TSC often has Delvac 1 in 2.5 gallon jugs, the price recently went up to $56/gal which is pretty cheap for good oil. -Curt On Monday, April 4, 2022, 11:28:13 AM EDT, Kaleb Striplin via Mercedes wrote: I have not looked but Walmart shows t6 in stock at the local store. Was going to grab

I’ve only been in one a couple of times, and while there is a broad range of stuff there, I wasn’t impressed. As for oil, I noticed the local NAPA had “We’ve got Rotella” on their sign yesterday. -D > On Apr 4, 2022, at 6:27 AM, Curt Raymond via Mercedes > wrote: > > I've never seen them

I've never seen them sell more than pellet guns/ammo. Gun safes though. I'm personally not a TSC fan, it's one of those places that almost never has what I want. If they normally carry the item it'll inevitably be out of stock when I'm there. Their off brand tools are JUNK, I've regretted

As far as I know the lifetime warranty was for Craftsman hand tools only. Power tools, and probably battery chargers would only have a limited time warranty (probably 1 or 2 years). On Sun, Apr 3, 2022, at 9:08 PM, Andrew Strasfogel via Mercedes wrote: > Take it to the local mall. Sears has a

Very little to go wrong on one of those, it can be serviced and kept going indefinitely. Most likely problem is a bad connection, particularly inside the switch. (I.e. dirty switch.) It's nice to have a 'dumb' charger like this around, for when your newer, 'smarter' chargers simply refuse to

just makes a faint humming sound and puts out no current. Diode? If the humming is 'normal' level it would be something like that. So long as it isn't the transformer you could probably fix it easily. -- Jim ___ http://www.okiebenz.com To search list
