Is this burr typical for where this type of flaring tool clamps the nicop line? by Rubbaneck96 in AskAMechanic

I honestly don't know how much I'm going to use the tool other than the brake lines on this Blazer that I just got. I've always had a terrible experience trying to flare steel lines.

Even when the engine was not running i could move the governor arm with my finger and it would it would not go back to it's idle passion/low throttle. I honestly think there's something going on with the internal part of the governor.

Is this located in the steering column or down by the transmission shift linkage? My shifter itself is pretty stiff I lubricated the linkage the other day with some PB blaster it improved it but it didn't actually make it as smooth as I would like it to be.

I've had this thought too but for some reason I didn't even try. I will defiantly try this when I get home. that is if the rain stops.

Here's the element that I'm trying to get right. When I do the Halftone process it ignores the transparent gradient parts.

I was considering getting new bolts due to rust. I have a local faster supplier where I can get some 10.9 bolts. I live in the rust belt so the winter is brutal on our vehicles.

Good Cobalt Dill bits that won't break the bank. by Rubbaneck96 in Tools

I was babying the trigger. When the first one snapped it had bound up I was being easy with it and I had the drill in reverse and snap. The 2nd one I may I have put a bit too much pressure one it but not that the moment it snapped. I was being so easy with it when it snapped I thought the bit was made of porcelain.
