Re: Cancer/illnesses, and caregiver, support thread

Re: How clean is your top end cylinder head cover ?

The second most common use of a screw driver - poking at things. Third most common use is a dull chisel. volvolugnut Wait, that's #2? What's #1??? #1 Loose engagement with a screw and applying minimal torque. Until it slips and 1) pokes your body or 2) scratches your stuff. :lol: volvolugnuty

Re: seat bolt is halfway stuck

Perhaps you could use a captive nut like this. Cut the floor just large enough to get the captive nut slipped into the opening with the thread at the proper location.
