The Joys of Plastic Parts.
Переглядів 2422 місяці тому
One of the things about plastic parts in some areas is the way they hold up over time. On the 2016 Jenn Air dishwasher here one of said parts recently broke. It is about 8 years old now, so MAYBE not the worst, but I feel it could have lasted longer. You can see more details about it in the video.
Heavy Winds Came By Again.

Marathon Poster. Christmas Present!
Переглядів 1626 місяців тому
An awesome Christmas present from my brother! It is a poster of Bungie's Marathon. A game that was originally released by them in late 1994, and still being played today! It originally came rolled up in a tube, and trying to show that would be next to impossible, so here it is all framed! Some other Marathon stuff I had received from another: ua-cam.com/video/XtrhE18aSN4/v-deo.html

This is Why Cars Should Have a Temperature Gauge!
Переглядів 1,3 тис.10 місяців тому
Ever since 2014, I have seen some newer cars not have one, and that has to be one of the worst ideas ever. Today I took a drive with the 1998 Honda and noticed the temperature gauge in this car was fluctuating. Pay attention to your gauges, they are there for a reason!
Checking Over the Generac Generator.

Now that the generator is a few years old, I figure now would be a good time to check over some parts of it. I am already planning to change the oil in it this year, but there are other parts that should be checked too.

*Update!* Brookstone Weather Forecaster Still Works!
Lost your sunglasses? See in California, that'll cost you $500! The bigger question is, how did you lose them in the first place? The answer is simple: _You're just not focusing, Sharkie!_ I will say, Sharks do look pretty cool with sunglasses, like the "Would you like to try a combo meal" thermometer shark in my pool! How did the sunglasses stay? The physics tell me that the aerodynamics of the car kept them in place. While yes, there is plenty of air that flows through under the hood, there's a tremendous amount more air that flows over the vehicle. While indeed you did get lucky, I think the physics were actually on your side with that. That's yet another lucky break you've gotten. I hope this streak doesn't run out, but by the same token, I could use some around here!
I have the exact same unit, just mine is all white. It intermittently stops pumping and fills its bucket. I have cleaned out the filter, checked the drain hose (tubing). All is well, but it just likes to stop pumping randomly. If anyone has any other tips, please let me know.
Thank you so much for your detailed instructions. Really appreciate it!!
Hey not a problem! Glad I could help ya!
Things happen when misplaced the item and thinking it was missing and can't find one for what I need to use, and then the item appeared unexpectedly and wondering how did it happen and realized that the item is placed without knowing it and forgot about it. It just so happens when we have tendency to misplaced the items without knowing where we put the items away and getting lost, and then found the items and dumbfounded ourselves and found out why did we keep forgetting the items and misplacing it. Sometimes, we didn't think that we placed the item somewhere and thought it was there where we left it in the right place, and instead, it is in a different place without realizing it.
I can tell you one thing, I'm definitely not making that mistake again!
Can you post a short of your garage door openers?
I'm not really into the whole Shorts videos.
I’ve lost dozens of sunglasses simply by putting them in random places I wouldn’t think of. I’m glad I’m not alone here! The best thing to do I’ve learned is to find a home for the sunglasses and put them in that spot away when not in use. I like to keep them in the center box of my car. This one time, my extended family and I were traveling a couple years back. On the bus, we were talking about how his $180 pair of sunglasses were superior in quality compared to my uncles. He tried them on and liked them. The cousin says, “you should consider buying these and stop settling for mediocre”. I then reply, “what if you loose them?” Better yet, imagine pulling off a stunt like you did here, but this time they won’t retain. I typically won’t spend more than $20 if they are a replacement pair, unless you are good at keeping track of them, of course.
Oh yeah I hear ya. Normally when I am done using the sunglasses, I always put them back in the center compartment of the car. THis time I got lazy, but thankfully I did not pay the price for it. I might not be as lucky next time!
That’s amazing that you found them there and that they are in good condition!
Tell me about it. Those are like crazy odds I managed to beat.
My Parents house has Maytag Washer and Dryer because my parents Maytag Washer and Dryer are ten year warren-tine appliances if it has to be serviced or repaired in later life so my parents don't have to charge for anymore Washer's or Dryer's and it does a really good job whatever loads my parents and I use like Bath towel's Washcloth's,Hand towel's,Clothing,Shower curtain liner's,and bedding spreads and sheet's.🙂🙂.
Great video, helped immensely
Just got mine today will try it out at dinner time
Excellent instructions, and thanks for saving us DIYers some $$$. Also discovered that you don't have to pull the center unit completely off the main body (chassis), just high enough to clear the wheels and remove them. This way, you don't have to struggle with putting the center unit back onto the chassis.
Hey no problem! Yeah I did hear about some alternatives to this, though i do feel as annoying as it can be to get that off, it does give ya better accessibility.
They still have analog meters? 😮
That they do!
Thanks friend ! Sound like Ray Romano 🤙
Haha, I do get that a lot!
Thank you so much. I have never watched a clearer tutorial. I shudder to imagine what a repair service would have charged for the $5.99 agitator dogs my Amazon points paid for. You're the best. PS: I'm 70 (F). My husband didn't even question me when I asked if he had a longer ratchet extension than my set had. 😂 😂😂😂😂
Haha you're very welcome! Husband/Wife banter can indeed be quite funny!
Followed these steps and replaced mine, great video! Thanks.
Hey anytime!
Hope you’ve moved out of your moms by now :p lol
Everybody Loves Raymond does AC repair😁. Nice vid. You explained it well. Thanks for sharing
I can hear the fan on the motor, as well as a loud snap when the drain solenoid engages
Thank you so much! 💓
My parents had it without the time stamp button
I am not mechanically inclined and I personally perform few home repairs. This Polaris belt replacement “how to” video is clear and EZ to follow. I recommend watching it all the way through before beginning your project. Make sure you have the 3 tools mentioned in the video - flat head screwdriver, phillips head screwdriver, and a needle nose pliers - on hand before you start. Thank you!
Glad this helped you! One of the things I love to do in these video is give as many details as possible. It can only help!
2:05 It’s all over, drain all the water and the towels, and throw out the machine and replace it with a millenniwasher.
The inside looks like an LG top loader
What is the part of the machine that the water comes out of called? Mine is broken loose and hanging into the middle.
Thank you so much! Such a great video! Haha that 500 dollar joke in California I remember that from the video of the sprinkler system at the Long Island house. Back then it would be 500 dollars but nowadays it would probably cost you 5,000 dollars 😂
What brand is the evaporator itself?
Beautiful home. What do you do for a living?
That was perfect. Thanks man! Had to change my oil out after Hurricane Beryl. 👊💯
Did you use the Generac Branded Oil? Ours runs off of NG ( natural gas ). Beryl had ours running for a good 12 hours solid.
I wanted to thank you for making it so easy to understand. In the middled of our power being out we fixed the issue quickly and w/o any issues, which rarely happens with me.
Glad I could help ya!
Subbed. Interesting topics and I like your clear style. Varied interests too, cool. Thanks!
Thanks I appreciate that!
Thank you for this video, my wife and I just recently moved into an apartment with a squeaky washer and after watching your video our problems are fixed! Didn't have to schedule a maintenance call or anything (that may had never come)
There ya go! Now ya got a perfectly working washer again!
Thank you so much for your very easy-to-follow directions. I appreciate that you showed me where the main circuit breaker is located and what it looks like. I also appreciated the reminder to turn off the ACs and all the steps really. You pointed out so many helpful details, like reminding us that when we shut off the main house circuit breaker, there will be zero electricity. That tip was invaluable because I wouldn’t have thought to bring a flashlight with me otherwise. Your video was exceptionally well thought out, and I cannot thank you enough! I feel empowered now. I was concerned that I would not be able to do this, and my owner’s manual was very confusing. Thank you again! Veronica
Anytime Veronica! In many videos like these, people skimp out on so many details, I always try to leave them in, that way it covers all bases.
I got quoted 485. Guess who's not paying that 😂
Yeah forget that!
Thank you for this video very helpful
You are very welcome!
But I’m not saying it’s bad it’s good! Not trying to be mean but that’s a good start up
My kenmore is better then that it even has a Copeland scrool and sounds much much better then that
I wish my car got a temp gauge... Mazda cheaped out and at most, only put in a little light that turns off when its at temperature.
Ugh, that's really sad.
Great video and such a nice a calming disposition in your voice man
Thanks for watching, and thanks for that too! :)
I am convinced that NO ONE knows how much oil to put in these things. Is it one quart? Is it three? no one knows
Every model will be different. The manual should give you some info.
Wonderful sprinkler video! Just curious, why was the fourth zone built so close to the property line instead of either more central of the lawn or on the very edge?
Thanks for watching! I'm guessing because it's best to not have the sprinkles RIGHT on the property line, leave some space just in case.
@@Sharkie626 Ah, thanks for clarifying.
14:52 those are Hunter MP rotators
Ah, thanks!
looks very nice, as for neighbors dog part.... i dont like it when they don't fence in their dog because it could get hit by car (luckly he/she is friendly not aggresive towards you or any kids) or do their buisness in your yard.
That dog is actually very nice. He sometimes walks around like that, and it bothers no one! He loves pets. In terms of leaving something on the ground, it has never happened!
@@Sharkie626 thats good
Surprised that the guys didn’t install drip in those plant beds. I’m surprised that the hydrangeas aren’t looking bad.
Yeah everything seems to be covered quite well! It does get a lot of shade actually during the day, so that could be part of it.
@@Sharkie626that’s good. The heads look more leveled. Glad they got rid of the spray nozzle in the backyard and put an mp on it. Your last video on this system I got done helping install the second system I’ve ever been apart of. This is now my last year doing irrigation because I wanted to change careers and work in the jail. I was mostly a service and troubleshooting guy. Just sucks how it’s seasonal where I’m at. This season I just decided to help labor one of my old managers and he became an irrigation tech last year. His other guy got sent on a construction crew.
@@AD-vf3ekthat’s commitment! Good luck
Me personally, I think both rainbird and hunter rotors are great, they have pros that outweigh the others’ cons The nice thing rainbird 5000’s do that the PGJ/PGP/PGP ULTRA/I20’s don’t is you can fan out the spray all the way and still throw the full length as well as slip clutch which is super helpful for adjusting the fixed left stop, I’m pretty sure the only model of hunter rotors you don’t have is the PGJ, those red ones are likely PGP’s even though blue nozzle PGP’s do exist, the blue nozzle ones are most likely PGP ULTRA’s or I20’s, the PGP ULTRA is the upgraded version of the PGP, with features like slotted radius screw adjustment, PC/FC in one model, nonstrippable gear drive, the difference between the PGP ULTRA and I20 is that the I20 has a feature called flo stop which is where you can cut the flow to each individual head in case you got a wet spot, sod that hasn’t been laid, etc, the I20’s do require more water pressure though
Cool info! The Rain Birds do work, but we don't have the tool for them ,and I've had awesome experiences with the Hunters.
@Sharkie626 rain bird 5000s also have a slip clutch which is very convenient.
@@AD-vf3ek oh I forgot to mention that
@@Sharkie626you can get them online or at Lowe’s
When did that crack form in your driveway?
A couple of years ago I would say.
YESSSSSS LETS GO SECOND ONE OF THE DAY The first was dilch productions, an hvac enthusiast from Nebraska, he did his first tour of the system running
Glad I got it for ya!
@@Sharkie626 thank you, I know I’ve said it many times before but I have loads of irrigation content, more than hvac
I changed mine but im still getting fl4 code
THANK YOU!! I watched this video and some others when my AC died with exact symptoms of capacitor failure. I was able to safely diagnose it with a multimeter and replace it thanks in part to your tutorial! Saved me money and misery of waiting three days at 110 degrees!
No problem! Glad it's back up and running! :D
Hard to believe this was 10 years ago. Time really flies.
It's kinda both for me! Like amazing it's been that long, but at the same time it does feel as such. This was a fun video!
@@Sharkie626 Doesn't feel that long to me since I remember very well when this video was brand new. One thing that's not a surprise is the fact this dehumidifier still works perfectly of course.
Ordering one now to have when mine takes a crap. Will this model work for a 2.5 ton 15 seer Carrier?
Your best bet would be to open yours up and see what the ratings are on the cap itself.
