  2. ya i got evrything on wheels..nnot just any whls..they can't be plastic..plastic whls melt in the 161f heat comin off the deck..they gotta be rubber compounnd..i get the little carts at harbor freight $10ea..a regular item but the smaller size sell out fast if they hv them
     
  3. Yeah, definitely.
    I don't have the heat up here, however I get more solid wheel/casters as well.
    I love me some Harbor Freight for specific things, casters being one of em.
    Last I got though, was decent sump pumps from them at the same cost it cost me for underpowered pond pumps I had been running.

  7. so the latest i heard on baby daddy fuking up surprised me..i look out for my car and cacti so his rug rats don't mess wit them..however those little monsters decided they would kick the photo sensor where it goes frm dirt into a concrete pillar for the garage..kicked it till it strt'd sparking..lnd lrd is PISSED OFF! now he gotta hire a electrician to fix it...nvr should hv rented to these fuks in the first..evrything i predicted would happen wit them has pretty much ocurred..they don't look after their kids until something happens then its nvr their fault..gonna complain about the cacti but too stupid tto imagine that their kids could get electrocuted kicking electric conections..ya all HAT no Cannon!

  11. I don’t believe your clutch is a cable. The shifter is, but petal to slave is hydraulic, so depending where it is “stiff” may hurt you chasing it, meaning the hydraulic system is not the one to be playing with if it’s working at the moment. Now the actual linkage, go for it, but I don’t think it’s gonna be a linkage issue, but I could be 100% wrong since I am not there to see the cables

  12. And if you say one tire is plugged, to save some money, you could have a shop take the plug out and patch it. It’s an actual repair and a truly sealed at that point

  13. its like you gotta ride the clutch to not stall in first..it clicks into evry gear as you go thru the gears..sounds like a gated shifter i see on YT..nvr had a car sound quite like this..ya them cables stretch and a lazy or cheap mechanic would tighten it very tight rather than replace the cable..nxt thing it snaps when you in stop n go traffic..had it happen on the way home gettin ready to cross the golden gate bridge inn my vw bk in the day..tied the cable together ..waited till traffic died dwn annd drove across wit nno clutch..ay yah! ..made it home though and nvr drove a bug again witout spare cable

  14. most of those cables are non adjustable is the sad part, i have never seen one with adjustment other than an auto trans shift cable. heck i think adjustable clutch and shift cables were phased out in the early 90's. so it will be a whole twin cable replacement.

    as for the riding the clutch feeling. welcome to a dual mass flywheel. my 2010 escape was the same at times. but if its a lack of power issue. that could be it to. if you dont have an engine light on, then you have no power loss.

  19. plnnts look gd this morn..drp'd breeder seeds this morn X-20..Bohdi dud'd out totally.. DSCN2752.JPG DSCN2755.JPG DSCN2753.JPG DSCN2754.JPG
     
  20. I usually soak them in a bottle with the tiniest bit of dish soap smeared on the inside of the lid. Just give it a shake to put a little soap into the water. It breaks the surface tension and the good seeds sink to the bottom.. It doesn't seem to affect the seeds at all. Been doing it for years.
