What is causing this?

The battery is damaging itself in the Ridgid R8640 oscillating tool.

Is this just damaging itself from vibrations? Seems like the tool and the battery body is chaffing against each other. Is this normal?

Hello everyone.

Is it possible to ethanol free gas anymore? Chevron’s highest grade used to be ethanol free, and was my go to, but now their 94 appears to contain some ethanol.

I have a lawnmower that runs fine, but the carb is super sensitive and gets clogged with ethanol if you look at it wrong. This means I have to tear it apart and basically clean the entire thing. The only alternative I can find is Aspen 4, but that comes out to over $8 a litre and can only be found at power equipment stores. I’d switch to electric but don’t want to throw out a mower that still works perfectly.

Thank you!
