  1. Took some of the things I learned and transferred them to my sons truck. We have been trying to get rid of my sons 98 Ranger and had no luck do to a number of things wrong with it the biggest being my son told me the clutch was bad. So most would not look at it but one did and when I went for a test drive the brakes were grinding so after the guy left I took it home to change the front pads and while I was under there I saw the bleeder on the clutch slave so I opened it nothing happened so I got out a large syringe like you would inject a turkey with and put some suction on it and it started to fill with black sludge filled the clutch did it again saw a bubble in the sludge then it came clear put it back together and it was good as new. The next guy bought it even though it won't hold power steering fluid and the ball joint are falling apart. Thanks again for the lesson:big-grin-emoticon:

  3. Since I work for Lincoln Electric I have to say Lincoln is the best if you go with the SP100 series the ones at home depot you can use cored wire which is very convenient for most applications just have to get used to dragging like stick but if you want a cleaner weld you can change over to gas shielded very easy on the welders.
