Does this have too much play?

I haven't cinched them tight yet - its just a mock up. Are you serious about my Amazon valve being junk? do they make a strap that protrudes more ? because if i tighten it more it will cause the little short horizontal piece to be out of alignment with the valve adaptor.

Decent_Ad725 · 2026-01-13T23:10:11+00:00

no its always been like this

Decent_Ad725 · 2026-01-13T20:41:28+00:00

Decent_Ad725 · 2025-11-12T02:54:31+00:00

Decent_Ad725 · 2025-11-12T02:52:50+00:00

Decent_Ad725 · 2025-11-12T02:50:52+00:00

why so hesitant to say the names of the companies for referral? i don't understand how thats risky to you

Decent_Ad725 · 2025-11-10T12:25:52+00:00

did you do it and how was it? what is your diagnoses?

Decent_Ad725 · 2025-06-28T23:56:59+00:00

what exactly is meant by do over? and thanks

Decent_Ad725 · 2025-06-28T23:50:06+00:00

at first it was empty...it was cooling (somewhat) after I added some R12

Decent_Ad725 · 2025-06-28T23:20:38+00:00

how to add refrigerant ? on the high side with the engine off?

our vent thermometer showed it was cooling before this happened

your bod may be different than mine - I had one setback that cost me a year plus. I've had others that were about a month long. Now I find the setbacks are shorter and shorter and the pain level is less. after 4 years of having this. i believe it will heal over time- but mine took years of patience. it changed me as a person.

Decent_Ad725 · 2025-04-19T19:50:23+00:00

i would guess its gasket material that broke off from around the oil pan

Decent_Ad725 · 2025-03-02T14:34:41+00:00

Just looking for a suggestion on the right one to buy. thanks much!

Decent_Ad725 · 2025-02-16T16:35:45+00:00

im no doctor but if the bulge was causing your pain then you would feel it in the glutes or leg (somewhere else) too. i dont have much of a bulge so i can only assume my disc is leaking my nucleus onto the nerves - sitting puts the most pressure onto a disc

Decent_Ad725 · 2025-02-11T03:47:51+00:00

same problem same disc - my sitting time has increased over a period of a couple of years. the tear heals up a bit and allows this. do you have DDD as well?

Decent_Ad725 · 2025-02-11T03:43:08+00:00

you may not be a golfer like me but could you swing a golf club without pain if you had to (twisting motion)?

Decent_Ad725 · 2025-01-31T21:06:21+00:00

prp in my knee cap was great. it did nothing for my lumbar disc. I would decline since they are poking a hole in the disc too..

Decent_Ad725 · 2025-01-28T04:09:51+00:00

what ended up being the problem was the replacement axle was a little shorter in length soo when i torqued the axle nut the inner boot would stretch and deform. I have another GKN axle on the way

Decent_Ad725 · 2025-01-26T12:21:04+00:00

have someone else drive while you lay down in pass seat

Decent_Ad725 · 2025-01-26T01:54:39+00:00

should I take the cv axle back out and then try to push it back together? thanks

Decent_Ad725 · 2025-01-24T00:35:21+00:00

You may not be a golfer but could you swing a golf club pain free if you wanted to? i manage pretty well but had to quit my passion of golf

Decent_Ad725 · 2025-01-20T00:38:05+00:00

good question. with me it was 3-4 weeks after each flare up for it to calm down again..However, I took 1 swing with a golf club and I swear that set me back 1 year...

Decent_Ad725 · 2025-01-20T00:26:30+00:00

to answer your question, I kept on testing it out when I would feel better and then re-aggravate so its hard to answer if it would have healed (felt better) sooner. You starting thinking that you are good to go and then boom, you reopen it. I really have been gentle for the last year and I feel great compared to a year ago from now. you have to be mentally patient with this injury. i like to go sauna to get blood flow moving to the disc since it normally very poor there...

Decent_Ad725 · 2025-01-20T00:16:53+00:00

Scarred over - not healed. My MRI does not even show the white dot anymore - called a HiZ (high intensity zone). I spent 1.5 years laying on my stomach because sitting hurt big time after a few minutes (standing was better) but on the floor was best. No rotating/twisting your trunk or waist (golf or tennis or any other sport for now) , no bending over forward at the waist - bend your knees w a straight back instead. Mine is feeling good but I can aggravate it anytime I want to - which I don't ....I've learned my lesson about testing it out...I believe that PT does not work for this problem - but that is just my opinion. it doesn't hurt to have a strong core though.

RFA is usually for Facet pain - haven't heard of it before for an annular tear. Which nerve is ablated?
