Unfortunately true for most of the population.

I am the manager of a Computer Hardware company by the name of www.umart.com.au , it is an area I am very interested in, the conditions are good and all in all I am quite satisfied with my position (at the moment anyways)

Refrigeration Mechanic, now with qualifications.

Money sucks, but thats cause I've only recently finished my apprenticeship so I'm on award wage. Not that it gets much better.

But think of all the money you can make by selling people replacements for parts that aren't faulty in the first place :rofl:

Just stay off "A Current Affair" and "Today Tonight" is all :rofl:

My refrigeration is pretty much anything BUT domestic stuff. :rofl:

Commerical equipment and industrial plants mainly.

Slurpee machines, ice cream machines, cold rooms, freezer rooms, water chillers, air dryers, display cabinets, display fridges... Basically anything that gets cold and ISNT a damn domestic fridge or A/C.

PS - No, I will not look at your fridge which has

PPS - No, I will not install A/C in your house for you which you got cheap at for only and its a is that a good one?

    • Yeah, it's getting like that, my daughter is coming over on Thursday to help me remove the bonnet so I can install the Carbuilders underbonnet stuff,  I might get her to give me a hand and remove the hardtop, maybe, because on really hot days the detachable hardtop helps the aircon keep the interior cool, the heat just punches straight through to rag top I also don't have enough hair for the "wind in the hair" experience, so there is that....LOL
    • Could be falling edge/rising edge is set wrong. Are you getting sync errors?
    • On BMWs what I do because I'm more confident that I can't instantly crush the pinch welds and do thousands of USD in chassis damage is use a set of rubber jacking pads designed to protect the chassis/plastic adapter and raise a corner of the car, place the aforementioned 2x12 inch wooden planks under a tire, drop the car, then this normally gives me enough clearance to get to the front central jack point. If you don't need it to be a ramp it only needs to be 1-1.5 feet long. On my R33 I do not trust the pinch welds to tolerate any of this so I drive up on the ramps. Before then when I had to get a new floor jack that no longer cleared the front lip I removed it to get enough clearance to put the jack under it. Once you're on the ramps once you simply never let the car down to the ground. It lives on the ramps or on jack stands.
    • Nah. You need 2x taps for anything that you cannot pass the tap all the way through. And even then, there's a point in response to the above which I will come back to. The 2x taps are 1x tapered for starting, and 1x plug tap for working to the bottom of blind holes. That block's port is effectively a blind hole from the perspective of the tap. The tapered tap/tapered thread response. You don't ever leave a female hole tapered. They are supposed to be parallel, hence the wide section of a tapered tap being parallel, the existince of plug taps, etc. The male is tapered so that it will eventually get too fat for the female thread, and yes, there is some risk if the tapped length of the female hole doesn't offer enough threads, that it will not lock up very nicely. But you can always buzz off the extra length on the male thread, and the tape is very good at adding bulk to the joint.
    • Nice....looking forward to that update
