What is most common to cause AC to short cycle? Worked fine yesterday

Started her up today and the ac is short cycling, I put my guage and it’s the same exact Freon level it was 2 months ago when I checked it. Ignore the green no she’s not leaking.

My rear end is bad and I don’t want another 10 bolt

I’m about to swap axles, I have used axles of all OBS types available to me. I have a 5 lug 10 bolt and would like to upgrade to a 14 bolt. What am I looking for? Is it plug and play?

Can I sharpen a pair of strippers I’ve had since I was 14?

I found my strippers that are over a decade old, my first tool when I was getting into electrical. They don’t strip or cut very well anymore as I seriously misused them when I was younger, I just landed a nice Journeyman position wiring elevators and would like to refurb these, has anyone done something similar?

Edit, I have plenty of different pairs, I would just like to be able to use this pair again.

97 1500 10 bolt to 12 bolt, possible?

My truck has had a whiny rear end since I got her forever ago, but she isn’t whining anymore and is screaming which is worsened by the temps warming up.

My buddy has a rear end 3.83 2500 12 bolt from a 94 burb , I have a 10 bolt (I think 3.42) 97 Silverado 1500. Is this a direct swap? Thank you.

Cannot get flywheel off I just installed with less than 15min of run time B&S 17.5

I recently replaced my flywheel after the magnets flew off , first ride she was leaking oil and it’s because of a hole in the block under the flywheel where the old stator broke off.

I cannot get the flywheel off I beat it for hours and soaked with PB for days. The old one that was on there for years came off with ease. It kinda looks like the key is binded, any suggestions?

Flywheel/Stator magnet destruction puts hole in engine block B&S 17.5

I recently made a post about my flywheel magents coming off. I replaced the stator and got a used flywheel. One of the post/mounts that the stator bolts into broke off.

I installed the stator with 3 bolts instead of 4. Starts up but noticed it was leaking oil BAD. I did not realize that hole was straight into the crankcase. It’s also got a really really low idle now to the point the blades barely spin to speed and come to a dead stop in thick grass (belt is not slipping or I don’t smell/hear it like I normally would when it slips at least.

JB weld slow cure? Would this hole cause my low idle issue? I attempted to put a new carb but it ran like sht surging and backfiring and could not get it tuned right so I put the old one back on.
