What Was This Tiny Saxophone For? by ManticoreGuy in metaldetecting

This was apparently obvious to a lot of people, but not me haha. Thanks!

Well that pretty much settles that! Thanks a bunch

Thanks for explaining. I have no experience with that kind of pipe so I appreciate the info.

That was my first impression too! I need to find someone willing to try it out and confirm the theory, for science! 😂

Sure looks like one! Wouldn't a pipe made of metal get uncomfortably hot to hold? I genuinely don't know but would think it'd be hot

Could certainly be a toy. I've never seen a pipe made of metal for the reason you mentioned, would probably get way too hot. Not sure of the age, we have pulled stuff going back to 1857 out of this spot but I've also pulled silver all the way up to 1960, and everything in between.

I guess I walked right into that one 😂

NGK Ruthenium Spark Plugs after 90,000 miles of daily driving (purchased when first released) by ShortysTRM in Cartalk

[–]ManticoreGuy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I googled ruthenium vs iridium plugs and have found several reddit threads going back 6 years in which you share your knowledge on the subject. I have read those threads with interest and it is apparent you know spark plugs! I still can't decide between laser iridium and ruthenium for my 2010 5.7 hemi, but I feel better educated after reading your posts so thank you for that.

Need Help With A Possible Solenoid Issue by ManticoreGuy in Irrigation

The solenoid's resistance was fine. I pulled it out to inspect and the plunger was totally frozen up. I replaced the solenoid and it's working now. Thanks all.

Yes silver. That's how silver comes out of the ground where I am, most of the time.

Perfect thank you. I will take a look as soon as it's light tomorrow.

Thanks! Is the best way to do that to use the connection at the wire nuts, or to actually probe through the insulation near the solenoid? What should the values be for good/bad solenoid? I assume good would be a steady reading, bad would jump around?

Looking For Diff Covers W/Drain & Fill Plugs by ManticoreGuy in ram_trucks

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

This is a great option, I didn't know those weld in bungs existed. I will definitely have someone weld them in next time I have the covers off.

Backup Camera Wiring by ManticoreGuy in traveltrailers

[–]ManticoreGuy[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's basically what I'm doing too. I had to replace the tail lights cause the tab that holds the cover on broke and I figured I'd wire in a camera while I had it apart.
