    GPS Location APP

    Question comes from what really happened. Ambulance is at the scene and has called for a Air Flight. Gives address of location to dispatch. Dispatch relays address to air ambulance but control nor air crew knows exactly where that is. So they give GPS coordinates to local hospital. I'm...

    Drive Lube Bottle Cap

    My Rinker is 26 years old and the drive lube bottle started leaking lube. I tell others that its the drive lube cap but never had the actual problem, and this time got to test. Bought new bottle and just put the new cap on the old bottle. All good no bubble up or leaking. The old cap valve...

    Have two 13.5V LED light with magnifying lens. Came with a 13.5V 3000mA and called a LED driver. The "driver" burned out and figured it out by using voltmeter and swapping with other working light. Bought a 13.5V 1A power supply. When plugged in the light flashes ON/OFF and not real fast...

    2012 Caddy and gauge has never been wrong "until now". Tank is at 1/8 and light has not come ON. Normally goes much lower before it comes ON. Pull into Meijers to drop Admiral off for shopping and I'm going to get gas. Car dies, yes were out of gas. Pump is 50 yards away and I'm not pushing...

    Ford closed cool TS Housing

    Member @Jakem has a 1975 Ford 289 with closed cooling. The short of the story is its not plumbed like it should and does not have a bypass hole in the thermostat housing. Without the bypass there is not enough flow. https://forums.iboats.com/threads/overheating.745111/ Need a housing that...

    Electrical wiring

    Dryer wiring 10/2 W ground Older wiring where the ground is braid around the 2 conductors and appear to be tinned copper, rubber jacket not vinyl. Hot wires are a tad to short in the breaker box, ground braid is plenty long. I'm thinking of using split bolt connectors inside the breaker box to...

    Wood cost

    Everyone has seen prices go up for wood. I was looking around at some places like HD which was selling 2x12x8 red board for $250, that's $31 a board foot. Is it really that high? Don't see how anyone would pay that for one board

    Ipod Nano 5th Gen and Uconnect

    Only way to get my nano to play with Uconnect is with the Aux jack. Yes I know its old but still works, sort of just like me :ROFLMAO: . Uconnect also has apple play built in Tried to find drivers for Win 7 and that came up as a bust. Don't really want to upgrade to another Ipod because its...

    Hunting Turkey w/o a license cost over $800

    Didn't know but I was hunting turkey without a license and one head light is $857. I hit the hen and tossed it into another pickup going the other direction, feathers everywhere. It just busted the lens but like all things, have to buy the whole light. Have to figure out what its going to...

    3.5 hard drive

    The home computer went died really quick. Need to power up the serial ATA western digital 320GB drive (BTW this is a RAID 0 so 2 drives). I connected my USB hard drive adapter to the drive and it would not spin up. My guess is the USB does not output enough power to turn the drive on. Worst...

    Need More Bling

    Got a new truck last month (already put 4500 miles on it :poop:) but just not liking all the black. Long story short, dealer used stock photos instead of actual photos. The short of it, I do like the way it rides but not all the black out, its a Night Edition. Has 20 inch wheels, and I...

    Hitch Pin Hardness

    Don't remember when I drilled out the hole on the end of the hitch pin, but its been a lot of years. Drilled it out so I could put a master key lock thru the hole. New truck has a class V receiver and my old class IV pin is a tad short. Bought a class V pin, looks the same (zinc plated)...

    12V Power on/off

    My new 2021 Ram 2500 Mega has one 12V outlet and 4 USB outlets but none of them turn OFF when the motor is shut down. I have a dash cam and now I have to unplug it. Don't think anyone here has the wiring diagrams for the truck, but maybe some ideas of how to get a more automatic on/off

    Swarm

    Walking back from the shop yesterday I heard a humming. The closer to house I get the louder it gets. Walk a couple steps into the woods and level increases. Never saw what it was but turned around and walked back out. I'm thinking hornets because of the lower drone pitch. About 30 minutes...

    Concrete finish ideas

    Contractor poured pouches in front and rear, and it shows the forms didn't go all the way down to the ground. Wondered why he dumped dirt against his forms before pouring but now I know. Maybe a concrete saw and cut the edges sticking out. If I try to break them off, most likely more of the...

    Best Browser add on's

    Maybe a thread on stuff to add and not add on Browsers. Have read many times about add blockers and installed UBlock and so far it's been great. For those that go to sites like OSO the add's go off the deep end IMO. After adding UBlock, there all gone. I'm using Fire fox and using its...
