Patch Muck Rain Boot seams
zhlédnutí 27Před rokem
I ended up trying Aquaseal NEO because Aquaseal is generally highly recommended and this type has a tip that I was looking for to work on the boot seams specifically. I was kinda nervous that it is highly recommended for neoprene but I'm using it mainly on rubber seams. It seems to be a good quality choice after a couple weeks.
Check & Change your Furnace Filter!
zhlédnutí 20Před rokem
If you have a furnace in your place, you should be checking and changing the filter. Especially if you've just moved into a place, you should check it. I've moved into a place before where the filter was so nasty it made me want to puke. Renters may not realize it is also in their own best interest to be checking it themselves!

  • @Anubalfer
    @Anubalfer Před 6 měsíci

    So the little white tab that acts like a lever releasing the fluid can slide off and make it near impossible to light. The black tab controls the flame height and it does so by controlling the amount of fluid coming out via a gear near the valve. To the right is more and to the left is less. You can lift this black tab off the gear and rotate it to the left for more fluid or to the right for less. I believe you can also do this by pulling the trigger without the safety, thereby having the white tab push down on the black tab, and moving the black tab appropriately. However, the components are flimsy enough that over time things can move out of place and cause issues.

Then, I removed some of the fuses to see if the "slide door"indicator light would turn off but it doesn't. I did also replace the roller because the wheel was broken.

      I just want to say, I bought from this man on etsy and yes, he only sells it on his etsy site because ebay has been such junk for sellers. It came in a small package in the mailbox and it is wonderful. There are many choices out there for vcm, support this guy, his product has been great. The resistance is changeable, so if your honda gets too warm it will still show on the dash and the vcm would come on as a precaution. Thanks. 2015 Odyssey here.

    I need to disable VCM on our 2010 Ody EX-L. I worked through a check engine light, VSA light on the dash and engine shudder this past week. All seems to be working now! I've read up on the evil VCM and want to disable it for good. I considered the options listed on OdyClub and Piloteers, but want to spend as little as possible since we are not in this Ody for the long run anymore, actively looking to trade it in. The DiPressor seems like a good solution for a good price. I considered the DIY route, as it is really cheap to do, but doing it that cheaply is permanent. @MN Murph and others that have tried the DiPressor, are you all still happy with it, meaning is it still doing its job at disabling VCM and keeping the evil ECO light at bay? Murph, definitely interested to hear how it is holding up with MN weather. We are in MA, so have snowy winters and roads treated with salt just like you guys. FYI, it looks like the eBay DiPressor seller is also selling it on Etsy.

    • @mnmurph
      @mnmurph Před rokem

      Ya, it's holding up. If you read up on it you know it's a simple thing, so I'm thinking there's not much that can go wrong with it. It's fine through the winter in MN. Just reduce the ohms in the cold, and increase them going into Summer.

    Hey, Murph. Thanks for the video. Had to laugh at your process for finding this one as it was the exact same as mine. From the $90 sticker shock, the unimpressive looking quality of the mid priced ones that you still have to fiddle with, to searching for a cheap one on eBay and finding the Dipressor. Couple questions if you don't mind: It's still working well for you? And generally speaking, lower temps = lower resistance and higher temps = higher resistance?

    Hello MN Murph, Appreciate your vlog on this VCM muzzler. Most Honda owners nightmare who have a VCM vehicle. Can you provide an update since it was installed so viewers can get an idea how well the DiPressor works. Did it stop the oil burning or oil loss? Did the Eco light ever rear it’s ugly head ever? Did you ever had to adjust the VCM to a higher than 82 Ohms? Do you live in a state with cold winters and hot summers? Thanks!

    • @mnmurph
      @mnmurph Před 2 lety

      Update, a year or two later, it's still working. The ECO light does pop on once ina while, though not with the jolt that used to accompany it turning on/off, nor the lurch in acceleration/power. I'm in Minnesota with extreme winters and summer temps up to 100°F. I do have to adjust it in the summer or the ECO light stays popping on. Now that we're in the hot season again I have to adjust it again, otherwise i turn the first and last switched to "off", for 109 ohms. That works pretty good still, but I've gotta put it a little higher to around 120 ohms.
