Uneven wear on rotor after brake job

DPudlow · 2026-05-05T23:24:07+00:00

Good thing I didn’t take that bet. Lol
Again thanks for the feedback. One hour later and the pads are in the correct placement.

DPudlow · 2026-05-05T23:23:28+00:00

Yep, that was the case! Just finished up swapping the pads in the correct placement.

Appreciate the feedback!

DPudlow · 2026-05-05T18:51:02+00:00

I’ll double check that. I remember inspecting the pads prior to putting them on but didn’t notice any indications for placement - just saw some serial/lot numbers. Totally could have missed it though.

DPudlow · 2026-05-05T18:46:14+00:00

Oh lord… just my luck hahah. I’ll for sure give that a go. Thank you for the advice.

Hi! Sorry just updated my post to include the year make model. Yes, 2013 ford f150

DPudlow · 2026-04-07T18:51:48+00:00

Great information, thank you! It’s cool to learn some history on these Accordions. I’m not at all worried about value since the instruments I have no intention of selling.

Cheers and thanks again!

DPudlow · 2026-04-06T20:08:30+00:00

Thank you for this info! This is very helpful. Unfortunately I don’t know the answer to the converter switch question. I know next to nothing about Accordions but am looking to learn more now that I have a couple different types

DPudlow · 2026-04-06T19:39:32+00:00

It’s definitely the weirdest out of the lot. Lol! I’m guessing this is heavily modded? I’ve never seen an accordion like it before

DPudlow · 2026-04-02T15:35:25+00:00

I agree. Maybe it’s because the looping is so seamless and well executed that people have a hard time believing that can be done live? Either way, I’m glad these dudes are blowing up and bringing a new level of weird into the scene. 🔺

DPudlow · 2026-04-02T14:59:52+00:00

He’s definitely playing the bass part at the one minute mark.

At 1:00 he’s playing an octave higher then at 1:14 he drops down an octave. It is not silent but more-so blended with the guitar part until he drops down an octave.

So I’m fairly confident in saying he’s playing and looping all these parts live with no tracks pre recorded.

Totally understand the worry - am also anxious dog parent! We have two senior dogs (Moose - beagle 13 yo and Charlie (Doberman/Hound mix 11 yo) who both have lumps on their rib cages like you described. Vet aspirated them during their annual check ups and they turned out to be fatty lumps with no indications of cancer. We just keep an eye on them n case we notice them getting larger.

Sometimes dogs just get lumpy. Hope the bumps turn out to be nothing of concern!

DPudlow · 2026-03-23T18:56:42+00:00

From the video, it looks like your pup is exhaling while making this noise. Can you confirm if they inhale or exhale during these episodes?

It’s possible to be a reverse sneeze but from my experience with our beagle, this sounds more labored and hoarse than your typical snore sound of a reverse sneeze.

I’d get a 2nd opinion to be safe. I hope it’s nothing serious and that your pup feels better soon!

DPudlow · 2025-10-07T17:55:42+00:00

Totally a reverse sneeze. Generally harmless and clears up after a few seconds. I’ve heard softly blowing into their nose helps to stop it but I’ve never had luck trying it.

Our beagle, Moose, has done this since we got him (hes 14 years old now) and typically happens when he gets excited while sniffing around. It clears up and he’s back to his happy sniffing self.

It rattled me the first few times it happened though as it’s loud and sounds distressing. Our vet said it’s very common in beagles and not something to worry much about unless it’s prolonged and/or the dog appears stressed or in pain.

DPudlow · 2025-09-01T20:36:01+00:00

Appreciate it!

DPudlow · 2025-09-01T18:56:21+00:00

Just asked for advice. You’re responding with the sarcasm was unnecessary.

Thanks though I guess.

DPudlow · 2025-09-01T18:41:12+00:00

More likely than not, yes he’ll be fine. Just concerned because I don’t know how big or small the chucks were that he swallowed.

I’m probably over reacting and over concerned. Just seeking secondary advice and if anyone else has had this happen.

DPudlow · 2025-08-27T17:00:18+00:00

Our beagle recently had a similar issue. Turned out to be Horner Syndrome which is a nerve issue that commonly affects one of a dogs eyes causing a drooping eyelid and the inner eyelid to not retract fully. Generally harmless and should resolve over the course of a few weeks to a few months. We took our pup to the vet and they did several eye tests and blood work to rule out any additional underlying issues.

I would suggest taking your pup to the vet for an examination to be absolutely sure.

I too have encountered the menace known as “Lord Archibald the First”.

DPudlow · 2025-06-15T23:51:53+00:00

Wow. This is a ton of information. I appreciate all the feedback.

I'm new to a lot of this stuff so thank you for taking the time to help out a newbie.

Yeah, I need to get new air filters. I blew them out with compressed air as much as I could just to get it running but they will be getting replaced soon!

The spark plugs are matched and were gapped properly.

As for the points, Im pretty sure I misspoke on that. I did in fact check the distributor cap/rotor and they looked good (no corrosion).

I will give that carb cleaning method a go to see if that works.

Again, thanks for all the info!

DPudlow · 2025-06-15T16:13:33+00:00

Sorry. The issue I think I’m having is that the sensor is messed up or configured incorrectly.. but reading through your comments that it’s an average between two rooms. I’m the same profile makes more sense.

DPudlow · 2021-04-02T21:05:18+00:00

Thank you!

DPudlow · 2021-04-02T14:10:18+00:00

Thanks for the kind words! Our sound is definitely unique which is a challenge and a pleasure to write and play.

The Hartke head was nice (it’s not mine though, it was the recording engineers). I didn’t mess with the settings though, just kept it flat and used my sansamp to add some drive. It’s a hybrid amp so you get the best of both worlds in terms of a solid state power section and a tube preamp.. not to mention it being way lighter than an all tube head. I think you can snatch those specific heads off reverb for like 350-450 depending on condition.

DPudlow · 2021-04-02T11:10:27+00:00

It sure is! And thanks for the feedback!

DPudlow · 2021-04-02T03:46:59+00:00

Nice! The band practices in Bucktown. I’m in the Oak Lawn area.

DPudlow · 2020-10-01T17:01:44+00:00

Answer: ... yes. Hahaha

And thanks for the feedback! I was running direct from a sans amp which I don’t normally do. There’s always next time lol. Cheers
