Re: [Shop-talk] Maximum speed with a limited use spare (score: 1): Author: pethier@comcast.net; Date: Sun, 16 Aug 2009 03:31:31 +0000 (UTC); On a FWD car, I would say put the toy spare on the rear and do 50 MPH all the way in to your destination. On a BMW, not so much. Running with the spare on the rear will wear your differential. Runnin; /html/shop-talk/2009-08/msg00045.html (10,572 bytes)

There a few gasoline stations in my town which sell it for "Antique cars and Lawnmowers". Sorry, still no lead. Use Sta-Bil in the fuel.

Re: [Shop-talk] AC for garage (score: 1): Author: pethier@comcast.net; Date: Wed, 2 Dec 2009 21:41:18 +0000 (UTC); There are units that come in two pieces so that you just drill a smallish hole through the wall for refrigerant lines.

My thermostat only goes down to 50 and it's costing me darn near nothing to maintain 50 in Minnesota. Should be a walk in the park for Sherman Texas.
