return to the lowest setting on the scale, do not remove all tension on the internal spring. There is a chance that if you back it all the way off the pivot block inside will mis-align. Store at the lowest setting, not "zero".
Perhaps you need to turn *that* torque wrench back to zero, but that’s not true for all torque wrenches. My TekTon torque wrench goes to 250 foot pounds and has instructions stamped into the handle to return it to 25 foot pounds when not in use. Some split beam style wrenches, it simply doesn’t matter as they have no spring inside the tool.
Hey, looking up your content you don’t have anything. I was just curious if you knew how to paint engines or how many you have done at least people try things you know have a great day. I’ll follow you so maybe you can show me how to. Paint an engine.😅
@@christopherchavira6146 I love diy and learning. This is how I did it and it looks good to me. My longer video shows me doing it. With the cost of professional labor I will figure things out 👍
@@christopherchavira6146 I only scroll through RU-vid while I wait for my dogs to sniff out a place to take a dump to answer your question. I’ve worked in the autobody industry for over 45 years have multiple certifications three in paint alone so I see somebody doing something that looks like kids did it in shop class in junior high school I think I have enough experience to make a comment on a crappy video you posted it’s not interesting to me and I’m sure it is not interesting too anybody that knows anything about cars and when you get to the point, we are cleaning off all casting marks and imperfections, and the paint on the motor looks as good as the paint on the fenders, then go make a video and why would I want you to follow me? I don’t need you. I do what I do so don’t get mad when you post a crappy boring video, and somebody makes a comment on it i’m done. My dogs are done and I want you to have a great day.
Maybe stop making videos if youre spreading half-ass information or dont know 100% what youre talking about. You're a part of the problem. Just pump dumb content for views and likes, who cares if the information is accurate. 🙄
@@BiggestLittleTrucks775 tighten the gauge slightly larger than the bore, then rock it thru the bore. It will compress to the diameter of the bore. The way you did it, it might not be perfectly flat in the bore so you could have a few extra thousandths being measured.
You should measure the cylinder at 3 different angles, at 3 different depths, to make sure its not tapered or out of round. Also, that rod looks like it had a spun bearing and shouldnt be reused.
@@BiggestLittleTrucks775they’re worried about the marks inside the big end of the rod. Does look worse then it should. If you feel any grooves or you torque the cap down and it’s larger then spec. You’ll have to get them resized
What did you think it wasn't going to open so what's the purpose of this and why are you making that sound when you open the door l really don't understand why your doing this do you have a fetish with opening truck doors
Would love to have that old truck. More rugged and reliable than anything made today. Grew up in a 76 with a camper, bench seats in the bed and rear sliding glass window. Good times my friend. Shame most of this generation wont grow up with those experiences with older vehicles.
A Martin reports a good start which you’ve already done. I would say trying to find out anything done since the vehicles was produced is going to be difficult.
I tried to do that. The 1 ton cherry picker wouldn’t lift high enough to clear frontend. Also, I am on a slope and I was afraid it would swing into the frontend. Lastly, I am a noob learning 😅 Thanks for watching!
