    What Is This Tool?

    It's quite simple, just works differently than what you'd expect. The blade actually holds the tool together. The solid arbor rod threads into its handle. This allows extension/retraction of the rod. When inserted into the hollow (slot) tube with a blade in place, the arbor rod compresses...

    What Is This Tool?

    It's actually a gasket scraper. :nuts: I bought mine decades ago when I was wrenchin for a livin. Like the pic shows in the link, different width blades can be used which makes it a tad more versatile and you can offset mount them for tight locations. Assemble the 2 pc handle, place the blade...

    trying to buy a c/d player for my 97 firebird and have a question

    Need Some Wiring Help Please

    I agree. Wiring can be spliced, one wire at a time if you wish. I like to solder my connections when possible. Remove old wire from all casings and harness wrap, cut it out leaving accessible splice tails at each end. Replace with same gauge & length. You'll save yourself some $$ vs. a new...

    Effing Microsoft

    The wifes new 'puter came with Win 8. Hate it, what a joke. Looks like they're trying the one-software-fits-all for phones, puters and tablets. I'm still runnin Win XP. Stable, no probs. And best of all, I tell it what to do, not the other way around.

    GM heads and intake.
