    Why not use the non polluting atomic? :LOL:

    Honda Recall - 3.5L main bearing problems

    Yes the fellow in the last video covers that. In a fire the rubber line burns up and then comes the fuel.

    Turning 316L breaking inserts

    Talk to your tool supplier or find someone else if they can't or won't help. Some cutting tool sales people live for these sort of issues.

    Honda Recall - 3.5L main bearing problems

    Sounds like something the insurance company should know about, that is asking for problems in a fire. I would suppose the coast guard has rules about that as well.

    Rogue Climatologists

    Remember the science was settled. Just like back when Fire, Earth, Air, and Water where considered the basic elements, and how if anyone called that wrong they likely were laughed at and ridiculed. :LOL:

    Honda Recall - 3.5L main bearing problems

    Serious? You can't see that in due time all of those examples would have destroyed the engines? No the failure was the belts on most of them not the whole engine. Diesels make black oil, oil change intervals? Manufactures say to extend the OCI. Oh and one of them is a failed engine because of...

    Honda Recall - 3.5L main bearing problems

    Sure here you go, and there are plenty more. The important thing is, why do this ? It becomes a huge gamble to use this as a cam shaft drive system. If you wish to use belts, dry ones are the best, they don't pollute the lubrication system. They are easier to change, and don't require an oil...

    Honda Recall - 3.5L main bearing problems

    And what does that get me? I will to the proper outfits. Topic of wet belts and lasting. Why not go to the ones that are in the trenches dealing with replacing them, and way before they are scheduled to need it. I enjoy the videos of all the chunks of wet belts ending up in the oil pick up...

    Honda Recall - 3.5L main bearing problems

    Not just Honda, so many other brands having the same issues. And the cause? Most all the causes are in plain site and no one can see it. :unsure:

    What really? I've been trying to convey this for years now.

    Drilling oversized and drilling undersized on Fanuc machine?

    If you need very close dimensions then use a different process to finish the holes.

    Honda Recall - 3.5L main bearing problems

    A fellow on youtube did a Toyota tear down of one of the problem engines. There was no sign of a debris related problem. That is why I doubt it for one. And two, what are the odd's that unrelated manufactures are all claiming that exact same problem. There is more than one thing that is the...

    Honda Recall - 3.5L main bearing problems

    In my opinion, the main problem for failures is cutting corners, the excuse I have read and heard is oil gallery debris. It seems those manufactures are too proud to ask for help from independent folks, like back in the 50's and 60's when the big 3 would call on people like Smokey Yunick, to...

    Best information ever

    This is some very good information. This guy is on the mark. And proves how most all science is now stuck in a box.

    What brass or bronze for water couplings?

    I just plan of getting a Hex or round pin of said material about 1 foot long. So brass is the better choice?

    Axle failure, thoughts

    And what did a hardness test say?

    What brass or bronze for water couplings?

    What ID number for either material to use? May need to make a fitting for small water supply PE pipe. I'm very familiar with 660 Bronze bearing material and know that would not be a good choice. Any advice is appreciated.

    Broken Steel Casting with crystalized structure -- Root Cause

    At first glance that almost looks like inclusions. So why use cast steel for a fastener? That part should be made from a solid bar not a casting.
