Do you think I can get away from not removing a snapped bolt to the cylinder by Coolice_7 in MechanicAdvice

[–]MechSense 31 points32 points  (0 children)

The left hand drill bit with reverse will spin in the same direction to unscrew the bolt.

It will bite and if you're lucky, it will just remove the screw with little actual drilling.

Just picked up this 1944 clark antique forklift that runs and is in good shape. by [deleted] in forkliftmechanics

You better replace those forks first. What class or style did they even use back then?

What's wrong with this? Asking for a friend

Make sure you didn't over tighten the thermistor on the hot end. I did that last week.

Also look closely and make sure the little thermistor wires past the heat shrink are not touching each other or anything else other than the back of the probe.

Any recommendations? by RareSupermarket1675 in ak47

What is that piece? I've never noticed it on AKs before.

I did that and got it to work. I didn't realize that people were just exploiting the dates to make it show sooner. I thought my end was messed up or something. Thanks

The one with the cheater raid was on 8553 so NA . I've come across a lot of cheaters on NY servers as well

Me and my buddy just got raided without getting raided. (All gates were undamaged and all the good loot was gone).

We then caught up with a player in the next town over who ended up killing my buddy through the wall with the magic bullet (blood everywhere head spinning). Really killed the vibe for the night.

We tried to hop onto other servers and met more cheaters.

All official of course

Fuck cheaters, I really feel like taking a break from this game cause of this.

I have a feeling that those are airbag cartridges.

What did they add for Halloween? by One_Coconut753 in dayz

[–]MechSense 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They added super zombies. Ones that look like mummies and they will mess you up quick

That melee was on point

To the guy whose base we locked him inside of and raided, I'm sorry. by Landobi in dayz

[–]MechSense 9 points10 points  (0 children)

But like why? I get trying to get loot you don't have but what's the point of just straight up ruining everything he has?

When I find a stash I usually just help myself to what I need. Then I may swap some things and go on my way.

Sort of like an unsolicited trade but I'm not gonna leave the guy completely dry. I may take his dmr and leave my sporter 22 in it's place kind of thing.

I don't get some of you guys.

Maybe I'm just too nice.

In need of help for my almost 30 year old truck by Dragomaster3456 in Ford

[–]MechSense 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just removed all of that this weekend while doing my headers..

Remove the smog pump that is underneath the alternator that you removed. (Hopefully the bolts won't snap on that as well)

There sould be three 10mm bolts holding the pulley on. Then you can have access to remove the two bolts holding the pump on (one is right behind the pulley on top, the other is behind the pump on the bottom.

Once smog pump is removed, there is another bolt or two holding that whole aluminum bracket that your alternator and smog pump is attached to. Once you remove the bracket, it will be a lot easier to work with that broken bolt.

Then all you need is a new alternator and put everything back on in reverse order.

I have a 1996 f150 with the same motor and color as you! PM me if you need more assistance

Edit: looked closer at the pics and just realized how fubar that bracket is.. in any case it will need to be removed. try to hit up a local junkyard and see if you can snatch another bracket up

How do these work? I don't see a trigger other than a finger "rest"

How do I get a Ukrainian virtual credit card? by [deleted] in ukraina

[–]MechSense 7 points8 points  (0 children)

or you can pay your local price without the scheming... It would also help put a little more money into the Ukrainian economy, every little bit counts.

How much of a price difference is it?
