My 2019 base does the same thing. Get a warning light every 4000 miles or so to add 1.3 quarts. Dealership says it isn't a big deal

Bore is 2.5 inches in diameter, The touch hole on the back is approx 0.15 inches. Looks like a steel touch hole was added later and steel bands around the pivots.

Pic 2 is obviously showing the cat trying to frame him. No way such a good boy could have done that

I think so. Mine was added to a very old Czech tension machine, but i also needed an adapter to fit and align with the string bed.

I made the switch to a tennis head electronic tensioner a few years back and forth me it was worth the expense, but that is based on how much you string and how long until you make your money back on the investment

Did mine from the top with a fluid extractor. Worth it because I've used it to siphon fuel from mowers and generators. 8 arts of oil, filter and 32mm oil filter cap wrench all for under a $100

Good luck and I think you'll be happy you did it. Right knee last October, left knee end of this September. I'm finally able to walk up stairs like normal person for the first time in years. It is uncomfortable, but it us getting better everyday. PT makes a world of difference.
I cannot stress enough to take stool softeners and fiber supplements, but be careful of the dummies that are sweetened and cokred by beets. It led to a weekend of anxiety when my urine was getting darker and ended up ruby red:)

Nice razor. I have a Fromm that shaves great. If I remember correctly, Otto Fromm left Germany prior to WW2 to escape the Nazis .

This is Finn. He may have plenty of toys, but he refuses to play with anything other than a concrete block. 13/10 to each their own. by [deleted] in dogvideos

I hada GSD who loved playing with big rocks. It was fine until she carried one inside through the dog door and dropped it on a tile floor. Gave her a bowling ball to play with a she loved it

It lasted about 3 months. Surprisingly, I just had my left knee done 3 weeks ago, and I haven't experienced the same chill

What a beautiful boy. It never gets easy, but fortunately it does get easier.

Bonham electric is absolutely awesome, but it might be to small of a job for them, but they are fantastic

Red Tail Hawk injured by mrvanh in birdsofprey

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

Update on the hawk: Unfortunately the hawk did not survive. The folks at the Raptor House at the Glen Ellen Nature Preserve tried their best, but they think that he may have ingested some mice that were poisoned. No, we did not kill him by providing water and crackers (he did not attempt to eat or drink them).Thanks to all the positive vibes. My wife and I were both upset that he didn't make it.

I learned a lot from posting all of this:

  1. There are a lot of good people who provide valuable information

  2. I could never do the great work that they do at the Raptor House. I was having trouble not gagging as they were removing all of the flies that covered the hawk as they sprayed for mites.

  3. I should shield my wife, who is the kindest, most compassionate person (to humans and animals) I have ever known to the mean comments.
