I got a new Samsung Dishwasher last month and had it installed with a Flood Defender stainless steel braided hose for the Hot water feed. I read through the Dishwasher instructions and they speicifically state that you should not use a Flood Safe Braided hose with no mention of why not! <br>
<br>
So I contacted Samsung Customer Service and they said the reason is to avoid water damage to my cabinets, and the Flood Defender hose had no impact on the dishwasher performance.<br>
<br>
This makes no sense to me as the the purpose of the valve in the Flood Defender hose is to stop a flood in the event of a hose break. <br>
<br>
Now what would make sense to me is that perhaps the valve could reduce the water pressure and minimize how well the the dishwasher performs. Wonder if any one has any experience with a flood safe braided hoses before I go through reinstalling it with a plain braided hose.

Yeah I used to do the same thing with product called Wood Life. But bad for human life .

Many painters in this area use Benjamin Moore Arborcoat solid stain for wood siding, for what its worth.

[QUOTE=acollett;200404] .But could jump across and it would start so thought the solinoid was bad. Put a new one on and still wont start with the key it will start if you jump it across.any suggestions.? [/QUOTE]

Most bad solenoids will make a rackete becasue they are too weak to pull in to the flywheel.

If you did not hear that racket the solenoid was probably good.

I would look at the switch next.

[QUOTE=DavidJo23;200121] I use oil analysis quite a bit in most of our tractors. I do a lot of oil changes well past 1000 hours. The tractors we use for tillage work usually get changed around 400-600 hours. We use a cheap generic 15w-40 oil that's about $6 a gallon. [/QUOTE]

How many months does it take you to put 400 hours on these Tractors?

I had a GTO muscle car many moons ago and the rear wheel drive with 400hp engine needed studded rear snows to make at all passable.<br>
<br>
Wondering if AWD or new winter tires have replaced need for studs don t see any more, do you ? <br>
<br>
[i]"Ten states prohibit studded snow tires: Alabama, Texas, Florida, Maryland (exception five mountain counties), Louisiana, Hawaii, Illinois, Minnesota, Mississippi and Wisconsin. ... Seven states allow unrestricted use of studded tires: Colorado, New Hampshire, North Carolina, Kentucky, New Mexico, Vermont and Wyoming."[/i]

Does anyone use studded tires anymore

My car has a 7 inch LED screen. I just saw an article that said a new 2021 Mercedes is going to have a 56 inch wide panel door to door LED screen. <br>

How big is too big? or is the whole width of the car the end goal?<br>

This fall I did some outside painting and found that the best thing to use was my Painters Tool. The edge was duller than a putty knife so it could loosen flaking paint without gouging. It was just the go to tool, the only thing I used for the entire job. A must have tool.

Sounds like it is not too hard to get at unlike today's transverse mounted auto engines. Hope it works out smooth.

Need more information as to how much property and major uses like loader need, drive length, barn stable use, mowing field vs finish, gardening etc.

If minimal requirements a Kubota BX is a great step up from a garden tractor, whereas a B or L series might be warranted. Once heard if you can turn it around on your lot it is NOT TOO BIG !!! ;-)

I was looking at the Kubota site and saw that in their competitive comps they compare their offering to Mahindra.<br>
<br>
Have not seen much in the way of Mahindra dealers the only one I know of went OOB couple years back and had a fledgling operation at best.<br>
<br>
Is Mahindra strong in any regions? Worth considering?<br>
<br>
Aside from that that is Kubota the better machine compared to Deere? I saw the Deere mid mower quick mount ride over an that looks great!<br>

I am considering buying a new John Deere 2032R. I am concerned that instead of using glow plugs this model uses an air intake heater. Is this totally new and maybe problematic or is it the new best idea that makes this model compelling?
