left handed drill bit. start drilling them out and they usually spin out as soon as the bit catches. Something loose would shear them in an instant even more likely when that close to the center of rotation.

Theres aftermarket gauges that fit that hole available. Sometimes you need to bypass the transducer though

I think the worst one I ever witnessed in person was when we vaporized a squirrel. We had an old ballpark that the fixtures were 240 volt but each pole had a transformer to take the incoming 17,200 volt to 240. Coming into the facility it was 32k which we stepped down to 17. We blew a jack on b...

Old job (funny saying that cause I'm on day 6 of the new one) someone plugged a discharge unit into the 650vdc service port (normal procedure) but didn't have the breaker in the open position so it arced and flashed over. It sounded like a shotgun going off. So yes, use brains for their intended...

I custom built mine. The manual says that pin 16 is charge excitation output (makes the battery charging alternator run). what error message do you get?

Sorry, Force of habit. Thats what my 004 has been dubbed by the residents and guests of my home. Mainly due to the size.

I am glad you are in a safe space. Even happier you are prepared. Theres no rule that you cant do a simulated test.

I got one once with an unknown substance in the fuel tank. It was yellowish and when soaked into a white rag, it was like cracking a highlighter open. I am fairly sure it could have been seen from orbit. This is the same set that was full of kittylitter. Turns out the oil drain valve was a...

Make sure you cap off that yellow wire. Good find. Congratulations. Sent from my SM-S908U using Tapatalk
