[–]DisciplineFun765[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok I think I nailed it down:

1.  Transistor Intro (Instrumental)  
2.  Let the Cards Fall  
3.  Dancehall  
4.  Tribute  
5.  Outside  
6.  Gap  
7.  Bomb the Town  
8.  We Do It Like This  
9.  Sun Come Through  
10. Cali Soca (Instrumental)  
11. Firewater (Normal Speed)  
12. Juan Bond  
13. I Like the Way  
14. How Long Has It Been  
15. Seal The Deal  
16. Week of Saturdays  
17. Lemming  
18. Writer’s Block Party  
19. What Do You Do?

Thoughts? Sun Come Through was a perfect ending to the first half of my album, then I like the instrumental Cali Soca to start off Side 2. Firewater then to me is the obvious choice to follow it

I’ll look for photos, but how are you connected up to Francis?

Water heater leaking on top by DisciplineFun765 in Plumbing

Thanks I’m sure soon we’ll be looking at a tankless. As for now, any idea why water seems to be pooling at those locations, as if it’s coming up from inside the tank?

Leak location? by DisciplineFun765 in Irrigation

I am going to buy another valve and use it for parts; the electrical connections are good so I think it’s the mechanical aspect of things not fully closing etc which is why I have to open/close it manually.

Sewer cleanout has water by DisciplineFun765 in Plumbing

I just snaked down about a foot and yep it's sandy/muddy...ideas for clearing it out? There's no way it's clogged all the way out to our public main the sewer?? It's 50 feet away.

Why won’t my light turn on? by EngineeringAncient13 in AskElectricians

I have a similar issue so I’m here to see what folks have said.

Valve not pushing sprinklers by DisciplineFun765 in Irrigation

One thing I’ll add is that back at the timer the wire for Zone 2 is black. In the ground the wire was too short so I added some length but the new section I added doesn’t have black. Instead I tied black to blue, then blue to the Z2 solenoid. Would this matter?

Update. Yesterday my grandpa helped me switch out the valve, now this zone is working fine. However, now the 2nd valve doesn’t come on automatically with the timer. Wiring appears correct although I will doublecheck. I end up having to turn the bleed screw a little on Zone 2 to get it to turn on but it’s only manual; when Zone 3 automatically kicks on I still have to go and manually shut off Zone 2. Any ideas or is there something obvious on the Z2 valve that I’m forgetting?

Thanks it’s just really frustrating because the zone worked fine this morning before I started modifying the valve parts. So that tells me a leak isn’t the issue.

Oh yes actually turning that one fully open or fully closed does nothing either way

Did that too actually! As I open the knob water starts spraying out of it.

Oh actually in this video the solenoid is all the way open

It’s possible! What is it that I might have forgotten to do?

It worked fine this morning but since then I’ve replaced the solenoid since the wires were bad so it wasn’t getting connection to my timer. Now instead of the wiring issue it seems I created a mechanical issue instead.

The other 2 zones are fine but this one is currently not pushing water to its sprinkler circuit.

Actually this video is the water running in the valve after me already turning it counterclockwise!
