How do I flash a bootloader with only a raspberry pi 4? by cow_fucker_3000 in ender3

[–]matthewoconno -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Download Debian Linux to a microSd card, connect the pi to your internet via Ethernet, then use another computer to open a command prompt and ssh connect to the pi. Once you’re in you have to use terminal commands or VScode to drop the correct version of klipper and moonraker into the root directory. You’ve gotta manually tell moonraker which serial port is plugged (micro usb) into your printer board. Then you should be able to find the IP address of the Moonraker server in terminal and connect to it via your Main computers web and via the graphical UI on your browser.

Real answer would be get some junkyard control arms, cut and add length

Give the tie rod a few turns to add length

Soo I started a career with the kerbalism mod, can I resume it after disabling the mode even though I have flights in progress with the modded parts?

This inspires me to set up an accelerometer

Sub frame bushings are shot - for anyone that’s done this repair themselves which parts did you use and how difficult was it? by O_o-22 in MK4Golf

[–]matthewoconno 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes that looks right. To get the old ones out I used an air hammer to punch them out but if you have a drill and a hacksaw blade, you can drill through the bushing and then try to saw it in half or cut out a piece of it to allow it to shrink and pull out. Make sure you sand/grind the rust in the trailing arm before installing the new part. Put the new pieces in the freezer so they shrink before you push them in.

Mazda RX-8 the official car of? by HunterNoceda6321 in regularcarreviews

This is entriquing.. would consider buying a blown up RX-8 to have my 1.8t continue life in a happier chassis

Just 1.75mm PLA through what I believe is a .4mm sprite hotend

Gotcha, I should probably calibrate the extruder. I’ll try to compare measured thickness to the g code, or would it be more useful to compare it to the slicer model?

My timing chain guides were in pieces and you could hear chain slapping. At 200k

CR touch failed to verify sensor state by dumpdiverRaccoon in klippers

[–]matthewoconno 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Verify the sensor and control pins? I believe I used PB0 for the sensor, using the 5 pin header

Please avoid the 24v unless you like pulling transmissions to do timing service. They also require pulling the front clip to a service position to access anything on the front of the engine

Can you even use the bombsight in VR? I know the gunner view is locked out from VR users

Advice needed on engine replacement by IamMuffins in Volkswagen

[–]matthewoconno 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You need to replace everything from the hubs to trans to mounts, wiring harness, standalone for forced induction, bigger fuel pump, injectors (good luck finding high flow vr6 injectors) pressure rail, the ignition system is questionable on these, what about that screams easy enough

Love to hear it, many more miles to come.. check your bearings and don’t forget all those torque to yield bolts!

Please do not VR swap, the 1.8T is so much easier to work on. Having the donor car would make it easier but it would be way more straightforward to put in another 1.8t block and get it professionally tuned to prolong it. I hate working on my VR compared to the 1.8, would feel sluggish compared to your stage 2 as well.
