Gee, that's odd. My 95 Buick has factory roller lifters. The 89 Dodge did too, though most people call them followers in OHC engines. Ford Mustangs have also had them for over 10 years (and some of
No, I don't know that. I don't claim to be intimate with every engine made in the last 20 years; Those are just the only engines I know of offhand. But since every single one I have owned has roller
Beats me. Any kind of paper can be forged (including cash), so the only 'safe' alternatives I know of are either a direct bank-to-bank wire transfer or paying an escrow company to assume some of the

You didn't hang out in the right places. The UNIX system with ARPANET access was over in the EE building. Some heated discussions as I recall, over the EE department having it instead of the Math de
That could be, the access may have been by dialup. But I'm sure it existed; and I'm pretty sure it was the big 11/70 instead of one of the smaller 11/45, etc. systems. I'll ask George, next time I s

So, what happens when what you are pressing on breaks loose ? Does the ram then extend all the way as the air expands ? Also, I assume that silver cylinder starts out full of hydraulic fluid, which
It does. Thanks to all who replied. Now that I'm moving towards having compressed air available all the time (not just after waiting for the compressor to build pressure), I may look into one of tho
No argument from me; but my current 20 gallon tank leaks down in a matter of minutes. Yes, I should replace it, and the replacement is sitting in the backyard, waiting for me to bolt it to the wall
FWIW, the pressure switch (which doubles as the on/off control) on my Sanborn compressor had a second pair of contacts that still worked after the first pair quit working. Since you get no sound at
FWIW, what I did was make an entirely new run, all the way back to the furnace. Worked out quite well, and I still don't know what that white stuff was. Cut a new hole in the furnace thimble; Home D
Strictly speaking, that's quite true. But the neat thing about the infrared units is that they heat your skin directly, rather than having to warm all the air in the room first (and the walls, ceili
All of them. However, the potential is relatively low. The main points are 1) Adequate ventilation. Anything that combusts has the potential to use up all the oxygen. Most houses leak enough air tha
So much so that all gas heaters made since 1982 are required to incorporate an oxygen depletion sensor in the safety valve. http://www.cpsc.gov/CPSCPUB/PUBS/452.html Randall ________________________
I think you are confusing maximum pressure with the pressure for a rated flow. "19.1 cfm @ 125 psi" does not mean it won't go higher, only that 125 is where they measured the 19.1 cfm. Also note tha
