  1. Tobashadow I am not certain I would have got that in there, maybe.  But seem like one of the parts stores would have suggested that when I was looking for a tool to do that. I came home from work on a mission to get it done. 
  2. DONE. Victory is mine. I made my own tool tonight. I took a super china brand socket and cut it down to size for the job. Took the part out, tested it and confirmed it was the problem. 40 dollar replacement, little trouble getting the D shaft inline with the D hole, but all is well. It is working, changing, etc.
  3. I was starting to think that.  Another friend about the time I was thinking it, thought I might be able to put use that to determine if it is moving at all.  If it is moving well that might mean like the video suggest, a different issue.  Seems from what I have seen on the internet views these things strip out on their own which is the cause of this problem.  One of the plastic gears strips and makes the whole thing useless. 
  4. One thing I noticed re-watching the video looks like there might be way to manually turn the arm from the very top right side if I can get something in that hole.  Might be a way to test with out taking it completely out.  I will investigate that tomorrow.
  5. First off, I really don't want to look for a repair shop for this job.     I need to get a screw (8mm) out. Problem is it is in a very tight place. I am including a link to a youtube video to better explain it. Just wondering if there is any that does this kind of work, that doesn't charge  arms and legs. I don't mind to pay but I certainly don't want to pay shop prices. In short, it controls the temperature controls in my 2003 Ford Sport Trac. The part is behind the glove box. 2 screws are easy, one is very difficult to get at. Appears I don't have low profile enough tools for the job. Trying my 1/4 ratchet and my shortest 8mm and I haven't been able to get them to mate up.   (BTW research has lead me to it is either this part or another hard to get to one in the front center console near the gas pedal, however I think I just found different videos of different models for the same job. Mine certainly does have this part that I need to test.)   Last winter heat worked fine.  It has been set to cold all summer. I did check and the hoses leading to and from the firewall are getting hot.  Not a circulation issue.  Also coolant is full. Blower motor no issue and I can control the air flow to all the vents.  I just can't add Heated air to the flow.  AC, works great.  AC off, well it just circulates the current air temp around   This part is really the only thing I can believe the issue is.  I can't find a fuse that would only control it.  2003 Ford Explorer Sport Trac.     I don't mind to pay, just don't want to get ripped off like I know I would at a shop.     https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g-36aM360V8
  6. said they would have give him a ticket and let it be, no way. We have heard of people being arrested for it.  So I don't believe they would have just give him a ticket and let him get on the plane as suggested.
  7. Questions concerning RV/Car Carry Without A Permit/License. http://www.lexisnexis.com/hottopics/tncode/ Tenn. Code Ann. § 39-17-1307  (Copy w/ Cite)       Dad wants to know 1.  Can be it be concealed in the vehicle (not a HCP holder).  2.  Can be it be loaded.    For number 1.  I can't see a reason why not. For number 2, I told him I can't see a reason why not but I would ask to confirm.   So am I correct telling him that or not.
  8.   No, he didn't.  He should have gladly took the full Max sentence of 4 years that he believed in so much.
  9. Patient with Ebola-like symptoms in D.C.   http://www.cnn.com/video/data/2.0/video/us/2014/10/03/ath-patient-with-ebola-symptoms-in-dc.cnn.html   Patient has been to Nigeria.   Spelling correction thanks to Lumber Jack
  10. NBC cameraman has Ebola He's returning to U.S. for treatment http://www.cnn.com/?hpt=sitenav We just keep importing it. I believe if someone marketed it correctly we would import shit. Truth be told we probably do.
  11. If he hadn't been trying to get a selfie and or acting unprofessional as they put it with POTUS, nothing probably would have ever been known about him.  In short, the SS should have cleared the elevator for only POTUS and themselves.
  12.           New update, the Convicted felon, wasn't a convicted felon.  I love how the news just runs stories with out any fact checking.     Trying to get a source but Robin Meade on CNN just told it minutes ago.     Not finding a link to it yet, but like most changes they don't make as much of an effort to get the mistakes corrected as they do to get the first story published.

  14. Take your pick.   1) Evelyn and Jim: The gorillas that escaped, more than once, from the Los Angeles Zoo. 2) Nala: The lioness that escaped into Disney's backyard 3) Virginia: The wolf that escaped from the Los Angeles Zoo and may or may not have been recaptured. 4) The 170+ Rhesus monkeys that took over Long Island in the 1930s. 5) Ken Allen: The "Hairy Houdini" of the San Diego Zoo. 6) Nikica: The hippopotamus that wouldn't stay put. 7) The nine bison that ran loose in Oakland only to be coaxed back into their enclosure with bread. 8) Satara: The rhino that ran away from home after his mate left him for a younger rhino. 9) The penguin that escaped a Japanese aquarium. 10) And of course, the clever Bronx Zoo cobra.   http://www.cnn.com/2013/06/25/living/buzzfeed-cnn-escaped-zoo-animals/       BTW, today at work to a co work I said, it won't be long and they will be selling vaccines for both Ebola and Enterovirus D68.  He replied or they will give them to the people they like.  
  15. Remember back in April, I had the post warning that it was coming.
  16. They didn't have to make a public statement.   All they had to do was open a small restaurant serving allot of bacon and sausage.  Really have the smoke and favor in the air.  Selling products like Silver bullet and having Wilbur the pot belly pig running around as a mascot.  Perhaps if they have some open range a small pig nursery farm. I understand we have a shortage of young pigs to raise to make more bacon.  Just trying to combine that problem with this issue.
  17. Sure makes the Dooms day peppers appear more sane now.
  18. Yup, it wasn't wild in America but the day is getting closer and closer.
  19. I got one of those calls today and pressed 1 to talk to him   after he talked and talked and I acted like I agreed.  He started asking for my info and I said no.  finally when I told him I wasn't interested and never had been he said why did you stay on the phone.  I said I wanted to help run up their phone bill.
  20. told my wife when we have a kid, I could be a stay at home dad if she wanted.  I put it on the table anyways.
  21. Congrats.  I figure I have at least 25 years before I can think about doing that.
  22.   I wonder how that guy decided to become an Expert on rotten poultry. 
  23. That and the critics give them 1 star so the sheep won't watch them and many of the sheep would not understand them.   In general a bad review by a critic to me a probably a good movie.  Unless it is Sharknados. 
  24. None of us are pure bloods.  If nationalities were breeds of dogs, we would all be mutts.    Mutt - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia A mutt is a mongrel (a dog of unknown ancestry).
  25. OK great science discussions however Ithink we are off topic.  Refresher https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5-mWq5B6sU0
