I had & tried some commercial strength lime away (removes CLR) and it not bad. AlumaNew sounds like a good product. I have a auto service...
What I found follows, but looking for method that has worked for someone already. Thanks Tom PS: For what it's worth, here is what I've found:...
They're stuck all the way in. Every light spec in the pic is a needle completely in the fins. Compressed air and vacuum did hardly anything....
Looks like the front case is aluminum with an steel side cover? I know they make aluminum ones (I actually have one dated 1963) so what is...
In my collection of T10 parts, I'm trying to ID a strange "4-Lug" Reverse Idler Gear and related Thin Reverse Gear. QUESTION: Is the 4-Lug Idler...
Ospho is more than just phosphoric acid. O can leave patches of a hard thick black residue - PA doesn't. So the $64 question has always been,...
I assume you're talking abut my No Name "Mystery" shifter?
Great to know! I have 4 I'm IDing but this is the only one with the 6-digit - and it is in the place where the OE manu put their part number. GM...
I may be wrong, but I thought I saw a housing stamping that was on the inside! If the limit bolts are indicative of aftermarket, then it's just...
Both of these were acquired in the early 70's
I just posted the "numbered mystery" Should I put pics of the No-Name? Why not (!) haha You can see on the 1st pic an "L" stamped (frankly, it...
EDIT: THIS IS WRONG: Does not say "Hurst" or "Competition/Plus" - only that 6 digit number. It does say "Hurst Competition/Plus" and the 6...
They're both going. I'd rather have a comfortable modern car that gets good gas mileage - I'm 70 and no interest in drama. I do not enjoy...
Sort of a Swan Song here - just sold my numbers matching 63 Super Red R2 Package Super Lark with swapped in B57 R4 (a la R3) engine. Had it since...
Shut Eyes Tip never thought of it! Will try very next strike but I'm thinking it will make a difference. In fact, the trick might be to use...
And yes, as I suspected, there are "3D Vision" helmets which use cameras, processing and displays so you see everything except the arc flash (!)...
First let me clarify by what I mean by "can't see" the puddle: it's all about the filter shade #. There are 3 objectives: 1) see surrounding...
Since you never liked them, that sounds like they don't let one see the puddle any better - I really don't care about the color, only the puddle.
They claim better vision of surrounding features - being able to follow a line, gap, seam, etc. (auto body welding is a PITA compared to...
VERY GOOD TO KNOW! There are actually a couple Everlast multi's for sale near Pittsburgh, but part of getting an Everlast would be the 5 year...
I'm in the middle of a rust jub on a 2010 Escape and have decided I need to get my Kemppi TIG up and running to see how I feel then - some never...
I was looking up the SP135 and found the SP135T and the SP135 Plus. Was it one of these or just a plain SP135? (Was reading that all the muffler...
LOL, I have the Kemppi TIG, I posted that for some people saying you can run TIG on your stick welder. Of course that would be scratch start, but...
Regarding a few mentions of running a TIG right off a stick welder.... I have one of these too (!) and all the kit (!!) [IMG]
Yes, I'm starting to come to the same conclusion - especially since I have a really good Kemppi TIG/stick. I think the multi purchase is off the...
Yes, you are saying what I suspect: Once I start TIGing, I'll never look back Plus the fact that the Kemppi is a real keeper and not that...
I totally forgot about buying used from a welding shop that does repairs. I had purchased an Airco TIG and a Hobart gasoline welder which was a...
I could definitely live with that since that since the MIG and Sawzall are used THE MOST. Here are my 3 stacks of welders: [img] TENTATIVE...
The only thing that "needs" upgrading is the Astro MIG - while not a Chicago Electric, it is a "solid" Italian Job (LOL). I'd really like a new...
I'm 70 and starting to downsize, scale down project. AND I have NO ROOM. I've been focusing on upgrading equipment and it occurred to me I might...
