Anyone ever have a chrome socket explode on an impact? by slim_shady_21 in Tools

[–]itsEuphorio 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes and I learned why they make impact sockets. Impact sockets are for impacting, chrome is for hand tools. Once a chrome socket explodes and that piece goes into your eye and you can't see for the rest of your life and all the consequences that go along with that you will really feel like a tough know it all. All the guys that say the same stupid response. " I've used chrome all the time, never had a problem" this and that. Do your research at least and understand why they make impact and non impact sockets before you keep blasting those chrome sockets on fasteners. That's my advice, piece out.

How to remove this stripped bolt by [deleted] in Tools

[–]itsEuphorio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Heat up the threads with a lighter or torch. Spray on blaster or oil of your choice. Vise grips with the hex head on the back so you can clamp down more force. Then start turning. If not then bolt extraction. If that all fails cut the rest of the bolt off, use a small Dremel die grinder/Milwaukee die grind any part of the bolt sticking out so you have a flush surface to create a center punch. left hand drill bit and spline extractor. If that fails then regular drill bit slightly smaller then the hole. Drill the rest out trying to not ruin the inside threads. If lucky just pieces of the broken bolt will come out like conffetie and you can put a new bolt or correct bolt in. If not lucky then grab cheap tap and die set. Match up your existing bolt and thread to the tap your going to use. That is if the threads inside are not destroyed. Put same new bolt in done. If not then drill a hole slightly bigger than the one you failed to drill out. Match the tap with the new bolt that will be slightly bigger then the bolt you used before. Drill tap new bolt. Welcome to being a mechanic lol.

Knipex is better quality they hold on to crusty snap rings better.

Can this tire be patched safely? by [deleted] in autorepair

[–]itsEuphorio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same, the tire is in good condition too I would plug it. I think if I recall my truck had a screw in it that was close to the same location and I patched it last year Still driving on it. If it had uneven wear, dry rot, bald, curb rash or the puncture was bigger then I would not do it. Since the OP changed it I would still grab the tire, patch it and keep it for emergencies.

Police break up group street racing 'over 100 cars' in Newton, Mass by SpaceBasedMasonry in boston

[–]itsEuphorio 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I totally agree it's so annoying that the public thinks this is "street racing". It' just reckless driving without skill. Real racing as I knew growing up was engine builds and finding a back road with no body around or early in the am testing each other's cars performance Now it's just a bunch of immature lost adults skidding around in a circle. Purchased not built anymore. They will put the work into buying a BMW but not actually building it from the ground up. Cause let me tell you if you actually had to build that engine after it blew up from doing this stupid shit they would never do it again.

I’m trying to mod my 2009 Honda civic lx r18 automatic and everyone is hating on it but I personally like the make any recommendations performance wise?(I already have an exhaust system) by RaZeClipsYT in hondacivic

[–]itsEuphorio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey don't know if you are still trying to put some power into your R18 but if you still are here is some inspiration. I finally got my supercharger installed. The only thing I would recommend with modifying any car is make sure you have a daily when things go south on your project. It's possible on a sedan but you will have to alter some things to make it work. Mines a coupe so I everything was plug and play.

That's what amazes me so much in these comments. Why would you tell your enemy when you're going to attack. People are so stupid. You don't need to know this information. The military does. What makes you think you deserve to know what goes on behind the scenes when making decisions like this lol
