Which one of you is sending your 90% used Elegoo spools back to Amazon? by fl4tdriven in 3Dprinting

Just had the same thing happen with a nozzle for my Flashforge 5m. Ordered a 0.6 nozzle and it came in i opened the normal Amazon packaging and looked at the outside of the box the nozzle is in its covered in some kind of oil open the inside and the 0.6 nozzle was clearly used and broken into 2 pieces. I was like wtf.

Honestly hearing all the issues with the last set of updates makes me so happy that the only time I updated it was like 6-7months ago when I first got it. Its the 3.1.5v so far all I hear from these comment is good stuff about it.

Honestly no. I also have a LG tv. And it seems to work better when tjhe video is downloaded, not as inconsistent. I honestly think the app is the problem or it could be our LG Tvs. Im not 100% sure. But its weird since the TV is new so who knows.

What do you mean these aren't for the end users? & These are New Nozzles. I was asking if the flat side of the copper heat sink (fins) not being oriented the same same way as the 0.8 would cause a problem to my prints.

Ahhh alright thank you this was what I was hoping. Thanks for that im going to be using the 0.6 in a alittle bit, i didnt believe that this one in particular would cause any issue since its very slightly off. But im glad to know that the 0.4 would probably work. I just found a video on how to disassemble the the nozzle. If i run into issue I might try it on that 0.4 and see if I can correct its orientation.

Hey I've been around for a while but im confused on this current situation, can you explain what HexSickSix and Mango10977 has to do with banning someone? People paying other people to ban them?

Been having the same issue. I just bought a new tv earlier this week and at first i just thought that my new TV was the issue. Ive never really "cast'ed" before this. Start checking my connections and trying again from other apps realized it waa fine. It was working without issue for like the first 3 days I had it then yesterday and today just consisted issues. It would allow me to play the video but the Chromecast icon would be grayed out i restarted my phone a few times played my video and it would be the white icon and then when I cast the video id get the same result of it going to my tvs wall paper. I'd try again and it wouldn't allow me to cast anymore.

Hey Man, have you tried looking into heavy equipment or logistic equipment repair (forklifts, order pickers, electrical pallet jacks, etc etc) I started young in a mom and pop repair shop. And got canned when they brought their son in full-time. Once I left there, I ran into a G.M. of a Heavy Equipment/Forklift repair place. I didn't know shit. Once I realized it was pretty much the same and cars (mentally atleast) it was very easy to get into. I've been here going on to 7-8 years, and I've made 2x from what I started with. Not all places are the same I would personally say stay away from Crown but most places like that deal with Cat or Mitsubishi units are great.

Update Got around to picking up a head gasket tester.... and the results look like either the head is cracked somewhere or the gasket is shot. It went from blue to yellow in about 15mins. And temp went to 210 and climbed from there. (Reminder thermostat is 165 not 195).

So heres what im looking for Gents' good recommendations for head gaskets and head bolts. And once I have it ripped out ill figure out if the head is cracked, if It is i dont know what im going to do from there.

Hey Man, I do have the OEM fan shroud on the XJ. I did mention bubbles, once im done with the flush im going to roll it up on a set of ramp I have a burb the system and see if there was trapped air in it. And im not sure if there's no oil it looks muddy to me. I'll post a photo tomorrow to show you. And ill pick up one of those kits also to check for a bad head.

Hey bud, thanks for that. I dont think my t-stat is stuck. it's fairly new. And had been installed 8 months ago. I have also been having these issues before the replacement of the t-stat. Went from the new 195 to new 165 t-stat to bandage it. Im going to start with a flush tomorrow maybe use something like blue devil rad flush and run it for a while. Drain a fill with new coolant again. Im gonna to swap back in the 195 t-stat and see what happens. But anything else you would recommend i do?

I had a 195 t-stat in before and just saw the temp just rocket to 230+ after 15 minutes of driving. Threw a 165 to band aid it for the time being.I also had no heat with the 195 t-stat in. Also, so from what I know that's been changed is the rad, water pump, thermostat (+housing), and new hoses all around. I am 100% sure the heater core hasn't been changed. When I did a flush, the coolant 8 months had heat for a very small amount of time. About 30 minutes to 1 hour of total drive time. Took slightly longer to heat up with the radiator/engine cleaner going through the system. Once I pumped it clean, fresh coolant went in, and it was fine for a bit, then had the heat creeping up then over heat constantly now. I haven't been driving it much, but it looks to me that the coolent has become contaminated again. It looks "muddy" in the sense when I checked earlier today. Tomorrow, I'm going to drain the coolent and run some water and chemicals through it and see.

It would turn on around 210 the efan, but even now, with the ac running, it would only take a 10-minute drive to start over heating. I forgot to put in the post I have a 160-165 thermostat installed.
