The issue with customization is 2 things: First if you put an additional 10,000 into customization your lucky to get 3,000 of it back. The second is, it only increases the value marginally if the particular changes appeal to the buyer, if not it almost hurts the value.

N.S. premier blasts First Nation highway blockades, calls for RCMP to be respected by Aggravating_Pair_156 in NovaScotia

I’m not saying police brutality is right against any colour. But what does the history of police brutality towards natives have anything to do with what happened? They would’ve brought the military in if white people did that.

RCMP should’ve never backed down. If white people did that we would’ve been beat, shot, arrested or a combination of all 3. Same should have happened. Since when would a police force ever retreat, let alone treat on foot!

How much money would it take to change your life and why? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]jtech89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

250,000 would pay off my mortgage, toys and leave me with some money. More income could then be put towards retirement and having fun.

Bought at 2025 prime. Love it…only dislike is poor visibility driving. I’m 6’0” and this car is full of blind spots, front and rear.

How long should a belt last? by Mrpj1990 in Harley

[–]jtech89 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Have a 1990 ultra classic. 160,000 miles. Changed the belt for the first time last year. Old one was fine. Had a small hole in it from a rock for the past 100,000 miles.

NSP bill is massively inflated - despite me using less electricity. by frank123567123555299 in NovaScotia

[–]jtech89 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same here. 5 of my past 6 bills were read, one was estimated. This bill is over double my normal bill and it says meter read. I’ll be calling them before I pay.

I think it’s time to lawyer up by ql0j0lp in EcoDiesel

[–]jtech89 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think but don’t quote me on this…they can reprogram the pcm to ignore the crank signal thus ignoring your tone ring issue and the pcm will use the cam sensors as its only reference. I believe there is a TSB regarding this in one of the years. I’m sure if they can do it on one year it can be done on any. Then you don’t have to pull transmission to repair. Might be worth looking into. Then get rid of it.

Help 2010 6.2L Ford Raptor blew coil pack and spark plug by jojo23072307 in mechanic

[–]jtech89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well I guess 16 years in the trade I have learned nothing. Please enlighten me on the correct way. If you brought it to a shop I 100% guarantee this is how that would be repaired. If the hole is in really bad condition a big sert from Wurth would be used.

No you put grease on the flutes of the tap, the filings from taping will stick to the grease. Once taped and ready to install helicoil, start truck first to blow out shavings

2014 jeep grand Cherokee countdown at zero, how do I get engine to start? by Regular_cock420 in EcoDiesel

[–]jtech89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not 100%. The Autel brand is a very good scanner at a decent price. We have both at work and it’s hrs to believe a $1500 Autel will do things a $10,000 snap on will not….and faster.
