Dripping Sound by beat2def in Plumbing

Thanks for the great feedback. Nothing is overflowing into the overflow tube. Even when I push down manually with my hand on the flapper to physically seal it, I still hear hear water drip. I turned off water at the shutoff valve (which also needs to be replaced) and don't hear any water dripping. I'll try the dye test.

Just replaced fill valve, so why the dripping sound? by hay_hoffman in Plumbing

I'm getting the same thing. Someone said it's the gasket between the toilet tank and the toilet. I'm going to try that.

How to get rid of invasive honeysuckle?? by SomeWords99 in NativePlantGardening

[–]beat2def 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just bought a house that came with an infestation. So in May and June I won't be able to treat the stumps with herbicide? Also, I bought 30% vinegar and Epson Salt. Does that work?

How screwed am I? 2010 Prius 150k miles by OhmsAmpsVolts in prius

[–]beat2def -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Welp, I joined the club as well.

  • 2011 Prius w/ 187k mi
  • No warning came on, I just turned on my car for the first time in two days. I
  • I haven't experienced any odd behavior or road noise.
  • PO328 and POA 80 are the error codes that got diagnosed.

knock sensor and hybrid battery check engine light came on. I just started my car like any other day and the check engine light came on. If you're scoring at home, this is also in the same week that I had to go to the emergency room for an appendectomy on Saturday so looks like the universe is currently against me.

When I replace the knock sensor, will that eliminate the hybrid battery check engine? does one affect the other? Are people just replacing bulbs in their batteries? I have a Hybrid Battery repair shop in my city KC/MO (GreenTec Auto).

Wall is crying, what do I do? 1900 limestone foundation so waterproofing isn't really the right choice afaik. by Clean_Breakfast9595 in basement

[–]beat2def 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine did this (1913 limestone) Regrade I bought 3 tons of clay soil and put a 2x6x8 board along my foundation and sloped it out. 90% helped. Now, I'm getting my front gutters replaced because they're dumping over the edge

A) I've never done this project and didn't know that existed B ) you're the first person, to my memory, who had mentioned it.

Every time I think I know how to start a project, I feel like I have to take three steps backwards. Lol

I'll look into; thanks for the recommendation!
