And I see you say that the unit is working OK again, so a fried board isn't the problem. It didn't unfry itself.

I've been reasonably happy with the Sears belt drive model. It's quieter than the others and it has worked well for me. I haven't really done a major survey, though. Sears is just very convenient for

So far, mine shows no sign of wear at all. I think that compared to driving a camshaft in a car engine for 60K miles, a garage door opener belt has a pretty easy life. -Steve Trovato strovato@optonli

The latest fad/trend (depending upon your point of view) is filling tires with nitrogen instead of air. Check out http://www.getnitrogen.org/ if you want to learn more about this. Anyway, I was wonde

I have used one. I find a traditional type more convenient for engine tuning. These do come in handy though for small engines and other applications where the usual hookup sources are not available.

So far, my opinion on the matter is mixed. The difference in expansion rate I think would only be relevant to racers. The benefits of slower leakage would only be of benefit to people who are too laz

Well, 21% of the air in the tire is not a negligible amount. It would take one heck of a lot of oxidation to use all that up. hydronic heating systems are another story. The amount of oxygen dissolve

Here in New York, we carry insurance cards that have an insurance company code on them. I don't know if all states do that, and I don't know if that code ends up on an accident report. If it does, th

I think with a little research you will find that N2 is in fact a larger molecule. It may be a smaller atom, but when they pair up to dance, the Nitrogens stay a bit farther away from each other. Or

Well, if you're so inclined, the usual way is to fill it, purge it and refill it. If you do that twice, you'll be very close to as pure as the source. How important that is is debatable, of course.
