4 wire from ATS that's because it's your first point of service disconnect
Ok good to know.
that fitting should have came with a O ring on it
The fitting that I attached to the generator.
Doesn't it depend on lumber type, heat (plenty of hot weather) and humidty? yellow pine in SE GA, bark side up. I'm finishing up replacing rotted joists and deck boards o 20' x 20' deck. I fell through 2½ ft tall deck, 3 times. No injuries due to my "cat-like" reflexes. 65+ year old grandma.
Redwood and cedar can be layed either way usually using the finished side up. When laying pressure-treated pine I prefer bark side down. At any rate, I am sure that your deck will look good for many years. I would try to seal the deck once it dries out in a month or so. I myself have developed those cat-like reflexes but it is after I hit the ground. Thank you for watching.
Hi John, I have an ESP-6, at this point I do not want to fix it. I just want to disable it so how do I do that? Ideally, I would just turn the valves off and leave them off forever and just use of a surface sprinkler. I guess my question is how do I turn the valves off permanently? the fault keeps the valves on right now.
Hi Tim, you can just unplug it the valves need power at the solenoid to open the valve up. If you have reclaimed water you can shut it off at the meter.
Can you just tape an rfid blocker on the generic filter?
I don't believe that will work. I thought the next time I would leave the label on the old filter and cut the filter in half to use the the label from the old filter.
If you use the filter bypass, is the water being filteted?
No, the water is not being filtered. I hope you got your free one. Thanks for watching. Let me know how things work out it helps all of use.

Save yourself some money and just buy phosphate-free dishwashing detergent. It can be either liquid or granular. There is nothing else you need. Been doing it for years. Soak it overnight and rinse it really well with a spray hose. Your filters will look pristine white. You don’t need to spend money on any proprietary products. That’s just biological waste on the filter. Dishwashing detergent is meant to remove exactly that. Just make sure, again, that it is PHOSPHATE-FREE.
Thanks for the tip. Someone else mentioned that too but he did not mention phosphate-free. That helps me and my other viewers.
@@fixitjohn The primary food source for algae is phosphates so that’s why.
@@fixitjohn Speaking of pools, I struggled with yellow algae for years. Wasted tons of money on shock. All that shock screwed up my pool chemistry, including out of control, cyanuric acid and calcium levels. Eventually, you end up draining the pool because there’s no way to correct it other than through draining. Ever since I began adding PoolRx to my pump basket I’ve never had an algae problem. Best $100/year I’ve ever spent. It releases chelated copper which kills algae. I have a pebbletec pool and have never had a problem with staining. The PoolRx also requires way less pool chemicals to maintain chemistry. So you end up saving a ton of money on shock. One unit lasts 6 months then add a booster but keep the unit in there. That lasts another six months. Then replace unit. I only use Dichlor if I need cyanuric acid otherwise I use straight liquid chlorine at night because sunlight will destroy it. The liquid chlorine will not mess with your chemistry, but Dichlor will it will raise your stabilizer or cyanuric acid level. I also avoid calcium based shock because even though it’s the most powerful, it will raise your calcium level, which is a huge problem.
@@AereForst ok, thank you

Hi keep safe
Hi Rose, we are safe. Thanks for watching.
Funny, I have a condo right down us 19 from that field. Is the tractor still in that field? I live in NY, but when I was down there in April I was just saying that I would do some training in that field if I lived there. See if you can trap some pigeons. I used to see a bunch under all the overpasses on us 19.
SCOOOOOOP!!

Great video. Having the same issue.
Glad it helped
Fantastic video John, very nice dog and great memories
Thanks, Mickey that dog follows me all over. He is a great companion too. Thank you for watching.
I’m glad I watched this before installing my deck boards. I heard this before but never know it until now. Thanks John 👍🏾
You are welcome. Thanks for watching!
Good job, you took your time, lighting and viewing the video were perfect, and from watching your video - I discovered that my floor is uneven and the toilet moves( I go for a ride every morning).
Awesome, thank you!
How do you screw a screw into a concrete floor? Is it a certain type of screw? Do you need to drill a hole first?
I use just an average wall anchor and tap it in after I drill it out. They sell those at the hardware store as kits with screws in the kit. I hate to tapcons.
What size oil filter?
I can not remember what size of the filter. Here is a link to my other oil change video and the part number of the oil filter that will work. czcams.com/video/7nlayKq8JrQ/video.htmlsi=7Eu5mAAxgiFl5e0W
I bought one to Ghana. How can I get 240 volts from the genarator.
You have to wire it back to the service panel/breaker box
Does it matter whick order you do the oil change. I noticed you reset the % first, then the filter, then drained the oil. I do just the opposite, is that your personal preference.
Hi Allen, no it doesn't matter. I do the oil first so I don't get back in the truck all dirty and greasy. Thanks for stopping by
Nice Plug for PREMIUM GAURD 😎
No! I won't buy that one again. There is no water separator on it. Thanks for watching. Come back and make another visit.
I take mine out and hose them off with a garden hose. Filters like new now.
I do to at least every two weeks.
Thank you! Great video!!!
Glad you liked it! You are welcome.
The oil cleaner four at twenty dollars? You could buy a new filter😂
Thank you for your comment. It is a little more than $20.00 dollars for our filters. But one of my viewers suggested using a dishwasher pod to clean the oils.
I've had issues with SuperTech oil maintaining oil pressure. I have a 2002 Tacoma. Every time I use SuperTech oil I have problems with low oil pressure at idle. When I use Mobil One or Quaker State, no pressure issues. All oils were 10W-30 full synthetic, high mileage formulations. Granted, the engine does have 250,000 miles. But this would still prove there is a quality difference between oils.
Thanks, maybe others will chime in on this topic. Thank you for your experiences.
I ordered the Oregon G5s on Amazon, but they substituted the Rotary Copperheads instead. Have never used these blades.
The G5 is supposed to be the best. I had never used them but never had a problem with the copperhead blades. But I have not cut commercials for over 25 years. Good luck and let me know how you like the copperheads. Thank you.
I appreciate you posting this video...❤
I am glad that it helped. Thank you for watching!
Thank goodness you don't do thing for a living. You work so slow and talk too much.
How many CFM on your attic fan?
I think1020 CFM it has been a long time. Works great still. If I had it to do over with the way my attic is vented. I would have installed it on the trusses because I have off-ridge, ridge vents. I hope that helps. Thanks for watching.
Very Good and detailed information 😊.
Glad it helped. Thanks!
Good thing you were holding that paper towel. Otherwise you might’ve got oil on everything.
The paper towel was to help grip the oil drain plug and keep it from burning my fingers. Thanks for watching.
Use the AC Delco fuel filter and stop buying that junk. 30,000 miles proves the point.
thanks for the tip.
John, thanks for the info. After listening to you I believe I have a thermistor problem. My freezer is not getting cold enough. It makes some ice and then quits. Frig is fine, and I did replace the cap and relay on the compressor, it didn't help. Because the frig is fine it eliminates defrost and fan problems. So, after all you have demonstrated I think it's the thermistor. Thanks Rick
Is the food frozen if it is you may need to replace the ice maker itself? I had to replace ours at one point before I did that video. The thermistor regulates the fridge temperature. Good luck!
is it possible the evap fan may be running but failing?...its on but just isnt cooling the fridge
Have you looked to see if you have a block of ice on your evaporator coils? Yes, it is possible that the fan won't work but if you can hear it, it is probably still good.
Door still slams.....
Hi Gerdo, there is a bracket that connects to the door just to the right of the adjustment screw. That may help you if you move it left or right.
@@fixitjohn Thanks, quick reply, actually it's just the last 3 or 4" where the piston looses all air/compression, tried replacing, no fix apparently.
Thank you, that’s helpful, but the door still slams. I’m commenting only because I was able to use the tip that you just shared to slow the closure of my door, but once it makes contact, there’s still a heavy slamming sound, just like in your video.what does one do about that? Is it a matter of thick weatherstripping or something to soften the contact?
Hi Monica, there is a bracket just to the right of that adjustment screw with two screws loosening those screws, and moving that bracket should help you fine-tune it. Thanks for watching.
How many clips are on it all together on the high pressure hose holding it stationary ?
2 on the bottom and 1 on the valve cover. It has been a long time ago. Let me know if you need any more help. Read through the comments there are a lot of good ideas.
WIX...... Crap! Expensive... Your buying the name....
I second the motion!
So, is it smart dumping all that poison into your pool?
Thanks for asking, the pool needed a gallon of acid so I really would not call it poison unless you drank it. Thank you for watching.
Thank you for the video. I did exactly as you did and it was easy peasy! Scored bonus points with the wife 😂😊
I just bought the exact same valve to replace the old one. Doing a remodel as well, old valve wasn’t leaking but handle is stuck. Good to know that I may need to use the old screws. Thanks for the video! Fingers crossed over here. 🫣
You will do great. You will keep that money for yourself! Read the comments someone suggested using a wrench or pliers on the screwdriver if you can't get your hand on it. Thank you for watching!
White washer should have went under metal washer. Protects the china and gets a good grab. 2nd metal washer wasn't really needed.
Ok thanks
Hey John, what are the Phillip Screws under the faucet plate for? I
Thank you for your question. I would think it is there to hide the ugly pipe.
Thank you! I’m your 20% audience and really appreciate your thorough video instructions for this task today! Very helpful to not have to buy a new oven!
Glad it was helpful! Thank you for watching.
There's a lot easier way of doing this. It involves removing the 2 bolts that hold the fuel head to the motor. No need to remove the inner fender well. You do need to remove the air intake for easier access.
Is that how you do it?
Great video. Thanks for sharing
You bet. Thank you for watching!
THANK YOU John, much appreciated video and i like the proof on of concept, i always thought it was the complete oposite but i must admit i am removing an old deck at the moment and the most rotten planks are the ones cupping, obviously i guess. I will build the new one using that technique !
You are very welcome! I am sure that it will turn out great. Thanks for watching.
Great job! Noticed the now sub panel needs to be replaced! Old panel mixed breaker.
Good call!
Big Thank You! I messed up the wires with the numbers but thanks to you I was able to fix it.
