try a soldering iron on the jet, good for direct heat on small stuff to help loosen it up

corvette combined FPR and filter was all the rage for engine swaps 5-10years ago. dont need a regualtor on the rail, or a return

i could never get these to work with holden 700r4 to holden dash with mitsi diff. yellowbox worked right out of the box

Perfect time to make up some nice brass gears for a diy inline speedo corrector. I have an old Miles to kph one in morrie

I made some similar things to do the floor in my ute. I used a press, but some things i learned i made 2x square 19mm plywood, with the same size hole in each of them. With plenty of overlap for the panel (2 or 3 times the diam of the circle) and zinged self tapping wood screws all around the edge. This helped a lot to keep any wrinking of the surrounding flat to a minimum. Then i welded a few pieces of 10mm steel together and spun it in a drillpress and shaped it with a grinder to make the correct floor shape, i made this maybe 2mm smaller than the hole in the bucks as you will have a hole in it to do this, what you can then do is drill a hole dead centre in the sheet metal you are shaping. without a press, you can put another plate of 10mm steel on the other side of your wooden bucks and using a greased up bolt, ugaduga the two together. 1mmis steel will shape really well this way, and might save you some elbow with the hammer

thermostat out, fill with water and soda crystals let it run for a bit. OS approved i usually back flush thr radiator and heater while im at it

it still wont heat up lol my ute was never higher than just above bottom notch with a stuck open thermostat (except for the time i forgot to turn the fan on and had to open and close like 30 farm gates)

have you seen thr crf450 pistons? they are literally just ringlands with a boss for the little end

they are supposed to have the E marking on them (or equivalent). its in the entry cert paperwork if you are looking for it. china will put an e on anything you want, and i recall a wof doesnt need the e you can of course put some big ugly definately road legal gn125 lamp ziptied on for the inspection and then remove after for a small one, i did something like that for DR200 For motorcycle (Class L) this is apparently only required if built after 1st jan 2006, for brakes. Indicators are 1996. Also only needs to be shown to.comply however that is, but just easier to put modern complying ones on for thr inspection tbh

i made something almost identical the other day on mine in mild steel, you just need earmuffs and stone the tool occasionally

Thats Rad!

perfect time to make some wide rims lol

you dont really even need that. i got a JP to sign a thing i wrote saying i bought it from so and so on this date for this much (without any evidence tbh), i handed it over with my paperwork at the inspection but they never even looked at it

gona fix itself annnnnnyyyy day now

is there anything special about them? theres some in the various pickaparts bang in a couple of new ujoints for luck?

JAPPA CRAP will benefit from thinner wire, if you can deform the panel steel by hand like on 2000s + stuff. i usually have 0.8 in my welder for everything, but swap it out if im doing more than a little patch on anything stuff like that

yeah spot weld cutter, a sharp putty knife, theres sometimes a bitnof brass in the corners. you just work around without forcing anything, give the flanges a hitnwith a sander to bring up where th3 spot welds are, use the puttyknife to slide along and find any hidden ones, can also use it to sperate any welds you didnt quite get with the drillbit/spot weld cutter. i dismantled my whole ute tray like that because similarly it was all.rusted along one seam. all the panels came off usable again also did the sills, but they had been apprenticed and brazed all over, but was replacing them, oh and everybothet panel because mitsi

everyone seemed to agree that they ran it out of the box and should have put oil in it rather than trust what ever was in or not in it

i used to put filters with a spot for lock wire on them on my bike, you might like one cos racecar you might also just get the threaded part made up in a lathe to a tighter fit, rather than change the whole setup

yeah, might want to roll them over the edge of something flat and see if one wiggles

thats alright. It was about the $230 mark for deposit each bunnings bottle i think be handy for adding bottle.mounts to bicycle frames once a year

i vaguely remember something about setting it up as a home network not working for that, instead it needs to be something else. but i hhaave been playing with win2000 and xp, so it might be for that

i think was this, but i havent found the actual thread was was looking at yet. 🔁 Tips for Accessing All Files Sharing an entire C:\ drive will let you see everything, but you must run Windows Explorer as administrator to access ChatGPT said: To run Windows Explorer (File Explorer) as Administrator on Windows 10, it’s a bit tricky because it doesn’t allow it directly through right-click. Here's how you can do it: ⚙️ Method 1: Run Explorer as Administrator Using Task Manager Press Ctrl + Shift + Esc to open Task Manager. Go to the "Details" tab. Find explorer.exe, right-click it, and choose End task. This will close your desktop and taskbar. Don’t panic — it’s normal. In Task Manager, click File > Run new task. Type: explorer.exe Then check the box that says: ✅ Create this task with administrative privileges Click OK. Your desktop and Explorer will restart with admin rights, allowing you to share drives fully. il have a deeper look for it later today

oh i remember this. something like you are setting it up the way that makes sense - on a local network. but actually thats WRONG and the actual way to connect it so you can see the files is hidden somewhere different. il see if i can dig it back up
