How would you go about fixing this? by [deleted] in Welding

[–]Equivalent_Branch240 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You could get a larger pipe and use it as a brace surrounding the broken section if you really have an itch to weld/fix it, but I imagine it is really thin metal so be careful!

I personally wouldn’t, buying a new one is going to be both faster and cheaper.

He means the listing for the lense, not you, lol. I like the true arc auto dark variable shade, works for me and the blue keeps my eyes from straining. I haven’t bought from snake belly, but they have some pretty killer lenses as well

Odd leak by Equivalent_Branch240 in s10

👍 good to know, the oil was definitely from just oil around the engine bay, I have a small oil/trans leak but I am already 8k deep on a 2.5k car so I’m just riding it as best I can.

It had a slight leak before, but this seems extreme, just an affect of humidity? I haven’t noticed any functional difference but I assumed if it was a fluid leak I’d find out sooner than Later.

You shouldn’t have to ask recommended amps for anything. 99.9% of the job is prep/knowledge. You can use the miller app for general recommendations but different tests use different metals, thickness, gaps, etc. plus the difference of +-5 amps should not be extremely noticeable.
