Ladies and Gentlemen, I give you: Rosa Sharts

Well, my AC is busted, so I need to replace the condensor. But I hesitate to use one of those loaner tools at the auto parts stores, because they are abused and they only get like 2-3 CFM. I've read you need at least 5 CFM for a proper job. So, I'm wondering where to get a 5 CFM vacuum pump? The harbor freight pump is a little too pricey for me, especially for a one use tool. Maybe I might do an AC job years from now, IDK. But still.

Like, I get that it was overloaded by the AC. But I don't understand why the AFCI breakers didn't trip first? Anyone theories welcome.

Is there such a thing as a mouse that operates without the need for a flat surface? Like, you'd hold a trigger or button and it would manipulate the mouse cursor on screen.

No, really. Look up states ranked by industrial output per capita and you'll see where American production really is.

5SFE engine is the one I'm doing right now, but the question is more general in nature.

Intake clearance is: .0007" to .0011" exhaust: .011" to .015"

Is optimal clearance in the direct middle like .0009"? Or is .0007" for performance and .0011" reliability? or what?

There's HAYNES 10420 but that was written in 1990. I mean, I'm sure some of the stuff is everygreen, but I need something a little more up to date than that.

The color is right, but I'm concerned about maintaining the surface color after taking severe abuse.

Also, is it necessary to sand between coats? Sometimes I find that it is, depending on the type of stain.

Mostly in the context of staining a floor.

All theories and recommendations welcome.

I'm hearing crimps are better, but to me that only seems like a temporary fix if you're on the side of the road. The main thing people point to saying it's better than soldering, is that soldering can get moisture in and hold it in ruining the joint, but this won't happen if you properly heat shrink the wire.

The other thing people point to is the heat stiffens the wires making them more delicate. But again, with skill and a good iron it won't stiffen the wires.

Maybe it's just because I've only used the clamps they have on wire strippers? But I don't see how you'd get a better connection with ratcheting crimper?
