    Alignment Tool for Aplha One Gen 2

    Agree one side is higher than the other, and Ill guess your assembly is the newer style that doesn't use the wound washer. Do both sides have the same bushing installed with the knurled edge on bottom?

    Servicing my trailer bearings

    Many times the heat coming from the bearings is actually coming from the brakes. Might need to replace the brakes, or any of it's parts, won't know until you get into it Bearing sizes are pretty standard, getting the right ones should be easy Using shop rags is no issue same as most any other...

    Do you want a DRY bilge?

    Hope it works the way it says it does Buddy has a 40 Regal that uses packing like yours. He was going to need his re-packed then noticed it leaking even more. Come to find out instead of the outer shaft tube being part of the hull the boat used a Brass shaft tube. Could grab the nut and turned...

    Gen 4 454 harmonic balancer screaming?

    Removing Spiders

    Vacs can suck them up "but" that will not get rid of them, it only slows them down. Spiders are worst this year than prior, why I have no idea Need to spray the boat and surroundings but that to is bad. Think if everyone sprays 2 to 3 ounces of bug stuff, that is thousands of gallons of bug...

    Retirement Financial Planing

    My accountant said similar, you don't know how long you will live so we should claim SS as soon as we could. That said, he also knew we didn't need it, but if another needs the extra income to not be scrimping by, waiting may be a better option

    Dual Batteries

    I think it's a good idea to use something to connect Gen Bat to Start Bat in case motor Bat will not start the motor. I don't agree to use the Gen Bat as a house Bat extension for added power. A gen Bat is last ditch to help get Motor started, and with that if motor doesn't start, start the Gen...

    Burning valves and melting spark plugs 5.7 efi

    Agree, sounds like lean condition Unable to locate your serial number but being a 1996 350 TBI I would have the injectors cleaned and flow tested. Make sure to keep the 2 injectors identified for which side they came from to confirm
