    Hole in the Rock parking?

    I know the this trail has been much discussed, but I have one more question... My wife's family does a Lake Powell house boat trip every summer and we're going this year. I have always wanted to do the Hole in the Rock trail and now that I live over 1000 miles from the trail it seems logical to...

    Collecting money from a business...

    I recently (about 6 months ago) bought a rebuilt engine from a guy in California with a $350 core charge. I sent him my core three months ago and he wont send me my core charge or even an invoice for the purchase. He keeps saying I sent it or I will send it, but bottom line nothing has shown...

    TOYOTA electrical part

    I need the end of this plug shown in the photo circled in red. It is broken and doesn't always make contact. All I need is the connector and enough wire to splice it in. Thanks!

    Harbor Freight Tools

    Harbor Freight Tools just opened not too far away here in Logan and I got to thinking how hit and miss their tools are. What have you found to work good and what should everyone be warned to avoid? I'll start the list with things I have experience with. Good: Chicago Electric router...

    22RE -- Runs, burns oil bad

    In a couple weeks I'll be pulling my oil burning 22RE. Last oil change (2700 miles) it burned about 3 quarts. Since then the amount of smoke seems to have doubled, but it hasn't been that long so I don't know how much worse it is. Anyhow, if someone wanted it for about the core charge it...

    Toyota t-case cross member

    I gave my t-case cross member a good thwack in Moab this weekend and now I'm looking for a new one. Does anyone know of a good cheap one or have picture of one they built to give me ideas. Thanks!

    MBA

    Has anyone on here done an MBA online? I'm thinking if I could do it online, part-time while I work full-time it might be worthwhile. Any thoughts/suggestions? Thanks!

    Impact wrench

    My wife got me an impact wrench and I am trying to figure out why it doesn't perform too well. It says it does 350 ft/lbs, but it seems to only torque lug nuts to about 80. What is the limiting factor with a small air compressor? Does low CFM mean low mean more wait time or less torque? Is...

    Providence Canyon -- Saturday Nov. 6th

    Gotta do a trip up Prov. every fall! This year is a little late, because fall seems to have arrived late too. Last few years there has been a really good turn out (15+) and it has been a lot of fun. Probably leave Macey's at 9:00am.

    HVAC guys, furnace question...

    When my furnace thinks it should come on it just makes a clicking sound but nothing happens. I cleaned the flame sensor and that didn't help. What else should I try? The internet doesn't have much on how to trouble shoot/fix your furnace.

    Southern Idaho ???

    I rode a trail in Southern Idaho a few years ago and I can't remember where exactly it was or what it was called. It was just north of the border on the east side of I-15. I'd really like to ride it but I can't remember where it was or what it was called. It was a loop that climbs up to a...

    Toyota cutting out -- again.

    A few months ago my Toyota ('85 w/22RE) was cutting out under heavy throttle. I replaced the fuel filter and spark plug wires and it stopped. Now, a few months later, I have the opposite problem. It runs just fine with 1/4 throttle or more but misses and dies at idle or low throttle. I...

    Collection agencies

    I've had my cell phone for about 5 years and the whole time I keep getting calls from collection agencies. They were every few months but lately the are coming more and more frequently. I tell them I don't know the person they are calling for. The call over and over for about a week then they...

    Synthetic winchrope

    Will using a roller fairlead really ruin a synthetic line, or is that just a ploy to get you to buy more stuff?

    Does anyone in Logan have...

    This may seem like a strange request, but does anyone in Logan have an '84-88 SR5 Toyota Pickup that I could take a couple pictures of the tailgate and make some measurements? I am having all the body work done and I want to have the SR5 sticker made that goes on the tailgate so it looks less...

    Small air compressor

    I'm in the market for a small air compressor. My house doesn't have a garage, so I"m pretty limited as far as size is concerned. The main uses would be running a finish nailer and air up tires. Here are my top two considerations...

    Shower drain

    A question for the plumbers on this forum... My house is built on a slab and the previous owner put in a new shower and and just positioned the drain in the shower over the drain in the floor, but did not actually connect anything. Now if water comes out of the shower any bit faster than the...

    Finger tip amputation! -- view with caution

    So, has anyone on here amputated a finger tip? I got my right ring finger between the fingernail and the knuckle. Most of the bone is still intact and sticking out in a peculiar fashion. Smashed it between a big log and the edge of my trailer. Because it not a clean cut, rather a smash they...

    Pad heaters

    I originally posted this in the ATV section, but it's more of a general heating physics question. What would work best, a 25 watt pad heater permanently glued to the bottom/front of the motor or an inline coolant heater? The pad would be much more convenient and seems to me like it would be...

    Cold blooded Sportsman 600

    I don't have heated storage for my Sportsman 600 and it takes a really long time to warm when it's cold out. Any ideas on what to do? I was thinking of sticking one of those heated battery pads between the frame and the bottom of the motor. I was looking at a 60 watt unit. Any thoughts on...
