Just Doing Work.

I have established this channel to develop my skills at filming and editing short videos, and give back to the DIY community on RU-vid that I have leveraged over the years to help with my projects. Although heavily focused on minor maintenance and repairs on vehicles, my aim is to focus more generally on DIY jobs that can be tackled by home-owners, vehicle owners, and more generally on those that endeavour to repair their own things. I will be doing maintenance and repairs on my 2013 Mazda 3, 2012 Nissan Pathfinder, and 2005 Honda Pilot initially, but plan to continue to expand as I eventually sell these vehicles and purchase new ones.
I will continue to ensure that I provide not only information on how I performed the DIY work, but also on costs and savings so others can determine if the effort was worth the savings. Cheers.

The way you clean the throttle body is the wrong way to go. You don't even have to spray the cleaner into the engine, because what you do is spray some of the liquid directly into the engine. You have to completely dismantle the part. And while you're at it, clean the MAF sensor too, which is easier to clean.

I didn'5t really come to pee on your parade, but the DeLonge model actually uses the Invader NECK pickup, not the bridge. They are really both quite different, as the neck has a capacitor built into it which cuts off the deep lows.
@DIYNorth
@DIYNorth 13 часов назад
I was well aware of this theory in advance of doing this pick up exchange. I considered the evidence for each and decided that the bridge pickup was in fact more likely. Fender has re-released the strat and it comes with the bridge version and interviews with Tom's own guitar technician have indicated that it was the bridge pick up that was installed on the guitars that he actually played.

bought this bike off marketplace...took of the front wheel to get into my car...put it back on at home and notice the front tire is touching the curve part of the front fork...and then figured out the reason for the two centre treads to be worn out...how to fix or adjust? I have a video too!

The tire should not come into contact with the fork in the manner you are describing. Is there a chance that there is a 29 inch tire instead of a 27.5 inch tire on the bike?

I battistrada degli pneumatici invernali DEVONO raccogliere neve fra le scolpiture del battistrada!!! E' la neve che fa attrito contro la neve che ne determina la tenuta .
@DIYNorth
@DIYNorth 7 дней назад
È più sfumato di così. Puoi guidare su strade in inverno senza neve, in tal caso avere la neve sui battistrada non migliorerà nulla e potrebbe causare prestazioni peggiori. Fattori importanti sono la capacità della gomma di rimanere morbida e un adeguato disegno del battistrada invernale. La guida invernale presenta una serie di condizioni.

I just spent hours trying to troubleshoot what looks like this problem. My new build was all working with all the components and igpu but I was waiting on my GPU arriving. Plug it and can't get a display or into bios or anything. Unplug it and I can. So I'm going to try this but I'm confused re the driver download. How does the BIOS know whether the drivers are installed? Are you talking about some MSI drivers as opposed to AMD ones? Or somehow AMD drivers included boot information?

@@DIYNorth thanks but I had already tried the latest to try and solve the problems. I can't get past this. I took the riser cable out the equation and same issue. As far as I can tell MSI bios is defective because they literally have a setting to ignore the discrete GPU and when you turn it on it still has problems with the discrete GPU connected then works with it off. If anyone reading this has any idea please let me know. At this point I don't even know if I should send the GPU back or the mobo. It feels like the MSI bios is fully awful and defective

Hi! I have a question I want to buy this amp along with the 1x8 orange cabinet. Can I play high gain stuff at "television volume"?
@DIYNorth
@DIYNorth 9 дней назад
I would say not really. You can play low gain stuff at very reasonable volumes but it does get a bit loud at high gain. It is possible to dial in something reasonable. I think the micro dark has an effects loop and if you went high gain with that and had something that could back the volume down a bit in the effects loop it might be better.
