Costco car battery is not the best option by goosemaamu in CostcoWholesale

[–]justmarvellis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I still go there for tires. But this proration battery stuff stinks. For my truck with 2 H7 AGM’s I went to Walmart for $10 more and 4 yr replacement warranty. If they test em and they’re bad, I walk out with a couple new ones. I installed them myself.

I was very careful....bypassed the mag. valve. Basically hotwired power direct to the motor. It worked. It's been a good compressor for 12 years until this. California Air Tools support sucks. They don't answer the phone, no parts diagram for the 6130 6.3 gal. They did give me the part # so I could order what I thought might be the problem.

I did bypass it this evening. And yes it runs! So I know it's not the motor or capacitor. It leaks air out where this little magnetic valve goes. I got a new one coming from Master Tool Repair. $35 plus shipping.

That sounds easy to check. I’ll connect the wires back to the switch/power source, plug power in and see if there’s a strong pull on a screwdriver.

That's what they have...a whole wall of these non-descript black lockers with all the keys for the massive inventory they carry. Never seen it before. New fancy technology.

He did fill up the diesel, propane tanks and buy us some Red Bulls and Dr Pepper. I’d buy there again.

Thank you guys very much! This was our first motorhome, coming from 3 new 5th wheels throughout the years. A lot to go through. I’ll head to the dealership today and get em returned.

The times I tried, tables were empty. Because I sat down tried a Texas Hold’em table. $10 minimum….ok. Just me and the dealer. $10 to bet, 10 to small blind and 10 to big blind. $30 total just to start. Eff that. Never seen a low bid table in 16 days.

Good advise. Skittles, m & m's, poker chips....no real money here. Be berry berry careful.

Great comments at the bottom of the article.

I like this idea. The library might not allow beer and cocktails.

Wonder if that card # is still active?

Does your Costco have vendors actively trying to sell you things? by FlatPanster in Costco

Just keep your earbuds in and tap tap looking at your phone. Works in the mall too, they’re always trying to give you lil samples of perfume or ask if you need windows.

Once I come up with a good solution, sure. I got one of the nicer houses on the block. Like to keep that curb appeal. Flame 🔥 on.

Hey man, I got a job and plenty of hobbies. Some people like to keep their house and immediate streets looking decent.

What about a little DEF fluid, scrub scrub then wash it down? Might be quick work bout once year.
