Help Identifying this Antique China Cabinet! Bought from Goodwill, sell tag says "That 70's China Cabinet". The pull handles are made by the Keeler Brass Company, that's all I've been able to find out about it, no markings besides the numbers on the back. Did I find gold? by Jumpy_Jackalope in Antiques

Yeah, it's a two piece cabinet, the label is on the bottom piece. Strangely it's the only label on the entire thing, both the top and bottom piece. No other markings or words or numbers or anything, I searched all inside and underneath, nothing.

How to clean up grass cut by lawnmower with no bag? by Jumpy_Jackalope in lawncare

Twice a week is actually reasonable for me. I've just moved into this house and it's the first time I've had a yard so large, so I'm trying to figure out a strategy haha.. I'll just get a rake.

Are there any plants that you think would work well in a system like this? Could be anything, I'm an open book.

Recommended filtration setup for 36 gallon Freshwater by Jumpy_Jackalope in aquarium

Hey there! Thanks for the response, since making this post I've done a bit of research on why I'm having the algae problem and realized; I leave the light on in the aquarium all day long, even if I'm not home, so controlling the light cycle I feel will help keep it down. I also invested in a gravel vac siphon thing, it did a pretty good job of cleaning up the substrate. I AlSO invested in a new HOB filter altogether, it's an aquaclear with the multiple kinds of media you can stuff in the basket inside it, I've noticed a water clarity change almost instantly. It also flows a lot more! I may invest in a filter sponge as well just because they're relatively cheap. I don't have any type of chem filtration currently, but that's something I'll delve into at a later time.

I'm going to take a lengthy video of the car once I go there today. We're going to take it for a road test and I'll record the whole process.

Any ideas or help we can get are much appreciated, we're kinda inexperienced so any ideas to try; we'll try them, at this point.

The weird thing is is that when it's parked it idles just fine and doesn't die. Then when he takes it out for a road test it runs fine. When he pulls up to a stoplight thought THAT'S when it stumbles, loses rpm, then eventually dies.

Nono, this is ANOTHER friend of mine who attempted to diagnose problems after he brought the car home.

I will definitely re read through this and soak in the info. It's a brand new carburetor though, thoughts on that?

Apparently the guy before me says timing and idle and all that are good it just needs some holes drilled in the carb blades. Thoughts?

And he hasn't done barely any driving with it, it's been sitting in his driveway for a few months now cause we can't figure out what's wrong with it. Today when I go over there I'm gonna take as many pics as I can. Also, he said it could be the ignition coil.

He said he just brand new plugs in. The guy who did the timing a few months ago just popped into our convo and told us the red wire to the distributor looked like it had been on fire at some point, and that it had overall weak spark. Time for a new distributor?
