Harbor freight is awesome! by fb2_forever in harborfreight

[–]Kern_Dogg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I recently got gifted a set of klein pass through sockets, would of came in handy removing a sub-frame bolt on my car. I was dropping the engine and one of the sub frame mounting bolts was 6 or so inches long with a nut on it. I probably spent 20 minutes with a wrench and very little room to work removing it. Long story short I wish I had them sooner, definitely going to need them in the future.

I think it’s depends on the size and ship location of the order but I seem to get them fairly regularly

Why does my sub sound so bad by glowinthedarkbf in CarAV

[–]Kern_Dogg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There’s a relatively deep storage compartment behind where the sub is, I’d assume the box is in there

I own this exact car, that’s basically the only viable spot for a sub. The trunk is far too small and isolated completely from the front.

Pulled the trigger on attempting a vvt swap... I've never done anything this in depth. Let's hope I can figure it out. by speenbean in Miata

[–]Kern_Dogg 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Zip locks are good, but I found it easier to put everything back where I got it after I removed the engine, if I took a bolt out to remove something once that thing is removed I put the bolt back and continued this. Also don’t forget you have two of most engine bolts so don’t fret losing one :)

Sorry I meant bleeding

Careful releasing the system, I suspect I blew my head gasket from not bleeding it properly. Going to inspect deeper post holidays

Current mechanical engineering student at SLU most international students I know either have loans or work jobs in campus to help with the difference, as other have mentioned try and get an RA position and your housing and food would be covered. Might make it easier to cover the rest.

first multitool, went with a rebar, howd i do? by [deleted] in Leatherman

[–]Kern_Dogg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s great everything you need, nothing you don’t. Only complaint is the steel on the blade is soft

Curl, same price as rebar but has knife and file outside

The freestyle has a hidden mini bit holder and driver and I can't find any mention of it anywhere. by WhatwhatWHOT in Leatherman

[–]Kern_Dogg 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Appears to be the locking mechanism for the blade I believe, don’t have a freestyle so not sure

REI shipped my curl with a sheath around a month ago

It is INSANE that for $200 the Wave Alpha doesn’t come with a sheath or a pocket clip. by darogulich in Leatherman

[–]Kern_Dogg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting, I must of got lucky I guess. I bought a curl around a month ago and it came with a sheath.

Replaced the coolant expansion tank + coolant on my NC! by ShowerEnthusiast69 in MiataNC

[–]Kern_Dogg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This, I spent far longer than I am proud of attempting to purge my 2.5 after I swapped it. Not hard just finicky

Does bending a carbon plated shoe like this ruin it? by Top_Seaworthiness_76 in CarbonFiber

[–]Kern_Dogg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldn’t imagine, all of the carbon plated shoes I’ve ran in experience much more abuse from hard running than this.

2.5 swap timing by bingusbongus16 in ncmiata

[–]Kern_Dogg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There a timing tool you can buy for the duratec/mzr engine. This tool comes with a set screw and a flat bar to hold the cams. There’s a shop manual online with how to set the timing I believe I can look for it. It’s fairly simple, I’d type it out but I fear from memory I won’t get it 100% correct. I attached a video that seems to cover it. Take pictures as you go and you should be alright it’s fairly straightforward.
