A Clear Day on East Oahu
From the "Allen Davis" turnout (near Sandy Beach), I could see Kahoolawe, Lanai, The tops of the West Maui mountains, and Molokai.
I hope you can see them too!

1986 4.9 F150 Carburetor replacement
Переглядів 3,3 тис.Рік тому
The new carb, running, after a few simple adjustments. I JUST learned, if you select "safe for kids", UA-cam turns off the comments. Really? So I had to change this to "not safe for kids" (even though it is), just to allow comments. Sorry, I JUST found this out. (someone messaged me seperately and said "you asked for comments, but comments are turned off..."

      Yes - my crotch is in the same place now for 70 years. I also know where the bullet comes out of the gun and how to check for live ammo in the gun before cleaning, repairing or modifying. Would you field strip the gun to make a sight adjustment - NO there’s no need to. If you’re too stupid to know how to check the condition of your firearm before working on it, sell it or bury it. Once again, there is no need to field strip an unloaded gun to perform this routine modification - none.

    Like a lot of AR owners, I'm a tinkerer, and I'm constantly swapping out parts and experimenting. It always annoyed me that swapping stocks, end plates, etc. would result in that detent spring flying out or getting in the way. I tried this yesterday, and the results are great! I wish I'd known about this years ago. It's so easy and really convenient. The tools are cheap, too.

    Hi! Thank you for the video! Was searching the correct procedure for executing NADP1 TO with the 57/67. Could you also select climb thrust or LVL CH (keeping V2+20 in the speed window) at 1500 AGL and then VNAV at 3000 AGL?

    • @EhWassAmattaU
      @EhWassAmattaU Рік тому

      Yes. That would work too. This was to "use all the magic"... (only one "preset", the initial V2+20 climb speed) and letting the VNAV do it's thing. Note, do NOT insert V2+10 as the CLB speed! The ICAO page shows V2+10 only for the first 1000', you will already be at or above 1000' (1500 in this case) when you select VNAV and it references that speed target. The FD (and A/P) will command a pitch up from your FD liftoff target (V2+15 to V2+25) and reduce the thrust from T/O thrust to climb thrust. What happens if you pitch up AND reduce the thrust at the same time? Don't do it!

      You are right, SS and alu will corrode the alu, and a nylon screw would do the job, if you can find a 4-40 nylon set screw. If you put any anti-sieze or even grease on the threads, it will eliminate the galvanic corrosion, so getting stuck won't be a problem.

    Great idea and funny how I found your video......I realized last night that after 15 of tinkering with the AR platform Im def still a newb..lol! I was installing a law tactical side folder and a Vltor A5 buffer set up on a newly SBR'd BAD workhorse. After backing off the castle nut and plate, watching carefully for the pesky spring not to launch.....there was no spring??? The takedown detent/spring hole is threaded and has a tiny screw behind the detent and spring so you dont have to worry about it flying out during disassembly/assembly. I hadnt seen that on any of my other lowers, so of course until looking into it on the BAD site i was on the ground with a flashlight.....what should have queud me in was the takedown pin was functioning fine...anyway live and learn.

    Awesome video. Glad this showed up in my recommended list. I thought of doing this, but didn't know it was actually a thing. I'm gonna have to give it a shot. I have a 47 piece tap and die set, pretty sure that I have the one I need. A dab of grease or Vaseline on the tip of your driver will hold the lil set screw in place. It's a trick that we use in the RC world, and works quite well. You don't wanna slather it on there, just a tiny little bit does the trick. Of course, if you do use too much, it just squirts out around the head of the set screw (grub screw to the RC world) and makes a wee bit of a mess. I also drape a towel or gun mat down, to help cut down on the bouncing.

    😂🤣😂🤣 This video just showed up in my recommended. I thought to myself "Dad and I have been doing this to ARs since I was 10 (I'm currently 36)". I'm glad that this little hack has picked up in popularity. It's very useful. An added benefit is that *IF* you run the tap further in, you can increase or decrease the tension on the spring, which makes the takedown pin looser or tighter to move. Basically it can remove slop from older lowers. Good if your lower is well worn and the pin jiggles unwantedly. Also, with a different sized tap, you can do this to the safety selector as well, keeping the spring contained within the lower instead of housed in the grip. Another small improvement to consider.
