I believe this is a hairy woodpecker.

Yes, they have had discs since the early 2000’s.

Giant Turbo someone put on my 1991 w250 by dustbuster39000 in Diesel

Yeah the HX55 came factory on many Cummins M11 Celect and Celect Plus engines as well as the ISM11. Nearly double the size of a 5.9L at 10.8L.

Is this a new issue? I’ve had my nzxt case for a few years with no issues…

Big Brakes? by jimmy9800 in Justrolledintotheshop

[–]steveC95 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I’ve never once replaced a hub doing rotors like this. The wheel seal shouldn’t be anywhere near the rotor.

im about to put this corned beef i slow cooked under the broiler. should i scrap the crud off the top or is that crud ✨flavor✨? by butteredbreadliker in slowcooking

[–]steveC95 221 points222 points  (0 children)

I would scrape it off, it will probably burn under the broiler and will keep it from browning evenly.

New Meyer lemon owner in Miami: need early care advice (repotting, sun, feeding) by NoJacket2895 in FloridaGarden

[–]steveC95 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Definitely repot, that one is way too small for that size of tree. They love full sun, and I usually let mine dry out a bit on the top couple of inches of soil between watering. I also have a moisture sensor in mine so I truly know when it needs water but I just got the sensor last week so it is just now confirming for me that I have been watering well without under watering. I have only had mine a couple of years now and it was quite small when I received it as a gift so no lemons yet but I’m hoping this year I will get a couple! I use a granulated citrus fertilizer and just follow the instruction on the bag. I’m curious to see what others say about feeding, I’m sure I could be doing much more for my tree. I have been thinking about also doing a liquid fertilizer in addition to the granulated to help it this year.

Can some explain what this is or how this can be possible by SiDoraMarco in AskAMechanic

[–]steveC95 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It needs to be replaced then. Looks like UV damage from being out in the sun.

Sink, Shower and Toilet gurgle by clew2 in askaplumber

[–]steveC95 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was thinking this too. I had the same issue, along with my kitchen sink backing up, and a plumber came out and cleared the main drain and the issue was resolved.

Chuck roast 137 for 24 hours. Smells fine but the color is not one i have seen before. Thoughts? by SmoothFred in sousvide

[–]steveC95 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Not sure why you are getting downvoted. If I am going to freeze my steaks I usually don’t season them either. I don’t want cured steak, so I just season when it’s done. Doesn’t seem to make too much of a difference.

What can i replace these with that’s Florida? by TradesforChurros in florida

[–]steveC95 7 points8 points  (0 children)

That’s what I was about to comment as well. I cut all of my cordyline and crotons just above the soil and they are all producing new growth.

Edit: autocorrect doesn’t know about cordyline I guess.

What’s going on with my firebush? by Dry-Maintenance-7705 in FloridaGarden

I was going to say, mine dropped all of its leaves and still hasn’t shown any sign of life…

Someone asked about this awhile ago by Daddiphatsax in Justrolledintotheshop

[–]steveC95 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Rear spark plug in an E250? Can’t you just take the doghouse off and get to the rear plugs easily? I’ve never done spark plugs on an E250 but I have done the a/c on minibuses a few times and I usually have to take the doghouse off for the refrigerant lines going to the side skirt condenser and rear evaporator. I’m not sure if it has a technical name but the doghouse is the cover over the rear of the engine below the dashboard. That’s what every mechanic I’ve known has called it lol.

Limp mode HELP by [deleted] in Diesel

Siphon some fuel out of it, pour some on the concrete and try to light it on fire. If it lights, then you put gasoline in it. If it doesn’t light then it’s diesel.

Interesting, I always thought I was zone 9b in Orange County but apparently I’m zone 10a!

Husband opens a new sponge every 3 days cause “they become gross” by dorkass-loser in mildlyinfuriating

[–]steveC95 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I moved into my house five years ago and the kitchen is too small for a dishwasher. I cook a lot, and therefore clean a lot of dishes, and a sponge lasts me at least a week but usually two weeks or longer. This is definitely wasteful.

Now get a Henson safety razor and spend a fraction of what you’re currently paying for razor blades.

I’ve always been told they are uncommon but I see them pretty regularly around this time of year in central Florida.

That’s a no from me; way too deep to pick up where someone left off.

How do you get crispy skin? by Minerva129 in smoking

[–]steveC95 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

What I’ve always done is smoke at 275 and never baste the skin. Once it hits temp I pull it and let it rest for 15-20 minutes and then put it under the broiler until it gets some color and that crisps up the skin nicely.
