I've never heard of being able to buy pads for a single wheel, I'd imagine it's a full axle's worth, ie 4 pads. Unless something's really weird on your vehicle (miata? i forget what all's in your stable)

Boaz MacPhereson posted:I'm looking for brake rotors that don't suck, won't rust like a motherfucker, and won't cost me a hundred bucks a rotor. Any of you fine gentlemen have any suggestions? Are Raybestos worth a drat anymore? For a 2000 camaro by the way. Well, if you don't want rust, you're SOL with any rotors made of iron, aka the vast majority of them. You could get ceramic rotors; those definitely won't be a hundred bucks each.  Honestly, stopping power is mostly in the pads and hydraulics, rotors are just a heat sink. Maybe get slotted rotors if you wanna get fancy. Are you having any specific brake issues?

ughhhhhhh First really hot day of the year (got up to like 97 with 50% humidity) and now the loving house A/C is acting up. Compressor seems to be running, "Cool On" indicator on the thermostat lights up (but eventually starts flashing, which worries me) and the air handler gets cold, but the fan won't kick on, even when set to "on" instead of "auto". This is a whole new A/C system; the whole refrigeration system, air handler and thermostat were replaced last year, including a new, larger condenser assembly (for whatever new refrigerant they're phasing in). I also found out today that it has a re-usable mesh type filter; we cleaned it and just reinstalled it, no change so far. Hopefully something's not hosed up.

Geirskogul posted:I'm going to build one of those 5 gallon bucket swamp coolers for my beetle. Bad idea or worst idea? I think a high CFM 120mm fan, a 12v pond pump, and a bucket with some holes drilled in it is worth an afternoon of my time. Do it, you're in a dry climate, right? I'd kill for one just for simplicity's sake, but they don't loving working when it's 60% humidity for the entire hot season (April to early January)

There's usually a status LED somewhere on the control board, and whatever panel you have to remove from the air handler to get to it will have a chart showing what blinks mean what. On most units I've had, it's whatever panel you remove to get to the blower.

Addendum to last night: gently caress waking up on 4 hours' sleep for a drat baby shower.

I was gonna say professional musicians' gigs are really important seeing as it's how they get paid, and at least they're not content with overloading the stock hitch, but it seems like they've been around for a while and should at least have the cash to deal with major stuff like that.

mafoose posted:I remember reading an article about how venting helps women release stress, yet venting causes men to stress, especially if work related. Similarly, I don't know if it was a study or just someone saying it, but I remember reading that when venting, women tend to be looking for emotional support and sympathy, whereas men are inclined to want and/or offer logical solutions. Mismatched signals and desires, leads to misunderstandings and hurt feelings. Disclaimer that not all people fit their gender stereotype, etc.

Sinestro posted:I just got my M52 delivered for my swap, and the A/C compressor is uncapped and open to the air. It's been like that for about a week, according to the guy at the junkyard. Thankfully, it still spins very smoothly and I can feel pressure when I spin it. It's only been at most 30% humidity for the last while, so it might be OK, right? The compressor shouldn't be hurt from being open to the air, just remember to add oil to the system, vacuum it down for a while to dry everything out, and replace the drier/accumulator before charging the system. If it bolts to the same spot on both engines, you can just use the one from the old motor. There's an A/C thread somewhere on here, too. Read that.

Super Aggro Crag posted:So I discovered Fruit Loops vodka. Wait til you discover the rest of the world of infused liquors. I made raisin vodka a while back that was fantastic; strong, sweet grape flavor, but without any water diluting it like fresh grapes would. And then there's the savory infusions; there's a tex-mex chain called Chuy's that serves cocktails made with jalepeno tequila.
