Yeah, I vote for both. Last year, just before the chowaq, I pulled off the

What triggered this was finally collecting 4 perfect NOS wheels that were

One thing about tankless "instant" heaters is that they don't play well

to the parts that are faulting along with "actual values” to see exactly what
and when the faults are occurring. You can also run diagnostics on some

circuit board out of the case and see if it’s full of oil. If so clean it out.
If you replace the conductor plate test the solenoids while you are doing it.

It just dawned on me. Just like the morons on the 123 fakebook group
think they know everything and will not listen to advise, it is the
exact same thing with the 21 year old kid who just graduated from
college with an associates. So he has this girlfriend and they have
decided they want to
Nope. It’s a systemic thing that all generations suffer from. We all thought
our parents were idiots.
I have said that the word “STUPID” is visible on my forehead to them and them
only. As they age and become a little “smarter”, that “STUPID” begins to fade.
For one of my kids it’s pretty much

So I got the connector back in and cleaned that all up. Pulled the TCM
and cleaned the contacts, there might have been a bit of tranny oil in
one of the connectors but I couldn't be sure. Anyway got it all buttoned
