Shhhh, reasonable answers not accepted.

Which are the bad jumps?

Don't listen to anyone in this thread, use the tap. Please record it. (Actually interested in wtf happens)

There is other options.

Still have the truck? Wonder if just slapping a new piston in without doing a full rebuild would hold for a while. Did the mechanic note where the leakdown leakage went? Assuming into the block?

Tire lifespan by age varies across manufacturers. Rubber oxidizes over time, and leads to dry rotting, hardening, and delamination. This is a different effect than the tires turning brown when they're in the sun. Former affecting drivability and safety, browning being cosmetic. I wouldn't use...

Climbing gym in the morning + some good headphones work awesome for me.

I don't know if the faucet is anywhere near Allaire, but I have a half dozen 1 inch sockets sitting in a bucket you could have. I could even pre grind it for you. Edit: I think a crows foot would also work pretty well.

Is there any other evidence that its the water pump? This doesn't really sound like a water pump issue to me. Leaks? Steam? Overheating? Noises? Rust/corrosion in the coolant loop? From my 2m research the E60 has an electric water pump. Have any codes been generated for this? As its electric...

Don't know if it's local to you, but I have always had good luck with Joseph Fazzio. They have a location in Howell. They have worked with me before to get me some specific stuff, and did cutting for me. Also going to 3rd the plywood.

Maybe a medium 27.5?

4th'ing on hammering in a torx bit. I have never had an ezout make my life easier in any way.

Cannot recommend this one enough. It is a generic OBD2 reader. Requiring no additional work than the app, you get all the OBD2 PID's, realtime datalogging, custom dash's, freeze frame data, mode 6 data. Will not get you into manufacture specific PIDs for the most part, but there is community...

I know its not a car, but i'm working on a 2001 BMW K1200lt. Its been sitting for 8 years. First issue was the fuel pump, the gas turned to varnish and ate through the fuel pump wire pass-through. $400 bucks for a used ebay fuel pump and the bike is now running. Now there is a new issue. It is...

How I wash my bike in my basement apartment. It doesn't get washed very often.

Where are you located?

Awesome! Anything that pedals better than what I have is a win. Currently have a MaxxGrip Assegi and DHR. What are you looking at in terms of price and where are you/they located?

Would like to test how different the rolling resistance is between XC and more DH oriented tires I currently have. Feel like I am losing lots of time to lugging them around in a race. Hoping someone has some well used XC tires laying around that need another life. Budget is 50ish.

I once poured a gallon of oil in without the drain plug in. I don't think my dad will ever stop giving me shit for it.

I was also once responsible for outfitting a client with a new office setup. One of the perks of that is we were able to standardize all the laptops. Used a usb-c dock that was compatible with all of them, and fed the peripherals into the dock. Super cheap setup, used all off the shelf parts...
