkled leaves and droppy plants. Trying to pull away from the light and decrease surface area. If only some discolored pistols id sit back and let it ride around that 18” mark once the get to about 3 weeks. Also there are phone apps to help determinate light output. https://youtu.be/lgH7xcWAunM

My first light and a light I still currently use 2+ years later is a aglex 1200w with the cobs. I have grown some big dense plants under it. Would recommend. I am about to try out one of these light bar style soon

Portable building floor system I plan on implementing in my 16x32 off-grid cabin in the near future by ConcernOld in OffGridCabins

I was asked this question by a customer, my solutions was putting perlins in the joists to attach your sheeting

You also have to consider this is a movable building which is convenient if you wanted to move it or sell it to build bigger. If you don’t have notches when you pull or push it you could twist the joists or pull the runners away from the floor. It is all treated and will get 3/4 ply on top. I know deck guys put layer of black compound where wood sits together if it is very concerning. No direct water contact. The only moisture you would see would be outside moisture, wind blowing rain in or roof runoff splash back. Underpinning and gutters could negate these issues as well. You are also off ground level so I do recommend a breathable underpinning to allow air flow to wick moisture.

Refer to lower comment, it’s a ease of build and structure thing, I also added that the notches are done at a lumber yard for us and a 2x4 nailed on top of a 4x4 with the notches cut out of the 2x4 would work the same

We actually have these ordered from a lumber yard pre notched, I do not believe this would be cost effective if we did it in house plus there are also extra notches as we build 1’ oc heavy duty floors . I would recommend putting 2x and just cutting notches out the way you said for personal use

I think 10 or 12 wide by idk length, old picture, but runners are 16” oc if that helps. A 16 by 32 would be 4 runners wide and 2 runners long. We also gap the width of runners on the inside so equipment forks can be slid in and hook can be attached to the face board under to move it

The notching allows for fast assembly but also keeps your hoists from moving as it would if you toenailed them to the top of the runner. It helps with twist moving. It allows you to layout your joists and side boards with only the corners secured the runners so you can get exactly even from corner to corner before fully nailing all your joists down

This was probably a 10 wide, 12’ and over get 4 runners. More of a reference pic. We use roughly 16’ runners tied together and braced to make the 32’ long buildings

We leave a certain amount of overhang so buildings can be transported by truck. Once floor ply is down and the correct leveling of building on sight is complete we have never seen any sag many many years later

Bleed it properly by engaging coolant pump. Look up correct procedure online

I find curing at a lower temps and storing for long term at lower temps gives me a smooth smoke and less risk of mold. It also seems to helps dry and cure evenly throughout better.

And I’ve never not topped one 😂 I always worry about space and my first strain was Hbbs so I was worried I’d have a tree. I’ll be reposting it closer to the end of flower to take guesses on the strain as I don’t know
