SOURCE: oil leak

It is a t-60 torx bit. When you buy it make sure you can get it out of the socket.I've change two and the space is very limited. Put torx bit on and use a wrench to turn the bit.(if it comes out of the socket it the body is shaped like a bolt). Dealer has the gasket kit $5.

SOURCE: Makita MAC5200 Compressor. Leaks

There are two types of regulators used. One has a rubber diaphram sealed at perimeter with body and a piston type. Most likely you have the piston type. Remove body containing piston/ spring mech. Examine piston lip seal. Lip will face toward body of reg. and must fit snugly into cylinder. Make sure cylinder is smooth and is well lubed.
If seal/piston fits loose remove seal and wrap some teflon tape in groove and re-install lip seal /test for snug fit. Notice small metal actuator extending from center of reg. , if it is circular (about 1/8 dia) then there should be an oring of the same size mated/fit into the piston. If this oring is missing it will leak as you describe. Lastly, there should be a gasket or oring sealing outer shell to body. If you have diaphragm type look for holes, tear or shrink too small. Parts are at www.toolpartsdirect.com or Lowes in the plumbing department good place for orings and silicone lube. Good luck

SOURCE: I recently rebuilt the fuel

So long as gravity is in play with the fuel petcock it will work in any way.
Does fuel go through the line before the carbs?
If so then the floats or the float pin has a problem.
Check by removing the float bowl cover and check the bowl floats for movement.
A in line filter will help stop future problems,If you need to clean the needle jet try a guitar string or a piece of un-wound copper wire to clean it up.

Proper installation of Hobart A200 oil seal

Watch the videos and see if you did it correctly. The oil seal is tight in its seat so it can't be off centre. The best thing for bedding seals is a hydraulic press and a large socket.

Removal an reinstall injector pump on 2002 f250 mwm sprint 4.2 litre engine

There's not a whole lot that needs to be said about this particular question - it's pretty straightforward. In order for you to remove and reinstall the injector pump on your 2002 Ford F250 MWM Sprint 4.2L engine, you'll need the following tools and supplies:
-A wrench set
-Extension cord
-Jack
-Hammer
-Socket set
-Plyer hammer
-Torque wrench
-Phillips screwdriver
-Socket extension (if needed)
-New injector pump (if needed)
-Radiator hoses (if needed)
There are a few different ways that you could go about removing and reinstalling an injector pump on a 2002 Ford F250 MWM Sprint 4.2L engine. The most direct and simple route would be to remove the entire engine and replace the pump assembly. Alternately, you could remove just the pump and install it in a new location. In either case, it is important to replace the gaskets, seals, and o-rings as they will likely have deteriorated over time.

Triumph sprint st 1995 wont idle,getting good spark, inside of tank painted brown! is this common? problem started with just riding along and the engine would stop, wait a few minutes start and off you...

Try changing your spark plugs, I have recently had a similar problem with a CBR900, spark plugs seemed to be fine (held against frame outside of engine) but didn't actually work under compression, changed for new and bike now runs like a dream.

I cannot plug any divice.

Hi,

The laptop is too old for Windows 7 to be installed onto it. Windows 98 will need the USB 2 drivers installed before you can plug a USB 2 drive in and have it recognized.

My advice to you would be to upgrade Windows 98 to Windows XP, then you will have an up to date computer.


Regards.
