Use a smaller hammer.In one instance due to a piezoelectric transducer's output EMF - and that following 60 db of attenuation!
Confession: I had to replace one socket...so far.45 year old socket set! Wow!
Nope. The reason my car rains on the inside is that I never sold an air conditioner to replace one I could fix. Even the ones I replace for, "energy conservation", I handed the customer a cost analysis to show when the new air conditioner would pay for itself. In the first year of mandated minimums, I refused to sell any air conditioners because the manufacturers were charging so much I couldn't get a break-even cost in less that 17 years.Perhaps you've discarded or recycled equipment that was functional
The Internet has cured that problem.nor even sell the 'raw' system components
My beef with GM is adding talc to their plastic fan blades (in the heater/AC) so they disintegrate at about 12 years old.from aluminum to polymer intake plenums suffered quite anticipatable internal coolant leakage
Update: I spent the night washing the intake valley of my car's engine, then blow drying the rust layer so I could find the leak. I'm doing my happy dance because I proved this is NOT a head gasket problem.
How bad was the leak?
It was so bad that I found a dead frog at the rear of the valley cover.
Yay!
I got past the leaky transmission problem by using Teflon bearing pipe thread sealant.
Odd. Teflon tape didn't work.
It still had a hanging drop of transmission fluid the next day.
Now it's all fixed.
OK. Time to take the thermostat housing off before the rain starts. *Continued in the Weather Thread.
