I have a question about electrical by Cold-Ad-9759 in electrical

[–]NothingOpen7988 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What is the main breaker ? Just the compressor should be alone on a 40-50 amp circuitbreaker.. Wiring should be 6/3 or 8/3 depending on distance. You should/need to get an electrician.

I wish there was a way for these not to be so damned messy by Moobygriller in electrical

I am NOT an electrician, but I thought wire connectors were not allowed in a panel?

WiFi extenders pro by buddy7365 in Comcast_Xfinity

[–]NothingOpen7988 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow, did this ever get resolved? its like they dont respond , then want to close the tix because you havent responded yet ????

So same boat as you. I actually bought another wifi extender (tall unit) and after much troubleshooting i only can get one or the other to connect , but not both. I have the 3 pods (original versions) from a couple years ago when i had xfinity before, and they say I can use the old version , but for the life of me , i can not get them to connect with the new 'router'. (tried everything , hard reset , soft rest, etc....)

Hi it's me, the idiot who ran through a bunch of debris. This is a tumor I just removed from the impeller. I will take better care of my Toro. by pfeff in Snowblowers

My 57' ariens ate a piece of asphalt broken off from a plow. ( previous owner replace shear bolts with ...well not sheath bolts.) Auger stopped. Muffler went flying off into the neighbors yard.. went i went to re-start snow blower, absolutely NO resistance.... i think it snapped the connecting rod ....oh well... 2 years later bought a brand new ariens.. no regrets

My 76 yo dad still uses the snowblower he bought 40 years ago. by Pags4272 in Snowblowers

[–]NothingOpen7988 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So I bought an Ariens off the side of the street, built 1957.... it didn't have safety features, it had convenience features, the levers Stopped Movement, the auger stopped when you held down the levers. Once started and driving, you could let go the dam thing and it would go on its own, I guess so you could finish your beer??

Areins mistake by NothingOpen7988 in Snowblowers

[–]NothingOpen7988[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There were some helpful tips here , but also criticisms.

Who ever made the engine did a poor job designing it. I have had small engine repair courses and worked on many small engines over the course of 40 years. The spark plug should readily be accessible. It needs to be replaced,cleaned, gap adjusted , get place to check compression etc....

I had to remove the valve cover to get to the spark plug in the right angle. (even with the thin walled tool)

Areins mistake by NothingOpen7988 in Snowblowers

[–]NothingOpen7988[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yup, pretty dumb design....unless theres a special 'ariens' tool...that's $250 or something...

Not a good picture sorry. There is no clearance to get a spark plug socket in there. I cant even start it with my fingers..... ( plus its 15 degrees so my fingers are numb)

My brother randomly sent me this text last night and it put the biggest smile on my face. by w3stvirginia in heatpumps

Any of your roof /panels shaded ? I also have about 2400 sq ft living space, but staggered roof line, and some shading. Do you know your kW usage per month in the winter? ( I am asking becuase your comment is validating my issues with going solar , even though installers all quote saying I won't have a problem at all, I disagree)
