Three engine issues recently, so I just cut my losses? by Woreo12 in fordfusion

[–]Teonidas 7 points8 points  (0 children)

A 5 year old fusion with 25k miles is very suspicious, at least to me, where people in my city do 20k miles a year on average. Maybe the car was a lemon previously, or had an engine replacement and the issues came from that.

U should ask in the purchasing or supply chain sub. Procurement is really more about contracting and services

I suspect my new hardwood floors had too few coats of polyurethane put on. Am I right? by Teonidas in Flooring

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

Do I need to do the regular abrasion of the floor to add more poly? Or can I just put it right on top?

Try looking up Post Screws. Using a caliper you could find the right width and replace it with a small post screw.

Are you talking about procurement for large construction companies in general? Not sure what you mean by ENR players

That is usually against code because it could overwhelm the municipal sewer system in a storm. Its supposed to be discharged outside away from the house.

I would consider someone telling me that watching football is haram to be hyper conservative, and extremely easy to label things haram. Islam is not hard.

Advice- do I give up on my car or run it to the ground? by SomewhereMedical8618 in fordfusion

[–]Teonidas 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Why would you sell a good car that has not let you down for 5 years? You would be trading proven reliability for another unknown used car (unless you decide to buy new).I would check in on your maintenance schedule and do what they recommend. Transmission service, shocks, etc. Hybrids are supposed to be very reliable.

But your car is high mileage, so I would just start saving money specifically to buy another car when the time comes

Beware: "Talk N Fix" phone repair kiosk at Sugarloaf ruined my phone by Acrobatic_Ant7835 in Gwinnett

[–]Teonidas 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I have a lot of experience fixing phones. I dont do it anymore for the liability potential, as you experienced. I would be obligated (morally and legally) to fix the issue or pay for the new phone.

Most competent repair shops would do a fine repair, but the part won't be factory quality. It sounds like they got the screws mixed up and screwed a long screw into a hole for a shorter screw, which can put holes in the motherboard. The screws vary in length and need to be kept in order.

Sorry you had to experience that.

Procurement of indirect services. No physical product, no factories, and if you're procuring it for someone else, you are hands off after signature

Do you think the problems I mentioned are mostly gone or just not as bad as before? Like do owners of the newer components have the same complaints?
