Sorry, I lost the original note, but seems to me that Laura might do well to try picking dates from the "tough folks" category so the top can stay down. Then I could have called her up -- about 25 ye

I purchased a tool to make the bubble flare that is found on the master cylinder and PDWA end of the world. It works just fine. The kit included a clamp (like you describe) and the various dies, but

I'd suggest first looking for a needle valve blocked open by debris. Since the flooding started suddenly, it suggests a sudden failure of some sort. The other possibility that comes to mind is a bro

I'm guessing you have received a number of replies already, but I really needed to say it myself "She Who Must Be Obeyed" aka spouse of the female gender, or S.O., I suppose. A follow up question: d

Following up to my own answer, I suppose it (SWMBO) could be properly interpreted as Someone Who Must Be Obeyed, though I'd only heard it in reference to the Female Spouse. (Who dragged me to church

Someone with more experience may pipe up. The order is: fuel tank, gasket, meter body, lock ring. If the fuel tank and meter body surfaces are smooth, planar (not warped) and clean, no gasket sealant

FWIW, the 13-coil spring (if it has the same wire characteristics as the 10-coil sprint) will be softer. Springs in series add like resistors in parallel. Assume 150 lbs/inch for the 10-coil spring;
