@@vanessaziobro1118 It hasn't let me down, and I think you'll enjoy using this.

Thank you for that! I'll try it next time I strip it apart. Yeah, this was not fun to put back together and I knew I was doing something wrong.

@@billponderosa88 The film flam flange is so hard to reach behind the piddle paddle! I sure hope that's not what the issue is!

@@ronaldscott781 Oh that's cool, and a great option! I'm not using the extra power this new alternator can provide but I'm hoping that means it lasts longer.

That's not a bad idea. My HVAC friend who gave it to me suggested I build a box once the motor started overheating. I've thought about that but always had more pressing projects. I'd like to incorporate a way to direct the airflow more though.

@@spaceboy7192 beat me to it

@@spaceboy7192 Causing a restriction will lower the current draw? That makes no sense to me at all. Sounds like it will increase the current draw

@@spaceboy7192 It seems counter-intuitive, but yes, restricting the airflow somewhat actually works. I used a blower like this as a booster to improve the performance of a central A/C condenser unit. Despite the high temperature environment, it worked perfectly for years.

I've been Hvac service and install for 23 years. I hear what everyone is saying and I don't disagree but I've seen these work as shop fans for years first just check Amp draw when running also check the capacitor if it cap is good I think it's probably just bad motor. But I'm sure his little computer fan isn't going to help.

​@@TheRoostersGarageFind a meter capable of reading amp draw. Put a piece of cardboard on the opposite side of the motor. Name plate on the motor should have a amp rating. Adjust piece of cardboard to motor amp draw and secure. You will eventually let the smoke out of your motor by running wild...

I have one on mine definitely recommend especially when you’re going down the street. It doesn’t bounce around.

@@justsomecoronaviruswithint1897 That sounds very reasonable

The issue isn't keeping the water hot, this heater just doesn't really heat the water. The outside is always room temperature, so it's not losing a lot through lack of insulation. Wrapping it was my first thought when I started having issues. It's got several sensors and I thought it was a higher performance heater based on the specs. Instead it's primary design is to be energy efficient. It's always giving me warnings and recommendations because I have it set to 135, rather than a more energy efficient 120

Awesome!! I'm glad it helped. Thank you for letting me know

Well, their caliper is upside down by their design. I have a follow up video where I used a snow machine caliper, another brand of 4 wheeler hydraulic handle. Now it works great that I reengineered everything, lol

Yeah, it's been very solid too. Lockup happens before second gear, fuel mileage is up a bit, and it tows like a dream.

I'm sorry my response has taken so long. CZcams for some reason flagged this as a spam comment and I don't check the spam folder regularly. I'm no expert but I'd put money on low compression especially since you experienced a runaway. How many hours are on the motor? You might want to take it to a shop and let them look it over to ensure you don't have another runaway and ruin this since I'm sure it most likely holds sentimental value for you. If it wasn't for the runaway issue, I'd suggest trying some more things but knowing it's runaway once, if it were me I'd want a professional to look it over.

That's what I went looking for, but my small town hardware store doesn't have a huge selection so I had to make do with what was available or spend over 40 minutes in the truck.

I've heard people drag race with them and there's a huge aftermarket support system for them. I considered a 48RE, but I considered everything that would fit.

Yeah I have a fairly recent video that's a ride along czcams.com/video/bn7gbFaoQ9A/video.html

I really don't like working in the electrical panel. I truly prefer to stick to low voltage DC, lol

Great option too! Love it

Wow, never thought of that but that does make sense!

Elmer's wood glue is just brown dyed school glue, but much more expensive. My dad was into woodworking but I'm not a fan. My wife is a teacher so I have lots of access to school glue

Ohh, I bet they would. I'm not a golfer so I don't have any in hand

I don't keep the head in there, but that's a good point!

These are super old matches that barely strike even on the box, but normally yes the green tips are strike anywhere. These are strike on box matches but they put a green tip. I tried to strike these on several surfaces when they were new but nothing else worked

Elmer's school glue is the same as Elmer's wood glue, and I'm not a woodworker but my wife is a teacher so I asked her for a bottle of glue

Easier no, but I did this to fix a guitar strap button where a bigger screw wasn't am option.

Sometimes you can't use a bigger screw

I'm so glad this could save you money!!

Lol

You should try things before you say they won't work. I've done it for years

I tried it with my pocket knife and it wasn't sharp enough to cut it and wound up pulling it out too far for comfort. I bet with a razor it would be much better though. I'll do that on my spare tire that has the repair just sticking out.

I'll have to get one. I've broken more of these tools than I can remember

I just checked out their website and those are some nice looking tools!! Plus they don't use cement!

The plunger is a fork so it pulls off when you pull out. it's crazy I know, thought the same thing when I first seen it. Works great for small punctures like screws and nails.

The end has a split that allows the rubber to bend around and through. The first time I saw it I thought it would never work. A very clever engineer worked on the design

What method do you use?

@@TheRoostersGarage lube the reaming tool with glue, get the hole nice and clean and rough, proceed 50 add glue to the plug add fire a few second, blow out then insert give. Few seconds to cool in the tyre and remove the tool. Fire and lube work well every time lol. 😂

Because they’re Black

They never seal, won't stay in and sometimes pull out when removing the tool. I don't know what's different just that I've had the worst time with them

@@TheRoostersGarageyou ever use a bit of glue on the reaming tool for a bit of lube? I also use a bit of fire to set the glue on the plug before installing. Like I said in a previous comment only ever had one fail and use the black ones.. have has a few pull out, though before using the glue lube method.. maybe it’s just luck 😆..

@@kitty-rides I’ve never had the black ones fail maybe you’re just tireplugist

@@kitty-rides I've never tried glue on the reamer, or fire, but I like fire. I've set beads with fire a lot

Haha, yep. Dad ran them till multiple belts showed in his tires once and never had an issue with these leaking

My tire rolled it was bald and all u seen was a lil reddish dot wowzers

​@@TheRoostersGarage You sir are an idiot. Been in the tire industry my whole life (since birth) I'm 53. That is the most hillbilly shade tree crap in the world. Not to mention that's the cheapest crap plug kit you can buy. Do you even have a clue about the damage you've done to the steel belts. This is a video on what not to do to a tire people. This guy is a 🤡.

Watch my long format video and I go into detail on exactly how permanent this is

A lotta time this is all they are going to do to patch your tire at the shop they will end up using the same thing

When I worked at a tire shop we would pop the bead and use the plug and patch. Either is permanent but the plug and patch gave the customer the warm and fuzzies and we got to charge for more labor

Forget all that jazz. Just plug the fires and move on. Been doing like this for 35 years and never had an issue.

​@@TheRoostersGarage The worst part is I'm on the road with stupid people like you who think this is a legit repair. When you are to poor to care about your safety and the safety of people around you to pay 25 bucks for a real tire repair that 45 cent plug isn't the only poor decision you've made with your life.

I've done it before. It's all in what people can afford

@@TheRoostersGarage I don't doubt you've done it before. Point still stands, and those cheap car air compressors are about the same price as a bike pump now. Might only work twice, but you only need it to work once.

Lol, there's also gas stations with pay compressors that are cheap options too.

They just introduced their kit before I went with this and I would have had to get their torque converter as well, but wanted the CA torque converter. All I wanted was the bellhousing and may still get it one day to have the Cummins starter instead of the Ford one under the turbo

If you think that after I spent lots of time with Garmin's customer support then what does that say about their customer support? No, it actually wound up being my Samsung S10e phone for some very odd reason. I bought another boat and it had this same unit. I had the exact same issues. I wound up having to upgrade my phone and the new phone worked. No errors shown on the S10e or anything, just waiting. It's their terrible software 😂
