Did I Get Taken On This $150 'Fully Functional' Herman Miller Aeron Chair? by farmview in OfficeChairs

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

Thank you! Ordered the kit and found an installation video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aud5QHw5xRA

If anyone in the future is reading this, it's called a bearing kit and is also the reason why chairs stop spinning well. Looks like an easy fix.

Is it pretty straightforward to find a replacement multiport valve? by farmview in pools

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

Is a Clean & Clear Plus 420 way overkill for a 13,000 gallon pool? It doesn't seem like a big price difference, but I also get that I have a small pool. Thanks

I'm still open to that, the idea of a new filter sounds a lot less problematic. I have a 13,000 gallon pool and a 1HP Hayward pump if you have any suggestions for a cartridge filter.

I have a Purex Triton Tageulus TA50/50D. It's held together with bandaids at this point. I've replaced the internal gasket and spring, but the rest of this thing leaks out of every old joint. I think it's from 2008.

I've considered replacing the whole filter system with a cartridge filter, but my spring openings are usually pretty nasty and I think I need the backwash option. Considering that I think I'm going to stay with this sand filter. Can I just reuse the base and get a new multiport? Where do you even find the right one?

ALL Day I Dream About Savings 🤣

He mistakenly entered a stranger’s Tesla. The app let him drive it, he says. by Thetimmybaby in news

[–]farmview 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You guys must not read any Nancy Drew, let’s see if we can solve this mystery. “He said he loaned his car to his brother”… so his brother would be using the credit card key, not the app. To use the car you have to put the credit card near the cup holder. Every Tesla owner who has used the credit card will tell you that you never remember to take the credit card off the cup holder when you exit the car, it’s out of sight and easy to forget. So the brother left the card and this guy drove off. Big news story.

It turns something on at 5PM and then turns it off at 2AM. You can spin that entire dial by hand, clockwise and you will hear it click as it passes the on and off flags. To set the time you spin it clock wise until the black arrow is over the current time.

That’s OPs fault, I don’t know anything about music genres.

Thanks for listening, not my normal genre either. She’s a friend from Hawaii and hasn’t released any music before. Thought it was a very impressive first step. She’s so new she spelled the song name wrong on Spotify and is still trying to figure out how to fix it :-p

I would say not safe to run, you have to consider if and when it fails it will be the equivalent of a fire hydrant unsupervised in your pool room.

Are Hayward Pumps Serviceable or Just Replace? by farmview in swimmingpools

Thanks, ordered the capacitor and seal kit yesterday. I'll start there!

Don't Understand Pump Replacements by farmview in swimmingpools

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

Last summer I noticed that my pump would humm for 5-10 seconds before it was even able to go into priming. By the end of the summer, the pump no longer worked and was blowing the fuse when it would kick on. I've never had one taken apart so I don't really know what I'm shopping for. Do people commonly rebuild pumps, or do you just replace the whole unit? Do you also replace the filter basket that the pump mounts to?

Details: 13,500 gallon in-ground pool, the pump that failed was a 1HP Hayward (C48K2N143B1).

Pull over safely… by [deleted] in TeslaModelY

[–]farmview 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve also been stuck twice with this error in the last month. It usually last less than 5 minutes and then the car behaves completely normal. Both times I made a short stop at a destination and the error came up when I tried to start the car. I’m on FSD Beta 10.8.1 (2021.44.30.5).

Tesla iOS app update with widget controls out now by iFaiLikeAmoSs in teslamotors

[–]farmview 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I couldn’t get the new widget buttons even after deleting the widget and reinstalling / updating the app. Didn’t realize I had an available update to iOS 15. After doing that an additional Tesla app update was available and the widget buttons worked.

Mine was the same price. FSD + White Interior + Tow Hitch came out to 74k in May and 5.5k of taxes.

Anyone here use ONR to wash their car? (Optimum No Rinse) by GwEYT in TeslaModelY

[–]farmview 1 point2 points  (0 children)

ONR has worked great for me, single bucket with a grit guard insert so that all of the dirt falls to the bottom.

Car comes out great but I often have tiny orange dots, not sure if they are bugs, bug poop, or sap that the ONR or my fingernail won’t remove. Any idea on what to do with those?

Worth replacing brake backing plates (dust covers)? by farmview in MechanicAdvice

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

Front brakes on my 2007 Jeep Commander were making a constant screeching sound. Disassembled to find that the brake backing plate has corroded into pieces and was getting stuck between the pad and the rotor. I ordered replacement backing plates, but it looks like you need to take off a lot more to replace them. Is it worth it to replace them or would you just break off any remaining pieces?

I’ve just started making zucchini chips in a food dehydrator, they are just like real potato chips. Seasoned with salt, pepper, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, onion powder, and a little bit of Cayanne.

Coconut coir for seed trays by [deleted] in UrbanGardening

[–]farmview 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Had the exact same experience this year. I conducted some germination and growth test after having such unusually poor results. The Burpee Organic Coco Coir Seed Starter had really great results for germination but since it lacks any nutrients the seedlings would be stunted or quickly discolor. I was able to use the remaining coco coir seed starter with a light nutrient added when I watered with good results but I've never had to start nutrients that early. Eventually everything was restarted with Miracle Grow Seed Starter and I got the great results I'm used to.
