New boat with gas leak

Put a deposit down on a boat that was made to order (140k + price range). I was set to close on it tmrw and found out while the manufacturer was filling it with gas it leaks gas. They are currently trying to figure out where the leak is. I don’t have a whole confidence in this type of situation. I went with this builder because they were supposed to be good, but clearly they have some major issues here. Is this a sign to just back out? Or would you proceed and pay full price still? Wife and I will have two young kids and a baby on board so a brand new boat leaking gas isnt really confidence inspiring.

Feedback on m285 inhull/shoot through transducers

Does anybody have experience with the M285 in hull / shoot through type of transducer? I was thinking about going with this in combination with a transom mount instead of using through hulls. based on my reading other forms, they seem to perform well, but I’m looking for more feedback if possible on them. Thanks

What’s the point in thru hull transducers for the average person if in hull work well?

i’m building a new twin engine center console boat. I was going to go with the MFG standard install which is a b75m. after doing some reading, it sounds like the M285 inhull/shoot thru performs extremely well. what is the point of putting a three or (4 inch hole for the 1K transducers) in your boat if you can just shoot through the hull reasonably well? Most guys are running an additional transom mount either way so I can get my temperature from that. Thanks

How to enter diagnostic mode on fridge/freezer

probably a stupid question, but I need to enter diagnostic mode on my fridge/freezer. If I hold the freezer minus and + simultaneously, the thing powers off completely. I circled in red the + and - I am holding. I tried it two or three times and every time the whole fridge and freezer just powers off.

How to replace thermistor on fridge/freezer lfhg2251tf6

I have a french door fridge/freezer model lfhg2251tf6. The evap coils keep freezing over. only thing left to replace is the thermistor and main control panel. Is this the defrost thermistor circled in red? If so, it’s connected to the copper tubing. How the heck do you remove it from the copper tubing ? It looks like the tubing slides through the connector during assembly.

Freezing evaporation coils in freezer, tried several things with no luck.

lfhg2251tf6 frigidair top/bottom fridge/freezer. Freezer evap coils are freezing which results in fridge becoming warm. Evap fan works, I replaced the defrost thermostat and the defrost heater shows 26ohms of resistance. I cleaned under the appliance as well. Freezer door seal might have tiny gap in it, but it always did and this problem is new. What the heck do I do next? Evap coils freeze over within a few days of defrosting them. Thanks!

How long is yellow mucus out of nose, normal after antibiotic?

I had a sinus infection after a cold that lingered for three weeks. This is the first time in my life, dealing with this. I took seven days of Augmentin and my mucus changed to clear. i’m now three days after finishing the antibiotic and occasionally I’m blowing some yellow colored my nose again now today. i’m just concerned because it was clear and now it’s a little yellow. does this mean it’s coming back or could it just be residual yellow stuff?

First sinus infection

42m. Needed antibiotics for the first time in my life due to a sinus infection I had for 3 weeks. Drainage down back of throat has gone from thick yellow to thick white after 7 day course of Augmentin. Does the shift from yellow to white typical indicate you’ll be in the clear now and it should resolve? Infection came after a nasty virus.

Invisalign for 8 year old due to overbite/airway obstruction?

My 8 year old snores and is sometimes tired. we have been wondering if he has some airway obstruction. We took him to an orthodontist who recommended Invisalign due to his overbite and anatomy. Is invisalign really a reasonable way to go for this concern? I was alternatively reading about expanders. Also wondering if we should just consult an ENT first. Thanks for any advice.

Antibiotic for lingering sinus infection 3 weeks

42 male. 6'2 190lbs. Non smoker / non drinker. Workout 6 days week, eat clean. I had flu like symptoms for 4-5 days followed by an extremely sore throat and congestion for a week with horrible looking yellow sinus discharge when blowing my nose. NP offered augmentin but knowing most things are viral I decided to ride it out. I'm now on week 3, I have no sinus pressure and nothing comes out when I blow my nose. But I still have lots of yellow mucus draining down the back of my throat when I look in the mirror. It is still causing throat irritation/scratchy throat. Worst part is I believe it's the driving factor behind this linger cough which is keeping me up all night. Would you take the augmentin at this point? Everyday I tell myself "i'll wait until tomorrow" since i'm not in horrible shape. But the last 20-30% of this doesn't seem to be clearing up and I have little kids and a demanding job and it's wearing me thin. Don't want to take antibiotic for no reason though. Thanks!
