NW WA Meet / BS Thread

125 in a 25 zone in a 308 GTX
1st of my 2 times in jail

 

A buck 40ish in a 55. Old mustang. My only time so far.

 

It’s a trap if it’s the reality show about those twins and their personal lives. My wife likes it. Might just get her WWE tickets for her bday and see how much she likes it then.

 

Me either.

Then again if I hired a plumber and if he tried to use a compression fitting I'd fire him on the spot.

Ain't no such thang as a 308 GTX.... GTS maybe... but not a GTX...

 

I have a used one for sale. Selling bc it doesnt match the fridge we just bought

Almost exactly like this one, but buttons on the front instead of top and no 3rd shelf.

Anyone interested in a weber smokey mountain 18"? One small dent on the side and 2 little spots on the lid where the enamel flaked off. I have a cover too.

Moving soon and want to consolidate my 3 smokers lol. 80 bucks to TW folks.

 

my dishwasher just exploded all over the kitchen. Im interested

 

Edit: Not funny for you man, was funny in the context of the last dishwasher conversation I read in this thread.

 

Fat thumb
308 gts. My friends dads car went out sober specifically to do a speed run and got busted car impounded his dad freaked.

 

Google oreilly auto parts. Enter 121G in the search bar. Awesome!

 

Looks like they're of stock on the 121GMF upgrade kit

 

The 1997 Tacoma water pump gasket is also a good one https://youtu.be/irmyJQQT2po

 

The Teflon tape and dope does not and is not a sealant. They are just a lubricant for the threads so you can tighten it up right enough to make the seal.

 

Then would you care to explain why (almost) every manufacturer of Teflon tape (in its standard 1/4" or 1/2" wide sizes) and pipe dope states it is for thread sealing (and also a lubricant). Also why the Mil standard that any decent Teflon tape is manufactured to is also stated for use as a sealant (and also lubricant)?

Neolube (graphite/alcohol solution that dries to leave just the graphite) is my go to lube for joints (or fasteners) needing just lubrication. Expensive but goes a long ways. Take more time than other "wet" lubricants though as you have to give it a couple minutes to dry out

 

for propane gas there is a special kind of Teflon tape. look for PTFE Yellow gas tape or something like that. I know i sell 3 different kinds of tape for different applications all still used on pipe thread/NPT.

 

I over research the shit out of everything and this is the conclusion i came to when i had to cap a dead end gas line at the house

 

White, yellow, and pink? Yellow for gases. White for whatever. And pink is just a thicker white pretty much? Or something about size of pipe determines white vs pink? Something like that...I don't use much of the tape outside of air fittings for tools.

 

I haven't looked into it but I've been told that the county I live in (Whatcom) does not allow yellow PTFE tape for gas installations. All I've ever seen in the box stores and local hardware stores is the white stuff. I prefer Rector Seal or liquid PTFE myself, though the tape is handy sometimes.
