I was losing power steering fluid and found that it was a bad seal within the brake booster. I don’t remember any strange noises. Just the usual sounds power steering makes when fluid is low.

Did you have to get your brake pedal position sensor recalibrated? It has my brake lights on all the time and I can't get into a shop to have them do it for another week. I wish I knew the cheapest scan tool that would let me do it myself. I don't want to drive with my brake light on constantly looking like a dumb....dumb.

@fixcreateexplore
@fixcreateexplore 11 ай бұрын
Hello Maggie. Without knowing the specifics of your water feature, I can only offer some suggestions. If installation instructions were not included try googling the make or model for more info. Usually these features have some type of mounts on the back to hang on lag bolts that are drilled into studs. The heavier ones could also require an extra support shelf to sit on. I know it’s not much but I hope it helps. You got this! 😁

Is it water proof? I’m building a fountain in my back yard and don’t know what to use
@fixcreateexplore
@fixcreateexplore Жыл бұрын
It leaks water slowly into the surrounding planter so I have to top it off every 3-4 days in the summer. I believe I lose some to evaporation and wildlife as well since temperatures are sitting around 100-110F. The stone of the fountain itself also soaks in some of the water. I’ve been happy with topping it off occasionally and I feel like the only thing I could have done to make it more leak resistant is to apply something similar to what they use in pools. Hope that helps with your build. 😁

Did you take note of the electrolytic polarity markings? I had several inverter generators, different brand but probably from the same factory, that each failed with similar symptoms right at the 20 hour mark. They were warranty replacements so I never found the exact cause but speculated that a reversed capacitor in the CDI would start to fail at about this time frame

Alright so I will give the feedback as a guy who essentially only watches KZbin. You can ask K. It’s all I watch. So first your voice is excellent. Calm and confident I like it. Two I like the comments on the screen. They are funny and make it personal. As the negative goes. Do one orientation on the camera. When it cuts off on the side and does black is really noticeable after having a wide screen. Two tell us what you like and don’t like. I am not sure what you are going for with the channel but telling us what you like about the color texture and durability would be awesome. And I know you covered it briefly at the end but I think some more would be awesome!

Thanks Caleb for your straight forward review! I realized my mistake with screen orientation halfway through filming and tried to edit it out with adobe rush. Unfortunately, after my first upload to KZbin I found that some of the focus areas were out of frame so I just used the original format on the current video. I will keep that in mind next time I use my camera phone for video! I will also work on giving more feedback about the parts or products I present in the videos. Thanks for checking out the channel!
