Some times an encounter with the right party can teach these experts to keep their trap closed. Many years ago a box truck hit a power pole in the alley where I worked. There was sparks and smoke 50 yards in all directions from truck and 30 feet in air. Understandably the driver was freaking...

Just to give you one more thing to worry about, accidently causing a short when wrench bridges between post and metal causes as many explosions and fires as hooking cables backwards. One poor fella had wrench against gold watch band when band made contact with metal. People used to wear...

Keep this up and you can change your handle to "Cutting Out Paper Dolls With Scissors"

Between draught and high demand for municipal water, lakes across Texas have dropped. Folks with private boat docks are upset lake level dropped leaving boats high and dry. With consistent triple digits hvac contractors naming their price and still 5 days to a week behind. Fresh out of...

Texas has been/is in triple digits and needing rain. Adding to usual problems,homes on a strip of black clay laying between central and east Texas are ripped apart as soil dries then receives moisture. It's caused by shrink-swell cycle. Ground has cracks 2" and will grow to 4" soon...

Maybe it's the heat,lack of rain or both but sure wish someone would do something stup,,,, ,interesting so we have something to talk about. :(

That's what lots of pipe welds spec so it must be good.

That type damage often happens while mowing someone else's property that isn't supposed to have anything hidden in weeds. It can be worse. Neighbor hit a high pressure natural gas line. Utility company estimated cu ft gas that escaped and billed my neighbor along with cost of repairing line.

There's hope for ageing gardeners. Here's what I did. When walk behind tiller started getting difficult to handle, I started building hugelkultur mounds and beds. Your fel will be a life saver while building and later on when replenishing soil/compost. Only tool required after...

The answer lies in the fact that once ground is tore up, rows made and crops planted (all of which can be done while sitting on the back of little beasts) weeds begin appearing. Heaviest weed growth is late Spring into mid-Summer (right now). You can stir soil between rows with beastie to...

I have one of those that saves getting accidently shocked like the old days when I held wire near metal looking for spark. Works great but I found something you should know about while using it. 9 hp chipper -shredder w/Tecumseh sputtered and died much like out of fuel. Plenty fuel in tank so I...

I'm not going to say B&S never built Inteck engines that didn't have a pump but I've owned several and worked on several more all of which had pumps of one type or another. What you describe sure sounds like defective pump/ruptured diaphragm. I suggest you look again for a pump.

Oh mighty orange tractor lady,give us a comprehensive vison of this tractor's ac. I'm sorry but mighty OT lady's multi-meter isn't working today so amplifiers and controllers aren't in the wheelhouse. You might want to use your meter to find where ground is taking a wrong turn.

And if you don't find one blown,check them again.

When I first saw this I figured RWS was posting under an assumed name. When I got to the part where engine smoked a bit and died I knew it wasn't RWS. Had it been it would have looked like a Forth Of July celebration, complete with grand🌠🎆🌅🎡🚀🏵🌜💫🔥💥✨🌩⛈🌦 finally.,,,,,,,,,,,,in the basement no less.
