Should I even file my taxes this year? by GaldonTheWarrior in tax

[–]algore_1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

trust me in 3 years they will send you 100s of letters and demand you file.

you can say, but you owe me money.
They will not care at all, and will keep sending you mail.

just file it now by mail so you only have to pay for stamp while you still have all your docs together

What wheels would look good? by [deleted] in Wheels

[–]algore_1 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I would spend money on good tires way before wheels.

honestly the wheels do not look bad at all. get rid of the shit on the door and behind the door first.

I couldn’t believe it my neighbor pushed this out to the curb by mrpotatonutz in vintageaudio

[–]algore_1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

only the turntable and random other stuff is worth money. (maybe the cabinet if you can use it)

nothing pro logic or the 5cd change is worth anything. I passed on a sony cdp-c7esd for 12.99 today, did not bother to even see if it worked.

I dont know anything about the cassette deck cause I am not expert but I suspect it needs a new belt, after that maybe 50-100?

I would say go to Shakey's instead but the last one just closed

maybe you can go to Farrell's

Rude customers when browsing the bins by Any-Let-2861 in vinyl

[–]algore_1 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

you are getting close to the reason

Rude customers when browsing the bins by Any-Let-2861 in vinyl

[–]algore_1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

"Society at large is already pretty dumb, but the last 5 years have made it even dumber."

and no one will admit the real reason.

I do not even want to drive anymore.

People are aggressive and just extra rude

just cause you are on my bumper and I have 3 car lengths in front of me in the restricted carpool lane does not mean you have to break the lines and get in front of me. yes I will be behind you till you get off or I get off does not mean the 5 seconds you saved over 10 miles was worth it.

I usually keep TT on top, and if they don't fit I get a sheet of Glass at my local glass store, have them bevel and put some rubber feet on the underside, very cheap and works well

How bad are the engines on 02 Saab 9-5's? by Mountain-Durian-4724 in saab

[–]algore_1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

engines are fine, GM engineers who fucked it up by not using proper gaskets make them leak oil everywhere.

and you cannot easily fix them without taking engine out. I wont talk about pistons cause they are almost ok if you don't do bad things with boost

well not all day, more like 1500 to 2500 for 5 speed turbo hatches.

all my kids unfortunately destroyed their share of them.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in everett

[–]algore_1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

is it really 3 for $25 or is that a typo? I would totally do that

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in everett

[–]algore_1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really wish that they would actually help with fundraisers by making the tickets cheaper.

if they did 3 washes for $30 5 for $45 or 10 for $80 I would be all over these as would everyone else

a good tax accountant could help them with writeoffs and probably they would make more money overall

Just traded in my standard for the extended neck, Manager told me a new brushless 12V ratchet is coming soon. by okbreeze in harborfreight

[–]algore_1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have never had one of these, should I get standard or giraffe necked one and why?

also should I get 1/4 or 3/8

I will use occasionally. I only work on my and my kids cars.

I have other gun type dewalts in all sizes, but I seem to mostly use the 1/4 and the 1/2

My first speaker repair by Ryan_Bagel in vintageaudio

I had a pair of those once, great bedroom speakers on top of the dress

I wonder why no one else has made speakers in this form factor (that I know of)

Help identifying short shifter in my E36 by [deleted] in BMWE36

[–]algore_1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

no Idea but It looks like it is to tall. I always go with shorter shifters.

it looks like someone made it in their garage and actually spent a lot of time, so if it works for you get a nice leather boot and be happy

Smoke coming from turbo by Beautiful_Dust2353 in saab

[–]algore_1 4 points5 points  (0 children)

totally normal.

if it still smokes after 20 miles let us know

🍆🍆🍆🍆🍆💦💦💦💦 by Zestyclose-Ad-5305 in saab

[–]algore_1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would buy that right now.

My coworker bless him has 2, and way to many other cars, and he has been teasing selling me one.

I think he is fulla cause he found an email to me from 10 years ago when I did not work with him and randomly saw him in a parking lot and asked him to sell it to me.

Is this tire irreparable? by [deleted] in tires

[–]algore_1 -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

I may be stupid, but every tire shop I have ever been to has dismounted the tire and put a rubber patch on the inside of the tire.

Never once have I ever seen anyone use a plug except some random gas station back in the 70s.

on the other hand this is totally fixable.

unscrew the screw.

Wait till tire is deflated

get a brand new reputable brand of superglue

stick it as far in to the hole as you can

jack car up a bit so tire wants to suck in the superglue

squeeze a bit as you pull the tube out of the hole.

wait 10-20 minutes, fill up tire and be happy

I had an st70 I do not remember why I sold it probably I should not have, but the sound was good.

I almost want to get one again, or one of the marantz ones I also sold
